Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

At the beginning of the third quarter, Wu Dao returned to the court and scored against the defense of two people. Although he had been sitting on the sidelines for the entire quarter, his touch was not affected at all.

Just one goal made the Bulls coach realize that his emphasis on the young man was not wrong. None of the targeted adjustments he made during the break failed.

Seeing the martial arts in the court who started to quickly return to defense, the Zen master couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the stubble on his chin, with a hint of expectation in his eyes:

"Young man, let's really feel the intensity of the playoffs."

"Don't thank me either."

"Hum hum."

There was a chuckle from the Zen Master's mouth.

On the court, the Bulls also completed a round of offense at this time.

Jordan successfully received the ball outside the three-point line under the defense of Wu Dao. As soon as Jordan got the ball, Wu Dao quickly took a step back, half a meter away from Jordan, and established a defense line one step inside the three-point line.

His defense, to Jordan, was like saying "Just shoot! You can't make the shot anyway!"

Faced with such naked ridicule, it is of course impossible for Jordan to be convinced. He is a "god" with no shortcomings on both offense and defense.

Such thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and Michael Jordan quickly raised the ball after a brief adjustment.

After raising the basketball, Jordan quickly glanced at Martial Arts from the corner of his eye and found that the young man really continued to stand inside the three-point line and had no intention of coming out to defend.

Jordan, who had raised the basketball high, also quickly collected the ball. Seeing that martial arts was unmoved by the fake move, Jordan immediately raised the ball again and shot a three-pointer directly.

After Wu Dao saw Jordan's obvious tendency to shoot, he slowly raised his arm, symbolically interfered, and then rushed inside, preparing to grab the rebound.

"Dang~"

Sure enough, with a soft sound, the basketball crashed out of the basket. Ben Wallace under the basket was not as tall as his opponent, but his strength and experience in blocking positions were indeed able to compete with the Bulls' substitute inside players, and he noticed When Wu Dao returned to the basket to protect the frame, Ben Wallace quickly changed his strategy and focused on blocking, with no intention of jumping to grab the ball.

Coincidentally, the rebound fell in the direction of Wu Dao. With the help of Wallace's desperate blocking, Wu Dao easily took the ball into his arms and glanced at the smiling Wallace. Wu Dao Also aware of Wallace's intention.

This dude.

Are you actually planning to help yourself improve your rebounding data? !

Wallace himself was the most likely to win the rebound just now after it missed his opponent, but he gave up? !

Wu Dao secretly remembered Wallace's operation in his mind. After taking the ball for a few steps, he saw the Bulls players quickly returning to defense. He also gave up the idea of ​​a fast break and gave it to Chris Kyle. Slowly ran towards the front court.

As the Timberwolves players approached, Jordan, who was guarding Mitchell, couldn't help but look sideways at the matchup between Budao and Kuqi.

But this time, Wu Dao did not use force to create space for himself to catch the ball. This style of play was too laborious. Although Wu Dao does not have physical problems, in the professional arena, there are so many games to play, so it can save energy. When doing so, be sure to save your energy.

Facing Kukchi's defense, Wu Dao quickly moved forward to the right. After the opponent pursued him, Wu Dao turned around and ran back, quickly running behind Chris Kyle at the top of the arc.

Kukchi's defensive action was a beat slow, and he was pulled nearly a meter away by Wu Dao.

In the blink of an eye, Wu Dao had already arrived behind Chris Kyle. At the same time, Chris Kyle also passed the ball from hand to hand and turned back to Wu Dao. At the same time, he raised his hands back and got stuck in the opponent's position. Ron Harper.

At the same time, Kukchi also quickly pursued Wu Dao. At the top of the arc, Wu Dao, who was nearly one meter away from the three-point line, raised the ball with both hands and looked like he was trying to shoot.

The chasing Kukqi saw this scene without thinking, and rushed towards Wu Dao. Wu Dao was different from Jordan. In fact, in the first quarter, Wu Dao had already proved his long-range shooting with a super long three-pointer. Able.

That buzzer-beating shot, even now, is still fresh in Cookic's memory.

Kukchi flew to defend, and Ron Harper was stuck behind Chris at the first opportunity. For Wu Dao, now is indeed a better shooting opportunity.

But at the same time, this is also a better opportunity to make a breakthrough!

