I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 2: My name is Chen Xiao, I really love basketball!

   My name is Chen Xiao, male, 18 years old, and I come from a county-level city and a rural village in Feng City, Yan City, Jiangsu Province, China.

   As a child from rural China, it is very, very difficult to come to study in the United States.

   Most of my peers in the same village entered the factory directly after graduating from high school, and even many girls from the same village entered the factory directly after graduating from junior high school.

   It is a miracle in the village for students like me who are directly admitted by American universities without taking the college entrance examination.

   It is precisely because of this that both my home and the village have high hopes for me.

   Although the Marquette University I attended is not a top school like Harvard and Yale, it is also in the top 100 in the United States. In particular, the bioengineering major I am studying is Marquette University's trump major, which can be ranked in the top 50 in the United States.

   It is said that the 21st century is the century of biology. In the eyes of everyone, I have a promising future in studying bioengineering at a world-renowned bioengineering school.

   Even the sister Chaoyue, who is less than three years old in the village, looked at me with tears when she saw me off, as if she was saying to me, "Brother Xiao, you must come back in the future!"

  Go for wealth and honor. If you stay in the United States and don't come back to support us, I will definitely be a factory girl when I grow up.

   I don’t want to be like the other brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts in the village. I can only enter the factory in the future!

   Although Chaoyue sister is less than three years old, I always think this little girl is extraordinarily precocious.

   Of course, maybe these are my brain supplements.

   In short, as the first college student to come out of the famous idiot village in Toyo City, my burden is quite heavy.

   So from the moment I boarded the plane and stepped out of the country, I secretly vowed that after studying in the United States, I would definitely return to my motherland, return to the village, and use my own ability to change the face and destiny of the village.

   I am an orphan. My parents went out to work when I was very young and never came back. I heard from the people in the village that I went to sea stealthily and the ship was sunk.

   That is the sadness of dream catchers along the coast of that era.

   Fortunately, when my parents didn't have it, I still didn't know how to be sad.

   When I knew how to grieve, the people in the village made me no more grief.

   It can be said that I grew up eating rice from a hundred families in the village.

   Therefore, whether it is an uncle or brother or a villager like Chaoyue’s sister, they are all relatives I cherish very much.

   "Xiao, your dad said that when he comes back, our village will be completely different, but he never comes back..."

   "If you go out this time, you must come back well."

   "Uncle, don't worry, I went out dignified, and I will definitely come back dignified!"

  As the only hope of the fool village, I had a lot of expectations and fantasies about my future when I went abroad.

   But, no matter how I fantasised, I never thought I would appear on the basketball court.

  In order to study, to change my own destiny and thus change the destiny of the village, I have been studying hard since I was a child and I have almost never participated in other sports except for running.

   After all, I need to run home after school every day, and I need to run back to school every day to go to school. I am still very good at running.

   Of course, although I have never played basketball, football, or sports, but my physical fitness is good. I came from a rural area and it’s normal.

   But even so, I really never thought that when I stepped into the United States, I was directly hit by a so-called basketball player growth system.

   I really don’t know what this system is, and I really don’t know why this gadget hits me, someone who can’t even know how to play basketball!

   Does this so-called basketball player growth system have to choose someone who can’t know how to play basketball?

   If this is the case, am I too lucky or too unfortunate?

   In short, no matter what, when I got this system, all the futures I had imagined became different.

   I can indeed ignore this system and continue to be a future bioengineer.

   Bioengineers of the 21st century can definitely make a lot of money!

   Biology, chemistry, materials, environment!

  Biochemical materials, biology first!

   This is what the elder brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts and teachers in the village say is the most promising, richest and brightest profession in the 21st century!

   This profession can make me prosper and make our village prosper!

  A mere basketball, just want me to change my career?

no way!

   At the most, it’s waiting for me to develop, playing basketball as an amateur!

   Until I came to Milwaukee the next day, when I specifically found the NBA player salary newspaper, I saw a bunch of numbers that seemed to shone with gold and green light.

  In that moment, I, an 18-year-old boy who has never been outside the country, felt that my dreams and future were all distorted...

   Not right!

   Me, Chen Xiao, I don’t like the green and shiny gold, I simply like basketball!

   I am an 18-year old Jordan fan!

   Me, Chen Xiao, I really love basketball!

   In this way, Chen Xiao appeared in the training hall of Marquette University, picked up the basketball in his hand, and slapped the basketball awkwardly under Ron Howard's dark eyes.

  ...

  ...

   "So Tim, this kid doesn't know how to play basketball at all, and then he got into our team?!"

   As the person in charge of this recruitment, listening to the words of the next team coach Tom Klien, Tim Buckley felt his face hot.

   careless!

   This time, he really didn’t expect that someone would not talk about ‘ball ethics’ and attack him as an honest person.

  Who would have thought that someone who knows nothing would participate in the recruitment of an NCAA team?

   He was dazzled by this big victory of recruiting new recruits!

   Thinking of this, the expression on Tim Buckley's face was a little ashamed.

   "Tom, shall we send him out?"

   "No, maybe Tim found us a genius like Olajuwon or Tim Duncan?"

   The expression on Tim Barkley's face became even more ashamed.

