Silently Writing
Chapter 20 Philadelphia Twins
21st, weather, sunny turning cloudy.
After meeting the players of the Ridley High School basketball team, Su Feng suddenly felt...
Kobe in high school was truly terrifying!
Because if Naifaliya was tofu dregs, then Lower Merion was at most a twisted melon...
But look at Ridley High School!
All tall guys!
In this team, the shortest of the starters is their point guard Goodman, who is 188 cm tall and weighs 81 kg.
The tallest is their center Larson, who is 201 cm tall and weighs 95 kg.
No wonder they have dominated Pennsylvania basketball for the past six years.
To be reasonable, on the Lower Merion side, apart from Kobe and Su Feng not losing out in their matchups, the other positions are basically completely crushed by Ridley High School.
"I was wondering why Tina looked so familiar before, it turns out she's the cheerleading captain?" Su Feng said, looking at Tina leading the dance on the court at the Lower Merion gymnasium.
"Yeah, since Tina joined the cheerleading squad, our squad's style has changed," Kobe said with emotion.
"Oh?" Kobe piqued Su Feng's gossipy nature again.
"Before, our cheerleading squad was all beauties... but Tina said that wasn't domineering enough. Look, now the cheerleading squad's dance style is like the New Zealanders doing the Maori war dance..." Kobe sighed.
Puchi.
Forgive Su Feng for almost laughing out loud.
"Su, look, that's Ridley High School's small forward, Williamson, also Ridley High School's ace.
He's very strong, but his shooting isn't that good. Oh, and if you're matched up against him, you have to be careful of his trash talk.
Last year when I was matched up against him, he just kept talking," Kobe said, patting Su Feng on the shoulder and pointing to a strong black player from Ridley High School.
Williamson is 193 cm tall and weighs 95 kg. It is said that his bench press is even better than many NBA players...
But after listening to Kobe's introduction, Su Feng felt that this person was not difficult to deal with.
Honestly, on the defensive end now, even if Carter jumped out, Su Feng wouldn't...
Well... maybe he still couldn't beat Carter.
Ahem, that's not important.
What's important is that in Su Feng's memory, this guy named Williamson never even played in the NBA. In Su Feng's opinion, he's been hammered by Kobe every day. If he's still afraid of other peers, then he's too cowardly.
Of course, while underestimating the opponent mentally, tactically, Su Feng has already planned how to deal with Williamson.
It's worth mentioning that after Su Feng joined Lower Merion, Kobe also applied to the team's coach, Gregg, just like in Su Feng's memory, to only play shooting guard for the rest of his high school career.
Because in American high schools, some players around 190 cm tall are arranged by the coach to play center, so Kobe has played all positions on the basketball court in his high school career.
But after deciding to launch an impact on the NBA, Kobe knew that his most suitable position after entering the NBA in the future would be shooting guard.
Therefore, Gregg did not refuse Kobe's application, because currently at the forward position, Gregg has a new 'tool man'.
"Su, don't force it, Williamson is not easy to deal with," Gregg specifically told Su Feng before the game started.
After all, although Su Feng had the experience of playing one-on-one with Kobe on the court before, the difference between Su Feng's current physique and Williamson's...
Was too big.
At the Lower Merion gymnasium, the students kept cheering for the school team players on the court. Many female students even shouted slogans like, if you win, I will do this and that...
Of course, Su Feng disdained such slogans.
After all, what's more fun than playing ball?
On the court, after warming up, the players from both sides stepped onto the court one after another. On the Lower Merion side, Kobe was still responsible for the jump ball.
There's no way... who told Kobe he could fly?
Just as Su Feng slowly walked to Williamson, suddenly, Williamson grinned at Su Feng and said, "Sick man of East Asia, I will definitely let you know what fear is today!"
Su Feng: "......"
Bro, it's already 4991, can't you change your lines when you talk trash?
East, east your mother's sick man, are you going to get a plaque for me to kick next?
Su Feng ignored Williamson, and Williamson felt that this yellow-skinned kid seemed to be afraid of him, so he continued, "Hehe, be careful later, I'm afraid I'll beat your brains out!"
Su Feng: "......"
Okay, Kobe didn't lie to me.
Before the game, in addition to telling Su Feng to be careful of Williamson's trash talk, Kobe also gave a friendly reminder: "This guy's trash talk level... is very bad."
Su Feng sighed helplessly, looked at Williamson and said, "Do you know who your father is?"
This time, Williamson was stunned...
Because his father disappeared before he was even born.
In the United States, many black scumbags are the type who leave after using someone and finding them ugly.
Actually, Su Feng just asked, but he didn't expect to actually stump Williamson.
So, Williams shook his head.
"How about this, seeing that you're so pitiful, I'll call you brother in the future, and you call me Dad, so you can feel what fatherly love is," Su Feng said to Williamson.
The English language is broad and profound. For a moment, Williamson didn't even understand what Su Feng meant.
But Swartz on the side understood and was happy like a 70 kg child.
Sure enough... he was the kind of player who sacrificed intelligence for talent.
Looking at Williamson, Su Feng was even more certain of his previous guess.
He decided to give Williamson a good lesson.
This lesson...
