Chapter 64 Simple Happiness

"Lu Menglin, do you want to play basketball?" spoke to He Jin, the sports committee member in the class.

He Jin is the biggest boy in the class, not only tall, but also tall, simply the kind of skeletal and talented macho man often described in martial arts.

He and Lu Menglin have always had a good relationship, and the two really became good friends after they came into contact with basketball.

Before being reborn, Lu Menglin didn't play basketball before he went to high school, until he met He Jin and the comic "Slam Dunk", and he began to really like the sport of basketball.

I remember that after leaving the campus in later generations, Lu Menglin often took time to play basketball, but with the increase in age, the change of figure, and the decline of physical strength, he could only play health basketball.

And the friends who played basketball with Lu Menglin were also defeated by the hardships of life, and the time to play was getting less and less, and gradually became the same as him, and they could only occasionally play the senior game.

Speaking of which, Lu Menglin's basketball skills back then were basically taught by He Jin.

From dribbling, to shooting, to grabbing rebounds, the rhetoric of "mastering the rebound is mastering the whole court" has brought countless passions to the former Lu Menglin.

In fact, Lu Menglin has been waiting, waiting for He Jin to say this to himself.

Because only basketball will allow the two to find real topics that belong to each other, and then become real good friends.

Before that, Lu Menglin didn't even know how to communicate with He Jin.

Because this guy is a ball addict, he is almost indifferent to everything but basketball.

It doesn't matter if the grades are at the bottom, it doesn't matter if there are no girls who like it, as long as you can find confidence on the court, He Jin will grin and smile happily.

He is such a simple person, his favorite comic is "Slam Dunk", so he has something to talk about with Lu Menglin.

Because the number of boys in the class who participated in the school-wide basketball game was not enough, he took the initiative to talk to Lu Menglin.

Usually on the court, the two occasionally play together, and Liu Yi, the boss of the third class, is all friends on the court.

"Okay! Of course I'm going to fight!" Lu Menglin nodded seriously and said with a smile.

He Jin clenched his fists happily and said, "I knew you would agree!"

Geng Tao, another basketball expert next to him, also smiled: "Great, our class has finally gathered enough people to sign up for the competition." ”

Because it is a liberal arts class, there are few men in the class, and even fewer people can really play games.

He Jin patted Lu Menglin's shoulder excitedly, and said with a smile: "From now on, you are an official member of our team, and I will conduct special training for you!"

Lu Menglin nodded and said with a smile: "Okay!

He's been waiting for this moment for a long time, to be able to relive high school basketball and play alongside his younger brothers again, and that's what it means to be born again!

Geng Tao next to him said with a smile: "Lu Dacaizi's article is well written, but his skills are really poor, follow us to practice hard in the future!"

Lu Menglin nodded very seriously, and this matter was finalized.

I remember that when the high school league first started, Lu Menglin was just a layman similar to Sakuragi, and after the special training of He Jin and Geng Tao, he finally learned to grab rebounds and shoot at fixed points.

The most regrettable thing is that in the league that year, Lu Menglin could only make these two moves, not even a three-step layup, so their class lost to the third year of high school in the semifinals.

After that, Lu Menglin couldn't remember how many midnight dreams he had, dreaming of that game that year, and regretting that he didn't have enough strength at that time.

And now, Lu Menglin is standing at the starting point again, the school basketball game has just started, and everything is back to the beautiful summer at the beginning.

After school, Lu Menglin and He Jin came to the basketball court together.

I have to say that as a factory-run school, the sports facilities of Liufang No. 1 Middle School are still very abundant.

There are six basketball courts nearby, and students usually play on the hottest court in the middle, enjoying the feeling of being watched.

As for those who practice, they can train silently on other courses and wait for the opportunity to soar.

Compared with the anxiety of living in the city in later generations, where dozens of people often surround the only basketball court in the community and have to wait for 40 minutes to lose a game, the sports environment in this era is really much better.

"Lu Menglin, I'll teach you to dribble first, you see my movements!" He Jin shouted as he slapped the ball hard.

"Don't teach that, he should learn to catch and pass the ball first! Geng Tao said loudly.

The two masters disagreed, and soon argued.

Lu Menglin couldn't help but laugh secretly on the side, slapping the basketball unhurriedly, trying to get back his touch.

Back then, I really had no ball skills at all, I couldn't dribble well, and I didn't know how to pass the ball, I was completely good with my physical fitness, but I was just a persistent heart, just trying to grab rebounds.

However, now it is completely different, Lu Menglin looked at the movements of the two masters, and only felt that their movements were full of flaws, and they were not as powerful as he imagined.

