This Forward is Not Serious

Chapter 24 Lin Ying's New Nickname

In fact, there was a similar round on the court when he just returned from the second quarter.

It's just that it was Augustine who shot the ball at that time, and Lin Ying didn't directly attack again after serving the ball and grabbing the offensive rebound.

But the same thing is, after Lin Ying finished the analysis, she felt that the ball would not be scored, so she went to grab the rebound in advance.

This is why Lin Ying didn't tell Durant before the suspension.

It's impossible for him to say: I know you can't make a shot, so I'm already thinking about how to grab the frontcourt, right?

But the final result was the same as his analysis.

With the execution shown by Kansas in the last attack, it was very difficult for Durant to score the lore.

This is no longer simply a matter of trust or distrust, but consideration of all possibilities just to win.

The next second, the arena was filled with cheers from the University of Texas fans.

If it wasn't for the fact that the game wasn't over yet, they would have rushed to the field to surround Lin Ying and shout.

There are still 2 seconds left in the game.

Kansas has no timeouts!

They can only serve from the backcourt.

"Protect the backcourt!"

Just then Wendell yelled to remind him.

He's the only senior on the field at Texas, and his experience comes into play in crunch time as well.

The University of Texas quickly retreated to the backcourt, blocking the long pass route from Kansas' backcourt.

Kansas couldn't play fast, and Cowen could only pass the ball to Chalmers in the backcourt.

Not much time, Chalmers dribbled and directly chose the backcourt three-pointer.

"beep!"

The moment he shot, the red lights on the sidelines also turned on.

It was a shot of despair, but it was also a shot of hope.

Before the ball falls into the basket, who knows if God will be happy and give you a lucky value of +999.

Although the NCAA's lore is not as many as the NBA, it is not without it!

Kansas fans all looked eagerly at Chalmers' shot.

Maybe, maybe, maybe God is free today?

But before they could think too much, a hand had already appeared in their field of vision.

"boom!"

Durant had been staring at Chalmers for a long time. Although his jumping speed was not as fast as that of Chalmers, he couldn't stand up to his height and long arms!

At this moment, he slashed out from the side, and directly slapped the ball with a big hat!

This block really blows away their last hope, completely desperate!

And Durant really dared to cover it.

You must know that Chalmers has already made a shooting action. If he hits his hand and is called a foul, the three free throw opportunities, with Chalmers' free throw level, Kansas will firmly accept this game.

But no if!

After the blocked shot, Durant roared excitedly at the Kansas fans on the sidelines.

Won!

They really won! !

They really really beat Kansas! ! !

After roaring, he quickly remembered something, turned around and quickly ran to Lin Ying, pushed Lin Ying, and roared again.

Compared to her own blocks, it was Lin Ying's putback that really allowed the University of Texas to win the game!

If there is no tip-up, then the result of this game is that he failed the lore and the University of Texas regretfully lost.

But now, because of Lin Ying, they won!

The other University of Texas players, including those off the court, have all rushed to the court, including the fans on the University of Texas side.

Next up, it's UT celebration time!

"Kenny, I honestly didn't expect the game to end like this."

At the commentary booth, Barkley and the others, who had been forced to stop commenting because of the loud cheers from the University of Texas, could finally speak now.

Barkley's first words are also true.

According to the feeling given by the two sides in the second quarter, this should be the script of Durant VS University of Kansas.

So in the end it should be Durant's lore or the lore failed.

No one would have thought that Lin Ying would be the one who would decide the outcome of the match in the end!

"What was his name?"

Barkley finished feeling, and then asked again.

"Lin Ying."

Smith replied with a smile, and he knew that Barkley really paid attention to Lin Ying this time.

"Shadow? What do you mean?"

Lin Ying's name was "Lin" Buckley already knew that what he cared about was Lin Ying's name.

Just like when we see a foreigner's name and want to translate it, he also wants to know what Lin Ying's name means in English.

"Shadow, shadow."

Smith did his homework quite well.

"interesting."

