Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

The second quarter of the game between the Timberwolves and the Warriors began. Seeing the Timberwolves players in this quarter, the then Warriors head coach P.J. Carlesimo also turned his head slightly and looked at the yellow man in the Timberwolves team. players.

"That No. [-] pick this year."

"It seems to be called martial arts, right?"

Carlesimo was thinking in his mind, then turned around and called the assistant coach beside him, asking him to find relevant information about martial arts.

During this year's draft, Carlesimo actually paid attention to martial arts-related information for a while, but as his goals became clear later, he selectively forgot about unimportant player information.

Now seeing that martial arts has appeared among the Timberwolves' players, Carlesimo temporarily asked his assistant to find relevant information.

NBA-level teams will start to find ways to conduct various research on teams in the same division before the start of the season.

Starting from the preseason, player information that needs attention will appear in the hands of the head coach in series.

The head coach will preset corresponding techniques and tactics based on the impression of the opponent in his mind.

For example, those NBA stars have been studied countless times by various teams.

However, players at the martial arts level do not receive such high standards of treatment.

At this time, the Warriors' assistant coach found information from the bag that was also season information from the martial arts high school.

"Was it put up to attack the enemy?"

"Can high school players adapt to NBA-level games and perform effectively?"

Carlesimo glanced at the martial arts information and easily judged the Timber Wolf's intentions.

After all, among the information on martial arts, the most dazzling one is undoubtedly the scoring data of martial arts.

If the Timberwolves put such a player in the second quarter at this time, they couldn't let the opponent provide assists, right?

In the stadium, the second quarter of the game begins.

Since the winner of the jump ball was the Warriors, the Timberwolves had the ball in both the second and third quarters.

As the basketball was released from the backcourt, the Timberwolves players pressed forward one after another towards the frontcourt.

Marbury is holding the ball for the Timberwolves. After entering the Timberwolves, Wu Dao's tactical positioning is that of an attacker who is responsible for attacking difficulties.

Marbury, on the other hand, is the kind of player who holds the ball for a long time and is the core player on the court who connects the team.

For the Timberwolves currently on the court, the core players all have different tasks.

As Marbury approached the top of the key with the ball, the Warriors' "Madman" Terrill Sprewell also quickly defended. In the second quarter, the Warriors just let Joe Smith on the inside rest and replaced him with another player. An insider, Todd Fuller, who is 211cm tall and weighs 116kg.

The remaining players have not changed, and even the big center Dampier is still on the court.

The Warriors' idea is very simple. First, use sufficient inside strength to wear down the Timberwolves' inside players.

The Timberwolves' center position, whether it is Stanley Roberts or Cherokee Parks, is not the kind of player to lift up.

As long as the Warriors can hold down the Timberwolves' Garnett to death, the Timberwolves' inside line will not be able to make any tricks.

In order to allow the team's pitchers to maximize their strength, it is necessary to first defeat Garnett, an excellent inside player.

The Timberwolves don't have many offensive points, and Marbury won't get much advantage in facing off against Latrell Sprewell. As long as Garnett and Marbury can't explode, Tom will not be able to do anything at all. There is no need to worry.

In the NBA, Tom Gugliotta has proven that he is at best an All-Star substitute player.Moreover, his offensive ability also determines that he cannot stand up at critical moments.

The Timberwolves are a team with a high lower limit and an average upper limit, and they are also easy to target. Because of this, the Timberwolves have never been able to make the playoffs. Even if they do make it to the playoffs, I am afraid it will not be possible. The situation of being eliminated in the first round.

If there is any change in the Timberwolves team, there is only one person!
In the court, Marbury made a simple dribbling adjustment under his crotch. Seeing that Latrell Sprewell didn't show any obvious flaws, Marbury quickly looked inside.

Garnett knew something from his mind, quickly moved up, and set a pick-and-roll for Marbury.

Just when everyone's attention was focused on Marbury and Garnett, Wu Dao, who was originally standing near the corner of the three-point line, suddenly accelerated and passed Tang Yeer who was guarding him. ·Marshall, cutting quickly towards the inside.

Donyel Marshall was chasing closely. Although his explosive power was weaker than that of Wu Dao, the distance between Tangyel Marshall and Wu Dao was only about half a meter, which was not enough for Wu Dao to have a chance to catch the ball.

Marbury relied on Garnett's pick-and-roll in the high post to break through. However, the Warriors responded very well and the players switched defenses in a timely manner. Marbury did not have the ability to break through except being able to exit the three-point line to shoot three-pointers. Opportunity.

