Chapter 53 No one is optimistic
. "They are not strong enough to be invincible. They are just as self-righteous little guys as you. They will be afraid and they will retreat. The key to the game lies in their beliefs. If you feel that you can't win before you go on the court, then I tell you that you will definitely lose. There is a more important game in your heart, and your biggest enemy is yourself!"
Leto almost yelled his last sentence.
"This is the opponent's home court. They have countless fans and countless girls cheering for them. No one expects you to win the game. All scouts are watching their opponents and waiting for them to perform wonderfully. All the media's attention is focused on them. They are all the pride of heaven. You have nothing. You are destined to be a foil. Your destiny has long been destined!"
"No! Never!" Leto was excited and jumped onto the table and shouted, "Destroy their dinner party, snatch their women, kick their harshly, draw all your attention to you, you have nothing, but you are fearless, there is nothing impossible in this world!"
If Leto was Chinese, he would definitely yell out, "Would you rather have a charity in the kings, princes, generals and ministers?"
"No! Never!" Mayer High School team's locker room roared in unison, frightening the staff passing by. Almost all the team members seemed to be spewing out of fire. Everyone was panting, even their steps became heavy, and they rushed out and stepped onto the stadium!
After all, he is still a young and energetic boy. Although he knew in advance that coach Leto was inciting the players' emotions, Yang Xiao still couldn't help but feel his blood boiling. He seemed to feel that his whole body was burning. His eyes passed through the crowd and stared at Okafu in another rest area on the sidelines.
Okafor felt someone staring at him. He raised his head and saw Yang Xiao opposite him and smiled. He still had some impression of this kid. He was a typical high school player. He was talented but didn't know how to play it. He didn't need to spend too much effort to deal with it. Judging from his appearance, he still had to play in today's game. Indeed, the last game must have a lot of excitement for this kid.
"Hello everyone, welcome to espn. This is a high school basketball game broadcast for you in Las Vegas. Although I am disdainful of this kind of game, since it has been arranged, let's take a look, in this boring long grass period." espn's commentator Mike Donald said weakly, beside him was the commentator Albert.
"Oh, let me see the roster. I don't know if there are any people worthy of our attention to this evening." Albert was obviously not very interested, and flipped through the roster in his hand. Obviously he didn't even prepare, saying, "By the way, I know Okafor, this kid is good, but I think he still gives me too docile. Everyone says he is a good kid, but I have to say that basketball is not a good kid's sport, although Mr. Stern may object to my point of view."
"Oh, there is a Chinese in Mayer High School, and she is a center!" Mike suddenly shouted, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. He is a Chinese. It's hard to imagine when did you hear that yellow people can play basketball?"
Albert laughed a few times and said, "Mac, I have to remind you that you have crossed the line and this show will be complained. Haven't you heard of Yao Ming? That's a tall and big guy. Many people predict that he will be the next Sabonis, and he should be in the draft next year."
"I apologize for my words." Although Mike Donald apologized, he could not hear the apology in his tone. "But let's watch the live video. This kid is not tall and not strong, and he is actually going to face Okafor. I have to say that this may be a disaster."
"I agree with that," Albert said. "This is an exhibition game, this is Emecca Okafo's performance stage alone. The game tonight is very important to him. He is not playing against his opponent, but with himself. His performance today may determine which place he will be selected in the draft."
"Agree, Okafor's level has exceeded the level of high school students," said McDonald.
If Jim Leto heard this conversation, at least one bloody violence would be inevitable.
The DJ at the scene introduced the players from both sides one by one. When the members of Mayer High School appeared, the cheers were sparse. Only a few people cheered a few times in the corner, and there were even questions like "These guys are so ugly", "There are even yellow-skinned guys", "How long can they resist is the biggest question", which made the members of Mayer High School team burst into anger.
When the Lincoln High School players appeared, the atmosphere was completely different. After all, it was a local team and was more popular. The audience almost supported the Lincoln High School basketball team one-sidedly. Although it was a game held in public, it was actually equivalent to Lincoln High School’s home court.
Yang Xiao only felt that everyone seemed to be enemies of the Mayer high school basketball team, which aroused his fighting spirit. Just as Leto said, since everyone does not support them and does not like them, then be a messy monkey.
The referee's whistle rang, and Yang Xiao won the jump ball, and the audience couldn't help but exclaim. Many people saw Yang Xiao's performance for the first time. When he was much shorter than Okafu, he actually danced higher than Okafu, and his physical fitness was indeed very amazing.
"This kid can really dance. I have never seen Chinese people jump so well." Even Albert exclaimed, saying, "Maybe he can give us a surprise today."
"Come on, there are so many guys in the United States who have good jumping ability. This is nothing strange." The commentator's partner Mike couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water.
Okafu's mood did not fluctuate at all. He had already had experience in confronting Yang Xiao. He was mentally prepared for this kid's athletic ability. Just as Mike said, Okafu has met many guys with excellent physical fitness, but in the end he lost to his men. Basketball is not a high jump or a sprint, but a sport that combines all factors together. Okafu is a typical representative of combining all the favorable factors.
Yang Xiao transferred the ball to Richardson, and he had quickly ran to the opponent's penalty area. Richardson dribbled the ball, while other players of Mayer High School have advanced quickly. In terms of outside strength, Mayer High School recognized second in Nevada, and absolutely no other team dared to recognize first.
The mayer high school team's playing style has not changed at all. The rash change of the playing style will only make these high school students with weak tactical execution at a loss. After the ball was passed several times, it was handed over to Wood. Lincoln High School set up a mobile player Mayweather who was purely defensive and had almost no offensive ability against Okafor to protect it. This restricted the prestigious Wood, who usually faced other teams, and this move was very difficult. Of course, it was also a tactic based on Okafor's strong personal strength. Only when Okafor could provide enough protection in the inside line, Mayweather dared to go out to defend Wood unscrupulously. Even if Wood broke through, Okafor was still defending the inside line. The one who impressed Okafor's hot pot banquet the most was undoubtedly Wood.
