The top scholar is really not Lin Xingpiao.

If his goal is just to score in the NBA, then he can participate in the NBA draft this past summer.

With his body, his age, and a breakthrough that was very useful even though he had a quick move.

Even if there is no first round, the second round will definitely be selected.

But Lin Xing didn't, because he wanted a higher ranking.

Lin Xing ranked fifth in this Sports Illustrated Simulation Draft Ranking.

Look at the players ahead of him, Chris Webber of Michigan, Isiah Laidel of UNLV, Anthony Hardaway, and Grant Hill, who was locked up by him in this game.

First of all, Grant Hill is excluded. As a good-educated good boy, Hill will never run for the NBA without completing four years of college.

Of course, even if Hill runs for election, he is not Lin Xing's opponent.

This head-on battle has proved everything-

Lin Xing suffered various defenses, but still made 13 of 19 shots, efficiently scoring 28 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals.

Especially in the last moment, he scored 8 points alone and led the team to win.

In contrast, Grant Hill scored only 19 points in 8 of 22 shots, and was completely lost at the last moment.

After a game, the two of them were not on the same level at all.

Then the penny was ruled out. With the unremarkable record of Memphis University in the new season and the Long Beach School took off in various ways, the Linben dispute had already ended.

Now, Long Beach defeated Duke again, and Lin Xing further proved:

He is not a master of abuse. Facing a strong team, he is so strong that he stands tall.

Penns, which had been at a disadvantage in the public opinion battle, should naturally not be ranked before Lin Xing.

The remaining Weber and Isaiah Ledel are opponents who have not fought and have never had a verbal battle in public opinion.

But it's too soon. As long as the preseason ends, Lin Xing's next opponent will be Isiah Laidel.

As for Weber, his University of Michigan is really an unmatched opponent.

Last season, five freshmen from the University of Michigan joined forces to reach the NCAA finals.

As a result, the fame of "FabFive" spread like wildfire.

This season, the Michigan Five Tigers, who have been in the year, are naturally the NCAA champions.

In particular, defending champion Duke lost Christian Letterner, Louisiana's Shaquille O'Neal and Georgetown's Alonzo Mooning have all gone to the NBA.

Other NCAA insiders can't be the opponents of Chris Webber and Juwan Howard.

In addition, Jaylen Ross, Ray Jackson, who did not enter the NBA among the Five Tigers and Jamie King, who entered the NBA and played soy sauce.

The University of Michigan's lineup is without any blind spots.

With such an opponent, Lin Xing really didn't have the confidence to say anything to defeat them.

Even if he said that, Chris Tavern would not agree...

But if you want to say that you can't beat it? Lin Xing must not agree.

If the University of Michigan is on the front line, then Long Beach is strong on the outside line.

If you really fight, you can fight with each other and fight with each other, it is not certain who wins and loses.

The Michigan Five Tigers have lost the ball. They lost two of the most important games in their two years of team formation.

One game was the NCAA final last season, and they lost to Duke without any fighting back.

One was the NCAA final of this season, and they played to the last minute with North Carolina, which had Eric Montrose and George Lynch.

In the last 11 seconds, Webber grabbed the rebound and called a timeout without his team's timeout. As a result, he could only watch North Carolina, who was already one point ahead, execute a technical free throw.

Everyone is saying that Weber's mistake ruined the efforts of the University of Michigan for a season.

This game is a failure that has not happened yet, but in Lin Xing's opinion, it proves that the Five Michigan Tigers are not unbeatable.

...

Five days later, away, Long Beach easily defeated North Carolina State University led by Kevin Thompson.

Although Kevin Thompson is an inside player with a second round prospect for the NBA draft, Cherokee Parks in the first round was resisted by Long Beach, let alone Kevin Thompson in the second round?

Compared to Kevin Thompson, what Lin Xing feels more familiar with is Kevin Thompson's substitute, Todd Fowler, who was selected before Kobe in the 1996 draft.

