When pride still matters

Chapter 21 He is so crazy

So just like that, Andre Iguodala, ranked 2002th among high schools in the United States in the class of 68, joined Yu Fei's Emerald team.

Why is it so difficult for Iguodala, ranked 68th, to join the senior team?There are two main reasons. Iguodala himself does not have the immediate combat ability to leapfrog, otherwise he would not be ranked 68th.Secondly, in the teenage stage, even if there is only one grade difference, the gap in combat strength is very obvious.

This is also the reason why athletes in our country’s national system change their ages in order to pursue youth performance.

At this stage, being 1 year older will have obvious advantages. What about 2, 3 or even 4 years older?

Since ancient times, there have only been a handful of super geniuses who can transcend levels and defeat monsters.

Just when Yu Fei was about to take Iguodala to see how many people Roy had recruited, a mature and steady-looking young man suddenly passed by in front of him.

Because this face was so recognizable, Yu Fei's DNA suddenly started to vibrate in the form of violent facial tremors.

Yu Fei suddenly turned around and looked at the man - he was wearing No. 155.

"Hey!" Yu Fei shouted.

At this moment, Yu Fei was like Tang Ren who went to the police station to cause trouble in the first part of "Detective Chinatown". The loud "Surprised~~~" made the whole audience focus on him.

No. 155 turned around. Even though his hair was thick, even though he didn't have the appearance of a king yet, and even though he was only one of the few tenth graders in the training camp, this face was already the most difficult for Yu Fei in his previous life. One of the forgotten faces.

LeBron James!

Yu Fei didn't expect to see him here!

Which one feels more out of place for Yu Fei, Kobe with his short hair or James with his enviable hairline?
The answer is the latter.

Again, Kobe Bryant has nothing left over from Yu Fei’s youth, and James, who stopped wearing headbands after 2015 and pushed the war between himself and his hairline to a stage, is the one who is interested in basketball. The most impressive basketball star after the egg.

"Do you know me?" James asked.

Yu Fei said: "I don't know, but isn't this platform just for us to get to know each other?"

James smiled and said, "You are right, I am LeBron James from Akron. I was ranked No. 2003 in the class of [-]."

It is an unspoken rule of the training camp to mention his national high school ranking when introducing himself, and James is not doing it to show off.

He doesn't need to show off either.

"My name is Yu Fei, from Kent." Yu Fei said, "I was ranked No. 2001 LeBron in the 16 class. Since you are ranked No. [-], I think you should have joined the team, right?"

James nodded and said: "I have my own team."

Since James is from the 2003 class and is definitely a junior, Yu Fei can neither be his teammate nor his opponent.

After just a brief acquaintance, Yu Fei walked away with Iguodala.

"Fu Lai, do you know that child?"

So funny, Iguodala calls James a kid.

But Xiao Zhan is only 15 and a half years old now, so he can indeed be said to be a child.

Although he looks mature, his face still looks childish.

"Don't you watch the news, Andre?" Yu Fei said, "Mr. Vaccaro has always said that he saw a kid in Akron who will be better than Kobe, T-Mac, and KG in the future, and that's him. .”

"he?"

Better than Garnett, Kobe, and McGrady?
Iguodala was skeptical.

It's normal to have doubts. Even in 2003, when James entered the NBA with the aura of being the only one in history, if someone told you at that time that 20 years later, this person would break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's total scoring record. Would you believe it?
It's so rare to find a player like James who not only lives up to the hype, but also greatly exceeds the pre-draft hype.

After a while, Yu Fei finally found Roy with Iguodala.

The result surprised Yu Fei. After a while, Roy actually tricked three people into joining the team.

Moreover, there was someone familiar to Yu Fei inside.

That's a white man.

"Captain, my name is Francisco Garcia (Francisco Garcia SG/SF). I was born in the Dominican Republic but grew up in the United States. I am currently ranked 2002th in the United States in the class of 77."

Yu Fei vaguely remembered that Garcia played for the Rockets during the Harden era.

He doesn't know how he will fare, but he is not a star anyway.

But if those who debuted at this time were still playing in the NBA until the Harden era, they must have been qualified role players who have played in the NBA for many years.

The other two are Yu Fei and Roy's classmates.

They are BJ Elder PG/SG, a combo guard who did not enter the national rankings, and Wes Wilkinson C, a white center who was ranked 2001th in the United States in the class of 100.

When he heard that Wilkins was ranked 100th in the United States, Yu Fei said funnyly: "It seems that you stole Brandon's position. You actually dare to join my team. You don't know that Brandon is me." A good brother?"

