At this time, the stadium was empty, only Lu Dry and Yan Yufeng, who came out of the bath, Yan Yufeng was surprised that the stadium was suddenly empty, but when he looked up, he saw Lu Dry holding a basketball, and walked to the court while patting, and when he appeared, the old man beckoned to him and shouted: "Come, accompany me to exercise." ”

Yan Yufeng rubbed his still wet hair, walked over, the old man threw the basketball over, and said, "You didn't make any free throws in the game just now, come, let me see the stability of your free throws." ”

Yan Yufeng walked to the free throw line with the ball, he turned the basketball upside down, and asked, "How many free throws?" ”

Ludry gave a sly look and said, "Until you lose it." ”

Yan Yufeng frowned, but he didn't speak, looked at the basket, then lowered his head to find his position, stood steadily, then raised his head, in front of him, slapped the ball three times, and then moved his shoulders, holding the basketball with his left hand, and retracting the basket back and forth in the void with his right hand, and finally picked up the basketball, raised it to his snort, and slowly pushed the ball up, until the forehead, the wrist exerted force, and the ball was pulled out.

Ludry stood under the basket, watching Yan Yufeng's preparation and the free throws that followed, and he suddenly understood that Yan Yufeng's free throw level was already A-level just from the shooting posture.

The so-called A level is the classification of some technical levels of basketball in the West, and the data are divided into grades by 5 letters of ABCDE.

According to the assessment and test of various skills, the ability of players is comprehensively judged, and it is also an important means of judging the selection of players. For example, the high school basketball team's recruitment interview for 9th graders will evaluate the player's ability with a 7-point shooting test, a turnaround run with and without the ball, an obstacle dribble pass, a free throw, and a touch test.

Even so, whether the recruited players are recruited with a lot of money or self-recommended, they have to pass the test, and the content of the test is more subdivided.

The team will then record the test results so that the coaching staff can have a clearer plan for the use of the players. How to scientifically distinguish the good and bad, good and bad of players is also the basic ability that a qualified coach should have.

And Ludry, who has been engaged in the basketball industry for many years, can roughly estimate the ability of players through his own eyesight, which is why he has an extremely strong passion for Yan Yufeng.

The ball is hollow into the frame, Ludry re-hits the ground and passes it back to Yan Yufeng, which is a very subtle detail, in the free throw link, it will not directly throw the ball to the penalty taker, but will pass the ball to the penalty taker through a moderate force to hit the ground.

Yan Yufeng noticed this detail, after he caught the ball, he did not repeat the previous preparation action, but just shrugged his shoulders, dribbled the ball three times, and then started to make free throws.

The ball was still hollow into the net, Ludry also repeated his pass, the two continued in silence, the basketball kept hollowing into the net, knowing the seventh ball, the basketball smashed the back frame and hit.

Yan Yufeng frowned slightly, he didn't speak, but after receiving Ludry's pass, he repeated his preparation twice before shooting.

This time, the same hollow into the net, so he began to repeat again, the second time the basketball touched the back frame again, it was the sixteenth time, Yan Yufeng this time, there was no change in expression, just moved his position, he rubbed back and forth on the floor to move his position, and then stood back to the previous position, and then repeated his preparatory action, and then made free throws.

Lu Dry saw all this in his eyes, his expression did not change, but he was satisfied countless times in his heart, and raised his free throw ability against Yan Yufeng to the S level, that is, the highest level.

I don't know how many free throws he throws, until Ludry couldn't figure it out, he finally stopped passing the ball and said, "If this continues, don't talk about lunch, maybe I won't be able to eat a bite of hot dinner!" ”

Yan Yufeng rubbed his hands, he already felt that it was a little difficult for him to maintain stability, and when he knew that he was going to stop, he felt that his shoulders were very crisp, and at the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Ludry slapped the basketball, he was silent, and finally spoke his heart: "Honestly, what do you think I should do to get you?" Face! ”

Yan Yufeng was not very surprised, because at this moment, he was too slow to feel Ludri's mind, but because he had been pretending not to know, he couldn't answer now.

Looking at Yan Yufeng's silence, Lu Dry said: "Every year, there will be a lot of outstanding children, especially as a high school coach for more than 30 years, I have seen too much. ”

"Some kids, he would run up to me with a basketball in his arms and shout at me, Coach, choose me, my future will only be in the NBA, and then in front of me, he would rush to the basket, bang, dunk and show me, as if he wanted me to know how good he was. Some children were brought to me by their parents or some once well-known insider, how to say how good this child is and how brilliant the future is. ”

"Others, with tapes of their own competitions in junior high school, were sent to me from all over the country, even overseas, hoping to join Carlora High School." Ludry paused, he looked at Yan Yufeng, who was listening carefully, and said, "I don't mean to brag about anything, I just want to ask you a question, why do they have to be so active and go to great lengths to do this?" ”

Ludry didn't wait for Yan Yufeng's answer, he quickly said: "Carola is by no means the top high school in the United States, and it is not a well-known high school in the league at all levels. ”

"Then I want to ask you, this is the question, why do you all have to do this?" Lu Dry looked at the silent Yan Yufeng, and after asking, he didn't speak, and stood quietly in front of Yan Yufeng.

