Chapter 43 - [Top point guard, own advantages]
The two generations were human, Guo Xu has never been as beautiful and happy as he is today. When he was excited, he spoke a little incoherently. Even the eyebrow shaving in the space-time cycle was revealed vaguely. Fortunately, no one understood.
Bingxin once said: “Successful flowers, people only admire its present beauty. At that time, his bud was soaked in the tears of struggle and sprinkled with drizzle of sacrifice.”
No one can be successful casually, and only some of them know what they are paying for.
At the beginning of the awards ceremony, Guo Xu was successfully elected as the MOP of the Final Four. Captain Cliffs and Peterson took over the championship trophy together. The two cried in silence. This is the most painstaking youth!
Guo Xu won the MOP, but he will not get the chance to win the championship trophy with the captain. This is a moment for the two. They already have the strength to participate in the NBA draft, but they are willing to play for Michigan State for four years.
After the award ceremony, he returned to the locker room. Many middle school students who had not contacted for a long time Guo Xu called and texted to congratulate him on winning the championship and winning the best player. Everyone knows that he is a blockbuster and will definitely play in the NBA. Instead, Guo Xu’s family didn’t call to congratulate them. They were all terrified by Guo Xu’s performance today.
The family knows Guo Xu’s level best. He has played with Richardson for many years, and his level is far worse than “Black Jason”. But in the last two games, “Black Jason” is like Guo Xu’s younger brother.
Guo Xu did not take the initiative to call, and sent a text message to his parents, grandfather, and grandmother, ready to buy a gift and go home to talk in detail, saying that he had been ready in the time cycle.
Took a break in the locker room for a while. The Buddha players first held a press conference.
Coach Billy Donovan took the responsibility for this defeat to himself.
“The core players are here, and the loss should be blamed on me in at least some respects.” Donovan said frankly: “I should prepare the players for this game, but this did not happen. Instead, it was bad performance, all this It all started with me. I thought the opponent would arrange Cliffs and Peterson to attack, seriously underestimating the strength of Jason Guo. “
The reporter asked: “What level of guard do you think Jason Guo belongs to in the NCAA?”
“Top point guard, I think he can play the NBA.”
Buddha players generally don’t speak much, most of the reporters asked them to evaluate their opponents, which made the losers feel embarrassed.
Only the reporter who interviewed Miller asked some questions about the draft. After this big defeat, Miller had some doubts about his own strength. He didn’t dare to say that he could be selected in the summer.
The four core players of Michigan State University and coach Tom Izo attended the press conference together. Guo Xu took the MOP trophy and put it on the table, which was very eye-catching.
The others in the team evaluated Guo Xu.
Coach Izo said affirmatively: “It’s not that I didn’t reuse him before, he really became stronger suddenly. On the 2nd, we arrived in Polis. He trained him very poorly in the afternoon. I was approved for the next day. Everyone is ready to reduce his playing time. I did n’t expect him to be judged by two people. No one can prevent him. “
Richardson’s answer is more interesting: “I’m thinking about it. When I get back to Michigan, will he let me give me an elbow, maybe I will become stronger.”
The reporter interviewed Guo Xu and asked him about dancing and celebrating in the competition.
Guo Xu said: “Dancing is my hobby. I have practiced both tango and Latin dance. This kind of celebration will make me more happy.”
The reporter asked: “Have you thought that this may anger the opponent?”
“Since they are opponents, is it very beneficial for them to lose control of their emotions?” Guo Xu smiled.
Reporters are very satisfied with this answer. They do n’t like to interview good kids. In the NBA, provocations and nonsense are also part of the game, which is very common.
Another reporter asked why Guo Xu suddenly became stronger. Guo Xu perfunctoryly said: “I don’t know. I was elbowed into the hospital when I was in the quarterfinals. I don’t know which nerve was touched. When I woke up, I became conscious. , I suddenly wanted to understand a lot of things that I did n’t understand, the ball quotient became higher, probably this is the reason for becoming stronger. I used to be introverted, the playing style is different from now, I dare not try to hold the ball to attack, now I want to take on More responsibility. “
Several players were asked if they would participate in this year’s NBA draft, and Guo Xu is no exception.
Guo Xu said decisively: “Yes, I will sign up for this year’s NBA draft. I believe I have the strength to play in the NBA, and I am eager for a higher level of competition and a larger stage.”
The reporter asked: “What do you think is your advantage when playing NBA?”
Guo Xu smiled and said: “I’m not bad in speed, strength, shooting, organization, and all aspects. The disadvantage is only height.”
The reporter asked: “You took MOP, now do you think you are the best player on the team?”
“I think these two games are.” Guo Xu smiled.
He did not say that he must be better than Cliffs, so it is likely to affect the draft pick of his teammates. He does not want to use this method to hype, and the award has already had a high exposure.
Female reporter Audrey Jones also arrived at the scene and asked: “The evening news of ABC Radio has broadcast pre-match interviews of the two teams. At that time, you told me that you would lead the team to win 4, 50 points and get the MOP. Why are you so confident? “
“Because of our strength, we have four players who can play in the NBA, and we have top basketball coaches. It is not surprising that we have won a lot.” Guo Xu replied.
The conference was over, and when the players left the arena, Guo Xu was already on fire.
The major news media reported the NCAA Finals, and the most mentioned player was Guo Xu ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Not just a newspaper, someone has uploaded a video of Guo Xubiao’s three-point dance after returning to defense, There is also a Michigan fan who edited Guo Xu ’s highlights, some of his almost dance moves while avoiding cover.
His exposure is the highest among all players. Most people think that he deserves the MOP. Not only is he a good offensive player, but he is also not defensive on the defensive end.
Of course, some people poured cold water. Some “basketball experts” said that Guo Xu played well because the overall confrontation of NCAA players was not fierce enough, and the defensive pressure of Buddha players was not enough. He took out his physical data as an example, wearing shoes with a height of 180CM, People weighing 73 kilograms are absolutely unable to adapt to NBA-level confrontation.
For these remarks, Guo Xu is not worried at all. Before the draft, the NBA team will issue trial invitations to the young players he wants. As long as he shows his strength in the trial training, he can dispel all doubts.
It is more regrettable that in this era, the NBA still has no unified rookie training camp. It is certainly not as good as participating in the training camp to show its strength. The training camp is the mirror of the rookie, who is stronger and weaker, playing two games at a glance.
In the future, after rookies often participate in training camps, there will be a situation where the order soars or falls sharply.
For example, Rough Brother center DeAndre Jordan, he was invited to the “Green House” to participate in the draft conference, because of his superb physical fitness, not inferior to “Warcraft” Dwight Howard. As a result, Jordan’s performance in the training camp was a mess. The offense was all dunks and free throws were often non-stick. On the defensive end, he and other centers were always beaten one-on-one, so he fell to the second round.
Guo Xu didn’t worry about getting a chance to try out. His only worry was that the team he wanted to join didn’t issue an invitation.
