Chapter 55: A New Team
Let's be a local tyrant and be a pot friend with me~~)
Gan Guoyang stood so stupidly on the public balcony, but the peeping erotic pictures in his mind always lingered.
As a person from an era of extremely developed media and an all-round open-mindedness, this kind of thing is not shameless for Gan Guoyang.
The omnipotent Internet has not yet been popularized at this time, and as Gan Guoyang, who has experienced the magic of the Internet, it is still easy to see things that are not suitable for public viewing.
Slowly, if you see more, it will naturally become less and more strange.
However, Gan Guoyang's thoughts are a combination of two lifetimes, with experience and insight beyond his age, but his body is a real 18-year-old, just the age of blood and strength. And this peeping through the crack in the door is completely different from watching it on a computer.
Therefore, on the balcony, Gan Guoyang took deep breaths again and again, thinking about some things about basketball and learning, and finally suppressed the idea of running to take a look in his mind, and at the same time cooled down the heat in his abdomen.
Even so, Gan Guoyang always felt that there was always a slight moan in his ears, and he didn't know if it was a sound from the room or an auditory hallucination in his own head.
After about 10 minutes, Gan Guoyang saw that the number of people downstairs began to slowly increase, all of them were parents with luggage and electrical appliances to send their children to the dormitory.
At this moment, the door of his dormitory opened, and the couple who had been in the dormitory for most of the day without closing the door also walked out of the dormitory.
The man was wearing a thin white T-shirt at this time, leaning against the door, revealing strong arms, his chest was also unusually broad and strong, and he looked very handsome from a distance, just like Marlon Brando in "The Docker".
The woman was still holding the man's neck, and the long hair tied up was now lowered and draped over the red and pink long-sleeved shirt she was wearing.
Gan Guoyang looked at the back of the girl, and seemed to be able to see the bumpy curves inside through the clothes, as well as the snow-white buttocks hugged by jeans.
The two lingered in front of the door for a few more moments before the blonde turned and said goodbye to the man.
When the girl passed by the staircase, Gan Guoyang saw clearly that this was a typical American sweet girl with big eyes, a high nose bridge, and sexy thick lips. The round face has some baby fat, but when paired with her plump and round figure, it is indeed full of feminine charm.
When she went downstairs, she seemed to catch a glimpse of Gan Guoyang out of the corner of her eye, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, she should have been taken aback by Gan Guoyang's height and complexion.
Gan Guoyang felt as if he was being looked at by this woman from top to bottom in an instant, and then she seemed to throw a small eyebrow at Gan Guoyang and disappeared at the staircase.
After this heart-pounding and glamorous accident, the rest of the story seemed to be uneventful.
The guy who did good things in the dormitory with women in broad daylight was Pruss Champmoss, Forrest Gump's new roommate, and he was also a sports student on a sports scholarship, but he was a swimmer.
There is no obstacle for the two of them to get along, Qian Mos is not interested in Gan Guoyang's racial identity at all, the only thing he is interested in is women.
As soon as Gan Guoyang put his things down, he began to take out magazines like "Palyboy" and "Private" to share with Gan Guoyang.
Gan Guoyang knew that those who practiced sports were generally physically fit and had a strong libido, like when he was in the Palo Alto Vikings, Vicis and Williams liked to discuss women's issues on weekdays, and communicate privately with * magazines.
For Gan Guoyang, he doesn't like to read these books, newspapers and magazines, not because he is high, but because these things are really weak, and he is not interested.
But when two big boys are together, this way is really the best way to break the diaphragm.
Because Chammos is a native of Los Angeles, he came to the school early, arranged everything in the dormitory, and of course did some of the things he loved by the way.
In addition to not having military training, they also have to report to student advisors, attend opening ceremonies, accept invitations from clubs, and so on.
Gan Guoyang doesn't care much about these, he is most concerned about the basketball team.
The specific schedule of classes will not officially start until the following week, and the new recruits and training of the sports team will start in advance on the afternoon of the first day of school.
As a star player in high school, Gan Guoyang, who has a strong psychological quality and is considered a star player, couldn't help but feel a little nervous on the way to the gymnasium alone.
After all, this is UCLA, a giant in the history of American college basketball, a prestigious school with a tradition of super centers, and an invincible division that has won seven consecutive championships.
