Chapter 1 Wake Forest University Affiliates
United States, Windsor, North Carolina, Wake Forest University!
In this long-standing American university, it is particularly eye-catching because of an international student.
And this person is Lin Yan from China!
As the whole China, the first Chinese student invited to join Wake Forest University.
This is surprising enough.
More importantly, the reason he was invited was because of basketball!
To know.
The sport of basketball, especially in the 90s.
It has always been a movement dominated by Americans.
The dream team in the Olympic Games can be said to be invincible, and they turned the game into an exhibition match.
Even high school students and college students in the United States are full of talents and experts.
In such a country with an extremely strong basketball culture, any basketball team can digest it internally and find suitable players in the United States.
But Dave Odom, the head coach of the Devil’s Deacons at Wake Forest University, took a different approach and chose to invite Lin Yan from China to join the team.
Even Lin Yan spent his high school years in the United States.
But his identity, still at Wake Forest University, and even the entire NCAA league, has attracted a lot of attention.
The name Lin Yan has gradually become familiar to more people under this kind of attention.
It’s just that after Lin Yan joined the team and missed a game, this matter changed from curiosity to joke.
Now everyone’s ideas are extremely unified.
Dave Odom made an extremely stupid decision!
He introduced Chinese players, which is a joke in itself!
…………
Wake Forest University basketball practice hall.
Assistant coach John Jones looked sadly at head coach Dave Odom.
“Dave, I really don’t understand. There are so many good players in the United States. Why do you have a soft spot for a Chinese player?”
John Jones is extremely dissatisfied with Dave Odom’s choice.
To know.
Basketball itself is a black and white sport.
The explosive power, coordination, endurance and various talents of the body are extremely demanding.
But the impression that Lin Yan gave him was very poor.
During the physical test phase of the team, all the physical test data were in a mess.
Although in actual combat, some places are not bad, but it is definitely not excellent.
Plus this guy’s physical fitness is extremely poor.
Let him be a big colander on the defensive end.
What the fuck is that kind of super big colander!
It is no exaggeration to say that even an American player who has just come into contact with basketball can easily penetrate his defense!
John really can’t understand, such a Chinese player with extremely poor physical talent and indescribable defense.
What is the charm that Dave did not hesitate to use a full scholarship to invite him to join the team!
For John’s question, Dave Odom is still the rhetoric before.
“Trust me, John, I know what I’m doing!”
John Jones shook his head helplessly and turned to look at the athlete who was training.
“Everyone has it, run back and forth 50 times, whoever completes it last will practice 50 more times!”
Dave Odom did not stop John’s behavior, and instead focused on Lin Yan.
“Hey, this guy is really a headache, but there’s no way, who wants to have a rich dad?”
The reason why Dave Odom chose to invite Lin Yan to join the team is, in the final analysis, what the school wanted.
Wake Forest University, as a private school, is also necessary to accept donations from the society.
At the beginning, Lin Yan’s father, Lin Tianhai, raised donations to the school for three consecutive years.
The school director followed suit and invited his son to the school team!
Introduce Lin Yan’s words in a simple and direct way, that is the affiliate of the Devil’s Deacon Team!
For such a player, it’s not Dave who wants it, it’s impossible not to!
Today’s Devil Deacon team, the overall strength is still good.
Especially in the paint, with the best player in the entire ACC league – Tim Duncan.
As early as this summer’s draft, the Warriors, who won the No. 1 pick, said it once.
As long as Duncan is willing to participate in the draft, then their No. 1 pick will definitely choose Duncan!
Although Duncan finally gave up the opportunity to participate in the draft, it cannot be denied that his strength has been recognized by everyone.
Unfortunately.
The Devil’s Deacon team, which has the inside giant Duncan, has never been able to achieve any dazzling results on the NCAA stage.
This makes Dave Odom head coach, has been haunted by this matter.
He’s been on the hunt since last year, looking for a player who can really take the pressure off Duncan.
Duncan is an inside player anyway, and there is no way he can really compare to an outside player in terms of dominating the ball.
most of the time.
Still have to rely on outside players to open the situation.
A good organizer is even more important.
According to previous thinking, Dave Odom will lobby for a good guard this summer.
After all, what the team needs most now is a player who can make everyone move, a player who can connect the whole team.
Teams a lot now.
It’s all Duncan playing alone, four people watching!
Even if Duncan is very capable, this way of playing is fine against a team of average strength.
Once you encounter hard stubble, there is only one dead end.
The team has failed in the NCAA the past two years, and that’s it.
If you can get a strong defender, then I believe the team’s performance will be significantly improved!
What I didn’t expect was that good luck made people!
Not only did he not get the ideal player, he was also forced into a relationship!
This time, let alone the team’s achievements, even if it can continue to maintain, it is already lucky!
Even more annoying.
He can’t tell anyone about this, including his good partner, his good assistant John!
In the words of the school board, schools need positive reporting.
It is not the style of Wake Forest University to forcefully block households.
In this situation.
Dave Odom is the only one to blame…
At this moment, he has no choice but to sigh! *
