The confrontation between Chen Xing and Gan Guoyang was a complete one-sided massacre.
Even if Chen Xing, who is 1.7cm tall, is very skilled, he cannot make up for the huge gap in height and body shape.
And this cousin is not like "playing basketball for the first time" as Gan Guohui said at all.
Although his skills seemed rough, his dribbling was not stable enough, and he did not show the ability to shoot, Chen Xing simply couldn't handle the push he made just by dribbling.
He is tall but not clumsy, and has tremendous strength.
The collision with him was like being hit by a car. After falling down twice, Chen Xing no longer dared to confront Gan Guoyang head-on.
When the offense and defense were changing positions, Gan Guoyang followed Chen Xing's every attack, and then treated him to several meals of Chongqing old hot pot.
"No way, no way! Hit me, mother, I'm going to be knocked apart, just hit me to death! You two deserve it, lie to me? Is this your first time playing basketball? No. It’s time to play, give me the ball, I want to go home!”
"It doesn't matter whether you play or not. It was 5:0 just now. The cassette is still $35, so you can't lose a point."
Chen Xing and Gan Guohui had another round of bargaining over the price of the cassette, derogating and personally attacking each other.
Gan Guoyang suddenly said: "Hey, this is really my first time playing ball. I'm not lying."
After hearing Gan Guoyang's words, Chen Xing felt even more insulted.
However, teenagers quickly accepted the reality that "hard work is not as good as talent".
They continued to play bang bang bang on the roof.
After Gan Guoyang tried too hard for the first shot, his hit rate became higher and higher as he tried more and more times.
Later, when his shooting was accurate to a certain extent, Chen Xing and Gan Guohui watched from the sidelines, counting the number of consecutive hits for him.
"17, 18, 19...20, 2 wow, missed! Hit 20 consecutive mid-range shots!"
Not only is Gan Guoyang's shooting accurate, his physical fitness is endless.
Chen Xing and Gan Guohui were tired and sat on the wire fence to drink water, while Gan Guoyang continued to dribble, layup, and shoot alone, and was extremely serious, as if he was testing his own technical level.
His skills are growing and plumping at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
"Hey Fat Hui, I didn't believe in geniuses before, but now I do."
"Seriously, have you hired a personal trainer to help you? Otherwise, how could you have made such great progress?"
"Yes, yes, I participated in coach Frank Alok's 'Excel in basketball summer camp' for two weeks, and the results are obvious."
"Holy crap, you actually attended a basketball summer camp? You're a despicable villain. How much does it cost?"
Chen Xing gestured, and Gan Guohui shook his head: "One hundred and fifty dollars? Oh, no wonder you can't afford to buy cassettes. It turns out that you used it to attend the training camp. What are you talking about? Go to the training camp properly. , do you think you can get a basketball scholarship?"
"You know shit, the school is going to form a basketball team next semester, do you know?"
"Huh? Our shabby school is going to have a basketball team? Let me help you shine your shoes. Where did you get the news?"
"My information is always accurate..."
The two were chatting when suddenly there was a loud noise, and they looked up in fright:
The basket that was originally hanging on the barbed wire was now held in Gan Guoyang's hand.
"Uh... I just dunked too hard and pulled the rim off."
------------------
Because Gan Guoyang destroyed the basket on the rooftop court, he had to go to Cameron House to volunteer in the next two days, doing some cleaning, distributing food, and repairing tables, chairs, and benches. Otherwise, they would not be allowed to play games in the future.
Gan Guoyang was very happy. After finishing his work, he could dribble and shoot with the ball on the roof, but he didn't dare to dunk again.
The basket made of iron wires tied to a steel pipe couldn't withstand his huge force.
Through these two days of practice, Gan Guoyang confirmed that his body had indeed inherited the initial talent of Gump in 2k11.
Accurate jump shots, strong physical strength, and excellent shot-blocking and defensive abilities - it is impossible for Gan Guohui and Chen Xing to score in front of him.
Now that he has this talent foundation, how to quickly start his basketball career is the top priority for Gan Guoyang.
He is 16 years old this year and is a sophomore in high school in China. He will be a senior in high school in San Francisco for another year before he can apply for college.
Gan Youwei's plan is for Gan Guoyang to attend community college for two years, learn some basic skills in restaurants and kitchens, and inherit his own mantle and the inheritance of Gan's cuisine in the future.
Of course Gan Guoyang doesn't want to deal with Youyanjiangvine for the rest of his life, but if he takes the basketball path, 16 is already very old in the United States.
Many talented players start as early as seven or eight years old, and some start receiving formal basketball training as late as around 10 years old. By the age of 13, some geniuses have already emerged.
At the age of 16, some players are already famous in the United States and are being competed by famous basketball schools to lay the foundation for entering the professional basketball world.
Gan Guoyang knows that he has good talent and foundation. In a short period of time, he must improve his skills as much as possible and find a way to that stage.
"Hey, Chen Xing, how should I sign up for that basketball training camp?"
During the break, Gan Guoyang asked Chen Xing about the "Excel in basketball" training camp.
"This training camp was just opened this year, in Auckland. From June to August, it is held every two weeks, eight days each time. From 9:30 am to 2:30 pm. If you want to sign up, call this phone number."
With that said, Chen Xing handed Gan Guoyang a business card, which said "Bobby Berman", the assistant coach of the training camp.
"However, you have to save 150 US dollars for tuition first, which is not cheap. You can ask Fat Hui to support you a little."
"Hey, I recently sold cassettes and saved a total of 72 US dollars. I will give it all to you. You are our hope."
Gan Guohui did not hesitate to take out all his pocket money from his pocket and give it to Gan Guoyang for training camp tuition.
Although basketball is not the number one sport in the United States, it is absolutely ubiquitous in American cities, and street courts can be found everywhere.
But the streets are mostly dominated by black players, and yellow-skinned Asians are thought to stay in school instead of playing on the court.
Talented Chinese like Gan Guoyang are rare. Both Chen Xing and Gan Guohui believe that Gan Guoyang will be the star of hope in Chinatown.
According to reliable information from Chen Xing, Beiqiao Middle School in Chinatown will form a basketball team next semester to participate in the expanded CIF California High School Basketball League for the new season.
If Gan Guoyang can join the team, it will definitely be a huge help to the school and the community.
However, Gan Guoyang rejected Gan Guohui's sponsorship.
"Forget it, it's not easy for you to save some pocket money. I still have time, so I can save some money by myself. For example...can I make money playing basketball?"
"Of course you can play ball, but it is a paid game, and you need to have a stake. A game ranges from 10 to 50 US dollars, and you win and you lose. Besides, you need to form a team."
"It's easy to form a team. There are three of us in a team and we can win $150. It shouldn't be that difficult, right?"
