NBA: The King of Basketball, the more haters I have, the stronger I become!

"I don't think I should only be the ninth pick!"

United States, North Carolina

Davidson College basketball court

In a pre-match media interview, Ye Chu stated directly, "I should be in the top three, it's that simple!"

Even his own defeated opponent, Blake Griffin, is ranked Top 1?

Why can't I be the Top 1?

In Ye Chu's eyes.

Aside from Curry and that bearded guy from Arizona State University.

I can't find a third person who is better than me!

Including DeMar DeRozan!

"So, who do you think your opponent will be today?"

The reporters at the scene were clearly not going to let Ye Chu end the interview: "Sim Thabite from the University of Connecticut!"

"He's currently the second-best rookie in this year's draft, what do you think of him...?"

"Sim Thabeet?"

"He's the biggest bust of all the rookies this year!"

Before the reporters could finish their questions, Ye Chu urged, "Next Question!"

Obviously

A man who can earn Ye Chu's respect.

Besides his teammate Curry and the bearded guy from Arizona State University.

There was no third person!

Ye Chu's consistently unruly interview style also made Connecticut University's rising star, Sim Thabeet, the focus of media attention.

Compared to Ye Chu's unruly attitude, Him Thabeet was much calmer.

Thabeet only said one sentence about today's game:

"I'm Top 2, while Curry and Ye Chu are only Top 5 and Top 9!"

The implication:

Ye Chu is only good at talking.

By citing the list selected by ESPN, I can prove that I am the best one.

The starkly different interview styles of the two teams' young core players only intensified the tension of the match.

Amid cheers from the fans, the two starting lineups took to the field.

At Davidson College, it remains the same:

Curry and Ye Chu led three utility players in the starting lineup.

The University of Connecticut is even simpler.

Starting power forward: Him Thabeet!

Other positions: utility player!

After a friendly exchange of glances between Ye Chu and Sim Thabeet before the game, the two teams' centers completed the jump ball.

There is no suspense.

Davidson College's starting center dominated the game, getting the ball to Curry first.

then

The instant Curry received the ball, Ye Chu, like lightning, once again sprinted down the court!

Davidson College's proud blitzkrieg is about to begin!

Regrettably.

This time, however, Curry's long pass did not materialize.

Because the moment he received the ball, the open Connecticut defender responsible for guarding him immediately closed in.

On one hand, this is the team's defensive strategy to limit Curry's performance.

On the other hand, this was also to sever the connection between Curry and Ye Chu.

At least their proud blitzkrieg strategy could not be realized.

the sidelines

Connecticut University head coach Jim Calhoun's eyes were full of admiration for his players.

Let’s not talk about anything else.

Throughout the entire NCAA league, only they were able to stop Davidson College's opening attack.

of course!

Successfully stopping Davidson College's classic blitzkrieg doesn't mean they're guaranteed to win the game.

Curry dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt, then transformed into a court dancer, weaving past his defender with a series of quick movements, breaking into the paint, and facing the long arms of Him Thabeet who came to help defend, he completed a floater!

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, the basketball hit the front edge of the rim and missed!

But it doesn’t matter!

Under the basket, Ye Chu took a step and leaped into the air, scoring a putback and dunk over Him Thabeet, who was trying to grab the rebound!

"boom!"

The powerful dunk over the defender made the rim clang loudly.

2: 0!

Davidson College, playing on home soil, took the lead from the start!

"Although they thwarted Davidson College's initial blitzkrieg tactics, Connecticut University still faces two major challenges!"

"That's right. Whether it's Ye Chu or Stephen Curry, their offensive performance has made things very difficult for the University of Connecticut."

Curry's three-pointers are a key focus for the University of Connecticut, but while they managed to stop his three-pointers, they couldn't contain the opponent's shooting.

As for Ye Chu?

They can't control it at all!

However, Connecticut University head coach Jim Calhoun wasn't in such a hurry.

What are the unsolvable issues?

The University of Connecticut also has one!

But... are their problems really that difficult to solve?

"What the hell?"

"Davidson Academy's defensive strategy at the start of the game was astonishing! They chose to have Ye Chu defend Tebit???"

During Connaught's offensive possession, the matchups on the court left the commentators dumbfounded: "What on earth is going on??"

"Pass me that damn basketball!"

Meanwhile, on the field

Thabeet, positioned under the basket, felt insulted when he saw Ye Chu behind him.

Damn it!

You're a small forward trying to defend a 2.13-meter center like me?

Are you really alright?

Faced with his older brother's request for the ball, the younger brother, acting as a tool, naturally passed the ball to Thabeet without any hesitation!

"Oh!"

Under the watchful eyes of the entire stadium, Thabeet, holding the ball, didn't even bother with trash talk. He turned his back to Ye Chu, held him off, and shoved him sideways!

In his view, he didn't even need to go all out to knock this Chinese kid off his feet!

but!

The result was completely different from what Thabeet had expected!

Not only did he fail to advance to the basket, but even with his full effort, he couldn't budge Ye Chu at all; the latter didn't even move.

"Ye Chu's physical abilities are truly terrifying!"

Seeing what was happening on the field, the commentator from ESPN TV jumped up from his seat in excitement: "We can hardly believe that Ye Chu actually blocked Thabit's attack!"

"Let's stop treating him like a player who only talks trash!"

Another commentator added, "His offensive ability, his defense, his physicality, and his proactive defense against the opponent's key player!"

"All of this tells us that Ye Chu is the most indispensable player for Davidson Academy!"

"Oh!"

On the sidelines, the two commentators were spitting as Thabeet, who had been unable to get Ye Chu to back down repeatedly, could only turn around and try to use his height advantage to overpower Ye Chu!

"Whoosh!"

However, the next moment, Ye Chu, who had been playing the defensive role, took the initiative and jumped up with all his might after bending his knees!

Under the watchful eyes of the entire stadium, this young man from China stretched out his long arms like a roc spreading its wings and blocked Thabeet's shot in mid-air!

The basketball seemed to be equipped with GPS, falling squarely into Curry's hands, who then launched a counterattack!

Facing an empty frontcourt, Curry decisively pulled up beyond the three-point line and confidently launched a three-pointer on the fast break!

"Shh!"

The basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air before piercing through the net!

After scoring, Curry pointed to Ye Chu, who had made a block in the backcourt.

Obviously

The greatest credit for this goal belongs to Ye Chu!