Yan Yufeng was silent, and he asked, "Is this the case for everyone who just played with me?" ”

"Of course, Werner was self-referred, and after I watched the video, I emailed him to come for an interview, and he flew from Germany to New York the next day, and he found me that night, and he didn't have his bags all set, and he was tested on the pitch. Wayne also recommended himself, he went to our annual summer camp, he was a 9th grader at the time, he came from Rhode Island as an intercontinental bus, and he had 9 dollars with him, I asked him, how do you allocate the 9 dollars for a month of camp, I remember what he said at the time, Wayne said to me, sir, if I am selected by you, then the expenses will be written off, if not, I will pay it back as a handyman at the school. ”

"The Carola basketball team, everyone has a chance to be on the team through a variety of campaigns, without exception." Ludry concluded.

"But at my school, a lot of them are recruited!" Yan Yufeng replied.

Ludry smiled contemptuously, this expression was so obvious that Yan Yufeng could see it at a glance, and he said: "Only the team that is demolished and rebuilt, and those who have no qualifications will do so." Of course, I'm talking about high school, but college is a different story. ”

Yan Yufeng thought for a while, and he said: "Sir, I understand what you mean, everyone who wants to play is the most looking forward to joining the school team, and I am the same, but I already have a team, I'm sorry." ”

Ludry was not disappointed, he was well aware of the difficulty of recruiting Yan Yufeng, but he still hoped that Yan Yufeng might not understand what he wanted to express, so he said bluntly: "A good platform, a group of excellent players, a coach who regards you as the core, the three in one, your dream can go further and higher." ”

Yan Yufeng shook his head, he bowed to Ludri, and said goodbye: "But I don't think dreams mean betrayal. Thank you for your appreciation, sir! With that, he walked out of the arena, where the old man with a silent and gloomy face stood alone.

Yan Yufeng walked very fast, he felt a tightness in his heart, a little hesitant, he felt that he couldn't come here again in the future, and he refused a person full of sincerity, such a thing, it was enough to do it once.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the stadium, he was blown by the cold wind, Yan Yufeng calmed down a little, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wei Ning squatting on the dead corner to avoid the cold wind, and shouted to him: "Don't you know that the stadium is coming?" ”

Wei Ning didn't have a good face, his face looked frozen, the iron was blue and the iron was blue, he stood up tremblingly, and said vaguely: "This winter in the United States is no worse than the Northeast!" ”

Then he continued, "What am I going to do in there? If the coach finds out I'm eavesdropping, I won't have any good fruit to eat. ”

Yan Yufeng didn't speak, he walked down the steps quickly, rubbed his stomach, covered his head with the hoodie by the way, and turned back to Wei Ning, who was still moving his hands and feet, and said, "Where are you going to eat?" I'm hungry. ”

Wei Ning said angrily: "Yan Kou, I still want me to invite you to dinner?" Dream on. ”

"Wow, so unjust?" Yan Yufeng was happy.

"People like you, what kind of righteousness do you talk about, you have been cheating people." Wei Ning was still faceless, he walked down the steps, pointed to the blue-roofed building not far away, and said, "The school is on vacation, everywhere is closed, go to my dormitory to cook noodles to solve the problem." ”

"Boiled noodles? That's too much. Yan Yufeng didn't pay too much attention to it, but he liked to see Wei Ning eat deflated.

"The noodles cooked by my daughter-in-law can be eaten by you, and they are already fragrant in the ancestral tomb! I actually asked for this and that. Wei Ning took the lead alone.

"What? Are you living together? Yan Yufeng was shocked.

"What, this is the United States, isn't it normal for men and women to live in the same building? Besides, she's on the fifth floor, I'm on the third floor, living together! Wei Ning explained angrily.

"It's cheap for you, Roland won't cook and pour water for you every day, right?" Yan Yufeng then remembered and diverted the topic.

"Yes, it's just my dream, today is a special case, you're here, it's like this, it's usually me who do the dirty work." Wei Ning sighed and said to Yan Yufeng: "Bitter, I thought I didn't have to work in a restaurant, but I didn't expect that when I came to school, I would do more work!" ”

"Out of the wolf's den, into the tiger's den. That's what it means, brother! Yan Yufeng smiled and went to put Wei Ning's shoulder.

"Who is your brother, less close, you actually deduct me, I remember it all my life!" Wei Ning was depressed when he thought of this, and angrily shook off Yan Yufeng's hand.

"Hey, hey!" Yan Yufeng could only laugh, and he didn't forget to sneer: "Who told you to go up the pole to prevent me, you want to come up yourself, blame me?" ”

"Maniac!" Wei Ning was still puzzled, he continued: "Your name is really not wrong, Yan Yufeng, you love Yan Buckle, and you love to go crazy. ”

"I'm so hungry!" Yan Yufeng pretended not to hear, rubbed his stomach and accelerated his pace to surpass the nagging Wei Ning.

