Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 36 Los Angeles at 4 o'clock!
Yuan Qingshan yawned and just fell asleep.

Yuan Qingshan was woken up by the sound of keys twisting. He looked at the wall clock and then at the entrance. It should be that Downs came back from playing around.

Sure enough, Downs turned around and closed the door, glanced inside, and asked with a smile, "I thought you were already asleep."

Yuan Qingshan said in his heart that he was not woken up by you.

Downs quickly took off his clothes, then slid into the bathroom naked.

Wow, the shower was turned on, and the water line fell down.

Yuan Qingshan wondered: "Didn't you take a shower before going out, why do you still need to take a shower?"

Downs' voice came from the bathroom: "The important parts need to be cleaned again, oops, I told you, but you don't understand!"

"Who wants to listen to your bad things." Yuan Qingshan said casually, this world is like this, everyone has their own secrets.

The dormitory provided by the University of Kentucky for the basketball team is very high-end. There is not only a shower in the bathroom, but also a large acrylic bathtub.

Although these NCAA players are young, but like Towns, they are already famous stars in the United States, so of course they should be given star-level treatment.

After tossing around for a while, Downs came out and found that Yuan Qingshan had fallen asleep again, so he tiptoed back to his bed, took out his mobile phone, and looked at the message under the covers, giggling non-stop.

I didn't know what time it was the next day, anyway, before dawn, Yuan Qingshan heard Tang Si screaming strangely in the dormitory.

"Xiaoshan, get up soon, let's go to training."

Yuan Qingshan struggled and turned over: "What time is it, what's the hurry?"

"You're still sleeping, the finals are less than a month away, you don't want to participate in the draft, don't you want to enter the NBA?" Towns yelled.

draft.

NBA.

These two words directly hit the nerves, making Yuan Qingshan wake up all of a sudden, yes, his current background is too poor, there are too few opportunities, and every inch of time is precious, so don't waste time.

After waking up completely, Yuan Qingshan immediately had a question, why is Downs, who is usually deader than himself sleeping, so hardworking tonight?
After a lot of coercion and temptation, Downs finally told the truth and dragged Yuan Qingshan to training. This was the task assigned to him by Quincy's assistant coach.

Yuan Qingshan was a little moved. He didn't expect that the assistant coach who spoke humorously but was strict in his work paid so much attention to him.

After speaking, Towns also began to complain: "I slept well, and I was woken up by Quincy's assistant coach's call. Look, it's still dark outside."

Yuan Qingshan said decently while putting on his clothes: "Have you ever seen Los Angeles at 4 o'clock in the morning?"

Downs nodded helplessly: "Okay, come on!" Then he ran to wash up obediently.

Los Angeles at 4am?
A reporter once asked Kobe: "Why are you so successful?"

Kobe asked back: "Have you seen Los Angeles at 4 in the morning? I have seen Los Angeles at 4 in the morning every day."

This sentence has already inspired countless people with basketball dreams. Kobe, who has top talent, can still start practicing at 4 o'clock in the morning every day. What reason do you have for not working hard?
When Yuan Qingshan and Tang Si ran out of the dormitory, the campus was of course empty, the sky above was dark, only a few stars shone brightly.

When they came to Court No. [-], Downs opened the door with a clatter, turned on the light, and the yellow wooden floor reflected soft light.

Yuan Qingshan looked at the familiar scene. It was here that he received the conquest mission for the first time, and then burst out the purple "rebound beast" skill from Downs.

Downs rolled a cart out of the warehouse just as Coach Quincy arrived.

Quincy looked at Downs and Yuan Qingshan with satisfaction, and beckoned them to him.

Quincy: "Qingshan, you performed very well in the last game, but it is only compared with you before. If you want to compare with other players, it seems that it is not enough."

Yuan Qingshan scored 7 points, 12 assists, 12 rebounds, 2 steals, and 3 blocks.

Russell had 31 points, 9 assists, 7 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block.

In such a comparison, it can be said that each has its own merits, but in terms of key data such as scoring, there are too many differences.

Assistant coach Quincy continued: "The reason why I let Towns pull you here is because I don't want your excellent sense of the ball and the overall situation to be buried. You should also know that it is impossible to participate in the election with your current state, right?"

Yuan Qingshan didn't answer right away. Assistant coach Quincy said that he was right. His performance last night was indeed amazing compared to the past, but compared with other NCAA players, especially those stars, it was really difficult to be elegant.

12 assists and 12 rebounds are still impressive, but only 7 points are too embarrassing.

It is simply atypical data, and the data of this game is averaged out of more than 30 games in the season, and his average data is still ugly, and most of the statistical items are still not even averaged per game.

Assistant coach Quincy continued: "But don't be discouraged. You don't score high, but you have done very well in other areas. I can tell you responsibly that as a coach, I will definitely like players like you very much."

Towns hastily interjected: "Then Xiao Shan may participate in the draft?"

Quincy said: "Your strengths and weaknesses are very obvious. In terms of shooting, do you have the confidence to improve in the short term?"

Yuan Qingshan shook his head, he is not equipped with a star card that is good at shooting, and the 4 consecutive purple skills have nothing to do with shooting, it is really difficult to practice shooting in a short time.

Quincy nodded: "Since the disadvantages cannot be made up, you must give full play to your advantages. The current level is not enough, and you need to increase your efforts to be eye-catching enough!"

Quincy is right, you have to be bright enough to impress others.

The draft picks of NBA teams are very expensive, and even the second round can sell for millions of dollars. Who would bet millions on a fringe player with no bright spots?

Even if they are selected, they will not be cultivated. There are too many young talented players in weak teams, and there are limited opportunities to play and practice, let alone strong teams. Few people can achieve the rotation of Kerr in the Warriors. Moreover, even Kerr has been bombarded by experts and the media.

Thinking of this, a sharp face appeared in Yuan Qingshan's mind, and Kobe's promise to pick himself in the second round also appeared in his ears again.

But Yuan Qingshan just didn't want to join the Lakers because of this relationship.

Towns was doing strength training according to Quincy's guidance. Yuan Qingshan shot by himself, and made a three-pointer. The trajectory was so oblique that it didn't even touch the basket.

Yuan Qingshan shook his hand angrily.

Entering March, every game will be a battle of life and death.

Yuan Qingshan knew that this was his last chance to hit the NBA. Now that it was impossible to improve his average per game, he had to be like Quincy said, to play in a certain way, to make people's eyes shine and leave a deep impression.

The sound of basketballs hitting the floor was incessant. In Los Angeles at four o'clock in the morning, the bright lights of Hall [-] were like a cluster of burning fires in the cold night.
