Basketball Dragon

Chapter 25

Eddie had already gone back to continue his date, so Li Hai took Xia Weiliang out and ran along the side of the road with her, passing through one bustling street after another.

"Stop, stop...I can't do it anymore, I haven't been exercising systematically for a while." Xia Weiliang cried out, her face already flushed a little.

Li Hai stopped and looked at her with a gentle smile, giving people a different feeling from before.

"Oh, I need to call them." Xia Weiliang startled, "You dragged me away just like that, be careful if someone calls the police."

"Didn't you say you were bullied?"

It was the first time Xia Weiliang saw the cunning on Li Hai's face, she was flustered and lowered her head, "I'm bored, Percy has been to the world of two with someone again..."

"Then let's live a two-person world, okay?" Li Hai raised Xia Weiliang's chin, and pressed his lips lightly.

It's not that Li Hai doesn't know how to pursue girls, on the contrary, he has a knack for such yellow-haired girls.

He took Xia Weiliang to fun places on the street to watch the night scene until late at night.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Hai looked at the beautiful girl beside him, and gently stroked her hair, "Wake up, we have to go back to school."

Xia Weiliang opened her eyes, and immediately buried her head in the quilt in embarrassment, "Li Hai, I didn't expect you to be a villain."

"Haha, it's too late now." Li Hai hugged Xia Weiliang into his arms, and said seriously, "Wei Liang, be my girlfriend, I like you very much, and I will definitely treat you well."

Xia Weiliang nodded lightly, with a bit of sweetness on her face.

Soon, Xia Weiliang's figure appeared in the school's basketball hall, quietly declaring his sovereignty.

Without any emotional entanglement, Li Hai only felt refreshed, and he didn't feel tired even after extra training.

The Orangemen of Syracuse University also once again entered March Madness with excellent results.

Li Hai became the main force of Syracuse University and was also reported by the domestic media. Although the Internet was not yet extremely developed at this time, it brought him a lot of popularity. There were also Chinese people in New York who came to support his competition. .

As Li Hai's fame grew, some agents approached him, wanting to sign him before he participated in the draft, but he hadn't made up his mind yet, and the only agents who came to him were small agents, which could not help him much. .

His data in the NCAA regular season is 15.6 points, 7.9 rebounds and 6 assists per game. Gao, the result was also unsuccessful. Fortunately, the Dallas Mavericks signed him with a one-year minimum salary contract.

He is Chinese, not yet 2 meters tall, and his prospects are not optimistic.

If he wants to score points, he can actually reach an average of 20 points per game. However, Coach Boyhan’s requirement for him is not to score first. He is also the type who prefers to pursue victory. There are McNamara and Warrick in the team. To score, he also allocated part of his energy to other places.

"Lee, let me introduce you, this is my buddy."

"Holt, it's my cousin, we're not just buddies."

Two days before the final stage, Eddie's distant cousin Bruce Baker treated them to coffee.

Baker was not much older than them, dressed in a slouchy suit, and spoke quickly.

"Brother, although I am a rookie agent, I am the most suitable agent for you. Maybe you, like many young players, think that you can get a high salary by signing a well-known agent, but this is not the case."

"Those well-known agents have a lot of players under their hands, and they won't spend much time on a rookie like you, but I'm different, we are all in the initial stage, our goals are the same, and I still have the company's channels. "

"As long as you are Holt's good buddy, I will do my best to plan for you."

Baker used to be a broker assistant for the well-known economic company CAA. Now that he has the qualifications to sign the contract, he is also full of energy.

Li Hai didn't agree clearly, but because of Eddie's relationship, Baker became his preferred choice.

For now, what he has to consider is the game.

Syracuse University's first opponent is Brigham Young University. Unlike most of the opponents it has encountered before, Brigham Young University is an inside-oriented team.

Their Brazilian center Rafael Arauyo has a lot of strength, and it is difficult to limit the defender's small hook. Scoring 20 plus 10 data is as simple as eating and drinking.

On March 3, Syracuse University embarked on the battlefield of March Madness.

Gerry McNamara at No. 1, Billy Aldrin at No. 2, Lehi at No. 3, Hakeem Warrick at No. 4, and Craig Firth at No. 5.

Due to the speed of the ball, it was always Warrick who jumped the ball at Syracuse University. This time, he put the ball into the hands of his teammates again, and Syracuse University took the lead in attacking.

McNamara dribbled the ball to the front court and handed it to Li Hai, and then started running.

Brigham Young University's second scorer Mark Bigelow was defending Li Hai. He was an excellent shooter, but his defensive ability could only be described as mediocre. Li Hai threw people away with one step and held the ball firmly near the free throw line. hit.

He raised his right hand to signal to his teammates and the audience that Syracuse University is coming.

Before the start of the game, the commentators, as usual, were not optimistic about them, just like last year.

Last year they said that Syracuse University could not go very far with Anthony alone, and this year they said that without Anthony, Syracuse University is just here to play soy sauce, and the results of the regular season are nothing, just like last year , There is still no way to meet a stronger team such as the University of Connecticut.

Li Hai wants to lead the team to play a wonderful game and tell those idiots that they don't know anything.

Brigham Young University’s offensive tactics are also very clear. They passed the ball to the inside smoothly through two or three backhands. Syracuse University’s inside line has height, but its strength is somewhat insufficient. The guy who is a floor runner has nothing to do, he is completely squeezed and can't even jump.

Just when Arauyo was about to make a small hook, a hand cut over fiercely.

The opponent was powerful but slow-moving. Li Hai grasped this point, and when Arauyo was half-turning around, he pinched him very quickly.

After stealing the ball, Li Hai launched a fast break.

Facing the defender who rushed forward, he flicked the ball and it was thrown into McNamara's hands.

McNamara went up and down and hit a three-pointer.

The fast break ends with a three-pointer. McNamara's confidence is not average, and he also has this offensive power. If the defense or organization is better, Syracuse University's strength will be improved to a higher level.

But their current strength is enough to face.
