Chapter 9: Instinctive Reactions

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Handle it with care!

Henry Bibby, with a dark expression, strode into the court and shouted: "Enough! Anyone who still wants to fight, get out! The team does not need you!"

Without Sam Krancy, the opportunities for White Mamba's outside shooting have diminished

In other words, this kid might truly be a genius

Henry Bibby was persuaded, and he looked at the still conflicted Li Ao, feeling even more displeased. He walked to the corner opposite and berated Sam Clancy harshly.

Fortunately, it was Evanysco beside him who directly embraced Li Ao, as the latter had already lifted his leg, almost kicking Sam Clancy in the chest.

Li Ao, on the other hand, was taken aback with a start

However, Sam Hayes' words, he actually finds them quite reasonable

Although they were somewhat concerned about Li Ao's direct action without any discussion, it was not them who were being beaten, and moreover, it was Sam Clancy who, when pushed to the limit, disregarded sportsmanship first

Sam Hayes clearly remembers the first question that Li Ao asked him - "If the referee did not see my foul, does that mean it is not considered a foul?"

Just now, Granville broke through the double team and passed the ball to Li Ao on the left side of the free-throw line. Upon receiving the ball, Li Ao immediately turned and passed it out, both quickly and accurately, delivering it to Brucenthal, which allowed the latter to make a quick pass.

In the final minutes of the first half, Sam Clancy was overly arrogant, yet they had no effective means to counter it

"You two go down and calm down, Jeff, Brian, you come up..." After arranging things here, Henry Bibby shouted at the onlookers, "What are you looking at? Focus on your game!"

He pondered this question for a full two days

That location is precisely where Li Ao was just elbowed.

Without any surprises, Sam Clancy was closely marked by Li Ao in a situation where he did not have an absolute advantage in strength

Just now, Li Ao's block took advantage of the referee's blind spot.

Henry Bibby walked over to Team A, which was celebrating, with a darker expression on his face

Moreover, it appears that the relationship between Li Ao and Samuhai Yes is quite poor. According to Brown, Li Ao trains so hard on the defensive end in order to slap Samuhai Yes in the face, as he feels that Samuhai Yes looks down on him

However, in the second half, their star forward Alex Ayuso repeatedly fell victim to malicious fouls, and the opposing team's actions became increasingly aggressive. Ultimately, they were overturned in the second half and were eliminated in the first round

However, Li Ao's pass this time left a deep impression on him

The Nate-Haier mentality is about to be blown up, directly giving up, and immediately passing it over without any hesitation

This point has also been noted by Henry Bibby

Henry Bibby glanced at Li Ao and said, "He must regret it, regretting taking action in front of so many people"

In addition, he felt that Li Ao seemed to be running even faster than on the day of the trial training

Xavier Johnson is a kind-hearted person who appreciates hardworking players, which is why he favors Li Ao, a sentiment that Henry Bibby can understand

If Sam Clancy does not play isolation, he can actually be a good threat for penetration. By using screens or taking advantage of opportunities to cut backdoor when off the ball, he can greatly mitigate the fact that his speed is not particularly outstanding, allowing him to leverage his explosive power advantage.

However, Sam Hayes, known for his eccentric personality, was expelled from a prestigious university despite his considerable abilities

As for Team A, Li Ao sitting on the bench did not affect their overall strength; he was originally an extra. Taking down the opponent's fierce forward is a significant gain.

At the end of August, Li Ao's strength test during the trial was also outstanding, but compared to Sam Clancy, there is still a significant gap.

He was certain that this kid could not have held anything back at that time; this kid was eager to showcase everything about himself.

Returning to the backcourt, Rashad Jones, Brucenthal, and Evanisco, along with 3 teammates, went forward to high-five and celebrate with Li Ao

The two characters of loyalty and righteousness are vividly embodied

Granville's ball feeding is also excellent; he shows no sense of strain when catching the ball in mid-air. He is able to exert full force when dunking the ball, which allows for such an expansive slam dunk

The referee could not see it, but the three coaches on this side did. When Li Ao jumped against Sam-Ke and Tushulanxi, he grabbed Sam-Ke Lansi's jersey, pulling down with his left hand during the jump to block, which not only restricted Sam-Ke Lansi's jump but also used that force to make him jump higher in the confrontation, barely managing to block the shot.

