Chapter 5 Preliminary Integration into the Team (Part 2)

Jason Anthony sighed: Mario challenged Chen Junhao is a very wrong choice. If the opponent does not hold back in this game, he will be humiliating himself.

Mike Carman muttered secretly: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have warned him in advance. Mario would have suffered this time. I hope Chen can still remember the virtues of the Chinese and give him some face."

On the court, he threw three-pointers to his opponent in the same position three times in a row. Mario's feeling could no longer be described as shame and annoyance. He was completely ashamed and angry. "Damn it, do you only know how to shoot three-pointers?" he shouted loudly.

"Of course not." Chen Junhao said lightly, "I just tried to see if I could make a continuous shot, but in the end three shots in a row." He stared at Mario coldly, "If I were you, I would calm down now. Three consecutive three-pointers like I just had the luck in anyone. I heard that you are the strongest in the first grade. If you don't have this ability to control yourself, then the first graders of Missouri Columbia this year are a bit too bad." A tone of a completely lesson and a completely strong attitude. Chen Junhao has decided to impress this unruly young man with the strongest means. He will not compete for the position of the team's boss, but he will never tolerate a first-grade boy underestimating him.

Mario stared at Chen Junhao fiercely, took a deep breath and tried to calm down, posing in a defensive posture and gritted his teeth and said, "Come on! I see if you can shoot another three-pointer!"

"Who knows." Chen Junhao shrugged and grabbed the basketball on the ground. "Bang!" A basketball bounced up and Chen Junhao's figure rotated like a whirlwind. With two consecutive dribbling sounds, the basketball moved from behind to front and back to the back - the basketball was always controlled to the side away from Mario. At 360 degrees, with a waltz-like pace, Chen Junhao easily came to the inside line. Through Mario standing on the penalty area line, he hooked the basket with his right hand, "Swish!" The clear sound of entering the net, the ball entered and scored!

"It's 11:0." A complete amazement.

"Mario's defense seems to have no effect at all. Don't he know that he is playing on behalf of us?"

"Idiot, can you turn your body like that and break into the inside line? Then the two hand-changing movements during the rotation are unheard of, it's so beautiful!"

Mike Carman looked solemn and thought to himself: "That kind of hook is a move against inside players. Can he block his shot if he stands under the basket?"

"Ba, bha, bha..." dribbling, accelerate, stop, jump shot, "Ba, swish!" shot through the board, the ball enters. A simple jump shot, but the effect is not simple at all.

It was 13:0. No one screamed out this time. The stadium was silent at some point. Everyone stared at the oriental youth in the duel on the court with solemn eyes.

If the person on the court is himself, can he block his attack? The answer makes most people's minds suddenly heavier, and the atmosphere on the court becomes solemn.

The gaze swept across Mario's pale face on the court, and Chen Junhao said intimately: It should be OK. "Bang!" After the breakthrough, the jump shot missed the basket.

Finally it was Mario's turn to attack.

With his hands tightly grasping the basketball, Mario acted fearing that the basketball would fly away and he would lose this offensive opportunity.

"Can you pause for a while?" Chen Junhao spoke, panting and spreading his hands out of breath, looking very tired, "Let's take a break, I'm almost exhausted."

Mario was not arrogant at all. He was stunned for a moment and came to his senses. He nodded quickly and said, "Then take a break, I'm so tired." In fact, he was so nervous that he continued to showdown in this state, he would probably lose his offensive opportunity this time.

"Chen finally has room for nothing." Mike Carman on the sidelines said intimately, "Without this timeout, Chen Junhao would not be able to leave room for the subsequent showdown. The one-sided defeat would definitely be a fatal blow to Mario's confidence."

Mike Carman knew that many of the other players on the court also saw it. For the first time in his life, these people sincerely appreciated the Chinese modesty.

After the rest, Mario's nervousness finally eased, and her face was no longer as arrogant as before, and her expression was calm and focused. After just five minutes of nightmare, he had fully realized that this "Chinese boy" does have the strength to match his Asian first genius. "Maybe he is indeed not his opponent." This was the enlightenment after the past five minutes of nightmare. But Mario has always been an excellent player, and it is definitely not his style to admit defeat before the game ends.

Even if you lose, you have to fight with all your might.

"Paipa..." Mario skillfully controlled the basketball and exchanged between his left and right hands, turning, stepping, and changing hands behind his back. With a height of 200 cm, Mario's ball control can be considered to be of considerable level, and he is definitely outstanding by the standards of a small forward. However, after Chen Junhao's performance just now, such a high-level dribble seemed a bit miserable. When the basketball was controlled in Chen Junhao's hands, it seemed to be a part of his body. The changes in movements were all natural and pleasing to the eye.

Thinking that no matter how hard he tried, he would not beat his opponent in possession, Mario decided to rely on his height to approach the basket before deciding on his victory or defeat.

