I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 12 Ron Howard's Television

"Brother Luo, what are these things? What do these messy times on TV mean?"

"Those numbers, the first one is the time of a single game, a total of 12 minutes, NBA games are divided into two halves, four quarters, each quarter is 12 points, and the last number is the time of each offensive round, a total of 12 minutes. It is 24 seconds, that is to say, each offensive round of each team on the court only has 24 seconds, and the attack needs to be completed within 24 seconds."

"Then, can these times only pass and not increase?"

"The time of the previous single quarter will not increase, and the time of each subsequent attack may increase. Assuming that the time of your own offensive round is less than 14 seconds, and the opponent does not make a free throw foul, or kicks the ball illegally, the attack time will not matter. How much will be adjusted to 14 seconds."

"I see."

"So, on the court, as a defensive player, if it is not necessary, don't use your feet to kick the ball, and don't foul at will."

"Understood, Brother Luo, what is the big blue No. 34 and this black No. 45 standing in between?"

"They're jumping the ball, the referee throws the ball in the air, and whoever gets the ball, their team gets the first shot of the game."

"What about this, the blue number 2 passed the ball to the blue number 8, why did the blue number 8 suddenly jump, is it because of leg cramps?"

"It's not a cramp. The No. 2 dribbler had a bad timing to pass the ball. He couldn't concentrate after dribbling the ball at halftime. His body instinctively passed the basketball to No. 8, but he didn't realize that No. 8 hadn't passed halftime yet. If the number 8 receives the ball in the backcourt, then it is a mistake and the ball will be exchanged."

"Isn't this a scam?"

"It's really deceitful. Therefore, on the court, you must concentrate, especially when passing the ball to your teammates, otherwise it is very easy to make mistakes. Also, don't pass to teammates who are still in the backcourt. ball."

Ron Howard was very thorough and patient.

And Chen Xiao listened very seriously, nodding constantly.

"What about this? What does it mean that the blue No. 34 stupid big man is in and out of the basket? He doesn't stay in it himself, why does he seem to be very dissatisfied with that No. 8 cursing?"

"It's not that he doesn't want to continue standing inside. No. 8 doesn't pass the ball. He can't stand inside for more than 3 seconds. This is the rule of three seconds of offense. He is complaining to No. 8 that he can pass the ball to him earlier."

"It turns out that..."

Um, before Chen Ling could finish the word 'this', the blue number 8 passed the ball... directly passed the ball from the head of number 34, and hit the bottom line stand behind number 34.

Bad pass.

This, this, this...

Chen Xiao was dumbfounded.

Does No. 8 have such a personality?

Even if he is a beginner, he feels that the No. 8 ball must be intentional!

You see, you see, you see, No. 8 actually shrugged helplessly at No. 34 and stuck out his tongue!

She even pretended to be cute!

And the face of that stupid big man No. 34, which was already black, was black and livid.

"Brother Luo, is there a contradiction between the blue number 8 and the blue number 34?"

"Can you see that?"

"I think people who are not blind should be able to see it."

"..."

Ron Howard didn't know what to say for a while.

He wants to change the channel.

It was the first full basketball game Chen watched.

He was afraid that this competition would ruin Chen, a pure beginner.

But seeing Chen Ling watching with such relish, he couldn't bear to spoil his interest.

In the end, Ron Howard could only sigh in his heart, and continued to explain the game and rules to Chen Xiao.

"how do you feel?"

"O'Neal and Kobe are really strong!"

After watching the game, Chen Xiao no longer called them blue No. 34 and No. 8.

After watching the entire game between the Lakers and the Nuggets, Chen Xiao really learned a lot.

After learning the rules of the NBA, I also indirectly learned that some rules of the NCAA are different from those of the NBA.

And not only basketball rules, but also a lot of interesting gossip.

Luo Ge's explanation is very detailed and patient.

The two commentaries on TV are also very interesting.

The first full basketball game he watched in his life left him feeling unsatisfied.

In fact, Ron Howard asked Chen Xiao how he wanted to know how he knew the rules of basketball.

Seeing Chen Xiao's admiration and interest in O'Neill and Kobe, Ron Howard didn't ask again, but chose to follow Chen Xiao.

"O'Neal was the NBA's regular season MVP last season, All-Star MVP, Finals MVP, scoring champion, and is now the strongest player in the NBA."

"Kobe is an NBA All-Star starter. Last season, he was on the first team of the best team and the second team of the best defensive team. He is now one of the strongest defenders in the NBA."

regular season MVP

All-Star MVP

Finals MVP

scoring champion

for a while

defensive second team

All-Star

...

Ron Howard's mouth was full of high-end terms that Chen Xiao had heard or hadn't heard before, which really made Chen Xiao dizzy.

