In the slums of Detroit City, there is a dilapidated and cheap little apartment, there are always a few cracks in the dilapidated sewer pipes, and the house is full of foul-smelling sewage, these infrastructures should have been replaced a long time ago, maybe the people who live here basically have no money, and they can't even fill their stomachs for a long time How can they have the heart to repair these things, the women are wearing galoshes doing housework in this wet house, there is no electricity here, and the weak candle flame makes it difficult for them to see the dilapidated walls at night, giving them the last trace of comfort- That's Mark. Williams' home.

After Mark's father gave birth to Mark and his two younger brothers with his mother, he disappeared without knowing whether he was involved in the gang or the fan. Mark's mother only relied on doing odd jobs outside the home to save money to raise her three children.

Fortunately, Mark spent most of his time in school or basketball stadium, unaffected by the chaotic environment of the slums, but as long as he remembered that his beloved mother and two younger brothers were still living in such dire straits, and he was a gangster or a dude when he went out, he had endless motivation to fight.

While other slum kids were fighting, selling drugs, or getting involved in gangs, Mark had already worked his way up to become a star at California State University, Sacramento, earning him a basketball scholarship to the University of Michigan for his physical fitness and academic performance.

But that's not enough for Mark, who wants to get into the NBA and buy a warm, bright villa for his mother and two younger brothers, who have worked hard all his life.

As a college basketball player, Mark clearly knows that his physical fitness can make him want in the high school league, but in the college league and even the professional league, the shortcomings of offensive creativity and passing ability will make it difficult for him.

The appearance of Sun Yue gave Mark an idea: he can develop into a top 3D player (with 3 points + deffence (defense)), and only need to open up space for the more offensive talent Sun Yue on the offensive end and wait to receive the ball on the side, and defend against the opponent's arrowhead on the defensive end, so that he can not only gain the trust of the coach and the core of the team in the college league but also in the professional league in the future.

With this in mind, Mark and Sun Yue arrived at Detroit's most famous street basketball court: Santa Cistera Stadium, which is located next to Detroit's St. Cistera Church, where NBA players "Magic" Johnson, Chris Webb, Derek Coleman, and famous street player Carter Jonny played.

Although there are many NBA stars and street basketball masters who have played at Santa Cistera Stadium, the stars and street basketball masters are all passers-by at Santa Sicila Stadium, and the real dominance of this basketball court is the three-man street team nicknamed "The Predators", who are known for their fierce style of play and fierce physical confrontation.

The heart of the "Predators" is their point guard - Stephen, who is skilful on the dribble and explosive in scoring, and the other two players in the "Predators" are the physical swingman Willis and the fierce center Minoni on the inside defense.

When Mark and Sun Yue wore sportswear to the Santa Sithera Stadium, it happened to be the "Marauders" who defeated another team, and the sharp-eyed Willis saw Mark at a glance, the two were in the same position and similar styles, and they had many encounters in the body and mouth at the Santa Sithera Stadium.

"Yo, look, this isn't our old friend, "top student" Mark. Willis would always take the slightest opportunity to humiliate Mark to hide his jealousy that Mark had been drafted by the University of Michigan basketball team.

"Less, Willis, I'm playing with my teammate skipper today." Mark ignored Willis's humiliation.

"Why, Mark, it's this yellow man who gave you the courage to challenge our 'Marauders'," Willis said disdainfully.

"Hey, hello, I'm Sun from China, call me skipper." When Mark and Willis were arguing, Sun Yue went directly to Stephen, and he knew that this guard who was carrying two completely different basketballs with both hands was the soul of the "predator".

"$100 a game, 10 balls." Stephen didn't even lift his head, and his hands still didn't stop carrying two different basketballs.

"OK, let's get started." Although $100 is a lot of money for Sun Yue, the competitive Sun Yue is not afraid of these two words in his dictionary.

Mark stood next to Sun Yue and didn't refute Sun Yue's meaning, although he had suffered countless losses as a "predator", but his trust in Sun Yue and his dislike for Willis overcame everything.

"Then let's get started, guys, and there's someone to challenge the invincible Marauders and let them know what it means to be the jungle. Stephen threw the basketball off his hand, "Yellow people, you pick a teammate." ”

This is difficult for Sun Yue, he is completely unfamiliar with the people in the San Cistera Stadium, there is no way to choose people, just when Sun Yue was about to let Mark choose people, he suddenly saw a somewhat familiar face, and Sun Yue pointed to a person with a flash of inspiration: "It's the big black man in a black vest." ”

I heard that another team was going to challenge the "Marauders", and it was led by a yellow race, everyone at the Santa Sisila Stadium came around, with Sun Yue's words, everyone's eyes focused on the person Sun Yue pointed to, only to see that this black man in a black vest was about two meters tall, his body was extremely strong, and he felt that his muscles were about to burst the vest that was already Gagaga, and this big man was obviously a little surprised that he was selected.

Mark leaned into Sun Yue's ear at this time and said: "Skipper, why does this big man you choose feel a little clumsy, and he doesn't feel like he can play well, or choose a friend of mine - Robert, he can basketball and defense on the inside." ”

Sun Yue smiled confidently: "Inside rebounding, defense? The guy I chose is more than okay with interior basketball and defense. ”

"Don't you know him, skipper, aren't you here for the first time?" Mark asked, somewhat disbelieving.

Sun Yue looked at Mark seriously: "Mark, believe me." You can't go wrong, this big guy is strong. Mark nodded involuntarily in Sun Yue's serious eyes.

At this time, the big black man came over: "Hey, I heard that you chose me to play this game." ”

Sun Yue carefully looked at the big man, made sure that there was no difference from the person in his impression, and replied, "That's right." ”

The big black man suddenly showed a shrewd side that was completely different from his honest appearance and said: "If you want me to help you, no problem, but the money we win will be divided equally between the three of us, and the money you lose will be paid by the two of you." ”

Mark on the side said indignantly: "How can there be such a cheap thing, if you win, you won't ...... if you lose."

Sun Yue interrupted Mark's complaint: "Okay, I agreed." He stepped forward and gave the big man a high-five, indicating the deal.

Willis, who was already waiting impatiently next to him, said, "Are you all alright, hurry up, there are still people waiting in line to challenge us." ”

"Here we are." In response, Sun Yue raised his legs and walked towards the "marauder", and the big black man looked at Sun Yue deeply and followed.

"Hey, big man, haven't asked your name yet." Mark asked, chasing after the big black man.

"My name is Joey. Dorsey, call me Dorsey. The big black man replied back.
