Chapter 015: Mortal enemies in the same city
What is the daily life of the people of California? In addition to the death and taxation that people often talk about, the confrontation between UCLA and USC is definitely something that cannot be left unmentioned. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is also in Los Angeles, which is also a well-known university in the United States, and it also continues to export all kinds of talents in sports, scientific research, film and television.
More than 70 years of confrontation may be just the beginning, and the 100-year derby is basically impossible to run. Perhaps only if aliens attack Earth to fight a "Battle of Los Angeles" (a science fiction movie, the rice version of "Don't Abandon, Don't Give Up"), it will be possible for them to suspend the confrontation.
And what is the result of so many years of confrontation? What is the concept of more than 500 Olympic medals won by the two teams in sports alone? That's equivalent to the total number of medals of Canada and Mexico, and not much different from the total number of medals of the Celestial Empire.
Since the warm-up match was held at UCLA, UCLA students had already covered their dear "Buren" bear (a bronze statue representing UCLA) with a white cloth in advance.
Who knows if the damn USCs will dye Little Bren red (red is the USC's home team eye color, UCLA is blue), and of course, if these bastards do, their Trojan statues are ready to be painted blue at any time. (As happened in history, the USC poured red paint on the Bren Bear, and the annoyed UCLA backhanded hired a helicopter to drop blue dye on the Trojan statue.) )
A bus slowly drove into the UCLA territory, and through the window, you could already see the middle fingers raised high. That's right, don't think that the game starts with the whistle, the real game starts from the first step into the enemy zone.
Inside the bus, Trojan boss Nick Young is giving a lecture to the newcomers around him.
"You all listen carefully, I won't go into detail about the relationship between us and the weak bear, what I'm going to say is actually very simple, even if the UCLA girl wants to you, you'd better not agree!"
Ty Gibson, who had just entered the school, smiled and asked, "Nick, are they ready to avenge their team in bed......?
"Hey, I can see that you kid is a sullen brat, but the story I came down to tell is a true story, the other party sent a beautiful girl to lure one of our basketball players to the lake, and then the rugby players who had been ambushed for a long time rushed out and slammed our people into the cold lake......"
"Alright, Nick, there's no credible evidence for such an urban legend, it's just a normal warm-up game. If you win, you'll get a warm welcome from the USC girls, and if you lose, it's just as easy, plus 500 push-ups per person!Okay, now shut up and sit down!" Coach Tim Floyd finally couldn't help but open his voice.
The crankiness of these young men under hormonal restlessness is really unnecessary.
Nick Young sat down to the wails of his teammates, and no matter what, it was a game that couldn't be lost.
UCLA's side is at ease, but it doesn't mean to slack off. The shooting practice before the game continued as usual.
Westbrook said to Erniu on the side: "Kraft, do you think we will get a chance to play today? ”
Erniu said: "Obviously, you have not yet qualified to start. However, Nina will forgive you, because even in bench time, it will be enough for you to take out USC!"
Xibu and Erniu slapped their hands and said, "That's right, that's it!
Erniu replied enthusiastically: "Brown Bears!"
Aaron Afflaro looked at his passionate teammates and said to his teammate Darren Collison next to him: "This year's first year is really too much energy, I said, Darren, do you think it's possible for one of them to be in the first year?"
Collison shook his head and said: "Although the guy named Russell is very strong, he is a little too weak and inexperienced, I don't believe Coach Holland dares to put him in the starting lineup." As for that Celestial Empire, well, it has nothing to do with me!"
Afflaro looked at the slippery Collison and said: "Darren, anyone with a discerning eye can see that our 'Prince of Cameroon' may not be able to keep the main position. With the same short contact with basketball, the same highly mobile power forward, the Celestial Empire seems to have suppressed Luke (referring to Bahmert). ”
At this time, the whistle sounded, and Ben Holland took the tactical board and walked up to his players.
On the tactical board, there is a starting list for tonight. Even the veteran players are not fully sure that they will be able to qualify for the start, and all eyes are on Ben Holland.
PG: Darren Collisson, SG: Josh Ship, FF: Aaron Afflaro, PF: Luke Richard Palmert and, of course, our centre-forward Mata. Ben Holland reported the starting line-up in turn.
Sibu pursed his lips, covered his mouth and said to Erniu beside him: "No new starter, I'm sure that it won't take long for that Cameroonian to be blown up, Kraft, you should be the starter." ”
Ruan Erniu was in a good mood and said: "It doesn't matter, it should be my thing, sooner or later it will be in my hands!"
Self-confidence comes from strength, and strength comes from accumulating progress over time. During this period of time, Ruan Erniu himself has obviously felt the rapid improvement of his strength, he is only 17 years old, and he will definitely get the opportunity to prove himself.
The sun was setting and the sky was getting darker.
UCLA's basketball hall was full of people, and the cheerleading team dance at the beginning had already made UCLA students stand up restlessly. Because the opponent is USC, even if it is a warm-up game, they must feel the atmosphere of the devil's home field.
The DJs on the scene reported the players of the away team and the home team one by one. Aaron Afflalo enjoyed the biggest cheers of the audience as the team's ace.
Unfortunately, at the beginning of the game, the team was suppressed by the opponent.
Nick Yang, who was nicknamed Yang Shaoxia by Celestial Empire fans in the future, is by no means a second-class young man who is handsome for only 3 seconds. In the NCAA game, he still has an egg head, and he is the first-class scorer in the No. 1 jersey.
Inside-out shots quickly gave the Trojans the lead.
A wave of 8:0 directly made the Bruins stunned, but fortunately, Afflaro adjusted his state in time and fought to catch up in the next game.
The score was slowly recovered a little, but it was not enough, because everyone did not expect it. The home team's interior line was easily blown up, and a man named Ty Gibson repeatedly humiliated Mata and Bahmert with violent dunks.
The guy, who only became a college rookie at the age of 22, tore apart the seemingly not-so-weak Bruins frontcourt with explosive bounces and tough defense.
Ben Holland, who saw his basket being ravaged with all the rage, couldn't stand it anymore.
He slammed the board on the ground, didn't care about the broken plastic fragments, and yelled at the bench: "Kraft, replace Luke, show me that No. 22, and tell him whose territory this is?"
