Chapter 49: sarcasm from lawson

"Zuo Li, the only problem seems to be that he is too thin. His height data is great, his height and wingspan are good, and he is skilled in ball-handling, very fast, and plays as a defender. Such a guy has the ability to become The most inexplicable player on the high school court, if he does not encounter injuries, this is also the biggest hidden danger, after all, he is Asian, and his confrontation ability needs to be questioned."

"And this... Needless to say, Ty Lawson, we have all heard about it, this is his senior year, he hopes to transfer from Archbishop McNamara to our school, the purpose is not to say, this guy He also has great potential, a stocky guard, full of strength, excellent breakthrough ability, and is now the No. 1 guard in Maryland high school."

"Not surprisingly, the last person on our school's roster this year will be selected from these two people. Let's talk about it and see what you think."

In the sports conference room of Oak Hill High School, Steve Smith summoned all the assistants and relevant school staff to come here for a meeting. The purpose is naturally to determine the last candidate. This is what they have to do before every season. They only have so many places in a season, but the number of people who want to join their team every year is more than a thousand people. Among them are the teenage talents who have become famous in various states, and there are all kinds of guys who want to transfer to the gilt, which makes them Be very careful about each position.

And Steve Smith was a little hesitant after reading the information of the two. Although he felt that Lawson was very suitable, Zuo Li's physical data and videotape made him shaken. What if it was a good piece of jade, lost it It's a pity too.

After all, for people from other states, if they want to get into their teams, they can only rely on special recruits to transfer schools. If they miss it, they have to wait for the next year.

"Of course it's Lawson, it doesn't matter, he will be our immediate force, we lost two games last season, Durant has joined this season, although Josh Smith has left the team, we The strength has not been affected, but we still need a reliable defender. Compared with the unknown Zuoli, Lawson is obviously more suitable for our needs." The first assistant coach Brown was speaking, and this Lawson was recommended by him. Come, so he naturally supports his choice.

However, some people have different opinions: "Maybe we should let this guy Zuo Li come for trial training. His physical data is really good." The fitness coach said.

Obviously, everyone's opinions are not unified, but at this time, Steve's assistant came in with a newspaper: "Coach Steve, you'd better look at this."

Steve picked up the newspaper and saw that it was a photo of Zuo Li, and the content of the news was the result of the streetball fight between Zuo Li and Alston. When he opened the headline of the newspaper, they wrote: "The Asian rookie defeated the streetball king, the new king was born, and the streetball king changed hands!"

"Good guy, no wonder I haven't heard of it before. It turned out to be streetball, no wonder..." Brown said with a look of disdain.

"Okay, then that's it." The fitness coach spread his hands.

And Steve also put down the newspaper: "Okay, then we'll decide. The last place will be given to... Lawson! Let him hurry up and report. As for Zuo Li, please refuse."

Perhaps Zuo Li never dreamed that it would make him shine, and the game that everyone knows about in the entire streetball circle would make him disqualified from entering Oak Hill High School.

The reason is precisely because Zuo Li was born in streetball, the mainstream basketball world still looks down on streetball, especially the academies, they think that streetball will make a person's playing habits worse, such as Brown's When Durant made a strict plan, one of the keys was to never play wildball on the street.

Brown believes that the street field ball will only make Durant develop bad habits, and Durant listens to the coach's words and never plays field ball.

Moreover, they pay attention to teamwork, and they think that people who play streetball will become very independent and individual-centric, which is obviously something they don't want to see.

Although these points did not apply to Zuo Li, they didn't know it, so Zuo Li was rejected for the first time in his life...

When Zuo Li received the rejection notice two days later, he was a bit sane. The joy of signing a 5-year contract with AND1 the day before yesterday was gone. He couldn't figure out what the problem was. After all, no one could think of it. , just because of his street status, he was turned away.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, this was the first time he encountered a setback after transmigration, and it also disrupted his overall plan, and it seemed that everything was about to start anew.

"Relax, kid, you're still the best, it's their loss if they don't get you." Hibbert could only comfort his disciple like this, while secretly annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. After all, it was the No. 1 basketball high school in the United States.

"I know the coach, it doesn't matter, let's change our minds and start over." Zuo Li thought about it when he got there, it doesn't matter, high school doesn't care anyway, the same is true for changing places, he always believes that he can play his mind no matter where he is. The desired result But after a day, Zuo Li found that he could not restrain his emotions.

This is the time when Oak Hill High School holds a press conference every year to announce the list. Well-known schools are always grand, 12 people and the coaching staff have appeared one after another, and the media are also filming one after another. , just lost 4 games, this winning percentage is too lazy to count.

At the beginning, the atmosphere was very mild, but when it came to the interview, the newly added Ty Lawson became the focus. After all, he was a new transferee, and reporters would ask a few symbolic questions, but Ty Lawson fired directly.

"I'm from Maryland, I'm here to get more wins, and I heard that Coach Steve chose me between an Asian who played streetball and me, and I have to say, this is what he did I've made the wisest decision, and compared to that incompetent Asian, I'm the best one." Ty Lawson was extremely arrogant in pointing fingers in front of the media.

"Um???!!!"

The reporters were excited. I didn't expect that there would be unexpected harvests in this interview. There is too much information inside and outside the words.

So the reporter hurriedly asked, "Who is that Asian! Can you tell me?"

"Humph, of course he likes to promote and hype himself. His strength is not very good, but he is just touted. Is street basketball good and useful? This is a regular playing field." Ty Lawson is obviously very resentful, as Maryland In the first backcourt, when I learned that I was almost squeezed out by an Asian national, my mentality was obviously blown up.

"Damn, this idiot." Coach Steve kept a smile on his lips, and he was already scolding his mother in his heart. This Lawson is obviously a troublemaker. There is too much nonsense, and he is too similar to Beasley's thorn.

But obviously, Lawson doesn't know all this...
