For Li Dong, university life is spent in non-stop classes and training. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

His roommates don't see him all day, and Lee, a celebrity at the University of Kansas, usually returns to the dorm in the evening, so there is little communication between them. There is little communication, but Li Dong's modest and polite appearance is still firmly engraved in the minds of the three roommates, and they are in the feeling of living with celebrities, and they have also become Li Dong's earliest fans.

On 11/14/14, it was a Friday and the NCAA men's basketball tournament officially kicked off on this day. The opening game was held by Eastern Washington State University and Texas Southern University, and the venues of both teams were in the spotlight, with scouts flocking to the stadium for any potential to become the next so-and-so.

The University of Kansas' own opener was a team from the Pacific 12 League, the Gauchos from the University of California, Santa Barbara, led by Lazar Hayward.

Coach Bill also took this game very seriously, and let the players from the University of Kansas come to the basketball arena early to start getting used to the game and do some simple warm-up exercises.

The game would start at half past five in the afternoon, and after a while of training at the University of Kansas, Santa Barbara players from afar showed up in the arena.

"Look, that person is Santa Barbara's number one player, Lazar Hayward!" Kelly Oubre pointed in one direction, and Li Dong turned his head and looked over - there was a tall man, about six feet six inches, with some dark skin, who looked much stronger than his peers, and he was skillfully doing some crotch dribbling, showing excellent ball control.

Li Dong nodded, indicating that he knew, and this would be the most important task for the University of Kansas tonight.

"Jimmy, do you see it, that yellow-skinned player wearing the No. 9 jersey is the University of Kansas player that the coach asked us to pay special attention to!" On the other side, Lazar Hayward also saw Li Dong and Kelly Oubre doing shooting training on the other side of the basketball court, and whispered to his teammates next to him.

Jimmy Butler pouted, with a hint of disdain on his face: "I don't know why the coach would let us pay attention to such a rookie player." God, it's clear that Kelly Oubre next to him is our enemy, and if we are plagued by his airtight defense, we will have a hard time getting out of it today. ”

"Don't underestimate anyone." Lazar Hayward said solemnly, his tone slightly aggravated: "The coach said this, naturally he has a reason!" ”

"Lazar Big Brother ......" Jimmy Butler felt a little aggrieved, and he felt that he was right.

Lazar Hayward let out a long sigh and said earnestly, "Jimmy, I know I'm still struggling. But you have to know that obeying the coach's arrangement is the basic quality of our future professional football, I know that you have a very strong potential, although you are not a starter of the team now, but with your talent, you will definitely be able to enter the NBA in the future, and whether you can complete the tasks assigned by the coach will be the key to your fate, you have to keep this in mind......"

Jimmy Butler nodded like a chicken pecking rice, carefully jotting down every word of his big brother.

It was also a game that was of great interest in the region, and the University of Kansas local TV station sent two commentators to the scene to give live commentary.

"Avery, who do you think will win this game?"

"University of Kansas!" Avery replied without hesitation, with a joking explanation: "This is the home of the University of Kansas, after all, and if I support Santa Barbara, I'm afraid I'll be beaten up by the rabid Kansas fans if I don't get out of this arena today." ”

"Okay, stop kidding, tell me what you really think!" Trevor spoke.

"The University of Kansas have been in really good form lately, you know, they've won five of the last six warm-up friendlies. The University of Kansas, which lost Jonny Flynn, has been on a meteoric trajectory lately, and I've watched their games and I've been impressed by a few of the players. ”

"Is it Ryan Adams? The accomplished shooter is currently at the end of the first round and the top of the second round on the draft prediction net. ”

'No, Ryo's performance was very good, but what really made me care about the other players.

"Oh? Could it be Kelly Oubre? The physical small forward is said to have caught the interest of several NBA clubs, and his draft market is starting to rise, reaching the top 60 of the prediction network for the first time in his last prediction. ”

Avery nodded, then shook his head again, and said, "Kelly's potential is amazing, but what makes me more concerned is the current point guard at the University of Kansas!"