Wilkins said happily: "Actually, I have always wanted to find an opportunity to give up this ranking. If I can help Brandon return to the top 100 in the United States in this training camp, I will be grateful. 100 is too boring for me.”

Roy and Elder felt quite uncomfortable with this behavior that was suspicious of Versailles.However, at this point, the number of members of the Emerald team has reached 6. Since the single game of the ABCD training camp is not long, 6 people are barely enough.

After about an hour, recruitment for each team was basically completed.

During this period, Yu Fei recruited another point guard named Gary Ervin (Gary Ervin PG) into the team. He was ranked 2002th in the United States in the 94 class.

Since he was in the 11th grade and his ranking was low, he was finally recruited into the team by Yu Fei.

It is worth mentioning that D'Angelo Collins' explosive team has 11 players, and they are basically all 2001 seniors on the list.

If such a team is released to participate in AAU competition, it will definitely be a devastating force.

No AAU team can boast as many high school stars as they do.

What's even worse for the Emerald team is that they are in the same division as the Shocking Team. According to the rules of the round-robin, the two teams will play against each other on the third day, which is also the last day of the round-robin.

Yu Fei didn't feel anything, but Roy was scared to death.

"That's Shaq, who is said to be 6 feet 9 inches. He is surrounded by a group of top high school students. How will he play in this game?"

The first day's game hasn't even started yet, and Luo Dazhongming is already worried about the third day's game.

"Well, Team Shock is indeed difficult to deal with, but I would also like to know who our first opponent is today?" Yu Fei asked.

Roy asked others: "BJ, you have seen the schedule, you should know who the first opponent is, right?"

BJ Elder said: "It's a team called Oscars."

Hearing the name, Iguodala reacted: "That's Big Will's team!"

"Big Will?"

"That's the guy who turned me down," Iguodala said. "Will Bynum PG, he was the No. 2001 high school player in the country in the class of 53 and the captain of the Oscar team."

Will Bynum?Another familiar name.

"Shouldn't you be happy?" Yu Fei said to Iguodala, "The opportunity for revenge has come so soon!"

Iguodala also smiled after reacting: "Yes, I will prove that he was wrong!"

"No, you don't have to prove anything to him. You should prove to me that I didn't make a mistake." Yu Fei taught Iguodala like a big brother.

Iguodala nodded like a chicken sucking rice: "Fu Lai, I will never let you down!"

Ten minutes later, the staff came to remind Yu Fei that their game against Team Oscar was about to begin.

So Yu Fei took the players to the competition venue, and they were arranged in Arena No. 10 of the Roseman Center.

Will Bynum was surprised when he saw Iguodala playing for the Emeralds.

He didn't know why a top 20 high school student in the country like Yu Fei would agree to let such an 11th grader join his team.

"Aren't you worried that he will hold you back?" Bynum asked hurtfully.

Yu Fei suddenly felt a little disgusted with time travel. Why did everyone look familiar, but then he still couldn't recognize them?

Will Bynum?This guy's name even sounds familiar.

"You are too short, Will." Yu Fei said impatiently.

Bynum asked displeasedly: "What do you mean?"

"You are like a frog in a well, short-sighted and unable to see Andre's future." Yu Fei said in front of Iguodala, "I bet that Andre can enter the NBA, and you, with all due respect, can , going overseas to be a mediocre American foreign aid is your final destination!"

Originally, Bynum was quite in awe of Yu Fei, a top 20 player in the United States, but since Yu Fei came up with the attitude of stepping on his head and humiliating him, he couldn't care about anything else.

The tension between the two sides was strong from the beginning.

Then, Wilkins helped the Emerald team win the opening ball. Yu Fei caught the ball and brought it to the frontcourt. As if he knew that there were countless eyes staring at him, he showed off his luck control in the face of Bynum's The defender was not nervous, pushed the opponent away with his butt, and asked frivolously: "Are you anxious? Isn't it because you can't play in the NBA in the future? That's not the case, is it? Hey, Andre!"

As soon as Yu Fei finished speaking, Iguodala ran towards the basket with all his strength.

Yu Fei put the ball away easily, just like those villains in martial arts novels who like to stab people in the back, and threw the ball into the air like a dart with a mocking look on his face.

Bynum was too short and he couldn't stop Yu Fei at all.

The basketball flew into the air, and Iguodala rose up, caught it in the air, and instantly smashed it into the basket.

"Handsome Andre!"

Roy knew that Iguodala had two tricks, otherwise Yu Fei would not recruit him to join the team. Unexpectedly, this guy not only had two tricks, he simply had four tricks!

⑴What is a big thing?According to simple science, if there is a top rookie in the dark world who wants to debut, this kind of person will be called a big thing.Congratulations, you have learned another piece of useless knowledge.
