Even Kobe, Griffin, Garnett, Jordan and others felt their blood boiling. They never expected that in a confrontation match, they could see such a ball. In the last 29 seconds, when the score was behind by two points, Li Changgeng actually made a shot. Scored such a three-pointer and overtook the score.
At this time, the white team took the lead by one point!
This is the winning shot, with 15 seconds left in the clock, the white team leads, and the red team has another chance to attack. They have a chance to kill the white team, or they may lose.
The coach of the red team called a timeout. Regarding Li Changgeng's super long-range three-pointer just now, he could only smile helplessly.
"Okay, forget about the ball just now, cheer up, there are still 15 seconds, and we have another chance to attack." The coach of the red team said, "This last attack is still handed over to Nick, and the others will pick and roll for him. Create an opportunity."
"Yes." Several people nodded, there was no time to think too much, and the top priority was to make the last attack well.
For the White team, Griffin first praised Li Changgeng, and then made some arrangements for his opponent's players. In fact, it was just two words - defense!
"As long as we defend this goal, the victory belongs to us. Come on, boys!" Griffin said loudly.
Everyone nodded and stepped onto the field.
When the ball came to the frontcourt, Gatlin took possession of the ball and signaled his teammates to start to move. Everyone in the red team started to run immediately, and so did Nick. The four of them were like fish, swimming on the field, and the others were picking and rolling for Nick. So that he can catch the ball.
In 10 seconds, Nick finally caught the ball.
This was the game-winning shot, so it was impossible to make a hasty shot, so he steadied himself and started attacking when no one came to double-team him.
6 seconds, 5 second.
Nick made a disguise, turned his body around the ball, threw off the defender, then jumped up instantly, and threw the ball.
With a "bang", the basketball hit the rim and bounced into the air, the white team center Maslow got the rebound, and the whistle for the end of the game also sounded.
it is finally over!
With the sound of the final whistle, the timer turned into a series of zeros, and the number on the scoreboard was fixed at 87:86. The white team narrowly beat the red team by one point.
Cheers sounded, and the white team, whether they were players on the field or on the bench, cheered unrestrainedly.
Originally, everyone could not see hope and lost confidence, but the arrival of Li Changgeng, the hard work of the last session, let them see hope, returned to heaven from hell, finally bathed in the holy light of heaven, and got the lost and recovered champion.
There is no doubt that Li Changgeng is the biggest contributor to the victory for the White team. In the fourth quarter, he scored 25 points in a single quarter. His performance was abnormal and impressive.
"Haha, we won!"
"Finally won."
Xu Anya, Li Zheng, Maslow, Subaru and others rushed towards Li Changgeng with a clatter, and surrounded Li Changgeng one by one.
The white team's substitute players on the sidelines of the court, both men and women, rushed onto the court in an instant, and together with the crowd, completely drowned Li Changgeng.
"Hey, let me out, I'm going to be crushed to death!" Li Changgeng shouted in the crowd, and his heart was full of joy.
This is not only his personal victory, but also the victory of the entire white team. They defended their glory with sweat and hard work and won the championship!
Kobe, Griffin, Zhang Weiping, and others also laughed.
The reporter Garnett came forward with the cameraman, and Marco pointed the camera at the players of the white team and recorded the scene.
Jordan came to Kobe's side and said: "Griffin, I want to discuss with you about Lee. You know, he is a very good player and a talented young man. I am very interested in him, no Do you know if I can get in touch with him?"
"Oh?" Kobe asked in surprise, "Jordan, are you trying to lure Lee to your Los Angeles California high school? I must remind you that he is an oriental man. If you want him to go to Los Angeles California high school, you must first get Lee's If you agree, you need to convince your school. In addition, you must also settle the issue of student status."
"Yes, I want him to come to our California High School in Los Angeles and play for the school team. I believe he is the player we have been looking for." Jordan said seriously, "Of course, I also know that he still needs to apply for permission to come to California High School in Los Angeles." There are a lot of formalities, there are a series of problems that need to be resolved. However, I have been impressed by his skills, and I hope to get in touch with him first."
Kobe laughed: "Of course this is fine, I will arrange it, and this is also a good thing for Li, isn't it?"
"Thank you." Jordan said with a smile, looking at Li Changgeng who was celebrating with everyone on the field, he really liked this young man.
But after a while, more than 5 people came to look for Kobe, including scouts and some people in the basketball industry, all expressed their interest in Li Changgeng.
Li Changgeng helped the team win by 21 points. Such a report card is simply gorgeous.Everyone has a feeling, as if seeing a new star rising.
It is conceivable that in the near future, this new star will inevitably become more and more brilliant, and whoever can draw him to his side the earliest will also benefit the earliest.
After dealing with these people, Kobe looked at Li Changgeng with a smile, and said to himself, "Li, I also hope that you can come to the United States to develop."
After losing the game, the members of the red team were naturally unhappy and somewhat disappointed, but the game was over, and everyone hugged and encouraged each other with the players of the white team.
