Hoggist sat on the bed, looked at a room of "shrimp soldiers and crab generals", and sighed again.

McCaw couldn't stand it anymore, and stood up and asked for everyone: "I said big brother, obviously you asked them to come over to discuss tomorrow's tactics, and when they came, you sighed without saying a word, and you were confident in the court just now that you could win tomorrow!" What does it mean to be like this again? If you don't have anything to say, let them go back to bed early to recharge, okay? ”

"You're going to be sleepy, go to sleep by yourself!" Hougist said angrily.

"Big brother, will I live in a room with you? You've gathered so many people here, my bed is full, how am I going to sleep? Okay, okay, don't pretend to be there, I know you have a way to win, we can come to McDonald's All-Star, we are all stars in high school, who doesn't want to win! Don't sell it, if there is any way, just say it, we will definitely listen to you! McCaw said as he winked at the group. Everyone understood and began to echo it.

Hoggist nodded "reluctantly", "Okay, then I'll talk about it, first of all, if you want to win, everyone must be united, let's not mention more high-sounding words for the time being, let's talk about tactics in detail," Speaking of this, Hoggist paused and looked at a few inside players, "You guys are in good shape, I don't know if you can withstand Downs and Okafor?" ”

From Bedford, Texas, the 6-foot-11-inch tall big center Miles Brown. Turner shook his head with a small braid, and said very unconvinced: "What Downs Okafor, I think that's what it is, isn't it easy and pleasant to prevent them?" ”

Another big center, a 7-foot-tall white center, was born in Vienna, Austria, the capital of music, and attended high school in Utah. Poeltl hesitated for a few seconds, but finally said sincerely: "Okafor likes to attack under the basket, I can try to defend him, but Downs is too flexible to play, I really can't keep up!" ”

"That's enough, tomorrow I'll try to keep the two of them on the court separately, you can play with them alone, I reduce the pressure on you, I hope you can try to withstand them on the defensive end."

"You're not an Eastern coach, how can you decide how they play? The styles of the two of them complement each other, just suitable for playing twin towers, Downs is a high-level strategy, Okafor is a low-post strong attack, and the combination is definitely 1 plus 1 greater than 2 effect! "Miles. Turner found Hougist's words a little incredulous.

"You're right at a tactical level! I'm kind of convinced of your abilities now, but basketball is never just a matter of tactics, and players aren't robots, and no matter how good a game is, it's always going to be executed for some reason. For example, if I ask you to keep an eye on Downs on the court, you don't have to do anything else, but someone else uses Downs to cover and burst to the inside to make a layup, and you can reach out and cover it, do you cover it or not? ”

"Needless to say? Covered, of course! Turner replied without hesitation.

"That's it, you go to make up for the block, who is going to watch Downs? Aren't you discounted on the tactical tasks I assigned to you? Hougist asked rhetorically.

Turner didn't speak, showing a thoughtful expression, and Haugist then asked: "For example, we all know that Okafor's shooting ability is weak, I let you defend Okafor, prevent him from breaking through and back-to-back foot, and let him shoot from medium and long distances, as long as there is a slight interference." But how would you feel if he singled you up and scored three shots in a row from the free throw line with your long arm interfering? ”

Turner thought for a moment and replied, "If I'm still calm, I might think there's something wrong with the defensive strategy you've laid out for me, and the next shot defense will change for his shot; It's also possible that I'm so angry with his shot, forgetting everything, trying to stop him from scoring the next goal by any means he can. ”

Haugist looked at Turner in surprise, "Now I'm impressed with you, you have a high ball quotient, maybe among these people, besides me, your achievements will be the greatest!" ”

"Don't worry about him, tell us all about what you illustrate with these two examples?" McCaw's mind was clearly not as good as Turner's, and he didn't understand what Hoggist was trying to say, and many players were nodding their heads along with him.

It seems that these elites will have a lot of success in the future, I hope they can make a breakthrough in the university, otherwise their ceiling will be like this! Thinking of this, Hoggist still explained: "I mean, humans are different from robots, people will judge the situation and adapt to the situation, and can actively adjust their tactics to adapt to changes in the situation, of course, it is possible to misjudge the situation at some point and make wrong adjustments." And people have feelings, and sometimes people will lose their minds on the field for some reasons and do something that goes against the tactical arrangement. ”

"So what?" McCaw then asked, it seems that he still has no brains, or no brains? However, the Moody Ettner seem to have some understanding.

Turner asked, "Is it possible that you have a way to make the opposing coach misassess the situation and take the initiative to break up their twin tower combination?" ”

Hogist smiled and shook his head, "How can I have such great ability, do you remember the conflict between Downs and Okafor that day at the Navy Pier Tangilo said?" ”

Moodier reacted instantly, "You want to stir up the relationship between Downs and Okafor and make them fight?" ”

Haugess nodded, but Moodier hesitated, "Isn't that okay?" Didn't you promise D'Angelo to help him reconcile Downs and Okafor? If you can't help you, shouldn't you promise him? Promise him, you shouldn't do such a thing! ”

"Big brother must have his reasons for doing things, how can you question him?" McCaw didn't think much of it, he just knew how to maintain Hoggist.

"Why not divide them in the simplest way of using words to provoke people without a fight? We only have a chance to win if we separate the two of them, and it's no secret that they don't have a good relationship in the first place, and anyone can take advantage of this weakness! How can this be considered a stone? And most importantly, this is the game that I want to make Downs and Okafor rebuild the old good cloth, I pay the most attention to honesty in life and work, and since I have agreed, I will definitely help them reconcile, but unfortunately you can't see my good intentions! At this time, Hogist put on a lonely expression, as if he wanted to show his compassion for others.

