Chapter 011: The Legend Is Not Far Away (1)
The night had completely darkened. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Normally, the gymnasium at this time should be empty. But today was different, a sweaty guy standing alone on the basketball court, with little ball left in the big basket next to him, and the floor was littered with balls, waiting for their next companion.
"Bang!" the basket screamed again, and if it could speak, it would have complained to the guy who designed it, why didn't it make it as big as the Pacific Ocean in the first place.
"Okay, stop! If you get injured in practice, that's a bigger loss!" At some point, the door of the gymnasium was opened, and Coach Luke Holland stood there quietly watching the players who practiced alone for a long time, and finally spoke.
Ruan Erniu turned his head to look at Coach Luke, but he quickly lowered his head, he felt ashamed. He was so confident that he thought that with his physical condition, he would be able to beat his opponent at the same age, even in Millican. But just today, a mulatto player who is not very physically good told him that basketball is not that simple.
"Failure? Failure is just something you have to get used to for a long time to come. In the world of basketball, there is no such thing as a winner. Even the man named Michael Jordan was in the middle of his career at the top of his career at the top of a bird's game, a magician and a smiling assassin (three mountains!). And now, who's to say Jordan isn't great?" Luke Holland smiled and reassured.
Ruan Erniu stopped, looked at his coach and said, "Is it possible for me to become a player like Jordan?"
Luke Holland shrugged his shoulders and said, "How do I know that? But I can vouch for my credibility throughout my coaching career, and your talent will never be lost to anyone, including the guy who has worn North Carolina underwear all his life!" (Every game day, the basketball god must wear North Carolina varsity underwear, and he was complained about in "Jam Dunk")
Ruan Erniu nodded, clenched his fists and said, "Okay, I understand." You go back first, I'll practice for a while and then go home!"
Luke shook his head and said, "No, go home now." Kraft, you're going to have to make sure you have enough energy for the last few days, and if there are no accidents, I'm going to take you to meet someone over the weekend, someone who is big enough to change your future. ”
Ruan Erniu was puzzled: "Who is it?"
"The head coach of the UCLA Bruins - Ben Holland!" Luke didn't hide it, and directly said the answer.
Ruan Erniu's mouth grew and he looked particularly surprised: "But I didn't win the game as agreed, why?"
Coach Luke did not answer the question head-on, but pushed Ruan Erniu out of the gymnasium and then locked the door of the gymnasium.
Looking at the night sky over Los Angeles, Coach Luke said, "Ms. Nora, the Dean of Studies, has asked me to try to give you a full high school education. I said yes at first, but soon reversed because you were destined to belong on a bigger stage. ”
"Why are you so optimistic about me?" asked Ruan Erniu on the side.
"Exceptional physical talent, the speed of improvement that can be seen on a daily basis, and the ability to evolve in key races. If that doesn't happen enough for me to change my mind, it only proves that I'm a racist, and obviously, I'm not! And the legend of you has just written the prologue, Kraft, and I am honored to be your coach!"
"It's my pleasure too, Luke!"
Nguyen Er Niu hugged Luke Holland hard.
……
Time flies, and the weekend is just around the corner.
In UCLA's coaching office, the head coach of the basketball team, Ben Holland, is discussing with his coaching staff about the plan for next season.
Vacations may be a good time to relax in the first week after being eliminated, but as the king of the NCAA, the good tradition has doomed them not to give up the pursuit of honor.
"Florida's frontcourt is so strong, why don't they just go straight to the NBA Draft? ”
"But if those guys just don't go, what can you do? Their goal is clear, to be the first team to successfully defend the title in the new century! This greedy crocodile (Florida alligators) is now a system bug!"
"Speaking of which, our own strength is not good, if we can have the same level of frontcourt players, I believe we will not lose to the other side!"
"It's easy to say, the opponent's frontcourt is now participating in the draft, and none of them will be below the top 20!"
"So this year, we must pay more attention to running in all directions, recruiting talents, and recruiting the best basketball elites in the whole country!"
"That's right, that's it, I don't want to watch them easily occupy the first team to successfully defend the title of the new century, and acting as a backdrop is a tragedy in a tragedy!"
……
While the Bruins coaching staff was actively discussing, a stirring electronic ringtone rang from Coach Ben Holland's phone.
"Sorry, I'll answer the phone!" said Ben, walking out with his phone.
"Hey, I thought you'd never call me in your life!" said Ben Holland.
"Would you call you and ask you to introduce me to the coaching staff at UCLA? Then I'm really a loser, I'm happy with my life now, my dear cousin!" Luke said with a smile.
"Well, where are you now? I suppose you must have something important to come to me?" said Ben Holland with the same smile.
"That's right, I absolutely solemnly recommend to you a basketball prodigy, a genius that you will regret for a long time if you miss it. In fact, if you're willing to look up at three o'clock, you'll be able to see the 'surprise' I've got for you!"
"I wish your call wasn't from April Fool's Day!" Ben hung up and looked in the direction he was told.
A middle-aged white man in a neat suit is slowly approaching with a muscular Asian figure.
The two white men laughed and hugged each other.
"I'd like to introduce you, a basketball genius from the Celestial Empire - Kraft Nguyen!"
"Kraft, this is the head coach of the UCLA Bruins -- Mr. Ben Holland. If you don't know what glorious history the UCLA Bruins have, you can go online and look it up, and you'll find that this is the NCAA's Celtics!"
"All right, lad. I haven't seen how much energy you have, but since Luke has chosen to recommend you to me, I'm willing to give you a tryout. Later, someone will take you for a physical test, remember, we only recruit real geniuses!"
"Yes, Mr. Holland, I will not disappoint you!" Ruan Erniu said loudly.
Ben Holland turned around and continued to attend his meeting, while the coach in charge of the physical test took Nguyen Erniu to the UCLA training room for testing.
After the meeting, when Ben Holland got the report in his hand and read it all, he subconsciously stroked his chin. Only then did he know for sure that although his mouth was so big, fortunately his chin was still attached.
