Chapter 3 This is the chance God gave me

boom! ! !
Everyone present paused slightly, not for anything else but because of Tang Qian's buckle just now.

That strength.

That momentum.

Is this still a college student?
Is this still a freshman?
After landing, Tang Qian bumped away Li Huang who was still in a daze, then walked past Zhang Kejia and said:
"Pass the ball, did you hear that?"

Zhang Kejia nodded awkwardly. He is not a fool. The strength of Tang Qian's back button just now is really unimaginable.If it weren't for the fact that the basketball hoop in this gymnasium hadn't been replaced for a long time, Tang Qian's dunk just now would have been enough to unscrew the hoop.

After a moment of silence, the game kicked off.

Due to Tang Qian's make-up just now, the momentum on the scene has subtly reversed. Zhang Kejia took the initiative to pass a few balls to Tang Qian, and the latter scored all of them without exception.And it was all done on Li Huang's head.

And, all of them are slam dunks.

"Hey, Zhang Kejia, what are you doing? Didn't we agree to play on our own before? Why are you passing the ball to these ordinary people?" Zeng Zhi seemed to slow down, and took the opportunity to whisper in Zhang Kejia's ear when he returned to defense.

"That guy..." Zhang Kejia looked at Tang Qian's tower-like figure, and said with difficulty, "It's not an ordinary person."

"What's not an ordinary person?" Zeng Zhi got a little angry, and said contemptuously: "I'm not even a sports special recruit, how can my physical fitness be so strong? The dunk just now was just relying on my height. If I was that tall, the same It can be done easily."

Zhang Kejia frowned and looked at Zeng Zhi, and said, "You don't believe me? Well, you can play by yourself!"

"I can't wish for it!" Zeng Zhi continued.

"Idiot." Zhang Kejia looked at Zeng Zhi's running back and said in a low voice.

"Pass the ball."

After Tang Qian got into position, he immediately waved to Zeng Zhi who was in possession of the ball.

But Zeng Zhi, who was standing outside the three-point line, chose to ignore it. After dribbling the ball under his crotch, with his good physical fitness, he was able to get rid of Huang Jiabin's obstruction. rise.

Looking at that appearance, it seems that he is about to perform a dunk.

Zeng Zhi was originally trained in triple jumping, so when the attack came together, in normal times, few people could stop it.

Moreover, he is not short, with a standard height of 190 cm.

At this height line, plus he already has a good bounce, there is really no big problem if he wants to perform a slam dunk in the game.However, Zeng Zhi forgot that this is not a wild field. In a real basketball game, even if you pass the defender, there are still checkpoints in the interior.

After being bombarded by Tang Qian several times in a row, Li Huang was already suffocating in his stomach. Seeing that another freshman was about to come in and dunk, he immediately became angry, and with a slippery step, he bounced off the ground.

Snapped!
Zeng Zhi was given a big hot pot by Li Huang directly.

Zeng Zhi, who staggered a few times on the ground, felt his face plummeted, and immediately grabbed Tang Qian, who was also a center, and shouted: "What are you doing? You clearly saw that I was going to dunk, why didn't you block him? Let him cover me, you Is it cool?"

Tang Qian, who was returning to defense, glanced at him and said lightly: "I'm very happy."

"What???" Zeng Zhimao yelled at Tang Qian, "Basketball is a team sport, you don't even have a sense of cover, and Bai Chang is so big! You can tell that you are a novice at a glance, and you have no spirit of cooperation! "

"Cover? Did you ask me for it?" Tang Qian said.

"I didn't say you wouldn't take the initiative to give it, did I? Are you a pig? Can you play basketball?" Tang Qian's dull answer, Zeng Zhi became more and more annoyed as he listened to it, and finally he gritted his teeth and blurted out curse words.

"Better than you." Tang Qian replied coldly.

After speaking, Tang Qian jumped up, snatched a half-block that Cheng Dong missed, and then thrust it into the hands of point guard Wu Fan, saying, "Alley."

Wu Fan's eyes lit up when he heard it. After all, compared to the arrogance of Zhang Kejia and Zeng Zhi, he was more inclined to support the taciturn Tang Qian.

Besides, with an alley-oop, he can also add an assist, can't he?
After thinking about it for a while, Wu Fan settled his position. After leading the basketball steadily through the half court, he didn't care about Zeng Zhi jumping aside to ask for the ball. He saw the opportunity and directly threw the ball into the air.