The basketball in Wu Dao's hand dropped rapidly. After a low-altitude dribble, Wu Dao's figure quickly crossed Cookqi and Ron Harper with just one step and headed straight towards the Bulls' basket.

Wu Dao's sudden advance was too fast and too sudden. With his explosive power, it only took two steps from start to acceleration. In the blink of an eye, Wu Dao had already approached the free throw line with the ball.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Bulls insiders Bill Wennington and Joe Klein, Wu Dao, who cut quickly, stepped on the free throw line and jumped directly into the air.

"!!!"

Facing Wu Dao's rapid attack on the basket, Bill Wennington and Joe Klein both chose to block the shot at the first opportunity. Their movements were almost synchronized, taking a quick step forward and raising their hands to block the shot.

Wu Dao's body gliding towards the basket quickly collided with Bill Wennington and Joe Klein. Under the violent body collision, Wu Dao's momentum in mid-air stopped, and the basketball that was originally held high, It was also a quick pull down, and then sent from Bill Wennington's armpit to the backboard.

At the same time, Bill Wennington and Joe Klein noticed Wu Dao pulling the lever for a layup. Seeing that Wu Dao seemed to be unable to block Wu Dao, they simply did not stop and planned to pull Wu Dao directly.

Bill Wennington slapped Wu Dao on the shoulder, while Joe Klein slapped Wu Dao on the other arm.

Huge force hit Wu Dao's body, causing Wu Dao to be a little unbalanced in mid-air. After landing, Wu Dao stumbled and fell to the ground to relieve the pressure on his ankles. When he fell to the ground, Wu Dao's body even It also slid back more than a meter.

And just when Wu Dao fell to the ground, the soft sound of the basketball hitting the net and the referee's sharp whistle sounded simultaneously.

After the referee made an effective downward gesture for a goal, he quickly pointed at Bill Wennington and awarded the opponent a defensive foul.

When the referee made the penalty, warm applause and cheers suddenly erupted from the stands. In the corner of the front row of the stands, a black-haired young man wearing a black casual sweater clapped his hands happily after seeing this scene, cheering the name of "Martial Arts", but his voice, which was filled with several people, was Among the venues with thousands of people, it is really inconspicuous.

"ohhh——"

"It's really too strong!"

"Mitsui, that martial artist is actually your high school classmate?! It's really unbelievable!"

"This guy is really too strong!"

Next to the black-haired young man, stood a black man about 190cm tall. Seeing Wu Dao on the court walking to the free throw line, the black man grabbed the arm of the young man next to him with excitement and roared excitedly.

"Calm down, Jason, you're going to knock me out." The young man's name is Hisashi Mitsui, and his partner is Jason Terry (188cm/82kg, No. 1999 pick in the first round of 10), who was born in Seattle, both of them are members of the University of Arizona's basketball team. Although they are only substitutes, both of them are indispensable and important rotations for the University of Arizona.

Now a junior, Jason Terry is averaging 20 minutes per game.

As a sophomore, Hisashi Mitsui averages nearly 20 minutes per game.

If Martial Arts saw the current Mitsui Hisashi, he might not be able to recognize him at first sight.

Today, Hisashi Mitsui's height has been fixed at 193cm, and his weight has also reached 91kg. Compared with his high school days, Hisashi Mitsui is much stronger.

Although he is wearing a loose sweater, the traces of his exercise can still be seen from Mitsui Hisashi's strong facial lines.

Unlike the growth trajectory of martial arts, Hisashi Mitsui came to the United States early, but did not play basketball in his high school year. His weak body has no advantage at all in such a place, and Hisa Mitsui's proud shooting skills, because of the huge difference in the intensity of the game, his hit rate is really invisible when he goes on the court. people.

However, Hisashi Mitsui is not the kind of man who gives up easily, and the conditions at his home are really good enough. After entering training camps run by some former NBA stars through certain channels, Hisashi Mitsui entered a period of rapid growth. .

At the same time, his family members also had connections with Mitsui Hisashi. Finally, after donating a laboratory to the University of Arizona, Mitsui Hisashi finally successfully became a college student.

Mitsui Hisashi's family did this not because they supported Mitsui Hisashi's playing and spent a lot of money to send Mitsui Hisashi to the University of Arizona.

