Chapter 22: What's in Your Hand?

"What's going on?"

As soon as he lifted the ball, Wu Rui felt that something was wrong, and his ball holder seemed to be much lower than before.

Having experienced tens of thousands of shot trainings, it was obvious that this was not the best height for Coach Vogel to raise his hand, and he was a little panicked for a while.

I obviously came according to the posture of training for so many days, why is this happening?

"Michael, raise your hand a little higher."

Here, Wu Rui was still worried, over there, Frank Vogel sorted out the information, and glanced at Wu Rui by the way: "You haven't made so many shots, how can you still make such a low-level mistake?" ”

"You don't ignore the weight of the ball, do you?" Looking at Wu Rui looking at himself blankly, Vogel was stunned: "My God, you used to shoot without the ball in training, of course the height is no problem, but now, look at what you have in your hands!" ”

"That's a 600-gram basketball!" Vogel couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Michael, what should I say about you?" ”

Looking at Wu Rui's sudden realization, Frank Vogel didn't know whether he wanted to cry or laugh.

Wu Rui's physical talent is simply explosive, which even a strict coach like Vogel has to admit, but Wu Rui's stupid appearance, Vogel feels that such a player will be wantonly "molested" by those old hooligans on the court.

"Coach, don't say anything, I know everything."

On the other hand, seeing Vogel's expression, Wu Rui knew that his lack of low-level cognition had made his head coach very speechless to him, so he simply buried himself in training and stopped talking more.

He knew that no matter how much he talked, he would definitely expose his IQ!

After being pointed out by Coach Vogel, Wu Rui's training with the ball was much smoother, and the results after many days of non-ball shooting training also showed, and the short 1,000 shot training ended quickly, Wu Rui even practiced two more rounds, until Coach Vogel shouted to stop, he didn't stop.

Looking at Wu Rui, who was sweating profusely and wanted to continue training, Vogel was secretly satisfied, maybe in the next game, he could let this kid experience it, after all, the real game has a very meaningful impact on a rookie.

However, Vogel is still conservative about this, after all, the Magic's next opponent is not a good one.

On November 6, U.S. time, at Amway Arena in Orlando, the Orlando Magic ushered in their third home game of the season here, and before that, they had just come out of the shadow of three consecutive defeats and celebrated two consecutive wins!

The stadium was full of Magic fans who were looking forward to their home team winning three in a row at home!

"Hi man, know what I'm most looking forward to today!"

In the audience on the sidelines, fans wearing Magic home jerseys shouted to their fellow fans: "I want to see Michael Wu guy, on the head of Marcin Gortat, snatching their rebounds!" ”

Marcin Gortat, nicknamed the Polish Hammers, once played for the Orlando Magic's high-quality interior lineman, was once a dedicated substitute for Howard, and now is a visiting player at Amway Arena as an away player.

Naturally, Magic fans won't give him a good look.

"Yes, my friend, Michael Wu will make Malchin regret standing under our basket!"

In addition to watching superstars detonate the whole court, fans also like to watch role players rise and turn over, the Magic team does not have a superstar who is enough to support the Orlando ball market, but the fans did not ignore the rookie in the team who has the potential to turn over - Wu Rui!

Although Wu Rui has only appeared twice since the start of the game, it is these two brief appearances that have made many Orlando fans remember this young man who can run and jump, anyway, the team does not have a superstar to be sought after, so it is better to put Baodu on this physically gifted newcomer.

"Oh, oh, oh, the enthusiasm of Orlandos is still like fire, and the Amway Arena is full!"

As time went by, it was only a short ten minutes before the start of the game, and the broadcast footage of the scene was also given to the two commentators from TNT in the United States sitting on the commentary bench.

Of course, these two are not part of the TNT commentary team, and this game is not enough for TNT to field their biggest commentator.

"Wilson, this game is the Orlando Magic at home against the Washington Wizards, the current situation of the two teams is completely different, who do you think will have a better chance of winning?"

As the camera shifts, Jerry Midi, a commentator from TNT, throws questions to his partner, Wilson Peto.

'I think it's hard for a team in the capital to take away the win away from home. After taking over the conversation, Peyto's answer was also very simple: "First of all, the Magic team completed a double-digit score reversal in the last game, and it was on this court that they won two consecutive victories, and they are like a rainbow!" ”

"On the other hand, the Wizards who visited Amway Arena this time, they came to Orlando with the emotion of defeat, plus the main point guard John Wall is likely to miss this game because of repeated injuries, many factors are mixed together, I think the Magic team will get a long-lost three-game winning streak!"

Wilson Peto is reasonable, and what he is analyzing is what Coach Vogel instilled in his players on the bench at this time.

Although today's opponent of the Magic team is the top team in the East, their book strength is not weak, and this season's record is not satisfactory, which also shows to some extent that the Wizards so far this season are not as strong as before!

To put it bluntly, Vogel feels that in this game, the Magic will not necessarily lose, but will have a good chance of winning!

Because the team is on a two-game winning streak, and the opponent is missing All-Star point guard - John Wall!

The game was also as Coach Vogel thought, without the Washington Wizards after John Wall, the intensity was significantly reduced, and it was difficult for a single Bradley Beal to score points on the offensive end, and it was really difficult to compete with the Orlando team that blossomed more points.

At halftime, the Magic team had already taken a double-digit lead, temporarily leading the opponent by 13 points at 53:40!

Yibian fights again, the Wizards are still difficult to improve, head coach Scott Brooks also shook his head on the sidelines, the clever woman is difficult to cook, and the lack of Wall's Wizards makes the coach feel powerless!

The Wizards' side is lacking, and the Magic side is even more comfortable, Coach Vogel has been sitting firmly on the bench since the third quarter, and after glancing at the time, he also gestured towards Wu Rui on the side.

"Go warm up."
