The Road to Counterattack: from Grassroots to the Top of the NBA

Yang Hong, 26 years old, is an ordinary basketball enthusiast. Inspecting the tunnel at 4:30 a. M. Every day, shooting a few baskets on the concrete floor of the park during lunch break, and playing two pick-up games with friends on weekends—this is his whole life. Until one day, a mysterious text message appeared on his phone. "The NBA star development system has been bound." He thought it was a prank and crossed it out. But on the second and third days, the system interface popped up repeatedly and could no longer be deleted. Doubtful, Yang Hong began to train according to the system's requirements: four hours a day, early in the morning, lunch break, and late at night, trying to find every opportunity. Calluses formed on my palms, and my shoulders became inflamed from training, without stopping for a hundred days. The first skill is five thousand points. He accidentally selected Rondo's dribbling and organizational awareness, and from then on there was no opponent on the wild court. But Yang Hong knew that the real battlefield was not here. From the CBA draft training camp to the Nets bench, from being despised to being seen, from Irving being injured and taking over to playing alongside his idol Harden - an ordinary person's NBA dream is becoming reality step by step on the court at 4:30 in the morning. This is not a story about talent, it is a story about an ordinary person who uses his persistence day after day to make the impossible possible.
