One Guard
Chapter 63: I want to stay
"Dude, you are still as good as you were in high school!" After the game, Wall, the "winner", ran over and opened his arms to Yiyang.
When I was still in high school, people said that Bradley would be Wall's biggest opponent in the future. But Wall doesn't think so. He has always been worried about that little-known Chinese.
Now, this guy really came to him again. And in the future NBA career, he is also very likely to become his real biggest opponent!
Although Yiyang still had a cold look, he was not unkind. He greeted Wall with a hug, but said nothing.
"I won today, but you played better than me! Hey, let's fight again in the regular season! At that time, I won't be as polite as today!" Wall finished, smiling Patting Yiyang on the shoulder, he turned and walked towards the player tunnel. There, countless reporters are waiting for the champion.
"It's all my fault, I should seize those opportunities." After that, Jeremy Lin also came up to fist bump with Yiyang. This top Harvard student blames himself a bit, because Yiyang's performance is already good enough. The loss was actually lost to role players like them.
As for Sun Yue, another player who has attracted the attention of Chinese fans, he disappeared after the game. He did not greet Yiyang and others, and did not accept interviews with reporters. Because he knows very well that his NBA career is over.
In today's game, Sun Yue made only 2 of 7 shots and only scored 5 points. And under Yiyang's needlework, Jeremy Lin scored 17 points on top of a professional player named Sun Yue!
The Chinese fans are mixed, but they are still more happy to see that the Tanhua show from China can play such an excellent performance.
The basketball world is so cruel. After Yiyang appeared, Sun Yue's name has been gradually forgotten by people. Not many people care about whether he can play in the NBA. Survival of the fittest is professional basketball. This is the NBA.
"Play well boy, don't be discouraged, the outcome of the summer league doesn't mean anything. See? Those guys are waiting for you!" Although he lost the game, when Yiyang walked off the field, Terry Stotts laughed very happily.
Compared with the outcome of the competition, Yiyang's strength is more worthy of people's attention. The assistant coach who led the Mavericks to play in the summer league pointed to the player tunnel leading to the Mavericks locker room, where countless reporters were already waiting for Yiyang. It seems that Yiyang's treatment is no different from that of the champion.
"Yiyang! Yiyang! What do you think of John Wall's strength?" As soon as Yiyang approached the player tunnel, the reporters rushed forward without hesitation.
"He's very good, they won." Yi Yang replied angrily, after losing the game, he couldn't say that he was better.
"Yeah, you performed very well in the summer league. But for another Chinese player, Sun Yue, what would you say about him?" The reporters really dug one hole after another for Yiyang, just waiting for this fledgling young The guy is jumping. Sun Yue played so badly today, if Yiyang said something bad about Sun Yue, tomorrow he would definitely be popular all over the country!
"I don't know him well." However, Yiyang dismissed the reporter with only a cold sentence, and the enthusiastic reporters had been looking forward to it for a long time, and even thought of a headline that would be explosive. But in the end, they got nothing.
Yiyang pushed aside the crowd and tried his best to squeeze into the player tunnel. In fact, sometimes, it's not that Yiyang is aloof, but that these questions are just too boring.
"Hey, also, I noticed that there are two different guys on the sidelines paying attention to you today." Finally, Mu Ran suddenly appeared. The only reporter who made Yiyang feel good about him stopped Yiyang from moving forward.
"A different guy?" Yiyang had been engrossed in the game,
Of course, I didn't know that Mu Ran was referring to Kidd and Terry.
"I think you should be able to see them when you go back to the locker room later. By the way, how is your relationship with your teammates when you are training in the NBA team? Jason Kidd, there is a training ground Has your superior taught you?" Mu Ran's question was finally not so boring.
"I have a good relationship with my teammates. They all take care of me. As for Kidd, he never taught me anything."
Mu Ran smiled and said thank you, and let Yiyang walk into the player tunnel. Kidd hasn't taught you anything yet? That's because he's not yet sure if you're worth his teaching. Mu Ran believed that after today, Kidd would be very willing to let their Tanhua improve to a higher level.
