I really play basketball

Chapter 36 Bobby Hurley
Henry Abbott took it for granted. As soon as he said this, he immediately refuted it.

There are direct ones, like ESPN's Kevin Pelton:

"The Stalin vs. Penny battle was over long ago when Long Beach beat Tennessee. Henry Abbott is like a hyena holding on. He should check his brains."

Someone with a hidden knife in his words, such as Kevin Ding of the Long Beach Chronicle:
"The player born for abuse led his team to 7 consecutive victories, and the player born for big scenes led his team to 4 wins and 3 losses..."

There are also those who put a long line to catch big fish, such as the NBC commentator Stephen Smith who surrendered to the enemy:

"Facing the defending champion Duke University, which has also maintained a complete victory this season, Long Beach, as a dark horse, is not favored. Everyone thinks they have lost, but what if they win?"

What if Long Beach wins?

Then the Long Beach branch school can't just be a master of food abuse, they will also be a strong team killer.

What Henry Abbott has always insisted on is not valid.

With a slap, a huge slap will hit his face.

Moreover, this huge slap is still his own.

The last time he was slapped in the face, Henry Abbott disappeared for almost two weeks.

Being slapped in the face again this time, Henry Abbott may have to hear about it for two months.

In fact, watching the discussions of these media experts, Lin Xing felt:

He is like the future Arjan, Henry Abbott is like the well-known James Skip Bayless, Kevin Ding is the local reporter who supports him, Kevin Pelton is the national reporter who supports him, and Stephen Smith is the commentator who is convinced by him.

In the end, John Bayless is like Brian Windhorst, Arjan's official reporter.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing suddenly realized: "Hey, where is John? Why did this guy disappear during this time?"

John Bayless disappeared, but Lin Xing was only puzzled for a moment.

After all, he and John Bayless had a mediocre personal relationship, they just fought side by side some time ago.

As for why they fought side by side, it was still John Bayless' fault.

Without this guy's blowing, Lin Xing would not have been involved in a storm of public opinion.

So, even if there is a personal relationship, it is still a personal relationship between teeth.

……

The day before the game, the Long Beach branch departed from Long Beach Airport and went straight to Durham International Airport.

As far as North Carolina is concerned, it is also the hottest area in the NCAA.

Just in the three cities surrounding Durham International Airport, Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, there are three well-known universities in the United States.

They are North Carolina State University in Raleigh, Duke University in Durham and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

The Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Tar Heels are both top teams in the NCAA. The remaining North Carolina State Wolfpack is indeed a bit worse in comparison, but that is just a comparison of the results of Duke and North Carolina.

If you take it out alone, it is also a member of the ACC League, the top NCAA league. The team history has also played for famous players such as Tom Gugliotta, Vinnie Del Negro, and Nate McMillan.

This time Long Beach will not only play against Duke, but also against the North Carolina State University Wolfpack.

In addition, they will also play against Wake Forest University, which is also located in North Carolina.

Therefore, this is a three-way schedule, back-to-back consecutively, which is a bit like the NBA.

But the difference is that these three games are played separately, and the interval between them is like two or three days, so the real schedule is not close.

On the contrary, wandering in this corner of North Carolina for such a long period of time, the training time was greatly reduced.

Byron Russell, who has been pulled by Lin Xing to strengthen the cross step recently, was very happy, and he even hummed a song.

"La la la la la la la la la la la la……"

After getting off the plane and getting on the bus, Lin Xing listened to Russell humming an extremely simple melody in the back seat.

Thinking: This guy is not out of his mind, why is his IQ getting lower and lower?

Shaking his head, ignoring him, Lin Xing's mind was full of thoughts: He still has to fight Wake Forest, facing Deng Dai, can he win this game?
After thinking about it for a long time, I did some calculations on the bus: the No. 97 pick in 97 went to the NBA after finishing four years of college, so starting from 4, we moved forward by [-] years.

Depend on!Deng Dai hasn't entered Wake Forest yet, so he thought about it for a long time...

"Wake Forest without Deng Dai, wouldn't it be a big fish? With this three-game streak, the intensity of one game is enough."

Lin Xing shook his head, and started to think: Tomorrow, he will fight Hill, can he beat it?

To be honest, he had no idea.

Grant Hill's strength must be strong. If you compare it with yourself, Lin Xing's advantage may only be defense.

With Hill having the fastest first step, Lin Xing only has a single defense of 90. Whether he can play a role is still unknown.

In Lin Xing's view, this battle against Duke is basically a battle between him and Hill.

He wins, Long Beach wins,

If he loses, Long Beach loses.

What Byron Russell, what Lucios Harris, what NCAA second point guard Bobby Hurley, and what Cherokee Parks.

No matter how much you blow, it will not affect the outcome of the game.

That night, the Long Beach campus arrived in Durham after a long journey and stayed in a local hotel.

The next day, at the Cameron Indoor Arena, Lin Xing met the Duke Blue Devils, which had won two consecutive championships.

Mike Krzyzewski, also known as Coach K, is the head coach of this Duke Blue Devils team.

Sometimes, whether a team is strong or not depends not only on the players, but also on the coach.

Coach K, who has led the team to two consecutive championships in the past two seasons, is in charge, which is why public opinion is extremely optimistic about Duke University.

Conversely, the little-known Seth Greenberg is the reason why public opinion is not optimistic about the Long Beach campus.

Of course, as a player, Lin Xing just stared at Coach K curiously for a while. He must be more concerned about Hill.

Lin Xing didn't know that there was a resentful but firm gaze staring at him in the corner.

After Christian Laettner went to the NCAA with the title of the only college student on the Dream Team, there are questions about who the leader of this Duke University is.

Some thought it was Grant Hill, but others thought it was Bobby Hurley.

Last season, Bobby Hurley averaged 13.2 points, 7.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game.

At the end of the whole Crazy Three, he was considered to be the point guard second only to Penny, which is the origin of the so-called NCAA second point guard.

During the battle between Lin Xing and Penny, Hurley was involved several times.

But they all appeared as units of measurement. For example, if Stalin wanted to touch a china penny, he first touched Bobby Hurley.

Or: I don't know how many Hurleys are worse than Penny...

This made Hurley very unhappy, and he didn't think he was any worse than Penny.

Pence was just a stinky Final Eight, and he was a champion, a two-time NCAA champion.

The reason why his data is much worse than Penny is because the core of Duke is not him, but Laettner.

This season, Coach K has finally established his core position, and his statistics have skyrocketed. So far this season, he has averaged 18 points and 8.2 assists per game.

Judging from the data, Hurley does still have some gaps with Lin Xing and Penny.

But Hurley still has a reason. Duke plays team basketball. Although he is the core, he cannot completely control the ball like Lin Xing or Penny. The gap is reflected in this way.

Lin Xing didn't know that when he aimed at Hill, Bobby Hurley also aimed at him.

Before the game, Seth Greenberg had no special arrangements, and Lin Xing's opponent was Bobby Hurley.

As for Hill, it is naturally handed over to Byron Russell.
