I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 12: Ron Howard's TV

   "Brother Luo, what are these things? What do these messy times on TV mean?"

"For those numbers, the first one is the time of a single game, which is 12 minutes in total. The NBA game is divided into the first and second halves, four quarters, each of which has 12 points, while the latter number is the time of each offensive round, totaling 12 minutes. It’s 24 seconds, that is to say, each team has only 24 seconds for each offensive round on the court, and the offense needs to be completed within 24 seconds."

   "Then, these times can only pass and can't be added?"

"The time of the first quarter will not increase, and the time of each subsequent attack may increase. Assuming that the time of one's offensive round is already less than 14 seconds, and the opponent does not foul the free throw or kick the ball, the offensive time does not matter. It will be adjusted to 14 seconds."

"so it is."

   "So, on the court, as a defensive player, don't kick the ball with your feet or make fouls if you don't have to."

   "Understood, Brother Luo, what does that blue silly No.34 and this black No.45 do in the middle?"

   "They are jumping the ball, the ball is thrown in the air by the referee, whoever grabs the basketball, their team will get the first chance of attack in this game."

   "What about this, the blue No. 2 passes the blue No. 8. Why does the blue No. 8 jump suddenly? Is it a cramp?"

"It's not a cramp. The No. 2 dribble guard didn't pass the ball in good timing. After half the dribble, he couldn't concentrate. He instinctively passed the basketball to No. 8, but he didn't realize that No. 8 has not passed the half. If No. 8 catches the ball in the backcourt, then it is a mistake and will exchange the ball."

   "Isn't this cheating?"

"It's really a pitfall. So, on the court, you must pay attention, especially when passing the ball to your teammates. Otherwise, it is very easy to make mistakes. Also, don't pass to teammates who are still in the backcourt. ball."

   Ron Howard was very detailed and patient.

   And Chen Xiao listened very seriously, and kept nodding.

   "What about this? What does the blue stupid No. 34 mean when he is going in and out of the basket? He doesn't want to stay inside, so why is he still dissatisfied with that No. 8 scolding?"

   "It's not that he doesn't want to stay inside. No. 8 doesn't pass the ball. He can't stand inside for more than 3 seconds. This is called the three-second offensive rule. He is complaining to No. 8 that he can pass the ball earlier."

   "It turns out like..."

   Uh, Chen Xiao's "this" hasn't been finished yet, the blue number 8 passed the ball... directly passed the ball from the head of No. 34 and hit the baseline stand behind No. 34.

   Bad pass.

  This, this, this...

   Chen Xiao was dumbfounded.

   Is this number 8 so unique?

   Even if he is a beginner, he thinks that the ball of No. 8 must be deliberate!

   Look, look, look, No. 8 actually shrugs and sticks out tongue to No. 34!

   is even pretending to be cute!

   And the big stupid man No. 34's already black face is black and blue.

   "Brother Luo, is there a contradiction between the blue number 8 and the blue number 34?"

   "Can you see it?"

   "I think people who are not blind should be able to see it."

  "..."

   Ron Howard didn't know what to say for a moment.

  He wants to change channels.

   This is the first complete basketball game that Chen watched.

   He was afraid that this game would ruin Chen, an innocent beginner.

   I can see that Chen Xiao looks so enthusiastic, and he can't bear to let him go.

   In the end, Ron Howard could only sigh in his heart and continue to explain the game and rules for Chen Xiao.

"how do you feel?"

   "O'Neal and Kobe are really strong!"

   After watching the game, Chen Xiao no longer called them the blue number 34 and 8.

   After watching the game between the Lakers and the Nuggets, Chen Xiao really learned a lot.

   I learned about the rules of the NBA, and indirectly learned that some NCAA rules are different from those of the NBA.

   And not only basketball rules, but also a lot of interesting gossip.

   Brother Luo's explanation is very detailed and patient.

   The two commentaries on TV are also very interesting.

   The first complete basketball game he watched in his life gave him some unfulfilled feelings.

   Actually Ron Howard asked Chen Xiao how he wanted to know how he knew the rules of basketball.

   Seeing Chen Xiao's admiration and interest in O'Neal and Kobe, Ron Howard did not ask again, but chose to follow Chen Xiao.

   "O'Neal was the NBA's regular season MVP, All-Star MVP, Finals MVP, and scoring leader last season. He is now the strongest player in the NBA."

   "And Kobe is an NBA All-Star starter, last season's best team first team, best defensive team second team, is now one of the strongest guards in the NBA."

  Regular season MVP

   All-Star MVP

   Finals MVP

   Score King

   for a while

   Defensive Second Team

All-Star

  ...

  ...

   The various tall nouns that Chen Xiao had heard or never heard before in Ron Howard's mouth really made Chen Xiao dizzy.

   These prefix nouns are very powerful, right?

