Chapter 66: Old Coach K's Admiration
"What? Owen asked me if I would have a good game with him? Of course! I'm looking forward to fighting him, too! ”
When Fox's reporter found Bai Xiaonian, he had just come out of the toilet and replied with a sour expression.
"So do you think UCLA has a chance of beating Duke?"
The reporter said maliciously that how to sow discord and create a boiling point has always been what they are best at.
"I said this big sister, can you stop asking me such a constipated question when I just finished pooping, I said I didn't believe it?!"
Bai Xiaonian made a constipated expression and said in a strange tone, what he didn't like the most was this kind of guy who thought he was the uncrowned king, and left without looking back, leaving only Fox's reporter with a dashing back.
"To be honest, I don't think UCLA has any hope of winning, especially with that Asian defender of theirs called... It's sure to be blown up by Duke's Kyrie Irving. ”
Because this game is the highlight of this round, Charles Barkley, a member of the TNT commentary team who is here today, is sitting in front of the commentary stand at Poly Arena, and he will be commentating on the game with UCLA's live commentator Kenan Dees.
Obviously, as a loyal fan of Duke University, this former NBA superstar is not interested in Bai Xiaonian, especially the little white children's shoes, which have no physical confrontation, looks like a girl in his eyes, if he is in his muscular era, it is estimated that Bai Xiaonian will not even be able to break through the inside line.
"Hey! Charles, do you want to smell the donkey's ass again? ”
As UCLA's home commentator, Kenan Dees has long been tired of Barkley's appearance of being dragged like two hundred and five, so he said unceremoniously to this old-timer in the commentary industry.
Suddenly, Barkley's already somewhat dark face looked even darker, and kissing the donkey's ass in front of tens of millions of viewers was simply a stain on his life. However, Kenan Dees is not afraid of what Barkley dares to do to him here, because this is the home of UCLA, and the Bruins fans alone can drown Barkley here with a sip of water.
Although the two commentators on the commentary table have been chattering and the smell of gunpowder is getting stronger, but the players of the two teams who are warming up on the court are enjoying themselves, Bai Xiaonian and Irving, two popular fried chickens in the league now, are practicing shooting side by side, although the two have never met before, but as the two of the best people in this rookie, the two of them have a feeling of sympathy for each other.
"Have you ever thought about which team you will play for in the future?"
Owen stood outside the three-point line and hit a three-pointer and said to Bai Xiaonian.
"Which team to go to? Seriously, I haven't seriously thought about it yet. Maybe a warrior? Sir? They all have lots in the lotto section, but who knows, let's talk about it then! ”
Obviously, Bai Xiaonian didn't expect Owen to ask this question, and he was obviously stunned and then replied.
"The knights have contacted me in the past few days, saying that they will guarantee my order..."
"Knights? It's a small market, but they're rebuilding and it's good that you can get a central position. ”
Bai Xiaonian thought for a while and said.
After hearing Bai Xiaonian's words, Owen nodded thoughtfully, it seemed that he had made a decision in his heart about where he belonged.
The closer the game gets, the more the hustle and bustle of the fans in the Poly Arena becomes, and although many Duke fans have come to the scene to support their team, it is a drop in the ocean compared to the huge fan base of the Bruins, and it is as small as dust in the mountains and tsunamis at the scene.
After the appearance of the Duke University Blue Devils, the UCLA players also walked out of the players' tunnel one after another, and when Bai Xiaonian appeared on the big screen at the scene, the shouts of the entire Poly Stadium were connected, and under the spotlight of reporters, it seemed that he was the king of the court!
Commentator Kenan Dees began to introduce the starting line-ups of both sides:
"Duke University fielded their strongest lineup in this game, with Belek Zuobaker and Mason Plumlee on the inside, and Kyle Singler on the front line is also a very strong player, as for Jon Shayer on the outside and super point guard Kyrie Irving, I won't introduce much, I think you've heard of his big name for a long time..."
"So it's a very difficult task for UCLA to beat the Duke Blues with such a squad."
Before Kenan Dees could continue to introduce the home team's Bruins lineup, Charles Barkley, who was on the sidelines, turned his head and interrupted.
"Damn dead pig, get out of here!"
"Who's going to throw this sabee out..."
“Fuck…”
………
After hearing Barkley's words, the UCLA fans at the scene suddenly stopped drying, and the saliva spit on the commentary table almost drowned Barkley.
"Hehe, okay, let's take a look at UCLA's starting lineup, center: Drew Gordon, power forward: Simmons, small forward: Tyler Honeycutter, shooting guard: Malcolm Lee, and our elf - Wood White! Let's look forward to the lads tonight. ”
After expressing his feelings in two words, Kenan Dees also said what he expects from UCLA in this game.
Soon after the players on both sides were in place, the basketball was thrown into the air at the referee's whistle, and the game of Mars hitting the Earth officially kicked off.
Gordon easily snatched the basketball in the hands of the opponent's center Lake, and then handed it to Bai Xiaonian, who was about to go.
Owen, who was responsible for defending Bai Xiaonian, posted it as soon as he got the ball, and his flexible defensive steps easily kept up with Bai Xiaonian's speed, which surprised our little white children's shoes. You know, Owen has always been known for his extreme offense, but he didn't think about it, and he is also very good at defense.
However, Bai Xiaonian controlled the ball in his hand unhurriedly, although the opponent's defensive strength was a little beyond his imagination, but it would be a big mistake to think that he could be restrained in this way.
A dummy one on the left shoulder and then turned around with Owen pulling the ball, the speed made Owen who defended him only have to touch the corner of his clothes urgently, and the smooth movement indulged in silky smoothness, and then accelerated and rushed into the interior to perform the classic European step to continuously avoid the opponent's internal defense from the save, almost in an instant, Bai Xiaonian broke through the defense carefully arranged by Duke University, and hit the board with a comfortable small throw in the cheers of the fans in the audience.
"Roar, roar, roar! The Bruins' elf opened the scoring for UCLA, and I really don't know how to describe his deft pace..."
Kenan Dees, who saw Bai Xiaonian win a blood commentary, couldn't help but shout, while Charles Barkley on the side had a depressed expression, obviously UCLA scored first and disappointed him.
On the bench of Duke University on the sidelines, a middle-aged man in a crisp suit watched Bai Xiaonian score the ball and touched his big belly with a smile with an expression of appreciation.
Originally, he was quite fond of Bai Xiaonian, a little guy, and reserved a place for him in the Blue Devils team, but he didn't expect that because of his personal affairs, two days of delay would cause UCLA to take the lead in recruiting this talented young man, and even now he thinks about it, he still has some regrets.
His gaze returned to the blue-gold No. 11 running on the field, and he sighed:
"Sure enough, it's the little guy I value..."
