Chapter Ninety-Two: Brave University
Coach Odom made a difficult mistake with the player list, Hougist's strength in the summer league has far exceeded all the 1-3 positions in the team, and the team training puts him in the main team His qualifications are absolutely enough, but Hougist can't play for the team now, putting him in the main lineup not only affects the unity of the team, but also delays the tacit understanding of the main lineup, this result is definitely not what he wants to see, but let Hoggist take the bench lineup and a bunch of rookies to challenge the main team, This is obviously making things difficult for him, if he offends the true god Haugist, and he runs to other universities after graduation, won't he be in vain?
Coach Odom never thought of a perfect solution, but decided to let Devin probe Hoggist's tone first.
Hougist didn't care about the strength of his teammates, he was only looking for a stronger physical confrontation than high school when he was training with a college team, and winning or losing games was not in his mind.
Coach Odom was overjoyed, and quickly found the schedule of the Spartans National Invitational Tournament, compared it with the schedule of the Raiders, reformulated the training schedule, and asked Devin to bring it to Hougist.
Hoggist received the training schedule of the Raiders team from Devon, and looked at the schedule of the Spartans, and said that this Coach Odom is quite good, and he changed the training schedule for me, right? The training is all on the days when I don't play, and I don't train after my away games, so I'm embarrassed to be so polite that I won't go to UNLV in the future. Coach Odom is so generous, I can't refute his face! I can go as far as I can with this training!
It just so happened that there was training the next day, and Hougist came to Thomas early. The attached training hall next to the Mark Center, which is where the Raiders train every day. Hogist seemed to have gone a little too far, and the stadium was still empty.
Horgist turned on the lights and warmed up himself, then began to practice shooting, of course, with his left hand. Hoggist's left-handed layup was okay, but the shot required more power and control, which was still a bit difficult for Hoggist, and the stadium suddenly resounded with intermittent iron slapping.
Hoggist was really engrossed in destroying the basket, and suddenly a rough voice like Donald Duck came from behind, "Classmate, this training hall is dedicated to the school team at this time, beginners go to the sports field outside to play on the open-air court!" ”
Hoggist put down his left hand that was about to shoot, and when he looked back, it turned out to be a black uncle with a ring on his chin and a smile on his face, who was taller than Hoggist.
Haugest nodded and replied, "I'm not here to play, I'm an uncle who is here to train." ”
"Uncle? Who do you call uncle? I'm not even 20 years old! The black uncle looked a little embarrassed.
"Uh...... Sorry, I didn't see you so young! Hogist hastened to apologize.
"Forget it, I don't care about you about this, but I'm from the team, I've never seen you, you're lying." Uncle Negro said.
"I'm not lying, I'm here for Coach Odom's approval, and you can ask him when he comes." Hougist explained, then turned around and continued to practice his left-handed shot.
"You wait......" The black uncle still came up to stop Hoggist, but Hoggist playfully shook him off with a forward change of direction, broke through to the basket, jumped lightly and completed a slam dunk with his left hand.
"How? I'm more than enough to train at your level, right? Hougist asked with a smile on his face.
"It has nothing to do with your level, if you're not a member of the team, even if you have LeBron's level, I can't let you train here." The black uncle said with a serious face.
"Uncle...... No, big brother, you're too rigid and serious, aren't you? Haugist had a headache, thought about it carefully, and then said, "I'm really approved by Coach Odom to train!" I know Devon, I know Anthony, they can prove it to me! Is that okay? ”
"That's fine, you can continue training when the two of them come and confirm your identity!" The black uncle nodded.
"Big brother, I found out that you may have entered the wrong industry! Your rigorous personality is suitable for being a nurse! Every operation must be checked three times and seven pairs, and it will definitely satisfy your Virgo-like obsessive-compulsive disorder! Horgist shrugged helplessly and sat down to rest and rehydrate.
"Wait...... Come here! The black uncle stood under the basket for a moment, and then suddenly said to Hoggist.
"What? Have you figured it out? Can I continue training? Hoggist asked happily as he picked up the ball.
"I won't let you train until no one can prove your identity!" Uncle Negro said.
"And what did you tell me to do?" Haugist sat back angrily.
"I called you because you smashed the basket! Don't run, you have to be responsible for repairs or compensation! The black uncle said seriously.
"Are you serious or are you joking?" Howgist felt very speechless when he heard the words of the black uncle, he had never heard that the basket could be smashed crooked by a few shots!
"If you come and see for yourself, the basket is at least 0.65° sagging, which will affect our shooting percentage in practice!" The black uncle's face was serious.
The two were arguing, and Devin also came to the arena and saw his teammate arguing with Hougist, so he threw down his backpack and rushed over to pull the rack.
"What's going on? Spencer, Hoggist, why are you arguing? ”
"This buddy of your team is very humorous, I don't mean that I smashed the basket in your training hall and let me be responsible for compensation!" Hoggist said in a strange way.
"You know him! When I came, he was shooting alone, and I told him that this was the school team training hall and that idlers were not allowed to enter, and not only did he not listen, but he also smashed the basket. Uncle Negro said.
"He's not an idler, he's been invited by Coach Odom to train with the team! As for the basket, it is indeed crooked, but it is not Haugist's shooting that is crooked, Anthony has to shoot a video of the dunk after the last team training, you don't know his weight, the basket was broken by him! Devin explained.
"I see, I misunderstood you, sorry!" The black uncle took the initiative to apologize to Hoogist.
"I said why my shooting percentage was so low, it turned out that Bennett broke the basket! But you're a comrade with a lot of principles, and it's funny, I'm Haugist. Hurley, it's a pleasure to meet you! ”
"Spencer. Dinwiddie, nice to meet you. ”
The two shook hands, and Horgist switched to the basket to continue practicing shooting. Although he changed to a normal basket, Hoggist's left-handed shooting percentage was still miserable.
