Chapter 11: First game End

People often assume that big men can't dribble.

But in the NBA—the highest level of basketball—plenty of big men can handle the ball.

Even top amateur dribblers might struggle to match the in-game dribbling ability of an NBA big man fresh out of the league.

Take Yao Ming, for example. He once completed a full-court fast break off the dribble. Dribbling is a fundamental skill, after all.

Still, in an NBA packed with "superhumans," most big men don't dribble like gua...

Chapter 10: First game Part 6

In the first half, the Sooners and the Wildcats were tied at 44.

Blake Griffin was in a terrible mood. This was his home court.

Looking at the crowd. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook from the Thunder had come to watch. NBA scouts and agents, the kind who had discovered countless rookies, were sitting in the stands. The game was being broadcast live, with none other than Reggie Miller—one of the greatest shooters in NBA history—on commentary.

Wasn't this exactly what Bl...

Was this happening?

Was Davidson letting the Chinese big go one-on-one with me?

No mismatch. No pick-and-roll trickery. Just straight-up isolation.

Griffin scoffed—no way this dude could take him on the dribble.

.......

Lin Yi stood beyond the three-point line, ball in hand. Was he seriously thinking of pulling up from here? Griffin wasn't about to let that happen. He stepped up, got in Lin Yi's face, and denied him the shot.

Chapter 8: First game Part 4

Blake Griffin sized up the guy in front of him with obvious dissatisfaction.

Tall and lanky. Griffin had seen plenty of so-called "big men" like this before.

Soft.

No way this dude was built for the trenches. His mother might think he was good, but that wasn't going to save him on the court.

Not every Chinese big man is Yao Ming.

Griffin decided right then—he was going to make sure this big understood wha...

Chapter 7: First game Part 3

The Oklahoma Sooners' basketball court quickly fell silent as Stephen Curry, the Southern District's scoring champion, took over the game. In a span of just a few possessions, he had drained two audacious three-pointers and sliced through the defense for a dazzling layup, scoring eight consecutive points.
"This is refreshing to watch! Remember, back in March, the underdog Wildcats shocked the tournament by knocking out multiple top-seeded teams, with Curry scoring ...

Chapter 6: First game Part 2

This fast-paced battle between the Davidson Wildcats and Oklahoma Sooners has drawn significant attention. Before the game, the media were eager to interview both Blake Griffin and Stephen Curry, knowing that these two would be the focal points of the matchup.

Curry had delivered a stellar performance in March, cementing his status as one of college basketball's brightest stars, while Griffin was widely regarded as the most dominant prospect in this rookie class.

During an intervi...

Chapter 5: First game

There's something about the way the street looks when it's just rained~!"

"Russell, I swear to God, your singing is as bad as your three-pointer." Kevin Durant shot an exasperated look at Russell Westbrook, hoping the latter would put an end to his impromptu concert.

"Hey, Kevin, this is Taylor's new song. As her fan, I must promote it. Besides, I haven't fully adjusted to the NBA three-point line yet." Westbrook took off his headset, defending himself. However, he finall...

Chapter 4: Training

As a senior and the starting center for Davidson College, Anthony Beasley had always been a dominant presence in the Wildcats' lineup. While Stephen Curry was undeniably the team's star, Beasley was their foundation in the paint—a symbol of strength and reliability. At 201 cm (6'7"), he wasn't the tallest center in college basketball, but he had made a name for himself.

Fans respected him. Younger teammates looked up to him. Occasionally, even bold female fans would slip him notes or ...

Chapter 3: Testing

In the basketball hall of Davidson College, Lin Yi had become the center of attention. While the basketball team had already seen him once, standing beside him now made them truly grasp how unbelievable his transformation was.

"Well, I'm glad Lin will be a new member of our school team." Coach McKillop led the team in welcoming Lin Yi with a round of applause.

Lin Yi leaned down and whispered to Curry, "Why does Anthony look at me so strangely?" It was ironic—Curry was the one t...

Chapter 2: Transformation

Generally, a boy's height continues to grow until around the age of 22. Many NBA stars have undergone positional changes due to growth spurts in high school and college. For instance, the legendary Shaquille O'Neal played as a point guard before his significant growth spurt in high school.

A major incident recently took place in Room 4001 of the Davidson College boys' dormitory.

Stephen Curry paced anxiously, his baby-faced expression filled with worry. He muttered to himself, "Oh...

Beginning

What Kind of Player Can Truly Be Considered "Unsolved"?

Elite perimeter and post scoring: Elite outside and inside scoring are necessities.

Elite speed and agility: Both movement and lateral quickness must be exceptional.

Height and size: In an era of mismatches—where bigs dominate smaller players and vice versa—size remains an undeniable advantage.

Elite physicality and endurance: Top-tier athleticism and strength are essential.

Elite handling and playmaking...
