Chapter 21: Against the Mavericks

I don't know how long it took, Chamberlain was teleported to the door of the "training camp" again, exhausted, he subconsciously glanced at his prestige, and then he found that in this short period of time, his prestige has increased by more than minus 90,000, and it is almost 200,000.

Chamberlain: "......"

"How big of a deal did Wang Juekai do?"

With such a question, after returning to reality, Chamberlain turned on the computer in the hotel regardless of the soreness coming from his body.

But he obviously thinks too much, in all the online media in the United States, there is not a single word about him, and almost all the focus of people's talk here is on LeBron James, who has also just finished the first summer league.

"So ......"

Chamberlain suddenly thought of a place, and he hurriedly "climbed over the wall" and landed on a forum in China.

"Chamberlain!"

"In the first game of the summer league, Chamberlain scored eight points in anger!"

"A man like the wind, on the number of falls Chamberlain made in the game!"

Looking at these posts, looking at the screenshots that seemed to be very attentive and specially selected for his failure in the confrontation with his opponents, and even the fake pictures themselves that were photoshopped, Chamberlain only felt a blackness in front of him.

Well, that's joyful.

Chamberlain is not worried about being hacked now, he is only worried that he does not have enough people, anyway, after he fights, these will be reversed sooner or later.

"Hey, the only one who can 'help' me so wholeheartedly is that 'parasite', good man, this time there is such a big disturbance, it must have cost a lot of money, thank your father for giving birth to a son who is so generous. But...... Fortunately, my mom and dad are uneducated and can't use the Internet!"

For the first time in his life, Chamberlain felt a deep sense of gratitude for the educational cause of his motherland.

Between the visible benefits and the invisible harms, Chamberlain naturally knew what to choose, so until he quit a certain forum, he did not leave any statement to defend himself in any of the obviously fabricated posts.

However, just in case, he hung up the phone with his parents.

Chamberlain's father was very happy to receive a call from his son, but before he could say a word, the phone was taken away by Chamberlain's mother.

"I'm fine, Mom, you and my dad can rest assured!"

Under Chamberlain's repeated emphasis, his mother reluctantly hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chamberlain finally let go of the last bit of worry in his heart, because the excitement on the Internet did not affect the reality.

In the blink of an eye, the second game of the summer league began, and this time the Spurs' opponent was the Dallas Mavericks. In this game, Chamberlain finally met someone he knew, the Mavericks' No. 29 pick, Josh Howard.

James' participation in this summer league has indeed stimulated other rookies, and it is rare for a first-round pick to participate in such a game in previous years.

However, Howard played as a small forward, not in line with Chamberlain, but in the game, position was never the main factor that prevented the two from "loving each other".

Josh is the core of the Mavericks' current team, there's no doubt about it, and it just so happens that as the only player with a contract with the team, Chamberlain is theoretically too.

In the jump ball, Chamberlain unexpectedly defeated the Mavericks' "floor flow" warriors and put the basketball in the hands of his point guard teammates.

In Summer League, because everyone is fighting for their place on a team, there are always fearless American "heroes" in games like this, most of whom would rather trust their luck than their teammates.

However, Chamberlain's point guard teammate, as soon as he entered the three-point line, handed the basketball to him who ran to the weak side of the opposing defense.

In fact, it was a "dump" pass. Josh's astonishing unanimous vote for the 2003 ACC Player of the Year defensive prowess made point guards' individual breakthroughs feel like a quagmire.

However, it was a once-in-a-lifetime scoring opportunity for Chamberlain, who immediately took off with a light step before the Mavericks' black and rough pull was out.

However, it was Josh's defense that was done before Chamberlain's offensive preparations.

Josh's astonishing defensive enthusiasm, explosive movement speed, coupled with his terrifying reach, made him, who was only two meters and one, stand in front of Chamberlain like a mountain, blocking all of Chamberlain's space to shoot.

Chamberlain's reach was also good, but his bounce was terrible. Looking at Josh's slightly bulging mouth, which was about to be pressed against his face, Chamberlain turned the wrist position that was intended to be thrown high into a downward pressure and passed the basketball from Josh's armpit to the hands of the outside player in the open position.

This made the Spurs' assistant coach shine, you must know that although the current NBA has just ended the era of the "four centers", the center with such passing ability is still a rare commodity.

Spurs' coach Chamberlain, who was in a hurry, added a sentence to his personal evaluation: "The court has a wide field of vision and good passing ability!"

It even made him forget that the team's small forward converted Chamberlain's pass into a discus-throwing shake and sigh that was standard both in posture and result.

Not getting a block once seemed very surprising to Josh, who not only looked Chamberlain up and down at the bamboo-like Chamberlain.

But Chamberlain didn't have time to pay attention to Josh's "affectionate" eyes, and flew back to the Spurs' basket before the Mavericks' center passed the protected rebound to their point guard.

The Mavericks' point guard is also an American "hero", but he broke through to the basket and ran into big trouble.

"Prediction!"

Chamberlain, who was preoccupied, stood on the Mavericks' point guard's breakthrough route with a reaction speed comparable to that of a conditioned reflex. This made the opponent's breakthrough suddenly ugly, and more importantly, Chamberlain's almost instantaneous reaction did not give him time to adjust the direction of his breakthrough at all.

Shake the pot, see the pot again!

Josh Howard, the "Pick-up Man," received the basketball.

Josh's No.5 shirt is the 10th retired shirt in Wake Forest's history and the first since Tim Duncan's jersey was retired in 1997.

Therefore, under his simple appearance, this is actually a very hanging teenager.

Josh caught the ball and went inside, and the black teenager who can run and jump never misses any opportunity to perform a dunk.

"Huh?"

To Josh's surprise, the opponent's hemp center came up in time.

However, some people are champions, and some people are vagabonds for 10,000 years, and this attack shows that there is an essential difference between people.

Faced almost in the same situation as the team's point guard, Josh only needed one turn to get around Chamberlain.

"Boom!"

Before Chamberlain, who had turned around, jumped up, Josh completed the dunk.