Gan Guoyang was excited when he thought that he was going to join such a team, but he was still apprehensive even more.
Unlike Palo Alto High School, the UCLA University Basketball team's home and practice arena are separated, and they have a dedicated training hall.
Walking on UCLA's huge and beautiful campus, Gan Guoyang looked at the basketball training hall not far away, and felt that he didn't realize that it was a gymnasium when he first came here in the summer.
From the appearance, with red brick walls, large triangular roofs, 16-panel large glass windows, and curved holes, this gymnasium looks like a large memorial hall at all.
Anyway, in Gan Guoyang's view, those old buildings in the United States look like churches or memorial halls, and he slowly got used to it.
When he walked to the gymnasium, he found that he seemed to be alone nearby, could it be that he had come too early?
But when he walked to the gate, he heard the sound of basketball slapping and sneakers rubbing against the floor from inside the gymnasium, and knew that there might be veteran players playing and training inside.
Gan Guoyang hadn't heard such a familiar voice for a while, and he couldn't help but feel more cordial. So he took a deep breath and stepped up the steps into the gymnasium.
"Hello, hello!"
"Pass, pass, hurry, hurry! Don't stick to the ball, get me moving, get moving! โ
"Defend and defend, Jackson, you're too slow! Timely defense! โ
"Protect the rebounds, protect the rebounds, Wright! Watch your card slots! โ
"Hello... Hello? โ
After Gan Guoyang entered the gymnasium, he saw a group of people training in a half-time three-on-three confrontation, and a black man in a pale yellow shirt next to him was commanding loudly, who should be the head coach of the team.
Gan Guoyang walked not far behind the head coach and said "hello" many times, but the coach turned a deaf ear and still loudly instructed the players to train.
And no one on the field cares that a new big man has come to the stadium, and he is still playing in full swing.
Gan Guoyang felt very unhappy at this moment, this is the first day of school, in any case, it is also an important day for the team to welcome new players and replenish fresh blood, but the coach is still here to practice confrontation for the old players, ignoring the new players.
"Hello Mr. Coach, I'm Sunnyยท Gump, I'm here to report today. Gan Guoyang didn't care whether he was polite or impolite, and walked directly to the black coach and said to him.
"Move, try to pull away on both sides, pull away, the speed of the inside line should be fast, it's you Foster! โฆโฆ I know, wait a minute. The black coach obviously knew that Gan Guoyang was coming just now, and when Gan Guoyang came to him to talk to him, he just squinted his eyes and continued to direct the training on the field, and then said to Gan Guoyang to let him wait for a while.
As soon as he arrived at the team, Gan Guoyang touched a gray nose, the coach ignored it, and the veteran players concentrated on the game, so he had to sit down on the bench on the sidelines, watching the seniors play, while waiting for the other new players to arrive.
With the older batch of seniors, including Mark Eaton, all graduated, there are only six veteran players left in UCLA.
Gan Guoyang watched their confrontation on the court and found that college basketball is indeed different from high school, even if it is a three-on-three game, there are a lot of running, air cutting, and card positions.
The ball also moves quite quickly, and there is basically no one sticking to the ball, which is very different from street ball.
Moreover, judging from their running and jumping ability, their physical fitness is quite good, after all, they can enter a college basketball team like UCLA, and they are all stars in the team in high school.
About 10 minutes later, the other new players arrived at the stadium.
They were all treated the same as Gan Guoyang, treated coldly, didn't listen to or asked, and were all sent to the bench to be spectators.
In addition to Gan Guoyang, there are 5 other people, so that Gan Guoyang has a total of six, and together with the old players, a team of 12 people is formed.
A few newcomers sat together, you don't know me and I don't know you, but they quickly got along because of their common identity and entering the school in the same year.
In addition, the coach put a few people aside so unsalty, Gan Guoyang thought that this would be a UCLA tradition? Leave the newcomers to dry and let them contact and communicate on their own.
Gan Guoyang is also a celebrity in the California high school basketball world, and he is also a star player who led the team to the finals of the second division league, and he is still a yellow race, so the other five people all know him.
It's a pity that Gan Guoyang doesn't know any of the other people, and except for Knight's people, the other four are not high school graduates from the second-tier league.