But it's normal to think about it, even if He Jin and Geng Tao are fierce, they are just the strength of ordinary high school students, not to mention that the two of them have not become basketball players, at most they can only be regarded as enthusiasts who can play, in the eyes of Lu Menglin at this time, it is a little insufficient.

After all, Lu Menglin has played for 20 years more than them in terms of consciousness, and after graduating from high school, Lu Menglin still practiced for a while in college, but it was later out of society and gradually abandoned due to long-term lack of exercise.

The current Lu Menglin is the high school age of dragon spirit and tiger fierceness and endless energy, and he is not lost to them in terms of physical fitness, let alone real ball skills.

Of course, Lu Menglin didn't want to expose his level so quickly, mainly because he was too lazy to explain, and he didn't want to steal the limelight from these two, after all, the two of them were the leaders of the team that year.

In the end, the result of He Jin and Geng Tao's discussion was that Lu Menglin neither dribbled nor passed, but concentrated on practicing rebounding.

Because they all found that Lu Menglin has good physical fitness and jumps very high, and there is a shortage of big forwards in the squad to grab rebounds.

"The key to getting the ball is to get stuck with the opponent, use your body to hold the opponent up, out of the defensive line, so that you have a much better chance of getting the ball. He Jin said as he used his strong body to carry Geng Tao in the outer circle and demonstrate to Lu Menglin.

He Jin's position on the court is a center forward, he is physically strong, and his power in playing the inside line is extremely great, and at first glance he is a presence like Akagi Gangxian.

And Geng Tao compares himself to Liuchuan Feng, whether it is shooting or layup, he has a fairly good ability to stay in the air, like a loach, he can always see opportunities in the crowd every time, and his offense is very sharp.

Of course, Geng Tao's ball skills are very strong, but the biggest problem is that he is too ugly, and every time he compares himself to Rukawa Kaede, he will be ridiculed by a group of people.

Then, he would turn this ridicule into a stronger motivation and play basketball into the hoop with all his might.

Lu Menglin even felt that this guy was not like Rukawa Kaede in terms of appearance or style of play basketball, but rather like Futian-kun of the Lingnan team, the thick-lipped and difficult guy, full of toughness.

"Come on, Lu Caizi, you can try to grab a rebound with me!" Geng Tao beckoned and grinned.

Lu Menglin nodded and walked to the bottom of the basket.

He Jin happily took a few steps back and turned into the person who shot the basketball.

Lu Menglin knew that in fact, Geng Tao couldn't snatch He Jin as a center, so he wanted to come to him to brush up on his sense of existence.

"I'll shoot!" He Jin shouted as he jumped from outside the free throw line.

The basketball slammed into the rim of the hoop with a striking sound.

Geng Tao pouted his ass violently, wanting to push Lu Menglin away, but Lu Menglin held down his waist with one hand, but he didn't pout.

Immediately after, Geng Tao felt the wind rise above his head, and someone had jumped up and easily picked up the basketball from the top of his head.

Even Lu Menglin himself was shocked, it turned out that he was in high school, and his bounce power was so good?

Geng Tao's face turned red suddenly, and he said in a rough voice: "No, no, he pulled my clothes just now." ”

"Haha! You're not as tall as anyone else, it's normal that you can't rob it!" He Jin laughed.

"It's worthy of being a genius, you learn quickly!" He Jin gave a thumbs up to Lu Menglin.

Geng Tao was not convinced, and shouted repeatedly: "Come again, come again!"

Lu Menglin threw the basketball to He Jin, He Jin threw it casually, and smashed it on the rebound with a bang.

The basketball bounced towards the top of the two of them, and at this moment, Lu Menglin naturally squatted down, lowered his center of gravity, and blocked Geng Tao behind him.

Geng Tao exerted enough strength to feed, but he was stunned to find that he seemed to be facing a big mountain, and the other party's feet seemed to have roots, and he didn't move at all.

This time, Lu Menglin didn't even jump, and directly reached out to pick up the rebound.

When He Jin saw this scene, his eyes straightened.

"It's amazing, it's amazing!Lu Menglin, have you practiced secretly?" He Jin shouted excitedly.

Lu Menglin smiled, slapped the ball casually, and said, "Well, I watched "Slam Dunk" at home during the summer vacation, and practiced according to what I was taught in the comics for a few days, which really worked." ”

"I'll come, I'll try it with you!" He Jin, the ball idiot, saw that Hunting was happy, strode forward, and stood under the rebound.

He Tao glared directly and said, "Go away, I haven't finished competing with him yet! This time, let's go head-to-head! I'll kick off first." ”

After that, He Tao took a few steps back, the basketball in his hand was fast, and then rushed to Lu Menglin and made a stop-and-go jump shot, and the ball went in.

"I won!" Geng Tao said proudly.
