point guard here

Chapter 42 042: [He is just a child]

From the moment Vanhey entered the arena, a camera followed him closely.From TJ drawing the line with him, to him talking about the competition system with Chuck Daly, to Chuck Daly bringing Vanhee into the office to watch the game, the whole process was followed.

Moreover, Fan Xi was wearing a microphone.

He's one of only five players in the camp with a mic and his own camera.

The other four are: Stephon Marbury, Chauncey Billups, Randy Livingston, and Michael Carter.

Frankly speaking, Vanhee has no plans to play in the next game. He agrees with Chuck Daly that any true point guard should be distinguished from the street player.

Yes, street basketball is good at the ball, and very imaginative.

But that's not regular basketball after all.

Moreover, if a point guard pursues too much fancy, gorgeous, and eye-catching ball control, it is destined to be unable to be connected with efficient tactics.

Therefore, Fan Xi would rather not appear in the first batch of 15 players.

He even deliberately released water during training.

but.

Backfired.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Isiah Thomas comes in with the roster, and he will announce the 15 players for the first 'public performance'.

The young geniuses in the training hall were extremely excited, and almost everyone had restless emotions on their faces. Everyone was looking forward to this result and hoped that they could get this opportunity.

Who wouldn't want to be famous on television?

After the first episode aired, Fan Xi and Marbury's fame gave them great excitement.

"Stephen Marbury."

Isiah Thomas said the first name, no suspense.

And then... "Ralph Alston."

No suspense either.

These two are the best on the streets of New York, they have streetball colors in themselves, and everyone knows that they are flashy and flashy with the ball.

Then, I read the names of Chauncey Billups, Anthony Johnson, Randy Livingston...etc.

Fan Xi still didn't appear until the No.14 names were read.

At this time, the expectation value in the crowd has been raised to the highest point, and everyone wants to be the last to be called by their name and become the one who enters the list at the buzzer.

TJ Walter even raised his heart to his throat.

On the contrary, Fan Xi was very calm, he was always not interested in participating in streetball games.

However, Stephon Marbury and Ralph Alston next to him kept chanting: Xi-Fan! Xi-Fan! Xi-Fan!

It made Fan Xi a little embarrassed.He repeatedly corrected these two, but he couldn't help it. In the case of the official introduction, his name was called 'Porridge' in the United States.

It doesn't sound nutritious.

"The last player is..."

Isaiah Thomas finally read this, and made a fool of himself: "Who do you think?"

ME!

The vast majority of players are pointing at themselves.

Stephon Marbury, Ralph Alston and Chauncey Billups yelled: Xi-Fan!

"Yes, that's right."

Isiah Thomas pointed his finger at Fan Xi: "That's right, the last name is Mr. High School Basketball from Virginia, our Xi-Fan!"

what?
The training camp was in an uproar.

"Why him?" Many people questioned loudly.

Fan Xie's former good friend TJ Walter even ran up to Isiah Thomas: "I am obviously stronger than him, why not me? The whole training camp knows that I once beat him single-handedly."

TJ Water was referring to a one-on-one training in the team three days ago. At that time, Water did beat Fan Xie 11:9.

This is why there are so many uproars in the training hall.

These geniuses from various states felt that Fan Xi was nothing special, how could he be included in the 15-man roster when he was mediocre.And wearing a microphone.

Isiah Thomas said to them in a very calm tone: "This is voted by all the trainers, sponsors, me and Chuck Daly."

"You're seven votes behind him. You're seventh from the bottom."

Isiah Thomas said to him calmly.

And tell other unconvinced players: "This is just one of the opportunities. If you are not convinced, you can work harder in the next training."

After speaking, Thomas walked away.

"I will definitely beat you."

TJ Walter walked up to Fan Xie and said to him: "You are just being taken care of by Chuck Daly, your real level is far lower than mine."

The little friendship that the two had accumulated before was completely torn apart in front of 'interest'.

Fan Xi was a little sad.

Stephen Marbury came over, and he encouraged Fanhee: "Don't be influenced by these mediocre people. They don't understand your greatness at all. They only know single-handed and scoring, and they don't know what a point guard is. And, I think, you are the second best player in this training camp."

Chauncey Billups also came over and patted Fan Xie on the shoulder, and said to him, "You will definitely shine in tomorrow afternoon's game."

The camera faithfully recorded the whole process.

Chief director Steve stood on the sidelines, watching the whole process calmly.He already understood in his heart: the protagonist of the second episode is still Jack.

But, will Jack withstand this wave of pressure, perform perfectly in the game, and become the real protagonist?

In other words, he will sink because of this and become the first protagonist to be "sacrificed to heaven".

In this reality show, the first great conflict drama appeared.

Steve Joyce very much hoped that Fanhee could soar into the sky.

Because this show was the inspiration given by Fan Xie, emotionally, Joyce was extremely inclined towards Fan Xie.

However, in terms of hardware conditions, Fan Xie is really not like Marbury or Billups, or even Randy Livingston, who is a talent visible to the naked eye.

……

"I think you're trying to grow the seed." Isiah Thomas walked into the office. He said to Chuck Daly: "You shouldn't vote for that kid. He has become the target of the entire training camp."

"I'm worried he won't be able to handle the pressure."

The smiling assassin said worriedly.

Chuck Daly shook his head, and he replied: "My opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. I think he is the most mentally powerful kid in this training camp, and he will definitely perform."

"And, that's the only way. Be my last student, Chuck Daly."

When Isiah Thomas heard this, he was a little dazed. He didn't expect the teacher to speak so highly of Jack.

Close disciple?

OMG!

Thankfully the camera wasn't here.

If the American audience were to know that Jack Van was the last student admitted by Chuck Daly himself, it would arouse huge public opinion, and he would definitely be under unprecedented pressure.

He will be 16 years old in ten days.

He is still a child.
