Chapter 105 School Derby
After this game, Neil's reputation in this high school suddenly soared. Everywhere on the campus, people commented: "That black kid named Neil teased Wells so much that he couldn't find his way today. , We are also very funny, Wells uttered such wild words before the game, I didn't expect to be abused like that by a freshman in high school, hey..."

Because of this match, I had been thinking of bullying Neil's roommates before, and I also felt that the kid was not easy to mess with, so I should be more polite to him in the future.

Not only did Wells not find his own problems from this game, but he went to find the recognized football champion of the school before Neil came. He just said that he is a senior in high school this year, and he is also on the school team. His name is Derby.

Derby is a tall, muscular, dark-skinned mixture of whites and blacks. He often has a bald head and wears a sweater.

Wells came to find him. Instead of trying to help Wells, he reprimanded him: "You think I didn't watch your whole game? You are so bad, I can only use one word To describe you, that is 'stupid'. After being shaken down by him for the first time, he was completely confused. But then again, in terms of ball skills and physical fitness, that kid is above you, and he beat you. Only use a small part of extraordinary skills, don’t ostentatiously go around in the future, keep a low profile, and train steadily.”

Wells was suffering and couldn't tell, so he had to lower his head and hold back his breath for a while and asked again: "Then as a friend, won't you help me vent my anger?"

"Wells, let me show my anger for you. I will meet him tomorrow. This is Mr. Ryan Kawhi's plan. It happens every year. No one can control it. Just like you played against me last year. What the team has to go through, now, I thought we were the top two basketball masters in this high school, but I didn’t expect you to lose today to a kid who has never heard of it before, you are enough.”

"Brother, you can't blame me for everything today, not you, who is to blame? You like to fight alone, you like to fight against that kid, but you can't win. In the end, your teammates are speechless to you. If you don’t give the ball if you ask for it, they just get lazy.”

"It's my fault, brother, no matter what, you will avenge me tomorrow."

"I will do my best, because if I lose again, then don't stay here in the future, we are all inferior to others, but for the sake of my reputation and status in the affiliated high school, I will definitely let that kid try my Derby sharp."

"Yes, brother! That's it."

"That being said, that kid is not a fuel-efficient lamp. His basketball talent is different from ordinary people, his physical fitness is quite good, his body is flexible, and his steps are quite coordinated."

"I can see this too, but he is really not your opponent, besides you are more than 20 meters taller than him."

"Sometimes I say you are stupid, but you are still not convinced. The decisive factor in playing is not the height, but the speed of movement and skill, you know?"

"Understand..."

"Hey, you go back first! Go to the gymnasium tomorrow and see how I deal with that kid." Derby shook his head a little disappointed in Wells and said.

"Yes, boss!"

"Remember what to do in the future and take your head with you." Derby said in a tone that seemed to be hurt and kindly reminded.

"Okay, boss!"

After Wells finished speaking, he smiled at Derby and left.

As soon as Wells walked away, Derby ran over to his brothers and said: "This Wells is such a fool. He can't beat that kid and wants me to take revenge. Sometimes he really forgets me. The principle of dealing with people, if you can’t beat others, it means that others have something that I don’t have, and I should learn from others humbly, instead of just thinking about losing face and trying to save my dignity, and in the end, I will lose even more dignity.”

"Boss, it doesn't matter if you don't mention someone like him. To put it bluntly, he is an imbecile who can play and has no golf intelligence." Derby's buddies also commented on Wells with such contemptuous and sarcastic words to comfort Derby.

Derby nodded and looked at the sky. The sun had completely set in the west, and it would be dark soon. He suddenly wanted to play, so he looked at his buddies and said, "I haven't played for a month, and I miss the stadium a bit. We will play tonight." How about going to the ballpark?"

"Okay, boss, we want to fight too."

"Hurry up, go back and change your equipment."

After the game, Neil asked Mr. Ryan Kawhi why he was placed on the bench again and why he had to play against Wells.

