The Golden Age of Basketball
Chapter 49 The Dunk Apprentice
() Gan Guoyang won Falk's favor with just one goal, one assist and one defense.
It may take some time to pick out a beautiful swan from a flock of big white geese, but it couldn't be easier to pick a white crane from a flock of chickens.
Although Gan Guoyang is a man of yellow race, Falk saw a unique talent in Gan Guoyang, a kind of superstar temperament.
This made him a little impatient, and before the game was over, he stepped forward and said loudly that he wanted to talk to Gan Guoyang.
Gan Guoyang ignored Falk, and unlike other street players who regarded Falk as a savior, Gan Guoyang didn't have much affection for this thin-haired, gloomy-faced Jew.
From his eyes, Gan Guoyang seemed to be able to see the cunning, trickery and greed contained in it.
Therefore, Gan Guoyang shook his head at him, indicating that the game would continue, and then ran back to the half court to defend.
However, apart from being cunning and greedy, Falke is the same as Gan Guoyang in a few points, that is, tenacity, aggressiveness, and will not give up until he reaches his goal.
This is inherited from his equally competitive and hardworking mother.
So, he patiently stayed on the sidelines, watching the 6-foot-10 center play the point guard position and play with those street fish.
At this time, Gan Guoyang is like a magician on the field. He constantly directs the running positions of his teammates on the field, and passes the ball accurately when the opportunity comes out.
If there is no chance, he will also rely on his personal ability to create opportunities, or use one or two passes to change the offensive situation on the field.
Even in the face of a group of street players whose strength is far inferior to his, even in a position he is not familiar with, Gan Guoyang's face is still so focused, as if he is fighting a key battle related to the victory or defeat of the series.
When his teammates score a goal, he will cheer loudly, comfort and encourage him after making a mistake, and shout and curse loudly during defense.
All teammates are listening to his command, and all spectators are paying attention to him.
Gan Guoyang became the focus of the field in 1 minute, the core of the team in 2 minutes, the leader of the team in 3 minutes, and led the temporary team to victory in 5 minutes.
This is the difference between stars and ordinary players.
If Falk had gone to watch the California Secondary League more than two months ago, perhaps he would not have seen Gan Guoyang like this.
Two months later, Gan Guoyang, apart from relying on continuous training to improve and even torture himself physically, also began to change his concept in attitude.
In the past, he always thought that he should concentrate his energy on the most difficult battles. In some irrelevant games, or during garbage time, he didn't work hard and played the ball unsteadily.
Now he feels that no matter what kind of opponent he faces, as long as it is a game, he must work [-]% to win every game.
He doesn't want to feel the taste of failure anymore, although this is inevitable in basketball life.
But if he tried his best every game, he would feel better.
Falk saw another advantage in Gan Guoyang: unparalleled concentration and strong competitive spirit.
This is often a key factor in determining whether a player can truly succeed in the professional league.
There are too many geniuses who waste their great talents in vain because they are unrestrained and uncompetitive.
"Beep!" The referee blew the whistle to end the game.
The game became no suspense because of the addition of Gan Guoyang. Under the leadership of their point guard and center, the white team led the way and easily defeated the blue team by 15 points.
Although Gan Guoyang didn't score many points, he, the point guard who played as a center forward, completed the task brilliantly, organized the team's offense, supported the team's defense, and demonstrated his basketball ability beyond others.
"Mr. Gan, your performance is really amazing. It's really amazing. I even saw the shadow of a magician." Falke did not hesitate to praise Gan Guoyang's performance.
"Thank you, Mr. Falk. I'm just enjoying the basketball itself. I think this kind of game is very fun." Gan Guoyang said, in addition to winning, he also found that as long as he puts all his heart into the game, no matter the opponent or himself No matter how big the level difference is, everyone can enjoy the fun of basketball.
Others on the field were also convinced by Gan Guoyang's performance.
Especially the players of the white team. For the first time, they felt that playing with such a player can be so comfortable.
Slater found that if he was in the right place at the right time, the ball would reach him, he would throw the basketball in the hoop, and the mission would be over.
This is the real high-level basketball, simple, efficient and practical.
"Okay, Mr. Gan, I think we should talk, talk about your future, and talk about some of your thoughts on basketball." At this time, Falk only had Gan Guoyang in his eyes, and the fat black man had long been thrown out On the one hand, Falk will not pay attention to this down-and-out old street ball ruffian anymore.
"What do you think? Of course I will go to college and play in NCAA. If I'm lucky enough, I can see if I can play in NBA. That's it. I've already got an offer from UCLA." In Gan Guoyang's mind, this should be his own With the established route, he will not waste his good talent in vain.