These prefix nouns are very powerful, right?

For a moment, Chen Xiao felt that O'Neill and Kobe on TV seemed to be surrounded by a circle of holy light.

The blank expression on Chen Xiao's face now made Ron Howard beside him smile.

He had, too.

Which beginner has not imagined that he can become Jordan, O'Neal, Duncan, Iverson, Kobe in the future?

Although in the end he would understand that fantasies are fantasies and reality is reality, but now he doesn't want to break Chen Xiao's fantasies.

Only those who have dreams and fantasies will be happy.

Although it is only the happiness that I feel.

However, after more than ten or twenty years, those who can still play role players in the NBA can also brag to their children.

Your dad may have become Jordan, Kobe, and O'Neal back then.

Children will ask, really?

Really yo, just in a dream.

So, Chen, continue to maintain your beginner's heart, this is really precious.

"They must have made a lot of money..."

"..."

What? !

Chen Xiao's heartfelt emotion made Ron Howard, who had finally drank a sip of water after explaining for a long time, directly spit out a big gulp of water towards the TV.

Soon, Chen Xiao and Ron Howard heard the crying sound of 'Zi Zi Zi Zi' coming from the TV...

Hey, hello friends, I am Ron Howard's new TV set, the owner of the Hunyuan Thick Antique Color TV set, and the old antique TV set.

I was still in the repair shop a few days ago, and a young man came over with a broken LCD TV. I said, brother, what happened to you, how did you make yourself so miserable.

I have a look! Ow! It turned out that I was not careful, and I didn't carry the smash, so I was smashed.

He said that it wasn't that he was careless, nor that he didn't want to throw waste away. He talked about the latest products, water and fire to prevent theft, and various advantages.

I said stop, you newest TVs, high-tech TVs, you know how to play tricks in the assembly plant, and when it comes to critical times, it won't work.

He was not convinced, saying that the basketball was too hard and too powerful.

Alas... I said kid, if you let him hit my face with two basketballs, he won't be able to hit it.

He said it's useless for you.

I said that I am useful, this is strength, traditional TV is all about strength, a thick face is worth a thousand dollars, a furious old woman weighing more than two hundred pounds can't hit my face with a broom, this kid can't move me.

He didn't believe it, so he insisted on comparing with me, and said that I would follow me in a few days.

Traditional TV is all about Huajin. My Huajin has already reached perfection, and it is impossible to lie back.

But I never thought that this kid made a puff, and soon, a gulp of cold water came directly to my face.

Ah, I was careless, there was no flash, the water was all on my face, and after two seconds, I was crying at that time, I said stop...Young man, you don’t talk about morality, you agreed to hit it with a basketball, Why all of a sudden?

Come! cheat! Come! Sneak attack! My old comrade of six, seven, eight or nine, is that okay? This is not good.

I advise this young man to drink rat tail juice.

Think about it, and don't do something like this again.

Ah, uh...Ji Lin should regard peace as the most important thing, talk about morality, and don't engage in infighting.

Uh, young man, wait, I think I can still save it, alas, stop, where are you going to carry me? !

...

After watching a game, a TV broke down, which Chen Xiao didn't expect.

Fortunately, judging from the expression on Brother Luo's face, if the TV is broken, it's broken, just replace it with another one, it's no big deal.

It's so enviable!

In fact, although Ron Howard was smiling, he didn't know what to say in his heart.

Brother, this is actually the second one.

Is it too difficult to use it as a TV for my home?

After replacing the TV at Ron Howard's house, it was already late. Ron Howard wanted to invite Chen Xiao to have a supper, but Chen Xiao refused.

After watching a wonderful NBA game, he feels itchy all over his body now.

Chen Xiao's performance was so obvious, of course Ron Howard could see it, and he didn't force him to stay.

"Although the time is a bit late now, there should still be some people on the open-air basketball court to the east of the dormitory. There are many fans there. Although the strength is not very good, you can also experience the atmosphere of a five-on-five game. Go and see Bar."

Hearing what Ron Howard said, Chen Xiao couldn't bear it.

He was about to run, but as soon as he turned around, Chen Ling stopped again.

"What's wrong?"

"Brother Luo, which physical attribute do you think is the most important for a beginner like me to play on the court?"

"Explosion, speed, jumping, as long as these three attributes are strong enough, beginners can also have a good space to play on the court."

"I see, thank you Brother Luo, I'm leaving first."

Seeing Chen Ling's back disappearing into the night, Ron Howard smiled and shook his head.

This figure is very similar to when he learned how to dribble, watched NBA and NCAA games and looked for games everywhere.

"You won't be bullied?"

probably not.

They are all amateurs, and they can't bully others if they want to.

Still, he's a worrying kid.
