Chapter Twenty-Four: Finding the Field

"We lost to Georgetown University in the last warm-up game, and this time we have to get it back." On the eve of the game against Georgetown University, Wesley Johnson sat in the locker room and said it with a kind of murderous feeling.

Andy Rustin didn't say anything, but he thought in his heart that there was still no way to contain Monroe, and this game might still be difficult to play, so he glanced at Tang Wenlong, last time, this guy deducted one on Monroe's head.

Tang Wenlong saw Wesley Johnson and Andy Rustin both looking at him, and suddenly felt a little confused, "Hey, what's wrong?" Just fight again, if you can fight, you have to fight, and if you can't, you have to fight. ”

"Then, I still remember the ball from the last time Yan dunked Monroe, so will I dunk another one this time?" Andy hooked Tang Wenlong's neck and said with a smile.

Tang Wenlong glanced at him, and said angrily: "You have to deduct yourself." ”

"I heard that I recently entered the top 60 of the draft market prediction network, haha, these scouts are still quite discerning!" Wesley Johnson changed the topic and suddenly pulled on his NBA draft market, this guy is full of ambition during this time, a few days ago in the game with the Cardinals, scored a career-high 37 points in the NCAA, including two shocking fast-break dunks, explosive physical fitness, attracted the attention of NBA scouts.

Tang Wenlong was very speechless about this guy's sassy flirtation, in his opinion, black people are similar to Wesley Johnson, outgoing and cheerful.

It didn't take long for the staff to signal that the players could come in for a simple warm-up session, and everyone cleaned up and walked out of the locker room.

This time, it was in an away game, and Georgetown University PK Syracuse University, which is currently ranked No. 1 in the Great Eastern Region. No one doesn't like to watch the match between the pinpoints and Maimang, and the battle between the two powerhouses has attracted a large number of fans to the Georgetown University gymnasium.

"Whew, there are quite a few people!" Tang Wenlong did a simple continuous crotch dribble, and was taken aback by the number of spectators present. You know, even Syracuse University, known as the home of the devil, has far less attendance than in the Georgetown University gymnasium today.

However, there were so many people, not only did Tang Wenlong feel nervous, but there was also a faint sense of excitement.

Wesley Johnson was surprised to see that Tang Wenlong's expression was a little wrong, and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Don?" You okay? ”

Tang Wenlong smiled: "It's okay"

After the warm-up games between the two sides, they were quite familiar with each other, Monroe walked to the middle of the field and started to get ready to jump the ball, and Syracuse University also put their center Blake on this side.

After the jump ball, the two sides officially started this focus battle.

Syracuse University's first wave of offensive possession, organized Georgetown University slogans immediately rang out from the stands.

"Defend, defend!"

The slogan was deafening, and compared to the home stadium of Syracuse University, the players of Syracuse University were shocked in their hearts, and their faces were slightly ugly.

Tang Wenlong controlled the ball over half court.

Robin consciously greeted him, with a vicious expression, and spat out rap trash words: "Hey, yellow-skinned stinky boy, this is not the place for you, this time, I'm going to kick your ass hard." ”

But in the face of him, Tang Wenlong didn't raise his eyelids, and opened his hand to make a three-point shot!

"Huh!"

The net flowers were flying, and the defensive slogans organized by Georgetown University came to an abrupt end, and they all let out an exclamation of "wow".

"Who is this, how dare you shoot like this!"

"Damn, I'm too arrogant, right?"

"Come on, Georgetown, show our momentum and take down the Syracuse people!"

Immediately, the fans in the stands made a mess of discussions, although there was still a lot of momentum, but compared to just now, it was much worse.

Coach Jim on the bench had a smile in his eyes, this kid!

It is said that Tang Wenlong's offensive ability is actually no worse than Wesley Johnson, especially in terms of attacking with the ball, and he is a well-deserved NO.1 in the team. But for the sake of the overall consideration of the team, Coach Jim still uses Tang Wenlong as a traditional point guard, after all, throughout Syracuse University, only Tang Wenlong has the tactical literacy and passing skills to complete the work of connecting the team, which leads to Tang Wenlong's data is not up or down, far lower than Wesley Johnson's average of 20 points per game, and even worse than Andy Rustin's data.

