The genius of the basketball madman is on the left

"Hey hey! Stephen, your speed can be a little faster. When holding the ball on the left side, you can stand on the outside line, top the arc at the bottom corner, whatever you like."

"Bob, Cousy, you guys too, try to open up space for Zuo Li, and you, George, you stand there, wait for Zuo Li to call the pick-and-roll, and if he doesn't call, then you wait at the basket and grab the rebound. "

In the basketball gymnasium of Stuyvesant Middle School, coach Hibbert shouted tactics with a tactical board. It is now the end of August. It took a lot of effort from Zuo Li to return here to Stephen Curry and finally passed the entrance test. It has been closed training for nearly two months.

For the past two months, they have spent almost every day in the arena. This is a newly formed team, from the coach to the players are almost new.

The biggest one here is George, who is just a senior in high school this year, while Curry, Bob, and Cousy are all sophomores in high school, and Zuo Li is only a freshman in high school and has just finished enrolling. Therefore, compared with any high school team in the United States, this Only the team is too young.

No one is optimistic about them. Of course, when they report this new and unfamiliar list to the state second-tier league, everyone is waiting to see their jokes.

Thanks to the existence of Zuo Li, many people in the United States are now paying attention to this team, saying that they will enter the state first-level league in one year, win the state championship in two years and beat Oak Hill High School. , which made them famous, and even the school of Stuyvesant became more famous.

But obviously, most of the people who pay attention are waiting to see the jokes. All kinds of ridicule on the Internet and in the news can be described as endless, and even many foreign schools that are on par with Stuyvesant in academics also ridiculed, thinking that Stuyvesant is crazy. Only after you have done it will you engage in basketball, and it will take 15 years for you to create more than 30 memes every minute.

But fortunately, it is 2003, the Internet is underdeveloped, Zuo Li and the others don’t read newspapers, deliberately avoid the media and rhythm, and devote themselves to the training ground.

The results are remarkable. At least under Zuo Li’s precepts and deeds, Curry, who was not confident about his short stature and too thin status, became full of confidence. Of course, the method was cruel. In order for Curry to find himself suitable With this style of play, Zuo Li would show up at Curry's bedside on time every morning.

That's right, the two are now sleeping in the same dormitory, eating, sleeping, and training together every day, and they are already ready to wear a pair of pants.

But there is only one thing that makes Curry full of resentment, and that is Zuo Li's various activities called getting up early every day. The time is also from 6 o'clock to 5 o'clock, and sometimes even 4 o'clock. Months are done appreciating the accomplishments of New York at 4am.

The same is true today, so that when Coach Hibbert shouted tactics, Curry was still muttering non-stop.

"Zuo Li, I hate you. At four o'clock in the morning, I wrote to Ayesha until 12 o'clock last night. Don't you know that, no wonder you are still single."

That's right, this is the only place where Curry can hit Zuo Li. In the precocious United States, someone with Zuo Li's conditions who hasn't talked about any relationship until the age of 14 is definitely a cherished species.

"What are you muttering about? Shoot your basket well. In the first game this afternoon, you can't make 10 shots. You need to train for 2 hours in the evening." Zuo Li knew what Curry was talking about without turning his head. Love is such a shitty thing.

It's a joke, my buddy has such good conditions and I still can't find a girlfriend. It's just that I focus on basketball.

Well, I won’t tell you that Curry not only has a strong relationship with Ayesha on the phone every day, but also writes to Zuo Li in the middle of the night every day and wakes him up for training at four in the morning.

Well, sure enough, Curry feels refreshed every time he abuses Curry.

"Damn, you wait, as long as you don't break the pass, I will be fine." Curry stopped joking, and his eyes became firm.

Pay so much, just for today!

...

That's right, at 8 pm on August 26th, today is the day they played their first game, at their own home court, and this is their first appearance in the United States.

The reason why it was arranged until 7 o'clock was because the New York TV station's sports channel chose to broadcast the game live. This was the first time in the history of Stuyvesant High School, which shows how much attention Stuyvesant is receiving now.

From Hibbert to Curry, everyone felt the pressure. Even Harry, the vice principal, came to the gym early and waited beside him rubbing his hands and feet.

Only Zuo Li remained calm.

"Relax, it's a small scene." Before the game started, Zuo Li, who saw that his teammates were nervous, comforted him.

"Well~~~I'll try my best." Curry promised, trembling, today is his first high school league game, his parents, his goddess Ayesha are here, and, it's even a regional live broadcast, this How could he not be nervous.

He's not bad, looking at the other three top students, Curry turned his head, forget it or not, his legs are shaking, and Bob's flesh feels like he's having a party.

For the appearance ceremony, Stuyvesant's top students were very generous. After all, it is not easy to see sports competitions in their own school, so the seats in the small third row were already full, and if you look closely, girls even occupy the majority, and there are quite a few people. There are signs that say "Zuo Li".

"No wonder you're not nervous, good guy, the girls here have been bribed by you all the time." Curry turned his head to look at Zuo Li and said sourly.

Zuo Li was unexpectedly popular at Stuyvesant. Every time he trained, there would be a group of people watching. Although he was still single, his popularity was really infuriating.

"No way, handsome."

"I refuse to communicate with you."

Curry moved outside...

In the simple appearance ceremony, Zuo Li appeared on the field wearing the '0' jersey, which was specially chosen by him, indicating that everything starts from scratch, this life, and also carries the regrets of the previous life.

"Okay, that's how this New York City secondary league started. The two teams are Stuyvesant High School and Trinity College. Both teams are famous high schools in New York, but this level of basketball..."

"However, Stuyvesant introduced Zuo Li, a streetball player. He shined on the streets of New York a few months ago. He also recruited Stephen Curry, the son of former NBA player Eddie Curry. This strength should be significantly improved. .”

On the sidelines, the New York radio station's sports commentary was introducing the two teams, but obviously, he was a little careless. After all, he didn't think there was any need to report on the second-level state league. He came here purely to complete the task.

But when the match started, the water he just drank in his mouth almost choked him to death...

Zuo Li fought for the ball as a center forward, and the player on the opposite side also reached 2 meters. He was a card player of Trinity College, but Zuo Li got the ball with a light jump.

Curry dribbled forward with the ball, handed it to Zuo Li after halftime, Zuo Li took the ball from outside the three-point line and went inside, and then dunked directly against the defense in three steps!

Bang!

That buddy was knocked out of the field during the scrum!

"Dunk, dunk! Violent dunk, Stuyvesant completed a wonderful cooperation in the opening 4 seconds, OMG, I think I need to re-recognize this team." Wiping off the cold sweat, this ball is simply dimensionality reduction Hit it.