"Oh my God, UCLA, the place where Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Bill Wharton were trained, it's really a good place." Falk felt a little disappointed, because if Gan Guoyang can go to UCLA, it means that this guy is by no means Chi of things.
But this will not reflect the value of his Falk.
"But, why have I never heard of you? I mean, I haven't seen any reports about you in newspapers or magazines. Maybe it's because I've been in the East for a long time and I don't know the basketball situation in California. But before Jia Before Barr and Wharton entered UCLA, they were famous all over the United States." Falk continued, there seemed to be a hint of thorn in his tone.
"Mr. Falk, you look at my face and see it clearly. It is a pure and unadulterated Chinese face. Do you think the media in California will spend a lot of space for such a face? No Unless one day I win the nba championship, I don't think they will look at me." Although Gan Guoyang's words are obviously exaggerated, in fact, as long as he enters ucla and starts to participate in competitions, the eyes of the whole United States will focus on him come on.
But he did suffer from media injustice, and in the foreseeable future, this injustice will continue, just because he is a yellow man, a Chinese.
In the American sports world, the status of Chinese immigrants is even worse than that of Nigerians, and now a Nigerian star has already taken off in Space City.
Falke could understand Gan Guoyang's feelings when he heard what he said.
In the 60s, the racial movement in the United States reached its climax, and racial segregation was abolished.
However, racial discrimination is far from disappearing in American social life.
In the 70s, the NBA entered a dark age. The NBA, where the vast majority were black, was full of drugs, alcohol and violence.
The nba is ostracized by mainstream American society, who blame the blacks for the league's depravity.
However, basketball is an out-and-out black sport, and blacks account for the vast majority of star players.
But now, as a man of yellow race, he is even inferior to blacks in the basketball world, so how could he gain the attention and popularity of the mass media.
"I think, if you get some help, you may be able to completely change the current situation, and even affect the entire NBA in the future." Falk suddenly had a huge plan in his mind. Although it was just a thought, he felt that if It will be a development of great significance if it can be completed step by step.
"Hey hello butterbomb, can I play basketball with you for a while?"
Gan Guoyang didn't understand what Falk meant, but he heard a thick male duck's voice in his ear.
Gan Guoyang turned his head and saw a black boy standing behind him, holding a basketball in his hand, looking at him eagerly.
"Hello, uh, I'm talking to someone now, wait for me a moment, ok?" Gan Guoyang said to the boy.
"Mr. Falk, I understand what you mean. But I don't think it's time for me to consider these issues. If necessary, I will definitely contact you. You can leave me an address or a phone number." Gan Guoyang knew that this law Erke wanted to build a brokerage team for him to handle various affairs.
But let’s not talk about whether Gan Guoyang can become a star. Ordinary players can’t enjoy this kind of treatment. Besides, Gan Guoyang still has to go to college. He thinks he doesn’t need to deal with any messy things for the time being, so he tactfully rejected Falk.
"It's okay, Mr. Gan. Here is my business card. It has my company address and phone number. If you need it, you can contact me at any time. I think there will be a day."
"Thank you Mr. Falk, this little guy seems to want to play basketball with me for a while, I think I should satisfy him."
"No problem. A star must first learn how to treat his fans. You are doing the right thing. I have something to go. I don't want to stay here for a minute. I wish you good luck and see you again when you have a chance." Erke knew that it was pointless to continue entanglement, the seeds planted would slowly bear fruit, and he had more important people and things to deal with. <period boy.
"Mr. Butter, can you teach me to dunk?" The boy didn't know Gan Guoyang's name, but he knew the nickname "Butter Bomb", so he called him Mr. Butter.
"Call me Gan. Today is not the weekend, don't you go to school?" Gan Guoyang asked, seeing that he was only eleven or twelve years old, although blacks were precocious.
"Yes, I skipped class because I knew there was a scout coming today and there would be a game here. But I still hope you can teach me to dunk, just like yesterday and today in the game, that's what I saw at the street court Most graceful dunk."
Gan Guoyang has been praised for his accurate shooting, strong rebounds, good defense, and good shot blocking. Even though dunks are not really his strong point, he only regards dunks as a means of scoring.
The reason why he repeatedly thought about the dunk in the North District Finals was because it involved a very important issue, which was also an idea that Gan Guoyang had been guessing.
Now in Inglewood, he actually made similar dunks twice, which further affirmed the conjecture in his mind.
