On a certain basketball training gym in New York, United States of America 2008.
'swoosh'
"haaa....haaa...hhaaa"
As the basketball finally went inside the hoop, Dante Strife, a man with white hair and blue eyes can be seen panting on the floor 45 degrees around the three point line.
"Ding--!"
At this moment, a crisp bell sounded in Dante's mind, which startled him, making him stand up from the floor.
"What the hell?"
"The basketball system is being bound....."
A strange, cold and emotionless voice kept ringing in his ears.
Dante looked around in a daze and found that other people around him were engrossed in their own business, as if they hadn't heard a loud sound at all.
"Could it be that this is the system that I have been waiting for, for three years?"
Dante's heart beat violently, tears were about to fall in his eyes. It was a challenge to hold it in considering his emotional state after just getting dumped yesterday by his first love.
[Ding! It is detected that the host is 18 years old. It is detected that the host is in great emotional turmoil. The current identity is recently dumped model/actor who is depressed and frustrated. This meets the systems upgrade requirements. The NBA hero system is activating.]
[Ding! The NBA hero system is activated and a gift package for newbies is rewarded. May I ask the host if he wishes to receive it?]
As expected of you system! you can be late but never truly absent! Those novels in my previous life were true!
Dante was immediately filled with excitement! All his depression and frustration suddenly disappeared as it was flushed down the drain, making his mind clearer.
If not for Dante worrying that the other people in the gym will think that he has gone crazy and might send home to an asylum, He would have shouted to top of his lungs until his throat was sore!
As someone who loves basketball, proven by the fact that he takes it as a hobby and for fitness. Dante naturally dreamed of becoming a professional player.
Unfortunately, countless people in this world are limited by their physical talents, so Dante, relying on his high intelligence quotient and rational views, opted not to pursue a career in basketball but chose to pursue the safer way and become a model/actor to gain a quick buck and chose to make basketball as a hobby instead.
We all know where that took him. Two years of wasted time and barely making a big break.
Now that an opportunity came to him, how can he let it go easily?
At this moment, Dante didn't have any contempt for the system for being late.
Dante's heart only completely filled with excitement.
Open! The sooner the better!
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the critical strike! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 50 must score shots!]
[50 must score shots: once the host activates this feature, It must score the shot and the ball will enter inside the hoop without being blocked. On the event that the shot enters the hoop, the amount of must score shots will be go down by one. On the event that the shot was blocked, the amount of must score shots will not go down by one and will remain the same.]
[Ding! Since the host already has must score shots. The host can now activate the other features of the NBA hero system. The host can now convert his must score shots into rebounds, blocks and steals. 1 must score shot is equivalent to 1 must take rebound, and 1 must score shot is equivalent to 1 must block, while 2 must score shots is equivalent to 1 must steal and vice versa.]
[Must take rebound: when the host activates this feature, During rebound,The host can predict where the ball will go and take the ball every time without being interfered.]
[Must block: when the host activates this feature, The host can predict the opponent's shot and block the ball every time without being interfered.]
[Must steal: when the host activates this feature, the host can predict the opponents next move and steal the ball every time without being interfered.]
Dante was a little confused by the continuous system mechanical sound in his mind. It took him a long time to react and then a huge look of excitement appeared on his face.
50 must score shots? Even an idiot knows that this is meant for three pointers!
In other words, as long as he activate this feature he can shoot as many 50 three pointers in a single game..... and he can hit all of them? That's like 150 points in a game.
Dante knows it's improbable to really shoot 50 three pointers in a single game considering the level of confrontation in the NBA and his current stamina but a man can dream right? With this system and coupled with his hard work, 50 three pointers might be a stretch but 20-30 three pointers is still possible. If that's not a superstar, I don't know what is.
Coupled with his high ball quotient, Time outside of using the system features may not be able to guarantee scoring, but defense and passing are absolutely indistinguishable, Not to mention the rebounds, blocks and steals at critical moments. He's basically the god of 3D players in his rookie season.
'hahahahaha'. . . .If someone looks at Dante's face right now, They might think that he's on drugs. If a smile could stretch through the ears, Dante's smile could already reach the back of his head.
"Quick system, Tell me how to get more must hit shots." said Dante.
[System: Request Denied. The host will have to explore by himself on how to get more must hit shots.]
"Haha, system, you even know how to joke" chuckled Dante.
.
.
.
"Hello system. .. . .. . . Helloooo!"
"Crap!, system, you're not joking, are you?!"
"Okay system, isn't it just exploring by myself? Big deal, This small setback can't dampen my mood"
Dante thought that since the system is called the NBA Hero system, then the system must have something to do with the NBA. So his first priority now is to make sure that he can land in NBA but before that. . .
"System show me my parameters"
The next moment, Dante's eyes dimmed and a holographic virtual image interface appeared in front of him.
