I am Really an Insider

Chapter 28: Is this how it feels to be a senior?

   On the morning of December 2nd, on the day of the game between Oklahoma State University and the University of Texas, Wayne was on the way to class and found that there were many more broadcast vehicles at the gate of Gallaher-Alba Arena.

  Although the past ten games have been broadcast live on TV, Wayne has seen such a big lineup for the first time.

   It seems that in this focus battle, the TV stations have indeed increased the scope of broadcasting.

   And a few days ago, Director Zhang also said that he would make a special interview for this game, which shows how much attention this game has received.

   deserves to be a preview of the Big Twelve League finals, the lineup is exaggerated.

   Such a game, even if there is no reward for double growth points, Wayne must seize the opportunity to perform well.

  Because this is the best springboard to play well-known.

   can get a chance to play a large-scale broadcast game, that is what even NBA players are looking forward to.

   94 NBA champion "Big Dog" Glenn Robinson was unwilling to play because there was no live broadcast of the preseason game.

   The University of Texas Longhorns were one of the final four finalists last season. As a team with Anthony's Syracuse University hard steel to the end, it is still very popular.

   And what the Cowboys will do today is to grab the attention!

   After class in the afternoon, Wayne threw the book directly to Teddy, and ran to the arena by himself.

   Wayne can't wait to start shooting warm-ups to see how he feels today.

   As a result, he went on the field and made a shot, which was a 10-bar 10!

   "That's it!" Wayne looked at his hands, ecstatic.

   Not only did he feel no problem today, but he seemed to be a little hotter than usual.

  Wayne was already sweating profusely when Tony Allen and others arrived at the arena.

   "I said, you don't need to be so nervous, do you? You came to warm up so early?" Tony Allen looked at Wayne, thinking this guy was too nervous before the war.

   After all, when the Cowboys and the Longhorns played against each other last season, Wayne was cast in a psychological shadow.

   Facing the breakthroughs of Roy Ivey and T.J. Ford, the restricted area guarded by rookie Wayne has become a "send zone."

  Of course, Tony Allen believes that this will not happen again this year. His good buddy is now the league's shot-blocking king!

"You don't need to be nervous, Wayne. Today, Roy Ivey's breakthrough is absolutely impossible to be so smooth. First of all, I can't let him pass mine easily." Teacher Tony poses as a senior, Pat Wayne on the shoulder.

   He originally wanted to come and kill him, but...

   Wayne is too high, so hard to touch!

   Some people are hitting, they really think they have 1.96 meters.

   "I'm not nervous, Tony. By the way, can you pass me a few more **** today." Wayne grabbed Tony's head and smiled.

"Huh? What does that mean?"

   "I feel that I have a good shooting touch today, and I will definitely get a high score! How about it? Didn't those who make draft predictions say that you have poor organizational skills? Today I will give you a chance to make assists!"

"Cut, if you don't tell me, I will pass the ball to you. You have the height advantage against PJ Tucker today. However, that guy kept Carmelo Anthony in high school so bad, you Just so confident?"

   Facing the "soul torture" of Teacher Tony, Wayne spread his hands.

   "I will let the rookie know that college league and high school league are very different."

  Because Tucker is a freshman, so strictly speaking, Wayne is considered a veteran in front of Tucker.

   It turns out that being a senior feels so enjoyable.

   It turned out that teaching a rookie to be a man was so excited.

   An hour before the start of the game, everyone on the Cowboys gathered in the locker room, and Sutton also began to make final arrangements for everyone.

   When Old Sutton introduced P.J. Tucker, Wayne was so confused that he wondered if Tucker in this world and Tucker in the previous life were the same person.

   "Tucker has excellent strength and athleticism, and is a very competitive player.

   He can beat the defensive players with great physical power, playing very tough and very aggressive. "

  "At the same time, he also has enough strength to complete the offense inside. He has a strong one-on-one ability, is good at breaking through the frame, has the ability to create shooting opportunities for himself, and is a very good defender.

   For this height, the rebounding ability is also very strong. "

   At the beginning, these few sentences were quite normal, which fits the characteristics of P.J. Tucker.

   But after that, Tucker in Sutton's mouth became magical.

  "Most of his points come from the basket, and he lacks three-pointers and range.

   Passing ability needs to be improved, lacking the ability to find teammates while holding the ball. Sometimes I am a little selfish, just looking for opportunities for myself. "

   can't shoot, mainly attacking the basket, somewhat selfish...Are you talking about Tucker?

   Tucker will be able to flourish in the NBA in the future because he is an extremely high-quality team 3D player.

   Since it is a 3D player, the three-pointer is naturally an indispensable skill.

   And as a role player, most of the time there is no singles opportunity.

   But now Sutton says, Tucker is not good at shooting, and he is good at breaking through?

   "Wait..." As a **** hardcore fan in his previous life, Wayne remembers that Tucker didn't seem to make three-pointers at first.

   After several years of experience in other leagues, this guy returned to the league with his own three-point sight and was born again.

   Therefore, the Tucker at this time is indeed very different from the Tucker who will become famous in the NBA in the future, and his playing style is completely different.

   Now he, in summary, is a short and stout guy who likes to rely on his strength to eat the basket!

   No wonder Tucker's draft pick in the future is so low. A striker who is less than 2 meters tall and did not shoot, and the impact is not a top-notch striker. It is indeed not very popular.

"Wei, although Tucker can attack with the ball from beyond the three-point line, you can use the method of shrinking defense to contain him today. You can let him shoot, but don't let him break through, understand?" After introducing the basic situation , Sutton did not forget to remind Wayne.

   Whether Wayne can deal with the super newcomer of the Horns will be the key to whether the game can be won.

   From a few months on, Sutton started to worry about Tucker.

