Once again, he helped Yale University win the Ivy League championship and reach the NCAA Division Finals. Sun Xiaotian's name has not only been completely opened in the United States, but on the other side of the world, in China, people have also known that there is such a Chinese basketball genius hidden in the American college league through the hype of various media.

Not only that, as Sun Xiaotian's fame in China continues to heat up, fans began to flip through his playing videos. Almost every game he played in the United States was turned over. From these videos, people found that it was such a talented basketball genius who was not discovered by anyone in China before he went to the United States, although Yang Yi and Yao Ming had mentioned Sun Xiaotian's name before, but they never attracted people's attention. So much so that some fans began to question the mechanism of selecting basketball talents in China, thinking that this mechanism has fallen behind!

attracted the attention of the Chinese people, in fact, Sun Xiaotian also felt very excited. On the one hand, it is because of the little vanity in the personal mind, and on the other hand, it is the responsibility of the black uncle to himself that he mentioned, that is, to spread the true meaning of basketball! He hopes to evoke the good memories of basketball in his country again.

As we all know, Yao Ming came to the NBA in 2002, and an era began. Since then, hundreds of millions of young people in China have followed Yao Ming's footsteps and fallen in love with basketball. Since then, every time Yao Ming's competition has almost become a topic of conversation after dinner. Especially for the student class, whenever there is a game of the Rockets, the school cafeteria has become a place for these people to gather, and every time a good ball appears, it will attract a burst of "good ball" from the students.

This phenomenon reached its peak with Maddie's arrival in the Sky City. Everyone began to like this sleepy-eyed guy who loved to squeeze his eyes at the camera. Since then, Yao Mai is not only a combination, but also a memory of an era.

However, the Yao Mai duo did not exert the power that everyone expected, and the frequent injuries took turns to entangle the two like a joke. There have been two wonderful trips to the playoffs, but the brutal results are hard to accept. finally looked forward to the guy who was not Ci Shiping to help Yao Mai, but Maddie's season reimbursement once again shattered people's expectations. Although, this time, under the leadership of Yao Ming, he successfully entered the second round of the playoffs, but the little giant fell again.

All these made many mainland fans begin to be disheartened, and fans with some extreme bodies vowed never to watch the game again.

Gradually, they lost the happy mood they once had, and depression and anger began to take over their hearts. Now, Sun Xiaotian hopes that through God's favor and his own efforts, he will have the opportunity to let mainland fans understand his true thoughts, appreciate the joy of basketball, and let them regain the lost beauty.

And the opportunity is in front of him!

On this day, Sun Xiaotian and the team's players were training to prepare for the "Crazy March" in the near future. Suddenly, Coach Heywood walked in with a man and called Sun Xiaotian's name. Sun Xiaotian took a closer look, I'll go! Isn't this Xu Jicheng Xu guiding?

"Sun, do you know this person?" Coach Heywood said with a smile.

"Of course I do!" Sun Xiaotian hurriedly went to shake hands with Director Xu.

"Xiaotian, this time I came here, mainly to do an interview with you, which will not delay you for a long time, and I have already communicated with the sports department of Yale University, and they have allowed it." Director Xu said.

"Of course! Of course! Sun Xiaotian said as he wiped his sweat!

The address of the interview was set up in the team's locker room, and Sun Xiaotian's background was his own locker and his Yale No. 35 jersey.

"This time, I am coming to interview you on behalf of CCTV, but before I start, I still want to convey to you the greetings of the basketball leader to you!" Xu said.

When Sun Xiaotian heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. It's CCTV again, it's the Basketball Association again, is this going to make a fuss?

"After all, your time is also valuable, and you have important matches ahead, so I only have five questions for this interview."

"It's okay! A few are fine! Haha," Sun Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Let's start with the first question, you've helped Yale reach the NCAA Division Finals for the second time, and everyone has seen your basketball talent. But before you came to the U.S., there was very little information about your games, so I would like to ask what is going on? ”

"In fact, when I was in high school in China, I really loved basketball, and I would play two as long as I had the opportunity. I also dreamed of a day when I would be in the middle of a professional league and receive the cheers of the audience. However, it was really unrealistic at that time. On the one hand, my learning task is very heavy, and on the other hand, the training of professional players in our country is too simple, and I don't know how to realize my dream. So like everyone else, I can only hide my dreams in my heart. Later, I accepted my family's arrangement to come to the United States to study at university, perhaps because of God's favor, and found that my skills were so good, so I tried to realize my dream while also wanting to bring more fans happiness! ”

Sun Xiaotian has no way to say about the source of his skills, even if he does, who will believe it?

"And who is your idol? Or who did you get to this basketball path? Director Xu asked the second question.

"It's definitely Yao Ming and Maddie!" Sun Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Really?"

"That's right! I, like many Chinese football fans, fell in love with basketball because of Yao Ming. Yao Ming opened a door, and he made many Chinese feel the charm of basketball, and at the same time felt the joy brought by basketball. Moreover, from Yao Ming's discomfort in landing in the NBA to his later respect from Americans, this is an inspirational drama in itself, and his story has inspired many people to start realizing their dreams, and of course I am one of them. ”

"What about Maddie?"

"To be honest, I like Maddie because of the way he plays, which is chic and smart. I don't have Yao Ming's body, so I am destined to play differently with him. So, the one who can help me the most is Maddie. In fact, in normal games, I deliberately imitate his way of playing, just like Maddie imitated Jordan when they were young. I want to be like him, even though his achievements are not high, but so what? Who cares? ”

……

Xu asked two more questions, one about the current situation at Yale University and the other about his own academic situation.

Sun Xiaotian told him truthfully, especially when talking about his studies, Sun Xiaotian told him that he had almost completed his credits, and it was likely that he would get a degree from Yale University in advance after the end of this semester.

"One last question, since you've almost completed your credits and are likely to graduate early, will you participate in this year's draft? Or what do you plan to do after graduation? Director Xu had a slightly eager expression at this time.

Sun Xiaotian actually knew that this question was the biggest purpose of Xu's trip, and the previous ones were just cover-ups.

Because whether Sun Xiaotian will run for the election, to put it more seriously, may be related to the planning of Chinese basketball. Once Sun Xiaotian runs, it will not only mean that he will be able to play in the professional league, but also participate in the national team and play for the country. After all, the previous Chinese men's basketball team was based on high school forwards, and Sun Xiaotian's birth may change this model.

In fact, he said it himself last season on the question of whether Sun Xiaotian would participate in the draft, but he didn't know the news in China.

"If I can get my degree this summer, I'll be in the draft!" Sun Xiaotian said with certainty.

It was only a few words, but it became the biggest gain of Xu's trip.