But this boy wanted Gan Guoyang to teach him how to dunk, which really made Gan Guoyang scratch his head.
"Okay, but first you have to be able to dunk." Gan Guoyang looked at the thin boy who was over 6 feet old.
At the age of eleven or twelve, he was still growing his body. He could grow to 6 feet. It seems that he will definitely not be short in the future.
"No problem! Watch."
As the male duck said, he picked up the basketball in his hand and ran to the basket, 20 feet away from the basket.
Then, he skillfully dribbled, held the ball, took off, and dunked with both hands!
"Wow, that's amazing jumping." Gan Guoyang looked a little surprised. He knew that this guy would definitely dunk, otherwise he wouldn't have come to teach him.
But his jumping ability still surprised Gan Guoyang. Visually, his take-off height must have exceeded 3 feet.
3 feet is a hurdle for jumping. Those with a vertical jump of more than 3 feet are considered to be super strong jumpers. For run-up jumps, 3 feet is the basic line for outstanding jumping.
With Gan Guoyang live65's jumping talent, coupled with his continuous efforts after coming to the United States, his approach jumping 3 feet is almost his limit.
And this little male duck's voice, which has just developed, so easily surpassed his jumping level, which really made him a little psychologically unbalanced.
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll teach you how to make your dunk look more graceful and beautiful. Your dunk just now looks like you're digging out a bird's nest."
Gan Guoyang still decided to use his own experience to teach this talented little guy some tricks.
…………
Wang Fuxi didn't attend class well all morning.
Although it is approaching the end of the period, this will be the last semester of intensive study, and the 12th grade will start to think about applying to universities.
"Chris? What's wrong with you today? You've been in a daze all this time, Chris?" Chris is Wang Fuxi's English name. After school at noon, her good friend Martha asked.
"Huh? No... nothing... I just... Maybe I haven't slept well recently." Wang Fuxi seemed a little incoherent, she didn't know where to focus her attention.
"Oh my God, Chris, are you in love? Tell me, is there anyone in Inglewood who can win the favor of Queen Chris?" Martha noticed that Wang Fuxi was a little different from usual. Not like today.
Although Wang Fuxi is a Chinese-American mixed race, she is a beautiful woman in all directions and 360 degrees, and her personality is more American.
In school, she has always been competitive. She has to be the first in everything, including studies, piano competitions, debate competitions, and long-distance running competitions.
Her only shortcoming is probably that she can't become the number one star of the basketball team, which is determined by her talent.
Because of her stubborn and competitive character and aggressive demeanor, no one dared to bully her in Inglewood, a school dominated by blacks, but few pursued her.
But now, in the eyes of her good friend Martha, Wang Fuxi has changed from Scarlett in Gone with the Wind to Tess of the D'Urbervilles. Judging from her experience of dating three times at the age of 16, Wang Fuxi There must be a situation in the west.
"Don't talk nonsense! There's no such thing, I... I just... I'm going to meet a friend at noon, and he's coming from far away... I think... um..." Wang Fuxi's mind was obviously in a mess at this time, and she herself I don't know what to say.
"Hey, look, why are there so many people around the field?" Martha said suddenly at this moment.
Wang Fuxi took a look, and sure enough there were quite a few people around the basketball court not far away.
It's noon now, and there is still class in the afternoon. So many people gathered around the stadium can only mean one thing-someone is singled out.
"Chris, go and have a look."
"No, I have friends waiting for me."
"Chris~~Look, there's a tall guy over there, he seems to be Chinese!"
When Martha said this, Wang Fuxi seemed to have been shocked by an electric shock, so he hurried to look carefully.
Sure enough, there was a tall giant standing on the sidelines, wearing a woolen shirt, looking at the field seriously with his arms crossed.
At this time, on the field, there was no bullfighting contest, but a slam dunk contest.
It turned out that after Gan Guoyang taught the little male duck voice dunk, he thought that Wang Fuxi was about to leave school, so he was going to leave to find Wang Fuxi in Inglewood High School.
The little male duck voice who skipped class went to junior high school in Inglewood Middle School, and they were together in the junior high school, so they went back with Gan Guoyang.
As a result, when he arrived at the campus, Gan Guoyang discovered that someone was dunking on the basketball court, so he dragged the little male duck's voice to his death and asked him to play with the opponent.
In the basketball country of the United States, some students can dunk dunks as early as the ninth grade.
The slam dunk contest organized by students always attracts many people's attention.
"Relax! Take a deep breath and don't let other people fucking influence you! Trust me, you can do it, you'll be the best dunker in Inglewood!"
