Chapter Twenty-Eight: They Can't Even Afford to Open Their Rooms!
Stephen Curry isn't very happy.
Woody said he really didn't get playing time in this game.
He's happy with Woody's performance, but he's ......
Don't forget, Dale Curry said to him on a plane out of Akron, "Stephen, I'm sure you'll be able to!" ”
He didn't want to disappoint his father.
He wants to prove his abilities!
Woody was in the limelight this afternoon, but also keenly noticed Stephen Curry's somewhat depressed mood.
On the way back from the arena, Woody patted Stephen Curry, who was still a little listless, and said to him, "Man, trust me, when the new season starts, you're going to have a lot of playing time!" ”
"Really?" Stephen Curry looked up, his look of anticipation, which quickly turned into full of suspicion. He thought it was unlikely.
Woody said, "Of course it's true! When Drew was chatting with the assistant coach before, I secretly listened to two sentences next to me, and he said that you are the 'secret weapon' of St. Mary's High School for the new season! You'll have a very important role to play in the new season! ”
"Really?" Stephen Curry asked again, but the difference was that he was a little convinced when he looked at Woody so seriously.
So I'm the "secret weapon"?
Cough~
Well......
Children are so coaxing!
Woody was talking nonsense, and he hadn't heard Drew talk to the assistant coach at all.
However, it's not nonsense.
Stephen Curry's ability to play an average starter is actually more than enough.
With the fact that he is already planning to get rid of two of the "Akron Brothers", there is a good chance that Curry will run for one of the starting spots in the future.
It's just that Woody needs to try to make some situations happen that make his chances of getting into the starting position 100%!
Don't ask why, ask Stephen Curry has the best relationship with him, LeBron James and his three good brothers who have played since childhood to adulthood are engaged in "huddles" in the starting lineup, and of course he can also help Stephen Curry with each other.
Most importantly, Woody has not forgotten that Dell Curry has trained him for half a month, which has greatly accelerated the progress of his projection ability, and this love must be repaid!

"How's it going, Xiaodi, how did you play today?"
When Woody got home, Wu Erzhuang posted it impatiently, he knew that Woody had a friendly match to play today. This is Woody's first official game, and he is really worried that Woody will not play well, and when he goes to work today, he is a little distracted.
"Okay, anyway, after the game, an NCAA scout handed me a business card!"
"Really?" Wu Erzhuang's expression suddenly became excited, his face was full of red light, urging to see the business card.
Woody took out the business card given by the scout of the NCAA Division I League, and Wu Erzhuang spelled the letters on it word by word in his broken English: "Kang~Nirvana~Di~Ge...... It's a good school! ”
Hearing his evaluation, Woody was happy: "Yo, second uncle, I can't see it, you still know American universities?" ”
"That's ......" Wu Erzhuang said a little snortedly, "Xiaodi, your second uncle has been in the United States for so many years, let's put it this way, except that he didn't make any money, there was nothing else wrong!" ”
Ho~
I don't know what I'm angry about!
But also, without this momentum, how can it be possible to crawl around in the United States for so many years and still have that "American dream"?
Wu Erzhuang gave this business card back to Woody again, and asked him to put it away, maybe it could come in handy in the future. Woody thought the same thing, so he put the scout business cards of those second-tier league scouts in the locker room, but this one, he brought back.
Then Wu Erzhuang continued to prepare dinner happily.
Today's dinner was much more hearty than usual, and even the steak was served.
Although meat and dairy products in the United States are very cheap, it is possible to buy more favorable "discount meat" if you buy it at a certain time. Many NBA stars from the slums can grow a body of tendon meat, and the reason is that there is really no shortage of meat in this place.
But even so, tonight's dinner was much more extravagant than usual.
At dinner, Wu Erzhuang habitually turned on the Akron local station, and happened to see that the news was reporting this friendly game, and on the right side of the host was a picture, which was the moment when Woody completed the dunk, which was extremely domineering.
Below the picture, is the headline of the news: "The next 'Chinese champion' is from St. Mary's High School?" ”
Wu Erzhuang, who was originally holding a big bone stick with relish, saw the news, his eyes immediately straightened, his bones were gone, and he moved the stool under his buttocks in the direction of the TV, watching the TV intently, listening to the host's report.
When he heard that Woody scored 20 points and 15 rebounds in this game, and saw that almost all the reporters were surrounding Woody after the game, Wu Erzhuang could no longer hide the shock in his heart, turned his head and looked at Woody, with a puzzled face, even if this is called "okay"?
"You can do it!"
Wu Erzhuang found that his eldest nephew had a very serious problem:
What a humility!
If it were him, he would have blown it to the sky!
"Don't be so modest with your second uncle in the future, do you hear?"
As he spoke, he got up and walked towards the house, and as expected, he was going to report the good news to Wu's father and mother again.
"Second uncle, you can blow it leisurely and scare my parents again!" Woody looked at his excitement, rolled his eyes, and shouted at his back. Wu Erzhuang didn't reply, Woody shook his head speechlessly, and continued to nibble on the steak.
However, the influence of this friendly match was far from that, and the next morning, Wu Erzhuang knocked on Woody's door like crazy, woke him up, and handed him a newspaper in his hand.
The big headline above:
"The "biggest dark horse" of this year's high school students? The "super newcomer" from one dozen to five is actually from China? 》
Wu Erzhuang also specially nodded to the head of the newspaper: "Ohio State Newspaper, Ohio State Newspaper, this is a big newspaper for the entire Ohio State and neighboring cities!" Xiaodi, you're really famous now! ”
Half an hour later, when Woody walked around the campus of St. Mary's High School as usual, he realized this:
He's really famous!
St. Mary's High School students who came and went would shout loudly whenever they saw him, especially some girls, who boldly ran to and shoved notes into his hands, saying "See you in the school grove tonight" and "I have the key to the school rooftop".
Woody didn't have those thoughts, not that he couldn't do it underneath, his sexual orientation was normal, but he was only 17 years old, and his body was still developing, and he didn't want to squander his talent casually.
There is a good saying, I don't know what is expensive when I am young, and I forget to cry when I am old!
And......
They can't even afford to open their rooms!
But want to take away his "first time"?
It's really down!
Well......
It can only be said that Woody, who has not experienced certain things, has such thoughts about certain things......
Simplicity!
