Chapter 1331 Lin Yi

After Stevens adopted Tang Tian's suggestion, he quickly put it into action.

Durant is very interested in the proposal to play the second position. You must know that when he played the second position in the Supersonics, it was the happiest stage of his shooting.

Durant agreed, and other things will be easy to handle.

Stevens arranged for the trainer to start cutting weight for Durant and Siakam.

At the same time, Kuzma is also gaining weight to a certain extent. He is going to return from the third position to the third and fourth positions.

When facing the Bucks, Lakers and other teams with relatively tall outside dimensions, Stevens also began to use the new starting lineup in advance.

Brogdon and Durant on the outside, Siakam and Davis on the striker, and Gasol at the center.

Although it can't be called the top five of death, the average height of this lineup is much higher than before.

However, there are always pains in the experimental lineup, and the team's record has fluctuated.

Fortunately, this ups and downs are within a controllable range. As Durant and Siakam lose weight, the ups and downs continue to decrease.

Time flies, and it is the end of December in a blink of an eye, and the Pelicans are about to usher in the Christmas game with the Spurs.

The Spurs now rank first in the league.

Durant left the Lakers, Tang Tian retired from the Pelicans, the strength of the two biggest competitors has weakened, and they have no opponents.

They ranked first in the ESPN power list before the start of the season, and they are also considered by the outside world to be the biggest favorites to win the new season.

Therefore, this Christmas battle has also attracted much attention.

Two days before Christmas, Tang Tian arranged the manor with the children at home, preparing for Christmas.

While it was being arranged, an unexpected visitor came to the manor.

Yao Ming.

The last time the two met was during the China game.

Moreover, the purpose of Yao Ming's visit to the United States this time is very surprising. He came to inspect the players.

"Did you know that the NCAA has now produced a very talented Chinese center?"

There was a little excitement in Yao Ming's eyes.

Tang Tian shook his head. Ever since he made that suggestion, he even pays attention to the Pelicans occasionally, let alone the NCAA.

He retired as an owner and spends most of his time with his kids and family.

"The 2.13-meter center can shoot three-pointers, dribble and break through, and can fly and dunk. In short, he is very versatile."

Yao Ming beamed with joy when he spoke.

As a center forward, he is very aware of how talented such a center forward is, and he even feels that if he is trained well, that person's achievements will be higher than his.

Tang Tian was surprised, he thought Yao Ming's words were too exaggerated.

If it is true according to what Yao Ming said, this talent is many times stronger than that of Yi Jianlian. Is there such a person of yellow race?

"what is his name?"

Tang Tian couldn't help asking curiously.

"Lin Yi."

"Lin Yi?"

Tang Tian felt that this name was very familiar.

He thought for a while and then remembered that when he gave away signed sneakers during the Nike China tour, one was given to Wang Quanze, and the other was Lin Yi.

He still had a deep impression of Lin Yi. He was a child from a mountain village. Back then, he donated a sum of money to that mountain village so that they could watch the Olympics.

Later, when he was doing Nike promotion activities in the American All-Stars, he also saw the two of them, and it seemed that they both played in the NCAA.

But it can't be one person.

Although he hadn't seen him for two years, Lin Yi in his impression was just a kid who was less than 1.8 meters tall, who turned into a big man of 2.13 meters in the blink of an eye?

Are you kidding me?

Maybe it's just a coincidence.

"Which school is he in?"

Tang Tian couldn't help but continue to ask curiously.

"Davidson, Davidson Wildcats, I want you to come with me."

Yao Ming's idea is very simple. He can see from some videos that Lin Yi is very talented, and it is inevitable that he will enter the national team in the future.

If Tang Tian goes with him, it can be regarded as planning for the future.

But he was very surprised when he saw Tang Tian's expression, a bit like seeing a ghost.

It's true.

The Lin Yi he knew was Wei Weisen!

But he has never seen anyone who can grow tens of centimeters in just two or three years, which is not scientific at all!

Take Antetokounmpo, the most well-known player in the NBA, as an example. It is said that a small forward is planted in spring and a center is reaped in autumn.

But in fact, he just grew from 2.04 meters to 11 meters.

"I will go with you."

Tang Tian finally agreed to Yao Ming, but he wanted to see if the Lin Yi Yao Ming mentioned was the same person as the Lin Yi he knew.

That afternoon, Tang Tian and Yao Ming flew to Davidson, North Carolina together.

It was an unremarkable town, and if it weren't for Davidson College, few people would come here.

Davidson College has good academic ability and is one of the "New Ivy" schools.

And this school has also produced many celebrities, such as former US Secretary of State Dean Lasker, Pulitzer Prize winner Charles Wright, NBA superstar Curry, etc.

Yes, Curry graduated from this prestigious school.

Compared with his academics, although Davidson belongs to the NCAA Division I, his strength has not been good.

Except Curry.

At the beginning, Curry led his team to the NCAA quarter-finals in history, and then made a name for himself in the NBA. This school was known to basketball fans all over the world.

After they entered the campus, they went straight to the basketball court.

The game was played in the evening, and it had already started before they arrived.

After entering the basketball hall, the first thing Tang Tian saw were many logos on the scene.

This familiar scene reminded him of his time playing at UConn.

From the perspective of basketball atmosphere, the NCAA has really exploded several streets in the NBA.

But when he saw the words written on those logos, he was still surprised.

"demon king."

When seeing this word, the first reaction in his mind was Zhou Qi.

At the beginning, Zhou Qi made a big splash in the U17 arena, and also hit a triple-double of blocked shots several times, and was nicknamed this nickname by the fans.

But obviously, this big devil is not that big devil, it should be Lin Yi.

He then turned his attention to the field.

Familiar faces, completely unfamiliar heights.

Lin Yi's flying dunk after a crossover changed to pass his opponent instantly ignited the atmosphere of the whole scene.

And after Lin Yi dunked a series of trash talk to the sidelines.

Tang Tian thought it was amazing.

It was really the same kid.

It's just that I don't recognize him at all except for that face.

Yao Ming greeted Tang Tian, ​​and the two chose a position with a better view.

Tang Tian also observed Lin Yi's performance on the field better.

As Yao Ming said before, Lin Yi's change of direction, breakthrough, and even shooting are all very good.

This is simply a big killer in the NCAA.

And continue to play according to this performance, this is a chance to hit the top three or even the top pick in the draft.

The more Tang Tian looked at it, the more something was wrong.

Although he knew that Lin Yi played well in Davidson before, it was far from a good level.

Slowly, he began to realize one thing.

Lin Yi probably traveled through time like him and obtained a system.

This is also the most reasonable explanation.
