"No problem." Tang Tian nodded. The cake made by Olson really tasted very good. He liked it very much. It would be difficult to get the tickets with Walker.

"Then let's just say that." Olson smiled and stretched out his little finger, shaking in front of his eyes.

Tang Tian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he wanted to make an agreement.

He also stretched out his hand and hooked his little finger. The two of them had reached an agreement.

"Tang, press conference." At this time, Napier went to the player's passage and shouted at him.

"Then I won't give you it." Tang Tian replied to Napier, turned to Olson and said.

"It's okay, you're busy, I'm very happy today." Olson said with a smile.

Tang Tian nodded with a smile, and then trotted back to the locker room.

After taking a shower, Tang Tian and Walker attended the press conference with Kahon.

Walker made 9 of 22 shots in this game, scoring the team's highest 24 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists. Tang Tian made 5 of 8 three-pointers, and made all three free throws to score 18 points, 5 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks. The two were the biggest contributors to Kang Da's win tonight.

Because of winning the game, the atmosphere at the press conference was relaxed and there was laughter and joy.

"Tang, I found out that you ate cake on the bench after you got out. I was very curious, were you hungry at that time?" In the relaxed atmosphere, a reporter asked about eating cakes during the game.

"Yes." Tang Tian didn't expect the reporter to ask this and nodded with a smile.

"It seems that the cake was not bought temporarily, but was placed under the bench before?" The reporter looked at it carefully and couldn't help asking.

"Yes, I was going to eat again after the competition, but I was indeed hungry at that time." Tang Tian replied.

His answer immediately attracted laughter from the reporters below, and it was rare to say so honestly.

"The team will play against the University of North Carolina in the next game. We know that Harrison Barnes of North Carolina is a very outstanding player and leader. Kemba, are you confident of defeating him and leading the team to win?" After asking the relaxed question, the reporter continued to ask the serious one.

"Well... I'll leave it to Don to defeat him." Walker thought for a while and said.

His answer attracted a surprise look from the reporter, which was a bit inconsistent with Walker's usual style of speaking.

"After all, he has beaten Derek Williams in this game," Walker continued.

The reporters nodded at the same time after hearing this.

Williams showed great power in the first half and scored 18 points in the first half, but in the second half, only 11 shots were made under Tang Tian's defense, and his performance was dismal. If nothing unexpected happened in the next game, Tang Tian would defend Barnes. If he really wanted to talk about defeat, it was indeed what Tang Tian had to do.

"Tang, do you have confidence?" The reporter turned his gaze to Tang Tian.

"Of course, I have to defeat him." Tang Tian replied without hesitation. Barnes is the core of North Carolina. If Kangda wants to win, he must defend Barnes.

"He can do it." Kahon said affirmatively at this time. He could not tell the media what happened in the midfield, but he now had absolute trust in Tang Tian.

The reporters looked at Kahon in surprise. This old handsome man rarely speaks so affirmatively in front of the media.

"Oh, I forgot to say that I bought the cake, but I finished it in the locker room during the intermission." But before they could think too much, Walker's words caused them to laugh again. The atmosphere instantly became extremely relaxed when the press conference became serious.

...

At the University of North Carolina hundreds of miles away, North Carolina players watched the full broadcast of the game at the home stadium.

"Harrison, I didn't expect we really met that guy." After the game, the players dispersed one after another. Taylor Zeller and Barnes walked out side by side, and said with a smile as they walked.

When he was playing a shooting game in New Haven, he wanted to go up and say hello to Tang Tian but was stopped by Barnes. At that time, Barnes said that he would always meet him, but he didn't expect that he really hit the nail on the head.

"It's not easy to play in the next game." Barnes nodded and said. After watching the game, he knew that the end of the game would be a fierce battle.

"Are you confident of defeating Don?" Zeller asked.

Barnes shook his head. Although he was only in the first grade, he was far precocious than his peers because he grew up in a single-parent family and was young. If Derek Williams had such a difficult fight, he knew that it would not be easy for him.

"But I have to beat him." He stopped and continued, looking up at the five championship flags hanging over the stadium as he spoke.

...

Early the next morning, after the victory carnival, Continental's team members took a plane to Charlotte, the largest city in North Carolina.

The Conda and North Carolina will be played in two days in the Bank of America Stadium, the largest stadium in Charlotte.

This 19-year-old stadium is home to the NFL (National Football League) North Carolina Panthers, with a capacity of up to 74,000 people. The core area of ​​the stadium has been opened for this game and can also accommodate more than 50,000 people to watch the game at the same time.

"North Carolina's style of play has not changed much from the past. Their core tactic is to grab the frontcourt rebounds and seek a second offensive opportunity, so protecting the defensive rebounds will be the core part of our next game. Alex, Art, Taylor, you must be mentally prepared, whether it is a blocker or a snatch..."

After arriving in Charlotte, Kahon did not rush to arrange the team for competition training, but instead pulled the team members to start tactical analysis in the training hall.

In the last game against Arizona, Tang Tian’s tactical suggestions directly changed the situation in the second half of the two sides, which made him realize that the role of tactics is particularly important when fighting against strong teams.

After the tactical analysis was completed, he asked Oli to take other team members to do basic training first, and then asked Tang Tian and himself to go back to the office alone.

Oli looked at the two people leaving with a bit of a complicated mood, but in the end he just shook his head.

Tang Tian’s tactical suggestions in the last game show that he is indeed very talented in coaching, and he really can’t compare with this.

An 18-year-old boy with this talent should be envious and jealous, but when he remembered Kahon's previous advice to him, he should not be so narrow-minded as a coach, and he should learn more about how to get along with the team members.

"Do you have any good tactical suggestions for the next game?" When he arrived at the coach's office, Kahon asked Tang Tian directly.

Tang Tian didn't know what Kahong was looking for him at first, and when he heard him ask, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Did Ka Hong really treat him as an assistant coach?
