Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

Chapter 360 Isolation and Exclusion

"The game is very simple. You are in a group and coached by Coach Wesley." Coach Holland said: "The reserve team is in a group and coached by Coach Hayes."

"The game has the same format as the NCAA, divided into two halves of 20 minutes each."

"I hope you can take this game seriously." Coach Holland emphasized: "This is not an exchange game, let alone an exhibition game, but the most important assessment for you by the team. Show your strength. , perform well."

After saying this, the expressions of the eight people including Zhuang Yu became serious.

Some players have excellent resumes and have performed well enough in previous physical and skill tests. For them, they have great hopes of entering UCLA.

Just now, some people were thinking, just be a little more serious, there is no need to work too hard. But listening to Coach Holland's tone, it seems that this is real competition.

"Maybe it's not just about whether you can get into UCLA, it's also about whether you can get a scholarship, or even your future status on the team."

"It seems I have to get serious and perform well."

"This is an opportunity. Although my physical test results are not as good as others, the physical test cannot represent the performance on the field. As long as I play well in this game, I may not be unable to enter UCLA..."

Several players had their own thoughts in mind. They looked at each other with obvious hostility.

Zhuang Yu is also sizing up a few "teammates".

There are seven people besides him. He just asked Coach Wesley, and they do not include Shabazz Muhammad, who was appointed by default.

However, due to limited time, Coach Wesley could not reveal too much and only briefly introduced a few people.

There are five black players among these people and only two white players.

A white player named Lamb is about 210 centimeters tall and has a strong build. He is obviously an inside man. Another white man named Chris was meters tall and very handsome, but he always frowned unconsciously, as if he didn't have much confidence in himself.

Among the other five people, Coach Wesley specifically mentioned two people-one named Jordan Adams and the other named Kyle Anderson.

Obviously, these two people are very strong!

Jordan Adams is about 1.95 meters tall, with bulging muscles on his arms. His dark skin is stained with sweat, making his muscles more distinct.

You can tell at a glance that this is a player with excellent physical fitness.

Kyle Anderson is about two meters tall. His body is not as strong as Jordan Adams, but he has long hands and long legs. At first glance, he has a body type that is very suitable for playing basketball.

Despite being over two meters tall, Anderson has a baby face.

When Zhuang Yu looked at him, he also looked at Zhuang Yu, with a bit of curiosity in his eyes. He noticed Zhuang Yu's gaze and nodded slightly.

This was the first player to take the initiative to nod to him. Out of politeness, Zhuang Yu smiled and nodded at the other player, then withdrew his gaze.

"Okay, everyone, come here."

Coach Wesley greeted a few people.

Since he is coached by Coach Wesley, he is also the coach of this "temporary team", and several players came to him.

Coach Wesley said: "From now on, you are a team. But obviously, you are still very unfamiliar with each other, so let's start with introducing yourself. Briefly introduce yourself and let your teammates Get to know you."

Several people nodded in unison.

Jordan Adams was the first to speak and introduced himself: "My name is Jordan Adams. I come from Atlanta. I graduated from Oak High School. I am 195 centimeters tall (the United States usually uses feet and inches, but here for the convenience of everyone's understanding, I use "foot" and "inch" directly. Centimeter or cm), serving as a defender..."

Coach Wesley nodded slightly. He wanted the players to have an understanding of each other, at least to know what positions their teammates were used to playing.

Then came the others, each introducing themselves.

Soon it was Kyle Anderson's turn. He said: "My name is Kyle Anderson. I graduated from St. Anthony High School. I am 203 centimeters tall. I play as a forward and can also play point guard."

Several defenders, such as White, Besley, and Chris, looked at Zhuang Yu with obvious displeasure.

They are also defenders. They are direct competitors with Zhuang Yu, so they are naturally unconvinced. Why does Zhuang Yu, an Asian, start the game?

Where did this guy come from, why should he start and not me?

Several people were unhappy, but Coach Wesley had already arranged it, and they had no choice but to sulk.

Noticing the looks in White's and others' eyes, Coach Wesley secretly yelled, "It's broken." His original intention was to take care of Zhuang Yu, but he didn't know that he only caused a wave of hatred for Zhuang Yu.

But the matter has come to this, and that’s all it can do.

"Okay, that's it." Coach Wesley waved his hand and made up for it, "Everyone has a chance, this is fair competition."

"Yes."

"understood."

Several people responded.

There is no need to arrange any tactics for this kind of game, and there is no way to arrange them. After all, it is just a temporary lineup with no tacit understanding, so what are the tactics?

At the same time, the reserve players on the other side are also ready.

Players from both sides came to the court and the game officially started.

First it was a jump ball. The referee threw the ball into the air. Lamb immediately jumped up. His bounce was good. He hit the basketball first and slapped the ball into the backcourt. Adams controlled the basketball and had no intention of giving it to Zhuang Yu. He didn't even look at it. He glanced at Zhuang Yu and advanced directly to the frontcourt.

Zhuang Yu didn't care. He didn't know Adams well, and he didn't know whether Adams was used to playing point guard or shooting guard.

Anyway, the game has just started, let’s take a look first and then talk about it.

......

When he came to the frontcourt, Adams took a look at the situation on the court and did not ask for a pick-and-roll. Facing the defender was a direct breakthrough.

Although the defender is a reserve team player, he does not suffer from height. The two inside players are both about 210 centimeters tall, the forward is meters tall, and the two defenders are both over meters tall, and they are both black. , looks very strong.

However, Adams' physical fitness is obviously more powerful. He changed direction and accelerated, but he was not able to get rid of the defender. However, he used his excellent strength to force the opponent away, then hugged the ball and stepped forward, taking three steps up. basket.

There was a soft sound and the reserve team hit a three-pointer.

The opponent has excellent skills and tacit cooperation, but the defense of the trial team only works independently and is not systematic. It is easy for the opponent to find opportunities.

Score 2:3!

The trial team gets the ball.

As soon as Zhuang Yu was about to get the ball in the backcourt, Adams took the lead and shouted to Lamb, who was serving from the baseline: "Ball."

Lamb glanced at Zhuang Yu and gave the ball to Adams.

Zhuang Yu frowned slightly.

Arriving at the frontcourt, Zhuang Yu ran counterattack at a 45-degree angle on the left, used his speed to throw away the defender, and asked Adams for the ball.

However, Adams seemed not to see it and ignored Zhuang Yu at all. Instead, he broke through on his own and once again relied on his excellent physical fitness to break through and score.

For a period of time after that, the trial team had almost all the ball in Adams' hands. He didn't pass the ball very much, and he only played singles when he caught the opportunity.

Occasionally, he passed the ball to Lamb, Hausman, or Anderson. Zhuang Yu remembered clearly that he passed it twice to Lamb, once to Hausman, and twice to Anderson. He was the only one who passed the ball. , not even once.

And it’s not just Adams.

When Lamb and Hausman got the ball and did not pass it to Zhuang Yu, Anderson passed one, but was intercepted by the opponent and turned into a fast break.

After a few minutes, Adams scored 8 points, Anderson scored 2 points, Lamb 2 points, and Hausman did not score.

Not only did Zhuang Yu not score, he didn't even touch the ball.

For a moment, Zhou Zhiming frowned, and Coach Wesley's expression also dropped. There is no doubt that this is the isolation and exclusion of Zhuang Yuchiluoluo!

[Author's digression]: Kyle Anderson, do you feel familiar? That's right, it's Kyle Lee, the sledgehammer.
