Basketball glory

Seoul, Korea

Having just finished filming an endorsement commercial, the T-ara team rushed back to their residence from the Sejong Center for the Performing Arts to rest. They have a reality show tomorrow, a press conference and a fan meeting to warm up for the launch of the new single the day after tomorrow.

The full schedule makes artists feel like they are about to collapse.

Eun-jeong and Ji-yeon were both talking quietly about the script for tomorrow's reality show. Hyo-min was fast asleep in the passenger seat, while Bao-lam and So-yeon were in the last row, lying quietly on the small bed to regain their energy.

Soyan closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep, but her uneven breathing proved that she was actually just resting her mind.

Baolan looked at Soyan, who was less than 20 centimeters away, and couldn't keep her eyes away. Her petite and exquisite body was curled up like a frightened kitten. Her white tutu was a bit messy, and her snow-white calves were looming at the hem of the skirt.

, because the space of the RV is very small, I have to curl up, blocking the infinite scenery.

However, what surprised Bao Lan the most was Suyan's skin. Her eyes were closed tightly, her snowy face was peaceful, and her fleshy little face had tender, white and smooth skin, moist like cream. You must know that this was without makeup.

, not only wearing thick stage makeup, but even looking at it from such a close distance, it was almost flawless. Baolan admitted that she was really surprised.

Although they are both good sisters, there are not many opportunities to feel each other's breath when they are so close. Baolan saw the undetectable beads of sweat on Soyan's forehead and felt extremely complicated. The car was driving

The air conditioner was so stressful that she even sweated. So Yan felt so insecure.

Baolan gently wiped the sweat off her forehead, but she didn't expect that she suddenly opened her eyes. For a moment, her pupils shrank like a frightened hare. After seeing clearly that it was Baolan, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Soyan whispered: "I'm sorry, I scared you."

Baolan shook her head, smiled gracefully, and then said softly to her lips: "Onie has something on his mind. What are you afraid of? You can't sleep well."

Su Yan was stunned for a second, then came back to her senses, and then realized that she had just entered a state of light sleep. Seeing Bao Lan's worried eyes, she hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, it's okay. Ernie is just a little tired.

Yes, my schedule is too full recently, and I stay up late every day."

Baolan pouted when she heard this, and said with some distress: "Onie, you have to take care of yourself. We will help you share the burden. If you have anything, just tell us."

Bao Lan knew in her heart that Su Yan would not say anything if something difficult happened. She had been the captain of the team for several years and was used to shouldering everything by herself. Bao Lan was too familiar with her, but she couldn't say anything. Su Yan's character was

In this way, Baolan had already figured it out clearly after having advised him many times before.

In front of the president, she would not give in, helping her sisters to get the best resources. In front of the manager, she tried to reduce the burden on the team and let everyone have some personal time. So Yeon never said these things, what everyone saw was just

Before going to bed, Suyan cheerfully tells jokes to everyone, and on her days off, she enthusiastically cooks and makes desserts for everyone to eat.

Suyan turned sideways, stretched out her little hand to touch Baolan's head, and said kindly: "Don't worry, I know how to adjust myself. We are the Crown Group that cannot be defeated. Come on, come on, fight!"

Seeing So Yan's funny look, Bao Lan couldn't help but laugh. Her cute expression was very cute. She gave So Yan's chubby little face a bite and felt relieved.

"By the way, is President Jin still pestering you?" Baolan suddenly remembered and asked casually.

Little did she know that with this unintentional remark, Suyan's expression changed, and her delicate little face was filled with tears.

He was worried, but in a blink of an eye, he changed to the careless expression he had just before and said: "Just take it one step at a time, there is nothing you can do. Anyway, I just don't like him. You Su Yan, Ouni, don't have such vision."

Difference."

"Representative Quan seems to be interested in you, and Unnie doesn't like this person either. I dislike him very much." Seeing her raising this topic, Baolan quickly said what she had wanted to say for a long time.

"Hehe, are you jealous that Ernie has so many suitors?"

When Bao Lan heard this, she immediately turned around. Because she was young, although she had many fans, no artist or anyone had ever confessed her feelings to her, which gradually became a trace of dissatisfaction in her heart.

Baolan said angrily: "Humph, just poke my pain point. If you have any trouble, remember to contact An Ran. I think he is really reliable."

Soyan nodded, did not answer, closed her eyes and continued to rest, but her heart could no longer calm down.

Is it really okay to bother him all the time like this?

She stood up for her when they first met, he helped her out during a concert with thousands of people, and she hugged him for the first time as a thank you.

Scenes of scenes flashed through So Yan's mind, stirring up waves one after another.

…

Memphis, United States

After a miserable night's stay in the hotel, An Ran received a call from Winnie the next morning. The house to rent had been decided. It was not far from the University of Memphis and the transportation was convenient, but it was relatively far from the arena.

After Anron settled her luggage, she went straight to the airport. Yesterday, the checked baggage was delayed for more than ten hours due to plane problems. It landed early this morning. She was afraid that it would have any adverse reactions. Anron was extremely nervous. After all, she had just arrived a while ago.

