"Chu, today is the California Derby!”
America, California, Los Angeles.
In the team locker room of the famous Los Angeles Coliseum.
Zach Lavin tightened his shoelaces as he explained to Chu Han beside him,""I never dreamed that I would represent UCLA and fight against USC!”
As a native of Los Angeles.
Ever since Lavin was very young, the California Derby was a very prestigious existence in his memory.
He once felt that the California Derby was out of reach and that he could not be a part of it.
He never thought that…
Now, he had become a participant in the California Derby.
And he was representing UCLA!
"Calm down, Zach."
Chu Han, on the other hand, was calm.”
Compared to Lavin, Chu Han was completely indifferent to the so-called derby.
Chu Han had very little memory of the University of Southern California.
If he remembered correctly, USC was once the alma mater of OJ Mayo, Nick Yang, DeRozan, and Vucevic.
However, since Vucevic, there had been no All-Star NBA player in Southern California.
It could be said that fame was greater than strength.
A team of this level, even with the California derby gimmick, was nothing to Chu Han.
"Lads, you have to give me 120 points today!”
Just as Lavin was talking to Chu Han, UCLA's head coach, Ben Herland, walked in with a clap of his hands."I won't allow you to lose today's California Derby!”
"I won't allow this to happen either.”
Behind Coach Ben Herland.
Kareem walked into the locker room and smiled at the UCLA players.""UCLA is the only king of California. Southern California will always be our defeated opponent!”
Jabbar's words were impassioned.
But the UCLA players in the locker room completely ignored what he said.
"It's Sky Hook Jabbar!"
The young players, led by Shabbas Mahmud, jumped up from their seats.
Kyle Anderson's reaction was half a beat slower, but the surprise on his face definitely kept up with the beat.
Norman Powell, who was in his second year, was surprised but also puzzled.
Why didn't he see Tian Gou watch the California Derby last year?
However, this was not a problem!
Who cared about the details when they could see a basketball legend like Kareem!
However, Tian Gou was just giving these youngsters a high-five. His gaze was fixed on Chu Han.
As if he had noticed Jabbar's gaze, Chu Han also stood up and hugged him.
"Good performance, young man."
Tian Gou patted Chu Han's back.”
"Leave it to me."
"There is only one winner in the California Derby," Chu Han replied confidently.”
"I like that, child."
Kareem laughed.
There was only one winner in the California Derby.
That was UCLA!
"I'm waiting for the moment you win the game.”
Kareem said goodbye to the UCLA lads for the time being, then chatted with Coach Ben Herland for a while before turning around and walking out of the locker room.
Today, Tian Gou was just a spectator. He did not want to stay in the locker room for too long.
When Kareem walked out of the locker room and into the stadium.
The spotlight instantly focused on the first person in NCAA history, the legendary figure of the NBA's Mount Rushmore.
The nearly 20,000 audience members also gave the most enthusiastic applause and cheers for this legend in unison.
Kareem waved to the fans and found his seat.
He knew very well that he was not the main character of today's competition.
The group of children on the field were.
"As we all know, the annual California Derby is a favorite event for Los Angeles fans.”
In the pre-match warm-up segment, the ESPM commentator on the sidelines began to liven up the atmosphere.
"There are a lot of UCLA fans here, as well as a lot of USC supporters!”
As soon as the shoutcaster finished speaking, the crowd instantly erupted with cheers from UCLA and USC.
The fans of the two rival teams attacked each other with their own sound waves and greeted each other in a friendly manner.
"Today, we also saw the legend of UCLA, Kareem Jabbar.”
"Everyone knows that he didn't come just for the California Derby.”
"Tian Gou personally came to the scene to watch Chu Han's competition!”
The shoutcaster explained floor by floor and finally mentioned Spicy Man's name.
Chu Han!
UCLA's Chinese supernova.
The man who beat up Kyrie Irving on the jungle field.
He used his perfect performance in the first nine games of the PAC-12 league to become the new favorite of UCLA fans.
Today was the day he conquered California!
"We'll think of a way to deal with that troublesome kid, that young man called Chu Han.”
Before the game, USC's head coach, Peter Smith, looked serious.""I know it's difficult, but my players will do their best to achieve it.”
Just like Coach Mike Hopkins predicted after the University of Washington's first defeat.
The current Chu Han was already a big headache for the coaching staff of the other PAC-12 teams.
As the head coach of USC, Peter Smith had not thought of a good way to restrain Chu Han after so many days.
However, the California Derby could not be lost.
He could only brace himself and come!
During the pre-match warm-up, the UCLA players 'nervousness was seen by Coach Ben Herland.
They were all a group of young players, and a team legend like Kareem Jabbar sat on the sidelines.
It was normal for the players to be nervous.
Of course, this did not include Chu Han.
After Chu Han observed the lineup of USC today, he realized that there was no one worthy of his name.
It was instantly tasteless.
Nervous?
The ones who should be nervous should be the Southern California players who were about to defend against him!
"Guys, relax."
Before the game began, Coach Ben Herland gathered the players around him.""Don't think too much, and don't feel too much pressure.”
" If you're really so nervous on the field that you don't know what to do, then I'll give you a solution..."
Coach Ben Herland drew a big number 7 on the tactical board.
"At that time, pass the damn basketball to Chu Han!”