500-word reflection

Sam Hayes suddenly said, "Henry, don't you think we are being too soft?"

The side effects of "fist is justice"

Does Sam Hayes also think this kid is a genius

However, what Sam Hayes refers to as 'special' is not limited to just this aspect

The score is 49 to 50, Team A has narrowed the gap to 1 point

Li Ao's defensive training has reached the stage of confrontation training, but the trainers all feel that this is a tough job and are unwilling to do it. The intensity of the new confrontation is too great! The strength is comparable to that of the muscular Sam Clancy, and the defensive movements are extremely rough, leaving the trainers battered and bruised after each session.

He murmured, "If we had players like Leo or Shelby in '97, the opponents wouldn't dare to commit fouls against Alex..."

Both teams of players gathered around, and the scene became chaotic. The attention of the people on the adjacent court was also drawn to this side, as they all paused their actions to look over, curious about what had happened

This is the reason why Sam Clancy was not utilized last season

That does not comply with the rules

This ball is satisfying

Henry Bibby was puzzled; where did this kid get such charm from

In just over a month, has this kid's strength increased so significantly?

As a technical advisor, he believes that he should not teach anything that is not good

It was not until the second time he guided Li Ao in special training that he said to Li Ao, "Not counted"

Although it is an intra-team competition, it is just like playing a casual game; the joy of playing basketball sometimes does not depend on the level of the competition, but purely on the happiness it brings. The players of Team A are excitedly celebrating and have also called upon Li Ao

The task has actually been completed

Henry Bibby was infuriated upon hearing this

With the exception of a very few individuals, the majority of the players on the basketball team have not performed well

Sam Clancy www.hetushu.com The close-range shot felt quite good, the ball hit the backboard and fell into the hoop, but the referee's whistle had already sounded, offensive foul by Sam Clancy

However, the actual situation is quite different

Beside them, Brown said to Henry Bibby: "Coach, please don't be angry anymore. Look, Leo has already regretted it."

Sam, don't scare me, coach! I have a small heart!

It is once again Team B's turn to attack, and Sam Clancy continues to request the ball for a one-on-one against Li Ao

Sam Clancy, to put it nicely, he is someone who fights bravely and never gives up; to put it bluntly, he is just single-minded.

Sam Clancy was about to open his mouth to angrily shout at the referee to express his dissatisfaction when a slap landed on his mouth, silencing him, and the tremendous force knocked him over, both his mouth and his body tumbling down.

These words calmed Henry Bibby down and transformed his expression into one of surprise

Who arranged for you to give this kid special training

On the court, Li Ao excitedly high-fived Granville in celebration

Ultimately, with two mid-range shots from Trepagniere, Team A extended their lead to 11 points and maintained it until the end, winning the intra-squad training match with a score of 104 to 93

Do not harbor grudges overnight; Li Ao, who was elbowed, retaliated directly

Is it difficult to reflect on matters such as the report during the time of enjoying blessings from a previous life? After the incident of 'What is CNKI', is it difficult to find ways to revise the thesis?

He relies solely on his physical strength to make breakthroughs, but despite having top-tier strength from university, his skills are lacking, and his speed is only at a first-class level, lacking the truly unstoppable impact of Ron Artest.

The teammates expressed sympathy for Li Ao

Just now, he indeed had a somewhat exaggerated instinctive reaction

I did not expect that today Samu Hayes said 5 sentences, 3 of which were in support of Li Ao

But Henry Bibby saw something else - Li Ao's direct set to the bottom line

It is once again the B team's offensive turn, and Sam Clancy, with an even darker expression, continues to demand the ball. Nate Hale, driven by his instincts as a point guard, feels that he should not pass the ball anymore, but the opposing team's attitude is firm, and he still passes it over.