Barkley smiled and touched his chin after listening to Smith's answer.

Smith turned to look at him suspiciously.

"Durant is the light, the 'Light of Texas', and Lin is the shadow, the shadow hidden in the darkness.

The light attracts all attention, but it is the shadow that deals the killing blow. "

Barkley went on to say something so cultured that Smith stared at him wide-eyed.

But don't say it, it really sounds like that.

The most dazzling person at the University of Texas tonight must be Durant, who scored 29 points in the second half and broke a career record.

But if it wasn't for the tipping lore at the end, many people would not have noticed Lin Ying's organization and passing.

These two are indeed the feeling of light and shadow.

"I'm looking forward to their performance in 'Crazy Three' now."

Barkley then spoke again.

Tonight's game made him pay a lot more attention to the University of Texas.

On the court, the celebration of the University of Texas continued.

And at this moment, Durant dragged Lin Ying to the technical platform.

Look at that posture, he is going to pull Lin Ying to jump on the technical stage together!

Lin Ying has suction cups under his feet, this kind of thing is definitely not suitable for him.

In the end, Durant couldn't pull him up, so he kicked his feet and jumped up directly!

"This.is.our.house!"

After jumping into the auditorium, the excited Durant even pointed his hands at the fans in front of him and shouted.

He really knows how to play!

This sentence instantly ignited all the University of Texas fans present.

This is their horse... oh no, this is their home field!

Even Kansas can't win here!

In the next second, Williams and Abrams also jumped onto the technical stage.

There was an overwhelmed sound from the technical desk.

"Longhorn! Longhorn!"

The three people on the technical stage nodded and stretched out their hands, and the scene was quickly led by them to shout slogans.

Be brave and not afraid of difficulties!

This scene is spectacular to watch.

Looking at the three funny comparisons above, Lin Ying laughed unconsciously.

It feels really good to have such a group of people as teammates.

At this moment, he felt someone put his shoulder on his shoulder, and when he looked back, it was Tucker.

Tucker didn't say anything, but his eyes were red, and then he patted him on the shoulder.

Lin Ying could feel his hands trembling slightly.

At this moment, Tucker is also very proud.

...

After the celebration was over, the players returned to the locker room with howls.

If you can't understand their emotions at the moment, just refer to a football fan hearing the news that the men's football team has entered the World Cup.

What they defeated was Kansas, which ranked third in the latest "Power Ranking" and pushed the University of Texas, which had the "Trident" last year, to the ground!

This will keep them excited until they can't sleep!

After a while, Springman came in.

"Nice job guys!"

Springman is really familiar with the players.

His entry also drew another burst of screaming from the players.

"Kevin, you're doing great."

Springman then said to Durant.

Although the final lore goal was missed, it could not conceal Durant's excellent performance tonight.

A career-high 37 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks in a single game.

This kind of performance is second to none in the entire first-tier league this year.

"Ross, how was my last block?"

But what Springman didn't expect was that Durant replied to him with such a sentence.

He froze for a moment, then laughed.

Since he asked Durant to improve his defense before, Durant has talked about defense every time.

Even on such a career night, he still cares more about his block than breaking the record.

"Great! Very good!"

Springman smiled and stretched out his fist.

Durant happily got up and punched him after seeing it.

"I have another piece of good news to tell you all."

Springman's next words lifted the team members' emotions again.

"The staff of the alliance came to us just now, and we were invited to participate in the media meeting!"

What he said next caused the players to cheer again in the locker room.

Good things come in pairs!

After saying some words of encouragement, Springman led Lin Ying out of the locker room alone.

"You saved the team."

Springman knew Lin Ying's character, and this kind of private affirmation was more suitable than public praise.

Lin Ying was at a loss when she heard it.

Being so privately affirmed by the coach, he doesn't know how to do well.

Springman smiled and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, but didn't say anything further.

"Just now someone said that it was a reporter from "Basketball Pioneer", a Chinese reporter, and said he wanted to interview you."

This is why Springman called Lin Ying out alone.

