"Yellow-skinned? Chinese? Japanese? Are you sure you can play basketball? "The tall and strong man who had just come on the field was immediately ridiculed naked by a black player with a goatee on the field.

"Hahahaha" The players and spectators around the entire stadium looked at Gao Dazhuang with a mocking gaze, and Gao Dazhuang suddenly had a feeling of being discriminated against.

"You don't need to argue, strength is everything here, if you want to win respect, you have to defeat them" Just as the tall and strong were about to fight back against their opponent, Hot Sauce had already passed the ball.

"You remember, I'm Chinese" The tall and strong man after receiving the ball slowly dribbled close to the "goatee".

"Chinese? Chinese can play streetball, hahahaha, this is the funniest joke I've heard this year" But before his words fell, the tall and strong suddenly broke out, and a stride threw it behind him.

In the blink of an eye, there was no forcible breakthrough without any feints, and Gao Dazhuang instantly threw the "goatee" behind him, and the other players on the entire court didn't have time to react, and Gao Dazhuang had completely taken off.

The tall and strong in the air spread his wings and lightly dunked the ball into the basket under the gaze of everyone in the audience.

With a crisp sound, Gao Dazhuang scored his first point in Rock Park, and it was also his first goal in the basketball kingdom of the United States.

The tall and strong man who had been out of battle for a long time due to injury pulled up his body under the basket after the dunk was over, originally wanting to see the recovery of his body, but in the eyes of the fans at the scene, he was so provocative.

"Oh, beautiful", "too fast", "silk beaten" but this is Rock Park, everything is based on strength, and the tall and strong ball still won the cheers of the fans at the scene.

"Excuse me, I forgot to play street basketball?" The tall man smiled at the "goatee" and took the initiative to ask for the ball from the pepper.

"Haha, high, this is American style" Hot Sauce laughed and "rolled" the ball to Gao Dazhuang.

The tall and strong also rolled the ball on the ground, and quickly slapped the front of the ball with a slight bend of the wrist, as if the wrist was sucking the ball, and when the ball approached the "goatee" defending him, he rubbed the ball violently.

At this time, "Goatee" no longer had the contempt he had before, and he knew that he had made a big mistake, "This yellow-skinned kid is definitely a streetball master, but is there such a great streetball player in China?" He's really like a black player who grew up in Harlem."

The tall and strong eyes kept staring at the "goatee", like a beast finding its prey, and he didn't even look at the ball without looking at it, full of confidence, and the ball was weirdly running at high speed around the tall and strong.

The tall and strong continuous cross-step, sliding step dribbling is close to the "goatee", and occasionally one or two consecutive realistic virtual shaking catches the goatee off guard.

"Oh" There were shrill boos from the sidelines, but these boos were clearly aimed at "Goatee", and the fans at the scene were quickly conquered by the tall and strong, this is Rock Park, and strength first is the constant rule.

Just as "Goatee" was once again deceived by a realistic feint by Tall and Strong, Tall and Strong suddenly stopped, and his entire body and the basketball he controlled slowed down and almost stopped.

This is?

"Oh my God, this is the famous trick of hot sauce - SlowMOCross" The DJ at the scene suddenly screamed and cheered on the sidelines.

This is not the end, the tall and strong step down the dribble in succession, and once again make a Flinstoneshuffle in front of the "Goatee": when the ball is on the left side of the right driving foot, he picks up his right hand and hits the ball to the ground behind the left side of the "Goatee", but the man breaks through the right side of the "Goatee".

Split the ball? No.

When the tall and strong ran backwards with the "goatee", the tall and strong took a step back and returned to the place where the dribble began.

The ball that began to be shot out by Gao Da Zhuang did not roll forward after hitting the ground with spin, but miraculously returned to Gao Da Zhuang's hand.

"Goatee" turned around and not only did not see the figure of the tall and strong man, but even the figure of the ball disappeared, and in the cheers of the fans, a figure came to his ears: "Is this how streetball is played?" ”

In the next game, Gao Dazhuang made noise on this free basketball court: BreakAnkle, Escape, StiffLeg2in1, YPAGhostKick, Shuffle, Reaction and various streetball skills appeared to make the atmosphere reach ** again and again.

