In the video, this No.9 was fighting one-on-one with the others, using his speed, strength and skill to play with the defense players, sending the ball into the basket again and again.
Although it was just warm-up, he seemed to have endless energy. Every time he reached the bottom of the basket, he would slam the basket with all his might. Every time he did, he would release a deafening roar!
"This No. 9 forward is called Qian Gang, he's good at breaking through and scoring three goals. He was once famous in the Pro Alliance, but was exposed because of the ball game and the violence on the court. He was eventually banned by the Pro Alliance for life."
"Even though he was eliminated by the pro team, he was still very popular in the Amateur team. He was the core member of the team. I heard that Huang Tianjun paid him to come over." Xiao Xue explained to Su Xiaoqiao.
Next was a clip of a match. On both sides, one was an elite team, and the other was the Jin Quan University team from the next city.
Su Xiaoqiao was very clear about the Jin Quan University team's strength. Last year, Jin Quan University had a friendly basketball match with Jianghai University, in the end, Jin Quan University won by 112 to 74 points.
In the video, the elite team and Jinquan University team were engaged in an intense attack and defense. Qian Gang first used a butterfly move to play with the opposing defense players and scored points.
In the next round, just as one of the Jin Quan University's main defender was about to break through, Qian Jin who was defending him suddenly stretched out a leg and kicked the latter's ankle.
Although the referee was blowing on the penalty box, the latter was already hugging his ankle and lying on the ground. On the other hand, Qian Gang was raising his hand in an innocent manner, which made people especially angry.
Immediately after, Jin Quan's team's ace forward was punched in the stomach by Qian Jin, and fell to the ground without any apology. Qian Gang even applauded his teammates to celebrate.
The members of the elite team were mostly hooligans. Not only did they swarm forward, they even held chairs, water bottles, and other weapons in their hands. The members of the team from the Jin Quan University were only university students, they had never seen such a formation before, so they were naturally beaten very miserably.
In the end, the match ended without any complications. It was said that the police had intervened after the match, but the elite team had relied on their backing to suppress the matter and didn't receive any punishment.
After watching the entire video, Su Xiaoqiao finally understood the meaning behind Xiao Xue's crude style. In fact, from a certain perspective, the members of the Yingjie team did not go on stage to play, but to fight!
They were a bunch of basketball hooligans, but they were also the ones that the regular teams didn't want to meet the most.
No one wants to lie in bed for two months because of a match, let alone waste their basketball career because of it.
"Xiaoqiao, I advise you to tell your friend that you are not allowed to compete with a member of the Ying Jie team, otherwise, you will be injured, disabled, or even forced to stay in your room!"
Before he finished his sentence, he saw the door of the gymnasium being pushed open with a bang. A young man wearing sunglasses walked in with a basketball in his hand.
Su Xiaoqiao had just watched the video, so he naturally recognized him immediately. This person was the absolute main force of Yingjie's team — — Qian Gang.
"Qian Gang, you're finally here." Huang Tianjun welcomed him with a beaming smile and shook his hand before whispering in his ear, "I'll be counting on you for this match. I've already prepared ten thousand yuan for my hard work."
As he spoke, he opened his shirt to reveal a thick red packet in his pocket.
When he saw the red packet, Qian Gang's expression immediately became a lot more amiable. He smiled and said, "Brother Jun is too courteous."
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to grab the red packet, but Huang Tianjun took a step back and put the red packet away: "This red packet, can you wait until we win the match before you take it?"
"Oh, that's fine too!" Qian Gang shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "It will only take a few minutes anyway. Where is the opponent and when will the match begin?"
"Wait a moment, the opponent is about to arrive. Why don't you go on stage and warm up?"
"Sure." Qian Gang nodded at Huang Tianjun as he lazily walked onto the stadium to warm up.
At this moment, Coach Zhao from the basketball team walked into the basketball court with a tall and somewhat familiar middle-aged man. They were chatting as they walked. It seemed like they had known each other for a long time!
"Coach, why are you here?" Xiao Xue walked up and asked.
"Oh, bring an old friend to see the basketball team practice!" "Let me introduce him to you. This is, the coach of the Jianghai City Tianyu Basketball Club. When we were young, we were teammates.
"Hello, Coach Zhou!" It was only then that Xiao Xue remembered that she had seen this Zhou Nanyu on TV before. The Tianyu Basketball Club was ranked in the upper echelons of the national professional basketball league and had a lot of influence around Jianghai City. As the coach of the Tianyu Club, Zhou Nanyu wasn't considered famous in the sports world either!
"Old Zhao, your school team members' physical qualities are pretty good!" Zhou Nanyu saw the warm up members on stage at first glance, and immediately revealed a look of praise.
Although Qian Gang had only done simple shooting and jumping, Zhou Nanyu could already tell that he had decent physical fitness and skill level with a single glance.
"Ah, normal, but …" Coach Zhao said with a face full of smiles. Halfway through his words, he suddenly froze.
He discovered that his school team members were all sitting below the field. Some of them hadn't even changed into their jersey, while the person warming up on the field was someone he didn't know.
And at this time, Zhou Nanyu noticed the problem: "Oh, isn't number nine Qian Gang? "He's a good player who was chosen to be part of the national youth training team. If it wasn't for the fakes and violence on the field, he would probably be a member of the national team by now. How could he be on your school team?"
"This …" Coach Zhao didn't know what to say, but it was fortunate that Xiao Xue was just beside him. When she heard this, she immediately explained everything that had happened.
"Heroic team?" I have heard of this team before! " Zhou Nanyu frowned slightly, and said: "Let's not talk about the strength of this team, the key point is that their fighting style is extremely rough, and could easily cause the opponent to get injured, do your school team members really want to compete with them?"
