In the closed stadium, except for the scouts who sat in the stands and the few media outlets, there were no more fans to watch.

The atmosphere was quiet, and only the sound of squirming could be heard.

The players were warming up on the sidelines, and there was both nervousness and excitement when they saw the scouts in the stands.

Andrew Wiggins pressed his leg next to Deng Hongfei, "Are you ready?" Chris? ”

"Of course, I feel empowered now, what about you?" Deng Hongfei asked rhetorically.

"Of course I don't have a problem, my talent is the best, no doubt about it."

He grinned at the toad, and his words were filled with confidence.

"Good."

Deng Hongfei shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything, he deliberately emptied his brain and didn't think much about anything.

The more I think about it, the more nervous I get.

"It's begun, it's begun."

Not far away, all the work is ready, and a lot of physical testing equipment has been placed on the field.

And those from the U.S. team also came to the stadium, and this was the first time the two teams had met.

Jabari Parker and Wiggins are like the two shining brightest in the stars, and many cameras are focused on them.

The twin stars shine brightly and shine brightly.

The physical test is mainly to test the three data of height, weight, and arm span.

Those professional scouts can analyze how much of an advantage a player's physical condition is from static data.

One by one, the players have been tested on the field.

The scouts on the scene got first-hand data from various sources.

In addition to Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker and others, they all invariably noticed Deng Hongfei's data.

He is 6.4 feet (196 cm) tall, has an arm span of 6.8 feet (209 cm), and weighs 196.2 pounds (89 kg).

The two data of height and arm span have both increased compared with those in China, and Deng Hongfei has already seen this in the king of training system.

+13 reach height difference, excellent static data.

Keep in mind that Andrew Wiggins' stats in these two are 6.8 feet and 7.0 feet.

The difference in reach height is only +6.

"This Chinese can take a look."

Many scouts have the same idea in their minds.

Of course, static data is only one aspect, and the performance on the field is what matters.

For the next four or five days, the world team and the American team each entered the group training.

In the past few days, the aerobic intensity is very high, and Deng Hongfei has focused on supplementing some nutritional supplements to prevent muscle breakdown.

It's just that Coach Roylana is obviously not optimistic about Deng Hongfei, and when explaining the tactics, he puts the latter into the substitute team for arrangement.

He had the details of each person in his hands, and he had a good idea of what each person might have.

And a Chinese who has been seriously injured and has no good record is obviously not in the list of his key players.

The Nike Summit is a high-level competition, and he doesn't want the world team to lose under his leadership.

——

April 20, 2013.

At the Rose Garden Arena in Portland, the main game of the Nike Basketball Summit has finally kicked off.

There is no live broadcast in China, but there are still many Chinese fans who follow the game over the wall to ESPN-2 to watch.

They hope to see what kind of performance Deng Hongfei can have in this group of newcomers, and whether he can continue Wang Zelin's brave performance last year.

In the stands, not only the spectators and scouts of many NBA teams, but also the head coaches of some teams and even NBA stars arrived at the scene.

Their eyes fell on the players who were still warming up on the sidelines.

There is no doubt that Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon and other already well-known stars will be the focus of scrutiny.

The moment the starting list of the world team was released, the Chinese fans who finally climbed over the wall to watch it were instantly disappointed.

Centre-forward: No. 12 Muhammadou Jutay, France

Power forward: No. 14 Livio Keane Charles, France

Small forward: No. 8 Andrew Wiggins, Canada

Shooting guard: No. 10 Sergey Karashov, Russia

Point guard: No. 4 Dennis Schroeder, Germany

Without Deng Hongfei, at a glance, the latter was sitting at the end of the bench, and compared with the high-spirited appearance of the first five tigers who were about to play with their belts tied, they looked a little lonely.

On the other hand, the starting lineup of the U.S. team was also made public.

Center: No. 13 Julius Randle

Power forward: No. 12 Jabari Parker

Small forward: No. 11 Aaron Gordon

Shooting guard: No. 7 Andre Harrison

Point guard: No. 4 Casey Hill

Quite an explosive roster, many of this year's NBA hot rookies, and a considerable number of them are likely to appear in the NBA All-Star Game in the 13-14 season.

"Bastard, what a broken coach."

Far away in China, Ren Qiuming did not calmly grab the mineral water bottle and threw it on the ground and scolded.

The same situation appeared on the faces of Zhang Tong and others.

"Come on."

Shu Xin was so nervous that she clasped her fingers to support her jaw, and her heart was pounding, as if she was a member of the competition, which was even more emotional than Deng Hongfei.

Countless pairs of eyes were focused on the only eastern face on the field.

Deng Hongfei was not surprised that he failed to get the chance to start, and his mood was quite indifferent.

He's actually the oldest in the group, and he's the right age when he signed up, but in March, he's already celebrating his 20th birthday.

Compared to the 18- and 19-year-old star, his potential is a bit lacking in the eyes of Roylana.

The starting five tigers on both sides returned to their positions one after another, and the referee on duty briefly explained to all the players.

Jumping the ball in the middle circle, the U.S. team gets the ball first.

Aaron Gordon received a high-profile pass from Casey Hill, jumped high under the basket and hit a layup to open the scoring with two interference layups.

The ball showed great physicality.

But turning around, the Internationals responded with a sideline shot from the U.S. after a foul by the U.S. that was answered by a left-handed Karashov jumper near the free throw line.

The momentum is all good.

Deng Hongfei's eyes stayed on Andrew Wiggins, and this champion gave him the feeling that his legs seemed to be springed.

It starts as if it's going to break away from gravity.

Very enviable athleticism.

It's just that Wiggins didn't get too good a chance to perform in the opening game, but Schroder got into the groove first, and after he shook continuously at the top of the arc, he directly stiffened up to hit a three-point shot against the defender, which immediately made the morale of the world team overwhelm the American team.

Trailblazers legend Roy sat on the sidelines, although the competitive state after the serious injury is no longer as brave as it used to be, but this does not affect Roy in everyone's minds is still the Huang Mamba who sees God and kills God, and sees Buddha kill Buddha.

Trail Blazers star Aldridge sat beside him with his hands folded over his chest and asked with interest; "Who do you think will win today?"

"I'm bullish on Team USA."

Roy said seriously: "It's just that there is a player on the world team who can do miracles. ”

"Who? Wiggins? Aldridge raised his eyebrows slightly.

Roy shook his head lightly and pointed to the end of the bench, "Chris Deng." ”
