Counterpoint, he can escape the counterpoint, Downs? Doesn't that mean Downs is much more terrible than him? Okafor seemed to be on the verge of an outburst when he heard this, he reached out and grabbed Horgist's collar and said viciously, "I'm going to eat you alive on the offensive end tonight!" ”

Horgist was not flustered, nor was he in a hurry to break free, but calmly picked up a small cucumber from the plate and chewed it, chewing while saying, "Then you also have to be able to get the ball?" With a big star like Towns on your team, do other interior players still have a chance to attack with the ball? Downs fights three by himself before you can get one, right? ”

Okafor wanted to roar and tell Haugist that he was, but deep down he was very worried that what Hoggist said would come true tonight. Because he also found out that there are obviously no games recently, but I don't know why Downs's reputation is getting higher and higher, before the media called them peerless double pride, lifelong enemies, but now the tone of the media has changed, in many news Downs's strength has been described as surpassing himself, Okafor doesn't understand why, but he doesn't want to understand why, he just wants to prove that his strength is stronger than Downs!

Okafor silently loosened Haugist's collar and turned to pick food without saying a word, McCaw pulled Haugist aside and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?" He was still on the verge of an outburst just now, why did he suddenly calm down? Your plan to fan the flames has failed? ”

"No, on the contrary, it shows that he is angry to the extreme, and he has completely lost his mind, and I guess all he thinks about is how to fight Downs for the ball in the evening game." ”

"Are you so sure?" McCaw was in disbelief, and Okafor's performance alone couldn't tell as much as Hoggist was saying.

"It's so easy to figure out the psychology of high school students, otherwise can I brush five pairs on you?" Hougist pointed to his head, "Don't you remember what I told Moodier last night, you Americans are too straight to think and are too easy to be led into the ditch!" ”

"Big brother, why do I suddenly think that you are so scary, it seems that everything is under your control!"

"So you remember to listen to my instructions obediently, and don't go against me!" Hougist smiled and patted McCaw on the shoulder, and the two returned to their seats to continue their meal.

Russell was a little late in the toilet before lunch, and he didn't catch up with the scene, when he heard about the conflict between Okafor and Haugist in the restaurant, he hurried around to look for Hogist, but saw Hoggist playfully mixing mixed drinks in the drink section, he added three juices to the glass, and then mixed in a small half cup of Coke and Fanta, and this was not over, and finally Haugist actually pulled a flower with an ice cream machine on it.

"You're drinking this?" Russell asked, surprised.

Hoggist, who was playing a prank, was startled by Russell, and spilled a lot of "drinks" in his glass, staining the table. Hoggist raised his head and saw that it was Russell, and probably understood the reason why he was looking for himself, so he deliberately continued his conversation, not giving him a chance to change the topic again, "I invented this drink, fruit juice and cola ice cream, triple texture, it tastes great, you scared me and made me dirty here, go find me a napkin to help me clean up here!" ”

Russell turned back to the table to find a napkin, but at this time, Horgist raised the large glass in his hand, drank the "drink" in the cup, and quickly slipped away. Russell came over with a napkin to help Horgist clean the table, only to see an empty cup with unmelted ice cream hanging from the wall.

"This bastard, he must know what I'm looking for him for, and he actually ran away! I'm here to clean up the mess! It's really not a thing, he promised me to help Downs, why did he still quarrel with Okafor today, and say those things to stimulate him? ”

Hogist ran out of the restaurant without looking back, and said silently in his heart: "I'm sorry Russell, I can't tell you about my grand plan at the moment, and I don't want to make up nonsense to fool you, so let's avoid this kind of awkward meeting before the game!" ”

In the afternoon, Hougist took the players from the Western High School Stars to practice the interior defense, with Turner playing Towns and Okafor to attack on the inside, Poeltl and Pascal, who is 6 feet 9 inches tall. Siakam took turns trying to defend.

Surprisingly, Turner's attacking power seems to be on par with Downs Okafor, and although Turner does not have the ability to break through to the basket, he has a strong mid-range shot and back, and is a standard traditional center blank. Hogist was full of praise for his ability while feeding him the ball, "Dear Miles, why didn't you say it earlier if you have such a strong ability?" If I knew you were so strong, would I still need to be afraid of Downs and Okafor? ”

"So I said a long time ago that there was something terrible about the two of them? It's easy to prevent them! Turner spoke to intercept Haugist's pass, squeezed Poeltl and Siakam away with his back, and forced a jump to complete a dunk.

The more Hougist looked at it, the more he became more and more confused, and he began to have a bad idea about Turner, planning to fool Turner to the University of Las Vegas, Nevada. After nearly an hour of training, Haugerist asked everyone to take a hydration break first, and he quietly pulled Turner aside, politely handed over water and towels, and began to talk to Turner, "I said Miles, you are so strong, have you received invitations from many prestigious schools?" UNC？ UCLA？ Georgetown? Duke? Kentucky? Which school are you going to go to? ”

"How can I be so good! I haven't received a single invitation letter from these universities you mentioned! I was going to go to the University of Texas at Dallas, but the University of Texas at Dallas was too demanding for grades, my SAT score was not enough, and I had another test next month, so if I didn't reach the cut-off score, I would have to look for another school. ”

Howgist's heart blossomed happily when he heard this, but he still pretended to be very sorry for Turner and said, "It's a shame, it's a shame to miss you, those universities are a loss!" Otherwise, you can consider UNLV, this school has a much lower score than the University of Texas at Dallas, the team's tactical style is more free, it doesn't give you too many restrictions, you will have a lot of opportunities to perform on both offensive and defensive ends, and it is a strong contender for the NCAA championship next year, you can imagine that if you can step on the corpses of Towns and Okafor all the way to the NCAA championship throne, then your draft prospects will be brighter? ”

"You're inviting me to play with you in the NCAA?" Turner looked at Hougist with some surprise.

