New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 60 Elegant Basketball
The Panthers of the University of Pittsburgh and the Bruins of UCLA are rich and powerful teams. Among the prestigious schools, they had the worst record last year.

Compared with the Bruins who were still struggling to the NCAA championship in previous years, the Panthers are already half-abandoned.

This can be seen from their head coach.

"Yo ha ha ha, welcome everyone from the UCLA Bruins team to visit! I am old Z, the head coach of the Panthers, just call me Mr. Z."

This old Z is a well-known Buddhist head coach in the basketball circle. He proposed a set of health-preserving styles, claiming that basketball should become elegant again.

This elegance means that there is no physical contact, no brutal pulling and defense, and what you see is dunks and shots from both sides...

For this reason, besides being the head coach for half of his life, Old K has even published several biographies and is busier than some league superstars.

Of course Wacker was not interested in him, but it is said that this person is not as simple as it seems.

Once you enter the arena of the University of Pittsburgh, from the floor, the basket to the auditorium, this huge space is spotless, which is rare.

The members of the Black Panthers were not training but split up on both sides. Everyone greeted the Bruins with the same smile, as if they were not playing a game but getting married...

"Hey, the atmosphere is so weird, I'm getting goosebumps." Wali poked Zhang Yi and whispered.

Everyone else felt the same way, thinking that this university is also a public school, so how could it look like an aristocratic school.

"The game is scheduled for the evening, and I have already prepared lunch and afternoon tea for everyone!"

Old K said with a smile.Wacker looked unwilling, thinking that the sooner this kind of competition ends, the better.

"Mr. K, right? I don't think we should miss the time. I think the two teams are all here, and the referee and scorer are also here. It's okay to compare now!"

"Competing in broad daylight, my boys have never done anything so rude!"

Having said that, his disciples also answered in unison, "Yes."

Old K looked contemptuously. Although basketball should be played in the sun, it is a man's sport after all, but now the games are played at night for the sake of ratings. These people have long been accustomed to the feeling of playing under the spotlight.

"Damn, how can these people... use one word to describe..." Wake thought for a long time, then turned to look at Robert.

"Bitch!" Robert coughed and whispered in the coach's ear.

I saw Wack patted his disciple's shoulder fiercely, "That's right! That's the word, haha!"

According to old K's hospitality, everyone in the Bruins first warmed up on the court, and not long after lunch, a dozen burly men sat in the tea booth on the campus and drank afternoon tea...

Every student who passed by saw this scene so sour. The strong and tall man was sitting on a small chair, holding a small cup, drinking tea and talking and laughing happily?
"Please, is there something wrong with these guys' brains?" Passers-by stood around and discussed, but everyone in the Panthers seemed to be used to it, smiling all the time.

Zhang Yi and others couldn't take it anymore, their buttocks seemed to have grown nails, and now they felt uncomfortable all over.

Felton and his cousin also entered the campus with their two younger brothers. After all, he is also a tyrant, and the campus security guards turned a blind eye when they saw him.

"Hey, cousin, I heard that bastard is a basketball player from UCLA, and he will play a game against the Panthers here today."

"Cousin, don't worry, I will definitely get your face back with you as a brother!"

They had just finished speaking when they happened to see a circle of tall students sitting in the tea booth. Zhang Yi was quite conspicuous as the only person of yellow race.

"Cousin, that's him!" Felton yelled, his throat was all bared, "He cheated me of 50 yuan!"

"Very good, let's go find it if you don't have to!" I saw this fat white cousin walking towards the tea pavilion angrily.

Zhang Yi was still thinking about how to get out, but when he turned his head and saw Felton bringing someone to find fault, he subconsciously laughed.

Before the man came over, he stood up abruptly and said to the others, "A friend came to see me, and I will come as soon as I go."

"I'll go, why do you run first by yourself, you are not enough brother!" Wali and others whispered to him.

Zhang Yi smiled, "Haha, whoever makes me popular, I have friends everywhere."

Wally glanced at Felton, who was not kind to the visitor, "Don't be kidding, he is here for revenge, shall we help?"

While talking, Wali pulled Robert to stand up too. "Come together." He and Zhang Yi walked out of the tea booth with a smile on their faces.

Just as the fat man was about to speak, Zhang Yi put his arms around his shoulders and took him to a secluded place around him.

Zhang Yi stretched himself first, and then thanked them, making Felton and the others stunned. He wondered if this person was stupid. He greeted them with a smile when he saw the gangsters finding fault...

"Are you looking down on me?!" Fatty Bai took out a lightning butterfly knife and played it in front of Zhang Yi for a long time.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Fatty Bai was indeed bluffing, but Zhang Yi and others didn't take these people seriously.

"Cousin, they are not afraid!" Felton said from behind him, "Show them some strength!"

I saw Fatty Bai and two of his subordinates rushing directly at Zhang Yi and the others with knives.Felton is still thinking about how to torture this oriental boy, but it seems that the time given to him is not enough...

In just 3 minutes, the three of Zhang Yi solved their opponents respectively, and stood in front of Felton like three mountains.

Seeing his cousin and the others being tortured to the point of being unable to stand up, Felton fell to his knees and cried, "Hero, spare your life!"

"Yo, you can use idioms, it seems that you have grown your brain... Next time, you will end up like them..."

Zhang Yi said with a sneer, and then took Wally and Robert to the arena and asked them to go back to the tea pavilion, which was more uncomfortable than being beaten.

Felton has really lost both money and people these two days, "Cousin, I'm sorry, I'm leaving first."

Seeing passers-by notice this, Felton ignored his cousin for the sake of his own face, and ran away first.

The three of Zhang Yi practiced for a while, only to see that the other Bruins players also made excuses and ran out one after another.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer boys around him, Wacker laughed, "Old K, it seems that my disciples are not used to drinking your tea."

"Yo ha ha ha, it's okay, after all, the children have different personalities." Old K said with a smile.

When it came time to play at night, the Pittsburgh Panthers did implement the so-called elegant basketball advocated by the head coach.

There is no confrontation with the opponents of the Bruins, and the basketball will roll to their feet before they will grab it...

This kind of competition may be even more intense than this for children to play games.

Zhang Yi and the others were uncomfortable. Although they won by a big score in the end, it was the most difficult game played by everyone in the Bruins so far, at least for them...

Wacker is very curious, why would anyone be willing to play for this kind of man.

It turned out later that the players on the University of Pittsburgh Panthers were heart failure patients, and elegant basketball might be the only way for them to enjoy the sport...

Leaving Pittsburgh, the next stop is Syracuse, New York! The last game of the ACC's three-game streak, the opponent is the Syracuse University Orange Team!
