Chapter Fifty-Eight: Defending the Home Field

Before today, ABC TV's coverage of Wu Rui was almost zero, and as ABC TV's NBA commentators, they knew more about Wu Rui, even from other media reports.

But today, sitting in the Amway Arena in Orlando, the two commentators from ABC have been stunned by this second-round rookie who doesn't know much about it!

"Toot!"

On the field, the referee blew his whistle again, and on the sidelines, after a moment of silence, the audience was boiling!

"I don't know what to say anymore, man! Michael Wu, this kid is so wild! ”

"Unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable!"

"What he did, what he did!"

The Magic fans were dumbfounded, and they all stood up, staring at the stadium with their eyes fixed on the present.

At the same time, the DJ on the scene roared Wu Rui's name!

On the Magic bench, all the players jumped up, and Aaron Gordon almost threw the towel in his hand to the audience!

"Michael!"

On the court, Ibaka jumped directly to Wu Rui's side and collided with his chest: "You kid is too wild!" ”

Wu Rui, who was the party concerned, also smiled, and high-fived his teammates fiercely, and the corners of his mouth showed a trademark smile.

"Dude, I said I would jump higher." Looking at Gobert, who fell to the ground on the other side, Wu Rui grinned: "Next time, you can still try." ”

On the floor, Goebel was powerless to refute Wu Rui's words, and his mind repeatedly replayed the picture just now, that extremely impactful moment!

Not only in Gobert's mind, but even on the big screen at the top of Amway Arena, it began to be played repeatedly.

In the picture, Wu Rui angrily picked up the offensive rebound, and then pulled it up directly, and hit Gobert is one-handed dunk, and he didn't even pause for a second during the whole process, in other words, from the moment he grabbed the rebound, Wu Rui had already thought about blocking Gobert!

And Gobert lost his center of gravity in an instant and fell to the ground due to the unstable center of gravity and Wu Rui in the air, not only that, but he also received his fifth foul in the game, and he was only one step away from being sent off!

"Utah Jazz, facing the toughest moment of this game!"

The commentator on the sidelines came back from Wu Rui's five-ball dunk and glanced at the referee's gesture: "They will face the trouble they encountered in the third quarter for most of the fourth quarter. ”

"And now, the person who caused all this is standing at the free throw line, and all that awaits him is the cheers of the fans!"

After receiving the ball sent by the referee, Wu Rui moved his body, to be honest, the collision in the air just now made his body feel like it was falling apart, and Ibaka directly bumped into it excitedly, which made Wu Rui's whole body indescribably sore.

This also led to the deformation of his shooting posture, and this time the free throw came directly to a three-no-stick!

"Hey man, don't you have a scope?"

Watching the basketball fly out of the bottom line, Ibaka couldn't help but say a word when he returned to defense.

Wu Rui could only laugh helplessly, he didn't expect it to be so direct, and he didn't even touch the net.

Magic head coach Frank Vogel on the sidelines naturally observed the movements of every player on the court in detail, and he was keenly aware of Wu Rui's physical discomfort.

After all, Wu Rui has played so far, in addition to dunking is dunking, although Gobert has been fouled three times and does not dare to make moves on the defensive end, but in fact, he has also lost 800 and should be rested.

Therefore, when the third quarter entered the last minute, Vogel applied for another substitution, Wu Rui was replaced by Jeff Green, but he was not alone, on the Jazz side, Gobert was also taken off the court.

Seeing the French Wu Yanzu end up with him, Wu Rui couldn't help laughing.

"Michael, be ready to go back to the locker room for a check-up." Wu Rui laughed, but Vogel couldn't laugh at all: "It's better to put away your smiling face on the sidelines, otherwise, you will leave the stadium earlier than the fans." ”

"Why, Coach, I'm just smiling."

"Just a smile? Think of Tim Duncan, who just smiled. ”

After that, Vogel didn't bother to explain to Wu Rui that although the third quarter was not over yet, the team had a chance to tie the score in the last minute, and he still had to pay attention to the performance of the players on the court.

And Wu Rui was taken aback by what Vogel said later!

You don't see, Shifo Duncan was punished for a technical foul just because he laughed out loud on the bench!

Thinking of this, Wu Rui quickly put away his smile, returned to the bench straight up, and sat down.

What happened on the bench naturally did not affect the game, and the game between the two teams was still anxious, but the Jazz team, who originally wanted Gobert to change the situation in the last two minutes, failed to calculate, but let the Magic seize the opportunity, and in the last few tens of seconds of the third quarter, they played a fast break and overtook the score!

In the next ten seconds, the Jazz pressed the time, but unfortunately the tactics were poorly completed and failed to regain the lead.

At the end of the third quarter, the Magic finally entered the intermission with a leading posture on their home court!

The game in the fourth quarter also became unsuspenseful, the Jazz without Rudy Gobert were completely like a different team, Vucevic wanted it on the inside, and Gordon Hayward forced the suspense of the game with his own offense, but his strength was still too thin.

Even though Gobert returned to the court in the second half of the fourth quarter, the Jazz had fallen behind by eight points at this time, and the Magic naturally did not change the lineup.

In the end, with more than three minutes left in the game, Gobert made a mistake in a defensive attack, was fouled for the sixth time, and was ruthlessly sent off.

The Salt Lake City team, which completely lost its interior pillar, completely lost the ability to resist and suffered a Waterloo in Orlando.

"93:87, Orlando Magic defends their home court, Utah Jazz can only swallow two straight defeats!"

As the red light came on at the end of the game, the Magic fans on the scene stood up and cheered, and the team was once suppressed in the first half, and finally achieved a comeback!

Although the score of this game is not high, the fans are still addicted!

After all, it was their home team's comeback at home.

After the game, reporters on the sidelines also left Vucevic, who scored 22 points and 13 rebounds, and asked.

It's just that before the reporter could speak, Vucevic grabbed the microphone and looked at the camera with a displeased face.