"You say you're stirring up Downs and Okafor's relationship in order to reconcile them? Did you say it wrong or did I hear it wrong? Moodier asked, confused.

"It's not that I'm wrong or you've heard it wrong, it just means that your brain isn't flexible enough, and your ideas are too straight to go around the bend. Don't blame me for not reminding you, you will suffer if you go to China with such a way of thinking! Hoggist reminded.

Hearing that it was related to his going to play in China, Moodier came to the spirit and asked sincerely: "I have always had a straight personality since I was a child, and I never go around the bend in circles, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

"It stands to reason that there is no problem, everyone is as simple as you, and the world will be better! However, China is a weather-beaten country, he once lagged behind the world, and now it is catching up rapidly, but the international community is complicated, some developed countries do not want to see China become strong, they will use all kinds of means to obstruct China's development, if the hard-working and brave Chinese do not have the brains that can detour and calculate, they would have fallen under the conspiracy of some countries. Some **** forced the Chinese to fight wits and courage with them, but made the smart Chinese's mind evolve more and more. So if you're so brainless, it's hard to get along in China! ”

"Is it really like what you say? It's horrible! I'm a little afraid to go! Moodier felt a little weak after listening to Haugist's tirade.

"Seriously, society is the best university, and it's good that you can go to a social university in Guangdong Hongyuan for a year and still earn money. When you get to China, if you don't understand anything, just ask me, by the way, you can't get on the Titter in China, you can add my eChat to find me. Hoggist reassured.

"Well, thank you so much!" Moodier's eyes were filled with gratitude, "From how much you care for me to the fact that I can sense that you want to help Downs, tell us about your plans now—or as you call them layouts!" ”

"There is a precedent in the history of China for this plan, which is the 'stop the civil war and fight against Japan together' during World War II. But how do I tell you in English? Not...... Probably the danger is coming, and it means that it is unanimous to the outside world. ”

"You mean you want to force them to unite against us?"

"That's right, if you want them to join forces, you have to push them into a corner, with our strength to force them into a desperate situation, the only chance is to let them play separately first, at that time they are not strong, we can take the opportunity to break each one, open the gap, and in the end if they still want to win, they will definitely work together!"

"What if they still won't be reconciled?" Moodier asked.

"Then we'll have to accept the victory first, and then find another way!" Haugist said as he lay down on the bed and looked at the ceiling.

"This ......"

"Don't worry, I am naturally sure of the situation! They will definitely put aside their old grievances and get back together. Another carp stood up, "Now let's talk about the specific alignment strategy......

Hogist spoke very carefully and meticulously, in other words, he was so chatty, it was close to 11 o'clock when he came back from the court, and this talk was talked about until 2 o'clock in the morning, the problem is that he spoke very engagingly and thought-provoking, and the players listened to his explanation and fell into deep thought, even if they returned to the room and lay in bed, they couldn't sleep for a while. So the players of the Western team slept collectively on Sunday, and it was not until lunch that people got up one after another.

The organizers did not arrange any collective training in the morning, but the star players of the Eastern High School trained very consciously for a morning, and enhanced their tacit understanding, seeing that the players in the west did not appear on the training ground in the morning, and the players of the eastern team felt that the victory was in their hands, and the overall quality of the western players was far inferior to them, and now they are not seriously preparing for the game, this behavior seems to be like taking the initiative to admit defeat in the eyes of the eastern players.

Approaching lunchtime, the Eastern High School Stars players finished their morning training and came to the hotel's cafeteria, only to see that the Western High School Stars players were already feasting. The athletes' appetite itself is unusual, and the signature dishes of grilled chicken breast and smoked salmon prepared in the kitchen today have been eaten by Hougist McCaw and others, and the last few chicken breasts were also pocketed by Moodier at the same time as Okafor picked up the plate.

Okafor's habit of eating a large meal of chicken breast before the game to replenish the energy he needs, this habit has been maintained for six years, and it has even become a pre-game ritual for Okafor, and today the chicken breast was actually eaten, which made Okafor very unhappy, he deliberately raised his voice and mocked: "Some people are not active in training, but they are quite active in eating?" ”

"I don't eat actively, I have a problem with my thoughts!" Hougist was picking vegetables when he heard Okafor's provocation against the Western team and immediately fought back.

"I wonder what your foodie brigade will do tonight to deal with the game? Do you eat bread to practice buttery hands? Okafor sneered.

Haugist saw that Okafor was so easy to be provoked by words, and liked to fight for a win or loss on his lips, and he was secretly happy in his heart, this was not yet the evening game Okafor gave me the opportunity to provoke, then I can't let it go, first fan the flames for you, and blow up at night, so Haugist deliberately whispered to McCaw behind him with a clear volume he heard: "We are not as hard as some big men train hard, and we are not as hard as some big men obviously train as hard, But it's always better than a guy named Downs! ”

"What did you say?" Okafor couldn't hear what Haugist said that people who were not as good as Downs were referring to himself, and the last thing he usually wanted to hear was that others compared him to Downs.

"I heard that you are a grade worse than Downs, and you are shy and say that you and Downs are some lifelong enemies, what kind of two heroes or something, forcibly follow Downs, is there such a thing?" Hougist uses exaggerated rhetorical devices to describe the relationship between Okafor and Downs.

"I don't comment on that, you'll see it in the evening!" Okafor held back his anger and said.

"Well, who's that, Miles! Jacob! "Haugist shouted at Turner and Poeltl, "Please deal with this stupid big man at night, and you won't have to face Downs when you are against him, what a beautiful difference!" ”