"Point guard?"

"Look, it's the player in the number 9 shirt!"

"No. 9 jersey?" Trevor looked up, his eyes quickly searched the court, and finally saw Li Dong, who was still shooting three points from outside the three-point line. Li Dong jumped up slightly, gently plucked the ball out with his ten fingers, and the basketball crossed an arc high and plunged into the net.

Trevor secretly praised: What a beautiful hand shape and curvature!

Avery laughed, "That's right, it's him." This is a newcomer to college, and honestly, I wouldn't have believed that such a teenager from the East would have such physical fitness and explosiveness until I saw the video, he is a player with no less potential than Kelly Oubre! ”

"Really?" Trevor had obviously not heard of Li Dong's name, and was skeptical.

"Judging from my observations over the years, this 18-year-old boy named Li Dong will definitely enter the NBA in the future, and his ball handling skills and speed are ......"

……

When the arena is full of fans, the game officially begins!

Santa Barbara's center Dwayne jumped to win possession, and the basketball was firmly in the hands of their point guard Ryan before he began to advance with the ball.

The enthusiasm of the audience was very high, and the first wave of defense shouted in unison: "Defense, defense!" ”

Santa Barbara has had superstars like The Flash Wade before, and even in the East beyond the ocean, it is not a small fame. Their head coach, Tom Creon, was Wade's mentor in college, and he is leading Santa Barbara to a second championship trophy in franchise history.

Since Santa Barbara's strength point is Lazar Hayward as a small forward, their offensive core is also clearly biased to the outside, which is at the opposite end of the spectrum at Georgetown University.

However, Kelly Oubre's talent in defense is amazing, and the first wave of offense, the one-on-one defense between him and Hayward, perfectly reflects his average physicality at this age. Hayward dribbled two steps, shook off a little space, and barely shot.

The basketball was ironed, and the first rebound was grabbed by Ryo Adams, who rushed inside.

The audience immediately stopped the roar of "defend, defend", and responded with cheers and applause, and Li Dong even heard a lot of whistles.

He loved this kind of basketball atmosphere so much that his blood began to boil.

Ruiou passed the ball to Li Dong to control the ball, and Li Dong turned sideways, controlled the basketball around his body, and struck the front court like lightning.

Santa Barbara's players were taken aback and quickly returned to the defense.

However, Li Dong didn't start to assault after being outside the three-point line, and he stopped the ball urgently, waiting for his teammates to arrive outside the three-point line, looking at the Santa Barbara guards who were defending him, and his mind quickly began to think about countermeasures to tear apart the Santa Barbara defense.

Under Coach Beal's arrangement, the University of Kansas is also mainly outside, with Ryo's spear, and the outside firepower of the University of Kansas has been fierce in recent seasons.

So Li Dong tried to command, and the University of Kansas began to run tactically, which was a little confusing and unclear, but still let Kelly Oubre run out of the open position, and Li Dong immediately passed the ball.

By the time he passed, Santa Barbara reacted, and Lazar Hayward pressed Kelly closely.

Kelly passed the ball back to Li Dong, Li Dong grabbed the basketball with both hands, and saw that the thirty-five seconds of offensive time was still very sparing, so he let his partners run a double-block tactic, he made a mistake in his own steps, strode out, and passed the defenders of Santa Barbara, and killed the penalty area!

"How to defend!" Coach Tom Creon chuckled when he saw Li Dong coming in.

Santa Barbara's two inside lines immediately wrapped up, forming a defensive posture of double ghost shooting. Santa Barbara's defensive formation shrank significantly, and Li Dong found the snow white on the outside, transferred a wide range, and passed the ball out!

Outside the three-point line, Ryan Adams adjusted and raised his hand to shoot!

"Huh!"

Hit, the University of Kansas opened the scoring......