When it was Li Changgeng's turn to embrace Nick, Nick suddenly said, "You are amazing, but I won't give up just now! I won't give up Selena to you."
"Oh?" Li Changgeng said indifferently, "Then let's wait and see."
....
On the other side, the 18-year-old age group also divided the winners and losers.
In the end, the white team defeated the red team by 34 points by virtue of Sima Shenji's 6 points, and won the championship of the 18-year-old age group.
As a result, Sima Shenji was elected as the mvp of the 18-year-old age group as a matter of course.
At the awards ceremony, Kobe also spoke highly of Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, two young Chinese people, and gave them MVP medals.
Sima Shenji scored 34 points and Li Changgeng scored 25 points in a single quarter. There is no doubt about the strength of the two, and they deserved to be the mvp. Everyone applauded and cheered.
Finally, Kobe announced that the training part of this training camp is over, and he brought everyone a surprise. He will take everyone to the Staples Arena tomorrow, which won unanimous cheers from everyone.
Although there will be no Lakers game tomorrow, and we won't be able to see the Lakers playing games with other teams, but it is good to visit the arena.
"Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji." After the award presentation, Zhang Weiping waved to Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, "Come here."
Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji followed Zhang Weiping to the side, and Xiaoli was also there. Zhang Weiping then spoke, with a hint of excitement in his tone, "I want to tell you some good news."
"Huh?" Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji couldn't help but stare at Zhang Weiping.
"Hehe." Zhang Weiping laughed, "Kobe came to me just now and conveyed the invitations from several high schools such as Los Angeles California High School. These high schools hope that you two can go to their schools, and they can handle it for you. Study abroad procedures, provide you with scholarships, as long as you can join the school team and represent their school in the National High School League."
"Ah!" Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji looked at each other in surprise.
Zhang Weiping looked at Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, and persuaded: "Think about it carefully, these high schools are all very good high schools." At this point, he suddenly realized, and said: "By the way, I'd better give it to you first. You guys explain the National High School Basketball League."
"No! We're not going!"
The two replied in unison.
"why?"
Zhang Weiping was very surprised that some people would not go, this is a golden opportunity for countless young people.
"We want to win the championship!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying in unison.
How could the original dream be given up casually? This is their common wish, so neither of them will abandon the other.
Zhang Weiping looked at the serious faces of the two people and nodded. He didn't say anything. In fact, what the two said was really suitable for him. The best thing is to not forget the original. Only then will he be promising, this is what Zhang Weiping thinks in his heart.
At this time, Xiao Er also poked his head out and said.
"If you don't go, don't go. With me, you can improve your ability wherever you are. When you have the strength to participate in the NBA, with the Chinese market, you don't need to be afraid of not being selected high in the draft."
Li Changgeng nodded.
"But don't reject them first, and leave a way out. After all, the American basketball atmosphere is very good, and it is not impossible to come here to communicate. Of course, if you do not meet the domestic conditions, you can come here."
The second continued.
"Understood!" Li Changgeng nodded, very cautiously.
Soon, Kobe conveyed the refusal of Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji to Jordan and others, which made Jordan and others feel extremely disappointed.
When the news spread, all the students were also surprised. They didn't expect such a good opportunity, but the two would reject it. Is it because of arrogance or other reasons?
For a while, everyone began to speculate.

"Hey, hello." Kobe put the ball away and greeted everyone.
"Wow"
In an instant, everyone rushed forward and surrounded Kobe, expressing their love and admiration for Kobe.
In the middle of the crowd, Kobe smiled and talked to everyone, without any airs of a superstar, just like a kind senior, carefully guiding everyone.
"I haven't moved for a long time after retiring. Who is interested in playing with me today?"
"boom"
In an instant, everyone was boiling, and they all jumped and raised their hands.
If it was against other masters, everyone might hesitate, fearing losing face, but against Kobe, even if you lose, you don't lose face, so everyone is very enthusiastic.
Kobe looked around among the crowd, finally fixed on Li Changgeng, and said with a smile, "Li, come out."
"Yeah!" Li Changgeng shouted in his heart, more and more people came out.
Hearing Kobe call out Li Changgeng's name, everyone else was disappointed for a while, but there was nothing to complain about. Li Changgeng is the mvp of the 17-year-old age group, and he scored 25 points in a single quarter. His strength is beyond doubt. Since he wants to compete with Kobe , Naturally choose the person with the strongest ability.
This morning, Kobe asked everyone to put on their jerseys, and told everyone that they can play for a while at the Staples Arena and feel the joy of playing in the Staples Arena, so Li Changgeng is fully equipped , Just take off your coat.
"Can I warm up for a while?" Li Changgeng looked at Kobe and asked in fluent English.
"Of course." Kobe smiled and nodded, seeing that Li Changgeng was a little nervous, he comforted him: "Take it easy, just hit a few balls casually, it's okay."
"Yeah." Li Changgeng nodded. Kobe shook his hand and passed the ball to Li Changgeng.
The basketball fell into the basket in an instant, and Li Changgeng then ran to the bottom line to grab a rebound, then came out again, and then made a three-pointer, and the cycle continued.
