Chapter 66: You Told Me It's Forty-Six?
One thing Xu Yong can be sure of is that in the NCAA finals a month ago, Jordan definitely had an impression of him.
So Jordan is a noble man who forgets everything, so he forgets everything?
How can it be!
No matter how busy Jordan is, the memory of that big occasion can't fade so quickly.
So the only explanation is that Jordan did it on purpose.
It was also at this moment that Xu Yong remembered the media's reports of Jordan's narrow-mindedness.
He thought it was used by the media to black Jordan every day, but now it seems that the media reports are sometimes not all groundless.
For Jordan's unreasonable request, Xu Yong ...... Gladly accepted.
Although the other party is his idol, if an old guy who is forty-six years and three months old sends him an invitation and he doesn't dare to agree, then he is not him.
Even after walking up to Jordan, he didn't forget to ask, "Do you need to warm up?" ”
Jordan was stunned for a moment.
Every summer, he returns to the United Center to play a few times, and it has become a part of his retirement life.
Originally, it would have been later in previous years, but this year Grover held a training camp at the United Center and invited him to come as a mystery guest in advance.
Other people's face can not be given, but since this old friend invited him, he naturally will not refuse.
Of course, in order to better support the game, he trained more than a month in advance to recover his body.
For him, who never admits defeat, he will rise to the challenge anytime, anywhere, and take it seriously.
Which Cheng thought that he actually met Xu Yong here.
Don't talk about why he can't know Xu Yonglai's words, for him who is about a million minutes by the minute, he will only care about who participates in this training camp when he is idle.
So at the first sight of Xu Yong, he was surprised, followed by excitement.
This kid masturbated North Carolina a month ago, and it was in front of him, and afterwards he was ridiculed by the media for a while, it used to be "every gamble must lose", but now it has directly become "every game must lose".
As a great basketball god, of course he will not always worry about these little things, but since there is such an opportunity, he will naturally not let it go.
So he called Xu Yong a caddy, and wanted to give Xu Yong a dismount, at least he could see Xu Yong's helplessness.
After all, Xu Yong has long said that he is his fan.
But he never expected that Xu Yong not only didn't panic at all, but also asked him if he wanted to warm up?
You're a fake fan, aren't you?
"No, you don't." Jordan also deliberately wore a training uniform today, and he didn't even take off his training uniform when he said this.
So, on the one hand, Xu Yong, who felt that "I can't beat a forty-six-year-old man", and on the other hand, Jordan, who "beat you as a college student, you still need to take off your training clothes", the two of them started a one-on-one bullfight when they walked halfway.
Then soon, both men had surprised expressions on their faces.
Jordan was surprised by Seo Yong's ability to confront him.
Since becoming the small owner of the Bobcats, Jordan has developed a habit of fighting bulls with Bobcats players during the season, so he still has a good understanding of the abilities of current NBA players.
It can only be summed up in one sentence: how did the current players become so soft?
But after a while, he found that Xu Yong's confrontation was stronger than most of the Bobcats.
What surprised Xu Yong was Jordan's ability to move.
Xu Yong is not surprised by Jordan's skills, because a lot of technology is muscle memory, and he should also maintain training after retiring from Jordan's appearance.
The key is mobility, this rapid breakthrough and silky mid-range, you tell me it's forty-six?!
The situation is quite anxious.
And after finding that it was difficult to win easily, both of them began to subconsciously fight physically.
So this bullfight quickly turned from the anxiety of the situation to the physical intensity.
Jordan: Damn, if this gets out and I lose to a college student, where will my basketball god go!
Xu Yong: Grandma's, if it is rumored that he lost to the forty-six-year-old Jordan, this is still a hairy NBA!
Because the fight was so intense, Jordan had already begun to spray trash talk: "What kind of back-to-back technique do you have?" Lao Tzu used it better than you when he was in elementary school! ”
Xu Yong is naturally not to be outdone, you are my idol, but one yard is one yard, no matter who sprays trash talk at him on the field, he will squirt back.
"That's the level of the basketball gods? If you hadn't retired early, I'd have beaten you in the ring! ”
Trash talk, what's polite to you.