In fact, the University of Arizona is one of the prestigious Ivy League schools in the United States, and it itself has a considerable degree of gold content. The diploma and alumni resources of this school are also what Mitsui's father, Tomaki Mitsui, values ​​​​.

Mitsui Hisashi majored in nursing at University. This school ranks among the top ten in the United States for this subject. Mitsui Hisashi himself also has his own plans. If his talent does not allow him to become a real professional player, then he will use Other ways allow him to continue to stay in the basketball career he loves.

Fortunately, Hisashi Mitsui's body is capable of carrying meat, and he has extremely strong coordination and stability. After his body became stronger, Hisashi Mitsui gradually adapted to the intensity of the NCAA competition, and his three-pointers also improved a lot. degree of stability.

Now it has become one of the team's indispensable scoring points in the second lineup, and some scouts have cast their eyes on Hisashi Mitsui. It is expected that Hisashi Mitsui will have the quality of a second-round pick when he graduates as a senior and can be used as a forward. A fixed-point shooter who appears in the professional arena.

The University of Arizona itself has a heavy academic load, and Mitsui Hisata is a member of the basketball team. This time, he asked for leave from the school and the team to make the trip smoothly. In fact, he was able to see with his own eyes the martial arts that is now famous in the league.

Under the watchful eyes of Hisashi Mitsui and Jason Terry, Budo from the free throw line casually threw the ball. The basketball drew an arc in the air and then fell into the net with a soft sound.

The foul actions of Bill Wennington and Joe Klein did not affect the feel of martial arts. As the basketball entered the net, cheers erupted from the stands.

Hisashi Mitsui and Jason Terry in the stands were also infected by the warm atmosphere of Minnesota's home court and cheered loudly.

Jason Terry is not actually a fan of the Timberwolves. He is actually a fan of the Bulls. He just temporarily became a fan of the Timberwolves because Hisashi Mitsui invited him to watch the game.

"So strong! Martial Arts."

"As expected of you!"

"But I won't just give in. One day, I will be able to stand in a stadium like this and greet the cheers of the audience!"

Mitsui Hisashi's eyes were fixed on the martial arts who quickly returned to the defense. Not only did he not feel jealous or frustrated, but he was inspired to fight and fight in his heart.

The outstanding performance of martial arts on the field inspired Mitsui Hisashi.

In the court, the Bulls launched an attack, but this time, Michael Jordan still chose to try a three-pointer under the defense of Wu Dao.

Superstars like Jordan are sometimes a little paranoid.

Get up wherever you fall. This is also the "law" that Jordan has always adhered to.

But this time, Wu Dao's defense was obviously not as perfunctory as before. The moment Jordan was about to take action, Wu Dao jumped up and blocked the basketball in Jordan's hand.

Jordan, who just noticed Wu Dao's movements, sped up his shot, and at the same time adjusted the arc of the basketball. The basketball narrowly missed Wu Dao's fingertips and flew towards the basket.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, it fell steadily into the net with a crisp sound.

"Humph!"

After scoring the goal, Jordan let out a chuckle and smiled on his face. Standing in front of Martial Arts, I couldn't help but spread my hands and put on an expression of "I'm so embarrassed."

Jordan's three-pointer seemed to be in response to the 2+1 that Wu Dao had just played. The cheers of the fans in the stands were also suppressed by Jordan's goal.

However, the Timberwolves quickly launched a counterattack.

Ben Wallace raised his position to provide an off-ball screen for Wu Dao. With Ben Wallace's pick-and-roll, Wu Dao did not move toward the inside, but ran directly to the right corner.

But this time, Chris had an insight into Wu Dao's movement intention in advance, and the ball arrived when the man arrived.

Joe Klein on the inside didn't have time to cover up the defense. He could only watch as Budo received the ball from the three-point line in the corner and directly shot an open three-pointer at a 0-degree angle.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the basketball fell steadily into the basket.

The clean response to the ball also caused the stadium to burst into warm cheers again.

"This boy"

Jordan looked at Wu Dao who confidently returned to defense after the ball was released. He also felt troubled. Looking at Wu Dao's back, he greeted Kuqi and said:

"You guard him."

"I'll guard against that boy!"

As he said that, Jordan pointed with his thumb at Sam Mitchell, who had run a few steps, and his expression became serious.