"Have you lost your mind? Didn't you see that I was empty? What are you throwing like this?" Zeng Zhigang finished cursing, and a loud basket-loading sound resounded throughout the audience.

Tang Qian received the pass from Wu Fan and succeeded in the alley-oop.

"Good pass." Tang Qian and Wu Fan clapped their hands together.

In the following rounds, similar scenes were almost always staged. Tang Qian grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to Wu Fan.For several minutes, Zeng Zhi could not touch the ball once.

"Damn it, are you trying to isolate me? I'm not going to defend anymore, let's see what you four do!" Zeng Zhi also figured out Tang Qian's intentions, and immediately spoke harshly.

But Tang Qian didn't care at all, just said to him: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you are there or not."

"I'm your MD... okay, I want to see how you fight!" Zeng Zhi was determined to have sex with Tang Qian, because what the latter said was really hurtful.What do you mean it doesn't matter if you have me or not?Do you want to say, even if you hit four against five, you can still handle it?ridiculous!I, Zeng Zhi, will wait, waiting for you to talk and slap your mouth later!Waiting for you to make a fool of yourself! ! !
How could Tang Qian not know what Zeng Zhi was thinking, but he was still confident, after all, the opponent's inside line was not enough for him to stir up trouble.

In the next few minutes, Tang Qian's freshman team started the massacre mode. The four of them used Tang Qian as the axis to cover and run continuously.Although the shots of the other three cannot be said to hit every shot, they are still quite high, because shooting from a wide area is really not difficult. Even if you are an ordinary person and no one is defending, the accuracy of those smooth shots will not be hard to see. where to go.

On the other hand, on the main team, although Zeng Zhi was passive and sabotage, he didn't dare to stand still, so compared to the freshman team's shooting opportunities, their side was slightly inferior.

There is no other reason, mainly because the main team has no rebounds.

Even people who play wild ball know that scoring points in a team with rebound guarantees and in a team without rebound guarantees are completely different things.Needless to say, even the pressure of making a move would be more than half relaxed.

And right now the main team is not a question of how many rebounds, but no rebounds at all.

Not a single rebound.

This may seem a bit exaggerated, but it is being staged in reality, and it is merciless.

Almost all of the rebounds were taken off by Tang Qian's long arms, and the few remaining ones that were knocked far away were also taken by everyone else in the freshman group. Under such a situation, the main group wanted to shoot. , It's really hard not to be cautious.

On the court, if you are too cautious, you will be restrained and difficult to perform.

Taking advantage of everyone's courageous efforts, after the end of the second quarter, the freshman group had already tied with the main group.

The score was fixed at 38 to 38.

That is to say, in the entire quarter, the main team only scored a pitiful five points.

This scene, compared to the first quarter, is completely like a world away.

"Cheng, Cheng Jiao, the situation on the scene is very bad, should we pause first..." Even Liu Dong, a layman, could see the clues to the contradictions on the court.

"No need." Cheng Jianguo glanced at the tall figure and muttered to himself in a low voice: "Come on, let me see how far you can go."

The newcomer stands up.

If you can do it.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Cheng Jianguo asked Lu Yang to push Zeng Zhi down. Regarding this special recruit who did his own way and was of average strength, he already had the thought of giving up in his heart.

Without Zeng Zhi, who was holding him back, the freshman group played more and more smoothly and high, and finally within a quarter, they shot continuously and scored 78 points.After the third quarter, they won by 44 points 34 to [-].

"Okay, that's enough, this is the end of the match." Cheng Jianguo stopped the match from continuing, because if the match continued, he was afraid that those in the main team would completely lose confidence.

If this happens, it will be worth the loss.

After all, if you want to participate in Cuba and get a good ranking, without these old players, it will not work.

But through such a game, Cheng Jianguo has already seen a lot.

The "big" freshman with a handsome face is definitely not something in the pool. The National High School League MVP for three consecutive years is not a name for nothing.

In just one game, he can establish his status and win the trust of his teammates, this son... is extraordinary.

In China, who was the last such genius?
Cheng Jianguo thought of Chen Jianghua, but unfortunately, in the past few years of his CBA career, this young talented guard has not played at the level he should have. Instead, his ball sense and spirituality have fallen again and again, which makes people feel embarrassed.

