037: Nate and Jones, very different endings(1/2)

Diaz's restaurant was very busy today. Many nearby residents and students from Ohio State University gathered here, and the place was full.

Of course, Diaz knows that his chef's cooking skills have not suddenly reached the level of a Michelin chef.

The reason why business is so good today is that Diaz spent a lot of money to add a projector to his small restaurant.

On a huge screen, he used this projector to play a live broadcast of the game between the Cowboys and the Huskies.

So, the business came like this.

Seeing the fans in front of him all wearing orange T-shirts and cheering for the Cowboys players, Diaz smiled happily.

Such is the economic benefits of basketball games and basketball stars that March Madness has given Diaz's diner a boost.

He couldn't even imagine how much LeBron James's dividends the owners of bars and restaurants in Cleveland had taken.

After all, Wayne and Tony are just student players and can already bring such huge economic benefits, let alone James.

Diaz was very happy, but not just because he made a lot of money.

He is also happy because of the basketball atmosphere he created.

A small restaurant located in Jingshui City was filled with shouts and cheers from fans.

Isn't this the scene Diaz has always imagined?

In the bustling restaurant, he chatted and laughed with the guests and cheered for the game.

This kind of scene is what Diaz has been dreaming about in the past few years but has never realized it.

And now, what Diaz was pursuing has finally become a reality.

"You also have to turn your dreams into reality, Wei!" Diaz also sat down and stared at the curtain intently.

At this time on the basketball court, Nate Robinson had already begun calling his teammates to set up screens.

Wayne looked at the dark little man outside the three-point line and suddenly remembered that he was only that tall in his previous life.

To be able to challenge the NBA with the height of an ordinary person, Wayne finds it incredible just thinking about it.

Speaking of which, it seems that the University of Washington is prone to producing short NBA players.

Currently there is Nate Robinson, and in the future there will be Isaiah Thomas.

If Thomas Jr. is the strongest on the planet, then Nate Robinson is the strongest on the planet.

After all, he is a basketball and rugby player. He hasn't even entered the professional league yet, but Xiaotuo's muscle lines are already very exaggerated.

In high school, Nate Robinson's main focus was football, and he finished high school on a football scholarship.

After entering college, Robinson's focus has always been on football. After each football training, he would practice basketball for an hour.

By the way, I will practice basketball for an additional hour and mark it down. This will be tested.

It's really annoying to compare people to each other.

If you practice basketball for an hour every day, you can start on the school team, be selected for the first team of the Pac-10 Conference, play in March Madness, and even enter the NBA in the future.

This kind of talent is simply terrifying!

John Lucas tried hard to get around the screen, but Nate Robinson broke through very quickly.

The moment he passed the screen of his teammates, he completely threw away John Lucas.

Wayne also immediately shrank to the basket, preparing to defend.

But Nate Robinson used a beautiful high throw to hit the layup, avoiding the blockage of Wayne's giant tower.

The basketball went hollow into the net, and Nate Robinson, who was 1.75 meters tall, easily made a layup in the crowd.

"Damn, what kind of starting speed is this." Wayne reluctantly picked up the basketball on the ground. The level of March Madness is different.

I used to play in the Big 12 League, take Roy Ivey of the University of Texas as an example.

If Roy Ivey had made a layup like the one just now, Wayne would have easily missed it.

But Nate Robinson is obviously not on the same level as Roy Ivey in terms of his timing for a layup or his control of the basketball.

This high-throw layup may seem simple, but it cannot be perfectly controlled without excellent touch.

In the future, Stephen Ritian Curry will dominate the NBA despite his thin body. In addition to his three-point accuracy, he is also excellent at high throws and layups.

This kind of layup can make up for the height disadvantage as much as possible, avoid physical contact as much as possible, and use the gentlest way to complete the breakthrough goal.

Robinson, who has not started playing basketball as a basketball player yet, is able to play like this as soon as he comes up, which really proves that he is extremely talented.

