The Mercedes-Benz van carrying Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun drove to the gate of the training base of the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team next to Yanxi Lake.

The rain in the evening had basically stopped, Mercedes-Benz stopped, Yu Xiaochun lowered the window of the passenger seat, and rushed to the security room in the distance to ask if there was anyone.

After a long time, I saw a figure get up, slowly open the door of the security room, and walk out.

"Hello master."

"Who?" The figure put his hand on his head to cover the rain as he approached and asked.

"Hello master, it's me!" Yu Xiaochun saw that the security master who came was the one who stopped him when he went to the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team to look for "Yuris Yang" almost a year ago, and waved at the other party.

The master took a few steps closer, squinted his eyes and looked at it, only to recognize Xiaochun: "You guy?!" Are you coming back? Why are you coming back, don't try to steal our players again! "As he spoke, he had to take three steps and make two steps to rush up to the theoretical contest.

Fortunately, at this time, Yang Yiming opened the door of the back row and drilled out to solve the siege.

"Yiming, it's you back!"

"That's right." Yang Yiming walked over and put his arm around the security master's shoulders. Embraced by an NBA star, who showed a shy smile that is rare for men of his age.

"Congratulations... Congratulations. ”

"Congratulations to me, Master Chen."

"Congratulations on playing so well in the United States and winning the championship. We're all proud of you. Master Chen was still laughing, he followed Yang Yiming to the co-pilot, and said to Xiaochun: "But if you hadn't stolen Yiming from our team, maybe Beikong could have won the championship this year." ”

"I really didn't steal it, it was Yang Yiming who was leaving..."Yu Xiaochun originally wanted to defend that he was selected by the Houston Rockets, but Yang Yiming stretched out his hand to signal to stop. Master Chen probably knew that Yu Xiaochun couldn't rely on this matter, so he reached out the window and patted the other party's shoulder, expressing his previous suspicions:

"Just kidding. Boy, thanks to you for lying to me to find Yiming, otherwise he would have played so well in the NBA, wouldn't he? ”

"That's not it, haha, thanks to him in America." Yang Yiming also laughed together.

"Are you looking for a teammate?" Master Chen asked.

"yes. I just came back to China and wanted to see them. ”

"Let's go." Master Chen took out a black remote control button from a bunch of keys on his waist and pressed it. The crossbar in front of the car was lifted into the air. "Get in the car, let's get in. They all seem to be here today. People must be eager to meet you, too. ”

Sure enough, they were all there.

Not only the domestic players of the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team are training in the stadium, but even several foreign aides of the team are also participating in the summer training together. Lebanese foreign player Wael Arach, known as Asian Dragic, white power forward Randolph, development league guard Pierre Jackson, who was just signed by North Control in the summer, and even former North Control player Stephen Marbury, who has retired, also happened to be on the scene, playing half-time 3-on-3 with others.

In order to train the domestic players of the North Control players, the coach deliberately divided all the domestic players into a group to form a team. The foreign players, led by Arach, Randolph and Marbury, were divided into a different group. Although the strength of domestic players is relatively weak, they have the advantage of numbers, and they can rely on the abundant physical strength of continuous replenishment to recover the disadvantage in ball skills.

When Yang Yiming arrived, the two sides had already fought for two rounds. Both games are played on a 50-point system, with the team that scores 50 points first and wins by more than 2 points wins. In the first game, the foreign players relied on experience to take the lead and won 51-34. However, in the second game, the advantage of the large number of domestic players was reflected, and they continued to make substitutions and constantly impact the foreign players team with only one substitute, and finally pulled back a game.

The two teams were tied by a big score, and just before the start of the third game of the tiebreaker, Marbury spotted Yang Yiming who was watching the game.

"Yiming, you're here too." Marbury wiped the sweat from his head, as if he was not surprised by Yang Yiming's arrival at all, and greeted him very blandly.

"yes, I've seen you fight for a while." Yang pointed to the scoreboard in the middle circle, where the score of 46-50 showed that Marbury's foreign players had just lost a game.

"Do you dare to join?" Marbury is standing in a street basketball park in New York, with wire cages, plastic flooring, and small wooden rebounds behind him, and the onlookers have changed from the players in North Control to his black guys. Yang Yiming is like a rookie newcomer to this territory, and he is accepting the invitation to challenge.

"Yes."

"Do you have any gear?" Marbury looked at Yang Yiming from top to bottom and smiled slyly. The latter is still wearing casual attire for long journeys, baseball cap T-shirt, shorts and beanie shoes underneath.

"Of course." Yang Yiming seemed to be ignited by Marbury's provocative eyes, and he did not show weakness and said, "Wait for me, my equipment is in the suitcase." Give me five minutes and I'll be back for a tiebreaker! ”

In less than three minutes, Yang Yiming changed into a light-colored jersey and basketball shoes and returned to the sidelines.

He joined the domestic team. For the sake of fairness, there are only three players left in the domestic player team besides him: Yang Yiming selected high school striker Wang Zheng, defender Yu Shulong, and a young striker He Xining born in 97. The four of them make up the domestic team, while Marbury, Randolph, Jackson and Arachchi are still in the squad of foreign players.

The coaching staff blew the whistle, and the three-on-three tiebreaker of 50 points began.

Yang Yiming warmed up on the sidelines first, made preparations, and let Wang Zheng, Yu Shulong, and He Xining appear first. Over there, Randolph, Marbury, and Arachchi starters. Yang Yiming warmed up on the side while secretly observing the situation on the field. From the end of the previous game to the start of this game, coupled with the time for Yang Yiming to temporarily join the equipment change, the foreign players got enough respite, relying on their physical and ball skills, they quickly took the lead, and the inside and outside lines fired one after another, taking an 11-3 lead.

The domestic player team saw that the situation was not good, so they simply used the simplest strategy to let the 2.20-meter center Wang Zheng not leave the paint area an inch, and all the balls were directly handed over to Wang Zheng. He didn't have a good hand at first, he was in a hurry to attack inside, and he missed a few shots with his back. But his teammates continued to feed him the ball - Wang Zheng gradually realized that he had an absolute advantage in height, and his shots were much more stable, and he began to slowly chisel in. Anyway, the domestic player team didn't need to cooperate too much, so Wang Zheng made full use of the 20-second offensive time of the three-on-three game to find the most suitable position and rhythm before throwing the ball steadily.

Relying on Wang Zheng's dominance on the inside, the domestic players quickly narrowed the score and chased the score to 15-18.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Marbury rested and gave way to Pierre Jackson, a new development league player introduced by the North Control men's basketball team this year and a former player who played for the Dallas Mavericks.

Jackson stepped on the court and quickly used the scoring prowess he had honed under the brutal competition of the Development League. He steals Wang Zheng first and hits a three-pointer from the outside. Then he swooped down on Shu Long twice and made a successful layup. His explosive physicality made his breakthrough unstoppable. When the domestic players were desperate and chose to make up for the defense, Jackson shared the ball for the first time and stuffed it to his teammate Randolph, who dunked successfully.

At 27-15, the foreign team scored more than half of the target of 50 points.

And the worst of the 3-on-3 game is happening to Jackson right now: he's the flashpoint on the court. When there is an undefended player in 3v3, the balance of defense will be broken in an instant!

The domestic team of players is completely underwhelmed.

And right now, they could be devastated!

As a last resort, Yang Yiming is going into battle!
