I really play basketball

Chapter 42: The premise is: the champion sign!
The game is over.

The Duke fans in the Cameron Indoor Arena were stunned, and all the audience in front of the TV were stunned.
Even Tony Guy and Stephen Smith in the commentary booth were dumbfounded.

"This is the end?"

"Long Beach won?"

"Duke Blue Devils, two consecutive NCAA defending champions, just got sunk like this?"

Then, they began to look back at the decisive final moments of the game, only to find out——

There is a player who dominated the final moments of the game.

"Since Long Beach fell behind by three points in the last 3 minutes, Stalin scored 8 points and directly led the team to sink Duke, the invincible battleship that people call it!"

"The dark horse Long Beach is still continuing their wild journey, and the unbeaten victory in the preseason so far has not changed!"

Tony Gay controlled the field, and Stephen Smith had only one sentence left: "Stalin, you are so tough!"

Henry Abbott turned off the TV. He decided that from now on, he would never watch Lin Xing's game again, not even a single game!

In the small plateau city where Utah Valley Community College is located, Ma Jian watched the game.

Or to be precise, he watched Lin Xing's 8 games at Long Beach.

Unlike ordinary people, the better Lin Xing performed, the happier he was.

The reason is that Lin Xing's outstanding performance just shows one point——

It is Lin Xing who is far behind him, not other players in the NCAA Division I.

This idea gave Ma Jian more confidence.

He began to imagine that after finishing his studies, he would go to the NCAA next year to make a big splash.

Boston, Chris Ford took the time to watch such a game.

After watching the game, he suddenly had an urge: How about we do poorly this season?
His impulsiveness was quickly stopped by the precarious position, but for Lin Xing, he recognized it.

"As far as this body is concerned, the pervert can't be more perverted. More importantly, Louis' information shows that he is only 17 years old, too young, really too young!"

Oakland, hoping that seeing is believing, old Nelson pulled his son and his assistant who looked like Popovich to watch the game.

The evaluation of the assistant who looks like Popovich is: "The physical fitness is indeed strong enough, but unfortunately, he is an East Asian."

Little Nelson was stunned: "East Asians? What happened to East Asians?"

"The bodies of East Asians are generally weak. Although he is a special case, the attribute of endurance is definitely not strong. If the fight continues like this, injuries will inevitably occur."

Hearing this, Old Nelson nodded, agreeing very much.

"In contrast, I prefer Grant Hill on the opposite side. He has an elegant style of play and strong plasticity..."

……

Back at the scene of the game, Lin Xing knew that the game would attract a lot of attention.

He also knew that after this victory, all the public opinion disputes would go away from him.

Emphasize that it is all of them!Including clowns like Henry Abbott.

"Next, you can improve yourself with peace of mind, prepare for the regular season, prepare for the championship in the league, and prepare for the crazy three..."

Hooking Byron Russell's shoulder, Lin Xing walked to the sidelines.

This battle also made him understand another truth, namely: teammates are also very important in basketball games.

Let's just say that in this game, if it wasn't for Lucios Harris to sustain the middle of the game, if it wasn't for the last moment, Russell defended a key defense and a key steal.

It's really hard to say what the outcome of this game will be.

No, Lin Xing is sure that without Lucios, this game would be lost.

Without Russell's key defense, there is a high probability that the game will be won in overtime.

Teammates are very important, but at the same time, teammates are not so interesting.

Simply put, Russell's excellent help defense seems to be the result of honing in the past two seasons.

But his single defense is still a bit lacking, Lin Xing felt that he had to practice hard.

The biggest problem is the inside line, Tavor is too soft...

"The inside line is already a heart disease. Fortunately, there are not many perverted inside lines in this year's NCAA."

If you put it in the last season, Shaquille O'Neal of Louisiana State University, Alonzo Mourning of Georgetown University, and even the opponent in this game, the former core of Duke University Christian Laettner.

Facing these perverts, the insiders would be blown into scum, no matter how hard Lin Xing worked on the outside, it would be of no avail.

Who made the current Lin Xing still be Ben Simmons?

Walking to the sidelines, Lin Xing saw Grant Hill in the bench area on the other side, hesitated for a moment, and finally leaned over.

"It's a pleasure to play against you, Grant!"

Grant Hill is also an old gentleman. If you have to find a well-mannered basketball player, it must be him.

How far is gentleman Grant Hill?

His mother is Hillary's college roommate, and he has received a very high-quality education since he was a child, so good that he can play the piano.

When everyone was humiliating, only he, in the 95 All-Star Game, gave up wearing the No. 33 jersey and changed to No. 35 to pay tribute to Scottie Pippen, who also wore the No. 33 jersey.

Communicating with such a gentleman, the result is of course extremely friendly.

"Me too, although we lost, it was a really good game..."

Is it a great game?Lin Xing thinks so too.

Just look at the system to see how good this game is.

Before the game, there were only more than 5500 blood points in the system. After the game, it soared to 6000 points.

I have to say that Grant Hill has enough cafes.

"It's still 4000 points away, and you can upgrade again."

"It doesn't look like much, but it's actually a lot."

"The road to upgrade is long..."

On the other side, the unknown head coach Seth Greenberg is also communicating with the famous Coach K.

Coach K is very "humble": "Your players are great, they played very well, so you won this game, you deserve it."

Greenberg just wanted to roll his eyes, of course he could hear what Old K meant.

What old K meant, didn't he mean: you can win, all depends on your players?

Greenberg thought for a while, and replied directly: "Thank you, Mike, but if it were me, I would feel sorry for the Duke players. They are really good. They are only a few hundred million points away from the final victory..."

Old K raised his eyebrows on the spot, thinking: This young man is interesting!
"Okay, Seth, mad goodbye?"

Greenberg was firm: "Crazy goodbye!"

……

With a win over Duke, Long Beach deserved the most hype.

And it is true——

"Sports Illustrated": "The dark horse is running wild, the NCAA in the new season is already incomprehensible?"

"USA Today": "The outbreak of a yellow man, Stalin has become an NCAA supernova!"

"Yahoo Sports": "The preseason was a huge upset, and Duke, who has won two consecutive NCAA championships, has an opponent!"

Different from the past, in the past, even if the Long Beach campus was highly touted, the touted media were only local newspapers with large circulation such as the Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle or Boston Herald.

This time, Sports Illustrated, the most authoritative media in the NCAA, joined the ranks of touting Long Beach and Lin Xing.

The latest issue of Sports Illustrated also added Lin Xing's name to the latest draft prediction list.

"1993 draft, Stalin, projected pick, fifth place, team, Sacramento Kings.

Through this wave of 8 consecutive victories in the preseason, Stalin has fully proved himself. He is the No. [-] supernova in the NCAA this season, and the biggest surprise of the NCAA this season.

His style of play is explosive and his physical fitness is extremely outstanding. He is only 17 years old, which also means that his prospects are extremely bright.

For the Sacramento Kings, Sbert Webb was too short and his defense was too bad. They needed a point guard with outstanding defense, and Stalin happened to be a point guard with excellent defense.

If the Kings choose Stalin, he will be the representative of Sacramento, and together with Mitch Richmond, he will form a brand-new top two-gun combination in the NBA..."

Lin Xing looked at the Sports Illustrated and said, "The king? It's not impossible, but the premise is that they have to get the number one lottery..."
