These minor matters did not distract Li Feng. As soon as he returned to school, he found Curry.
Ever since he had transmigrated, he had wanted to meet Curry because, in his previous life, he had been a fan of Curry.
Although they had spoken on the phone several times and he had heard Curry's distinctive duck-like voice, Li Feng was still eager to meet Curry in person.
Upon seeing Curry, the two shared a big hug.
"Oh, Li Feng, it's incredible. You're simply amazing!" Curry didn't know what else to say. Li Feng's performance in the Olympics had shocked him greatly.
"Stephen, let's not talk about that. Let's discuss the training plan. We must achieve great results in the NCAA!"
Curry was taken aback. He realized that Li Feng's skills had not only improved rapidly but his competitive spirit was also different from before.
"Haha, Li Feng, you're too impatient. I still want to hang out with you for a couple of days."
"No more playing around. Time waits for no one, Stephen! Don't you want to win the championship?" Li Feng punched Curry's chest.
"Win the championship..."
Although Curry was confident, he hadn't dared to think about winning the championship yet.
"What, Stephen? As the Splash Brothers, you haven't even thought about winning the championship?"
Curry smiled helplessly. "Li Feng, you know, those big guys have all graduated. The remaining players, besides you and me, aren't that strong."
Li Feng grabbed Curry's shoulders and said seriously, "Stephen, we'll start training now. If we perfect our three-point shooting, are we still afraid of not winning the championship?"
Curry scratched his head and looked at Li Feng, feeling as if he didn't recognize him.
"Alright, then... do you have any good training methods?"
"Follow me!"
No sooner said than done!
Li Feng pulled Curry straight to the gymnasium.
It was still a holiday, and the gymnasium was empty.
Li Feng, following Mike's training methods, began practicing three-pointers with Curry.
Curry's three-point shooting was naturally gifted; mere effort couldn't reach his level.
However, with the system's assistance, Li Feng's three-point ability improved rapidly. Therefore, Curry was astonished when he saw Li Feng during training.
During training, both of them shot from a distance of one meter beyond the three-point line, and Li Feng was almost unerring.
"Oh, my God, Li Feng, your three-pointers are too accurate!" Curry held his head and exclaimed dramatically.
Li Feng smiled, "Of course. If I weren't accurate, would I dare to be called the Splash Brothers with you?"
Stimulated by Li Feng, Curry also brought out his best skills and trained diligently.
After training for over three hours, Li Feng suddenly discovered that his three-point attribute in the system had increased by two points, reaching 85!
While he was surprised, Li Feng saw a description in the system.
[When the host trains with a historical three-point king, the three-point attribute will improve rapidly!]
Li Feng was overjoyed. Such a good thing actually existed!
After training, the two discussed some tactical issues.
Through this Olympic experience, Li Feng's practical experience had improved significantly, and his understanding of various tactics had deepened.
Curry learned a lot more from Li Feng.
"Stephen, your previous playstyle was too team-oriented. In fact, you could play some isolation ball." Li Feng said earnestly.
Curry was confused. He believed that team basketball was the most powerful, and individuals should submit to the collective.
"Hey, Li Feng, I don't think you're right. Basketball is a team sport."
Li Feng shook his head, "Curry, team basketball isn't wrong, but you're underestimating your own abilities!"
Curry became even more confused. "Underestimate myself? I'm just good at three-pointers, what other abilities do I have?"
"No!" Li Feng raised his voice, "You're not just good at three-pointers. Don't let three-pointers limit your abilities."
Since Li Feng had transmigrated, he had personally witnessed Curry's transformations in the NBA over the years.
Curry did indeed initially position himself as a three-point shooter, but later, Curry gradually developed his abilities in all aspects.
Even after the age of thirty, Curry started gaining muscle, and his finishing ability around the basket improved significantly.
Thus, Li Feng explained the tactics that suited Curry.
"My goodness, Li Feng, the tactics you're talking about, even our coach, Mike Krzyzewski, hasn't mentioned!"
Li Feng nodded, "Yes, these are just my personal thoughts. We'll have to discuss them with Mike Krzyzewski later."
Curry's admiration for Li Feng grew, and a new thought formed in his mind: he hoped to play with Li Feng forever.
...
Two days later, Li Feng held a small press conference. He announced to the media that he would continue to participate in the NCAA and then enter the NBA draft in 2009.
The reason was simple: only a high draft pick could attract a team's attention.
Davidson College's Wildcats were not highly regarded before.
However, after Li Feng's return, they immediately became a hot favorite.
Of course, in terms of paper strength, the Wildcats were not very strong.
The NCAA season began.
Because within the same conference, the schools were all weak.
Although Davidson College lacked strong interior players, with the explosive shooting of the Splash Brothers, no team could stop them. They dominated every opponent.
Soon, Davidson College blazed through the competition, achieving a proud 19-game winning streak!
This record was the best achievement for Davidson in many years.
Moreover, it wasn't just the impressive record; the playing style of Curry and Li Feng was unique in the NCAA, attracting countless fans.
In 2008, who could have imagined such a style of play in the league!
In 2008, when speaking of three-point shooting, the first player fans thought of was Reggie Miller, and the second was Ray Allen.
The characteristics of these two players were that they rarely shot off the dribble; they basically relied on off-ball movement, received passes from teammates, and hit three-pointers!
However, most of Curry and Li Feng's three-pointers were off the dribble, and they shot from over a meter beyond the three-point line.
Even if they shot, their hit rate was exceptionally high!
This caused great distress to their opponents.
Sometimes, Davidson would be trailing by more than twenty points, but suddenly Li Feng and Curry would hit a series of three-pointers, and the score would be tied.
How could anyone play like this?
It was a style of play that seemed to come from the heavens.
Through their explosive performances, fans felt they had been deceived.
Because it was consistently believed that the 2009 draft class would be weak, with few stars emerging.
Only Griffin seemed to have superstar potential.
As for others like Harden, the media believed he would at best be an All-Star.
As for Curry, the media considered him just a three-point shooter, possibly not even an All-Star.
However, the performances of Curry and Li Feng over the past few months had shocked everyone.
The media's sentiment had shifted.
Li Feng's popularity overshadowed Griffin and Harden, and there were even calls for him to be the top pick.
But Li Feng remained clear-headed; as long as he could be drafted in the top five, it would be enough.
