Chapter 7: 7
At ten o'clock on the morning of February 28, the Stanford men's basketball team arrived at the usc basketball hall to train and warm up.
Scott is very excited about the upcoming game, he has been dunking, dunking, non-stop dunking. As he said, he ca n't wait to show his talents. He hopes that he can get attention through this game and get into the sight of nba.
As a basketball player, who does not want to enter the highest hall representing the world basketball world?
Compared to Stanford's active efforts to warm up the game, there was no response from the University of Southern California, and their half was always empty. Although the game was held at 3:30 this afternoon, they didn't seem to have a little time to warm up.
"The arrogant usc really didn't take us seriously." Thomson said angrily.
Li Zhen patted his shoulders and relieved him with a smile.
He couldn't say too much. After all, Stanford's situation is hard to get people to pay attention to. After all, Stanford is not strong at first, plus the two core main injuries, the head coach has run away, how can people think of you?
After lunch.
The team practiced for a while.
As everyone prepares to take a short break to recuperate for the upcoming game, Li Zhen is hungry again ... his appetite exploded violently in these two days.
When he walked into the restaurant next to the stadium, he quickly ordered five burgers.
While eating, he obviously felt that a man sitting opposite was looking at himself. This man is a white man about 30 years old, looks gentle and very self-cultivation.
Li Zhen thought he was surprised by his food intake. He nodded to him with a smile, and then whispered, "I don't eat so much every day, don't be surprised."
He explained so that the man on the opposite side laughed.
He asked: "Are you a Stanford player?"
Li was really surprised at how he knew. This man pointed to Li Zhen's jersey jacket.
Li Zhen quickly met, and then introduced himself generously: "Hello, my name is Bruce Lee, the point guard of Stanford Crimson Reds."
"Hello, Kevin George! A full-time scout at the San Antonio Spurs Club." The white man also reached out and shook Li Zhen.
This surprised Li Zhen.
He didn't expect to come out to add a meal, but he actually encountered the nba scouts that Scott was looking forward to, or the San Antonio Spurs, god! This is too young.
However, surprise was surprised.
Li Zhen did not boast about himself in order to gain his attention, because he knew that professional things were left to the professional. Everyone meets together, too passionate is not a good thing.
Kevin George was a little surprised that Li really calmed down. In many cases, as long as he showed his identity to ncaa players, most of the opponents will immediately change color, treat themselves with a passionate or flattering attitude, and blunt Absolutely speaking about your life experience will be your basketball experience.
And the kid in front of him gave him a very different feeling.
His curiosity couldn't help but improve.
Kevin George appeared in this fast food restaurant because he made an appointment with the point guard Pruitt of the University of Southern California. He is very interested in this player. He thinks that this guy's physical quality has the opportunity to enter the NBA. If he knows his personality and character through further understanding, and determines that it fits with San Antonio's dressing room atmosphere, he will Recommend to management and coaching staff.
But now, it seems that Pruitt is not very suitable for the Spurs standard. He made an appointment to meet at half past ten, but now the time is almost a little faster.
Not being punctual and not respecting the agreement can seriously challenge Gregg Popovich's patience.
"So, is the burger here really so delicious?" Kevin George was bored and talked to Li Zhenpan.
Li Zhen just swallowed the second hamburger, and when he picked up the third hamburger, he replied: "Frankly, I can't tell if it's delicious. I just these two days have an appetite that must be used Suppress the protests in the stomach! "
This is an interesting statement. Kevin George smiled and said: "You eat so much, but so thin. I really envy your digestive ability."
Li Zhen had already put the third burger in his mouth at this time, and he had no time to reply to his question.
"I wish you an excellent performance this afternoon, and I hope these burgers will become your spinach and make you immense." Kevin George stood up and said goodbye to this interesting Stanford player.
He decided not to wait for Pruitt.
However, at this time. A tall black player stepped in from the outside. He was wearing a usc training suit and was about one meter and nine meters tall. His body is already very strong and clearly muscled compared to ncaa players.
However, judging from the expression on his face, he was very tired, even with a sleepy eyes.
"Hey, brother. You are here!"
He walked quickly and hugged Kevin George with great enthusiasm. Then he said: "It's really embarrassing. Our coach has been doing pre-match training. He explained a lot about today's game. I can't get to you in time. 'S date is really bad! "
He speaks quickly, but he is not sincere at all.
Moreover, the alcohol from his mouth clearly revealed that he was lying. He may not be able to get up because of a hangover.
The most important thing is that Li Zhenke did not see any usc players training in the arena.
This is really a low-level lie.
However, neither Kevin George nor Li Zhen planned to take him through.
At this point, Li Zhen had already eaten his fifth burger, and he planned to speed up after eating this ... and left immediately.
He has no habit of intervening in other people's conversations.
But when he was about to finish eating burgers and go away, Pruitt said in a strange tone: "Kevin, did you still invite Stanford players?"
His tone is questionable and dissatisfied, but more disdainful.
Just as Li Zhen was about to answer 'we just happened to sit together', Kevin George said in a gentle voice: "Yes, we just had a pleasant conversation."
Kevin expressed dissatisfaction with Pruitt in his way. In fact, he no longer intends to continue to communicate with Pruitt.
The same is true of Pruitt.
When he saw Li Zhen, he had great doubts on Kevin George's professional ability and was angry. He felt that it was a great insult to Kevin George to put himself with this unknown Stanford backup guard.
While Pruitt was about to go viral.
Suddenly a voice came out of Li Zhen's head: Pan him! Drive him! !
"This guy was drunk and numb last night, and ... really a shameless player. I want to deprive him of his talents. You hurry up and he grabs his power talents !!"
what? ? ?
Li Zhen choking while eating a burger. Drive him? What's the deal?
"I don't think we need to talk anymore, Mr. George. I don't trust your professional vision, you can't just find a player from anywhere, and put him on the same table. I'm a point guard for usc, I 'm the first team player in the Pacific League! Goodbye! "
Pruitt left the sentence and turned away.
Kevin George didn't keep him, he didn't even pretend to be polite, because he was sure that the Spurs absolutely do not need such a player.
He just looked at Li Zhen, who was choking on the hamburger, apologetically: "It's really embarrassing to get you involved."
Li Zhen took a sip of water and swallowed the burger in his mouth.
Then he looked up and told Kevin George very seriously: "The next thing is the war between me and him."
This sentence made Kevin George even more self-reproaching. He felt that the words he used to pull Bruce in were too irresponsible. He thought to himself in what way he should compensate this poor Stanford defender.
But what he did n't know was that there was a 'positive energy baby' in the mind of the Stanford defender who was teaching him how to pan Pruit!
