0017: I'm a good student
Leon Bob was much more enthusiastic than a puppy when he faced a scout.
He gave Edward a detailed introduction to the puppy and made an aggressive pitch.
When Edward learned about the puppy's bounce height, bench press stats and arm span, he was completely stunned.
But at the same time, Leon Bob does not hide the puppy's coordination and limb control, which worries Edward.
So, he asked two very crucial questions: "How long do you think Snoopy will be able to adjust to his sudden increase in height?" Also, do you think his height will continue to develop? ”
These two issues are directly related to the puppy's NBA prospects.
If the puppy is able to regain its dexterity and coordination, then... He's going to be a good striker at the very least.
And if the puppy's height continues to grow, reaching more than two meters, then... He has the potential to be a Ben Wallace-type defensive center.
"I don't know."
Leon Bob replied very honestly, "I can only train him hard, and God will do the rest!" ”
Edward pursed his lips and nodded, he looked at the nonchalant puppy, "I'll keep an eye on you, I hope you don't let me down in the end." ”
"I think you can keep an eye on me."
The puppy shrugged his shoulders and told Edward seriously, "The NBA doesn't appeal to me. ”
Edward smiled, he was confident, and said, "That's because you haven't really touched the edge of the NBA yet." I'm sure you'll never be able to hold back the burning desire in your heart as soon as you glance inside. Professional sports are the most exciting battlefield for men, where you can get all the loot you want. Money, fame, women, you name it. ”
He said it very seductively.
Dugg's head filtered slightly, he didn't answer, and there was no immediate look of yearning on his face.
Edward found the puppy's reaction amusing, and after a brief encounter, he felt that the puppy's aura was a perfect match for the San Antonio gang...... He has a wooden and serious sense of humor.
The game on the pitch continues.
After Edward left his business card, he returned to the scouting bench and had to continue his work.
In his opinion, there are many players on the court who fit the middle to the end of the first round, UCLA forward Bamot, point guard Holiday and even Darren Collison all fit into this category, as well as USC's Tygibson and DeRozan.
And, of course, add Westbrook and Snoopy the dog on the UCLA bench.
He suddenly felt that he had gained a lot tonight.
The USC on the court gradually came to their senses, led by OJ Mayo, and the trident composed of two forward partners, Tygibson and DeRozan, surpassed the UCLA trio in offensive threat, and Darren Collison and Holiday were even inferior to OJ Mayo, who was a shooting guard, in terms of ball distribution.
Of course... Westbrook on the bench isn't necessarily better than OJ Mayo.
But he at least knows how to pass the ball to Kevin Love.
And these three people obviously regarded Kevin Love as a hostile object.
This makes the strongest point of attack on the inside of UCLA an ornament.
At halftime, USC extended its lead to eight points.
Kevin Lefu walked to the bench in a huff, he has always been an honest and loyal man.
But now he thinks everything is so bad that he slams the towel on the ground: "I'm not a track and field athlete, and I don't want to continue boring switchbacks." ”
He was furious.
So Mr. Ben Holland put him on the bench.
He allowed Darren Collisson's small team to go on the pitch to fight O.J. Mayo.
Kevin Love and Lasse Westbrook were very dissatisfied with Ben Holland's arrangement, and Westbrook was very unconvinced: "Why? Obviously, we played better. ”
Ben Holland smiled slightly: "So, I'm going to save you until the round of 64." ”
This sentence immediately made Westbrook smile, and he finally figured it out: it turns out that we are trump cards.
It's just that he still has a pimple in his heart: For the sake of the heavenly Bals, I still want to compete with OJ Mayo.
Drip!
A quick whistle called the game to a halt.
Darren Collison collapsed in the paint area of the frontcourt, took advantage of Luke Bamot's pick-and-roll to rush to the free throw line, and then was slapped by Tygibson on the driving layup, and his left foot accidentally stepped on the instep of Ranny as he landed.
Immediately, a severe sprain occurred, and he fell to the ground, clutching his ankle and screaming.
UCLA's medical team rushed onto the court and quickly used scissors to cut the sneakers and bandages.
His swollen ankle was revealed, and the team doctor asked him to try to twist the joint, but Darren Collison was unable to complete the simple command.
The senior veteran doctor's expression was solemn.
He hurriedly asked the stadium staff to bring him a stretcher and carry him out.
"Darren Collisson's season is over."
Senior team doctor Robert told Mr. Ben Holland before leaving the arena.
This made Ben Holland's mood fall to the bottom.
Darren Collison is the team's ace point guard, although Westbrook is on a rapid rise. However, no one can deny that the experienced Darren Collison is better at controlling the pace and is more integrated into the UCLA system.
Before Collison was injured, Ben Holland believed that with the team's original foundation, Westbrook's impact and Snoopy's strong defense, UCLA would become stronger and stronger, and even make it to the NCAA Final Four and even the championship.
But now.
His gaze was on Westbrook.
"Will he be able to take on the responsibility of controlling the tempo of the game?"
He was skeptical of that. Westbrook, who has improved rapidly in physical fitness, is now invincible, but he doesn't have many moves to get into position, and he is only proficient in blocking the split ball in the UCLA system.
So... How does it take for the team to function?
He suddenly felt a headache.
It was as if I had fallen from heaven to hell at the slightest thought.
At this point, the puppy, who was sitting at the end of the bench, stood up, stretched out, shook his shoulders, and then changed his position and continued to sit back in his position.
He seemed idle and unconcerned about the state of the game. Even, his eyes have already been empty.
At this time, he was thinking about the academic paper "What is the inevitable and accidental connection between the theory of price discrimination and the paradox of frugality".
You can't let basketball affect your studies.
His thoughts were simple.
I'm going to a New Year's party tomorrow, and if I can't write this essay on Thursday, Professor Nelson might actually ask me to help him prune the damn smelly flower beds in his back garden.
"Snoopy."
Ben Holland walked over and called his name.
The puppy subconsciously raised his head.
Ben Holland asked him, "Your body doesn't prevent you from learning to pass, does it?" ”
