Chapter 15 Christmas is coming (Part 1)
With the technical strength reaching the level of Carman and Davis, it is very difficult for anyone to technically overwhelm the opponent. The showdown between them is about who can maximize his strength and suppress his opponent's performance in the game. Carman chose the most direct tactic - psychological tactics. He aimed at Davis' irritable personality. Psychological tactics in basketball games are also a very important part of it. Carman's approach is understandable, and it can even be called quite clever - the most direct way to defeat his opponent is to drive the opponent out of the field.
Davis was forced to replace him, and he had lost control of the game. As a result, the balance of victory and loss in the game led by Davis and Carman has turned to Missouri, which is a big deal. The University of Texas could not turn around and overtake when the Trident was sitting alone. It is conceivable that when the Trident lineup appeared on the court, how many chances of victory would be there. Under normal circumstances, it is very slim. Of course, unexpected situations cannot be ruled out, but with the current performance of the Trident being so stable that it makes the scalp numb, the probability of this accident is too low.
Perhaps in the eyes of some viewers, Carman's previous performance seemed not outstanding, but this game was reversed because of him. The situation gradually fell into the control of Missouri. Then, the Texas inside without Davis became the back garden where Carman trampled casually. "Boom, boom" dunk; he took Chen Junhao and turned to shoot, double-teamed against the double team under the basket, and turned to shoot... Carman swept the opponent's inside line like a respectful cannon. Correspondingly, Chen Junhao's assist data was also rising rapidly. Generally speaking, as long as Chen Junhao can pass the ball in time, Carman can always turn his pass into a goal. Assistance becomes very simple at this time.
Texas University has repeatedly suspended the adjustment of its tactics. With the excellent cooperation of the players, it has resisted the defense with one step to death, but it can only barely maintain that it will not be too big apart at once.
In the second and third quarters, this tone continued. Missouri maintained a strong offensive all the way, and the score gap was widened step by step. When Davis returned to the court, Anthony also came back here, and the Trident always focused on Carman, who performed bravely as the offensive focus. With powerful players like Chen Junhao and Anthony, it is conceivable that Carman's performance was simply like fish in water.
At the end of the third quarter, the score gap had widened to twenty-five points. There was no suspense about the outcome in the NCAA game. In the fourth quarter, the two sides swapped their main lineups and replaced the substitute players to play for "exercise".
Missouri has another victory!
Victory, another victory. Missouri fans cheered and celebrated. The players on the court raised their hands and greeted the fans who came to help. Organized, calm and calm. Although the Missouri players smiled on their faces and were happy to win the game, it was difficult to see the ecstasy and uncontrollable scene. For Missouri today, winning games is common, and they are very used to victory.
In this game, Carman played for 30 minutes, scored 31 points and fifteen rebounds, completely overwhelming his opponent's 19 points and nine rebounds. Carman ended the showdown with a complete victory. Chen Junhao and Anthony also gained considerable assists. After this game, Carman officially stepped into the ranks of the top inside players in the United States. Both the media and professional teams looked at Missouri's white Optimus Prime and were increasingly paying attention.
...
In the third week after the start of the game, Missouri continued to win. Missouri scored 213 points in two games, and the Trident contributed 120.
In the two games in the fourth week, Missouri was still victorious, and the Trident's performance was still dazzling.
In the fifth week, there were still two victories.
...
As the year is about to end and Christmas is approaching, the American sports media suddenly looked back at the summary of the game over the past two months, "Missouri won 16 and lost 0, and it is still unbeaten. It is the only team in the United States that maintains a complete victory." It is the most eye-catching topic.
One game after another, we subdued our opponents with a score of over 100, and we were excited to attack, and we were thriving in a craze. We won one game after another. The magnificent Missouri!