"Gan, it's amazing that you guys were able to defeat the Sacramento Dragons, and when our school played against them, they weren't any match at all." That Knight's high school was in the Sacramento district.
"You mean the team that 'Flash' Johnson is on? That guy was really amazing, but unfortunately he missed the free throw and I killed him. โ
"I know, I know, it's almost a legend, I heard that you cast some spell when he made free throws, and then he missed two free throws!"
"Yes, I did say something, but it's a secret, and it shouldn't work again next time." Gan Guoyang pretended to be mysterious and said that the sentence "wooden floors do not conduct electricity" was just a flash of inspiration for him.
Although other people are not high school players in the second league, they have also heard of Gan Guoyang as a player, and several people chatted on the bench.
"You're so bored that you don't know how to find a basketball to practice? Instead, like those long-tongued women, they are talking here endlessly! โ
At this time, the black coach's voice was no longer yelling at the veteran players who were fighting on the field, but turned to the six new players sitting on the bench.
The six people immediately closed their mouths and stood up from the stool at the same time, it seemed that the training on the field was over, and the coach beckoned everyone to gather in the center of the court.
Twelve people stood on the field, Gan Guoyang found that he was no longer the tallest one, there was an old player in the team wearing a No. 55 jersey, and his height should have reached 7 feet, Gan Guoyang could only reach his eyes.
"Today is the first day of school and the first day of training for the basketball team. No flowers, no applause, no fans, no cheerleaders, just you players. You may wonder why this is UCLA, why is the basketball team like this? Why didn't anyone come to give us a welcome party? Tell us a little bit about UCLA's glorious history? Then I tell you, no, no. UCLA's history hangs on that wall. The black coach said, pointing to the wall behind the basket.
Gan followed his hand and saw a large blue flag hanging on the wall, embroidered with the years in which UCLA won nine NCAA championships from 1964 to 1975, including a seven-game winning streak.
"That's the history of UCLA, and he's right in front of you. If you think you can make history, then I'm sorry, I think you're in the wrong place, and all you can do is continue UCLA's success! "The coach is like an orator, encouraging the hearts of these new players.
Gan Guoyang disagrees with this, history is used to create and change, as a time-traveler, so far he has not witnessed the real transformation of historical events, and now, in UCLA, he may be able to really change history.
Because UCLA has not won an NCAA title since 1975, they only made it to the Finals in the 1976 title defense season, but lost the title defense.
And this year, in the 1981-1982 season, they didn't even make it to the round 48 of the United States (there were only 48 spots in the NCAA national at the time).
The team has entered the valley, and now is the time to throw away the baggage of history, boldly blaze new trails, and create new glories.
Gan Guoyang thought about a completely different tone from his coach, and imagined in his mind that he would lead the team to win the NCAA championship, and then he would be the third super center in UCLA history after Abdul-Jabbar and Wharton!
"I hope that when I speak in the future, everyone below will listen carefully, especially you, yellow boy. I'm not joking, so I hope you don't have an overly happy look on your face. โ
At this time, Gan Guoyang realized that the coach had walked in front of him, this black man with a long face who looked like an octopus brother, looked up at Gan Guoyang with a serious face.
Obviously, when he was speaking, he saw Gan Guoyang as if he had won the lottery, the corners of his mouth were upturned and his eyes were shining, and he didn't know what good things to think about.
"I'm sorry, Coach, I..."
"My name is Larry Farmar and I know your name is Gan, a Palo Alto High School player who almost won the California Division 2 championship. But remember, in basketball, a little bit is a lot worse! โ
Coach Famar's words were right, but it was only the first day that he gave Gan Guoyang a political lesson, which really made him a little unhappy.
Although Bellman often taught Gan Guoyang a lesson in the past, and even spoke more ugly, Gan Guoyang could hear that it contained Bellman's ardent hope for Gan Guoyang.
And this coach spoke with obvious thorns, as if he wanted to give Gan Guoyang a dismissal.
"Yes, I see!" Gan Guoyang had to respond to this Coach Famar with a straight face.
"Okay guys, I'm sure we don't need to do anything boring to introduce ourselves, basketball players should get to know their friends and foes on the court. So, today let's play a new and old match, so that everyone can get to know each other! โ