At this time, everyone else on the field had already finished their performances. Although their dunks seemed a little lacking in creativity in Gan Guoyang's view, after all, there was no dunk contest in 1982, and many concepts of dunks were still just "jumping high." , slammed into the "level. "
During the contact with the little male duck voice, Gan Guoyang discovered that this guy's jumping, flexibility, and waist and abdomen strength are all first-class.Except for his undeveloped body, weak bones, and lack of strength and explosiveness, all aspects have proved that this is a good seed for dunking.
Although Gan Guoyang's dunk value is only 50, Gan Guoyang, who can dunk the "dream dunk" that amazes everyone, has already understood that the most important thing about dunks is aesthetics.
No matter how high you jump, how powerful you are, how fancy your moves are, a dunk without aesthetics will never arouse the audience's admiration.
His three dunks can have that effect, one is because they are in the middle of the game, which is different from the feeling of purely performing dunks; the other is the sense of stagnation caused by Gan Guoyang's outstanding waist and abdomen strength, which is outstanding. The sense of stretch brought by flexibility, as well as the sense of control brought by the super-long wingspan and huge palm, make his dunk action full of athletic beauty.
Even if his bounce is not top-notch and his movements are not fancy, such a dunk in the game is absolutely breathtaking.
Now, although this little male duck voice is only 6 feet 1, he has better talent. Under the guidance of Gan Guoyang, he seems to have begun to find the true meaning of dunking.
"Go! Come on!"
Duckling also stood 20 feet away from the basket, began to dribble, run up, hold the ball, and take off!
Like a fully drawn bow and arrow, the little male duck's throat flew in the air, stretching his limbs with all his strength.
"Bah!"
In the air, the bow was stretched instantly, and the ball was dunked like a basket as quickly as a sharp arrow.
A powerful, but crisp two-handed dunk.
"Maybe-the-play-of-this-year..." Gan Guoyang murmured, he didn't expect that this guy could reach such a level after only practicing for one morning.
Before, it was like climbing a tree to dig out birds' eggs, but now it's like smashing Huashan Mountain.
This is a dunk genius.
The little male duck throat has long been surrounded by excited crowds, enjoying the idol treatment for the first time amidst the cheers.
"Forrest Gump?" A sweet and soft voice suddenly came from Gan Guoyang's ear.
"Fuxi." Gan Guoyang looked back and blurted out that it was Wang Fuxi.But he saw that Wang Fuxi's face was a little red again.
It seems to be too kind to call it that.
"Who is that boy?"
"Oh, my new apprentice, Harold Miner, is a dunk guy."
Harold Miner, the Inglewood kid, is the only reason he will be remembered in the future because of his two NBA slam dunk championship trophies in 1993 and 1995.
It may take some time to pick out a beautiful swan from a flock of big white geese, but it couldn't be easier to pick a white crane from a flock of chickens.
Although Gan Guoyang is a man of yellow race, Falk saw a unique talent in Gan Guoyang, a kind of superstar temperament.
This made him a little impatient, and before the game was over, he stepped forward and said loudly that he wanted to talk to Gan Guoyang.
Gan Guoyang ignored Falk, and unlike other street players who regarded Falk as a savior, Gan Guoyang didn't have much affection for this thin-haired, gloomy-faced Jew.
From his eyes, Gan Guoyang seemed to be able to see the cunning, trickery and greed contained in it.
Therefore, Gan Guoyang shook his head at him, indicating that the game would continue, and then ran back to the half court to defend.
However, apart from being cunning and greedy, Falke is the same as Gan Guoyang in a few points, that is, tenacity, aggressiveness, and will not give up until he reaches his goal.
This is inherited from his equally competitive and hardworking mother.
So, he patiently stayed on the sidelines, watching the 6-foot-10 center play the point guard position and play with those street fish.
At this time, Gan Guoyang is like a magician on the field. He constantly directs the running positions of his teammates on the field, and passes the ball accurately when the opportunity comes out.
If there is no chance, he will also rely on his personal ability to create opportunities, or use one or two passes to change the offensive situation on the field.
Even in the face of a group of street players whose strength is far inferior to his, even in a position he is not familiar with, Gan Guoyang's face is still so focused, as if he is fighting a key battle related to the victory or defeat of the series.
When his teammates score a goal, he will cheer loudly, comfort and encourage him after making a mistake, and shout and curse loudly during defense.
All teammates are listening to his command, and all spectators are paying attention to him.
Gan Guoyang became the focus of the field in 1 minute, the core of the team in 2 minutes, the leader of the team in 3 minutes, and led the temporary team to victory in 5 minutes.