Coach Jim thought well, Tang Wenlong is still young, play an extra year or two, and it doesn't hurt to go to the NBA after enough training in college, and it is also a good thing for Syracuse University.

Wesley Johnson and Andy Rustin, on the other hand, are grateful to Tang Wenlong, and the little brother's many second passes have made the two of them score high, and most of the time, let the two of them take over the game. You must know that when training in the team, Tang Wenlong was never weaker than the two, and even faintly stronger than the two of them.

The two of them feel that the little brother is really good at being a person, knowing that the big brother is a junior or senior this year, and facing the pressure of finding a job, a good NBA contract means nothing to the two of them.

Therefore, in the Syracuse University team, Tang Wenlong inexplicably has the biggest name of the second general, and no one dares to treat him as a first-year junior brother.

After Coach Jim watched it, the scene of the three people huddling together was simply the best performance of the team's good atmosphere, so he silently added another point to Tang Wenlong, who acted as the glue - a natural team leader.

Monroe doesn't care if you're a leader or not, he doesn't have a good opinion of Syracuse University.

Originally, he planned to participate in the NBA Draft after the end of this year, and he is currently firmly in the top 14 lottery positions on the draft market. It's just that at the last warm-up match with Syracuse, I don't know if I was deducted by a guy who didn't open my eyes, well, by the way, it's that hateful No. 9, or a foreigner, I'm really blind. At one point, he was the subject of background textbooks in NCAA media reports, which made him angry, who often paid attention to the image of the outside world.

Now that the two teams are playing each other again in the official league competition, he naturally holds back his bad breath and wants to give them a good shot.

After getting the ball, he leaned directly on his back in the low post, and his weight of 250 pounds made him like a huge monster, Blake's thin body couldn't withstand it at all, and he pushed two steps back!

Turn around, hook your hands.

The basketball easily entered the basket, and the stadium immediately resounded with loud cheers. This scene has been used to seeing them in these two seasons.

"Greg Monroe is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 114 kilograms, plays as a center, and is currently averaging 17.9 points, 11.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.9 blocks per game in the league. Tang Wenlong sounded the key analysis terms of Coach Jim before the game, and the corners of his mouth raised an intoxicating angle.

It's getting more and more interesting

Robin wiped the sweat from his head, and when he saw Tang Wenlong's inexplicable smile, he couldn't help but shudder, remembering the nightmare experience he had at Syracuse University last time, if he couldn't prevent this time, would he fall out of the top 60 in the draft market prediction? He shook his head vigorously, brushing the jumbled thoughts behind him and taking a deep breath to try to stay focused.

However, focus and ability are two different things.

After Tang Wenlong dribbled and crossed, he suddenly burst out, quickly flicked the ball forward, and then broke through to Robin's right side diagonally, still ridiculously fast, Robin's eyes blinked, Tang Wenlong was already on par with him!

He subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, but it hit Tang Wenlong's arm with a "snap~".

"Doodoo~" The referee's whistle sounded.

At this moment, Tang Wenlong had already passed Robin, and as soon as he heard the whistle, he immediately remembered the technical action made by a certain star in the Christmas game, and quickly made a shooting action, throwing the ball in the direction of the basket at will.

This indiscriminately thrown ball actually pierced the net hollow, and Tang Wenlong immediately followed the stick and shouted: "ANDONE!" ”

But this is not the NBA, the NBA encourages offense, for some very beautiful goals or two plus one, will choose a penalty that is favorable to the offensive side, and the NCAA referees have learned zero tolerance, but they have not learned these default habits, in the face of Tang Wenlong's somewhat fake performance, he does not bird him at all, and crosses his hands to draw a posture - not count!

Tang Wenlong pursed his lips, if he doesn't count, he doesn't count.

Instead, Coach Jim in the stands put pressure on the referee, "Hey, old man, my player has already made a move when the opposite side fouls, this ball should work!" ”

The referee doesn't know how to bird this Coach Jim, he is like a mirror in his heart, and he knows it clearly.
