Chapter 243: They Are Geniuses Indeed
(Yesterday I read the book review, here is an explanation of why I finally wrote the Eastern Loss, because although the protagonist let Curry brush up on good data, but it also provoked public anger and offended Stern and many fans, according to my thoughts, in this case, the league will not award the MVP to Curry Lin Jeremy them, so I simply wrote a plot about losing in the East, but after reading the words of a book friend in the book review, I think this kind of treatment is still a bit inconsiderate, after all, reading online articles must be cool first, and making things happen to make a commotion, It turned out to be no good.,It's really a little unpleasant.,I'm going to change that plot today.,Let Curry take AMVP.,I'm sorry.,It's mainly that the part-time writing time is too tight every day.,It's more than eleven o'clock after two chapters.,It's too late to take a look at it and think about it.。 )

"Excellent! It was perfect! ”
On the court, Jack nodded, a smile on his face.
In front of him, a team of Harvard varsity players were engaged in their daily training tasks.
In the midst of a group of black and white people, two yellow-skinned teenagers stood out.
On the one hand, it is because their skin color is a little out of place with the others, and on the other hand, it is because the two of them are completely different from the other people when they train.
"Alright, rest for twenty minutes."
Looking at his watch, Jack said to the players.
The disbanded players did not disperse directly, but gathered towards the stands of the arena until Jack walked over and blasted the players away.
"You're really popular enough!" Jack looked at Wang Xiao and shook his head and said.
Wang Xiao has joined the NBA for more than two years and nearly three years, and the Harvard University team he coached has also graduated and left, but in Harvard University, Wang Xiao still has a very high status, after all, the first NCAA championship trophy in the history of Harvard University was won by Wang Xiao, and the pride of Harvard University, the NBA champion, and the all-star Jeremy Lin was also trained by Wang Xiao.
"It's okay." Wang Xiao smiled and looked at the players who scattered away, but his attention was still focused on this side. "I don't think it has anything to do with my popularity, it's more about getting my guidance and wanting to be the second Jeremy Lin, Dunn."
"Do you think I have players on my team who have the potential to approach them?" Jack asked.
"Of course." Wang Xiao pointed to Wang Meng and Cheng Jie, who were standing together and chatting. "Just two of them."
"Damn!" Jack rolled his eyes, feeling a little lost in his heart.
Wang Meng and Cheng Jie are the talents that Wang Xiao finally screened out through a wide range of auditions in China, Jack was very disappointed when he first met the two, and he was also very unbelievable, just two little guys with poor basic skills, can also be brought to the United States by Wang Xiao's fancy for thousands of miles?
But as time goes by, Jack gradually discovers the extraordinaryness of these two little guys, although their foundation is poor, and they are not even up to the average of American high school players, but the level of effort and progress of the two are dumbfounded.
In the past three or four months, although the level of the two of them is still the last level in the Harvard varsity team, it has almost changed dramatically compared to when they first came.
Now, Jack is convinced that these two imps really have great potential as Wang Xiao said, and at the rate of their current progress, I am afraid that by next season, they will be able to sit in the main position on the Harvard varsity team, and even compete with the top players in the NCAA.
"I'm not asking about the two of them, I'm asking about the players other than him."
Although the record is much worse than when Wang Xiao was there, and the Ivy League is no longer invincible in the past few years, this team can still lead the Ivy League and advance to the NCAA tournament with more than 70% certainty.
Jack's goal is not just to make it to the tournament, he also wants to rebuild the glory of Jeremy Lin and Dunn and lift the NCAA championship trophy again, but with the strength of the current Harvard team, it will be difficult to break through from the round of 64.
The rise of Wang Meng and Cheng Jie is next year, and the most important thing is that these two people are brought by Wang Xiao, not his results.
So Jack wanted to know what the level and potential of the players he had hand-picked was.
Faced with Jack's persistent question, Wang Xiao was silent for two seconds, and then said: "If you can lead the team to the top 32 this year, you will exceed the task, if you want to go further, you have to wait for those two little ghosts to grow up." ”
Wang Xiao didn't answer Jack's question directly, but it was no different from answering.
"Really? That's right......"
Jack smiled, and then patted Wang Xiao on the shoulder.
"It's the same as I thought, but you're really good, I can't figure out how you can see their talent and potential at a glance."
Wang Xiao smiled but said nothing.
He'll watch a mallet!
The reason why Wang Xiao has such a judgment is very simple, he has never heard of the names of these players in Jack's team.
It's 2012 now, and Wang Xiao's time is 2019, and in the past 7 years, these players have been unknown, and even Wang Xiao is not sure if any of them have joined the NBA.
Although Harvard University has started to set up basketball-related grants, it is still a little immature compared to those traditional basketball universities.
Most of the children who play basketball in the NBA are in difficult circumstances, like James, Harden and other players had a bad family when they were young, James's mother and son were abandoned by their father, and Harden's father was imprisoned for drug trafficking. Butler was abandoned by his mother as a child and wandered around like a street child, and for them, a scholarship in college was quite important.
Therefore, although Harvard University now has financial aid, it is still difficult to compete with those basketball schools, and there are very few excellent players for Jack to choose.
……
After chatting with Jack for a while, Wang Xiao came to Wang Meng and Cheng Jie.
"Young man, how are you two learning English?"
Hearing Wang Xiao's voice, Wang Meng and Cheng Jie turned their heads one after another.
"Coach."
Hearing Wang Xiao's question, the two nodded one after another.
"We can communicate with our teammates now."
Basketball is a team sport, and communication skills are important.
The reason why Yi Jianlian has been unable to adapt to the NBA is that on the one hand, there are some problems with his own ability, on the other hand, because his playing style does not match the team's tactical system, and another important reason is that Yi Jianlian has not been able to learn fluent English for a long time.
If you can't communicate smoothly with your teammates, how can you get along well and cultivate a tacit understanding on the field?
Therefore, Wang Xiao still attaches great importance to the English learning of these two people, and later got rid of Jack to find a Chinese international student at Harvard University and hired the other party to teach English to the two with a high salary.
