Chapter 6 Two Choices

The White team's offense became very difficult due to Harden's limitations, but their defense gradually found a way to deal with Westbrook.

At this time, Westbrook, who did not have a mid-range shot and would only rush to the penalty area, would immediately become like a restricted trapped beast and be dizzy whenever he had a pair of top defenses.

So, the score began to get anxious, and no one in the Red and White teams seemed to be able to stand up and widen the gap in the scores.

"This game is a bit like a one-on-one between James and the Red Team No. 3."

"James, who is in the senior year of high school, will not make a decision yet. The Red Team's No. 3 must be won!"

The Red Team's offense, Westbrook was closely guarded.

On the left, Li Ke started from the sideline, and Harden followed slowly.

Going to the left side of the arc, Li Ke suddenly accelerated, turned around, and penetrated into the penalty area, instantly throwing away the careless Harden away.

"Beautiful interspersed and running!"

"No. 3 passed the ball, No. 88 received the ball, and threw it!"

There was no fancy move, just a simple throw, and Li Ke got the first point in the game.

Tim Floyd felt his eyes lit up, as if he had found the player he really wanted to get, but a ball did not explain the problem and needed further observation.

On the court, Harden suddenly realized that he seemed to have been scored.

Now, it seems that he needs to play an answerball, which is a bit embarrassing.

However, no matter how embarrassed he is, with all his strength, it is not difficult for him to kill Li Ke's defense.

So, Harden used a quick breakthrough, plus the fake move of turning around and taking steps back, to shake Li Ke away with difficulty, and scored a backward mid-range shot.

The response was successful!

In the next round, the Red Team's attack, Li Ke used the same trick again to start from the sideline, interspersed with the penalty area.

This time, Harden followed.

Harden, who is in his senior year, is not so serious in defense. Although he is still very pragmatic when he should be pragmatic.

Seeing Harden tightly embellishing himself, Li Ke made a turnaround halfway.

Harden didn't react and took a step further.

Then, Li Ke went around in the same place, turned back again, and completely left Harden away.

"No. 3's pass found No. 88 who ran out of the free time again. No. 88 made a layup and the score widened!"

In the stands, Keating narrowed his eyes.

"The performance of No. 88 is a bit surprising, with defense plus no ball, an excellent role player, but this No. 3 is worthy of being Lu Jinge's star. His dynamic talent is invincible, and his potential seems to be without limit..."

On the other hand, Tim Floyd's reaction was completely different.

"Top character players, hard defense, and offense, so adaptable!"

He didn't mention Westbrook, and his assistant Lindesay refused:

"Russell is not bad, his passes are sharp."

This time, Floyd agreed surprisingly: "You are right, Lindesay, this number 3, we can snatch and transform it to make him the number one point guard in passing. We just happen to have two full scholarship places left..."

"Uh... Tim, Russell probably has to add more strength. I've looked for him, but he has been thinking about it. I'm afraid that after this game, UCL will take action, and by then, we will be completely at a disadvantage."

"Totally at a disadvantage? No, you're wrong, Lindesay." Floyd began to teach his assistant seriously.

"Do you think UCL can give this No. 3 main player? They have Jordan Famal, Darren Collison and Allen Avraro, and their back line is already overcrowded."

On the court, after Li Ke started scoring, the gap was completely widened.

The Red Team finally won the game, Westbrook, who scored 34 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists in the game, became the best player in the game.

"Ben, the aau basketball game has achieved unprecedented success. I found a bead. His performance on the court is like a bat from hell. It's incredible. We have to take him!"

Before the game ended, Corey Keating called UCL coach Ben Howard.

After obtaining consent, he found Russell Westbrook, who had just finished celebrating with Li Ke on the court at the first time at the end of the game.

"You have performed well, Russell, on behalf of UCL, I invite you to stay at the Poly House for one more day."

"Is it a trial?"

Westbrook's eyes lit up.

"Yes, try alone. If you can continue your performance in today's game, UCL will give you a full scholarship!"

"Thank you, Mr. Cory, I will definitely do my best in the trial training!"

With almost no hesitation, Westbrook agreed.

Lindesey Williams, who had just stood aside, was stunned and agreed.

Although he felt that the hope of success would be slim when recruiting Westbrook at this time, he interrupted the excited Westbrook.

"Uh, hello, Russell, we're meeting again."

"Hello, Mr. Lindesey." Westbrook apologized before Lindesey Williams could recruit. "Sorry, Mr. Lindesey, I think I may not accept the invitation from the University of Southern California again."

"Uh, Russell, are you sure you don't have to think about it again? Southern California is willing to give you the promise of the main position."

Westbrook lowered his head: "Sorry, Mr. Lindesay, I just want to join UCL, it's my dream team."

Facing Westbrook, Lindsey Williams ended with a crushing defeat.

On the other hand, Tim Floyd gave himself the task of recruiting Li Ke, but like Lindesay, he had to line up.

It’s not that other schools are recruiting Li Ke, but that Li Ke is having a cordial exchange with Harden.

"You're tough, guy with huge numbers, if you're on the White Team, the one who wins will be the White Team."

Harden's meaning is very clear. He is better than Westbrook, and the reason why he lost the game is that the Red Team has one more Li Ke.

"So too, James, although I really want to say a trash, you are not as powerful as you think..."

Harden smiled, the communication seemed a bit too friendly.

But he doesn't care. In life, he is a person who will not make friends with others, but will not make friends with others with them actively.

He patted Li Ke on the back again: "I hope we can become NCAA teammates, because I believe you will be an excellent helper."

Helper? Why is this word so awkward?

At this time, Harden had already left, and Tim Floyd seized the opportunity and inserted it in.

"Hey, the guy who just locked James Harden."

The guy who just locked James Harden? Another very awkward title.

Li Ke was used to it. He knew that before this game, he was a nameless person.

"Introduce yourself, Tim Floyd, the head coach of the USC Trojans."

USC, is USC, which recruited Russell not long ago?

Li Ke's first choice came quietly.

"This is an invitation to a full scholarship. You will be the perfect puzzle in the SCCA journey to the NCAA championship. You will be with Nick Young and Tagibson, the three musketeers of the USCCA."

Perfect puzzle? Another weird description.

Fortunately, Li Ke liked the word Musketeer and was very aggressive!

If there wasn't a character like a coach standing behind Floyd, Li Ke would probably agree to Tim Floyd's recruitment on the spot.

After all, USC has Nick Young and Tagibson, and is also a member of the NCAA Division I Pacific Ten League, and its strength and status are enough.
