After dinner, Reese drove Larven and Owen to a nearby hotel.

The two of them sitting in the back did not forget to tease each other.

"Hey, do you think we should get one room or two rooms?" Larven seemed to be really thinking about this question.

"Two, of course," Owen replied.

"But this would cost twice as much, isn't that a bit wasteful?" Larven asked.

They were all ordinary college students. Larvin usually spent his time practicing basketball, hiring a private sparring partner or an assistant coach, and the remaining pocket money was not much. But Owen's family was obviously well-off, and he replied indifferently: "I don't want to sleep with you in the bed next to me."

Larven curled his lips: "I sleep very quietly. And we have been partners for a whole day, you should be more tolerant to your partner!"

"To be lenient with you would be to be cruel to myself," Owen replied.

Nie Chuan turned his head to look at Larven and Owen with a big smile.

Ou En was clearly looking down at his phone, but it was as if he had eyes on his forehead, and he stretched out his arm to press Nie Chuan's head.

Reese, who was driving, pushed Nie Chuan's head back before Owen could.

After sending the two of them to a nearby hotel, Reese took Nie Chuan back to the dormitory, regardless of how they arranged the room.

When they were the only two people left in the car, it suddenly became so quiet that it felt a little lonely.

Just when Nie Chuan was about to fall asleep, Reese suddenly asked, "Do you really think that me, Larven, Owen, and you can form the best team to defeat Azu?"

When this question was asked, Nie Chuan suddenly came to his senses.

He looked at Reese's profile and smiled.

"We all can't help but imagine what the most perfect lineup would be like. But isn't it too greedy to demand the best of everything? Moreover, all the best together may not be the most perfect."

"Is it just about not being too greedy?" Reese asked.

"Don't be too greedy because we DK already have the most perfect lineup!" Nie Chuan raised his head and closed his eyes, "Azu has The Rock, and we have Montenegro. The Rock is indeed a powerful opponent with amazing explosive power, but Montenegro is better at low-post singles than The Rock, more flexible under the basket, and good at positioning. Azu's power forward is Edgar, who is decisive in shooting under the basket and good at rebounding, but we also have Carlo, a power forward with agile skills and strong aerial control ability. Azu's point guard is Ben Robbins, who is quick to shoot, good at running, and can shoot calmly in the midfield. But our Ewing has good ball control and accurate shooting. Maybe Ben Robbins and Seton have a tacit understanding, but Ewing and I also have a tacit understanding!"

"It's just you and me." Even without opening his eyes, Nie Chuan could sense the faint smile in Reese's voice.

"Yes, and you and I, the best partners in the finals. We always know what each other wants, and we can always accomplish what each other wants at the most critical moment, not to mention... you are so strong. At least at this moment, I haven't seen anyone in the entire finals who can really beat you. Whether it's Larvin, Owen, or Raven Harvey and Seton."

"What about you? What kind of existence am I to you?"

Nie Chuan sighed a little aggrievedly: "I always try hard to imitate you, but I don't know how to surpass you."

At that moment, Reese just parked the car in the parking space. He leaned over and kissed Nie Chuan's upturned face.

The feeling of his lips being touched made Nie Chuan's heart tighten suddenly. Before he could open his eyes, Reese's tongue squeezed in and licked and kissed him gently.

Reese rarely has such gentle moments, and even when he is truly gentle, it becomes turbulent in the end.

"But I must constantly surpass the image of me in your mind." Reese's fingers rubbed Nie Chuan's cheek.

At that moment, Nie Chuan's heart was inexplicably filled.

In fact, Reese may never realize how lucky Nie Chuan is to know him.

Even today, Nie Chuan has witnessed so many wonderful moments in the finals, but the most perfect one is still Reese's slam dunk on the community basketball court for the first time, which was so simple and neat that no words could describe it.

They returned to the dormitory and squeezed into the bathroom to take a shower together.

Across the water, Reese kissed Nie Chuan gently, and even the hug seemed so precious and fleeting.

Early the next morning, Nie Chuan went to the playground with Reese for morning exercises as usual.

When they passed by the school's open-air basketball court, they saw Ewing practicing shooting.

Nie Chuan subconsciously stopped and stood on the sidelines with Reese, watching Ewing shoot and retreat. Each of his shots was farther than the previous one.

Ewing's hands were steady and his expression was focused, as if the people passing by and looking at him didn't exist at all.

