"Dunn, we've played so many games along the way, but we've only let you play as a substitute because you're the secret weapon of our Davidson Wildcats. In other words, we might have buried your talent and performance.”
Today was the day of the basketball match between the Davidson basketball team and the Orlando basketball team.
On the bluestone path of Davidson College, the old coach, Mike, spoke sincerely and apologetically.
Tang Ziwen waved his hand indifferently.
"Coach Mike, you already said that I'm a secret weapon. Of course I have to be arranged as a secret weapon!”
"The match against Orlando in the afternoon is an opportunity!”
"Chance?" Tang Ziwen asked.
"That's right!" McKillop said solemnly,""Blake Griffin. He's a hot pick in the 2009 draft. Many NBA teams value him very much. He can average 24.5 points and 15 rebounded per game!”
"I know he is very strong, but I am also confident!”
Maybe.
In terms of technique, he was not as strong as Blake Griffin!
However, inside the paint, he was confident that he could snatch the rebound from Griffin and stop him from attacking!
At most, he would just go all out.
"As long as you defeat him, completely suppress him, stop his attacks, and slam dunk over his head, you can definitely become famous!”
"I understand what the coach means!"
Tang Ziwen grinned, and a trace of fighting spirit burst out of his eyes.
"I can't even imagine the amount of attention this afternoon's game will garner, Dunn. As long as you can defeat Griffin, the media's attention in the United States will be on you.”
"Coach, I will do my best!"
To be honest, Tang Ziwen was also a little tempted.
It seemed like…
He had to work hard in the afternoon!
.......
In the afternoon, Tang Ziwen, Stephen Curry, Coach Mike, and the others arrived in Oklahoman early.
The venue for the game was the Thunder's home stadium, Ford Center.
The scene was packed with people.
All kinds of reporters and scouts gathered in the stadium.
"Oh yeah, S, the Swift Speed team from the University of Oklahoman is here!!”
When Blake Griffin and all the members of the Seraphic Speed team came on stage, the huge ball erupted with cheers and shouts.
"Blake Griffin, with his strong muscles and explosive physical fitness, has the perfect strength to play in the NBA!”
The commentator responsible for this match was a well-known commentator from the NCAA, Chris Ewen!
" Stephen Curry from the Davidson Wildcats of North Caroline, 2 per game."
When the commentator reached Stephen Curry, the cheers and growls in the stadium dropped significantly.
After all, this was the home game of Oklahoman.
" It's so hard to gain weight!" Tang Ziwen ate snacks and fries as he slowly walked to the substitutes 'bench, looking very lazy.
Those with discerning eyes looked.
Sigh, this was definitely a rookie reserve player.
After all, Tang Ziwen was over 200 centimeters tall.
However, in the NCAA, as well as in the basketball holy land of the United States, it was too ordinary.
When the time was up, the players from both teams walked onto the field to warm up amidst the cheers.
"Boom!"
After Blake Griffin received the pass from his team member, his explosive physical fitness could be seen at a glance. It was as if there was a spring under his feet. He flew in the air, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and then ruthlessly poured it into the basket.
At the scene, waves of low roars were heard again.
Chris, the commentator, bragged crazily about Blake Griffin again.
Even though a few years later, when people looked back at the 2009 draft competition, Stephen Curry and James Harden had created far more value for the team than Blake Griffin.
But now it was.
Year 2009.
No matter who it was.
He would choose Griffin, not Stephen Curry or James Harden!
"Blake, today's focus is on you and Stephen Curry. Are you confident in defeating him?”
There was no doubt that the reporters and media had conducted some interviews with the core players of both teams before the game.
"As you can see, they have a tall Asian player on their team, and his physical ability seems to be very good.”
From the outside, Tang Ziwen's muscular body was even more explosive than Blake Griffin's.
Blake Griffin turned his head, glanced at Tang Ziwen, and then smiled confidently."He does look strong, but you have to understand that this is the NCAA. Not every tall Asian player is Yao.”
Before the game, the assistant manager of Orlando had already given him the information.
Tang Ziwen's advantage was that he was taller than him and was a substitute in every game.
He did not need to worry at all. A tall player from Asia could pose any threat to him.
After the reporters 'interview, the battle began.
McKillop originally wanted Tang Ziwen to be the starter. After all, rebounding was very important, and the opponent had Griffin, who was physically strong.
However, Tang Ziwen still sat quietly on the substitutes 'bench. He held a bag of snacks in his hand and chewed on potato chips without any nervousness.
"Dunn, why do you seem to have lost your fighting spirit again?”McKillop asked.
"No rush, let Stephen play for a while!" Tang Ziwen smiled.”
"Okay, but if Loew can't get the rebound, you'll play.”
"No problem!"
Tang Ziwen's absence made many Asian viewers and Chinese students feel slightly regretful.
"Looks like he's really just a substitute.”
"Being tall doesn't mean anything!”
"I have waited for nothing…"
