Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 47 Merry Christmas ([-])

Ye Feng's own level of playing 2K series can be considered above average, but he can't compare with a "beast" like Westbrook at all. At this moment, he didn't go up to seek abuse by himself, and let Westbrook kill him in the living room. In Sifang, he and Enrique found a corner to chat.

Enrique took a sip of the juice and looked at Ye Feng, who was also bored, with emotion: "I thought I looked down on you in the trials, but now you are the backbone of the team. If you have better luck in the draft, It's not out of the question that the team drafted you with the No. [-] pick. But I just..."

Ye Feng quickly comforted him: "Bob, I know that your strength is not bad, and any mid-range team in the NCAA can start the game, but now our team is strong, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that we are rushing. And you don’t have to worry about it, Russell, Kevin and I are definitely going to participate in the draft. Once we leave, the team’s roster will change a lot, and that’s your chance to take the lead.”

Enrique couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this: "I said you are comforting me or laughing at me? But you are right, after all, my current statistics are like that, and I can't play well without enough playing time. Besides, once you participate in the draft, nine times out of ten you will be selected at the top of the list, so that the team can take the opportunity to make a name for yourself and attract other outstanding high school students. At that time, I still hope that I will play a few more games as the veteran of the team. Year."

Ye Feng smiled awkwardly, but didn't speak.But Enrique is good enough to think this way. What he is most afraid of is that Enrique will continue to dig into the horns and destroy the atmosphere of the locker room.

Soon other people came one after another. This time, Westbrook originally invited Holland and Blake, but they all felt that if they attended, the players might be restrained. It would be better to let them have fun. a play.Therefore, the two coaches declined the invitation on the grounds that they wanted to accompany their families. In fact, they just created a good communication environment for everyone.

Seeing that the coach was not there, Westbrook was the most excited person in the team, and he even brought a case of beer.Ye Feng was also speechless about this bastard. Although he didn't know how he got it, American law stipulates that anyone under the age of 21 is not allowed to drink alcohol in any way for any reason, and anyone who has reached the age of 21 is also prohibited from drinking alcohol in any way. Ways to serve alcoholic beverages to persons under the age of 21 (from the US Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984).Although the alcohol content of beer is very low, it is also a drink that cannot be touched by their age group.

Westbrook was happily about to open the box, Ye Feng quickly pulled him aside, and said in a low voice, "Russell, are you crazy? Do you see how many people over 21 years old here? You buy wine Did you come here to cheat us?" Westbrook said with a dry smile: "Isn't this happy? There are so many of us, so it shouldn't matter if we drink casually." But Ye Feng didn't care what he said, and still stared at him without giving in. he.In the end, Westbrook still chose to give in under Ye Feng's insistence. In fact, he just thought it was fun, and he didn't have any grudges against Ye Feng's admonition.

Fortunately, there was no one in the team who took the opportunity to make a fuss. The other bench players were already watching the faces of the starting five tigers. Mbah a Moute was not keen on this, and Shipp was mature and prudent, not to mention that Love was more well-behaved than Ye Feng. , Everyone filled their glasses with fruit juice, and the box of beer was thrown in the corner.

In addition to the nonsense of beer, Westbrook is still very reliable in eating and drinking.He knew that everyone was not interested in grilling meat in the courtyard, and he didn't even know if they knew how to do it, so he ordered a buffet for everyone in the hotel, and even juice was calculated by bucket.It wasn't until almost seven o'clock in the evening that Westbrook reluctantly put down the game controller and called the hotel to deliver the food, while the others leisurely prepared to eat.

Soon there was a small bread car parked at the door. Thanks to the big men here, the food delivered by the hotel was not worrying about being moved. All the things have been moved in, this is great, the customers rushed to move all the things in, and my own tip is indispensable, this trip is so relaxing and enjoyable.

Soon a dozen or twenty large plates were lined up on the long table in the restaurant, and the team members were holding their own plates, chatting while looking for something to eat.This is also Westbrook's idea. After all, it is not easy for everyone to achieve such a record.No one in the entire competition area is weak, and everyone tries their best in almost every game. Now that there is no need to discuss basketball too much during the holiday, you have to catch your breath if you hang yourself.So this time it's purely for fun, and I have to have a good time, just put basketball and other things aside for the time being.