Just when everyone thought that the Timberwolves would re-adjust their offensive formation, Wu Dao, who was charging towards the inside, suddenly stopped, ran back, returned to the middle distance, and directly resisted Tang Ye, who also braked and caught up with his back. Marshall Marshall.

When Marbury saw Wu Dao asking for the ball, he no longer hesitated and quickly released the ball. After releasing the ball, he quickly returned to the top of the arc. At this time, Garnett also quickly turned around and cut inside.

The Warriors' basket was not empty, and Garnett's cut was not a good opportunity.

But Wu Dao actually had no intention of releasing the ball after receiving the basketball in the low post.He clearly knows what the Timberwolves are facing now.

After a ball blast, Wu Dao's body leaned directly on Donyel Marshall. The height difference between the two was almost the same, but Wu Dao's weight was more than ten kilograms larger than the opponent's.

Although Wu Dao has just graduated from high school, his power is very powerful.

"Boom!"

After an inaudible muffled sound, Donyel Marshall, who was behind Wu Dao, obviously did not expect this yellow man to be so powerful and was pushed back a step. Wu Dao also turned his back and jumped directly after another explosive ball. Stepping into the basket, he grabbed the ball with both hands and shot it directly into the basket.

Dampier, the Warriors' inside man, was all focused on Garnett at the moment and was unable to stop Wu Dao from entering for a dunk.

Moreover, Wu Dao's movements were so fast that Marshall was completely overtaken by Wu Dao without even being able to delay Wu Dao.

"Wow—"

In the stands, the Minnesota fans suddenly cheered, and the cheers poured into the field like a surging wave.

The audience enthusiasm for NBA games is really significantly different from other games. Listening to the cheers of the people around him, a smile appeared on Wu Dao's face.

"oh~"

"shit!"

"Donyer, what are you doing?"

"How can you not even guard a high school student?!"

Garnett watched the martial arts fly past his eyes under the basket and dunked with both hands.

When Wu Dao fell to the ground and turned around to defend, Garnett also complained to Donyel Marshall who failed to defend.

His relationship with martial arts.
How should I put it, some of them dislike each other.

Garnett has always been brooding about the "pure cotton" shirt given to him by Budao, while Budao despises Garnett for being a mouthy guy.

The two of them can still play well together on the court, but when it comes to friendship, it's really average.

Seeing martial arts dunks is more uncomfortable than killing Garnett.Garnett's "sincere" words fell into the ears of Donyel Marshall, which was a naked mockery.Garnett's method of helping Buda draw hatred also achieved good results.

Donyel Marshall, who was running towards the frontcourt, looked obviously a few shades darker.

The Timberwolves' No. 94 pick in the first round of 4 felt the deep malice from the newcomers of his old club.

In the court, the offense and defense switch.

After receiving a pass from his teammate, Latrell Sprewell called a pick-and-roll, took a step directly in the direction of the pick-and-roll, and then shot a high jump shot.

At a time when the magic ball theory has not yet become popular, "superstars" like Latrell Sprewell often choose this kind of shot that seems to be open, but is actually "unreasonable".

"Clang~~"

With a soft sound, the basketball fell out of the frame and was directly held by Garnett under the basket.

Garnett, who was grabbing the ball with both hands, was just about to release the ball for a fast break, when he saw that Wu Dao had already crossed the center line. On the other hand, Marbury, who wanted to push for a fast break, was defeated by the experienced Latrell Spurs. Revell got stuck and couldn't pick up the speed.

Some things off the court did not affect Garnett's judgment.

The basketball was thrown out directly by martial arts, and was caught by martial arts that crossed the midline.

And just when Wu Dao took the ball and approached the top of the arc, Donyel Marshall quickly blocked Wu Dao.

At this moment, Marbury finally came to the corner of Wu Dao's back side and stretched out his hand towards Wu Dao to ask for the ball.

Wu Dao, who was holding the ball, paused slightly and glanced sideways at Marbury. Wu Dao, who was floating and dribbling the ball in his hands, suddenly dropped his center of gravity at this moment. With a press of his body, he changed direction and accelerated, quickly passing from Tang Ye. Marshall's right side breakthrough.

Donyel Marshall tried to follow up with a slide, but Wu Dao was extremely fast. With just one blast, Wu Dao had already reached the basket. Under Marshall's pursuit, he grabbed the ball with his left hand and directly poured the ball into the basket. among.Donyel Marshall, who was pursuing from behind, didn't even take off and stood on the ground to "pay attention."