Wei Ning was in a hurry, and he also quickened his pace, surpassing Yan Yufeng, and the two of them chased after me in a fight, and after a while, they had already come to the door of the dormitory building.

Looking at the locked door, Yan Yufeng tried to push it, but found that it was locked, and Wei Ning in the back sneered: "Oops, run fast, isn't it?" Push, use some force, anyway, you already have a history of destroying Carola's high school, and it's okay to have another one! ”

"Damn, what the hell is the dormitory, it's locked? No, this building is all yours. Yan Yufeng felt very angry, and he urged Wei Ning, who was standing at the foot of the steps: "It's really cold, you are stupid!" ”

A gust of wind blew, Wei Ning's hat was blown crooked, he immediately ran up the steps, took out a white card from his pocket, lit it up in front of Yan Yufeng, and showed off: "See, high-tech, no card, can't get in!" As he spoke, he posted at the door, only to hear the door click and make a sound, Wei Ning pushed the door and entered.

Yan Yufeng entered the door and looked around, and found that it was directly on the second floor of the stairs, so he said, "Do you usually go in and out like this?" ”

"That's not it, only those who stay in school, usually it's open directly, and it's not closed all night." Wei Ning confessed that he can brag about, but he is definitely not a personality that can brag nonsense.

Going up the stairs, Wei Ning suddenly asked in a serious tone, "The old man recruited you?" ”

Yan Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and then he also confessed: "Well, but I refused." ”

"Hey!" Wei Ning looked like he had expected it, he didn't say much, Yan Yufeng thought that Wei Ning would say something, but it could be seen that Wei Ning went up alone first, and couldn't help but be stunned. The two went up to the third floor, walked along the way to the door of a room, Wei Ning knocked on the door, and then explained to Yan Yufeng: "The key is given to Roland." ”

While he was talking, the door opened, and Roland opened the door, and when he heard it, he said, "What bad things do you say about me?" ”

"How can it, I'm praising your noodle cooking skills are quite first-class, Yan Zi doesn't believe it, you can talk about it." Wei Ning said with a smile on his face.

Yan Yufeng entered the door and found that this was the layout of a family-style two-bedroom apartment, and said in surprise: "Are the dormitories like this?" Carola's! ”

"Of course not, it's a certain group of people." Wei Ning was triumphant.

"Don't listen to him, it's just bigger, the layout is the same, if you are willing to cook, any dormitory can do it." Roland twitched Wei Ning's arm and commanded: "I've been busy for a long time, you go down there." The water is boiling! ”

"Okay!" Wei Ning trotted all the way into the kitchen.

"Sit casually, it's cold outside." Roland looked like he had the spirit of a hostess, Yan Yufeng was suddenly a little restrained, he hesitated between the sofa and the chair, and finally chose to do it on the chair.

Looking at the complete facilities in the hall, Yan Yufeng said with some envy: "I didn't expect the conditions here to be so good." ”

Roland smiled indifferently: "Actually, it's also a person, my room on the fifth floor is much smaller than here, and it is four girls living together, Wei Ning was recruited, the school has special treatment, and it is a coincidence that I can be assigned to this room." ”

"Does he live alone?" Yan Yufeng asked.

"No, there is another person, Devin, the center of their 1st team, who was injured in the league last week and left school early to go home." Roland explained.

The two talked, Wei Ning came out wearing a scarf, and he asked Yan Yufeng: "Do you want to eat tomato and egg noodles, or beef noodles?" ”

"You can do beef noodles too?" Yan Yufeng was surprised.

Wei Ning said with a little embarrassment: "It's just that I threw a steak in the noodles, hehe." ”

Yan Yufeng laughed, he had no choice but to say, "Egg noodles." ”

"The steak I fried was actually okay!" Wei Ning was a little out of business, he was very serious about trying to convince Yan Yufeng.

Roland interjected: "Die, I had diarrhea for several days last time, let's make your promising tomato egg noodles!" ”

"The problem of ingredients, this time is different!" Wei Ning was indignant, feeling that he didn't want to carry this pot.

After listening to Luo Lan's words, Yan Yufeng was even more reluctant, he raised his hand and surrendered: "Spare me, I really don't dare to eat your beef noodles today, or, I'll come by myself?" ”

Wei Ning suddenly heard Yan Yufeng's subtext, and said in a sinister manner: "The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman." ”

"Where is all this nonsense! Get back to the kitchen, you ninth-rate chef! Roland roared with a lion in Hedong, Wei Ning shrank his neck, flashed back to the kitchen, and shouted from afar: "The ninth-rate chef is also a human being, can you give some dignity?" ”

Looking at the two of them, Yan Yufeng was very envious in his heart, this was something he had never met and experienced personally, he thought about it a lot, and at the same time, he suddenly found that he was also eager to meet him on such a day.

But can you have it?

Yan Yufeng smiled bitterly in his heart. (To be continued.) )
