Chapter 117: Repercussions
The next day, at 9:15 a.m., the NBA League President's Office. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Knock knock!"
"Come in." David. Stern put down his report and spoke.
A blonde-haired and graceful woman in professional clothes came in with a swaying of her fat buttocks, holding a thick stack of newspapers in her hand, "Mr. President, the newspaper you want." ”
"Yes." David. Stern let out a sigh of understanding, then picked up a newspaper on the table and read it.
"......" The secretary of the president did not leave, but looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"Huh? Susan has something to do? After reading the newspaper for a while, I felt that the secretary hadn't gone out yet, and asked with a little doubt.
"Sir, is the Japanese high school team really so powerful?" The blonde female secretary heard her boss ask, and after a little hesitation, she still asked her doubts.
“... How did you remember to ask this? Oh yes, it's my itinerary..."David. Stern's eyes froze, and then he remembered something, and suddenly realized.
"......" The blonde female secretary showed a trace of fear on her face, but there was still a strong desire for knowledge in her eyes, obviously this little secretary was not small, and it could also be seen that David was full of aura at work.
"Heh." David. Stern chuckled, Susan, you're really... Even David was a successful Jewish businessman, and for a while he couldn't find an adjective that fit her image at this time, to fill the impression in his heart as a secretary, saying that Susan had low emotional intelligence... It is obviously not a character with low emotional intelligence who can get a master's degree in business and law at Stanford University in only two years, but looking at the curiosity that flashed in her eyes, Mr. President still temporarily classified her at this time as a girl's unique curiosity.
"What to say... This Asian team has only one absolute strong point, and has been at a big disadvantage in other positions. Yesterday they lost the game for their own reasons, and of course there were opponents who were really unexpectedly strong..." Stern gave a general overview of yesterday's practice match.
"Well... Sir, I'm out to work. The female secretary nodded and stepped out, "Click." ”
"Huh." Looking at the closed door, David. Stern shook his head and continued to look at the newspaper in his hand.
If someone can see the contents of the newspaper in Mr. President's hand at this time, they will probably understand why the female secretary asked this, and these newspapers all reported on the match between Du University and the Japanese college team yesterday.
The New York Times --
"Yesterday the Japanese University United and the Duke Blue Devils held a closed-hall practice match, and then the result came out 151:152! The Blue Devils are in front of the Japanese high school team, you read that right! The Blue Devils lost! The Blue Devils actually lost to an Asian team, and to an opponent who was on average three years younger than them! This is another great defeat for the United States of America since Pearl Harbor!
However, considering that Philadelphia's Raul Merrien High School also lost to this college team a few days ago, we have reason to believe that this college team is the essence of Japan in recent years, and it is very likely that it is the whole of their national youth team.
For follow-up news, please pay attention to the sports column of this newspaper. ”
Los Angeles Times--
"After continuing Raul Merrion College, the Duke Blue Devils also fell, is the next one a dream team? Hopefully today isn't April 1. ”
Compared with the New York Times, which is close to the water, the preparation of the Los Angeles Times is not too sufficient, in terms of homework or should it be said that the network in the NCAA basketball world, or the best in the United States today, the following is his report.
USA Today--
"Yesterday, this newspaper received news that the Duke University basketball team and the college team from Japan had a closed-door practice, and in the end, Duke lost by one point. The specific process of the game due to the previous agreement between the two parties - 10 years before the unblocking, the video record of the game reporter did not see the reporter, but the personal data of this practice match reporter is still fortunate to arrive, we will deduce and analyze the process of this practice match from these personal data.
Let's not talk about the statistics of Duke's players for the time being, but mainly mention the college team: No. 4 Watanabe Daime is 200 cm tall and has 13 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists, No. 5 Yamada Tadashi is 198 cm tall and has 83 points, 11 rebounds, 24 assists, 9 steals, and 8 blocks, and No. 12 Mitsui Shou is 183.5 cm tall and has 18 points and 4 assists,......
From the above data, it should be easy for everyone to prescribe something, right, the strength of the No. 5 player of the college team... It's really strong, and he was able to score 83 points, and picked up 11 rebounds, 9 steals, 8 blocks, and 24 assists, which is a quasi-five-double, a quasi-five-double! This shows how strong this No. 5 player is.
At this time, someone must be asking, why didn't the Blue Devils put the No. 5 on the bag and let him score so many points? In fact, from the beginning of the game to the end of overtime, as long as the No. 5 has the ball in his hand, Duke is a double bag, and even three people in the back, which can also be seen from his 24 assists. This can only say that the opponent's physical fitness, offensive skills, vision, and physical fitness are extremely outstanding! And Duke's side has gone because of the two main players - the interior pillar Christian. Leitner, three-point Brian. Davis, but there is also an inside and outside hub in the team, Grant. Hill, Bobby Hurley, known as the assist robot, and Antonio, who is a little less sophisticated. Lang, plus the practical inside line Thomas. Hill, who is now a first-year freshman who is still qualified insider--Kena. John, in terms of the hard power on the card, is not weak, and finally let the opposite No. 5 with a weaker teammate, after a hard-fought overtime victory.
Now that Duke has lost a game, I think the next meeting will definitely give us a satisfactory answer. This newspaper will follow up on the follow-up situation, so stay tuned. ”
"......" David. Stern read through several newspapers on the table, tapping his right index finger rhythmically on the table and falling into deep thought.
At this time, there is another report on the table, which is being reviewed by the president's secretary before he comes in, mainly about the family background of Tadashi Yamada--
......
Grandpa: Yamada Isshin.
The current patriarch of the Yamada family in Japan, the family is mainly engaged in the marketing of home appliances, accounting for more than 70% of the market share of Japanese home appliances......
Looks like this Yamada isn't easy to introduce, David. Stern thought of the action of tapping the table with his right index finger here, and at this time, Mr. President was quite a bit of the feeling when Cao Cao fought Liu Bei in Hanzhong - chicken ribs, chicken ribs, tasteless food, and it was a pity to abandon it.
In this atmosphere, the second closed-door practice match between the Duke and college teams is about to begin.
