Not far away, a tall and thin boy looked at his good friend who was called by the audience. Beasley. Since meeting the boy who is three months younger than himself since he was eleven years old, he has lived in the shadow of each other almost all the time when it comes to basketball.

After the crazy increase in height in the summer, it is already as tall as that star's hair. Coupled with years of shooting practice, he has excellent shooting skills that can cover the entire half.

That gave the sophomore boy an average of 18.7 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. Very good results, but they are overshadowed by the comparison with good friends.

After the game without suspense, Charlie. Bell didn't surround the boy group nicknamed "BEEASY" like the rest of his peers.

Instead, he walked to the tall, lanky boy in the No. 35 jersey, and on his immature face, Bale easily found those lonely emotions.

"Hey! I'm Charlie. Bel. ”

When the boy saw this strange man, he hesitated for a while. In the end, he stretched out his right hand.

Kevin. Durant, they all call me Kevin. ”

"That showy guy is your friend." Bell nodded towards the crowd and continued. "Don't get me wrong, I just saw that the cooperation between the two of you in the game was very good, and this tacit understanding is definitely not something that can be cultivated in a day or two."

"Ugh! In fact, we have known each other for 5 years and are together almost every day. A surprised Durant replied. Apparently he was frightened by the other party's attentive insight.

"Playing with your friends must be easy." Bell took the basketball from the other man's arms, slapped it on the ground a few times, and gave it back to the boy. "I think you should change schools." Bell continued.

"What? Sorry, I didn't hear you. It's not that Durant didn't hear clearly, and he didn't dare to confirm that this man who met for the first time would be so direct.

"You should change schools, where you will live forever in the shadow of your friends." Bell waved his arms exaggeratedly. "Your shot feels very, very good," he said with two 'very' to emphasize his point. Then he took out a small notebook from his jacket pocket, and the notebook was full of numbers.

"8-of-10 shooting, 4-of-6 three-pointers. With such high efficiency, don't you feel the need for more shots? Bell looked at the data in the notebook and said with a serious face.

Shot, yes, I need shot, a voice in Durant's heart kept shouting.

Seeing the teenager being told by himself, Bale hit the railroad while it was hot: "You have all the qualities to be a great scorer, but you need a stage." A big stage that can attract everyone's attention, not this dilapidated arena. ”

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm a professional scout who works for major basketball schools, and I know guys in high school and college. Bell took out his business card and handed it to the tall and thin boy in front of him.

After this day, Kevin. Durant's basketball career has taken off in earnest.

Sun Yi, who had just finished his test at the Snyder's rehabilitation center, sat by a window along the street. Looking at the goose feathers flying in the sky, the whole world turned white.

Ay! I couldn't see her again all the holidays. This year, Anna's family went to her grandfather's house in Miami, where the sun is shining and the climate is pleasant enough to avoid the most nasty days of the year in Chicago.

Before leaving, Anna invited Sun Yi to go with her again. This time, the two children did not have an awkward relationship. It's just Sun Yi's holiday, and there is also an important interstate championship.

Ding dong! A text message beeps sound. Sun Yi took out his mobile phone and looked happy when he saw the sender's name.

"Nerd, what are you doing?"

"Looking at my quick reply, don't you know that I'm waiting for your message."

"Then why don't you send it to me first."

"I'm thinking about you, can't I care about it."

"You liar, you send it to me next time."

"Why? You go first. ”

…………

Snyder looked at the results of Sun Yi's physical test, and the more he watched, the more excited he became. The net height is 1.88 meters and the weight is 75 kg. The height has not changed much, and the weight has increased a lot under Snyder's deliberate adjustment.

Happily, Sun Yi's arm span has risen a lot, reaching 1.96 meters. Height may also be promoted through diet, and this arm span is completely dependent on the sky and food, and it all depends on the individual's creation. Everyone knows that the longer the arm span, the harder it is to block the shot. This is tantamount to increasing the height in a different direction without affecting the speed and agility of the players.

When he saw Sun Yi's fat content, the excited Snyder almost couldn't help but want to cheer loudly. The fat content of 8% is equivalent to a moat for basketball players, which is equivalent to distinguishing ordinary players from star players. I remember that on the results of Sun Yi's physical test for the first time, the fat content of his body that looked so thin reached 14%.