Then that *picture* book fellow must be wondering where to bury you

"Henry, it is quite normal for young people to be impulsive; weren't you young once as well?" Xavier-Johnson is clearly addressing the person rather than the matter at hand

How can the instinctive reaction be so intense

Sam Clancy, who was scolded to the point of being drenched in blood, let out a puzzled "Huh?"

On the field, Team A began to take the initiative

The reasons are very sufficient; whoever acts first is at fault

Xavier Johnson was directly cheering from the sidelines

After undergoing high-intensity training, physical fitness has been significantly enhanced, resulting in considerable improvements in strength without a noticeable increase in body weight

Clearly, I could have waited for a time when no one was around to deal with that guy, but instinctively I retaliated, and now I've gotten myself into trouble

Xavier Johnson recalled the first round of the 1997 NCAA tournament, where they faced the University of Illinois Fighting Illini. Their strength was not inferior to that of their opponents, and they performed even better in the first half, leading by 11 points at halftime

He has witnessed what it is like when Li Ao becomes irritable

Do not be deceived by his muscular physique; he is not skilled in fighting. Although he appears to be rough and unreasonable, he is actually quite timid, and he does not dare to retaliate when teased by Shelby-Jordan.

Did this fellow see the opportunity to pass once he reached the bottom line

Li Ao defended with greater confidence and improved his defense, although he was unable to seal the deal again, he closely marked Sam Clancy, leaving him no opportunity

This feeling is truly special, bullying those introverted students from the computer science department while playing wall ball does not evoke the same sensation when dunking.

Sam Clancy, who had been stunned by the slap and was about to retaliate, also calmed down and felt a bit of fear.

Moreover, the system notification has arrived

"Ha, how is that possible..." Although Brown said this, he also felt the same way, even speculating that if Li Ao had not retaliated directly, he might have already been in a place to be beaten up, possibly in a small training ground

The team members immediately stepped aside upon seeing the head coach, leaving Li Ao alone.

Henry Bibby retorted: "I was impulsive when I was young, but I am not a ticking time bomb"

Among the more than 50 players present, the majority are Black, with 80% being athletes with special talents, and a portion admitted through the "Black quota" for enrollment

The block and the alley-oop dunk were incredibly impressive! Although he didn't jump high enough, Li Ao's tall and slender physique still made it visually appealing

So you are all good people, and I am the only bad one

In the end, Henry Bibby still offered a piece of advice: "For the time being, do not go out alone; always find a companion when you come and go"

As Team A launched an attack, Brusentahl, positioned near the baseline, received a transitional pass from Li Ao, and then assisted Evanisko, who successfully scored with a layup.

500-word reflection, it is a matter of life and death

The players of Team A all believe that this goal is the result of Brucenthar's efforts. The internal pass was executed beautifully, the timing was perfectly grasped, and the ball was delivered comfortably

Henry Bibby shook his head slightly, perhaps by coincidence, during the trial, Li Ao's ball control ability was merely at a playful level among his classmates

Don't mention 500; even 5000 is not a problem!

Li Ao sat down on a nearby chair in frustration, watching Sam Clancy, who was hiding in the corner across the court. He felt a deep sense of regret.

... ...

After the head coach finished scolding the players, his mood noticeably improved. Xavier Johnson said, "Henry, I think Sam is right; we need players like Leo."

Although this has nothing to do with what he taught, it is cool!

Henry Bibby sternly reprimanded Li Ao for his lack of composure, and finally said: "Go back and write a reflection, at least 500 words, and submit it to me by Monday's training"

The onlookers, Henry and Bibi, were quite disappointed

Li Ao instantly calmed down

This fellow is not only thinking about it, but is actually taking such precautions

Indeed, Sam Clancy made a strong drive to the basket but missed the jump shot again, while Brusentahl secured the defensive rebound.

As he approached closer, he saw Evanesque closing in. Unable to get past Li Ao, Sam Clancy became anxious and, in a fit of frustration, elbowed Li Ao, finally gaining the space to throw the ball out.

Li Ao surprisingly managed to hold his ground against Sam Clancy! Although it is evident that Sam Clancy still possesses greater strength, the gap is no longer significant.

Everyone quickly dispersed and went about their business
