Time flies, and it's November.
Since Maxson decided to start a column in the Philadelphia Evening News to cover the new season of the Penn High School Basketball League, this guy has almost become Lower Merion's team reporter...
Every once in a while, Maxson would run to Lower Merion with a camera.
In addition to shooting the team members' usual training pictures, Maxson also intends to collect some material for the story between Kobe and Su Feng.
In Su Feng's previous life, many biographies of NA stars were written by reporters like Maxson.
Like Kobe Bryant's senior year, many reporters came to Lower Merion.
Because Kobe was already very famous at that time, everyone was optimistic about him scoring in NA and becoming a leading player.
But it can be said that it is quite rare for a reporter like Su Feng to help him do these things before he is famous.
Abroad, there are many journalists like Maxson.
Of course, they not only interview athletes, but also go undercover to some companies to reveal the industry insider.
In Su Feng's previous life, many reports that won international news awards were written through such long-term investigative interviews.
As someone with journalistic ideals, Maxson doesn't think it's new to write about a gifted American high school student who made it to NA.
But what if the story is about a Chinese student who gets into NA
Maxson thought it would be interesting.
And Greg Donner and the school are very supportive of Maxson in this matter.
Because in the eyes of the school and Greg, this is helping them to do free publicity.
For a time, if it weren't for the huge difference in skin color between Su Feng and Maxson, even Kobe would have wondered what relationship Su Feng had with Maxson.
…
On the 15th, it was the eve of the Pennsylvania High School Basketball League game.
After finishing the extra training with Kobe, Su Feng, who returned to the apartment, took a bath to relax.
Then while taking a bath, Su Feng opened the system interface.
Under the strict standards of Su Feng's almost insane, Su Feng felt that he was not far from being an excellent little blacksmith, ahem, an excellent basketball player.
"Host: Su Feng, Nationality: China, Age: 16 years old, Height: 190 cm, Weight: 76 kg..."
"The host's current ability value (NA second-round draft level), close-range shooting: 44 [64], mid-range shooting: 75 [79], three-point shooting: 77 [80].
Passing: 20[45], Vision: 25[50], Possession: 49[55].
Lateral movement: 78 [88], one-on-one marking: 77 [91], steals: 46 [81].
Bounce: 54[71], Strength: 36[45], Rebound: 24[30].
The host is currently equipped with a shooting action: Class A Stephen Curry University shooting bag.
The host is currently equipped with a stunt: Kobe's turn over and back (golden epic), the current level: University elite level.
The host's perk library is not equipped with perk: Sam Gold (original).
Host currently has badges equipped: None. "
In terms of ability value changes, Su Feng's ability can be said to be increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, after improving some attributes through daily training, Su Feng also found that the higher the ability value, the slower its growth rate.
For example, Su Feng used to increase his shooting ability several times a day, but recently, his mid-range and three-point shooting have basically not increased.
In addition, because of Su Feng's constant pursuit of difficulty, such hidden stunts as "Kobe's turning over and leaning back" have been upgraded to the university elite level by him.
The biggest change brought to Su Feng by the elite university's "Kobe's rollover" is that his rollover speed is not only faster than before, but also more stable.
So... still that damn paradox.
The system eliminates any possibility of Su Feng cheating.
"Heh, no matter how good your defense is, can you think that I will encounter a humanoid hacker like Kobe?" Su Feng thought to himself after reviewing his stats.
"The goal of the next stage is to unlock the 7.0 system.
Although I have recently accumulated a lot of iron value, I can draw a lottery, but it is not necessary.
After these few friendly matches, my current ability is absolutely enough to play in the high school league.
Although I really want to know what functions the badges have, it is not very reliable to fight for character, and it may also slow down my progress in upgrading the system.
Now upgrading the system and unlocking more abilities is the key for me to continue to improve! "
After making a plan, Su Feng fell asleep.
After all, if you practice hard every day, even Iron Man needs to go to bed early and get up early.
…
The next day, because today was the start day of the Pennsylvania High School Basketball League, Su Feng and Kobe made an agreement before.
As long as it is a match day in the future, the special training program at 4:00 in the morning will be cancelled.
Of course, training has been canceled, but the sandwich is still appropriate in Kobe's view.
"You have just transferred schools. If you are late because you are lost, it will be bad. I will wait for you at your house on game days in the future."
At the end of training yesterday, Kobe said to Su Feng.
Su Feng didn't expose Kobe's flawed excuse. After all, you have a friend to accompany you to school, why not do it
And although Su Feng's actual age is much older than Kobe, the friendship between men sometimes has nothing to do with age.
It is worth mentioning that although the competition system of the American high school basketball league is very different from that of the NCAA, it has similarities in many places.