Almost all the people present were young people under the age of 20. The topics they talked about ranged from video games to heterosexuality, from travel to clubs, which were topics that some college students loved.Of course, as the only two foreigners in the team, Ye Feng and Ba Moute were pestered by a few curious guys to talk about their homeland.Ye Feng thought in his heart: "I haven't been back for so many years, but it's not a problem to fool you, it depends on whether you believe it or not, hahaha!"

But Bamoot did not intend to perfuse everyone. After all, he is the son of a local chief in Cameroon. His father holds an important position in the local government and is in charge of Cameroon's national employment fund and national employment placement training institutions.This time he caught an opportunity to introduce Cameroon to everyone. He naturally wanted it very much. Although the basketball atmosphere in this country is not very strong, football is more loved by the locals. The star Eto’o, who currently plays for Barcelona in La Liga, is his hometown. .

Although it was agreed not to talk about basketball, but everyone is an official player registered in the NCAA, and any topic can't help being attracted to basketball, but they didn't talk about the next team's schedule, but instead focused on it. It's all on the NBA.Those who study in Los Angeles are very concerned about the local team, but it is not the Clippers, but the Lakers who share the Staples Center with them.However, last season (2006-07 season) the Lakers had a poor record. Although Kobe averaged 31.6 points per game and was crowned the scoring champion again, the Lakers only recorded 42 wins and 40 losses and ranked seventh. They were directly eliminated by the Suns in the first round.

Everyone talked about the Lakers, but their thinking continued to diverge. From the Lakers to the Suns who eliminated them, from the Suns to their main point guard, Nash, who won the MVP twice, and from Nash to his old team. ox.However, the Mavericks are indeed more topical. Last season, they played the best 67 wins and 15 losses in team history, ranking first in the league, 6 more wins than the second Suns in the league.However, in the first round of the playoffs, he directly encountered the "Black Eight Miracle" for the third time in NBA history, and was defeated by the eighth Warriors in the Western Conference with a big score of 4 to 2.

It is barely human to say that grapes are sour if you can’t eat grapes. Almost everyone gloats when talking about Mavericks being hacked.But Ye Feng couldn't listen anymore, he went straight over and said loudly: "Everyone, I also think Maverick's experience is very bad, but this also reminds us!" If Rand was around, he could still see Ye Feng's intentions, but now this group of pigs would definitely not be able to guess the clue.

In fact, Ye Feng's intention is very simple. Now UCLA's record is firmly ranked first in the competition area, but the game has just been almost halfway through, and after entering the top 64, it will be an extremely cruel single-game elimination system. No one will give them anything. Adjustment time.Youdao lost Jingzhou carelessly, everyone is very angry now, it is necessary to pour cold water in a timely manner, although it is Christmas Eve, and Westbrook has never had any ideas in this regard, Ye Feng can't care so much .

He looked around and said impassionedly: "The reason why the Mavericks failed in the first round is because they are not strong enough? No, at least in terms of hard power, they are much better than the Warriors. I don't know when the Mavericks Is there any problem with the adjustment, but they lost the first game of the series, I think it is largely because they underestimated the enemy. Now we are almost like this, consecutive victories are of course good, but we can’t underestimate this Looking at the world, the loss to Iowa State is the best example. Of course, it is very easy to enter the championship stage with our strength, but from the top 64 to the final 4, we have to face no wins in every game With the ball going home, it’s possible that one small mistake can completely undo all the hard work we’ve put in all season.”

"I don't want to gloat, but the Mavericks were hacked just right, especially for us, their arrogance is very warning. There are many NCAA teams, and there are also many good players, even if there are no outstanding players. , They may also beat us through subtle tactics or strong teamwork. Of course, I don’t want to add pressure to everyone. I never deny that we are a strong team and a team that is qualified to compete for the final championship. A strong team. But we must maintain a good mentality, despise the opponent strategically, and pay attention to the opponent tactically. Isn’t there a saying that a lion needs to fight a rabbit with all its strength? I hope that no matter what kind of opponent you face, whether it is strong If we are still weak, we must show the momentum of not giving others a chance to survive, so that we can hope to win a championship for the team!"