Anyone else?I heard that Guo Shiqiang has a nephew who is also very good, but I have never seen it with my own eyes.

But no matter what, those people are not from Cuba, and this kid named Tang Qian can definitely dominate this field.

No, not only here, this place is too small, if he can continue to grow, the CBA, the national team, or even the far side of the ocean may be his destination.

I can't just watch a genius being wasted!

Suddenly, Cheng Jianguo made a big decision.

"Okay, everyone is tired today, I will arrange the cleaning, just remember to come to train as usual tomorrow."

"Oh, by the way, Tang Qian, you stay here for a while."

Tang Qian and Lu Yang were about to leave together. After hearing Cheng Jianguo's words, he could only let Lu Yang go first.

"Coach Cheng, what's the matter?" Tang Qian looked at Cheng Jianguo and said.

"Xiao Tang, I have something I want to ask you."

"Well, ask, coach." Tang Qian said.

"Do you like playing basketball?" Cheng Jianguo said this very seriously, with no intention of joking.

Tang Qian froze for a moment, and said, "Well, I like it."

Well, there is a door!

Seeing Tang Qian's manner of speaking, he concluded that the tall boy in front of him was definitely not being perfunctory.

"Then do you want to go further?" Cheng Jianguo asked cautiously.

"Go further?" Tang Qian didn't understand.

"That is to say, do you want to take it as a career in the future?" Cheng Jianguo stared at Tang Qian and said.

Why did he ask that way earlier, it was just to pave the way for the present sentence.

Because in China, there may be many students who like to play basketball, but if they really want to take it as a career in the future, maybe few people are willing to stick to it.

China is not the United States. Although the audience of basketball has shown an explosive growth trend in recent years, they are all hobbies. How many people really choose to play professional basketball in the future?It seems that being a white-collar worker, taking the civil service exam, running a business, or even opening a shop by yourself is more comfortable and safer than this.Don't look at the high salaries of cba players in recent years, but that is for the star players at the top of the pyramid. As for the vast majority of ordinary players, they are only 20 million a year at the beginning. After playing for a few years, they are usually stable Between 40 and 70.Maybe you think this is a lot, but how long is the lifespan of a professional player?You can't survive until you are 35 or six years old, and you have to ensure that you will not be seriously injured during the period.Compared with ordinary jobs, one can work until the age of 60, which is not even half of the time.Furthermore, professional players need a lot of exercise every day to maintain their state. This kind of super-intensive exercise is simply unbearable for ordinary people.Of course, you can say that compared with the training of the NBA, the CBA is nothing more than a drizzle for children, but this is nothing more than standing and talking without back pain. What level is the nba? What is the level of cba?The two cannot be compared at all.I remember that there was such a report that people who can support the daily training level of the NBA are basketball geniuses, but the NBA is a gathering place for geniuses, so it is not so conspicuous.

To use a simple analogy, the average person finds it difficult to train for a high school team. As for the cba level, after a long time, you will be directly crippled.The training at the NBA level is no exaggeration, like the physical foundation of ordinary people, it will completely collapse in a short time, and it is not impossible to forcefully insist on practicing directly to death (Xiaozi feels deeply about this in the university team, although I'm just a small understudy).Don’t you think there are so many people in China who are persevering?Sometimes your spirit may be able to persist, but your body cannot bear it.

This is what Cheng Jianguo has learned over the decades as a coach.

He has also been to the United States for NBA inspections, and he has also had close contact with some NBA stars.

However, the more he got in touch with him, the more emotional he felt. Sometimes, the quality of the body really cannot be summed up by simple speed and strength.For example, Kobe Bryant, who is in full swing in the NBA, Cheng Jianguo is not the most frightening thing about his wingspan, nor his skills. He thinks that the most terrifying thing about Kobe Bryant is his ability to practice.

Yes, you can practice.

Even most NBA players can't bear the training intensity like him, but he can do it day after day, year after year. This kind of physical endurance has almost reached a terrifying level.

Everyone knows that playing basketball requires more practice and strengthening, but the question is, you need to practice and strengthen, first of all, whether your body can hold it.

No matter how good or subtle your training method is, it will be useless if your body cannot bear the intensity of training.

That's why it's commonplace for people to use scientific training methods.

Otherwise, don't you just need to "hard work"?
Professional basketball is not that simple, so before asking certain questions, Cheng Jianguo needs to clarify one question.

