Chapter 10 Trial Training
"Xia Liu." Ling Bo said.

"Got it, you scored a goal, got it, you won, got it, I'll treat you to breakfast."

Ling Bo scratched his head in embarrassment. After the excitement passed, he realized that he had lost his composure just now.

"No, I want to say, what level is my current level?"

Xia Liu said: "Listen to the truth?"

Ling Bo nodded, Xia Liu thought for a while, and said, "Barely reach the level of junior high school students."

Ling Bo exclaimed in disbelief: "Junior high school student?"

Xia Liu washed off his filth, wrapped himself in a bath towel, laid Ge You on the sofa, and said, "Have you been hit? Do you feel that all your efforts for so many days have been wasted?"

"The level of junior high school students I'm talking about is the level in our country. I'm afraid the level of junior high school students here is not good enough."

"Do you know where the NBA is?"

Ling Bo nodded and said, "I know, the highest hall of basketball in the world, the gathering place of basketball elites from all over the world."

Xia Liu said: "Yes, actually I want to say, if it really doesn't work, let's give up."

Ling Bo is not afraid of being hit, not afraid of being called bad, but he can't do it until the end makes him give up.

Ling Bo was very serious, and said very seriously: "The world is uncertain, you and I are dark horses, and I will never give up."

Xia Liu said: "Okay, you are a dark horse, I want to sleep."

After Xia Liu went to bed, Ling Bo hadn't rested yet. He was cultivating his inner strength, and he knew there was no time to waste.

Despite the hard work, the mad sand is blown out and the gold is reached.

Ling Bo has always believed that gold will always shine.

The next day, Xia Liu and Ling Bo were on their way home from get out of class, and Xia Liu was always searching the trash.

Seeing this, Ling Bo was puzzled, pulled Xia Liu up and said, "Brother, tell me if you don't have money, we won't pick up trash."

Xia Liu gave Ling Bo a disdainful look, and handed Ling Bo the broken car tire he found in the trash.

"Take it back and wash it, it's useful."

"Oh!"

Ling Bo said that the world is uncertain, you and I are dark horses. Although Xia Liu didn't care about it on the surface, he still felt it in his heart, and was infected by this spirit of not giving up.

On the court, Xia Liu put all kinds of garbage he picked up on the court, forming a nine palace eight trigrams array between the two baskets.

"Start today, do obstacle dribbling exercises, you can treat them as defenders, and you can try to dribble around them with various movements."

"Today, my request is to dribble the ball from one end to the other end of the basket and make a successful layup. As for how to practice later, it is up to you to decide."

Ling Bo looked at the vast net made up of rubbish all over the floor, and really didn't know where to start.

From evening to late at night, Ling Bo tried n times, and every time he failed, he comforted himself that if he tried again, he would surely succeed.

Persevere, persevere, it will definitely work.

For nearly a month, under the guidance of Xia Liu, Ling Bo conducted various trainings, and his basketball skills improved very fast.

Xia Liu began to call Ling Bo a "masochist", and Xia Liu himself was the one who was abused every time, and now he felt a creepy feeling when he heard the phrase "come again".

During this period of time, Ling Bo's internal strength has also become more and more profound. In the last few days, he tried to use his internal strength to control the basketball. In the duel with Xia Liu, Ling Bo stopped eating hot pot. It was N times better at the beginning.

I originally thought that I would just keep training like this, wait until the draft starts, and then resign myself to fate. Anyway, no one pays attention to him. The reason is that because he has no foundation, has never participated in competitions, and has no reputation.

But things turned around. On June 6, Ling Bo received a call, a very unexpected call.

The person on the phone claimed to be the staff of the San Antonio Spurs. They saw Ling Bo's information on the website and wanted to invite him to San Antonio for a trial training.

Ling Bo agreed, as long as there is an opportunity, he should seize it, the result is not important, as long as he works hard.

"What, the Spurs?" Xia Liu was shocked when he found out.

"Yeah, they said they wanted to find a backup guard."

Xia Liu said exaggeratedly: "That's right, do you know what the Spurs mean? They reached the finals, and on June 6th they will have the final showdown with the Nets. Maybe they will be the championship team this year. "

Ling Bo asked suspiciously: "The championship team will take a fancy to me. Could it be a scam?"

Xia Liu thought for a moment, then analyzed: "Probably not. It is true that they are looking for a backup guard, but they value the influence of Chinese players in the NBA."

Xia Liu is right. Ever since Yao Ming joined the NBA, if you want to ask which team is the most popular this year, it is of course the Houston Rockets. Yao Ming has opened the door to the NBA for Chinese fans. Tens of millions of fans have joined. Let the ratings of the NBA skyrocket, and the Rockets are the first to bear the brunt.

The Spurs are the favorites to win the championship. They want to recruit a Chinese player to expand their influence. Of course, the strength of this Chinese player meets their requirements, that would be great.

"Then should I go?" Ling Bo asked.

"Go, of course."

"Oh, I was so nervous suddenly, what should I do where I am, what should I do when I see the team staff, I have no experience."

Xia Liu slapped his forehead, brother, how did you survive in the country of rice all these years by yourself.

"I'll go with you."

"Haha, I knew you wouldn't ignore me."

"Go, don't disgust me."

On June 6, Ling Bo and Xia Liu bought a ticket to San Antonio.

This is Lingbo's first time flying in a plane after crossing. This kind of high-altitude flight is safe and comfortable, and it is much faster than using light work by yourself.

Draft players are invited to trial training, and the team has arranged accommodation and meals. Three-star hotels are not high-end, but they are already very good for a small-market team like the Spurs.

The next day, the two of Ling Bo came to the Spurs training hall. On the floor of the arena, there was a huge silver and black spear, which was the team logo of the Spurs. In 1999, rookies Duncan and the Admiral teamed up to help the Spurs win the first championship in team history. The Spurs have been one of the strong teams in the West in recent years.

Last night, Ling Bo supplemented the information about the Spurs. Judging from their lineup and recent record, Ling Bo suddenly felt guilty. His current level is obviously not suitable for others.

Limbo was received by a staff member of the Spurs named Ahmed Yuli.

"Ling, you are welcome. Are you ready for the San Antonio Spurs' trial training?"

Ahmad looked proud when he mentioned the San Antonio Spurs.

"Yes, I'm ready."

There are not many people in the training hall. There are a few staff members holding question boards and two young people in ball uniforms.

Not much to say, at the beginning of the trial training, Ahmed first let Ling Bo show his physical fitness. An oriental man with toned muscles satisfied the staff. The first impression of Ling Bo was not bad.

The next step is the height test. Without light work, Ling Bo's jumping ability can only be considered average, and it is still a bit difficult to touch the basket.

In the next stretch, Lingbo performed mediocre in terms of speed.

Ahmed patted Ling Bo on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Ling, that's the end of the basic test. Now we need you to start a one-on-one confrontation with a rookie player. I hope you will perform well."

Ling Bo nodded in agreement. His opponent was also a player participating in the draft this year, named Leonard Barbosa, a professional player of the Palmeiras club basketball team.

You must know that this is not a half-baked player like Xia Liu, this may be a one-on-one match that will determine his own destiny, Ling Bo felt unprecedented pressure.

　I have something to do at night, so I updated it in advance.
