40. You can feel safe when you have the ball in your hand

“X…X…X…X…”

At three o'clock in the afternoon, when Zhang Hao and Bibi followed Garnett into the stadium, they were shocked by the enthusiastic cheers of the fans on the scene.

After a closer look... at least one-third of the fans have the same complexion as his skin!

In addition, this is a city in California, some of the students support other high school students, but most of them still support "their own people".

However, Corey Benjamin is obviously considered his own person, but he is ignored...

This scene still scared Zhang Hao. He never expected that the fans would be so enthusiastic about him.

He also pays attention to news, but mainly focuses on media at all levels in the United States, because his goal is to enter the NCAA. When he rests every day, he will look for sports news at all levels in the United States to see if there is any report of his own, and occasionally he can see one.

He didn't notice that in California, he already had a considerable reputation, even better than Pierce.

This is related to Adidas' strategy. There are too many Chinese, Chinese, Asian, and Asian people in California, so they can use this to expand the market. And they just praised Zhang Hao, mainly because they think Zhang Hao is worthy of it. This is a conclusion drawn through the training camp observation, and then they implemented it without hesitation.

Listening to these cheers, Zhang Hao felt his heartbeat was accelerating - he liked this feeling very much!

The scene became Zhang Hao's home court, and each high school student had different ideas.

Some are envious, some are jealous, and some are Garnett who knows the reason clearly, that is, they know that this is actually the home court of California high school students.

The most peculiar thing is a genius who is unwilling to be named.

"That bastard is actually more popular than me!"

Kobe's thinking is particularly clear. He always likes to compare his weakest aspects with others. For example, he has such comprehensive skills, but he likes to compare with Zhang Hao and Hamilton compared to Central Investment. Central Investment finally caught up with Hamilton, and there is another super central pitcher like Zhang Hao who has a qualitative gap with all other high school students in Central Investment. So he feels that his Central Investment is garbage and needs to be practiced harder.

Originally, he didn't care about popularity or anything, but now he saw Zhang Hao, who was also a high school student, enjoying the cheers of thousands of people, and began to envy and hate him again.

Kobe's idea is very simple - "I must win! These cheers will become mine!"

It is the first time for most high school students present to watch the game. Although some of the high school students participating in the Adidas Training Camp this time have participated in the McDonald's All-Stars, only 18 people passed the trial competition that time, and there were only a dozen people in the three-point competition and the dunk competition. Most of them were eliminated during the training camp at Adidas Training Camp. For example, Bibi was eliminated in the McDonald's All-Star Game selection competition before.

Envy, after being jealous of the cheers Zhang Hao received, the players were more excited!

With so many fans watching the game, it feels so different.

Some players like to play under the gaze of attention, such as future Wizards No. 1 pick John Wall, who will not have the motivation to play without national live broadcasts.

Before the game started, the host introduced 18 participating players and gave a detailed introduction to their achievements in high school, mainly in the 1994-95 season.

As Zhang Hao expected, although they had not compared their performance in high school before, and no one would be stupid enough to compare their performance in the same group of talented high school students, all the talented high school students present either had good data or good grades, with good grades and good data. Even Cory Benjamin performed well in high school. At the age of 15, he represented the United States in the World Youth Basketball Championships under the age of 19, and was the youngest player of the American team.

After the players appeared one by one, the players of the two teams gathered together to make the final discussion before the game.

In a group of players from various teams, the role of coaches is more about providing players with solutions to problems during team training, helping players to get better in running-in. At the game stage, the role of coaches is far less than that of the school team coach. Even if the players under his command are stronger, the coaches in such games actually have little understanding of how players play on the court, and they can even be said to have no understanding of them.

In this regard, Bibi and Garnett are very clear about the two core cores, so Garnett, a team leader with extremely high ball quotient and strong offensive ability, led his teammates to have a final discussion.

The specifications of this game are quite professional, with technical stations, cameras of several cameras, and three referees. The rules are the rules of NCAA, and the configuration is the same.

At 3:28 pm, the two teams started!

Team B, Beeby, Corey Benjamin, Zhang Hao, Rahim and Garnett made their starting lineup.

Team A, Marbury, Hamilton, Kobe, Jamison, and Odom made their starting lineup.

Zhang Hao came to the middle line and stood with Kobe. He felt that his excitement was no less than that of the McDonald's slam dunk contest that he had played against Carter before.

At 3:30 pm, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air. Garnett relied on his super bounce to win the jump ball from Odom's head. The game started and Team B attacked first!

The 35-second offensive time began, Bibi was pressing the rhythm and crossed the half before the 10-second violation. This was their strategy, pushing down the speed and hitting slowly.

When Bibi arrived at the frontcourt, Kobe defended and wanted to fight Bibi alone! The strongest person on all the outside lines on the opposite side was Bibi.

But Bibi is much calmer than Kobe. He doesn't plan to compete with Ke in this game at any time. He chooses to protect the ball, wait for that guy to run, and at the same time, and has two choices.

On the other side, Zhang Hao was chased by Hamilton very tightly, and his running position was like a headless fly...

Although Zhang Hao has been practicing running positions in the past two years in high school, he mainly practices how to use his explosive speed and excellent physical strength to force his opponents. When he met Hamilton, who was stronger than him in this aspect, Zhang Hao had no choice. Moreover, there was a difference in training and competition. Moreover, he only practiced for more than two days, and when he encountered this situation on the court, Zhang Hao really couldn't get rid of Hamilton.

However, after judging Zhang Hao's running route, Garnett seized the opportunity and took the initiative to help Zhang Hao block Hamilton.

Bibi, who had been observing the situation on the field, keenly judged Garnett's intentions and the movement of the players on the field next, and used his skillful ball control to accelerate and break through to the left, allowing Kobe to move, and then seized the opportunity to get the ball. Zhang Hao just took the pick-and-roll to go out to the free throw line and turned around. Bibi's passer came to the ball!

Zhang Hao, who was originally worried about his unfavorable running position, felt safe immediately after receiving the ball. After receiving the ball, he threw the ball without hesitation when Jamison rushed over.

Hit!

The first attack at the beginning of the game made those scouts’ eyes lit up!

Zhang Haoben is also one of their observation objects. Many universities and NBA teams have become interested in this Chinese high school student who suddenly appeared in the past three weeks and has gained a certain reputation throughout the United States.

But Zhang Hao's running position after he came on the court disappointed those scouts - as a pitcher, his running position was so poor.

But Garnett's pick-and-roll timing without the ball, and his physical strength is very excellent.

Bibi's offense was average, but when Garnett used an offense to sort out the offense with an unball pick-and-roll, Bibi seized the opportunity very well.

There is also Corey Benjamin's weak side run, Rahim's timely cut...all are very good.
Chapter completed!