"You are their champion puzzle..." Mu Ran looked at Yiyang's leaving back and muttered to himself.
Yiyang was the last one to return to the locker room because he was going to be interviewed by reporters. When Yiyang pushed open the locker room door, he found his teammates, including Jeremy Lin, all gathered together.
"Hey, sign for me too!" Omar Samhan, an undrafted rookie who performed well on the court, took off his jersey and rushed into the crowd.
"What the hell are you doing?" Yiyang squeezed in curiously, only to find out that Kidd and Terry were sitting in the middle of the locker room at the moment. Yiyang instantly figured out who the two guys Mu Ran mentioned just now were.
Yiyang, as a stable member of the Mavericks, of course he will not be excited by the appearance of Terry and Kidd. But others are completely different.
Most of the players who participated in the summer league never imagined that they could meet the star members of the team. Not to mention star players, they don't even have the chance to play on real NBA courts.
So, you can see how excited other people are when they find Kidd and Terry suddenly appearing in the locker room.
Kidd expertly signed Omar Samhan's Mavericks practice jersey, and then, smiling, he spotted Yiyang in the crowd.
"Why are you two here?" Before Kidd could speak, Yiyang took the lead to ask.
"We came here specially to check your work! You brat, you fight so damn hard!" Terry stood up and gave Yiyang a high-five.
"Also, I just talked to Coach Carlisle on the phone. You don't have to play summer league, you will go back to Dallas with us tomorrow. From now on, you will train with us!" Kidd is not like Terry always With an unruly appearance, the aged Kidd is more like a nice gentleman than Terry.
"Back to Dallas?" Yiyang looked around at his teammates after hearing Kidd's words.
Jeremy Lin who works well with him, Sam Han who is always conscientious, and other people who have experienced success and failure with him. Even though it was only the summer league, Yiyang also knew that these people were just his temporary teammates. But even he himself didn't expect that he would feel reluctant to leave.
"I'll go back after playing the summer league." Yiyang's answer was beyond everyone's expectations! The status of the team in Yiyang's heart is far more important than the individual!
Once, in order to make a living, he had to choose to play only one year in the college league. Had to say goodbye to Stevens, Hayward, Shelvin and others.
Now, Yiyang knows that sooner or later he and these guys will have to separate. For some, it may even be the last time they appear on the radar of the NBA. But Yiyang no longer wants to voluntarily choose to quit.
This guy who used to be lonely, this guy who used to be known only by people's eyes. It is the team that drives me to make such a big change!
Without Stevens' patience, without Shelvin Mark's turning enemies into friends, without Hayward's enthusiasm, without Matt Howard's loyalty... Without the influence of these people, Yiyang would be Maybe he's still that annoying brat.
"Are you sure?" Kidd wasn't angry, his expression just became serious.
"There are not a few games left anyway, is there?" Yiyang knew Kidd's status in the Mavericks, and even in the entire NBA. He didn't want and had no reason to offend Kidd, but he still refused.
Kidd patted Yiyang on the shoulder and smiled again. "Then finish the summer league, remember boy. From now on, we'll ask of you differently."
After speaking, Kidd and Terry walked out of the locker room. Yiyang stretched out his hand actively, wanting to high-five Jeremy Lin and Samhan.
"We lost, but the summer league isn't over yet. Let's win the next game!" The Asian boy, who didn't talk much, took the initiative to speak.
"Hey, you just let him continue to play in the garbage dump?" Terry was a little puzzled as he walked on the road. Obviously after the game, Kidd yelled that he would teach Yiyang everything. But now, he let go easily.
"Anyway, there are not many games left, and there is no shortage of these few days." Kidd still smiled. "You know what, man, I see something in that kid that's almost gone in this league."
"Okay, okay, I know that guy is good at passing the ball. Don't use that kid to brag about your former self." Terry waved his hand.
"No, I'm not talking about his passing, or his speed."
"What's that?" Terry asked curiously.
"Human touch." Kidd thought of Yiyang's cold expression, and his heart that was extremely inconsistent with his appearance.
Sometimes, traits that have nothing to do with basketball. Maybe it will make that kid go further...