  Everyone knows that both Olajuwon and Duncan were formally exposed to systematic basketball training at the age of 15, and then rely on their own basketball quotient and talent to become a generation of superstars. Will this Chinese kid be the next Duncan or Olajuwon?

How can it be!

  Tom just consoled him for this mistake.

   Tom Krien ignored Tim Barkley’s current shame, and unexpectedly showed a funny expression on his face after being surprised.

   "Funny kid."

   Of course, Tom Crean’s attention to Chen Xiao is only for a while. As the head coach of the team, he certainly has to look at all the players.

   Chen Xiao's stay will not determine the team's performance, nor will it determine his next season.

  A person who knows nothing is willing to come here, which means that he really loves basketball.

  The door of basketball was originally opened for everyone who loves it.

   He has no right to close the dream of a man who loves basketball, no matter if he may become the next Duncan or Olajuwon.

   Talent and ability are not important, what is important is love!

  What defense, what iron blood?

   When you have love, you have everything!

   This is the Golden Eagle spirit of Marquette University!

   He may have the Golden Eagle spirit that belongs to this team.

   After Tom Crean looked away from Chen Xiao, he began to investigate other people.

   Except for Ron Howard who is teaching Chen Xiao to dribble, other newly recruited Marquette University players are all undergoing various tests and training under the guidance of the team's trainer.

   Marquette University is still in the registration stage and has not officially opened yet. The start of school will have to wait until May.

   So now the team has no official players.

   During the absence of official players, this is an opportunity for new players to come forward!

  Who doesn't want to make a good impression in the mind of the head coach?

   Others want to get ahead, Ron Howard wants to get ahead even more.

   His personal ability is now invincible in this team without a main force.

   But the basketball game is not only about personal ability, but also team cooperation, coaching requirements, he has too many things to show in front of Tom Klien.

But!

This guy!

   Seeing Chen Xiao's awkward dribbling posture, Ron Howard's face became harder and harder to look.

   Ron Howard's face is ugly, of course Chen Xiao can see it.

   He was quite embarrassed at first.

   He really blocked the way of Ron Howard, a super genius, and dragged him back.

   The team’s trainers are either training physical fitness, or training strength or other aspects, and there is no basic training at all.

   It's not just that the NCAA didn't teach others to play basketball from scratch, and even the NBA doesn't have such a coach.

   Can't dribble?

   Then you shouldn't appear on the NCAA or NBA training ground!

   However, something like embarrassment is really embarrassing and not embarrassing.

   Maybe it is because I have a guilty heart. I don't want to see Ron Howard's Sima's expression. Chen Xiao, who has almost never touched a basketball, is a little evasive and seems immersed in it.

   Of course maybe Ron Howard taught well, maybe he really loves basketball?

   Although Ron Howard looked silly, he was still very serious about teaching.

Moreover, Ron Howard saw Chen Xiao’s original awkward dribbling posture becoming smoother and smoother, and the whole person seemed to be immersed in it. Then he looked at Chen Xiao’s face, the original embarrassing expression has now all become When he was serious, Ron Howard's expression on Sima actually showed a look of surprise.

   This idiot, is he serious?

  He didn't come here to make fun and tarnish basketball. Is he serious?

   18 years old, there used to be no conditions to play basketball, now, still want to play NCAA, and dream of NBA?

  If it's just a hobby, who will come to NCAA, come to NCAA, no matter if there is hope or not, it is for the dream of NBA!

   Thinking of this, and then thinking of his original intention of racking his brains to abandon so many good schools and coming to Marquette University, Ron Howard's originally anxious look relaxed slightly.

   Just like that, Ron Howard stared, shouting coldly, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Chen Xiao sank into it, and the scenery between them was very different from the scenery of other places in the training hall.

   I don't know how long it took, Chen Xiao's eyes flashed, and the basketball in his hand slammed onto his feet.

   "Ding, Ron Howard's dribbling teaching task is completed. Congratulations to the host for gaining 10 points of basketball experience and a breakthrough experience card (informal game)."

   Is the mission completed?

   Chen Xiao was stunned when he thought of the task he had just brushed out.

   He has always felt that this task must be impossible to complete.

   "Ding, Ron Howard issued a dribble teaching task: dribble that satisfies me, task reward: 10 basketball experience points, a breakthrough experience card (informal game)."

   This is the task just now.

   Let Ron Howard be satisfied, how could Ron Howard be satisfied with him!

   His face is so stinky.

Huh?

   Chen Xiao looked at Ron Howard suspiciously. At this time, the look on Ron Howard's face didn't stink.

   It was only for a while, and the look that didn’t smell turned out to be even more smelly than before!

   "Concentrate, start over!"

   This roar, as if the entire training hall is about to explode.

   Not to mention Chen Xiao, even the assistant coach Tim Buckley on one side was stunned.

  Ron isn’t he unhappy?

   This voice, although angry, is not unhappy.

   When Tom Krien on the other side turned his gaze back to Chen Xiao and Ron Howard, his face showed a smile after a moment of surprise.

   "Funny two boys."

   Amidst Ron Howard’s roar and anger, Chen Xiao’s first close contact with basketball was very fortunate, but not at all painful...
