Chapter 8: first meet


  Like the domestic university start dates, old American universities generally start on September 1st.
  At four o'clock in the afternoon, Richard asked Brownie Jr. to call the players of the school team. He was going to meet him first.
  The NCAA team’s training schedule has strict rules. In order not to affect the normal college progress of the players, the team cannot conduct training throughout September.
  Although many schools say that they will violate this rule, can't they train? Then let the players organize their own training, at most the coach will not come forward...
   But Richard did not mean to drill this loophole. In his view, it was completely unnecessary.
   The reason why he called the players today, he really just wanted to meet.
   At 4:30 in the afternoon, Brownie Jr. had already summoned the players. Rahim’s task has not been completed so far, so he is very concerned about other tasks arranged by Richard.
  ……
   The basketball hall of the school, as a famous basketball school, the basketball hall of Purdue University is naturally not small in size, and can accommodate 14,000 people on site.
  Although this scale is a bit unattractive compared to NBA stadiums, it is extremely amazing to know that this is only a university stadium.
   A row of ten people stood in front of Richard at the moment.
At this moment Richard's heart is full of pride, look at his lineup, three future All-Star players, and Brent Barry, the super dunk king and super three-pointer, even the NBA coach It is difficult to have the opportunity to coach such a luxurious team!
   "Jerome Green!"
   "To!"
  Richard took the list from Brownie Jr. and named each one.
   "Luke Bamot!"
   "To!"
   The first six people are the team's old players, most of them are the former sophomore and junior students.
   And the last four are Richard's harvest this holiday...
   "Brad Miller!"
   "To!"
  Richard looked in the direction of Miller. The size is indeed quite good. The height is the highest among the ten people. The typical height is seven feet inside.
   It's just that Miller's somewhat restrained and shy expression makes it impossible for Lei Feng to be connected with the villain Miller in the impression.
   But remembering the evaluation of the coaches and media in the past life about Miller, the villains on the field, the simple and gentle on the field, the restraints and shyness at the moment can also be explained clearly.
   "Ben-Wallace!"
   "To!"
   The sound of majestic power, resembling the sound of thunder, resounded throughout the basketball court, attracting other players to look sideways.
   Richard smiled, it is this taste, the beast big Ben!
   "Brent Barry!"
   "To!"
   Senior Barry, apparently looks much more stable than Miller and Omoto, with confidence on his face and gazing at Richard with a bright gaze.
   Richard smiled and nodded at Barry...
   "Allen-Iverson!"
   "To..."
   The voice is not very loud. If it wasn't for Richard, he would not have noticed this little man...
   is short, Richard's first impression of Iverson.
In fact, Iverson’s height has always been divergent. The official height is 1.83 meters, but Richard is sure that Iverson’s height is definitely less than 1.8 meters. At least at this time, there is absolutely no 1.8 meters. ...
  Because Richard is 1.8 meters tall, Iverson may be a little shorter than himself...
  Richard immediately turned his eyes back to Daben...
   "Good guy, the historical unsolved case was broken by two of me in a row today. Iverson's height is less than 1.8 meters, and Daben's height is two meters..." Lei Feng thought with a smile in his heart.
The reason why    can determine the height of Omoto is that Brent Barry standing beside him is 201 cm tall, and Omoto is almost as tall as Barry...
  ……
   As for Iverson's second impression on Richard, it was "mourning"...
   I feel that this kid doesn't care about any world in the world, it's all like going to his mother's face, and his face is full of unrequited love, as if what happened around him has nothing to do with him...
   But Richard, who is familiar with Iverson's temperament, doesn't care. This is exactly what attracts Iverson.
  ……
  The names of all ten people were all finished, the number was a little small, but Richard thought it was enough.
   NCAA teams do not have strict restrictions on the number of team members like the NBA, but the general number is about 12 to 15 people. If there are only 10 people, it is not a violation of the rules.
  In essence, there is no difference between the NCAA basketball team and other clubs in the university. The basketball team can also recruit an unlimited number of members, but most of the members are soy sauce and there are no scholarships.
  Like those drama clubs and dance clubs, the one who can finally perform on stage is definitely the best in the club...
   And these ten people in front of Richard are the best, the best with the full scholarship...
   cleared his throat, Richard said slowly with an open mouth.
   "First of all, on behalf of Purdue University, congratulations to the four new players to join the boiler team!"
   "The history of the Boiler Works team is extremely brilliant. I'm afraid you have seen it before entering the school. Tell me, what do you think?"
   Brent-Barry stood up first, it seemed he was prepared...
"Coach Li, our team's history has won a national championship, and then there are two final semifinals, countless elite quarterfinals and sweet sixteen. Last season, we won the sweet sixteen seat! "
  Richard nodded. Originally, he was still a little worried about the fact that Little Barry had some on the stove because of his status as a son of a famous child. Now he is at ease. Little Barry’s tutoring is quite good...
   "Yes, what you said is very good. The reason why Purdue University is a famous basketball school is precisely because of this brilliant team history!"
   "However, I wonder if you have noticed how long we have not won the championship!"
   "The only championship in team history was 1932, which is more than sixty years from now!"
   For more than sixty years, more than half a century, when Richard said this, he also clearly felt the weight of Purdue team history!
   "And in the next two years, UU reading www.uukanshu.com or even this season, I want to lead you to re-savour the taste of winning the championship more than sixty years ago!"
  Richard's words were a bit bland, and they didn't scream like those passionate coaches.
  Because he is very clear, he will say it now, no one will believe it!
  Big dogs have gone to the draft? Do you still want to win? !
   No new recruits have been recruited. The only gain in the whole new season is probably the transfer of the mini bar!
   In this case, the brave words to win the championship is tantamount to a fool's dream!
  ……
   Sure enough, after hearing Richard's words, the old Philip not far away intentionally reminded Richard that the team's current situation is not to mention winning the championship, it is good to be able to rush out of the Big Ten league...
  But considering that doing so would damage the majesty of Richard's head coach, old Philip simply kept silent.
  The players looked at each other and won the championship? This goal can be scary...
  To know that last season, the strong and strong, only the sweet sixteen, if Richard set the goal of this season in the sixteen, they may accept...
   "Coach, we..." The old man in the team, Jerome Green, said that he wanted to speak.
   "Well? What's wrong with us?" Richard frowned and looked over...
   "The rest of our old players are all capable..."
   "And the four newcomers who have just joined have little experience..."
   "Our strength, I am afraid..."
   Although Green supports us, the meaning is obvious, that is, the remaining old players are generally not strong, the newcomers have no experience, and there is no hope of winning...