Usually, like in Pennsylvania, November and December are called preliminaries.
And in January and February, what is called the regional competition.
March is called the state championship fight.
Because like Pennsylvania, if so many high schools have to play against each other, a high school team is estimated to play hundreds of games in a year.
Therefore, the general event organizing committee will first divide a division according to the area where the high school is located, and this division generally has 30 to 40 high schools.
The high schools will compete against each other in a single round-robin format, and then the top four in each division will advance to the final regional competition.
After the competition enters the regional competition stage, the top eight at the state level will be determined through a round-robin system, and then the final single-elimination championship will be held.
Therefore, this is also the reason why Su Feng wanted to give Kobe Amway a sewer before.
Because under this competition system, even a steel chariot has a certain chance of overturning.
Of course, Su Feng felt that it was still too early to give Kobe Amway the sewer. He planned to wait for the league to start, and slowly instill in Kobe the corporate culture and philosophy of sewer.
Then again, Lower Merion isn't having much luck this year, as the division they're assigned to has a six-peat team like Ridley High School.
But... ...
The tools of Kobe and Su Feng and Lower Merion do not think their divisions are bad.
Because they had beaten Ridley High School in a friendly match before, for a while, Lower Merion's players lost their awe of the defending champion.
And the opposite...
At Ridley Middle School, coach Fernandez wanted to hire a murderer to assassinate Greg Donner after seeing Ridley's division.
Fernandez has been really depressed since his last friendly defeat to Lower Merion.
…
…
In the opening game, Lower Merion's first opponent was Shipley, a school with an average SAT score of 1,300.
Um... ...
Usually in the United States, this kind of school is recognized as a fish belly in the basketball circle...
And it turns out that Shipley may well have insulted the word belly.
"Why do I feel that the game is over before I warm up?"
As the first official game of his high school basketball career, Su Feng, who was thinking of killing the world upside down, looked at the scoreboard on the side of the court and said a little depressed.
"Normal, they played pretty well this year, you know, we beat them by a full 70 points last year." Kobe patted Su Feng on the shoulder and said.
Su Feng: ORZ.
I thought that Nefaria was already a piece of tofu dregs, but what I didn't expect was that there was still more scum than tofu dregs.
26 to 87, on the field, if it wasn't for Lower Merion's substitutes, Shipley's score would not have exceeded 20 today.
No way, the gap between American high school basketball is too big.
Therefore, both Su Feng and Kobe were replaced by coach Greg after the first half.
In the whole game, Su Feng, who only played in 2 quarters, made 8 of 11 shots, including 4 of 5 three-pointers, without free throws, and scored 20 points.
Kobe Bryant made 10 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 27 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, and 4 blocks.
Facing an opponent like Shipley, Su Feng really couldn't even think of striking iron.
But the good thing is that Lower Merion's next opponent, Malvern Preparatory Middle School, has heard that he has good strength and has the strength to qualify from the division...
…
On the 19th, the Malvern Prep High School basketball hall.
After three quarters of the game, the students in this basketball hall have begun to wonder if they are watching NA.
Kobe performed a slam dunk show in this game, and completed a total of 5 slam dunks in the whole game.
On the other hand, Su Feng performed a three-point show, and made a total of 7 three-pointers in the whole game.
Even... There are also 3 ultra-long three-pointers that are not common in this era.
During the game, in addition to showing his shooting range, Su Feng also stunned the students of Malvern Preparatory High School with his catching, drifting, throwing and three-pointers.
Su Feng was desperate.
Because today... His hand feels like heaven.
I thought about increasing the difficulty and brushing the iron value after taking the lead by a large score, but the hand feeling is not allowed.
And have a say... . . .
It is said that Malvern Prep High School is a strong basketball school.
Take a look!
It's only three quarters, why is the score already 70 to 44!
"Well, it's right to increase the difficulty of the shot to get the iron value when you are sure to win the game, after all, no matter how small a grasshopper is, it is still meat.
Today, I was just too accurate, and my opponent was too weak. "
After the game, looking at his technical statistics, Su Feng comforted himself.
In the end, Raul Merion won the game 86-57. Su Feng made 12 of 21 shots, including 7 of 14 three-pointers and no free throws. He scored a game-high 31 points. rebounds and 0 assists.
On Kobe's side, he made 11 of 23 shots, including 0 of 6 three-pointers and 5 of 8 free throws. He scored 27 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals, and 4 blocks.
In this game, although Kobe was not allowed from the outside, but all five dunks were wonderful.
Moreover, Su Feng always felt that Kobe was deliberately rebounding himself, because Kobe missed several three-pointers, and he finally picked up the rebound.
"Hopefully, the opponent in the next game can be more powerful!" After the game, Su Feng silently cheered for the opponent in the next game.
