Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

As Wu Dao successfully scored the ball with a difficult back-up in front of Duncan.

At the end of the game between the Timberwolves and the Spurs, the showdown between the "strongest rookies" that the media and fans were most looking forward to seeing finally took place on the court.

Wu Dao's goal was immediately greeted with cheers from the Minnesota fans. The roaring sound poured into the stadium, and people who didn't know about that terrifying sound thought it was someone making a buzzer-beating shot.

In the stadium, the smile on Duncan's face began to fade. He looked at Wu Dao who quickly returned to defense with his teammates. His expression was incomprehensible and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Not only Duncan, but the other Spurs players were also standing there at this moment, all looking at Wu Dao who quickly returned to defense without making any move.

It seems that the Spurs are thinking of giving up.

"All cheer me up!"

"Serve and prepare to attack!"

"The opponent is just a newcomer. You can lose the game, but you absolutely cannot lose to a newcomer!"

"attack!"

On the side of the court, Coach Popovich's eyes stayed on Wu Dao for a short time before he looked at his players. When he saw each player standing still, Popovich immediately shouted angrily.

He can accept the team losing, but he absolutely cannot accept his team members being defeated by a first-year player.

What's more, that first-year player is just a high school player!

"attack!"

Amid Coach Popovich's roar, the players on the court came to their senses one after another. While greeting the players, David Robinson picked up the basketball and went to the bottom line. While he was speaking, Duncan was already marching towards the frontcourt without saying a word.

Duncan's eyes have been sizing up Wu Dao. Before, he only looked at the matchups between his teammates and himself at the same time. Although Duncan knew that Wu Dao's attack power was very strong, he did not have a clear concept of this "strength".

But after playing against him personally, Duncan realized just how troublesome this high school student was.

The opponent has outstanding physical talent, strong explosive power, fast speed, good ball skills, accurate shooting and very long range. All the advantages of the opponent seem to be specially created for the purpose of "offensive".

In Duncan's mind, he recalled all Wu Dao's ball-holding attacks from the beginning to the present in this game, and he suddenly discovered that Wu Dao seemed to have no so-called offensive blind spots at all.

Facing such a scorer, unless talent combined with experience can completely crush martial arts, otherwise, there is no way to defend against him.

When Duncan was thinking, the Spurs guard had already brought the basketball into the frontcourt. The Spurs were still playing well on the offensive end. Chuck Parson on the outside was not open to catch the ball under the guard of Wu Dao. Chance.

The Spurs players on the side of the court were also closely watched by Tom. The Spurs finally decided to let the two players inside become the end point of the offense.

After several passes, the basketball quickly fell into the hands of David Robinson.

The game is coming to an end, and the team is still lagging behind by a big score. At this time, Robinson no longer needs to pity his physical fitness. After getting the basketball, he directly uses his body to carve a path to the basket, and then a small The hook put the ball into the basket.

Cherokee Parks had no choice but to watch the basketball fly over his head and fall steadily into the net.

Cherokee Parks' own abilities are average, and David Robinson, although he is not young, is after all a super giant in NBA history. Robinson's previous offensive inefficiencies were never due to how much Cherokee Parks played defense.

It's just because Robinson's own shot was watery, and when the shot was watery, he didn't choose to dig into the Timberwolves' inside, but continued to choose to shoot.

Part of the reason is that Tom will have the option to double-team Robinson.

The combination of these two reasons made the Spurs so passive during the half game.

Defensive failure.

Regarding this, Wu Dao had no worries at all.

Didn’t we already know that Cherokee Parks was no match for David Robinson? Need to be surprised?

Wu Dao calmly ran towards the frontcourt, while Marbury received the basketball in the backcourt, suppressed the speed of advancement, and slowly entered the frontcourt.

After entering the frontcourt, Marbury wanted to squeeze out time. Their lead was less than ten points and there was still more than a minute left. If he played too impatiently and was caught by his opponent, this would The score will also be exceeded.

"Stephen, give me the ball!"

However, at this moment, a cold voice came from beside Marbury. He turned his head slightly, and Marbury saw Wu Dao asking for the ball from him.

At this time, Wu Dao was standing outside the three-point line, leaning half sideways, with his right hand on Duncan in front of him, his left arm raised flat, and he was asking for the ball from him.

