Volume 1: The Road to the European Emperor Chapter 67 My stupid brother!
Sun Hao had seen this kind of look before.
Just last offseason, he invited Prigioni to his home for dinner, and the latter had this look when he saw the barbecue.
Gasol is definitely a foodie!
Moreover, he should be more of a foodie than Prigioni, and his obese body speaks volumes.
However, losing weight is not something Sun Hao needs to consider for Gasol Jr.
"Whatever you want to eat, I'll treat you."
Sun Hao then spoke.
"real?"
Gasol Jr. completely gave up resisting the food.
"Of course it's true. I'm your brother's friend, and I treated you, so it doesn't count as you buying it."
Sun Hao continued.
When Gasol heard this, especially the second half of the sentence, his whole expression disappeared and he ran to the window happily.
Hot dogs, hamburgers, fried chicken rolls...
Gasol is really rude.
Sun Hao couldn't stop laughing while paying the bill.
Gasol really can eat a lot, no wonder he is so fat.
Gasol Jr. chatted with Sun Hao while eating, and it felt like he already treated Sun Hao as a friend.
During the conversation, Sun Hao also gained a deeper understanding of his brother Pau Gasol.
In Mark's words, his brother is simply a "bully" who does all kinds of evil.
As Gasol had previously revealed to Sun Hao, their father is a doctor and their mother is a nurse.
When they were young, they had different hobbies. His brother was interested in science, while he inherited his parents' genes and liked medicine.
Everything changed when my brother watched a few basketball games of Barcelona.
His brother fell in love with basketball and forced him to play basketball with him. He was woken up for training at dawn every day.
“It was hell.”
There was a hint of fear in Gasol's eyes when he said this.
When his brother was training, he didn't treat him as a child at all and beat him up every time.
This is only part of it. In the eyes of the younger brother, the oppression his brother has inflicted on him since he was a child is simply "too numerous to list".
Supervise his eating every day, and "educate" him if he exceeds the standard.
I supervise his training every day, and "educate" him if he fails to meet the standards.
My brother even bribed his teammates and everyone around him to monitor him.
The most exaggerated thing is that his brother’s biggest hobby is sunbathing, and then he insists on dragging him to sunbathe with him!
He doesn't like being outdoors!
Sun Hao held back his laughter when he heard this.
Gasol doesn't like sports or outdoor activities. He is a typical otaku.
After Gasol finished complaining and eating, he was in a very good mood.
Although it was only the first day he met Sun Hao, it was also the first time that someone else heard him complain about his brother.
And I ate so many delicious things.
Oh, by the way, there was still a hot dog that he couldn’t bear to eat, so he put it in a bag and carefully put it in his clothes pocket.
"I like you."
After finishing the meal, Gasol Jr. said something from the heart.
It was not the kind of love between a man and a woman, but simply the love a child had for a bigger child.
Sun Hao smiled and said, you know what, Gasol Jr. is quite cute.
After eating, Sun Hao returned to the hotel to rest for a while. Two hours before the game, he returned to the stadium to warm up.
The competition venue has been opened. Sun Hao went over to warm up and there were already people inside.
It's Pau Gasol.
He and Sun Hao had previously agreed to compete against each other in the playoffs, but they both broke the agreement once. This time, the match finally took place.
But the difference is that Sun Hao has already won the Champions League and became the new Champions League MVP.
We agreed to play duo together, but you stayed up late to gain points.
You can tell with your butt how much energy he is holding back right now.
What Sun Hao didn't expect was that in addition to his brother practicing on the court, his younger brother was also sitting on the sidelines.
However, compared with before, the expression on Gasol's face was completely different.
He was smiling before, but now he is frowning.
It was obvious that he was forced to do this.
When Sun Hao came in, both his elder and younger brothers turned their heads.
My brother frowned slightly. The days when we used to chat about books, with you talking about Cervantes and me talking about Zhou Shuren, are gone forever.
