The third volume

The meme of the third volume

I am really busy lately and have a lot of things, so I often only have one update a day. And because I have to write the NCAA and I have to check more information. I am now judging Drexler's autobiography in all English, which is quite troublesome, so the writing speed is slow, so please understand and forgive me.

When I was writing the meme of the third volume, I said I would write it, but I didn’t take time to make up for it now. I may still remember it when I wrote it, but I have forgotten it now. This is actually the case in the second volume of the first volume. I will try my best to recall it.

1, Chapter 43: About Joey Wong.

At that time, Joey Wong was a player in the high school basketball team and played very well in basketball. If you are interested, you can search for this video.

Because she was pretty, she was invited by Adidas to shoot an advertisement. I don’t know what advertisement it is.

However, the heroine of this book is not based on Joey Wong, and I don’t know Joey Wong.

2. Chapter 44: Unfortunately, the Houston Rockets, led by him, lost to the Seattle Supersonics in the first round of this year's playoffs, which also opened the Rockets' miserable history when facing the Supersonics in the playoffs.

If the protagonist does not completely change history, then the Rockets lost to the Supersonics five times in the playoffs in the 1981-82 season, starting from the 1981-82 season, respectively, and lost to the Supersonics for five consecutive times. It was not until 1997 that they finally avenged their previous shame.

3, Chapter 45: Butter-Thunder, butter bomb.

This is a nickname imitating Darrell Dawkins' nickname "Chocolate-Thunder", because he was very good at dunking and was also a black man, which brought a lot of entertainment to the audience, so he got the nickname. The protagonist is a yellow man, so he used a butter bomb.

4, Chapter 49: Harold Miner.

He did grow up in Inglewood, Los Angeles. When he was a high school student, he had the nickname "BABYJORDAN". Unfortunately, he had nothing compared to Jordan except dunk. I remember correctly that the two-handed slam dunk in Chapter 47, he used it in both slam dunk competitions in 1993 and 1995, and he also used it for the second dunk.

Five, Chapter 50: Mark Eaton.

Mark Eaton actually participated in the NBA Draft in 1979. He was selected by the Suns in the 107th place in the fifth round, the corner where the bird was not shitty.

But in fact, he did not graduate from college at that time. After graduating from high school, he worked as a car repair worker for three years. He was discovered by a basketball coach during a car repair process for people and took him to Cypress University for a year.

Then in 1980 he went to UCLA again, but he was very unhappy there and his potential was not realized, which is why the article says that he doesn't like UCLA.

Later, because Chamberlain went to UCLA for many years to train and coach Eaton, he began to realize how he should play. He was selected by the Utah Jazz in 1983 and began to use his due strength.

Six, Chapter 51

Chamberlain said: "Of course, any superstar should go to the street court and use street rules to compete with the legends and tell them who the fuck is the best basketball player in this place! Like Ramsey, Kareem and McConnett, Julius Irving and Joe Hammond, if you want to be a legend, you have to find yourself a worthwhile opponent, whether on the floor of the gym or on the concrete on the street!"

It was customary for players to play on the street at that time, and Chamberlain came from Philadelphia, while Kareem and Irving came from New York. The street basketball level in these two places has always been the highest in the United States.

These stars have grown up on the street since childhood, like Chamberlain who played in the Harlem basketball team before entering the NBA. As for their opponents, they have gimmicks, but they are also legends passed down at that time.

The deeds of Ramsey and Chamberlain are no longer verified, while "Goats" Earl McConnett was made by Jabbar "the greatest player who has never played in the NBA". It is said that he had a double dunk for one goal; the Destroyer is rumored to have scored 50 points in the half-time game against Dr. J, which is of course no longer verified.

Seven, Chapter 52: Demitches Mitchell, who is less than six feet tall, touches the basket with his elbow.

According to rumors, Mitchell's running-up vertical bounce is 50 inches, 4 feet 2, which is 1.27 meters, which is almost the limit of human bounce.

According to some of the remarks I collected in the American forum, 50 inches should be unlikely, but 48 inches, that is, 4 feet, is possible.

And if he can jump to 4 feet high, it is entirely possible for his elbow to touch the basket.

8, Chapter 55: Larry Famal.

In fact, he is a coach with a good record in UCLA (61 wins and 23 losses). He also wrote a professional basketball book, and I can't remember the name. For the sake of plot development, he can only be a villain. Moreover, he is indeed a relatively mediocre coach and has not made any name in various teams. He does look a bit like Octopus.

Nine, Chapter 57: However, the McDonald's All-Star in 1982 can be said to be a star-blank, and there are almost no such group of elected students who have become famous in the future.

There were 26 high school students selected that year, and 20 of them finally entered the NBA. The most famous of them was the second-place Viman Tisdal in 1985. In addition, there were several homeless players such as Nott Benjamin, Tim Kempert, Brand Lehouse, and the players who flashed by.

There was really nothing to write about, so I omitted the McDonald's All-Stars.

Ten, Chapter 58: Gan Guoyang made a fake pass in the back of his head and then shot directly.

Some people have used this trick in the NBA. One is Marbury, who played Divac in a certain All-Star Game, of course he threw the ball; and the other is Stadamier, who can't remember who he played with; the other is Duncan played Mutombo, and this video can be found.

Eleven, Chapter 60: Looking at Gan Guoyang's sweat and his soaked jersey, Jabbar couldn't help but think of an old opponent, the tough center who always sweated like a slurry in the game and also made him sweat like rain.

Jabbar himself admitted that it was very difficult to beat Thurmond, "Thurmond sweats like slurry, but he also forced his opponent to sweat like slurry." This is also a very classic sentence for evaluating Thurmond, reflecting Thurmond's tough and fierce defense, and he is also Jabbar's biggest hard work.

Twelve, Chapter 61: The last paragraph of the protagonist's description.
Chapter completed!