Wu Dao's expression was dull, but his eyes were determined. Seeing Wu Dao asking for the ball, Marbury hesitated briefly and quickly passed the ball to Wu Dao.

Starting with the basketball, Wu Dao moved his right foot and held the ball directly in front of his chest with both hands, leaning against Duncan.

As the basketball came into play, the media's cameras also focused on Wu Dao. After seeing Wu Dao's movements, Marbury also walked towards the left corner with interest, pulling the Spurs guard and giving Wu Dao a lift. There is enough space.

Inside, Garnett saw Wu Dao holding the ball like this and walked directly towards the baseline, giving up some position.

The audience also realized that Wu Dao was preparing for singles, and the originally noisy stands became quiet for a while.

Wu Dao held the ball in both hands and leaned back. He wanted to feel Duncan's defensive tendencies and was about to turn around and charge forward, but found that there was nothing behind him. Surprised, Wu Dao turned his head slightly and saw Duncan standing in the [-]s from the corner of his eye. Inside the three-point line outside the public domain.

Realizing this, Wu Dao pivoted with his left foot and swept his right foot in a large sweep. When he turned to face the basket, Wu Dao simultaneously lowered the basketball in Wu Dao's hand to a height of more than ten centimeters from the ground.

Wu Dao has a tall figure, but his body flexibility is very good. His action of sweeping the ball at low altitude and turning to face the basket is very smooth and beautiful.

Just a simple sweep of the ball caused the audience to let out bursts of low cheers.

When Duncan saw Wu Dao's face basket, his center of gravity dropped. He covered Wu Dao's face with his left hand and raised his right hand to guard against Wu Dao's breakthrough.

"Snapped!"

The basketball fell. When the basketball rebounded, Budao grabbed the ball with his right hand and suspended it while dribbling. At the same time, he moved half a step laterally. Just when Duncan thought Budao would explode the ball next time and make a breakthrough. But Wu Dao suddenly joined the ball and struck out without hesitation.

The speed and suddenness of the attack shocked everyone.

Duncan also didn't expect that Wu Dao would choose a three-point pull-up. When he reacted and took off, the basketball passed directly over his fingertips.

Wu Dao's shooting point was seven or eight centimeters higher than Duncan's blocking point as he jumped up in a hurry.

"There is still so much attack time, why?"

Marbury shouted anxiously, but before he finished speaking, the basketball flew quickly through the air and passed directly through the net with a crisp sound.

The crisp squeaking sound made Marbury swallow the words that came to his lips. When the audience in the stands saw Wu Dao's goal, they immediately burst into amazing cheers.

The audience also did not expect that Martial Arts handled this ball in this way. With such a small lead, instead of lengthening the offensive rhythm and reducing the number of rounds, they actually chose a radical play like a pull-up.

I have to say, it’s really surprising.

It is true that the way of playing in martial arts is very radical, but for the audience, this way of playing is also very entertaining.

The audience is watching the game, who really wants to watch two teams compete defensively?
  Gorgeous offense is what they like to see.

Of course, players can choose aggressive and beautiful styles of play, but being able to score goals is the most important thing.

An offense that cannot score goals, no matter how gorgeous it is, is of no use.

"Is this kid bloated?"

"I thought he would only play it during the team's practice games, but I didn't expect him to play like this during the NBA regular season."

The Timberwolves' players began to return to defense. When Garnett returned to defense, he looked at Wu Dao's back and thought to himself.

Although Wu Dao is a new teammate, the Timberwolves had already played many team practice games before the regular season. Garnett has some understanding of martial arts style.

It’s not like Garnett has never seen a similar ball, and of course, Marbury has seen it too.

But none of them thought Martial Arts would play like this in the regular season.

Because the practice matches are practice matches and the regular season is the regular season, the nature is different.

Therefore, when Martial Arts actually performed this kind of operation during the game, Garnett inevitably started to murmur in his heart.

unstable
  Although Garnett admitted that Wu Dao's offense is very sharp, instability means instability.
  On the side of the court, Phillip Sanders couldn't help but cover his forehead and shake it slightly when he saw Wu Dao playing like this, feeling a headache. Since I learned about martial arts at the ABCD training camp, my offensive habits have not changed at all.

Still go its own way.

When the feeling comes, there is no need to worry about what is reasonable or unreasonable.

Of course, although Coach Philip felt helpless, he didn't say much.

After all, the ball was scored, what is there to say?