Before this, no Chinese reporter had ever said that they wanted to interview Lin Ying, and the other party also had a certificate, which may be a very important thing for Lin Ying.

Because if there is no report, no one in China may know that Lin Ying is playing in the NCAA.

Although the Internet is more developed than before, there is still relatively little communication, especially the NCAA, which is basically invisible.

"I don't seem to see it."

Lin Ying raised her head in confusion.

"His press card was not allowed to interview in the front row. He should have stood in the audience to watch the game."

"I can go there with you to have a look."

Springman opened his mouth to explain, he knew that Lin Ying was not very good at communicating, and added another sentence after speaking.

Lin Ying nodded.

The Frank Owen Center has complete facilities and is naturally equipped with offices for foreign guests.

After Lin Ying followed Springman to push the door in, she saw the person sitting inside.

Although he was much younger than he remembered, but when he saw that face, he recognized him immediately.

Yang Yi, a well-known basketball commentator in China.

At this time, Yang Yi was only in his early 30s, with long hair, gold-framed glasses, and an unknown watch on his hand, which was very contemporary.

Seeing them coming in, Yang Yi immediately got up and stretched out his hand to Springman, and then thanked him.

After shaking hands with Springman, he looked at Lin Ying excitedly.

"I still have something to do, you guys talk first, I'll come back later."

After speaking, Springman smiled and patted Lin Ying on the shoulder, then left the office.

It's a bit strange for him to stay on-site for two Chinese people to conduct interviews.

As soon as Springman left, Yang Yi couldn't wait to introduce herself to Lin Ying.

And after a brief exchange, he knew Lin Ying's character, and he was very active during the interview, and he kept talking.

This made Lin Ying feel more comfortable.

Before time travel, Lin Ying loved basketball, and naturally watched many NBA games, and well-known commentators naturally knew about it.

He has heard of Yang Yi, Su Qun, Zhang Weiping, and Yu Jia more or less.

And when he was a child, he also liked to read "Basketball Pioneer" and "Sports Weekly" like everyone else.

Although he couldn't afford it due to economic conditions, it was a common occurrence at that time that someone bought a newspaper and passed it on to the whole class.

Especially the "Basketball Pioneer", which was the most widely circulated at that time, and it was the "first basketball newspaper" in many people's minds.

Therefore, Lin Ying had an early impression of Yang Yi, who often appeared in newspaper reports as his signature.

Although Yang Yi's commentary level will not keep up with the development of basketball in the future, he often slaps himself in the face, but at least at this stage his professional ability is still very strong.

Among other things, he was already at the forefront of reporters who came to report on the NCAA alone.

"Have you ever thought about giving yourself a nickname."

The two were chatting, and Yang Yi asked Lin Ying.

It is very common to nickname stars in this era, especially in China, where a resounding nickname can quickly gain popularity among fans.

"Little Giant", "Black Mamba", "Little Emperor", "German Chariot", "Zonda", "Stone Buddha"...

These are the most widely circulated nicknames in China now.

Lin Ying shook her head.

He didn't even think about it when Durant asked him his jersey number, let alone his nickname.

"commander?"

Yang Yi took the initiative to help Lin Ying advise.

Lin Ying froze for a moment.

"The way you play, you control the rhythm of the game, it's very much like a commander on the battlefield."

Yang Yi explained it again, seeing that Lin Ying didn't respond, he said another one.

"Shadow Killer? You came out of the dark and delivered the fatal blow while Durant was drawing the opponent's attention."

Yang Yi adjusted his glasses and continued.

There was one thing Springman got right but not quite right.

Yang Yi was indeed watching the game from the auditorium, but he was standing behind the commentary booth.

That position not only has a good line of sight, but also can hear what Barkley and Kenny Smith are saying during the commentary.

So he also heard Barkley's "light and shadow" evaluation after the game.

When Lin Ying heard this, she looked at Yang Yi.

This "shadow killer" immediately reminded him of an anime he had watched before.

He blurted out almost instinctively:

"Shadow Assassin?"
