Chapter Thirty-Eight: Yao Ming's News

In the studio on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, because Li Mojie's popularity is too high, the penguins made a lot of money in the previous live broadcast. So CCTV also broadcast the game live, not only sending a luxurious lineup: Su Qun and Yu Jia partners, but also inviting Yao Ming, a retired rocket giant, to be a guest.

"What do you think, Da Yao?" Su Qun asked.

"Well, I've also heard from my former scout friends on the Rockets, and I've also seen the video of his game, so I still know him well." Yao Ming replied in his deep male voice.

"Oh? What do Rockets scouts say about him? Yu Jia asked curiously.

"If he's black, then when he finishes the Pacific 12 Conference, all the teams on the edge of the playoffs will mess up for him!" Yao Ming sat on the chair and calmly said a news that stunned everyone!

"Shhh Is it so highly rated? Su Qun opened his mouth wide and said in surprise.

"This evaluation was made by Olajuwon, Magic, Duncan, and James back then!" Yu Jia also straightened her back, leaned over and said excitedly.

In the 2005-06 season, Jeremy Lin led Palo Alto High School in California to a 32-1 record and won the state championship, while Lin himself averaged 15.1 points, 7.1 assists, 6.2 rebounds and 5.0 steals per game.

However, despite being named to the All-State First Team and being named Northern California Division II Player of the Year, some local schools like Stanford and UCLA have turned a blind eye to the 6-foot-3 Lin.

"Well, I think the most obvious thing in my mind is because I'm Asian-American, and that identity, you know, is a completely different situation...... I think that's an obstacle," Jeremy Lin said in an interview with Charlie Ross of the "60 Minutes" talk show.

"I mean...... It's an old rule. ”

Lin eventually joined Harvard, where he was twice named to the Ivy League First Team, but he wasn't drafted by an NBA team after leaving college, but after an impressive summer league performance, Lin signed with the Warriors in 2010.

So, did Jeremy Lin's failure to be drafted by an NBA team also play a factor in this because of race?

"I think the answer to that question is yes if you really feel it," NBA commissioner David Stern told Rose in an interview, according to CBS News.

"But if it's personal...... I don't know if he's been discriminated against because he's from Harvard or if he's discriminated against because he's Asian," Stern said with a laugh.

In fact, Li Mojie's prediction is so high this year, I have to say that I still need to thank Jeremy Millin for his performance last year.

"Yes, I didn't expect it, this Mo Jie's talent is really high, I have to say that height still accounts for a large part of my election, but his height does not have much advantage, but he was still selected as the champion." Yao Giant then exhaled and sighed, but then gave his blessing: "I hope he can far surpass me, be able to play in the league for a longer time, and get a lot of honors like Kobe!" ”

But Coach Neil off the field was not in the mood to sigh, but he sweated again when he saw this, and stomped his feet on the sidelines in a hurry and shouted: "When defending, pull away, open up space, run, and create one-on-one opportunities for Mo Jie!" ”

This University of Louisville's single defense and co-defense ability is the best among so many teams I have seen, and it has also grasped the key point of the Trojans, relying too much on Li Mojie's breakthrough ability and weak inside. There is no way, I can only entrust it to Li Mojie, who is getting stronger and stronger in singles, and use him to break the surface with points, attract the opponent's bag, and then create a gap.

This time, after receiving a pass from Hood at the top of the arc, Lee tried to step with the ball, and the Trojans opened up enough space for him to play alone.

The coaches of both sides also stood on the sidelines and watched the match-up that could decide the outcome of the game.

"Appeared, one-on-one solo between the captain of the Cardinals and the core of the Trojans!" Kenny from the ESPN booth shouted excitedly. This 16-in-8 game is the most watched game in these games, so it is natural to send Kenny and Brin to comment.

Li Mojie was ordered to play this single, still the signature tentative step, first took the ball, took a small tiptoe step forward with his right foot, and his shoulder shook to the right, Payton experienced to open his arms to firmly lock Li Mojie, and was not fooled. However, Li Mojie suddenly pulled the ball back with his right hand and dribbled the ball behind his back, and the moment he got close to the defense, he lowered his body's center of gravity, reduced the time the ball was out of his hand, and avoided dropping the ball.

"Shake and Back" Fancy Back Dribble! The DJs on and off the field exclaimed!

