Basketball is Faith - Chapter 42
Watching Liu Xiaodong’s offensive collection replayed on the big screen, Zhang Tiejun showed a relaxed smile. He can finally breathe a sigh of relief now.
He has been under the most pressure these days, especially after deciding to make Liu Xiaodong the starting point, the school leaders also specifically called to ask during the intermission.
Although he has repeatedly assured that there is no problem, but if Liu Xiaodong really can’t perform well, causing the team to stop at the divisional game, he will not be far from being laid off as the head coach.
Fortunately, it turned out that his choice was right. Liu Xiaodong had an unexpected effect on the court, and the defensive tactics originally formulated by Gulin University were all in vain.
“You played great! I decided to pass you a few more shots in the future, so that you have enough shots!” After Guo Cheng hugged Liu Xiaodong, he couldn’t suppress his excitement!
“Thank you! This game can be won, thanks to your amazing performance!” Liu Mu said honestly. He knew that as the captain, he was only 10 points and 7 rebounds in the game is not convincing.
“You play better than me! I hope you will be so good in the future!” Hou Wei said calmly. He and Sun Bin faced off and knew how difficult it is to play such an efficient offense under Sun Bin’s defense!
After a brief celebration, the players at Crane City University are ready to go back to the locker room to rest. After all, many of them are already very tired.
The reporters were unwilling to let them go, especially Liu Xiaodong, the best player of the game, was the first to be surrounded by several reporters.
The male photographer of Sports Channel immediately focused the camera on Liu Xiaodong. He knew very well who was the focus of the interview.
“Hello Xiaodong, I’m Zhang Wei, the commentator of the Sports Channel! Let’s say hello to the audience in front of the TV!”
“Hello Director Zhang, I am very happy to meet the audience in front of the TV. I am Liu Xiaodong, a player from Crane City University!”
“Okay, then our interview officially begins! First of all, congratulations to you and the team for their victory in this game. How did you achieve the overtake of Gulin University in the halftime, especially in the application of tactics, what are your measures?”
“Thank you! We strengthened the defensive intensity in the second half, especially the double-teaming tactics against Sun Bin, which limited his shooting efficiency.”
“How do you feel when you start for yourself for the first time and score 33 points on 16 of 28 shots efficiently?”
“It’s all teammates who pass the ball well, especially Guo Cheng. His assists always allow me to receive the ball and shoot in the right position.”
“Do you think the team still has those shortcomings, how do you need to improve in the future?”
“With my current tactical vision, it is not enough to see the team’s problems. I can only say that my shortcomings are shooting and confrontation!” Liu Xiaodong certainly wouldn’t say that his team is not good. In his opinion, Hecheng University is The best team! But he knew that he could not say that, otherwise it would cause a burst of chaos.
Zhang Wei also nodded secretly. He knew that the newcomer in front of him was very calm, not as arrogant as other geniuses. He dared to pat his chest and say that his team is the best, without any change.
“Hello, Liu Xiaodong! After the league is over, will you sign up for the CBA draft?” After seeing the sports channel interview, the female reporter of the “Sports Observer” rushed to ask questions before other colleagues.
“I haven’t considered this issue yet. Everything has to wait until the end of the league before I can make a decision!” Liu Xiaodong replied perfunctorily. How can he think about it now, just thinking about how to win the college league championship. !
“Do you think Crane City University can beat the next opponent and break into the top 16?” The female reporter of the “Sports Observer” saw that the original question did not achieve the desired result, so she changed her direction in time.
“I still don’t know who my opponent is, so I can’t answer this question yet.” Liu Xiaodong knew that this question was difficult to answer, so he could only deal with it carefully.
After , several media reporters continued to ask questions. Liu Xiaodong also answered incomprehensibly. He tried his best to say something innocent. He couldn’t cope with it, so he said he couldn’t do it, and he still needs to train hard to make himself better!
Looking at Liu Xiaodong who walked into the player’s channel, and the reporters who interviewed him, they looked at each other, and they all saw their appreciation for this newcomer in each other’s eyes.
They interviewed many talented players, and they were more or less proud and complacent. It’s really rare to be humble and cautious like Liu Xiaodong!
Liu Xiaodong’s humble and polite character, and the talent that he showed in the competition, made the media reporters who came here decide to write a headline article for him to help Liu Xiaodong improve his reputation.
A nationwide live broadcast game ended like this. Liu Xiaodong sat in the bus rented by Crane City University and fell asleep tiredly.
He still doesn’t know, there are already several CBA team coaches (managers) who have noticed him as a potential newcomer through live television.
At this time, in the Xunxing Club Arena in the southern city of Mincheng, coach Li Dacheng is chatting with a player with a Guozi face~www.mtlnovel.com~Lao Liu, this season, you can come to me and that’s right. You can be sure that it will be at the end of the season. There can be one more championship ring! ”
“I think the team still needs to reinforce some immediate combat power. Don’t expect me to play the whole game. These legs no longer allow me to do this.” The player named Lao Liu patted the pair to torture him for a long time. His knees are full of loneliness.
“I know this, you are already 37 years old, I will control your playing time and ensure your health!”
“That’s good! I think you have to work **** the free market and draft, soliciting a few players who can play and fresh blood!”
“It’s not easy to get players who can play in actual combat. Now every team is tying up capable players to death. It is not feasible to sign directly with a high salary. We don’t have the right bargaining chips in exchange. We can only play in the draft. I’ve figured out a way.”
“Well, if it’s a draft, I think you can think about it. The young man who was interviewed just now, his fighting spirit makes me really like it!”
“Well! There is a rare player you like. I immediately sent someone to contact the young man named Liu Xiaodong. It just so happened that the team had a first-round pick to pick him!”
“Don’t worry, wait for the next game and watch again to see if he has any skills he hasn’t come up with!” Old Liu said that was just a slow-down strategy. He didn’t think that the rookie had only the strength at the end of the first round.
Judging from today’s performance alone, there is more than this pick. When the team really recognizes the potential of the newcomer, he believes that he will improve the draft pick.
Li Dacheng is right to think about it, it is too early to make a decision, it is better to observe again. By the way, taking advantage of the gap in these few days, he can also arrange manpower to check the newcomer’s information carefully.