The younger brother's frown relaxed and he smiled, then waved to Sun Hao to say hello.
Sun Hao also greeted Gasol Jr. with a smile.
"Mark, come up and train with me!"
But soon, Gasol was scolded.
Gasol's brows, which had finally relaxed, frowned again. He took off his coat reluctantly and then walked onto the court with heavy steps.
It felt like being guillotined in shackles.
Sun Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw this.
It seems that my brother's previous complaints really came from the bottom of his heart!
Sun Hao did some warm-up exercises and then started shooting to warm up.
He is a shooter, and finding his touch is something he must do before every game.
On the other side, the older brother had already started to abuse his younger brother without the ball.
Gasol is big and slow, and he is young and not fully developed, so he has no power to resist his brother.
"Eat, eat, eat. All you know is to eat. Let's see if you can defend yourself like this."
"It's really embarrassing to have a brother like you."
"Have you forgotten that your parents used to be basketball players? Aren't you ashamed of this?"
…
I don’t know if Sun Hao can hear such trash talk from time to time because Gasol Jr. greeted him before.
He suddenly understood Gasol a little. If this kind of "torture" continued, not only fifteen-year-old children, but also adults would not be able to bear it.
Fortunately, not long after, players from both sides arrived at the stadium and the devastation finally came to an end.
When Gasol Jr. left the court, the look in his eyes could be described in one word: he was really angry but dared not speak. He probably hated his brother to death in his heart.
After all the players arrived, the assistant coaches on both sides began to lead the teams in formal warm-up.
Just at this moment, a very interesting scene happened on the sidelines.
Gasol Jr. was sitting in the second row of the audience. He smacked his lips a few times, looking at the court and then into his pockets, as if there was some treasure in there.
When the warm-up on the field was almost complete, the coaches on both sides began to gather the players together to make the final tactical deployment.
Just at this moment, Gasol quickly took something out of his pocket. It was what he had not finished eating when Sun Hao treated him to a meal.
He had originally planned to eat later, but he couldn't resist the temptation.
At this moment, he looked just like a student who ate snacks secretly in class, taking a bite and looking at it again.
But he was a bit unlucky. He was seen by Gasol who turned around when he had just finished eating half of it.
He stood there in a daze.
After the coach finished arranging the tactics, Gasol walked straight over and started scolding him.
There were two big words written on Gasol's chubby face: aggrieved.
If he hadn't been afraid of his brother's "tyranny", he would have turned the table over and quit long ago.
The game is about to begin, and the main players of both sides begin to appear on the field one after another.
Sun Hao shook his arms and prepared to go on stage.
Passing by the audience, he saw Gasol Jr. with his head down, looking very depressed.
Although he knew that without Gasol Sr.'s criticism, there would be no successful Gasol Jr. in the future.
But this is indeed a bit too much.
"I'll help you get revenge."
Sun Hao turned around and said to him with a smile.
When Gasol looked up and saw that it was Sun Hao, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of smiles.
That expression seemed to be saying, beat my brother hard and avenge me!
The main players of both teams have arrived on the court one after another.
The fans at the scene began to roar one after another.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are arch-rivals, and this match is definitely a national derby as it takes place on such a big stage as the La Liga final.
The players on both sides are also ready to go.
Such a big stage and an opponent you want to fight so much against don’t come along every year.
Especially for this group of players, this may be the only chance in their career.
Sun Hao also stretched out his legs, supported his knees with his hands, and swayed his body left and right as a final warm-up.
He has chosen the path of the Little Emperor, and this is a game he must win.
He noticed someone looking at him, and when he looked up, he saw it was Gasol.
It was a look full of fighting spirit.
it is more than words.
Sun Hao stood up straight and made an OK gesture to Gasol.
This gesture stunned Gasol.
However, the referee had already come over to kick off, so he had no time to think about it and stood in the midfield with his hands outstretched.
"beep!"
