The Overlord of Basketball: 2K Possession

Chapter 14 New Season

Not to mention, Steve Lavin's words, although a bit deceptive, can really improve training enthusiasm.

Although what Steve Lavin said may not be credible, it is always an opportunity, isn't it?
Of course, everyone has a general understanding of who can be in the starting lineup and who can only be a substitute.

In September, the training of the Bruins mainly focused on rehearsing tactics, playing training games from time to time.

It's just that a big event happened this month. Of course, the so-called big event is only for Chen Mo.

At the Busan Asian Games, the Huaguo team encountered black for 30 seconds, and the almost won champion flew away.

This year's domestic fans are really unfortunate. First, they were shaved in the World Cup, and then the men's basketball team suffered a disastrous defeat in the Asian Games.

It was around this time that Bangzi began to blow wildly at He Shengzhen, a man who defeated Yao Ming.

Since Yao Ming can become the No. [-] pick in the NBA, why can't He Shengzhen?
Back to the Asian Games again, when the game lasted only 30 seconds, the Huaguo team led by 90 points with 83:7.

With a seven-point lead in 30 seconds, unless McGrady is replaced, it is impossible to lose.

Seeing that the championship was won, Liu Yudong's careless ball was intercepted by the South Korean team and scored by the opponent.

Next, even the serve was interrupted, and the South Korean team scored three points, and the score between the two sides came to 90:88, only two points away.

There is not much time left in the game, and the Hua Guo team still has a chance to kill the game.

Hu Weidong got two free throws, as long as he made the free throws, he was basically the champion, but he missed both free throws, giving the South Korean team a last chance.

The South Korean team scored a layup and tied the score, and the two sides entered overtime.

The 30-second time is reversed by 7 points, and it is not surprising that they will lose in overtime.

This game is another old problem of the Hua Guo team, unable to make a shot at the critical moment, unable to hold the ball.

In addition, Chen Mo feels that the mentality of some veteran players has changed, especially Yao Ming who went to the NBA as the No. [-] pick.

You know, because of the system, many people have no chance to go to the NBA, and Wang Zhizhi was even removed from the national team.

But now Yao Ming is not only going to play in the NBA, but has also become the No. [-] pick. It is impossible to say that everyone's psychology has not changed.

What's more, when Yao Ming is in charge of the national team in the future, a group of old people will leave the national team.

Why?Naturally, it is to establish Yao Ming's absolute core position, so that no one can suppress him with seniority.

Regarding the national team, Chen Mo didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being. Of course, it was not his turn to take care of it.

Among other things, as a player outside the system, it is not easy for him to enter the national team.

After all, there are only a few places in the national team, and if you occupy one, the others will lose one.

In addition, the relationship within the system is intricate, and there are not enough quotas for our own people, let alone outsiders.

The new NCAA season will start in November. Before that, there will be four warm-up games.

The UCLA Bruins' warm-up match opponents have also been determined. They will play two games against Virginia Union University and Missouri respectively.

Virginia Union University and the University of Missouri are completely different things, one is a second-tier league and the other is a first-tier league.

The most famous NBA star at Virginia Union University should be Ben Wallace who is now playing for the Pistons.

It's just that there is no known player in the University of Virginia Union University today.

The reason why UCLA picked such an opponent was purely to warm up and give freshmen confidence.

And similar to Virginia Union University, the reason why they are willing to be brushed by others is mainly because the game against the first-tier league can give them a good income.

The warm-up match against the University of Missouri was to resolve a grievance.

In last year's Elite Eight, UCLA was ruthlessly eliminated by the University of Missouri.

You know, last year, UCLA, which had Gadzuric, Kapono, and Matt Barnes, had the best chance of reaching the semi-finals or even the finals in recent years.

So, this time it's a battle of revenge.

Of course, this is a good way to say it, but not a good way to say it, it is a competition for gimmicks.

In fact, against the University of Missouri, UCLA is very difficult.

The top star in the team and the defensive champion left, only Kapono struggled to support.

As for the University of Missouri, although Karim Rush graduated, several main players in the team stayed.

Including Arthur Johnson, Richie Poulding, and Gilbert Clarence, the lineup remains pretty good.

In fact, earlier, Steve LaVine refused to arrange for the school to arrange this game.

After all, it's just a warm-up match, so it's necessary to make it so big?It's purely about putting pressure on the players.

It's just that the school rejected Steve Lavin's suggestion. In recent years, the team's performance has been poor, and even tickets are hard to sell. If they don't come up with some gimmicks, who will watch it?

The first game is on October 10st.

After all, it was the team's first game of the new season, and the fans were quite strong, with more than half of the fans present.

You know, this is just a warm-up match, and it is still against a second-tier league team.

"UCLA, UCLA..."

Before the game started, there was a roar of mountains and tsunami in the player tunnel, which startled Chen Mo.

Although he has also been to the gymnasium, but only to watch the game, this is the first time he appeared as a contestant.

"Rookies, how do you feel?"

Seeing the nervousness of Hollins, Ryan and others, Kapono and other veteran players smiled maliciously, seeming to enjoy this feeling.

"Are we really going to start?" Hollins was really a little flustered. For the first show, he actually wanted to let a group of rookies start.

DiJon Thompson laughed: "It's gotta go through, isn't it?"

"Chen, how do you feel?"

As a rookie, Chen Mo is naturally one of the starters, and as the main force, his task today is very important.

Once the game started, and the others couldn't open up the situation, he could only rely on him.

"well enough!"

Of course Chen Mo was in a panic. It was the first time in his two lives that he was playing a formal game, so how could it be possible not to panic.

But these bastards were obviously here to see his jokes, so how could he show his timidity.

Sure enough, seeing Chen Mo's calm expression, Kapono and the others were very bored.

"The NBA has ushered in his No. [-] pick in China, and today we also have our own No. [-] pick!
Welcome Mo Chen..."

As the DJ's voice sounded, Chen Mo was the second to last to step onto the court, and the arena suddenly roared and roared.

The new season is about to start, and as the first champion in an overseas league, the fans are looking forward to Yao Ming.

No, when they heard that Chen Mo and Yao Ming were also from China, the fans at the scene showed great respect and cheered continuously.

DJ's voice didn't end: "As far as I know, Chen should be called by this name. He has already entered the team's starting lineup. Maybe we can have another Asian champion here."

Chen Mo was a little speechless, now because of Yao Ming, you praise me so much, in a few days, don't criticize me.

Yao Ming's first show, this is Chen Mo but I remember it clearly, it was quite bad.

In order to participate in the Asian Games, I didn't come to the United States to participate in the training camp early, and I didn't even play in the preseason. How could I be in a good state.

That is to say, Yao Ming, who is resilient enough and has met a good coach, otherwise what might happen.
