The first time, the second time.

Chapter 4 The Heat General Manager’s Real Fragrance

“We beat the boss!!”

Assistant coach Jim was venting his emotions like crazy, and said in a slightly trembling voice:

“To hell with the sweet sixteen… we have the strength to win the championship, how could we fall in the sixteen!”

After the extreme emotions, he looked at Herb Sendek beside him with a little sob.

“Huh~”

After a long cry, Herb Sendek finally let go of his anxious heart.

“Yeah, Jim, we’re in the quarterfinals!”

Herb Sendek patted Jim’s back and hugged him in his arms.

Herb Sendek, with a wisp of white hair on his temples, looked at the score on the big screen above with some emotion.

94:89!

As the No. 9 seed, the North Carolina Wolf Pack started the crazy March. Before the game, it was predicted that they were not favored by major mainstream sports media.

Now they have overcome the hurdle of the quarterfinals and successfully entered the quarterfinals.

Although, the process of this game was quite tortuous.

···

In the stands not far behind the coaching seats.

The North Carolina fans also started the carnival under the lonely backs of the California Golden Bears fans.

“The quarterfinals, here we come! The overtime process is more thrilling than my extreme roller coaster ride.”

“Compared to winning this game, what is more exciting is that we found Wang Song, a treasure player. With him on the court, I feel very safe. He is really stable.”

“He is only a freshman. He still has a lot of room to play on the NCAA stage.”

“I think the NCAA can’t accommodate players of this style. He should go to the NBA, which is his stage.”

As soon as this view came out, many fans expressed some regret, but some people were determined to look forward.

“Who cares about him? Let’s win a championship in North Carolina first, and it would be best if we can get an MOP. This will greatly improve his draft prospects.”

“Yes, the opponent in the next game is the No. 1 seed in our Eastern Conference. The Oklahoma Sooners have no opponents in the East so far. In the first game, they directly crushed the South Carolina Bulldogs with a 20-point sweep.”

This cold water did not affect the enthusiasm of the Wolf Pack fans, and they still maintained the carnival of victory.

······

Among the crowd celebrating in the stands, a black figure seemed out of place.

In such a noisy environment, he was not even willing to move outside, but sat there and made a phone call.

“Hello!”

“Hello!”

“Can you hear me, boss?”

······

There was a brief silence on the other side, and about ten seconds later, a roar of cursing came.

“Fuck! John, don’t you know to go to a quieter place to make a phone call?”

John on the other end of the phone rolled his eyes, then walked to a place where the cheers were not so loud and shouted back:

“Boss Saury, but time is short and the task is heavy, I’ll make it short, this is it…”

“Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly!”

Randy Finley on the other end of the phone was about to lose his patience.

John then said awkwardly: “I found a piece of our Miami championship puzzle in Oklahoma City.”

“Oh, by the way, it’s a center… and an Asian center!”

Asian center?

Hearing this keyword, Randy Finley frowned.

He arranged the scouts’ March Madness inspection.

As far as he could remember, there were no Asians in this year’s inspection.

After thinking for a while, Finley decided to check John’s inspection KPI.

“John, I just looked at the player information. Your target for investigation today is Amit Tamir of the Golden Bears, right? How come he suddenly became an Asian center?”

“If you went to the stadium too late and didn’t get any valid information, I can give you a chance to make a fresh start…”

As soon as the words fell, John became anxious and quickly responded:

“Boss, I’m really not talking nonsense. I’m watching in the stadium now. He beat Tamir… To be precise, he beat him in overtime!”

Randy Finley on the other end of the phone showed a look of disbelief. He is the head of scouts and general manager of the Heat.

Finley has always believed in his sharp eyes, especially in terms of potential players.

This time, Amit Tamir was assigned by Finley. With a height of 211cm and a tonnage of NBA center level, he also has good low-post offense.

Ability.

Being beaten by an Asian kid in the penalty area?

This is impossible no matter how you think about it!

Just when Randy Finley wanted to scold John, John received another extremely explosive news: “Boss, the current known information is that he is a Chinese player and is only 19 years old.”

“I can guarantee that if he participates in the draft this year, he will be invited to the green room… just like Yao did in the past.”

The news coming through the microphone on the other end of the phone became more and more crazy, and Randy Finley looked serious.

John’s confident tone made the Heat general manager a little restless.

John in life is indeed unreliable many times, but John will never joke about the team’s draft prospects.

Randy Finley can be sure of this.

“If there is really a second Yao, then it seems that the game plan for this season will also need to be adjusted.

John, please contact him in advance and try to block the news so that other teams don’t get ahead of him. I need to report this to the boss.”

Randy Finley’s firm tone made John realize that he might have underestimated Wang Song’s potential.

He hung up the phone and walked around the stands towards the North Carolina Wolf Pack No. 9 on the court.

On the court.

Wang Song, surrounded by his teammates, walked towards the player tunnel.

Originally, he was just a small transparent person in the team, but after this battle, he instantly became the most popular player in the team.

The bench and the main teammates came up to get familiar with Wang Song.

“Wang, I’ve always thought you’d be great!”

“Haha, you don’t know. You grabbed two or three offensive rebounds in a row, and the Golden Bears coach’s face turned pale.”

“You’re too low-key, and you’re really good at hiding your talents!”

And North Carolina’s leading scorer this season, sophomore Julius Hodge, also sent his heartfelt congratulations.

“After this game, I believe Coach Herb will definitely give you stable playing time. You’ve got a place in the Wolfpack as a freshman, which will make many people envious.”

Just as everyone was talking happily, a dark-skinned man in casual clothes walked to the front of the stands.

He used extremely non-standard Chinese pronunciation and shouted towards Wang Song across the railing: “Woof!”

“Woof!”

Wang Song was also attracted by this strange call. Many foreigners here don’t pronounce their surnames very standardly.

So Wang Song is quite sensitive to the “Woof” call!

Turning around, John was waving at him wildly.