"Bang, bang..." After constantly putting pressure on his back, he approached the basket step by step. His body suddenly swayed left and right, and then the ball started. The basketball was raised high, turned around and shot, and "Bang, swish!" easily hit the basket. He approached the basket with the advantage of strength, and then decided the winner in the penalty area by relying on his height. It was a very simple and practical trick. A complete center-forward tactic!

Mike Carman smiled and said, "It's really incredible that Mario would take such a move. But dealing with Chen Junhao should be the most practical move."

Jason Anthony said: "He has completely abandoned the arrogance in his heart. If he had made such a change a year earlier, maybe this game could still be won."

"Ba, ba, ba, ba!" Mario dribbled at the high position, Chen Junhao bent down and opened his arms to wait. "Ba!" The ball was raised, raised his hand, and shot. Mario's shot directly crossed the top of Chen Junhao's head and flew towards the basket. "Ba!" landed on the basket and bounced high, then fell back to the basket and turned it drippingly on it, and finally plunged into the basket in Mario's expectant gaze.

Score, 4:13!

Such goals once again prove that "basketball is always the offensive side to take the initiative." This law. It is basically impossible for Chen Junhao to make a pre-judgment before making a blocking action with such a sudden shot.

"Lucky!" Mario said in his heart that the same shot was that Chen Junhao would not be confident that he would make a move without any stopping. The shooting at this position was not what he was best at.

He grabbed the basketball on the ground with one hand, Chen Junhao shook his wrist and passed the ball back to Mario, saying, "Your calmness surprised me. I took back what I just said. You are indeed worthy of being the strongest first-year player at Columbia University in Missouri. However," Chen Junhao shook his waist and opened his arms, "This level is not enough to defeat me. Come out with some new tricks."

Mario curled his lips and said, "As long as you can score a goal," while speaking, "Pai Pao Pao..." The rapid dribbling sound Mario approached quickly, broke through along the penalty area line to the right, stopped quickly, jumped up, held the basketball high in his hand, and shot!

"Bang!" Suddenly blocked the basketball with one hand in the air, Chen Junhao!

After the basketball fell to the floor, it kept bouncing. The two of them in the duel confronted each other with their eyes facing each other. Mario was hit hard by someone who was more than ten centimeters shorter, but his face still had a resolute expression.

Chen Junhao stared at his opponent deeply and said, "It's my turn again."

"It's so much nonsense!" Mario said coldly.

Mario has been given an offensive opportunity, and the 4:13 score is enough to show the difference in strength between the two. Chen Junhao thought he had left enough room to plan to end the game.

"Swish!" Stop and jump shot!

"Swish!" High throw shot, three-pointer.

"Bang, swish!" Enter the basket.

"Swoosh!" Stop and jump shot after a quick jump.

"Boom!" After breaking through, the dunk was strong.

The game ended, as if the showdown had ended in the moment after Chen Junhao took back the offensive power. This was not a contest at the same level at all!

The basketball was still bouncing on the floor, and the stadium was silent. Everyone looked at Chen Junhao in the stadium and couldn't help but feel a little more awe, and fear came from fear!

"Ba, ba, ba..." A burst of applause sounded in the stadium, and everyone looked in the voice, but it was the team's head coach Smith who was back.

"A wonderful showdown!" Smith looked around the players in the museum and smiled, "I don't know you are all so familiar."

"Hello coach!" the team members said in unison.

"Hello Mr. Smith!" Chen Junhao greeted with a smile.

Smith smiled and nodded, walked to Mario and patted his shoulder gently, comforting: "Don't feel that he was hit. The gap in strength is not as big as the score difference. Use your advantages and improve your skills. The result of the next showdown will not be like this, at least the gap in scores will not be so big."

Mario said firmly: "I know coach, I won't be discouraged. With a strong teammate like Chen, I will not be arrogant in the future. I will strive to defeat him."

Smith nodded and said, "I feel relieved if you have such a perception. There is a saying that I have never told you first-year players that I am afraid of hurting your self-esteem. The new first-year players at Columbia University this year are very good, but you may not know one thing. When choosing to recruit you, I am not your strength, but your potential. As for you Mario, you are the strongest among first-year players, but I don't expect you to be able to do it.

Immediately become the backbone of the team. I recruit you in hopes that you can inherit Jason's legacy in one or two years and become the team's ace. You may not have the ability to participate in the NBA draft now, and you are not the most outstanding among players of the same age. But at most two years later, when your skills mature, you will become the target of NBA teams like Jason now. Work hard!" Smith said that.

Mario nodded with excitement, and the coach's attention made him very excited.

Looking back, Smith said to Chen Junhao: "As for you, Chen, you are already one of the strongest players on the team. With you joining, there is no longer any flaw in the back line of our Columbia University basketball team this year. It's our turn to win the NCAA championship this year."

"Come on, NCAA champion!" Everyone shouted in unison, and a huge shout came from outside the stadium.

Chen Junhao's arrival brought hope of a championship to Missouri Columbia University, and his strong strength was even more eye-catching. On the first day he came to Missouri Columbia basketball team, he had already accepted the recognition for his players.