Needless to say, without strong soft talent, how could Nate Robinson enter the NBA despite his physical limitations?

The previous Wayne and Robinson were just the opposite. Wayne was a fortress of physical talent, but his softness was truly touching.

Therefore, those who can survive in the NBA for a long time, even if they are not superstars, are definitely the top few talents.

Nate Robinson stuck out his tongue after scoring a goal. Now he must think he is Michael Jordan.

"You should have dunked just now." After Robinson retreated to his own half, Bobby Jones, who was betting with him, kept shaking his head.

Seeing how easily Robinson had succeeded in a layup, Bobby Jones thought to himself that Wayne wasn't that strong after all.

If it were him, he would definitely dunk the ball and take away the $500.

"My throw was so high that I almost missed it. Are you sure you can dunk it directly?" Robinson spread his hands. The attack just now was not as easy as it looked.

"Hey, just watch it. It was you who missed the opportunity to win the $500, so don't blame me!"

Bobby Jones was ecstatic. Even Nate Robinson, who was 1.75 meters tall, could score a goal in the Cowboys penalty area. How could he, who was 2.01 meters tall, not dunk Wayne directly?

Besides, that Chinese guy is only five centimeters taller than me.

Although the opponent scored first, the Cowboys fans at the scene were still enthusiastic.

They clapped their hands rhythmically, stamped their feet, and sang songs.

This special college basketball atmosphere is something that the NBA does not have.

Tony Allen wanted to beat Roy alone as soon as he came up, but surprisingly, the No. 3 guard was more tenacious than Teacher Tony imagined.

Although Roy has not yet completed his evolution, his physique is already comparable to that of Tony Allen, a quasi-NBA player.

Facing a defender like Roy who could withstand his impact, Tony's rough offensive skills were immediately exposed.

He originally thought he could easily push away Roy and complete the layup, but in the end he could only force a layup without getting rid of Roy.

"Dang!"

Teacher Tony struck angrily, and superstar Tony became the defensive Tony that Wayne was familiar with.

"Tony missed the first shot, and Brandon Roy withstood the pressure very well. Believe me, when that kid participates in the draft again, he will not regret his decision to go to college."

The on-site commentators were full of praise for Roy. Generally speaking, the situation is now in favor of the University of Washington.

The Huskies protected the defensive rebound, and before halftime, Bobby Jones stretched out his arm to ask for the ball from his teammates.

This smooth attack and defense has completely excited Bobby Jones.

He feels like he can lead his team to the first upset of this March Madness tournament today!

Bobby Jones immediately sprinted at full speed after getting the ball. He was quite confident in his athletic ability.

But as he ran, Bobby Jones discovered something was wrong.

Damn...how can this guy named Graham run faster than me?

I'm the most athletic player in the Pac-10!

Graham didn't know what Bobby Jones was thinking, otherwise he would definitely reply: "This is a poor man's version of James, making a fool of himself!"

Rushing all the way to the three-point line, Bobby Jones was forced to stop by the stronger Graham.

Jones wanted to squeeze past Graham, but found that he couldn't get past him.

At that time, Jones' mentality collapsed.

Sure enough, in the NCAA arena, the most valuable thing is physical talent, and the least valuable thing is physical talent.

You said your athletic ability is abnormal? There are many people who are more abnormal than you.

Graham taught Bobby Jones the first lesson - don't think that the league champion is a pushover.

But Bobby Jones didn't intend to pass the ball. He was still obsessed with offense and the $500 bet.

So he followed Nate Robinson's example and called a screen.

After using the cover to break through, Bobby Jones sprinted with all his strength.

"Well, my performance when I faced Graham just now was just an accident. This time, no one can stop me!"

Jones told himself in his heart.

Wayne looked at Bobby Jones, who was rushing towards the penalty area, and was dumbfounded.

Dude, why are you so fat?

I need glasses for my bad eyesight. Didn’t you see a big living person like me standing in there?

Or is this Jones trying to imitate Nate Robinson and play a soft high-throw ball?