Even after Ewing had retreated some distance from the three-point line, he continued to move his feet left and right, and the ball always fell steadily into the basket.

"When did Ewing become able to shoot from such a long distance?" Nie Chuan showed a surprised expression.

"In fact, he has always been able to do it. It's just that when he is on the court and there are more distractions, he no longer has that confidence," said Reese.

Nie Chuan suddenly understood. Indeed, after careful calculation, Ewing's current speed from jump to shooting is not slower than that of Ben Robbins or Owen Whishaw, but Ewing rarely shoots quickly. He always shoots when he is very sure.

"It's like your transition from an ordinary point guard to a capable small forward. Only the first time you find that you can block a power forward like Raven Harvey or even dunk, you will never be sure that you have such ability. The same is true for Ewing," said Reese.

At this time, Ewing had retreated to the center line, and everyone looked over, as if saying, "How is this possible?"

Nie Chuan subconsciously clenched his fists. He still remembered the mid-range shots of Owen Whishaw and Ben Robbins. Nie Chuan would never forget that kind of confidence and the parabola of the basketball passing over his head.

At this time, Ewing jumped up, and his basketball had his own lines, gracefully and with a focused temperament, it fell into the basket.

At that moment, exclamations rose and fell everywhere.

Nie Chuan's clenched fist slowly loosened.

Ewing half tilted his head back and let out a breath.

Nie Chuan knew that as long as Ewing succeeded once on the court, he would be able to succeed a second and third time.

Facing Azu, Nie Chuan knew that he not only had to find confidence for Ewing, but also for himself.

"You all say that I'm the only point guard who can rival Seth Lind in the finals. Is that true?" Nie Chuan turned his head and asked Reese beside him.

"At least I haven't found a stronger point guard than you. Besides, it's also a blessing for Seton to meet you."

"Why is it 'lucky'?" Nie Chuan asked puzzledly.

"Because you will make him feel full of crisis." Reese only said this, then pulled Nie Chuan by the back of his collar and continued to run forward.

The decisive battle with Azu came much faster than Nie Chuan imagined.

The basketball team travels to the city where the finals will be held the day before the game.

In recent days, basketball fans are no longer paying attention to the NBA, but to the final between Azu and UDK. Who is the real king? Is it the returning UDK or Azu who wants to win the finals championship again?

Various magazines and media outlets published their predictions, and even the two teams' lineups and the performances of each main player were commented on one by one.

The venue for this final is no longer an ordinary basketball stadium, but is said to be a temporary renovation of an American football stadium. An ordinary NBA basketball stadium can only accommodate 20,000 spectators, but when the final comes, the number of spectators will exceed 70,000.

This is such a number!

Nie Chuan was really surprised at how devoted these foreigners were to NCAA basketball games.

Sitting on the bus with his teammates, Nie Chuan received a text message from Mao Xian.

Mao Xian: Oh my god! Ah Chuan, do you know how much your ticket for the finals sold for?

Nie Chuan: I don’t know.

Yarn: The average price is already $1,346! It’s in US dollars! Not RMB!

Nie Chuan's eyes almost popped out: No way? Are you kidding me?

Mao Xian: I'm kidding you! Ever since you gave me a friendship ticket after knowing that I was a member of your family and friends group, I've been harassed all day! Last night, someone offered $1,800 for my ticket! This morning, it's already risen to $2,000!

Nie Chuan was dumbfounded: You didn't sell the tickets, did you?

Mao Xian: Bullshit! Am I the kind of person who is obsessed with money? I won’t get to see my brother dunk in the finals so many times in my life! There is no way I can sell the tickets!

Nie Chuan: This opportunity may come three more times! But the chance to make a net profit of $2,000 is too rare! You should sell the ticket! We can eat hot pot for many years!

Mao Xian: ...If you say that, I will take it seriously.

Nie Chuan smiled with his mouth pulled. Fortunately, there was a funny guy named Mao Xian, who eased his nervous mood a lot.

But after calming down, he couldn't help but become nervous again when he saw the broadcast images on various screens on the roadside.

Then, Nie Chuan received another text message from Larven: Kill Azu for me, I will be watching you in the audience.

In recent days, the most discussed topic on the international student forum is Nie Chuan. As the main player of DK, he entered the finals of the NCAA basketball game. If UDK wins, Nie Chuan will create a new history.
