I AM the Football Star

Chapter 618: Chapter 162: The New Italian Seven Sisters!

”King of Long Shots! Soccer Golden Boy bloody crushes NBA Bear King, basketball can be played like this?”

”An NBA MVP wasted by soccer! Lu Yang has the potential to become the strongest point guard!”

”Is this the strongest 185 on earth?”

”Unstoppable! How do you defend such ultra-long three-pointers?”

”Yao Liang, Sun Yue, and Lu Yang, a ten-to-zero victory over the three starters of the Grizzlies, the Lakers hit the jackpot!”

”Bear King Bogu harasses Sofia, Lu Yang retaliates with a heavy punch, Bogu kneels to apologize!”

”Kneeling punishment! It’s reported that tickets for the next Grizzlies home game are sold out, and fans want to see Bogu kneel in person!”

”Being a thug comes at a price! Bogu hit an iron wall this time!”

”Don’t mess with Sofia! Lu Yang has publicly stated he’s very petty!”

”Sofia admits love! Boldly says she fears nothing with Lu Yang around!”

”Better at playing soccer! Playing basketball isn’t as good as playing soccer!”

News stories are flying everywhere.

European football fans saw this news as soon as they woke up. You can’t imagine how thrilling it was.

What does Golden Boy mean?

It means that among young people, they’re decent, but they might not have a place in the world of true top stars.

In history, many Golden Boys showed the grandeur of superstars, but apart from Mbappe, Haaland, and Messi, the others were not yet among the superstar ranks when they won the Golden Boy.

There were even several flop Golden Boys who failed to realize their talent and never had a real peak period.

In the NBA, Golden Boy is roughly equivalent to the concept of a draft’s number one pick or best rookie.

Yet such a player has crossed boundaries to defeat NBA Grizzlies boss Bogu.

This is somewhat magical.

But with the facts in front of you, you have to believe it.

Morici learned about the conflict immediately and voiced on the platform: ”Brother Lu is invincible! I mean no disrespect to basketball, but scum like Bogu, I’ll hit every time I see!”

Of course, fans left comments under Morici’s post.

”Stop, I’m afraid Naji can’t hold you back!”

”Brother Chicken, forget it, let’s spare him.”

”No need for a one-for-one swap primarily.”

Morici’s ”Mo” is a polyphonic character, so many fans domestically call him ”Brother Chicken.”

Audi: ”I knew Lu was good at soccer, I didn’t expect him to be so great at basketball too, but he should watch out not to commit handball fouls on the soccer field!”

”If my wife was by my side and provoked in a sleazy way by another man, I’d rush over like Lu Yang and show him what’s what too. On this matter, I unconditionally support Lu Yang!”

Izalelt: ”I think Lu Yang did the right thing, he set an example for us in this matter! We should all learn his spirit of protecting one’s girlfriend!”

”You know, the opponent was a two-meter-one hulk. Lu’s courage is overwhelming, he’s always so fearless against formidable opponents!”

Similarly, within the United States, within the NBA, Bogu was also criticized.

But people did not criticize him for being shameless, but for losing.

In competitive sports, weakness is the original sin.

As the leader of a team, you’re bloodily crushed by someone with two substitutes, and the greatest role of the substitutes is to pass the ball and assist.

This simply lost face for the entire NBA.

This time they were trampled on by the soccer world, and there’s no way to argue.

Reluctant, indeed!

But the only way to regain ground is to form a team and play soccer with Lu Yang, which is awkward.

The popularity and entry difficulty of basketball mean anyone can play it a bit.

Even if they can’t dribble, at least they can shoot.

But soccer is different; the slightly higher threshold means without professional training, even aiming in the right direction isn’t easy.

Thus, non-professional soccer players can’t compare with professional soccer players.

This loss is one that the basketball world is destined to suffer forever.

Truly unlucky!

Of course, some basketball media evaluated Lu Yang’s play style.

NBA’s official broadcast network ESPN: ”That’s not real basketball! Lu Yang showed nothing more than shooting in that game, and such shots have no significance in a real basketball game.”

”Because no NBA team would give a shooter that much shooting space!”

”And under defending pressure, Lu Yang won’t be able to shoot.”

”This is a loophole in 3v3 matches, the defending side is restricted within the three-point line, which is the main reason Lu Yang won this game.”

”Let me reiterate, this is not real basketball!”

Similarly, the largest sports magazine in the United States, Sports Illustrated, made a similar evaluation: ”Players who can only shoot cannot play in the NBA. Lu Yang could be said to have won against Bogu in a mini-game, but you can’t say he’s defeated a professional NBA player because it’s not the NBA’s way!”

”Moreover, Lu Yang’s shot selection doesn’t exist in professional basketball. No coach would allow a player to shoot from the logo area, and no player would make such a offensive choice.”

”If there were, that coach would be crazy and soon fired. As for that player, they would undoubtedly be abandoned by the NBA, forever unable to win FMVP!”

In response, Lu Yang said in an interview: ”Basketball is just basketball, NBA basketball is just one form of basketball. I hope our American friends don’t get confused. If a game with such comprehensive records isn’t considered a win, do you want me to play for some team in an NBA regular-season to count?”