After more than a year of hard work, Snyder finally proved that he has always insisted on the view that race and talent are not the decisive factors in judging a player's ability, and that it is possible to cultivate talented players with unlimited potential through reasonable, step-by-step scientific training methods.

Due to the excellent performance of the Timothy Trojans this year, they have won 10 consecutive games since the start of the game, and have been paid attention to by high school sports media from all walks of life. As their popularity grew, the Trojans received their first invitation to the Nike Tour in Los Angeles.

Every year a week after Christmas, the organizers of the Nike Tour in Los Angeles invite some of the strongest high school teams to the tournament. Although, high school competitions are not allowed to have any prize money. However, the powerful Nike company will provide round-trip airfare, food and accommodation for each team, and these conditions are difficult for high school teams to refuse. Gradually, as more and more strong teams participated in this event, the popularity also increased, and various high school basketball schools were proud to receive invitations to this event.

This year's tour team included Lawrence North High School, one of the top three basketball schools in the United States. Oden has been hailed as a once-in-a-20 talented center, and the team's offensive playmaking is led by star point guard Mike Brown. Conley is considered the number one favorite to win the championship in this competition.

Then there's Rose Hill Christ High School from Kentucky, which just won the Kentucky state championship last year under the leadership of two 16-year-old West Virginia teenagers, O.J. Mayo and Bill Walker.

There's also Lake Oswego High School in Oregon, which has star power forward Kevin, who averages 25 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Lefou.

and North Central High School in Indianapolis, where the team is not well-known, but this season it has been a sophomore in high school scoring guard Eric Brown. Gordon has led an impressive 11-1 record. Averaged 29 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists per game, shooting 57% from the field and 46% from three-point range.

After Coach Boli flipped through the information in his hand, it seemed that this tour was not so easy to deal with.

"Chris, get ready to go." Coach Boeley's wife would set off with the team as the Trojans' team doctor. After walking around the house and checking whether the doors and windows were closed. Coach Boeli ******** walked out the door and saw his wife and Helen. Donati had already packed her bags and stood in the courtyard for a while.

In order to reward Helen for her outstanding contribution to the cheerleading team in the past three years, the school specially arranged for her to be Mrs. Burleigh as an assistant. It can be regarded as a disguised publicly-funded tour. In the cheerleading squad for the next semester, Helen's hot dance will no longer be seen. After all, she is already in her senior year of high school, and she has to deal with the ACT and SAT exams, as well as attend some school interviews.

On December 26, 2003, a group of Trojans from Timothy High School, after a flight of more than three hours. Finally, we arrived in Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States on the West Coast. The climate of Los Angeles, which is located in the Mediterranean climate zone, is more pleasant than that of Chicago, the windy city, and the bright sunshine makes the boys who have been locked in the cabin for more than three hours cheer.

Point guard Thomas, in particular, has been forcibly taking his habitual seat since Helen. He sat with Glenn, the boss of the team, but Glenn was obviously not a talkative guy, which made Thomas, who had a strong desire to chat, suffocated.

Board the bus sent by the organizing committee and head to the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, where the competition will be held. From Bob. From Hope Airport, it takes more than 20 minutes along the Golden State Highway to the Rose Hotel next to the California Institute of Technology.

Due to the proximity to the famous Rose Bowl Stadium, many shops in the vicinity have the word "rose" in their names, such as "white rose" and "red rose", which are very similar to some tourist attractions in China.

Standing in front of the Rose Hotel, where the Trojans were staying, you can clearly see the famous Mount Wilson to the north. Located in the suburbs of Los Angeles, there is less of a buzz on the streets, making it a great place for curious kids to compete.

Although the area of the Rose Hotel that hosted Sun Yi is not very large, judging from some photos displayed in the hotel lobby, it obviously has a long history. Moreover, as the designated reception hotel for the competition, they have long been familiar with the road and have a very high reception efficiency, and they arranged the accommodation of 20 people from Timotai High School in more than ten minutes.

Thomas, who was in the same room with Sun Yi, pounced on the soft bed as soon as he entered the room. He muttered, "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep and no one will pay attention to me." As soon as the excitement passed, Thomas, who was still alive just now, immediately languished.

Looking at the hotel's specially lengthened beds to receive them, Sun Yi couldn't help but sigh, this old beauty's sense of service is really not covered. After sorting out some daily necessities, I took a hot shower.

A commotion in the hallway woke Thomas from his bed. After a few words of scolding, he patted his head. Here comes the hillbilly from Kentucky.