His mentor answered him this way, because he would not have the right to the ball and would be discriminated against by his teammates when he was the starter, so only when the score was behind, the teammates would only think about chasing points and put aside racial discrimination. He observed this period of time off the court, so that he can fully understand Wells' strength and pay attention to his best moves, so that he can do better on both ends of the offense and defense.

After Neil heard what his teacher said, he felt extremely moved. He never expected Mr. Ryan Kawhi to be so distracted.

In the end, Ryan Kawhi also kindly reminded him to prepare him mentally. The battle tomorrow might not be as easy as he thought, because tomorrow he will be facing the top of the high school -- Derby.

Moreover, after Mr. Ryan Kawhi went back, he asked the relevant personnel to release the black and white news poster of Neil's Derby matchup tomorrow.

After Neil heard this, he didn't pay much attention to it. He still followed the previous arrangement and continued to run at night. After the night run, he made another [-] shots.

After Neil finished running on the playground, he went back to the dormitory to change his equipment as before, and then came to the court with the ball in his arms.

He dribbled the ball with one hand along the way, and came to the court in a happy mood. Neil saw that there were five 1.8-meter-high men who were close to [-] meters tall playing half court there, and each of them seemed to have good skills, so he held the ball. Standing blankly watching, because there were a lot of people watching, Neil couldn't see the whole process of their attack, so he squeezed forward. Unexpectedly, the onlookers recognized him on the spot and called out his name.

When Derby and his five buddies heard Neil's name, they immediately stopped attacking. They looked towards Neil and took a closer look with the light. It was indeed him. Derby threw the basketball in his hands to his buddies. , walked over and looked at Neil and said, "Boy, do you dare to play with us?"

Neil also readily agreed: "Yes, but I only have one person. If you play three-on-three, I can't add it. I'd better watch you play for a while and practice shooting."

"Police, it's easy to say, you only need to pick two from the sidelines, or pick two from the group we lost to form a team with you."

"But my skills are terrible, so you guys should play! I'll just go to the empty field to cast." Neil saw so many bystanders on the sidelines, presumably these people must be very powerful, so he said modestly.

After Neil finished speaking, he was about to carry the ball to the empty field, but Derby grabbed his hand very appreciatively: "Brother, you are a master who just defeated Wells this afternoon, why can't you? You Don't be humble, be confident."

Seeing that the tall man in front of him was very sincere, Neil smiled and agreed.

Neil thinks that challenging big players can help him improve, even if he loses, it’s okay. Therefore, Neil played against Derby every game. He knew that he was as tall as his father, and his skills were not bad. , With his wingspan, it is impossible to succeed, so Neal used his teammates to give him a pick and roll, coupled with his precise mid-range shot and extremely fast breakthrough layup, he led Derby's two skills very well. Dude beat them down.

After he only won one game in three-on-three matchups with the Derby, he always lost one goal, which made him miss the victory. This is just like the contest with his father before coming to school. twice.

Neil fought with them until after nine o'clock. Due to the pain all over his body, he couldn't jump and was covered in sweat. Neil smiled and said to them, "Guys, play slowly. Thank you for your appreciation, and invite me to join you." Play, if there is a chance, we will meet again."

"Okay, bye!"

"goodbye!"

Just as Neil was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly wanted to know the name of the tall man who invited him to play, so he whispered to the bystanders: "Brother, may I ask, do you know the name of the tallest man?"

"He is the champion of the school --- Derby. Maybe you just came here and don't know him. I like watching him play the most. Not only is he good at the game, but he is also good in character." The onlooker answered him in a low voice.

"Well, yes, thank you!"

Neil was dumbfounded after hearing this, holding the ball and walking slowly, repeating in his mind what the bystander told him just now, that the person who played with him tonight is actually the school’s champion——Derby, Neil The figure of Derby flashed in my mind, and I was suddenly afraid and happy. What was afraid was that this man was a turret like his father. His wingspan and height made him unable to reach the ball in his hand; The quality is good, even if you lose to him, you still feel it is an honor to lose to him.
