He accidentally became the key player to turn around the unfavorable situation, and also hit two key free throws to help the team seal the victory. Li Ao was excited for a long time after the game, and he didn't calm down until he took a shower.

In the post-game interview, Granville was given the opportunity to coordinate the team's offense tonight, scoring 13 points and 11 assists, and was named the best player in the game.

After this game, Li Ao felt that Henry Bibby really had two tricks up his sleeve.

A group of high school players who were ranked outside the top 100 in the United States were trained by him to produce a lot of talented players.

Granville was also unknown in high school. He was a little over 1.7 meters tall. Although he had speed, he couldn't bounce well or had explosive power. He didn't have a long shot, but Henry Bibby took advantage of his strengths and removed him from the bench.

After being pulled out, he quickly became a unique point guard. By his sophomore year, he had become one of the top point guards in the entire NCAA.

As for the Bruins team opposite, although they are strong, that group of people were already very strong when they entered college.

After the Bruins won their 11th national championship in team history in 1995, they changed their head coach in 1996. After that, things went from bad to worse in the past few years, and they were purely relying on the legacy of their ancestors.

But it has to be said that Zu Shangkuo is good, and they tried their best to narrowly defeat the opponent.

Not thinking about this anymore, Li Ao turned on the system, and what was displayed on the screen was the prompt at the end of the game just now.

"Congratulations to the host for helping the team defeat the Bruins. Victory reward: 200 achievement points. Host data: 6 points, 2 assists and 1 steal. Total reward: 70 achievement points.

"The host has made his college career debut. Based on his performance throughout the game, the system has determined that the host is a key player in this game. Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Killer (Consumption Card)

Killer (Consumption Card): Can be used when the remaining time in the game is within 30 seconds. After use, the host's all-round shooting ability for the remaining time in the game is 10, and it can designate a shot to feel hot. If a free throw is designated, the host will take a free throw that time.

All free throws from the line are hot."

This reward is so cool!

He was so excited that he played a set of Tieshankao that he had been practicing for two and a half years.

Fortunately, his teammates showered quickly and left after sweating, otherwise others would have thought he had a seizure.

After winning the game, I don’t know how many flesh and blood are waiting outside. Those teammates who have just passed their adolescence and have nowhere to vent their energy are now wandering around somewhere.

But the key player... He looked at his comprehensive evaluation and found that he still needs to work hard if he wants to truly become a key player!

After a game, as long as you play, you will get some achievement points. He originally had no particular obsession with whether he could play immediately, but now he is full of desire to play and is ready to actively strive for it.

…

After taking a shower, he came to the parking lot and found the car with double flashes. He went up and knocked on the car window. The other party unlocked the door. He opened the door and got in.

Li Ao was not envious at all when his teammates were seduced by the flesh and blood. No, he also had a beautiful aunt waiting for him to come home.

Liam, on his side, hurried home after watching the game. His family has strict upbringing.

Although this person is usually wild and uninhibited, he really listens to his mother in this regard, otherwise he will lose his money to pick up girls.

Vivian started the engine and complained: "Your teammates left ten minutes ago, why are you so slow?"

Li Ao scratched his head and responded like a good baby: "Hey, I spent a little more time bathing."

"It seems that your mysophobia can't be changed. It's still like this in the school team... Forget it, since you played so well tonight, I forgive you, but I didn't expect that you are already so good. You were going to lose.

As soon as you came on, you led us to defeat the Bruins. You were so handsome that I almost lost my voice."

"That's right, I'm a genius..." Li Ao hesitated and said calmly: "But it's not all my fault. It's just that my height and wingspan are good, and I can restrain Kapono. During the previous training

When I guard Brian, I know that I am good at this kind of defense. I am not good at team defense. I need the inside to help me guard my back. I can't do much on the offensive end. My shooting is unstable and my passing and control skills are not good. Tonight

It was my first time playing an official game, and my opponent didn’t understand me and looked down upon me, so I had those few scoring opportunities.”

Vivian likes Li Ao very much because he is easy to talk but also very powerful. She encouraged: "You played a role in turning the situation around. This is a fact. You performed like this the first time you played. You will definitely do it in the future."

better!"

"With your good words, I hope this game will give me more opportunities. By the way, Aunt Vivian, stop at the burger shop on Wutong Street. I'll buy two burgers."

"Are you hungry? That's right. I heard that your nutritious meals are very unpalatable. No, I'll make a call..." Vivian parked the car on the side of the road, took out her mobile phone and dialed the number: "Hello, yes.

, it’s me, help me prepare dinner for three people and deliver it to my apartment, okay, thank you.”

Li Ao asked: "Is there anyone else coming to your house?"

"No, it's just the two of us."

"Then why order three portions?"

"You eat one portion and I eat two portions. I'm hungry after watching the game and shouting for so long."

"..."

Half an hour later, the two returned to the apartment, and soon a table of dishes was delivered to them from the restaurant.

Li Ao used the body's physical therapy function. After high-intensity exercise, the physical discomfort subsided, and he felt hungry, so he ate a big meal.