Looking at Fowler, who was also performing well as a substitute, Lin Xing felt that the gap in the inside line of the Long Beach branch was getting bigger and bigger.

Looking at the soft Tavor, Lin Xing suddenly felt that it was not Byron Russell, but Chris Tavor.

"When I go back to Long Beach, I will pull this guy to practice defense. And Byron, I can't let it go..."

After North Carolina State University, Wake Forest—

Deng Dai is still studying hard at St. Donstein's Anglican Church High School. Only Rodney Rogers and Randolph Chaidris can rely on.

One is the best sixth man in the future NBA, and the other is also picked by the Pistons at the 19th pick in the first round in 1995.

In terms of strength, Wake Forest is definitely better than North Carolina State University, but they still failed to stop Long Beach's winning streak.

Lin Xing beat Randolph Chaidris against each other, and that's enough.

With a 10-game winning streak, the Long Beach School, which is the most popular, returns to California.

At this point, there are only the last four games left for the preseason at Long Beach.

They are the University of Arizona, Pepperdine University, UCLA and California State University at Fresno.

...

After returning to Long Beach, Lin Xing pulled Byron Russell and Chris Tavern and began fierce defensive exercises.

When the practice started, Russell was surprisingly positive.

The reason for the positive is of course that Lin Xing asked him to watch and learn hard in the game against Duke.

He really looked good and studied hard.

After looking at it, he felt that he was OK again.

Isn’t it just defense? Isn’t it just defense against an opponent who can only start cross-steps? It’s very simple!

Byron Russell's mind was full of pictures of Lin Xing defending Grant Hill, and he felt that he had mastered the true meaning of defense.

So he walked to the court with full confidence.

20 seconds later, Byron Russell covered his chest and watched Lin Xing gallop away with the ball.

"I've said a long time ago, Byron, I'm still a billion points away from your single defense. I have to see, learn, and practice!"

Lin Xing shook his head, Russell was very sad and angry: "But, Stah, you just waved your elbow!"

"So what about elbow swing? Are there rules prohibitions on elbow swing?"

"No...no?"

"Do you know how many elbows I gave Randolph Chaidris in the last game?"

Lin Xing stared at her eyes and raised her eight fingers, "Nine, do you know, nine!"

"Did you see the referee call me a foul on the offensive? No, none of them!"

Russell stared at his eyes and said to himself: You said it was already on the horse, wasn’t it just swinging your elbow? Who can’t?

Before Lin Xing joined the Long Beach school, Russell was not a good person, and elbow hitting and flying kicking were common.

The problem is that he dared not wave his elbow at Lin Xing. He always felt that if he elbowed, he would have to leave.

But now, Lin Xing has said that no matter whether it is offense or defense, he must raise his elbow.

Then what are you hesitating about? Come on!

Lin Xing looked at Russell who was eager to try it out and knew what this guy was thinking.

He would never give this guy a chance to avenge his private revenge, waved his hand,

He said, "Okay, I don't think you are a person who can't wave your elbows. Just practice it yourself!"

Then, he turned his head and hooked his finger at Chris Taver, who was watching the game on the sidelines: "It's up to you, Chris!"

Tavor stood opposite Lin Xing in fear. He saw the elbow that Lin Xing gave Russell when he broke through.

If Lin Xing also gave him such an elbow, would his ribs be healed?

He refused but couldn't refuse, so he could only go on the court with the idea of ​​"if the ribs are really broken, then rest for a season"...

As soon as he stood on the court, Lin Xing passed the ball to him.

"In this way, you attack and I defend. I will demonstrate to you what the correct defense should look like!"

For Tavor, there is not much difference in offense and defense, and he still looks ready to die.

Controlling the ball, Tavor gritted his teeth and attacked one.

Lin Xing did not put all his strength in defense, and he pretended not to follow Tavol's footsteps.