That is the big boy in front of him, does he really like basketball?

I like it from the bottom of my heart.

"Professional? Professional basketball?" Tang Qian said without hesitation this time: "Of course."

"That's what I've always intended."

"Really?" Tang Qian's answer surprised him. Cheng Jianguo suppressed his emotions and said, "But classmate Tang, I want to remind you here that choosing to play professional basketball in China is very risky." Big ones. Even one bad one will waste time and waste a lifetime.”

"Would you like that too?"

"Yes." Tang Qian said without thinking.

"Why are you so straightforward?" Cheng Jianguo asked suspiciously.

Because from Tang Qian's tone, he heard that the other party was not temporarily excited.

"Because I like playing basketball."

"And God gave me that opportunity."

"I have no reason to waste any more."

........................

That night, after Cheng Jianguo finished his dinner, he couldn't wait to unplug an old acquaintance.

beep~ beep~ beep~
"Hey, who is it?"

"I said, Lao Li, don't you recognize my voice? Or do you mean you didn't save my number at all?"

"Oh, it's Jianguo. What's this about? I've been looking at player profiles just now. What's the matter? What's the matter?"

"That's right, Lao Li, I heard that you plan to lead this year's U17 youth team, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"Hehe, I have a candidate here, and I want to recommend it."

"Recommended candidates? Is this rare?" The other end of the phone also smiled, and then said: "But the big list seems to have been drawn up, this..."

"Old Li, it's because you're being unkind. The list was just drawn up but not handed in. You can be flexible, isn't it all right?"

"This one……"

"Hey, let me tell you what's the matter with you. When you asked me for help before, I didn't refuse!" Hearing the other party's hesitation, Cheng Jianguo suddenly became a little unhappy, and raised his voice: "Don't take it!" I know better than you about those muscles and joints that come to scare me. Just a quick word, will you help?"

"Jianguo, don't be so anxious. I didn't say I wouldn't help you. Why do you get anxious just talking?"

"Oh, Lao Li, according to what you said, there is no problem, right?"

"Hey, if I don't agree to you today, why don't you come to Beijing by plane and dismantle me? I'm already old, but I'm not as healthy as you." The person on the other end of the phone could only smile helplessly.

"But we have to agree on one thing, that is, the age of the person you recommend must not exceed 17 years old, as long as it is one day less, I have no problem."

"What? See what you mean, u17 is an older boy scout again this time?"

"Who says it's not, alas, you can't offend me at all."

"Haha, don't worry, the person I recommend is definitely not over 17 years old, I won't make it too difficult for you."

"That's fine. It's fine if you are under the age. You will send his information later so that I can draw up a new list."

"Okay." Cheng Jianguo replied readily.

At this moment, on the other side, Tang Qian was also talking in the room with his mobile phone.

"Mom and Dad, this is an opportunity, I want to give it a try." Tang Qian said to the phone.

"Have you figured it out?" said a calm male voice over the phone.

"Well, Dad, I've made up my mind." Tang Qian nodded.

"Hey, my son's father, how did we discuss it just now? Why did you suddenly change your mind? No, my son just got into college with great difficulty. How can he play basketball instead of studying? I don't agree!" The phone rang suddenly. There was a middle-aged woman's voice. It was obvious that Tang Qian's parents had turned on the speakerphone, so Tang's mother could hear every word of the conversation between Tang Qian and Tang's father.

"Mom, didn't you always support me in playing basketball?" Tang Qian frowned.

"Son, if you just play for fun, as a daily hobby, your mother will of course support you, but according to you, if you plan to treat it as a career, this mother will not agree."

"why?"

"Son, it's not easy to be an athlete. Look at Xiaobao from Uncle Jin's house next door. Isn't he just practicing long-distance running? How is he doing now? He even broke his foot and didn't make much money. Half of my life will be spent in a wheelchair and crutches!"

"mom……"

"Son, mom doesn't want how much money you can earn in the future. Mom is afraid that you will get hurt. If you get seriously injured or become disabled, what can you call me and your dad?"

Tang Qian was silent when he heard the words.

He knew how much the man on the phone loved him.

But there are some things, if you don't do it yourself, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

He looked at the mirror, looked at the burly and tall young man in the mirror, took a deep breath, and said:

"Mom, what do you know?"

"This is an opportunity God gave me."

"It's an opportunity I've been longing for."

"I... have to try."
