019: What the hell is this point guard?
After a week at his alma mater, Georgetown University, Ewing returned to New York, the place he loved and hated.
On the first day of the start of the preseason training camp for the new NBA season, Ewing was surrounded by many reporters as soon as he arrived at the door of the McY training ground.
As a center last season, Ewing was naturally the most high-profile player on the Knicks' roster.
The reporters also knew that he had just returned from Georgetown University, so they asked him a lot of questions about his alma mater.
One of the most frequently asked questions was about Mutombo's ranking.
Mutombo is already a senior and will be in the league after his freshman season in college.
Although his real age is a mystery, Mutombo is still ranked second in ESPN's latest draft prediction rankings, behind Larry, who is the predetermined top pick. Johnson.
A lot of people are very concerned about the Georgetown center, after all, Ewing's success has made Georgetown centers a favorite of NBA teams.
Ewing naturally gave the younger brother who looked older than himself enough support:
"For the past week, Deacon Bay and I have been training together almost every day and fighting together.
I can responsibly say that even if he enters the league right now, he is one of the best defensive centers in the league. ”
Ewing doesn't talk much in front of the media, and he doesn't like to deal with the media very much.
Especially the annoying New York media.
Originally, Ewing only wanted to say so much, but he suddenly remembered something, so he continued to approach the microphone and added:
"But in next year's draft, there may be more than one Georgetown University player in the top five, so let's wait and see!"
With that, Ewing grinned and walked into the gymnasium, leaving only the reporters looking at each other.
In addition to Mutombo, Georgetown University is the only one who has the strength to enter the lotto.
But Mourning had long said he would finish four years in college.
In the '90s, it was common to play four years before being drafted, especially center players who needed time to develop.
Ewing, Olajuwon, and Admiral were all drafted after four years.
Mo Ning is definitely not going to be in next year's draft, and since it's not Mo Ning, who can it be?
Who at Georgetown University has what it takes to finish in the top five in next year's draft?
The gorilla's words are quite mysterious.
Listening to Ewing is like listening to Ewing's words.
You just say your name!
Shay watched the video of the interview and was also speechless.
Captain Orangutan, you're not kind!
If you don't take us to Atlanta to find the White Tiger Warriors.
Speak well of me in front of reporters, but don't mention my name directly.
What's the use of you as a senior!
However, the clever media quickly targeted Shay.
Because before, Shay had abused the super genius Grant in the warm-up game. Hill's experience.
So, if there is anyone else at Georgetown University who can make it to the lottery next year, it must be Shay!
As a result, all kinds of gossip about Shay appeared in the newspaper:
"Shay single-handedly defeated Ewing, and a super talent emerges!"
"Chinese magician, Shay once led the team to blow up Duke alone!"
"Shay is the next super defensive stalwart, having blocked Ewing 12 times in training games, Ewing told me personally!"
"Pass it on, Shay has taken Ewing 20 times in a game!"
Shay's hands trembled at the sight of the news.
In the Internet era, there is still a picture at the beginning, and the rest depends on the editor.
In this era of paper media, don't even start editing pictures directly!
These days, the video of the competition is not as easy to find as it was in the Internet era.
The dissemination of information is also relatively closed.
This has become a breeding ground for all kinds of exaggerated rumors.
A lot of things are passed on, and they may be passed on to change their taste.
You can't say it's fake, because Shay did win against Ewing.
But it's not all true, because Shay didn't blow up Ewing as people think.
In any case, the fact that "Georgetown University has a guard who beat Ewing" has indeed spread completely in basketball circles.
At this juncture when the regular season of the Great East Conference is about to begin, such rumors are undoubtedly worrying Syracuse fans.
With Mourning and Mutombo, it was tricky enough, and if Georgetown really had someone like that who could defeat Ewing, Syracuse University would have a hard time coping.
As last season's Great East League champions, Syracuse fans are naturally hoping for a winning start to the season.
For Shay, who suddenly appeared, Syracuse University Honorary Coach Jim. Boheim is also very cautious:
"We don't know much about the situation, we don't know much about Shay.
