Chapter 1 Handover of the Tactical Core (Part 1)
After Jason Anthony came out of Smith's dormitory, it was almost nine o'clock. After leaving, he did not go back immediately. After walking on campus for a while, Zhubu found that he had arrived at the downstairs of the International Student Apartment without realizing it.
The lights in Chen Junhao's room are on!
"How could I come here?" Anthony was stunned. After wandering downstairs for a while, he decided to go up and sit. Since he had already arrived here, he seemed to be artificial. Going upstairs, he gently knocked on Chen Junhao's door.
Giving up the position of the tactical core is not as easy as Anthony's surface. Of course, compared to the team's victory and the final champion, Anthony doesn't care much about the position of the tactical core. However, when he gives up the position of the tactical core, the team's offense will no longer be based on his own center. This is not easy for Anthony, who is used to dominating the offense. From now on, his performance on the court and his chances in the offense will be directly subject to Chen Junhao.
Give up the core position of tactics. This is Anthony's bottom line. Today's retreat is for the team's victory and for next year's championship. NCAA championship, for which Anthony gave up the opportunity to enter the NBA twice. No one can understand how eager Anthony is for this championship.
The position of the tactical core is also because of Anthony's trust in Chen Junhao. Although he has been together for only a month, Anthony has already deeply trust in Chen Junhao. Not only is Jack a trustworthy teammate on the court. Off the court, he is also a friend Anthony believes is worthy of making.
Perhaps this is the manifestation of the charm of the young emperor's personality.
The door quickly opened, and Chen Junhao appeared in the door. After seeing Anthony, he said in surprise: "Why are you here? Come in quickly." Chen Junhao quickly moved away and let Anthony go in.
"Passing by, come in and see you." Anthony walked into the door with a smile. He looked around the room. He and Anthony and Carman had not changed much when they first came here. It was clean and tidy, and the things in the room were arranged in a well-organized manner. The bedding on the bed was folded into squares and could pass the military standard review. Although the floor in the house was not clean, it could see people, but there was absolutely no obvious dust. The lights in the house were bright, and the doors and windows leading to the balcony were opened. The breeze was gentle and the air in the house was quite fresh. There were fresh clothes hanging on the balcony.
This is definitely the cleanest and refreshing student apartment Anthony has ever seen so far. The boys' apartment is not a problem, but the girls are rarely so refreshing. Not to mention the colorful decorations, all kinds of gadgets are piled up all over the head and tail of the bed.
The photo of Chen Yunyun smiling in the photo frame on the bedside table is a banner hanging on the wall, which is the only decoration in the house. The banner is full of four vigorous and powerful characters, dragons and snakes, but unfortunately Anthony doesn't recognize it.
The desk lamp was on the desk and the book was opened. It was obvious that Chen Junhao was reviewing his homework when Anthony knocked on the door.
Anthony secretly exclaimed in his heart. This room can see Jack's personality and personality. Self-discipline and indifference are undoubtedly revealed in Chen Junhao.
The apartment is not big, but there is no shortage of anything that should be. The two of them sat down in the small living room, and Chen Junhao said, "What should I drink?"
Anthony said: "Do you have beer? I just drank a lot of tea and I want to have some beer now."
Chen Junhao opened the small refrigerator in the living room and took out two cans of beer. Anthony saw the fresh fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator and asked in surprise: "Do you cook yourself?"
"Yeah!" Chen Junhao nodded, "Pan!" He opened the beer and pushed it in front of Anthony, and opened a can for himself, smiling, "My craftsmanship is quite good, when will you try it?"
Anthony said half-believingly, "I don't know if you still have this ability, when must you taste it."
Chen Junhao couldn't see Anthony's skeptical expression. He smiled slightly and did not get too entangled on this issue. He smiled faintly and said, "It's not your style when I'm still wandering around the campus at this time. Is there anything tonight?"
Anthony was stunned and laughed in silence, "Can't I just take a walk on campus?"
"This is the dormitory area for international students, campus teaching areas, and your dormitory is at least twenty minutes away. Walking? You are so good today. Tell me, is there anything I can share your worries?"