At the sound of a whistle, Gasol jumped up and pushed the ball back to Barcelona's half, officially opening the national derby.
This was the first time that Gasol beat Gabayosa in a jump shot after Sun Hao entered La Liga.
Barcelona advanced to the frontcourt, and Gasol went straight to the high position to ask for the ball.
At this moment, Sun Hao suddenly found that he had predicted Barcelona's offensive intentions on the field.
It was a very strange feeling.
He could roughly guess the offensive tactics that Barcelona players were going to use based on their running positions on the field.
There are many tactics, but most of them are composed of basic units such as pick-and-roll, cutting, and passing.
The Princeton tactics used by Blatt before are a tactic that combines these basic units to the extreme.
People move, the ball moves, in coordination.
There are pick-and-rolls everywhere, cutting in all the time, and the pass can be made at any time.
When this tactic is taken to its extreme, it is not only unsolvable, but also quite entertaining to watch.
Just like the current Kings in the NBA, their attendance rate ranks first in the league.
Sun Hao can now judge that the tactics Barcelona is going to play are very similar to those of Preston, but one level simpler.
High-level support.
After Gasol received the ball, he faced the basket. The outside players cut into the basket from both wings looking for scoring opportunities, while the forwards fell to the bottom corner to create space after the pick-and-roll.
Sun Hao predicted that Barcelona would do so, and Barcelona did so.
Gasol saw the opportunity to pass the ball.
"Snapped!"
Before the ball was passed, Sun Hao blocked it with one move!
Barcelona started the game with... a mistake!
After Sun Hao stole the ball, he immediately passed the ball to Prigioni, who quickly broke through and made a layup, causing Navarro to commit a defensive foul and getting two free throws.
Barcelona head coach Enrique has walked to the sidelines. He spread his hands and looked at Gasol, obviously dissatisfied with the tactical execution of the previous round.
You have to know that the game has just started, and this kind of mistake has a big impact on the team's morale.
Gasol looked innocent.
He clearly saw it as an opportunity, but Sun Hao suddenly rushed out.
It felt like I knew where he would pass it.
Generally speaking, only those who are very can predict it.
But Sun Hao has never been in the Barcelona team, and has never trained with him. It's really weird.
Gasol was complaining in his heart, while Sun Hao was slightly excited at this time.
What happened just now has fully demonstrated the help that the gold-level basketball IQ badge has brought to him.
That feeling is just like in the 2K game, switching from the player's perspective to the God's perspective!
Don’t underestimate this change. Anyone who has played the full game knows the importance of field of vision. The wider the field of vision, the more accurate the judgment will be.
This seems to be true, because it was that finishing touch that helped Sun Hao upgrade before.
Applying the vision of football to the basketball court can have a huge impact.
Prigioni made both free throws and Real Madrid scored first.
Barcelona advanced to the frontcourt and Gasol continued to play high to support.
This time he was careful, especially on Sun Hao's side.
However, this action was too obvious, and Prigioni directly blocked the passing route on the other side.
Gasol finally chose to turn around and attack from the free throw line, but was blocked by Gabayosa.
Barcelona failed to score in two consecutive attacks at the beginning of the game!
The Real Madrid fans at the scene suddenly became excited, shouting "Real Madrid" in unison with tremendous momentum.
This is because the fans were not satisfied with losing to Greece in the Champions League, so they saved all their energy for the La Liga final.
Amid cheers, Prigioni dribbled the ball to the frontcourt to organize the game.
It was at this moment that Sun Hao felt that his observation of defense was different from before.
Originally, he could only roughly judge the opponent's defensive style, whether it was man-to-man or zone defense.
But at this time he can judge the opponent's position more clearly and quickly.
For example, the Barcelona team is now defending man-to-man, but all the positions are on his side, including Gasol under the basket.
Sun Hao has been in Real Madrid for two years and has played against Barcelona many times. This old rival has studied him thoroughly.