Missouri is famous. Missouri is at its peak. At this time, it is perfect to describe Missouri as the hottest team in the United States. Men, women, young and old who like basketball in the United States know that NCAA has a team that keeps winning all the best, and all know that NCAA has a team that scores more than 100 points in every game. More and more people are paying attention to Missouri, and more and more fans support Missouri. Not only NCAA fans, many NBA fans have also turned their attention to NCAA and turned to Missouri games. There are wonderful basketballs that are not inferior to the NBA at all.
Two months ago, expert media predicted that Missouri basketball team would blew a whirlwind in the NCAA, and this prediction became a fact. The whirlwind swept across the United States and Asia and China on the other side of the earth. Photos of the Trident became the most frequent picture of major sports newspapers. Missouri's reports became the news that sports newspapers occupied the most pages. The media opened a column to discuss ways to curb the Trident, and TV sports programs predicted the future of Missouri. NBA teams targeted the players they were interested in, and estimated in their hearts how to recruit this genius under their command.
In China, the reputation of the young emperor surpasses all sports stars except Yao Ming, and his status among young men and women surpasses Yao Ming, becoming the number one idol star in the Chinese sports industry. With perfect appearance, perfect demeanor, perfect knowledge and qualifications, and the media spared no effort to promote, Chen Junhao is already the perfect idol of teenagers under the age of 25 in China, and the prince charming of women under the age of 30.
Of course, no matter how great a person is, he will not receive praise from everyone. There are praises and criticisms, and there are disdain in the mainstream. There are always voices of opposition outside of Missouri, Trident, Chen Junhao, and some newspapers, and some reporters play the role of slandering and hostile.
"Missouri bench depth is not difficult to make a difference in the playoffs", "Trident is favored by the referee", "How far can Missouri go if a corner is missing from the Trident?" "There has never been a yellow defender in history, and Chen Junhao can break this fate?" When victory is no longer enough to stimulate readers' reading expectations, the media must find new topics and new news to stimulate sales.
In China, arguments such as "Chen Junhao is a playboy", "a prominent family background has led to Chen Junhao's success", "Chen Junhao's classmates at Tsinghua University revealed that the young emperor is arrogant and arrogant" are also very marketable. Chen Junhao and Chen Yunyun's relationship has also been put on the table: "The childhood sweetheart's relationship", "Modern prince and Cinderella?" As the heroine of these news, Chen Yunyun, who stayed in China, has also become the target of the media and has received more and more attention. This attention brings not happiness, but for young girls like Chen Yunyun, enduring the eyes of others is a kind of pressure.
Christmas is coming. The school is on holiday and the basketball team has not yet been disbanded. Missouri has another game the night before Christmas Eve, playing against Kansas at home. This is the highlight of the NCAA that can be compared with the NBA's Christmas dinner.
What was Chen Junhao doing the night before the competition?
The computer is turned on, connected to the Internet, and opened the video. It is connected to Beijing, which is far away on the other side of the earth. On the screen is an image of Chen Yunyun.
Chen Yunyun's eyes on the screen were not aimed at the camera. But Chen Junhao knew that Yunyun was staring at herself. He himself was also staring at Chen Yunyun on the computer screen affectionately. The lovers who were far away from each other could only relieve their longing in this way.
On the earth, Chen Junhao stared at his lover's face affectionately, and couldn't help but stretch out his right hand to gently stroke his lover's face, but the tentacles were cold screen. His right hand suddenly fell down weakly and suddenly raised it again. Even though he knew that there was only a cold screen in front of him, his hand still raised it uncontrollably, carefully and tremblingly stroked the voice, appearance and smile of the jade man on the screen. "Yun Yun..." murmur. The young emperor in the newspaper always calmly faced him uncontrollably. At this time, deep nostalgia, deep longing, painful expectation emerged... all kinds of complex expressions, just like Chen Junhao's current mood: deep longing, deep nostalgia, uncontrollable love, and deep apology, mixed feelings.
"Yunyun, Yunyun...you have lost weight!" After a long murmur, he finally expressed a complete sentence.
