The outside voices angered Chris Paul, but he did not bring his emotions to the court. He was still the smart and steady CP3.
As the preseason entered December, Wake Forest University's winning streak did not stop, easily winning 3 consecutive victories, extending the winning streak to 10 games per game.
In these three games, Su Bei tried to play shooting guard and Kyrie Arthur or small forward and Justin Gray as the starter, and still maintained a stable and excellent performance.
After all, Chris Paul's cake-making ability is so strong that it would be more difficult for Su Bei to spit out the cake than not to spit it out.
…
“The next game we play is the University of Texas Longhorns.
A strong team in the Big 12 Division and a regular in the NCAA finals.
Made it to the Sweet Sixteen like we did last season.
They are 7-3 in the preseason, and that's because they have two first-year players in the starting lineup.
We are currently on a winning record and the Longhorns are definitely a tough opponent to take lightly. "
Prosser said as he asked the assistant coach to distribute the player information of the University of Texas to the players in a targeted manner.
"This is the intelligence information of the Longhorns. Please understand it in advance. The next game will not be so easy."
Su Bei got his information and before he looked down, Chris Paul next to him spoke automatically.
"Su, don't look any further. Your opponent should undoubtedly be PJ Tucker."
"PJ Tucker?"
Su Bei suddenly realized and smiled suddenly. "The friend you know, it's really a fateful battle!"
“Perhaps it should be called the Battle of Revenge!
He almost came to Wake Forest University. That guy originally made an appointment with me to play at the same school, but unfortunately, he was a thorn in the side and the school looked down on him. Then, here you are. "Playing against Texas State University, Chris Paul was a little emotional.
"That's really a narrow road between enemies." Su Bei replied.
Chris Paul took one look at Su Bei and automatically sold his friend PJ Tucker, all for the sake of winning.
"That guy PJ, his idol is Larry Johnson, he plays very aggressively.
You have to be careful about how he uses his body to force himself. He can only score at the basket, but he can't shoot or pass, and his guard skills are not good, but he is very strong..."
Chris Paul paused for a moment to comment.
"Well, you can think of him not as a basketball player, but as a football player."
"Well, that would be hard to guard against!" Su Bei was a little surprised.
PJ Tucker, to be honest, Su Bei still knows that he is a 3D player.
Strong defensively, he can shoot three-pointers, pick-and-rolls, screens, switch defenses, rebounds... He can do all the dirty work, but his shortcoming is that he is too short.
Anyway, like Bonchi Wells, he has an outside body and plays inside.
It's just... that was the situation when P.J. Tucker was in the NBA. Su Bei really didn't know about Tucker in college.
In the next few days, Su Bei carried out a strategy. While watching PJ Tucker's game video, he conducted actual combat drills under the guidance of Chris Paul.
…
Frank Oke Center, home of the University of Texas Longhorns.
The sky above the arena was empty except for one retired jersey.
Back number 11.
Jersey worn by TJ Ford.
In the 2002/03 season, it was under the leadership of Ford that the Longhorns reached the NCAA Final Four again after 56 years.
Ford then brought his talent to the NBA and was picked by the Bucks with the 8th overall pick in the first round. Now he is the most famous NBA star of the Longhorns.
Of course, in a few years, the most famous name will be immediately destroyed.
If nothing else happens, the University of Texas will welcome Kevin Durant, the second player in the league who "joins if you can't beat him" in 2006. His pioneering work is similar to that of Dasha, the founder of "The Gambler" who surrendered and lost half of the money. The same, equally divided.
They are all talented people and they speak very nicely.
At this time, the entire arena was packed with seats, and it was like a sea of people.
As soon as Su Bei stepped into the stadium, he immediately felt the 'Western Cowboy'-like enthusiasm of the fans here.
With the top three Texas teams and three NBA teams, the basketball atmosphere here is very strong.
"Hi Chris, long time no see..."
When Su Bei was bombarded by the fans at the scene, beside him, PJ Tucker, the host, found Chris Paul, came over to say hello, and had a serious chat about a few cents.
It’s nothing more than harsh words.
Wake Forest University starts with center Rick Williams, power forward Chris Ellis, small forward Kevin Arthur, shooting guard Su Bei, and point guard Chris Paul.
The University of Texas starts with center Cress Wind, power forward LaMarcus Aldridge, small forward Iron Manny, shooting guard P.J. Tucker, and point guard Daniel Gibson.
The game begins.
"Aldridge beat Eric Williams on a jump ball to get Texan's first down."
"Daniel Gibson, he dribbled past people, he couldn't get past Chris Paul, he shot..."
Bang-dang——!
The basketball missed the target. Kriegwind grabbed the offensive rebound and made a second attack to make up the basketball.
0 to 2.
Daniel Gibson took a deep look at Chris Paul, and he breathed a sigh of relief as his teammate made a tip-in.
He was really surprised by the length of Chris Paul's wingspan, which was just 1.80 meters.
His eyes were covered with his palms.
PJ Tucker mentioned Chris Paul's defensive ability to him, and he also watched the opponent's game video.
He had tried his best to overestimate Chris Paul's defense, but unexpectedly, he still underestimated it.
Rick Barthes applauded from the sidelines.
"Keep fighting like this..."
On the field, Wake Forest offensive possessions.
In the first round, Su Bei did not play any tricks. He played a pick-and-roll tactic with Chris Paul, received the basketball, raised his hand and hit a three-point jumper.
Swish——!
3 to 2.
"The University of Texas' defense is a little tight. Su Bei's three-pointer cannot be missed." Blake Jack, as an NBC radio commentator, is not the first time to commentate on Wake Forest University's game.
He touched his face. If it weren't for the commentator's need for thick face and double standards, he would feel the heat of being slapped in the face.
Off the court, Prosser also rushed to the sidelines to encourage Su Bei's shooting.
"By the way, don't be afraid of missing the shot. If they continue to shrink inside, shoot him to death..."
When the University of Texas attacked, Gibson controlled the ball to the frontcourt, found PJ Tucker and immediately passed the ball.
After catching the ball and turning around, Tucker feinted and immediately used his body to force a breakthrough.
Bang——!
With just the first physical contact, Su Bei felt the pressure.
His strength reached B+, and Su Bei was sure that Tucker's strength was A-level.
He is 1.96 meters tall and weighs 108 kilograms. As a defender, he has never thought about playing basketball seriously.
This is playing rugby!
Fortunately, Su Bei blocked it with all his strength, fought and retreated, and waited until Chris Paul assisted in defense and Ekri Williams surrounded him.
"PJ Tucker has no passing ability, and his dribbling ability is not good either. He chooses... to be tough.
Forced layup..."