The NBA is such a place.

As long as the goal is scored, everything can be justified.

Wu Dao's pull-up had a big impact on the Spurs. As the score opened up, the Spurs players' desire to win was completely gone.

In this attack, Duncan missed his hook shot when facing Garnett's defense. The basketball crashed out of the basket and the rebound was collected by Garnett.

When the Timberwolves counterattacked, Marbury learned wisely.

He knew that Wu Dao would not play according to his wishes, but to be on the safe side, when Marbury faced Wu Dao asking for the ball, he held the ball in his hands for four or five seconds before giving the ball to Wu Dao.

And when the basketball enters the hands of Wu Dao, only half of the attack time is left.

Martial arts faced the basket and held the ball. This time, Duncan didn't leave any gaps and directly hit it. After seeing Duncan's action, Wu Dao also dropped the ball at a low altitude. At the same time, he staggered his legs and dribbled the ball with his hips while taking two steps back to open up some gaps.

Duncan still didn't stop after leaving the three-point line. He knew that until now, the first-year student in front of him still had not stepped out of his shooting range!
  The moment Duncan continued to move up, Wu Dao's dribbling immediately changed. After blasting the ball with his left hand, Wu Dao stabbed directly to the left. Wu Dao's movement instantly aroused Duncan's alert, and he paused in his upward steps. , move your right foot back quickly and follow up with a sliding step.

However, when the basketball in Wu Dao's hand fell again, it bounced back to Wu Dao's right side.

Without slowing down, Wu Dao suddenly rushed to Duncan's side. At the same time, Wu Dao also stepped on the three-point line.

I have to say that although Duncan is an inside player, his footsteps are really outstanding and his physical talent is really terrifying.

When his center of gravity was shaken by Wu Dao, Duncan was able to turn around nimbly and quickly chased towards Wu Dao. When Wu Dao entered the two-step position of the three-point line, he blocked Wu Dao.
  However, Wu Dao's movements did not stop at all. Duncan's pursuit was seen by Wu Dao. Duncan rushed forward and could not stand still. Wu Dao, who was holding the ball, directly took the ball and gave Duncan a physical confrontation.

After an impact, Wu Dao paused and directly pulled up a fadeaway jumper.

What is worthy of recognition is that Duncan has a body, experience, and is a strong enough defender.

But even if he could predict all martial arts moves, he still couldn't block the current martial arts.

Only those who have fought against 107kg of martial arts know how powerful the impact is. Although Duncan's physical fitness is very good, after he was hit by a small forward of this weight, his center of gravity was still unstable and he could not jump.

Faced with Wu Dao's sudden stop and retreat, all Duncan could do was to raise his arms and try his best to interfere.

It's just that his height really doesn't affect his ability to shoot fadeaways.

The basketball flew over Duncan's head again and went directly into the net.

Wu Dao's tough attack once again ignited the Target Center Arena. The audience screamed, cheered, and waved their arms with "WD" nameplates.

On Duncan's head, he can still score consecutive points.

Wu Dao's performance in the final period seemed to give the answer to the "battle of the strongest rookies" exaggerated by the media. There was not much time left. After hitting a fadeaway jumper in a difficult martial arts confrontation, the Spurs completely lost their determination to win.

In the end, after a few rounds with the Timberwolves, Cao Cao won the game.

In the end, the Timberwolves won the half game with 110:96, relying on a huge 14-point advantage.

Wu Dao's full playing time was only a little over thirty minutes, but there is no doubt that he was the biggest contributor to the Timberwolves' victory in this game.

Wu Dao only played half of the fourth quarter, but in these short minutes, he scored 19 points efficiently with sudden shots, directly helping the Timberwolves win.

武道全场比赛砍下43分6板3助攻1抢断1封盖，数据方面虽然称不上全面，但是这又是一场得分上了40的比赛。

Moreover, the opponent Wu Dao faces is the Spurs with twin towers.

As for the Timberwolves, after seeing the terrifying power Wu Dao displayed in this game, both the players and the coaching staff had some changes in the way they looked at Wu Dao.

It's different from the previous games. In today's game, whether Wu Dao is on the court or not, the change in the team's offensive intensity is really visible to the naked eye.

From now on, I am afraid that no team can ignore Martial Arts, a first-year player in the league.

Debut is the peak, which is used to describe Duncan, and it can also be used to describe martial arts.