"ohhhhh!!!"

As Wu Dao scored another dunk, cheers suddenly erupted from the stands.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Timberwolves chased by 4 points, and the score reached 26:21, narrowing the point difference to 5 points.

A 9-point score difference gives people a completely different feeling than a 5-point score difference.

The 9 points scored before reaching double figures obviously gave the fans a stronger sense of oppression.

Seeing that the score difference became 5 points, the fans also relaxed, and their voices became obviously full of energy.

"This yellow man's breakthrough is so sharp!"

"It went away in the blink of an eye, and I already scored 4 points as soon as I came on the field."

The ball possession alternated in the stadium, and a few fans in the front row of the stands stood up and cheered while sitting in their seats and chatting about martial arts on the court.

"Budo!"

"I think there is no problem for the team to choose him!"

Seeing Wu Dao's performance in these two goals, some fans immediately started shouting as an afterthought.

At this moment, a fan nearby let out an exclamation, and several fans chatting immediately turned their heads and looked towards the field.

He happened to see Wu Dao make a sudden thrust and squeeze Jim Jackson away with his body. He directly picked up the basketball that fell on the ground and quickly counterattacked towards the frontcourt.

It turned out that just now, Jim Jackson made a suspended dribble when facing Wu Dao's defense, intending to seduce Wu Dao's position to facilitate a breakthrough.

But he underestimated Wu Dao's speed and wingspan. Wu Dao just made a move, compressing Jim Jackson's dribbling space, and then reached out directly to the basketball.

With a wingspan far exceeding that of Jim Jackson, Wu Dao touched the basketball with one hand and easily knocked the ball down.

In the court, Wu Dao took the lead and accelerated toward the Warriors' half court. Jim Jackson did not give in and followed behind Wu Dao. Because Wu Dao bent down to pick up the ball, Jim Jackson entered the acceleration phase before Wu Dao. During the chase, Jim Jackson gradually narrowed the gap with Wu Dao who was advancing with the ball.

When Wu Dao approached the top of the Warriors arc, Jim Jackson had already come behind Wu Dao and reached out to slap the basketball in Wu Dao's hand.

Noticing the rapid footsteps behind him, Wu Dao turned his head slightly, looked behind him with his peripheral vision, and found that Jim Jackson was the only one, and his body relaxed.

When the basketball rebounded, his right hand casually moved towards the backboard, and Wu Dao also accelerated directly and rushed towards the basket.

"Bang!!"

The basketball hit the backboard. The moment it rebounded, Wu Dao had already reached the basket, jumped up, grabbed the basketball in the air, and then glided towards the basket.

Just when Wu Dao was about to perform a self-throwing and self-grabbing chop, Jim Jackson suddenly appeared behind Wu Dao and pulled his hand directly on Wu Dao's shoulder.

The huge force caused Wu Dao's gliding momentum to stall, and Wu Dao's upper body also tilted.

However, in such an unbalanced posture, Wu Dao grabbed the ball with his right hand and sent the ball to the basket before it hit the ground.The next moment the basketball was thrown, Wu Dao also quickly fell to the ground, staggered back and hit Jim Jackson directly.

Jim Jackson, who was already unstable on the ground, fell directly to the floor when Wu Dao hit him. On the contrary, Wu Dao staggered and stood upright.

The thrown basketball lightly hit the base of the basket, then rolled along the inner basket and then fell into the net.

The moment the ball scored, the referee's whistle also sounded.

In local games, the referee's penalty is unlikely to be biased in favor of the other team. It is more reasonable. This ball does not need to be biased, it only needs to be fair.

The referee gestured towards the players to indicate that the goal was valid.

Not only that, Wu Dao also got a chance to impose additional penalties.

2+1.

Minnesota fans cheered immediately when they saw this scene. At this time, not only the Warriors' coaching team was a little dazed, but the Timberwolves' coaches and substitutes were also a little dazed.

Then he cheered belatedly.

"Good defense!"

Wu Dao looked down at Jim Jackson on the ground, praised him, and stretched out his hand towards him.

It's easy to tell whether the opponent did it intentionally or not. If you really want to foul this kind of ball intentionally, it won't be your shoulders, but your neck.

After being pulled up by Wu Dao, Jim Jackson looked at the yellow man walking to the free throw line, but he still didn't come back to his senses.

Can such a ball be scored? !

Jim Jackson still felt that it was not very real, he felt as if he was dreaming.