I saw Payton, who quickly got rid of the defense, and made a successful three-step layup when Gorgui was making up for the defense. 4:7

But Coach Rick was unhurried and shouted from the sidelines: "Payton is doing a good job, keep an eye on his waist and keep following him!" ”

Coming back, Russ advanced to the frontcourt, only to see the Cardinals' players immediately methodically blocking, running, Russ passed to Jill, Gill accurately sent the ball to the gap, Will 60 degrees on the left side of the three-point shot, the action was very elegant, the ball hollowed into the net. 4 to 10

Neil immediately called a timeout in anger, these guys are still unreliable, offensive and defenseunreliable, are they really going to fold here today?

Su Qun on the commentary platform on the other side of the Pacific said with a wry smile: "The game has just begun, and the Trojans have dug a big hole, hoping that they can catch it back." ”

The first thing Neil did was to replace Richardson, who was inattentive in the opening and a mess in defense, and still played tactics, "Ben you go up." ”

After coming back, after blocking and dismantling with Li Mojie, Anderson finally got a chance to shoot on the periphery, Charles made a cover for him, Charles's size is more suitable for blocking and dismantling, but Anderson shot more hastily, although he dodged Jill's block, and the ball bounced out of the frame.

The Cardinals attacked, and Lee Mojie had his eye on Payton.

"Oh, can't you just be one-on-one with me like a man? Just like I just did! Seeing Peyton, he still remembered his tactics and ran around to consume Li Mojie's physical strength, and Li Mojie said excitedly.

"You still want to be chosen? Want to play in the NBA? Give up, don't even dare to hit me, no NBA will choose a coward like you! Li Mojie deliberately mocked.

Peyton was finally enraged at this moment, and his black face became even darker, "Fake, look at how Lao Tzu beats you!" ”

He is also a 21-year-old young man, although he was indeed told by the coach that this game only needs to consume Li Mojie as much as possible, but the opposite side is this year's top favorite, what better chance to prove himself than this? What's more, how many people who play in the NCAA don't want to go to the NBA to earn Franklin? Running around like this all the time, how can you prove your strength to be selected by scouts?

So Payton didn't pass the ball this time, but used his back body technique to start singleing Li Mojie, but after discovering it, his strength couldn't squeeze out, he was not tall enough, his arm span was not long enough, and the direction of turning was also recognized by Li Mojie, and he missed the forced layup, but was picked up by Charles for a rebound.

Coach Rick chuckled inwardly and shouted loudly to pay attention to tactics.

Lee picked up the ball and passed it to Hood, who passed it to Benn, who was on a fast break

Benn bumped away with his body to receive the ball from Will, took three steps from the momentum, jumped up on the right side of the penalty line, fully stretched his body, and threw the ball into the basket with a beautiful tomahawk dunk in the air! 6 to 10.

Kenny exclaimed, "The Trojans came back from a timeout with a nice dunk, and are they finally going to fight back?" The game is now starting to look good, pretty! ”

Neil stood up from the sidelines and applauded, and the substitutes cheered on Benn.

The Cardinals attacked, and the outside ball was given to Russ. Russ has relied on his explosive play, and this season has been a breakout season for Russ Smith, who averaged 18.9 points per game as the University of Louisville's top scorer. In the eyes of most experts, Smith is an excellent scoring weapon, full of energy and energy when playing on the court, and is a very passionate and driven player. Smith has a keen nose for slashing points, his dribble penetration is a threat, he can be very lethal to the opposition's interior, and Smith's first step is very fast, which is usually very useful when he passes. Coupled with his small stature of only 6 feet, Smith can run quite fast on the court.

Russ leaned on Hood with his back and turned sharply to the right, without any feints, just fast and hard. This method is especially effective against Hood. Russ spun around, took a step to get rid of it, and jumped up with the ball. Under the basket, Charles was a little slower to make up the defense, and Russ continued to momentum and threw the ball into the basket with one hand. 6 to 12

Charles didn't cover it, only rubbed Russ lightly in the air, and the referee blew a foul and made a 2+1 free throw.

Everyone in the Trojans bench stood up, and Neil stood on the sidelines waving at the referee, very unhappy with the decision. But the referee was indifferent. Rasgar hit a free throw, 6-13. When defending back, Russ raised his fist high with an arrogant stance.

Cardinal fans cheered.

The tone of the on-site commentator was also as if the Cardinals had won the game. "In the opening game, the Cardinals played the Trojans without fighting back, and even the top pick Mojay Lee was lost under the cardinals' iron wall."

The Trojans attacked, still playing blocking and dismantling with Anderson, the others pulled away, Li Mojie received the ball and ran directly to the right for a few steps, and then suddenly a cross with his left foot, Payton subconsciously pounced to the right, and then Li Mojie easily broke through and scored an inside layup. 8:13
