"Zhou, do you know how many assists you have taken?" Assistant coach Wayne smiled and patted Zhou Xuan on the shoulder and asked.

"I counted them myself, and there were almost nine."

"It's nine. God, I found out that you are a genius, and I have to apologize for laughing at your ball businessman. Vane laughed. The United States is a place that talks about strength, and if you have strength, you will be respected by others. Zhou Xuan's performance today can be described as a blockbuster.

Leonard also praised: "You did a beautiful job, you usually have to practice more passing skills, if you can do a good job of hitting the ground and making the first pass more accurate, I think you will definitely be able to play well in the NBA." ”

"What should I do?"

"Practice more, master the passing feel, there is no shortcut, just find the feeling." Leonard smiled.

Many people think that passing is an easier part of basketball, in fact, this is a difficult science to master, passing timing, accuracy are very important, now Zhou Xuan can see the timing of passing, and there is still a lack of accuracy, otherwise there will be no mistakes. If he wants to play in the NBA, he has to do better, the NBA is very fierce, and the opportunities are fleeting.

Leonard asked, "I heard that you live in the western suburbs, why are you so far away?" ”

"There's a Chinese area there, and bachelor apartments are cheaper." Zhou Xuan was a little embarrassed, his residence was far away from the stadium, and it took an hour and a half by bus. He couldn't move, and it was hard to rent an apartment in downtown Los Angeles.

"My friend lives alone near the stadium and you can share a house with him. He used to play ball, and I'm sure you'll have a common language. Leonard laughed.

"Thank you, Coach...... But forget it. Zhou Xuan sighed. Although Martha left some money behind, it was not much, and he was very poor, and he had to save money before paying his salary.

"For what? Do you not like moving, or do you not like to share a house? ”

"Neither, I don't have any money......"

"No money? You don't even have the money to rent a house? ”

"When I was hospitalized before, I didn't have health insurance, I spent a lot of money, my family already owed a lot of debt to send me to the United States, the team's salary was not paid, and I only had a few hundred dollars left." This is Zhou Xuan's current situation, renting a house in Los Angeles is not cheap, Leonard's friends are probably not low-grade, if the rent is a few hundred dollars a month, he will have no money to eat.

"Hehe, you are the poorest Chinese I have ever met, and Chinese tourists who come to Los Angeles spend more than all your belongings in a day." Leonard smiled wryly.

In the eyes of American businesses, Chinese tourists are the most popular, and they come to the United States with bulging wallets to spend generously. According to official data from the U.S. tourism industry, Chinese tourists spend $7,000 per capita in the United States, ranking first among all overseas tourists, and are nicknamed "walking wallets."

I don't have anyone in my family who is an official. Zhou Xuan muttered in his heart.

"Zhou, let's go live with my friend, it's more convenient to train, and it's okay if you don't pay the rent, I believe he will agree." Actually, he really wants to meet you. ”

"For what?" Zhou Xuanleng paused, how can you live for free, that guy won't be an old glass. Then he would rather sleep on the streets.

"Because he's a basketball agent, he knows about you and wants you to be his client, and now he's in the stands and you can meet him when the game is over." Leonard smiled like an old fox.

Sure enough, there is a purpose, but I'm poor like this, is it the time to hire an agent? Zhou Xuan sighed in his heart, it is difficult to be kind, let's get to know each other after the game.

While the two were chatting, Team Jam unleashed an 8-0 attack wave that narrowed the gap to 46-40 by only six points, and the defenders were a little out of rhythm. Leonard said: "Zhou, get ready to play, play hard, I will give you more time." ”

"Okay."

Zhou Xuan replaced Jones. Out of politeness, the players would clap their hands when they got off the field, but Jones didn't look at Zhou Xuan. Zhou Xuan smiled secretly in his heart, he still shook his face in NBDL, and thought he was a character. I don't want to improve this stinky level, and my mind is used in other aspects, no wonder I can't play in the NBA.

Another defender of the Defenders, Josh. Bale barely gets playing time. He is 182CM tall, his quality, scoring ability, and organizational skills are average, and he is completely involved in the development league.

"Zhou, pass me the ball." Sending out the sideline ball, Kruger happily ran towards the frontcourt, he has a good relationship with Zhou Xuan in the team, as long as Zhou Xuan is on board, he is not a pure blue collar.

Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, and the jam team also changed another defender - Martin. Cliffs. He was a two-time All-10 Player of the Year in college, a three-time All-America selection, and led Michigan to one NCAA championship. Having participated in the NBA Draft, the Detroit Pistons selected him with the 14th pick in the first round.

The lottery player sounds great, but he entered the worst draft in 2000, when Kenyon was the top pick. Martin, the list is Swift who can only dunk. Most of the players have been forgotten, and only a few of the best are still on the fringes of the NBA. In six seasons in the league, Cliffs had just three stats. 6 points 1. 9 assists.

Zhou Xuan's first impression was that this person must be very slow. THE 188CM TALL CLIFFS WEIGHED 95 KILOGRAMS, AND MANY STRIKERS WERE AT THIS WEIGHT AND LOOKED FAT. In the face of such an opponent, Zhou Xuan did not wait for his teammates to cover, and suddenly changed direction with the ball in the front court, he didn't even make a feint, he crossed over Cliffes in one step, and calculated the next step in his heart.