Picked up from the pet hospital.

Seeing Diandian limping towards him with cat steps, his expression of coming to pick him up immediately made An Ran laugh. He is indeed a cat who never forgets his image, even if he is injured, he must be so graceful.

After settling down, An Ran went straight to FedEx Arena. Winnie said that someone would receive him today, complete the physical examination for joining the team, and then undergo the first comprehensive examination by the Grizzlies team doctor.

An Ran is absolutely not afraid of these things. By maintaining good living habits, An Ran does not even have any sub-health diseases. At this time, he has just finished the Olympics and is at the peak of his body. He has not taken many vacations, so there is no decline in his condition.

An Ran had a hunch that the physical test data this time would definitely be better than those in the pre-draft training, or even better than one and a half stars.

However, after arriving at the arena, An Ran was surprised by the lively scene in front of him. Didn't he agree to take a physical test? Why was someone playing a game in the arena?

From the first sight, it seemed that a team of college players were playing a match with a group of high school students. There were not many people on the sidelines, only a dozen girls and a dozen boys watching, but the atmosphere did not diminish at all, and it was surprisingly lively.

, it’s very atmospheric to watch.

This is not as simple as a few people playing on the court during a domestic game, while others sit and watch below, and then give a bottle of water to the boy you love during the break.

None of the twenty or thirty people watching below were sitting down. Although they had nothing in their hands, they were twisting their bodies left and right and shouting loudly, as if they were the protagonists on the court.

Influenced by them, the ten people on the court fought even harder, began to commit frequent fouls, and broke through to the basket much more than floating outside.

An Ran was stunned as he watched this scene. He almost thought that he had gone to the wrong set, and quickly wanted to exit to see if he had gone to the wrong arena. But then he thought about it, the entire state of Tennessee

How could there be an arena more magnificent than this one?

So An Ran, who didn't see the Grizzlies management, chose a seat and watched the game with great interest.

The one with the red jersey seems to be a basketball club from some university, while the other party is wearing a white jersey. Judging from their tone and cooperation, it must be a high school team.

The strength of the college students and this team of high school students is almost the same. An Ran scanned a few rounds and roughly figured out the strength of the two sides. However, the small forward of this basketball club is indeed exceptionally strong, very sharp in defense and offense, and has better physical fitness.

He's pretty good, he looks far better than the players on the court.

Precisely because of his presence, the high school team's forward line already had two men carrying four fouls, and its defensive actions gradually became smaller. Just like a fuse, because the small forward could not be restricted, the high school team saw the score getting bigger and bigger.

But there was no way.

An Ran took the time to take a look at this sturdy small forward from the university team. He was about two meters tall, weighed 220 pounds, and his short hair revealed a black scalp. It was obvious at a glance that this was a tough guy.

And his playing style is just like his appearance, very fierce and full of power. However, An Ran observed for a while and found that although he played violently, he didn't make many small moves and his defense was very clean. He relied on his strong body and flexible movements to achieve this.

Scoring and defense.

"Qiao, what are you doing? Are you shopping? Go up and guard him. You defensive old lady can easily break through." The high school team coach shouted angrily at a big man on the field.

The two small forwards have already committed four fouls, so they have no choice but to let the fourth position named Joe defend. However, after two rounds, it is obvious that his speed is seriously unable to keep up with the opposite small forward. His physical fitness is not as good as that of the opposite small forward.

He got on, but couldn't keep up with the speed. The player named Joe was also helpless.

"I can't guard against him, it's too fast!"

The small forward on the opposite side took the ball and took a step forward. He shook Joe off without giving him a chance to interfere with his body, and just clicked and shot.

Joe finally asked the coach for help. How could he go up if he couldn't guard against it?

The coach of the high school team called a timeout and was beaten 6-0. If he hadn't called a timeout, the score would have been 20 points.

Before the third quarter was over, the score had already reached 39 to 51, which made the students in the high school department, who pride themselves on how good they are at basketball, blush.

After listening to it for so long, An Ran finally figured it out. It turned out that this was a friendly match between the University of Memphis basketball club and the high school team affiliated with the university.

These students on the affiliated high school team are almost all special basketball recruits. In the future, these students will also become substitute players for the school team after they enter college. It can be said that they are the future of the University of Memphis team.

The basketball club is a club organization at the University of Memphis. It is not an official school team, but a club where a group of basketball enthusiasts gather to discuss basketball privately.

The University of Memphis is a public research university, ranked below 100 in the United States, and its sports performance is not worth mentioning. However, just such a game made An Ran very excited.

The excitement of the game is no less than that of the Chinese CUBA League. Except for the shooting level, it can be said that the physical fitness is even better.

When An Ran arrived in Memphis for the first time, he didn't expect that a group of college basketball enthusiasts and high school sports students could be so capable, and they were just a bunch of unknown kids.

If he were a well-known basketball high school student in the United States, how strong would he be?

An Ran was looking excited from the audience, but he didn't know that a pair of eyes had been fixed on him.