Just as the bullfight between the two entered the white heat, they didn't realize that two figures had appeared at the door.
One is Tim Grover, the host of this training camp, and the other is Vinnie DeNagro, the current head coach of the Bulls.
The former met the latter on the way here, and when he heard that Jordan was here, De Nagro happened to come over to say hello.
At this time, when they saw the bullfight between the two people in the training hall, although they didn't know why, they were shocked.
Especially for Xu Yong.
De Nagro played in the NBA for 14 years, most of which overlapped with Jordan.
They are "people who have come over", and they only have respect and even fear in Jordan's hearts.
You must know that Jordan was not a good man when he was a player, and he was nicknamed "Tyrant of the Court".
But the little guy in front of him was talking trash with Jordan......
Finally, this 21-point bullfight came to the final stage.
Jordan's physical fitness obviously began to decline after the fierce confrontation, and Xu Yong, although his physical consumption is also very large, is young and strong after all.
Shaking off Jordan with a change of direction, Xu Yong quickly broke through to the inside, then held his breath and jumped high to smash the ball into the basket.
21 to 18.
Xu Yong became the final winner.
After landing on the ground, Xu Yong wanted to roar angrily, but he didn't come up in one breath.
This kind of bullfight that comes up without any warm-up is like a direct sprint without any foreplay, and it is too much.
But fortunately, he won, although there is nothing to brag about winning against the forty-six-year-old Jordan, but for him it is okay not to lose.
Jordan's face looked particularly intimidating.
He took off his training uniform directly, and then said to Xu Yong in a tone that could not be refused: "One more game." ”
Although the physical exertion just now is large, it is equivalent to a high-intensity anaerobic exercise, and their physical fitness is still there.
Xu Yong waved his hand, then pointed to the door.
He had already seen the two men standing in the doorway.
Although he doesn't know what Grover looks like yet, he should be one of the two.
Jordan turned his head to see the two of them, and he frowned, as if he was quite unhappy with their arrival.
However, he didn't continue to fight with Xu Yong, after all, in front of acquaintances, if he continued, it would seem that he was really narrow-minded.
Seeing that the bullfight was over, Grover and De Nagro also came over to say hello.
"What is this?" Denagro looked at Xu Yong suspiciously.
Jordan didn't answer, he couldn't say that Xu Yong was a caddy, because from the perspective of time, Grover should have seen him lose to Xu Yong, and if he talked about caddies, he would lose to a caddie more humiliating than to a college student.
Of course, he didn't say who Xu Yong was, how could he introduce the person who had just defeated him.
Fortunately, Grover guessed Xu Yong's identity, because only Schwartz found him a Chinese player in this training camp.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be this year's NCAA champion Arizonada State University, Xu Yong, who won the MOP this year?" After all, Grover has worked with Jordan for almost two decades, and he still knows Jordan very well.
Sure enough, as soon as these prefixes were added, Jordan's face was obviously softened a lot.
Xu Yong smiled and stretched out his hand to Grover: "It's me, hello Mr. Grover, it's an honor to participate in the training camp you held." ”
Grover couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
This is like a spring breeze's words, a humble and sunny attitude, and the trash talk that spewed at Jordan during the bullfight before is simply like two people.
This young man is really interesting.
He smiled and shook hands with Xu Yong, and had a deep impression of Xu Yong.
It didn't take long for the training camp to come to the gym one after another, and Grover's training camp was also opened.
The camp lasts for three days.
Like Xu Yong, most of the participants in the camp were college students.
When they saw Jordan, they were so excited.
Jordan was also eager to try it when he saw them.
So, on the first day of the training camp, Jordan kept coming down to give "kind" guidance to these college students.
Pity these college students, who were educated by the forty-six-year-old Jordan one by one, can be regarded as understanding the true meaning of the nickname "old rascal".
Grover looked helpless for a while.
But it can't be helped, who calls him Jordan.
He then turned his gaze to sit on the sidelines and rest, Xu Yong, who was already the [exempt product] in Jordan's eyes, with thoughtful eyes in his eyes.