The opponent's big forward let go of Kruger's defense, and Zhou Xuan often practiced empty reception with Kruger during training, in order to show off in the game, and young people rarely don't like to show up. Seeing the opponent's big forward coming, Zhou Xuan first moved sideways, and then threw the ball out of the ball with a hook move, over the opponent's head.

Isn't this kid scared? How can this kind of hook hand enter, it is simply a blind throw. Jam team power forward Eddie. Davis thought to himself, but as soon as he turned around, he saw Kruger taking off, relaying in the air, and scoring with both hands! 48 to 40.

There was a round of applause from the crowd, and it was the best goal to date.

"It's so beautiful!"

"Good pass!" When they returned to the defense, Zhou Xuan and Kruger clapped their hands.

After this goal, Zhou Xuan's half-time assists have doubled.

The jam team attacked, Cliffs hung the ball inside in the front court, trying to make Davis eat Kruger, the ball just passed, Zhou Xuan gave up the defense of Cliffes and ran to wrap Davis.

The difference in size between the two insiders is like Gong Hanlin against Guo Donglin, and Kruger may be knocked out of internal injuries if he resists hard. Of course, Davis would not take this kind of opponent in his eyes, he took the ball and turned around with his back two steps to the bottom line, how did he know that just halfway through, the ball was slapped off, and Zhou Xuan slapped the basketball accurately.

Cliffs wanted to come up and grab the dropped basketball, he was too slow, and the consequence of rushing forward was that Zhou Xuan grabbed the ball first and then passed him in one step, and after transporting it to the halfcourt, Zhou Xuan passed to the fast Lithuanian pitcher Sebutis, who received the ball and grabbed the empty position to shoot a three-point shot. 51 to 40.

The point difference became double digits. Just now, the two sides played very dullly, and the audience was about to fall asleep, and now Zhou Xuan ignited the passion on the court again.

Sitting on the sidelines, Jones sighed, it was unlikely that he wanted to snatch back the starting line from Zhou Xuan.

The jam team attacked, Cliffs passed the ball into the interior again, Zhou Xuan also chose to let go of the defender's bag, Davis was so angry that he couldn't wait to smash the ball on Zhou Xuan's face, someone actually made a bag in the NBDL, did you make a mistake when I was Duncan? This is a deliberate effort not to let me get good data, right?

Davis passed the ball back to Cliffs, who was already empty, and Zhou Xuan couldn't catch up with him, but Cliffs' offensive ability was very poor, and he couldn't score in the open position, and the rebound was obtained by Kruger.

The defender attacked, the ball passed to Zhou Xuan's hands, and in the face of Cliffs, Zhou Xuan waved his hand and let the players pull away, he wanted to play alone.

Cliffs was very unenergetic, and opened a two-step distance defense with Zhou Xuan, betting that Zhou Xuan would not be able to shoot. Zhou Xuan's outside shooting is indeed inaccurate, but it is much easier to shoot when no one is defensive, and he really can't find a reason not to shoot, so he shoots three points at the top of the arc.

He was in good shape today, and he hit the first outside shot! 54 to 40. The defender scored three rounds in a row, and under the leadership of Zhou Xuan, he returned an 8-0.

At this time, there was an unusual scene in the bench on the sidelines, and Paul, the head coach of the Jam team, yelled at the assistant coach next to him. "Reed, look at the good things you did, this is the waste you drove away, this is the person you said is not suitable for basketball at first glance?"

"......" Reed lowered his head and was irrefutable. He was the fat man who drove away Zhou Xuan and Martha, and when Zhou Xuan signed the defender, he also said that the defender was really unavailable, and even such a Chinese was willing to sign. After the start of the game, his face became more and more ugly. It was difficult for the jam team to limit Zhou Xuan's play. It's easy to defend the score, but it's too hard to prevent the pass, and that's a problem that only NBA teams have.

His strength should be able to play in the NBA! That's how Paul thinks now, if the Jam team kept him, maybe they could get rid of the status of the "fish belly team" in the NBDL, and their weakest position is point guard.

After the Jam team failed to find a gap on several passes, Paul called a timeout to change his offensive and defensive strategy and replace Clifts, otherwise the game would quickly turn into an exhibition game for the defenders.

A "die-hard fan" who paid attention to Zhou Xuan appeared in the stands. Zhou Xuan assisted, he was always the first to stand up and applaud. This person is Mitchell, a friend of Leonard's and a former NBA player and 42-year-old basketball agent. Butler.

Mitchell was a point guard and wasn't famous, but he knew a lot about basketball. It is difficult to cultivate passing awareness, he is optimistic about Zhou Xuan's future, and believes that he can play well in the NBA, even if he can't become a second Nash, at least he can gain a foothold. Relying on the Chinese market, maybe you can even become a star.

Follow the famous agent Dan. Fagan has studied for two years, Mitchell is still a newcomer who is not in the stream, he has limited resources in his hands, and the few people he signed are marginal people who can't play in the NBA, in order to make money, he is determined to win over Zhou Xuan. Thinking of this, he was a little nervous, for fear that the fat in his mouth would fly.
