Chapter 36 Genius Vs. Genius
Not to mention that Sashiro felt that the momentum was a bit exaggerated.
Even the director who has been in this business for many years thinks this is outrageous!
Before the game started, the stadium was already packed with enthusiastic fans.
The car could hardly move even from a distance.
There is no other way. If you want to get to the competition venue from now on, you can only walk!
"This is outrageous, Green, did you see this? Oh my God!"
"It is true, Paul. This is really crazy. The so-called March Madness is not crazy in comparison!"
The two directors were filled with admiration for each other.
This scene is truly unprecedented.
Even for a PAC12 match, this kind of scene was too exaggerated.
It's not the NCAA finals!
It's not even the NBA Finals!
Why are there so many people!
"We can see that there seem to be a lot of people with yellow skin."
"Haha, it's obvious that these people came here specially to support Sashiro! They are all enthusiastic Huxia fans!"
"Is it really that crazy? Then this journey must be worth a lot of money!"
"But I believe that Sashiro's performance will make it all worth it!"
...
At this time, in the players' lounge.
Players from both teams were nervously preparing to go on the court.
At least... that's what the original script should have been like.
In the lounge of UCLA University, everyone was very excited to see such a grand scene.
"Wow! So cool! When you passed by outside, did you hear how many fans were shouting your name?"
"It's horrible! I've never seen so many people at any competition!!"
"You are just like me, Sashiro!"
"I wish I could have so many fans someday..."
"What are you thinking? Are you as strong as Sashiro?"
"I'm just thinking about it! Is it not enough to just think about it?"
Here, Sashiro heard what they said.
He just smiled and replied:
"Hey... I play basketball just for fun! These things are not within my consideration."
"f**k! Don't be so modest. If I could have made that incredible three-pointer you made at the end of the last game, I would have been bragging about it for the rest of my life!!"
"That's right! You are so modest."
"You're so humble that I'm jealous. I want to hit you!!"
"This game depends on you. It's up to you to beat the star player on the other side!"
"Ah... I'll try my best."
Sashiro said with an awkward smile.
Before the game, of course, he also heard the player that the media compared him to.
Fultz!
An extremely good point guard!
It's the same as your own position.
Naturally, this attracted a lot of attention.
In the next game, I will face him head-on.
At this time, the coach came in and said to the players:
"Hey guys, are you ready to play?!"
The coach was in high spirits, and it was obvious that his expression now represented his mood.
So beautiful!
All the players looked confused.
They stared at each other and said:
"Coach, you haven't given us any tactics today..."
In the past, the coach would always give them detailed and earnest instructions on today's tactics before every game.
Once everything is arranged, the coach will let them play.
But today, the coach said nothing!
This is not normal!!
However, after hearing this, the coach said with a relaxed look:
"Tactics? Are you sure you still need tactics? Even if I lay them out for you, will you listen?"
...
Everyone looked embarrassed.
Yes.
What a bullshit tactic.
I almost forgot, isn't it just a matter of giving the ball to Sashiro?
Harmful!
"Sorry Coach, I forgot!"
"There's really no need for tactics; how embarrassing, haha, we're just going to give the ball to Sashiro anyway!"
"Anyway, even my grandma and Sashiro can win as a team."
"You are too conservative. Tie a dog up there. As long as the dog doesn't bite the referee, you can win!"
"Haha! Let's go brothers!!"
"Come on, come on, make way for Brother Bai!"
...
Sashiro looked at the coach awkwardly, as if asking:
"Coach, do you think I should leave or not?"
The coach nodded.
"Let's go!"
Sashiro blinked.
"Good coach!"
Here, when Sashiro and his team walked onto the stage, the audience suddenly erupted in loud cheers.
Countless fans were cheering Sashiro's name.
Obviously, his current popularity has far exceeded the level of a college player.
He already has some superstar potential.
And here.
A player from the University of Washington, who was already on the court, walked up to Fultz and said:
"Hey, that guy totally stole your thunder!"
"Aren't you angry?"
"Mingming, you are the real genius. What is that guy compared to you?"
After he said this, Fultz's expression changed subtly.
Fultz said:
"Don't worry, I will prove it to everyone in this game."
Fultz silently clenched his fists.
You know.
These honors should have belonged to Fultz.
But at this point, it seems that all the media mentioning him are for comparison with Sashiro.
I am just a foil to him!
How could Fultz, who has always been the focus of attention, swallow this?
Even during the pre-match interview, the media asked him:
"Excuse me, what do you think of the outside world calling this a battle between talented guards?"
Fultz couldn't help himself at that time.
Direct rebuttal:
"Among geniuses? Sorry, I only saw one genius!"
When the two teams came onto the court at the same time, Fultz walked directly to Sashiro and said:
"Bai, in this game, I will let you know what the word genius really means!"
"If you are afraid, it's not too late to get out now."
Fultz's words were powerful, and the scene was completely recorded by the surrounding cameras.
The audience present and the fans in front of the TV were very excited when they saw this scene!
This is like the tough talk before a boxing match!
Watching it makes your adrenaline rush!!
Even the commentator said:
"Oh my god, it seems like this match is really full of tension!"
"This time the audience of this game will have a treat!"
"I believe this will be a very exciting game!!"
...
Others are looking forward to it.
But Sashiro.
So helpless!
Why do these people come up and say harsh words to me...
I just want to play ball happily; why do you keep talking to me about genius or not.
I didn't say I was a genius!
The villain really has no brains?
I thought that kind of villain only existed in novels.
Why!
But there is no way, even though I don't want to fight.
But...
"Ding Dong! Now issuing a task for the host. Please defeat the University of Washington by a large margin in this game. The generosity of the system's reward will depend on the score difference!"