Prigioni was originally preparing to pass the ball to Sun Hao, but Sun Hao made a tactical gesture to him and then started running without the ball.
As soon as he started running, Barcelona's defense more or less converged on him.
He is already showing signs of developing the "Sun Gravitational Force".
However, Real Madrid's tactical pick-and-roll was very effective. Sun Hao circled the court and created an opportunity by taking advantage of Gabayosa's strong chest.
Prigioni's pass was also given in the first place.
There is a perfect understanding between the trident.
Sun Hao received the ball, but did not shoot immediately.
After his vision became wider, he noticed Gasol who was coming to defend.
Gasol pounced very fiercely, gritting his teeth, and it was obvious that he tried his best to keep up with Sun Hao's speed after switching defense.
After failing to organize offense twice in a row at the start of the game, he tried hard to make up for it with defense.
He pounced forward, and then he found that Sun Hao, unusually, did not make a move.
That damn feeling comes back again.
It was as if Sun Hao had predicted what he was going to do!
Under the eyes of the fans, Sun Hao received the ball and waited for Gasol to fly past him, then aimed at the frame and shot.
The basketball flew in the air, drawing a perfect parabola.
“Swish!”
With a crisp sound, three points went into the net.
Sun Hao hit the first three-pointer of the game!
Such a three-pointer was not difficult for Sun Hao, but because of the background board with Gasol flying by, the ball looked particularly exciting.
When the ball went in, all the Real Madrid fans at the scene raised their hands and cheered.
Even in the opposite audience seats, a fat figure jumped up.
That's clearly Marc Gasol.
Sun Hao said he would help him "avenge", and he had been waiting for it.
He intercepted his brother's ball in front and suppressed his excitement when he saw his brother's helpless expression.
Now that he can shake his brother off so easily, he really can't hold it back anymore.
His brother teaches him a lesson every day, but one day he will be taught a lesson by himself!
And this is not just on the training ground, it's a formal game, the La Liga final!
When I think about that, I can’t help myself!
But soon, he was met with cold stares from the people around him.
Little brother, where are you from?!
Gasol then realized that he was sitting on the Barcelona team's side and that his celebration was asking for a beating.
He smiled awkwardly and sat down.
This scene happened on the sidelines, but because of Gasol's large size and the fact that he jumped up to celebrate as a fan of the "visiting team" was too eye-catching.
Not only the fans nearby, but also the players on the field saw this scene.
Sun Hao almost spit out a mouthful of salt soda.
Occasion, pay attention to the occasion.
Gasol frowned.
My stupid brother...
He really felt like he was disappointed in his friend.
If he was a father instead of a brother, he would have wanted to delete his account and start over.
Unfortunately, he wasn't, so he had no other thoughts other than the inner thoughts of giving his brother a more impressive education.
And the game on the field continues.
Barcelona still had no chance to assist from high position, and Navarro finally turned himself into a bomb and sent it into the inside, which earned him two free throw opportunities.
He made one of two free throws and finally scored the first point of the game for Barcelona.
But looking back, Sun Hao moved to distract the defense, and Gabayosa took the ball and jumped into the air, and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand before Gasol returned to defense.
Gasol once again became a gorgeous background.
He was really miserable tonight.
The Real Madrid fans on the sidelines shouted excitedly again.
After this dunk, the score on the field became 9 to 1!
The game has only been going on for three minutes and Barcelona is going to be ruthlessly beaten tonight, just like they did in the Champions League semi-final.
The fans were cheering, but Sun Hao unconsciously looked in the direction of Gasol Jr.
Gasol's chubby face was trying hard to hold back a smile, and he clenched his fists to try his best to suppress his excitement.
He was really excited. This was the first time he saw his brother being taught a lesson so badly.
Even though it wasn't his own hands, it feels good to see it from someone else's hands.
But he immediately lowered his head because his brother's murderous look came back again.
Sun Hao was really happy watching this.
These two brothers are really a pair of enemies.
