But as Roger dribbled, he suddenly made a nutmeg maneuver against Prokhorov! In the hands of an athlete like Roger, the basketball felt like an extension of his body, controlled effortlessly!
When the Russian oligarch realized what had happened and tried to chase back, Roger already had the ball from behind him, jumped up, and completed a backward layup.
After landing, Roger adjusted his tie: "You're pretty good, sir."
Mikhail Prokhorov laughed heartily and applauded; he enjoyed Roger's arrogant style.
Men who play competitive sports don't need to be timid, overly modest.
"Shall we continue?"
"Come on, Roger, I don't want to lose basketball as a hobby from now on. I have to admit, this is the most painful beating I've received in the United States."
"I heard you usually train in free fighting?"
Prokhorov's face immediately changed: "Hey, I definitely can't compete with you on that!"
After just one round of play, Prokhorov took Roger and Fleisher to his office.