On the other side of the earth, a lover's murmur suddenly made Chen Yunyun's beautiful eyes heat up, and tears flashed in her eyes. Her jade hand gently covered her small mouth, her pretty nose, and her pretty nose sobbed hard, so that the tears in her eyes tried not to let it flow out. "I caught a cold a few days ago." Chen Yunyun explained this. (Bajie never understands why women's tears are not covering their eyes but their mouths and noses)
On this side, the young man stared at the jade man without revealing his lover's unwise lies. He stared at his lover for a long time, and for a long time, he could only apologize with infinite apology: "I'm sorry, Yunyun!" What's sorry? Everything is indifferent.
"Jun... I miss you so much!" After this sentence, tears rolled in my eyes and could no longer suppress it.
The most cruel thing in the world is separation from life and death, and the difference between lovers is even more so. Although you can see the appearance of your lover with the help of the Internet every week, just like looking at plums to quench your thirst, it can never really replenish the water necessary for the body. The feeling of being able to see but not touch is even more painful.
"Don't cry!" Chen Junhao's fingers were uncontrollably slid gently from his lover's cheeks on the screen, as if he was trying hard to wipe away the tears from his lover's face. He said softly, "Yun Yun, don't cry, I will go back after tomorrow's game, and return to Beijing and return to your side."
Chen Yunyun quickly wiped away the tears from her face, sobbed her pretty nose, and said coquettishly: "I didn't cry. I just got confused just now." Such a clumsy excuse can also be said from a smart woman like Chen Yunyun. The saying that love can make smart people stupid is indeed a famous saying.
Chen Junhao laughed and said repeatedly: "That's right, that's right, why can we Yunyun cry? I'm wrong!"
"I hate you!" Chen Yunyun stamped her feet and showed her little daughter's appearance.
On this side, Chen Junhao couldn't help laughing, the haze on his face slightly weakened, tenderness arose in his heart, and said softly: "I will go back tomorrow, and I will be able to appear in front of you the day after tomorrow. Yunyun, wait for me to go back!"
"Um!"
"It's very cold in Beijing. Remember to add clothes when going out. I don't want to go back and see you sick."
"Um!"
"Sleep well and rest well, don't worry about the nonsense of the newspapers, and don't pay attention to what others say."
"Yeah, I know!"
Staring deeply at the face of your lover and staring for a long time, Chen Junhao finally apologized: "Yun Yun, I'm really sorry, because I put you in the current situation."
Chen Yunyun smiled gently: "Why are we sorry, aren't we lovers? Although we came a little earlier, I had such mental preparations."
"Having you is the greatest happiness in my life."
"Same is me!"
...
Chen Junhao's clock pointed at 10 o'clock in the evening, and the conversation between the two ended. Turn off the computer, and he always fell asleep on time at 10 o'clock today, but he was not sleepy. He leaned back on the bed, held the back of his head with both hands, his head full of beautiful figures of lovers, and his heart was filled with tenderness and sweetness.
On the other side, Chen Junyun held the photo of Chen Junhao at the head of the bed and was spinning around in the room with a brisk dance move, happily leaning back and falling on the bed. Lying on the bed, looking up at the gentle smile of the lover in the photo, suddenly felt a warm heart and gently leaning over, gently
"The day after tomorrow, I'm going to come back!" This sentence gave Chen Yunyun great motivation and enthusiasm. The haze was wiped out, and now there was only joy and expectation in her heart.
"Will the room be too dirty? Do you want to clean it?" Chen Yunyun looked around, and the room was still the same as Chen Junhao left that day, but because no one had lived there for a long time, there was a layer of dust.
"Then clean it up."
The light music sounded, and Chen Yunyun's beautiful figure held a rag, dragged a mop and hummed the sound in the room. The curtains were opened, allowing the sun to shine through the window.
Half an hour later, the room was spotless, clean and bright. Chen Yunyun's mood was like this room, full of sunshine and happiness.