This time he and Vivian finally had a 50-50 split. They both basically ate half of the food on the table.

As a freeloader, Li Ao tidied up the dining table and cleaned up the restaurant before leaving.

Back in his small suite, Li Ao turned on his computer and browsed the school forums online.

The regular season of the NCAA Basketball Division has begun. As he expected, the forum is full of posts discussing tonight's game, just like last year at this time.

Although it is an on-campus forum, almost no one here discusses study-related matters seriously.

However, he was not interested in NCAA games last year. When Chinese students arrive in the United States, they are often not very interested in college sports at the beginning. Sports such as basketball, rugby, and baseball are all highly commercialized commercial leagues, such as the NBA.

, NFL, etc.

It was only after he stayed in the United States for more than half a year that he realized that in a region, college games usually attract more attention than commercial club games.

Of course, among the four major leagues, a team may not be as popular in a region as the local university, but their fans can be spread across the entire state, or even the United States. The bases are so different that the total number of fans is definitely incomparable.

He glanced at the most discussed posts, and there were actually several related to him!

He opened the post excitedly...

What he saw was different from what he thought.

There is no such thing as becoming famous all over the world with one goal, changing one's image with one battle, rising as a genius, surprising everyone... nothing.

However, most alumni's evaluation of his game was quite objective. Some said that he had the courage to come on temporarily and take decisive shots; others said that he affected the team's defense; and some said that at least he could defend alone. Without him,

Putting Sam Clancy or Brunson Wahl on defense would make Kapono even more powerful...

After all, he only played 8 minutes, and his defensive performance was indeed mixed. His offensive performance was outstanding, and he played five or six rounds in total.

But he estimated that if it were an American athlete, preferably a white man, he would definitely be blown away.

There were also some people who specifically dissed him because they saw that he wasn't used to it. There were some who helped him, but not many. He looked at it for a while and got angry, so he turned off the computer.

He wasn't surprised by this, after all, his 'initial reputation' was indeed a bit bad, and the school bullies didn't have as much trouble as him.

Fortunately, someone said he was handsome, which soothed his wounded heart.

The next day, Li Ao borrowed the hospital assistant's aunt's car early in the morning and came to the Memorial Stadium.

The Thanksgiving holiday is here, and during the 4-day break, Vivian got up earlier than him today and wanted to go back to San Francisco to spend the holiday with her family.

But he is not ready to rest and wants to train hard and improve a little bit.

As for the team, it was already a holiday at this time, but there was no real holiday for the service industry. On Thanksgiving Day, there were large-scale events to be held at the Memorial Stadium, and the business district inside was even more lively than usual.

He went to the property manager to get the keys, and the property manager who looked at the keys knew that he was the new guy who helped the team win last night, so he pulled him to brag about it for a while.

It was not easy for a stranger to praise him to his face. Li Ao also liked to chat, so he chatted with the old man for a while. It turned out that this old man also graduated from the University of Southern California. He was also a member of the school team back then and claimed to have been the main force.

It's hard to say how much moisture there is.

But he didn't expose it, and just followed the nonsense, saying that he only needed to practice for two and a half years, and he could dominate the invincible players in the basketball world...

It was not easy to meet an old man who spoke so nicely. Li Ao really wanted to chat a few more words, but he had no choice but to practice extra today, so he could only say goodbye to the old man and go to the training ground to warm up.

Although he only played 8 minutes in last night's game, his enthusiasm for basketball was as high as ever!

He didn't know that he actually liked the feeling of being in the spotlight and enjoying the cheers so much.

Especially when he stood on the free throw line at the last moment and 20,000 people cheered for him, he still wanted that feeling!

The training he chose today is still mid-range shooting, plus some ball handling and passing. He can practice these trainings without anyone's guidance or the help of a trainer.

As for the shooting training task, he has asked the old man to help serve, and the other party agreed without hesitation.

Defense is no longer good. He has gone beyond the initial simple steps, position movement and other training, and it is time to need trainers and auxiliary equipment, or one-on-one, team training, in order to improve more effectively.

He is still practicing the most basic things, which is simply getting twice the result with half the effort. Maybe he is not as good as lifting iron.

But he has no need to improve his strength now. He knows that his current strength on the defensive end is to restrain players with outside shooting skills, and this cannot be taken away.

The Li Ao before had a system and wanted to try a new way of life. Although he was very enthusiastic and devoted, it was completely different from now. The purpose of his training now is simpler and purer, and he is more able to learn from it.

Gaining happiness from training is like practicing Yasuo’s skills, you will be so happy...

The day passed quickly, and the winter day always passed quickly. In the evening, the sky was getting dark, and the door of the Trojans basketball team office at the Memorial Stadium opened. Henry Bibby thumped his waist and studied the tactics for a day.

I'm going to be exhausted, I have to go home and have a good sleep.

Colleagues are all on vacation, but he can't. There are two games next week. The opponents are the Arizona State University Sun Devils and the University of Oregon Dukes.
To be continued...