We'll be ready, though. ”
Boheim may be cautious, but his star is predicted to be the top three picks in next year's draft, and Billy Brown, who is known as the template "Magic + Bird". Owens doesn't think so.
Billy. When Owens came back from the World Championships this year, he felt like he was so strong that he exploded.
After all, he's a guy who's played professionally now.
At the World Championships, he felt like the pros were just that.
Back in the NCAA against the student player, Billy. Owens had an inexplicable sense of superiority.
And, Billy. Owens just beat Georgetown last season.
In his opinion, the twin towers of Mutombo and Mourning are nothing to be afraid of.
The two of them are just stupid and big.
So in the face of an interview with reporters, Billy. Owens is nobody:
"Defeat Ewing's defenders? Has Georgetown University begun to paralyze itself in order to win?
Comfort yourself in moderation!
They only lost to us by six points last season, so they don't have to lie to themselves. ”
"What if it's true? What if Georgetown really had such a number one?
After all, they did win against Duke.
And, that guy did put Grant. Hill was struggling. ”
The reporter continued to ask.
This makes Billy. Owens was getting a little impatient.
"Listen, even if there really is such a number one person in Georgetown, I will blow him up and kill him without leaving a piece of armor!
We were the champions of the Great East Conference last season, we won against Georgetown last season, and we can win this season! ”
Billy. Owens was very upset, and a random rumor made a bunch of people think they will overturn.
I'm Billy. Is Owens so unbearable?
Owens thinks he has only one opponent this season, and that's No. 1 candidate Larry. Johnson.
Everyone else is ants!
Besides, how strong can a point guard's defense be?
Short players, defensive ability is always limited.
The height of NCAA point guards is generally between 178 and 185, while Owens is 2.03 meters tall.
Even if Georgetown really has a strong point guard, Lao Tzu can pull him to death!
Billy. The content of Owens' interview drew a lot of people's agreement, and they all agreed that Georgetown University's so-called magical point guard was nothing more than their own crookedness.
Billy. Owens will let him be as he is.
No one cares about a point guard with a blank resume, and people only expect Mutombo and Owens to perform.
In this way, on the afternoon of the game, the entire campus was bustling towards the basketball hall.
Georgetown University, as a famous basketball school, has a pretty solid fan base.
On race days, it's hard to get tickets.
Shay couldn't help but feel a little nervous as he looked at the shouting crowd in the basketball arena.
Although I had played a game before, it was an internal practice match with Duke after all, and there were only a few dozen people on the scene.
And today, thousands of people poured into the scene at once.
Shea had never seen this kind of scene before, and the atmosphere of the game could only be experienced on TV and in games before.
Shay noticed that in addition to ordinary fans, there were also greasy men in suits in the stands, holding pens and small notebooks.
If I'm not mistaken, they should all be scouts sent by NBA teams.
After all, with two top-three draft picks in this game, scouts are sure to be out of the way.
At this time, Shay heard a commotion in the stands.
When I turned my head, it was the Syracuse University Orange People who had entered!
Billy. Owens walked at the front, with a smug look on his face.
In the stands, everyone booed. For the man who eliminated Georgetown University last season, the fans here are naturally very unpopular.
In the face of boos, Billy. Far from being afraid, Owens arrogantly put his hand to his ear and motioned for the boos to be louder.
After entering, Owens quickly glanced at Georgetown University's lineup.
Well, Mutombo is still so old, and Mourning still has intelligent retarded eyes.
By the way, what about that legendary point guard?
Owens wants to see what the point guard who ruined Ewing looks like in the rumors.
He remembered that the point guard seemed to be wearing the number 23.
Owens looked around all the short guys, but didn't notice anyone wearing number 23.
In the end, his gaze fell on an Asian whose muscles were as good as Mo Ning's and who was about the same height as Mo Ning.
Owens swallowed, this guy was wearing number 23, but he was about the same height as Mourning.
No......
What the hell is this point guard!?