After staring at Chen Junhao for a while, Anthony finally sighed in the gentle and peaceful eyes of the other party: "Are I a transparent person in front of you? I can't hide anything from you."
Chen Junhao took a sip of beer and smiled lightly, "Although yours is not written on your face, it's not much different. You have been thinking about it these days, and today I suddenly came to me again. What do you think?"
Anthony laughed and said, "So that's it!" It turned out that his behavior in the past few days was too abnormal, and Anthony felt relieved.
Chen Junhao looked at Anthony deeply and said, "Look at how you look now, the thoughts that bother you have been solved."
Anthony raised his head and poured half a bottle of beer, poured it on the sofa and let out a long breath, saying, "It's untied!"
Chen Junhao said: "It's really disappointing. I thought you were here to tell me your thoughts. So it's really a way."
Anthony laughed and said, "What's your mentality?"
"My friend's mentality!" Chen Junhao said, "I thought I was a friend you could entrust to your mind. Now it seems that it's a little short."
Anthony said, "Jack, you are my friend, don't doubt this."
Chen Junhao smiled lightly and said, "Don't be so serious, just a joke."
"No, I'm serious."
"Okay, I know." Chen Junhao raised his glass and said, "My friend, cheers!"
"cheers!"
The two of them poured the beer down to the sky. Chen Junhao pulled open the door of the small refrigerator next to him, took out two cans of beer, and threw one for Anthony.
"Is your concern related to me?"
"Hmm?" Anthony said, "How could he think so?"
"The newspaper reports on the Missouri ace dispute are full of heat. How could I not feel at all? Coach Smith watches the fire from the other side and adds to the fire. He intends to separate you and me from each other in the last three games, obviously he is dissatisfied with the tactics when you and me are on the court at the same time. The team is undercurrents, and as the captain of the team, you are naturally the most worried. I think this is probably your concern."
After staring at Chen Junhao deeply, Anthony said, "You really have a torch, that's right."
Chen Junhao opened the beer and said, "Actually, most of the people in the team have the same concerns, but everyone chose to remain silent because everyone believes that you and Coach Smith will solve everything safely. Now it seems that you are indeed a trustworthy captain."
Anthony said: "What about you? What do you think?"
"Like everyone, I can wait and see if the team's affairs will naturally be handled. At that time, you just need to follow the coach's orders."
"Do you don't care about the results at all?"
Chen Junhao smiled faintly: "It is false to say that you don't care, but I have learned one thing in the Chinese national team: each performs its own duties and do your duty. Since I can't influence the results, it's better to wait for the coach to announce it quietly. Before coming to the United States, our Chinese national team head coach honestly told me: Coach Smith is a very capable and personality coach. For me, the University of Missouri is the best choice. I trust Coach and Smith. Now aren't you here to tell me the result?"
Anthony shook his head and said, "No, I'm not here to tell you the result."
Chen Junhao nodded lightly.
"Aren't you surprised?"
"It's a bit disappointed, but not very surprised. Maybe the coach himself hasn't made the final decision yet."
Anthony said angrily: "Can't you have a little bit of an ordinary person's emotions? No matter what I say, you are just plain and uninspiring, and don't you have any expectations?"
Chen Junhao laughed and said, "Does it be a normal reaction to me if you want me to make a big fuss?" He pointed to the banner on the wall and said, "Do you know these four words?"
Anthony followed Chen Junhao's gaze and shook his head and said, "You know there are not many Chinese characters I know."
"I wrote to myself 'Ping Jing Zhiyuan'."
"Well, I understand the meaning of these four words. You wrote it yourself? It's quite beautiful. As far as I know, even if you can write such beautiful brush calligraphy in China, it's quite amazing. But why do you use these four words as your motto, and you don't feel excited at all."
Chen Junhao smiled lightly and said, "This issue will be discussed next time. I will explain it to you with these four words, so you can understand it."
Anthony said: "I understand, but I'm not satisfied."
Chen Junhao smiled faintly, raised the beer, "Cheers!" He blocked Anthony's mouth with the beer.
Anthony put down the beer and said, "Actually, the result has come out."
"Oh?" Chen Junhao was a little surprised this time, "What is it?"
"I give up the position of the tactical core."