"Brother, your shooting percentage is too dismal, isn't it? Do you want to train with our team? I think you'd better go home and practice by yourself, and raise the hit rate to the level of a normal person first, okay? Dinwiddie kindly persuaded from the sidelines.
Hoggist ignored him and continued to practice shooting with his left hand in earnest.
Dinwiddie pulled Devin aside and asked, "Is he the one you talked to Coach Odom about secretly two days ago?" This shooting percentage is too ugly, right? The two dribbles just now were not bad, he shouldn't be a pure point guard of the Rondo type, right? 'I don't know much about offense'? ”
"Hehe......" Devin didn't say much, just smiled meaningfully.
After a while, the staff came to repair the damaged basket, and other players came to the arena one after another. Hougist also took the initiative to greet Bennett, but Bennett responded a little embarrassed.
Among the players, Haugist unexpectedly met another acquaintance - Dimmit from Carson City. Jackson.
It was Jackson who recognized Hoggist first and took the initiative to greet him, "Hi, Hoggist, is my Mopar still open?" ”
"You're ......" Hoggist looked at the player in front of him who was wearing dirty braids and was about the same height as himself, and felt very familiar.
"I lost all my cars to you, and you actually forgot about me!" Jackson said dissatisfied.
"It's you! You're so bookish, I don't even recognize you! Hoggist finally remembered that the person in front of him was the street thug Dimit who wore a big gold chain in Carson City. Jackson, "You got a scholarship from UNLV too?" What do you think? Is it still a step to play now? ”
"You're really boring, do you have to expose people's secrets? I haven't hurt people with small actions since I was stepped on by you, and you see that I have even changed my dressing style, and I have changed my ways! Jackson punched Hougist in the chest.
"Okay, okay, are you getting mixed up with the main force now?" Hoggist asked.
"Just kidding, I'm only a freshman this year!" Jackson said.
"Isn't Bennett also a freshman?" Hoggist laughed.
"Uh...... This ......" Jackson was dumbfounded by Hougist again, "why are you still so annoying to talk?" ”
"Is it usually the main team training that is always abused?" Hoggist asked Jackson with a sudden wink.
"Why are you suddenly running eyebrows all over your face? Why do you ask this? What does it have to do with you? Jackson asked warily.
"Hehe, I'm a chance from God! Do you want to beat the main team in the training match and win back face? Hoggist had a honey-confident look on his face.
"What's the matter? Coach Odom said that you are the high school student who trains with us? Jackson looked disgusted, "It's doubtful that you can keep up with our training pace!" You still want to carry our bench lineup to overturn the main team? Why am I so unbelieving? ”
"Anyway, you will lose to the main force no matter how you fight, it's better to follow my command, at least if you lose, you can still throw the pot at me, right?" Hogist continued to grind hard bubbles.
"For the sake of your victory over Bennett, I'll believe you!" Jackson finally made up his mind.
"Then you can introduce me to your team's main team and the bench lineup." Hoggist said.
"Our Raiders starters are the best five on the team. The captain is Devon. Williams, he was teammates with you in high school for a year, right? ”
Haugess nodded, "I fed Devin the No. 1 center back then, how is he playing on the varsity team now?" ”
"Devin is now an excellent blue-collar worker, blocking and dismantling, grabbing boards, making baskets, and defending are all great, but his independent offensive ability is not as amazing as in his senior year, but he is still the main center of the varsity team." Jackson has a high opinion of Devon, "And then there is the absolute core of the team, Anthony. Bennett, he's very athletic, he has a strong ability to score on his own, and he can even pull up to the outside to shoot threes, which is a headache for all teams, and every time the team trains our bench to take him, there is nothing they can do about him. ”
"Does he still play without a brain?" Hogist asked coldly.
"Huh? He has always been a physical crushing style of play, and the people in the West Mountain Division call him a little shark! Jackson replied.
"Uh-huh, you go on." Haugis nodded.
"The one who looks like your dad is called Spencer. Dinwiddie ......"
"Like your dad! Aren't people just looking older? Don't be so disrespectful! ”
"Okay, that Dinwiddie is the team's main small forward, he doesn't have much offensive power, but his defensive level is quite high."
Hoggist listened to it and snickered in his heart, this Dinwiddie was passed by himself in one step, which is also considered a good defense, which shows that this lineup is really not good in defense.
"The shooting guard is Carrick in his senior year. Felix, who has a lot of experience, has been named to the best defensive second team in the West Hills Division. But his offensive means are very simple, he has no ability to combine the ball, he doesn't break through, he can't shoot after dribbling, and he can only shoot open shots. Jackson continued.
"It's easy to solve, and what about the point guard?"
"The point guard is called Dechaum. Brown has a good view of the overall situation and has a certain ability to break through, but his shooting level is average. "Jackson finished introducing the main lineup.
"No wonder your record is always unable to make Crazy March, the main lineup is scum except for the inner twin towers! Let's talk about the bench, right? But the main forces are like that, and the substitutes are probably even more unwatchable! Hogist shook his head.
"Who said that! The bench has a no more than Devin. Williams and Anthony. Bennett's poor player! Jackson said smugly.
"Who? So powerful to play as a substitute? Do you want to emulate Manu and compete for the best sixth man, or is he forced to play as a substitute because of the coach's exclusion? Hogist asked curiously.
"Of course, for the team's tactical needs, I am willing to be a substitute! That person is me! "Jackson was so proud that he was about to go to heaven.
"Yes, I know your strength. Barely have the ability! What about the other players? Is there anyone like you? Haugist asked.
Jackson shook his head, "No, the rest of the players are basically broken barrels, everyone has strengths and great shortcomings." ”
