Chapter 174: Glove Peyton

There was once a man who won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award as the only point guard in history!

He's none other than Hall of Famer, Seattle SuperSonics' All-Time Player — Gary Payton!

And he entered the NBA in 1990, and he has just passed his rookie period at this moment, and according to the original trajectory of history, he will complete his transformation this season (93-94) and truly become a star!

Not only did his personal stats rise steadily, he was selected to the All-Star team for the first time in his career, but also made the All-NBA three-team and the All-Defensive team for one time!

And this offseason, as a contracted player under Nike, he also came to Japan with Nike to participate in business activities!

Specifically, bring goods!

However, it is obvious that Peyton is not very well-known in Japan, and the audience present basically does not know him!

But except for Wang Zhengyang, as a defensive player in his previous life, Payton's style of play has always been the object of his admiration and imitation!

I can't say idol, but I can't be regarded as half a master!

"Let's welcome the star from the Seattle SuperSonics, Gary Payton~" The host exaggerated the atmosphere and loudly introduced Payton's name!

"Oh!" The audience let out bursts of exclamation!

Although many people probably don't know what a supersonic team is, but at this time the applause is enough!

"Kuniciva! I'm Peyton, I'm from the United States, and I love Japan~" Peyton greeted everyone in broken Japanese, and sure enough, there was a lot of cheers!

It seems that this trick is common in Asian countries!

"As the guest of honor for this competition, I will not only give prizes on behalf of Nike, but also have surprises!" Payton said as he took off his long-sleeved track suit, revealing the supersonic jersey inside!

"That's a heads-up challenge from a member of the championship team!" Peyton said, making a defiant gesture.

As the interpreter translated his words, the scene was a sensation!

What is the concept of playing against current NBA players? What an opportunity you never come across in a lifetime!

And the members of the Momotaro team, who are the parties involved, are all surprised, and they didn't expect this kind of thing at all.

Only Wang Zhengyang is still calm, and this routine has basically become a necessary part of every business activity in later generations!

Commonly known: "Go to Nima's basketball dream!" ”

The staff has started to communicate with the players of the Momotaro team, and basically the rule is to score three balls per person, and then Payton defends!

Others may regard Payton as an ordinary NBA star, but Wang Zhengyang understands what the other party relies on to become famous! That's defense!

Even if Payton is not at his peak at this time, his defensive ability is definitely at a first-class level!

Under his defense, play three balls?

Not to mention the group of amateur players in the Momotaro team, even if you ask the current members of the Japanese national team to come, not necessarily everyone will score a goal!

Basically, though, Peyton will definitely release the water!

And the game also has a lottery, that is, when a goal is scored, Payton will give away a pair of basketball shoes to the audience!

Lottery, it's possible for everyone!

This time, the Momotaro team was unanimously supported by the audience, after all, everyone is now a community of interests!

Looking at his teammates who were talking excitedly, Wang Zhengyang shook his head helplessly.

"Poor baby, I don't know what you're going to face!"

The tournament will start soon, and according to the plan, the famous "Minowa no Gun" will appear first!

I saw the mustachioed store manager wearing a No. 00 jersey, and his expression seemed to be serious, but he was actually nervous standing on the court.

Peyton, on the other hand, was relaxed, and in his opinion it was just a game.

"Relax, buddy~" Peyton soothed the mustachioed store manager in his black tone.

But it's useless, because I don't understand!

Seeing this, Peyton could only shake his head helplessly, in his opinion, the uncle on the other side who was now a little trembling, even if he didn't guard against him, he probably wouldn't be able to hit!

Sure enough, the mustachioed store manager dribbled the ball twice, and then jumped directly to shoot, Peyton just pretended to rush forward, and didn't even bother to raise his hand!

But the mustachioed store manager was still taken aback, and the basketball naturally lacked strength, and the three sticks flew out of bounds!

"Hahaha!" The audience let out a good-natured laugh, after all, it seemed normal to them!

Peyton also spread his hands and signaled that it had nothing to do with him!

And for the next two balls, the mustachioed store manager can still only throw the ball on the spot, after all, he has old arms and legs, and he wants to break through but has more than enough strength to do so!