Is called "Back View".
Pa!
In the center circle, as Kobe won the jump ball against Larson, who couldn't jump at all, this highly anticipated focus battle began.
As early as before the game, Su Feng discovered that in addition to the NBA Philadelphia 76ers scouts who were present today, even the North Carolina scouts had come from afar...
Sure enough, the attention this game received was far from what the previous friendly match between Naifaliya and Lower Merion could compare to.
Lower Merion ball, in the frontcourt, Su Feng started running according to the number one tactic practiced in the past two days.
This number one tactic is not complicated. It is a classic tactic for shooters to run along the baseline and use the center's pick-and-roll to run out of open space.
Before the game, Su Feng had observed that although Williamson was as strong as an ox, his wingspan and bounce were very average.
Such players are not too fast.
So when Su Feng accelerated with all his strength, Williamson gradually couldn't keep up.
Although teammate Lassman didn't completely block Williamson when setting the screen, based on the current distance and Williamson's short arms, Su Feng didn't believe this guy could block him.
So, after running to the other side of the baseline, Su Feng received Swartz's pass!
Finally, after Su Feng arrived, the 'tool man' Swartz felt that his point guard career had ushered in spring!
Because he could finally show his overall view!
Su Feng received Swartz's pass and then fired.
Williamson desperately rushed towards Su Feng, because just now, he finally understood what Su Feng meant!
Damn it, this guy dares to take advantage of me!
However, just like Su Feng predicted, Williamson couldn't block him at all.
And this guy's brain capacity was limited. He didn't stop when he rushed over, so after Su Feng shot, he took the initiative to lean towards Williamson.
"Ouch!"
Swish——!
Beep——!
Combined with a scream of bullying, Su Feng started with a four-point play!
Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills.
The students at the Lower Merion gymnasium were stunned.
Damn it!
Good ball!
On the court, because Su Feng's performance was too realistic, even the referee stepped forward to warn Williamson to pay attention to his movements.
But...
Williamson was very wronged.
Because he really... didn't want to foul!
Kobe stepped forward to pull Su Feng up and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Su Feng spread his hands and pointed to Williamson, "Don't worry, you should worry about whether he will be okay."
Kobe smiled, as expected, he was the man he recognized.
Next, amidst the cheers of the students, Su Feng walked to the free throw line and made an extra free throw.
0 to 4!
On the sidelines, Gregg was very satisfied with the team's cooperation this time.
Because in Gregg's opinion, besides closing the door, spreading out, and letting Kobe play, he finally had another set of tactics.
Turning back, Williamson seemed very eager to get back at it, so he immediately went to the low post, and by the way, asked his teammate Larson, who was as tall as 201 cm, to roll to the baseline...
I have to say, this guy t
In the past, relying on brute force, Williamson could easily bully his peers.
But tonight, he met Su Feng.
A well-trained Iron Man!
On the court, Kobe flew to grab the rebound and launched a fast break himself.
Ridley High School's shooting guard was no match for Kobe, who was easily passed by Kobe. Then Kobe jumped high and directly made a gliding dunk!
0 to 6!
The atmosphere at Lower Merion High School gymnasium was instantly ignited by Su Feng and Kobe!
"Similar, too similar, really too similar." Wesley, a Duke University scout in the stands, said with emotion.
And not far from him, Leonard, a North Carolina scout, was also lamenting, "If you don't look at the uniforms, this offense just now is really like the Bulls' style back then."
On the court, Williamson, who was still unconvinced, was once again hit with a gray nose.
Because he was originally holding the ball outside the three-point line and preparing to force his way into the inside, but suddenly found that Su Feng took a few steps back, and...
Made a gesture of invitation to him!
"Damn it!"
At such a long distance, even if Williamson broke through with force, Su Feng could block him on his breakthrough route, and might even have a chance to create a charge.
But...
He had just asked his teammate to single him out.
This...
Williamson mustered his courage.
One step inside the three-point line, he pulled up for a jumpshot.
Then, there was no then.
Kobe grabbed the rebound, and Su Feng started sprinting forward at the same time.
Williamson couldn't get back on defense in time, and Su Feng, who had already run to the frontcourt, received Kobe's pass.
This time, Su Feng put all his strength into it, and at the take-off position where Kobe had been training him these past two days, he jumped decisively!
Clang——!
Although Su Feng's dunking ability, whether in terms of height or strength, was not comparable to Kobe's.
But Su Feng was still very excited!
Because this was the first time in his basketball career that he had completed a dunk in a formal game!
And, most importantly, a bad dunk is still a dunk!
"Nice dunk!" Seeing Su Feng complete a weak dunk, Kobe rushed directly towards Su Feng and gave each other a chest bump.
0 to 8.
Mills, a reporter from the Philadelphia Inquirer who came to the scene for an interview today, excitedly captured this scene.
Many years later, Mills would be grateful that he came to Lower Merion on this day.
Because... he took a very valuable photo.
"This is... the Philadelphia Double Guns!" Mills exclaimed.
And beside Mills, his colleague, Markson, a reporter from the Philadelphia Evening News, officially named the combination of Kobe and Su Feng, "No, we should call them the "Philadelphia Gemini"."