Chen Junhao was really surprised this time, put down his beer and said in a serious manner: "You are saying: Have you given up the position of the core of the tactics?"
"That's right."
"The coach is really a big deal this time, and the whole team's tactics are all about to be subverted."
"That's right!" Anthony said, "Then do you think the team will take the core to develop tactics next?"
Chen Junhao sneered: "You are the test of me for such a simple question?"
"Tell me, look!"
"Now in the team, you, Mike and I have the ability to become the core of tacticality. Since you give up, you will naturally be excluded. The position of Mike's power forward is inherently lacking as a tactical core, and if there is no big difference between him and you as the core, you don't need to be replaced at all. The only thing left is me, and the next step of the team's tactical core should be myself!"
Anthony laughed and said, "Yes, you are really smart enough. Then can you guess what tactics the team will use next?"
Chen Junhao smiled faintly and said, "Since I'm asking me to guess, this tactic must be related to me, or I have seen it before. In the competition I have participated in, the only World Youth Championship is the World Youth Championship. The guards are the core, it seems that there is only my Chinese Youth Team. Coach Smith is learning from our Chinese Youth Team."
Anthony looked at Chen Junhao with his mouth wide open for a long time, and sighed for a long time: "You are simply amazing."
Chen Junhao smiled lightly and said, "It's not that I'm awesome. I've given me too many tips in your own words. Coach Smith is indeed quite amazing. He resolutely gave up the existing tactical system and used tactical theory of a second-rate country like Chinese basketball. In particular, Coach Geng's tactical theory itself has not been perfected. This courage and mind are really admirable."
Anthony said: "Chinese basketball is the second-rate level, and you and the straight coach are indeed the world-class level."
Chen Junhao asked in a serious manner, suddenly, "You came here to tell me the result?"
Anthony smiled bitterly and said, "Now you should be expressing your feelings about this result. Surprise? Or surprise? I don't seem to see it at all. Could it be that this result is also as expected?"
Chen Junhao said: "I don't have this kind of magical power yet. And this result is not good news for me. If you really understand this tactic, you will know that in Coach Geng's tactical theory, the so-called tactical core is just an enhanced version of the point guard. Coach Geng's original intention of designing this tactic was to exert the power of an excellent inside player like our Yao Ming. The defender is just a role player to assist. However, because the defender is a hub connecting the inside and outside lines and is responsible for feeding the inside players, he accidentally became the tactical core."
Anthony said: "According to what you say, I gave up the core position and caused you a lot of trouble?"
Chen Junhao smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe you don't believe it, but that's true. If there is a choice, I would rather the team maintain the current tactics. With the current lineup, we will have the chance to win the championship next year in a few months."
Anthony said: "But what I expect is not just a chance. I believe that coaching adjustments are the best way to improve the team, but I don't know that I am worried about you. Is the core position not attractive to you at all?"
"Of course not!" Chen Junhao replied, "As the core of tactics, I will have more initiative, breakthroughs, passes, and scores by myself. I have the greatest initiative on the court. Even if you are ace in the team, you must be allocated by me. Like the core of all other offensive tactics, I can sometimes overtake the whole team and have the right to attack alone. If you want to do something randomly, this position is really attractive. However," Chen Junhao smiled bitterly, "the biggest task of the core is to guide the team's strongest attack power, and in this regard is simply an enhanced version of the organization guards. By this standard, as the starting lineup of Missouri, as the core of tactics, I have actually only added the task of assisting. After analysis in this way, do you still think I should be happy with this core position?"
Anthony was stunned and laughed for a long time and said, "I didn't know if this core position is a chore for you. What are you going to do? Are you raising an objection to the coach?"
Chen Junhao smiled faintly: "As it, I will do it according to the coach's tactical arrangement. Although the core is a bit unreal, being a tactical core is an initiative in the game that I cannot refuse. Being able to master absolute initiative in the game and dominate the entire team. When the level reaches the level of you and me, this is the greatest desire beyond victory. Everyone does not like to live in the shadow of others, control the game and let the game develop according to their own wishes. This is the common feature of people like you and me. You are the trump card, and I am the tactical core. At present, this Missouri basketball team has no better strategy to assign you and me in this team. Coach Smith has indeed taken great pains to do it."