"Exactly! I'm very optimistic about you, and through today's training, I think you will be a new generation of basic skills in the league! If you go to another university, I'm worried that it will affect your growth. Hougist went out of his way to praise Turner.

was raised to Duncan's level by Hougist, which flattered Turner even more, "Your joke is a bit too big!" How can I compare with TD! ”

Hogist likes to seduce young men from good families, and he impassionedly stated: "A cook who doesn't want to be a general is not a good driver!" How can young people have no dreams and no pursuits? Even if you can't reach Duncan's heights in the future, what's wrong with using Duncan as an example to spur yourself? Besides, is Duncan's height really hard for you to reach? How do you know if you don't try? ”

Turner had dried the bowl of Howgist's chicken soup, a little upset, but not yet fully drunk, and he tried to correct Howgist, "Are you saying that a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier?" And I'm really far from Duncan's height! Duncan was already scheduled to be the top pick a year before he entered the draft, and many teams were messing around for him, but I couldn't even get an invitation to a good university! ”

"You're on the tip of the horns, Kobe Bryant's draft starting point is not high, isn't it the same as Duncan's 5 crowns in hand? It doesn't matter where you start, what you achieve is! Besides, whether it is a cook or a driver, you should have a dream of becoming a general! ”

"You allow me to think about it......" Turner was a little tempted.

"It's okay, you can think about it slowly, I'm sure you'll be able to make an easy decision after tonight!" Hougist patted Turner on the shoulder and got up to leave.

In the afternoon, the players of the Western High School Stars team ended the training at 4 o'clock according to the training method of Howgist, and returned to the room to make up for sleep after a full meal, which led to the warm-up training before the game in the evening, and the Western High School Stars were half an hour later than the Eastern High School Stars. If you really enter the league, you can't think of yourself as Jordan?

Half of the court on both sides practiced shooting, Okafor blushed his face and practiced shooting, but the shooting rate was not very high, and the other teammates of the Eastern team did not dare to persuade him, so he could only let him take the basket to be angry. Turner seemed to be deliberately provocative, and he also practiced his mid-range shot in the same position, but he didn't miss a shot, and the ball passed through the net over and over again, which made Okafor's heart even more irritated.

Seeing Okafor's unusual behavior, McCaw quietly asked Haugist, "Big brother, are we going to continue to provoke him?" I think he's getting out of control! It is estimated that it will not be long before the game starts, and he will be pushed back to the bench by the coach! ”

"According to the original policy, let Jacob make do with Downs first; Let Myers face Okafor, slap him down, and then wrap up Downs, Myers is my new discovery, an absolute high-quality inside, let's feed him the ball tonight, let him play comfortably, try to fool him to UNLV, with him next year, it will be much easier to win the NCAA championship! ”

"Big brother is so calculating, it's so easy and enjoyable to follow your hero! How do you say that, you can win even if you lie down! McCaw touted.

"You are touting me at this time that I might as well score a few more goals in the game and contribute more to winning."

"Don't worry, big brother, I will never be soft on the goals that should be scored! After all, I also scored 71 points! McCaw patted his chest and reassured.

The game is finally about to begin, and the long-awaited strongest defender of the Class of 2014 will play against the top two inside lines of the Class of 2014. After last night's ticket grabbing, the ticket price of this game even caught up with the price of the Bulls when they played the Eastern Conference Finals two years ago when Rose vs. the Big Three, even so it was still hard to get a ticket, and every fan sitting on the scene was full of smug smiles on their faces.

Today's DJ is also the queen DJ of the Bulls, at 7:30 p.m., the stadium lights went dark on time, and like yesterday, it was a gorgeous 3D light show, which put a short highlight of each participating player, and the highest cheers were still Downs Okafor and Haugist. Then came the entrance ceremony, and since the game was held in Chicago, which is located in the eastern United States, the Eastern High School Stars were considered the home team, and the Western Stars were the first to play as the away team.

As is customary, the bench players were introduced first, and the two starting positions in the Western defender line undoubtedly belonged to Hougist and Moodier, and McCaw could only commit to the bench for the time being. After introducing the bench, DJ began to introduce the Western High School star starting five Tigers in an NBA way, "Born in Vienna, Austria, from Utah High School in Utah, 7 feet tall, No. 42 player, center Jacob Poeltl! ”

"Born in Bedford, Texas, from Bedford Trisomy High School, 6'11" tall, No. 33 player, power forward Myers Turner!"

"Born in Fullerton, California, from Fullerton Maited High School, 6'7", No. 3, small forward Stanley Johnson!"

"Born in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, from Arlington Grace Preparatory High School in Texas, 6'5" tall, No. 0 player, guard Emmanuel Moodier!"

"Born in Las Vegas, Nevada, from Las Vegas Seamill Memorial Middle School, 6'6" tall, another No. 0 player, guard Haugist ———— Hurley!"

DJ deliberately lengthened the sound when introducing Hoggist, giving the audience enough time to cheer and shout, there used to be such a saying in the NBA, superstars with outstanding strength, wherever they play, it is like playing at home, there is Jordan far away, Kobe LeBron is near, they will also receive a lot of cheers from fans in away games, and today Hoggist seems to have received such treatment!

In the cheers, Hoggist first gave a fist to the audience with Chinese etiquette, and then waved and bowed. This kind of pretending behavior made the audience feel that Hoggist had the demeanor of a general and a superstar.

Next up is the Eastern Conference bench appearance, and after a quick introduction to the Eastern Conference bench, the lights of the whole court are once again dimmed, and only one light hits the door of the home players' tunnel - the Eastern High School stars were fortunate enough to use the Bulls' locker room today.