"Hey, he's my buddy, the best player from China - Gao, he's my Hot Sauce friend," Hot Sauce proudly proclaimed to the players at Rock Park after a dunk by Gao Dazhuang.

In the game just now, Gao Dazhuang scored 5 goals in a row, and he dunked in different ways after 5 consecutive breakthroughs, which convinced these street players, especially "Goatee".

Tall and strong not only has the skills of hot sauce, but also has NBA-level physical fitness, and comprehensively crushes opponents in terms of strength, height, speed, and explosiveness.

Strength wins respect, and at this time, the rules of Rock Park, after the game, Hot Sauce introduced his own "star" of Rock Park to Gao Dazhuang.

"This is Alimoe, the Harlem boss, who is known as one of the two best defenders in New York along with Skip, and one of the few all-around swing forwards who made a name for himself here at the age of 13."

"This is Alimo, who can play in all five positions in the EBC, and his bullfight with SKIP has become a classic fight of the year in Rock Park, New York"

"MainEvent, the great god of Rock Park who came to New York from New Jersey, is synonymous with AND1 aerial work, and the best high school player in the United States"

"Escalade, Queensbridge's No. 1 center in New York, is very fat but flexible, skilled in all kinds of low-post offense, with Iverson's dribbling, Carter's dunk, O'Neal's height"

"SikWitIt (Goatee), the first person in San Francisco's BayArea, has ruled the West Coast court for nearly 15 years, a top-level dribbling monster, super three-point ability, and of course, his rich voice is also a must, I can't sleep without his singing"

……

Jayson Williams, a former Nets center from New York, once said, "The most over-hyped players in the world are the so-called street basketball legends, because they have only played in their neighborhoods and have no offensive and defensive statistics, who knows what they really do and how they perform?" They are a group of people who are overly mythologized."

Williams is only half right, yes, their performance is sometimes over-exaggerated, but in the eyes of the people, who cares about the NBA stars, they only believe in the street basketball heroes they have witnessed, and there is no shortage of legends of these street basketball heroes who beat NBA stars to the ground, these people are the heroes in their minds.

They are the heroes of Rock Park.

"Hot sauce, he's exactly like you," said SikWitIt (goatee) as he walked up to Tall Zhuang.

"His learning ability is too strong" Hot sauce glanced at the tall and strong, and said in amazement: "Also, Gao will participate in this year's NBA draft, and he will definitely be a rookie in the little green house, he will bring the charm of street basketball to the NBA like Alstom"

"Friend, you can come to Rock Park alone," SikWitIt (goatee) said unusually friendly to Tall Zhuang, who earned respect in Rock Park.

After the trip to Rock Park, the four-day joint audition officially began, and this audition invited a total of 60 candidates, which was the largest trial before the official start of the draft.

The content of this joint trial included regular training and various physical tests, but no 5-on-5 actual combat confrontation was arranged.

In contrast, the most important part of each team is the "interview" session, where each team can interview up to 18 players and have up to 30 minutes of conversation with each player to get to know their personalities and qualities.

"It's mostly the interviews," said one scout from the East, "and nothing else." ”

A general manager of a Western Conference team agrees: "The most important thing for me right now is the interview process with these players, through which I get to know them better, add to what I know about them on the basis of what I have learned, and then make the final decision." ”

But just like in the workplace, players have their own preparation for interviews, and agents go to great lengths to organize the questions their clients might be asked and how to answer them correctly, which makes interviews less effective.

"They're like machines, waiting for you to ask them the questions they've prepared." "It's usually going to go for five to 10 minutes, and then you start throwing questions around the corners, and that's when you start to really see the qualities of these kids and see their real side, and it's a lot of fun." ”

Since the teams have been observing the target candidates for a long time, they have a considerable degree of understanding of their background information. By asking questions, they can also tell if the players are honest or not.

However, some people believe that the gimmick of this joint trial is far greater than the actual significance, and some managers said: "This kind of joint trial, just three or four days, do some unrealistic evaluations, in the final analysis, this is business, this is entertainment, and the league used these four days to make an excellent promotion for the draft."