This is the difference between stars and ordinary players.

But he did suffer from media injustice, and in the foreseeable future, this injustice will continue, just because he is a yellow man, a Chinese.
In the American sports world, the status of Chinese immigrants is even worse than that of Nigerians, and now a Nigerian star has already taken off in Space City.

Wang Fuxi didn't attend class well all morning.
Although it is approaching the end of the period, this will be the last semester of intensive study, and the 12th grade will start to think about applying to universities.
"Chris? What's wrong with you today? You've been in a daze all this time, Chris?" Chris is Wang Fuxi's English name. After school at noon, her good friend Martha asked.

"No, I have friends waiting for me."
"Chris~~Look, there's a tall guy over there, he seems to be Chinese!"
When Martha said this, Wang Fuxi seemed to have been shocked by an electric shock, so he hurried to look carefully.
Sure enough, there was a tall giant standing on the sidelines, wearing a woolen shirt, looking at the field seriously with his arms crossed.
At this time, on the field, there was no bullfighting contest, but a slam dunk contest.
It turned out that after Gan Guoyang taught the little male duck voice dunk, he thought that Wang Fuxi was about to leave school, so he was going to leave to find Wang Fuxi in Inglewood High School.
The little male duck voice who skipped class went to junior high school in Inglewood Middle School, and they were together in the junior high school, so they went back with Gan Guoyang.
As a result, when he arrived at the campus, Gan Guoyang discovered that someone was dunking on the basketball court, so he dragged the little male duck's voice to his death and asked him to play with the opponent.
In the basketball country of the United States, some students can dunk dunks as early as the ninth grade.
The slam dunk contest organized by students always attracts many people's attention.
"Relax! Take a deep breath and don't let other people fucking influence you! Trust me, you can do it, you'll be the best dunker in Inglewood!"
At this time, everyone else on the field had already finished their performances. Although their dunks seemed a little lacking in creativity in Gan Guoyang's view, after all, there was no dunk contest in 1982, and many concepts of dunks were still just "jumping high." , slammed into the "level. "
During the contact with the little male duck voice, Gan Guoyang discovered that this guy's jumping, flexibility, and waist and abdomen strength are all first-class.Except for his undeveloped body, weak bones, and lack of strength and explosiveness, all aspects have proved that this is a good seed for dunking.
Although Gan Guoyang's dunk value is only 50, Gan Guoyang, who can dunk the "dream dunk" that amazes everyone, has already understood that the most important thing about dunks is aesthetics.
No matter how high you jump, how powerful you are, how fancy your moves are, a dunk without aesthetics will never arouse the audience's admiration.
His three dunks can have that effect, one is because they are in the middle of the game, which is different from the feeling of purely performing dunks; the other is the sense of stagnation caused by Gan Guoyang's outstanding waist and abdomen strength, which is outstanding. The sense of stretch brought by flexibility, as well as the sense of control brought by the super-long wingspan and huge palm, make his dunk action full of athletic beauty.
Even if his bounce is not top-notch and his movements are not fancy, such a dunk in the game is absolutely breathtaking.
Now, although this little male duck voice is only 6 feet 1, he has better talent. Under the guidance of Gan Guoyang, he seems to have begun to find the true meaning of dunking.
"Go! Come on!"
Duckling also stood 20 feet away from the basket, began to dribble, run up, hold the ball, and take off!
Like a fully drawn bow and arrow, the little male duck's throat flew in the air, stretching his limbs with all his strength.
"Bah!"
In the air, the bow was stretched instantly, and the ball was dunked like a basket as quickly as a sharp arrow.
A powerful, but crisp two-handed dunk.
"Maybe-the-play-of-this-year..." Gan Guoyang murmured, he didn't expect that this guy could reach such a level after only practicing for one morning.
Before, it was like climbing a tree to dig out birds' eggs, but now it's like smashing Huashan Mountain.
This is a dunk genius.
The little male duck throat has long been surrounded by excited crowds, enjoying the idol treatment for the first time amidst the cheers.
"Forrest Gump?" A sweet and soft voice suddenly came from Gan Guoyang's ear.
"Fuxi." Gan Guoyang looked back and blurted out that it was Wang Fuxi.But he saw that Wang Fuxi's face was a little red again.
It seems to be too kind to call it that.
"Who is that boy?"
"Oh, my new apprentice, Harold Miner, is a dunk guy."
Harold Miner, the Inglewood kid, is the only reason he will be remembered in the future because of his two NBA slam dunk championship trophies in 1993 and 1995.