   Now, it's finally time to verify the effect.

   "I will do it, coach." Wayne made an "OK" gesture to Sutton.

   Isn't this the way to deal with Lao Zhan in the future?

   is just getting caught!

   At that time, the fans, who didn't know how to put the shots.

   This time, Wayne's confidence also doubled.

   Today at both offensive and defensive ends, he has a chance to eat Tucker clearly!

   Larry Bird returned home after attending a regular meeting of the team's management and leaned tiredly on the sofa.

   The meeting should have been held long ago, but Carlisle was unable to be there because of training, so Bird simply postponed the meeting.

   In Bird's team, he gave head coach Rick Carlisle a high status.

   It is not difficult to see this from the postponement of the meeting for Carlisle alone.

   Strictly speaking, the head coach is also a part-time job, not a member of the management, and the head coach will not participate in this kind of meeting.

   But Bird insisted on letting Carlisle participate in the meeting on the grounds: "As a head coach, he is qualified to participate in all aspects of team building."

   Bird's trust in Carlisle is not groundless, and their friendship and cooperation have lasted for many years.

   I won’t talk about it as a player. Carlisle and Bird have always had a good relationship.

   After the start of his coaching career, Carlisle also gave up the opportunity to be the head coach of other teams and followed Bird as his chief assistant.

   It was during the three years that they worked together to coach the Pacers to a new level.

   For Carlisle's coaching level, Bird knows and trusts very much.

   In fact, when he stepped down in 2000, Bird wanted Carlisle to take his place. As a result, Donny Walsh chose the more famous "Smiling Assassin."

   After Bird came to power this year, he immediately righted Carlisle and fired Thomas almost relentlessly.

   This shows how much Bird attaches importance to Carlisle.

   Bird was lying down, when the phone rang suddenly.

   He picked it up and saw that it was a text message from Carlisle.

   "Do you watch TV? I heard that tonight's game will be very exciting."

   "Game? TV?" Byrd scratched his head, remembering the scout report that he never picked up after he threw it on the table yesterday.

   Yes, that Chinese student's competition seems to be played tonight.

   Being idle is also idle, so Bird turned on the TV and tuned to a channel that broadcast the game.

   Of course, Bird didn't expect anything from a player who ranked second in the draft prediction.

   He watched this game purely to kill the time after get off work.

   On the TV screen, the director gave Wayne's average data for the last 10 games, and these numbers are as beautiful as those reported in the scout report.

   After the data, the screen showed Wayne who was warming up.

   By just looking at it, Bird realized that something was wrong.

   The height of this guy is impossible to be only 2 meters 06!

   This is Bird's instinct as an MVP player and best coach!

   Looking at the coach of the Cowboys again, Eddie Sutton, the old churros, Bird believes that Wayne's height is full of moisture.

   Old man Sutton, that's an old liar!

   If Wayne's real height is more than 2.10 meters, then this game is really interesting.

  Because Bird knew that Carlisle was particularly fond of shooting, especially the four players who could shoot three-pointers.

   So this season, Carlisle also let O'Neal practice three-pointers.

   This Chinese student... seems to suit Carlisle's appetite.

   No wonder he sent text messages to let himself watch the game.

   With the referee's whistle on the TV, the game officially started.

   Bird stared at the TV intently, hoping to get some surprises.

   As soon as the Cowboys players who won the first strike, they could clearly feel the opponent's toughness on the defensive end.

   This kind of toughness is completely different from the previous 10 games.

   The Longhorns players really intend to fight the Cowboys. They seem to play this game as a real final.

   Wayne looked at Tucker in front of him, good fellow, how is this figure like a freshman brother.

  Although his face looks a lot greener, but he is really big, and he will have a taste in the NBA in the future.

   He haunts Wayne all the time. Now, no Big Twelve league team dares to underestimate Wayne's threat.

   Therefore, the Longhorns also have a lot of defensive strategies for Wayne.

   Tucker's tight fit is the first step.

   At this time, John Lucas passed the ball to Tony Allen. The Tony teacher looked at Wayne and then at the basket. He hadn't decided whether to pass the ball or go it alone.

   He didn't forget Wayne's request for more action.

   At this time, Wayne suddenly ran beyond the three-point line and set up a screen for Tony Allen. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com

   But Tucker was not deceived. He knew that if he changed defense rashly, Wayne would get an open three-pointer.

   Therefore, Tucker always remains in front of Wayne.

   Sure enough, Tony Aru broke the ball back to Wayne.

   Tucker raised one hand high and the other interfered with the basketball. His defense was not leaking!

   But even in the case of being pressed by Tucker, Wayne still pulled up and shot.

   "This..." Bird smiled. This guy's shot selection is too bad, right? Who else can make this kind of extremely pretending ball except by accident?

"brush!"

   Basketball hit the net, 3-0. Wayne took the lead for the Cowboys and gave Bird the answer!

   As Wayne had expected before, under the influence of a series of factors such as height and wingspan, shooting action and shooting bag effect, Tucker has no way to effectively interfere!

  On the first serve, Wayne hit the hearts without defensively!

   Tucker was stunned, he thought he had done a good job defensively.

   However, Wayne's shots are still calm and hollow.

   For Tucker, who is known for his defensive skills, he gets a face being **** when he comes up, which is almost humiliating.

   Wayne looked at Tucker in a daze, spread his hands: "Welcome to the Big Twelve League, rookie, this ball is free."

   Wayne finished speaking and actively began to retreat.

   So cool, so cool, I feel it!

   No wonder there are so many people in the NBA who like to bully rookies, because it is so enjoyable!

   And, today the goal was really easy, Tucker was completely helpless.

   Wayne has a hunch that today this springboard will bounce himself high.