   For a while, Chen Xiao felt O'Neill and Kobe on TV, and felt that the two of them were surrounded by a circle of sacred light.

   The blank expression on Chen Xiao's face made Ron Howard beside him smile.

   He had it before.

   Which beginner has never imagined that he can become Jordan, O'Neal, Duncan, Iverson, Kobe in the future?

   Although he will understand that fantasy is fantasy after all, and reality is reality, he doesn't want to pierce Chen Xiao's fantasy now.

   Only those who have dreams and fantasies will be happy.

   Although it's just the happiness I feel.

   However, after more than a decade or two, they can still brag to their children if they can still be a role player in the NBA.

   Your father was also likely to become Jordan, Kobe, O'Neal.

   My children will ask, really?

   Really, just in a dream.

   So, Chen, continue to maintain your beginner's heart, this is really precious.

   "They must make a lot of money..."

  "..."

What? !

   Chen Xiao’s heartfelt emotion made Ron Howard, who had taken a sip of water after explaining for a long time, directly ‘puffed’, and a large sip of water was sprayed onto the TV.

   Soon, Chen Xiao and Ron Howard heard the cry of ‘zizizi’ from the TV...

   Alas, my friends, I’m the new TV set of Ron Howard's family, and the owner of the antique color TV set is an old antique TV.

   I was in the repair shop a few days ago, and a young man came with a torn apart LCD TV. I said, brother, what's the matter with you, how can you make yourself so miserable.

   I have a look! Ouch! It turned out that I was not careful and didn't carry it and was smashed.

   He said, it was not that he was not careful, nor was he not smashing waste. He said a bunch of the latest products, water and fire, anti-theft, various advantages.

   I said stop, you guys, the latest TVs, high-tech TVs, know that you can’t use the bells and whistles in an assembly plant. When it’s critical, it won’t work.

   He was not convinced, saying that the basketball is too hard and too strong.

   Alas... I said kid, if you let him hit my face with two basketballs, he can't hit me.

   He said you are useless.

   I said that I am useful. This is Huajin. Traditional TV talks about Huajin. The thick face is rich in money. The two hundred catties of furious old lady can't touch my face with a broom. This kid can't move me.

   He didn't believe it, he insisted on comparing with me, and said that I would lie in with him in a few days.

  Traditional TV talks about Huajin, and my Huajin has become so superb, it is impossible to lie back.

   But I didn't expect that, this kid chuckled, and soon, a mouthful of cold water came directly to my face.

Ah, I was careless. There was no flash. The water hit my face. After two seconds, I started to cry at that time. I said stop... Young man, you don’t care about ethics. You said it was OK to hit with a basketball. Why? Want to squirt suddenly?

Come! cheat! Come! Sneak attack! My six-seven-year-old comrade, is this all right? This is not good.

   I persuaded this young man to rattle his tail.

   reflect on it, and don’t do this again in the future.

   Ah, uh... Jilin must regard peace as the most important thing, talk about the virtues of the machine, and don't fight in the nest.

   Uh, young man, wait, I think I can still rescue it, alas, stop, where are you going to carry me? !

  ...

  ...

   After watching a game, a TV broke down, which Chen Xiao did not expect.

   Fortunately, judging from the expression on Brother Luo's face, if the TV is broken, it will go down. Just change another one. It's not a big deal.

   is so enviable!

   Actually, although Ron Howard was smiling on his face, he didn't know what to say in his heart.

   Brother, this is actually the second one.

   Is it too difficult to be a TV for my house?

   After changing the TV to Ron Howard's house, it was a bit late. Ron Howard wanted to invite Chen Xiao to have a supper, but Chen Xiao refused.

   After watching a wonderful game in the NBA, he feels itchy all over his body now.

   Chen Xiao's performance is so obvious, Ron Howard of course also noticed it, and did not force it to stay.

"Although it's a bit late now, there should be some people in the open-air basketball court east of the dormitory. There are many fans there. Although the strength is not very good, you can also experience the atmosphere of a five-on-five match. Go and see. Bar."

   Chen Xiao couldn't bear it when he heard Ron Howard say so.

   Pulled out his legs and prepared to run, but as soon as he turned around, Chen Xiao stopped again.

"what's happenin?"

   "Brother Luo, do you think that for a beginner like me, which physical attribute is the most important in a court game?"

   "Explosion, speed, and bounce, as long as these three attributes are strong enough, beginners can also have a good space to play on the court."

   "I see, thank you Brother Luo, I'm leaving now."

   Looking at Chen Xiao's back disappearing into the night, Ron Howard also smiled and shook his head.

   This figure is similar to him when he learned to dribble the ball. After watching NBA and NCAA games, he looked for games everywhere.

   "You won't be bullied, right?"

probably not.

   are all amateurs, they can't do it if they want to bully others.

   But, really worrying kid.