This left Peyton without even a chance to release the water!

The first round of heads-up is over, and Minowa's gun is a fiasco!

But at this time, the mustachioed store manager breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was flushed, as if he had done something terrible!

And the second person to play is Yokoichi Aida, who is known as the sentinel of Lingnan!

At this time, Hikoichi Aida is obviously in a better state than the mustachioed store manager, after all, no matter how good he is, he is also an active high school player!

"Hey, come on!" Peyton encouraged, as always.

"Three grams of oil!" Hikochi Aida immediately thanked him, and if he hadn't been holding a basketball in his hand, he would probably have bowed and thanked him seriously.

At the beginning of the game, Hikoichi Aida skillfully dribbled the basketball and wanted to break through Payton's defense!

Seeing this scene, Peyton immediately cheered up.

Hikoichi continued to dribble under his crotch, showing good basic skills, and at the same time thinking about tactics in his mind!

"The opponent is taller than him, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to shoot directly, all you can rely on is feints!"

Hikochi, who had made up his mind, began to lean down and dribble alternately, left, right, left, right, suddenly took a step forward, shook a shot, pulled back, and jumped to shoot!

Wang Zhengyang's eyes lit up in the field, Yanyi's shot this time was extremely fast, very beautiful!

Unfortunately, he was facing NBA-level defense, and Payton didn't even react, just slapped his long arm and the basketball flew out.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Aida's mouth couldn't help twitching.

"Sure enough, this is a professional player!"

Compared with Wayne's half-player, Payton's slightly revealed strength is eye-catching!

In the next ball, Hikoichi still wanted to break through, but this time Payton didn't stay in place, but directly pasted it.

As if dancing ballroom dance, Aida Hikochi was surrounded in his body, and at this moment, Hikoichi-san couldn't adapt at all, so he could only spin clumsily in place!

And the empathetic Peyton, as soon as he slapped his little hand, the basketball that Hikoto Aida was trying to protect lost control and rolled out of bounds!

With the last ball left, Hikoichi Aida didn't give up, he slowly retreated outside the three-point line, intending to accelerate to the basket!

Who knew that Peyton didn't follow, but instead stood in place and made a gesture to Hikoichi!

Although the language is not understood, the meaning is still understood by Hikoichi Aida, which means to let him vote three points!

This blatant release of water, if it is replaced by a heads-up between other people, will only make people feel insulted!

But considering the difference in strength between the two in this game, that's Peyton's gentlemanly demeanor!

Sure enough, the audience in the audience let out bursts of cheers and cheered for Hikoichi Aida!

"Goon, Akainu!"

Hikoichi Aida took a deep breath, calmly shot outside the three-point line, and the basketball drew an arc, smashed on the edge of the basket, and bounced out!

"Alas~" The whole stadium let out a huge sigh, and even Peyton shook his head in disappointment!

Seeing this, Hikoto was about to leave, but at this time, Peyton called him and made a surprising move!

"Hey, buddy, one more ball!" While making a gesture, throw the basketball again and again Yokochi Aida!

And waved his hands and asked the audience for applause!

"Come on, don't throw in the towel!"

"Come on, it's over!"

Hikochi Aida, who was holding the ball, looked at the referee at a loss, only to find that the other party also nodded to him encouragingly!

And Wang Zhengyang shouted directly behind his back: "Yanyi, come on!" ”

At this moment, the huge pressure turned into motivation, and Hikoto Aida stood firmly outside the three-point line with a basketball in his hand.

Look at the frame in front of you, adjust your posture, bend your knees and arms, and exert your wrists, and the basketball will spin and jump out from your fingertips!

"Huh!" In the expectant eyes of the audience, the basketball obediently drilled into the basket!

"Wow~" Suddenly the whole stadium turned into a sea of joy, everyone jumped, cheered, and high-fived each other!

Hikoichi Aida raised his arms and roared, and Peyton rushed in front of him for the first time, hugged him, and faced the audience!

"Akainu! Akainu! Akainu! At this moment, Hikoichi accepted the cheers like a hero!

Wang Zhengyang also applauded with the atmosphere!

Maybe that's the charm of basketball!
