Chapter 57: He's Going to Dunk Again!
"On the sidelines?"
As soon as Ibaka finished speaking, Wu Rui turned his head to look over.
On the Jazz side, Coach Schneider finally can't stand it, and Gordon Hayward is still a little too reluctant to lead the team alone, even if he still contributes on the offensive end, but when it comes to the defensive end, Gobert is too important.
At this point, the team's advantage is about to be wiped out, and Schneider can't care so much, Rudy Gobert is on the sidelines, and the next dead ball, he will be back on the field.
"Michael, let's go warm up."
Wu Rui's attention hadn't been taken away, and on the Magic side, Frank Vogel had already walked to his side: "You'll play later." β
After saying that, Vogel informed the other two players that they would also be substituted later.
"Coach Frank Vogel seems to have a plan of his own, even if they will face Rudy Gobert again later."
The deployment of the personnel of the two teams made the commentators shake their heads again and again: "Michael Wu has become the real savior of the Magic this night, and he and Rudy Gobert will be bundled tonight." β
Sure enough, the Magic's shot was interfered with out of bounds, the ball was converted, and at the same time, the two sides made personnel transfers.
On the Jazz side, Joe Johnson and Rudy Gobert replaced Hayward and Exum, while on the Magic side, Jeff Green, Payton Jr. and Vucevic were rested, and DJ Augustin, Ibaka and Wu Rui were replaced!
βShitοΌβ
Seeing Magic 0 high-five his teammates on the stage, Gobert couldn't help but curse in his heart.
The French, who were already unhappy with the controversial penalty, were even more indignant at this time, if Wu Rui still played exactly the same way as before, what should he do?
Watching him dunk?
Or rush up and stupidly get a defensive foul?
While Goebel was angry, he was confused.
As a defensive stalwart, this should not be a matter of worrying about hesitation, in the past, when faced with this situation, Gobert would only have one choice, which is to use his long arm to tell others that the basket is a no-fly zone.
But now, facing Wu Rui, Goebel is unpredictable.
Of course, it's just a matter of defense on the defensive end, and back on the offensive end, Gobert's long arms under the basket are a nightmare for the Magic, and the badly injured Ibaka is no match for Gobert at all.
With a long arm stretched, the French Yanzu easily scored two points.
It's just that scoring doesn't make Gobert feel relaxed, and in the face of the Magic's offense, his real problem comes!
"Double Block! Michael Wu went straight to the basket, DJ Augustine passed, Michael took off directly, and dunked with both hands! β
In the commentator's impassioned commentary, Wu Rui scored his fifth point in the game with a relaxed dunk!
"Oh, you didn't jump, I thought you would come." Landing on the ground, Wu Rui reminisced about the feeling of dunking with both hands, and looked at Gobert, who had no intention of blocking at all: "In order to avoid your long arm, I jumped higher than before!" β
Even higher!?
Although Goebel did not respond verbally, Wu Rui's words were deeply rooted in his heart!
If Wu Rui's jump was not the highest in the previous two balls, he had already caused his own defensive fouls, then if he was a little higher, wouldn't he become the background emperor of the top five balls?
Gobert was furious, in his opinion, this second-round show was laughing at himself, and he didn't dare to go up to make up for the foul!
It is simply impossible for him to jump even a centimeter higher!
Playing with anger, Gobert used the misplaced DJ Augustine as a stake on the offensive end, carried it all the way into the three-second zone, turned over and hit a hook hand, but a pair of eyes fell on Wu Rui's body fiercely!
"Come, young man, I'm waiting for you under the basket!"
The flames in Goebel's eyes made Wu Rui deeply feel the meaning of this look, and the corners of his mouth raised, he would not miss the appointment!
The Orlando Magic, which is chasing points, has become methodical, and DJ Augustin will not let Wu Rui stupidly go to Gobert, even if this style of play makes the team taste the sweetness, he still chooses to come steadily.
However, DJ Augustine likes to play steadily, and Ibaka just doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.
Catching the pass from his teammates, Ibaka didn't think about it, and directly gave the ball to Wu Rui's hands, he wanted to see if this kid could make Gobert a foul again, if it did, then before the fourth quarter started, he would eat five fouls, and Gobert would basically be wasted!
However, watching the excitement made Ibaka forget the most important point, that is, Wu Rui's basic skills are almost zero.
In order to let Wu Rui hit the ball quickly, Coach Vogel only targeted his projection, but did not let him practice dribbling, which caused Wu Rui, who held the ball outside the free throw line, to look confused, his shooting was already unstable, and now he can't shoot against the defender!
Flying and dunking here is even more of a fool's dream!
So, there was a sudden funny scene on the field, Ibaka passed the ball to Wu Rui, and Wu Rui passed the ball back to Ibaka two seconds later!
"What are Michael and Serge doing, what they are holding in their hands seems to be not a basketball, but a bomb, which will explode in the next second!" Wu Rui and Ibaka's funny actions made even the commentator laugh: "This is so funny!" β
This scene doubled Gobert's unhappiness.
A player of this caliber can cause two fouls and provoke himself, which hurts the heart of a player who is known for his defense!
Ibaka was also helpless, Wu Rui reminded him of the rookie's ability to dribble in a hurry, but there was no way, he also returned the ball to DJ Augustine and motioned for his teammates to reorganize.
There was not much time left for Augustin to regroup, and after several unsuccessful attempts to pass the ball, the point guard reluctantly shot the basketball, smashed the basketball, and went straight out!
"Bang!"
Under the basket, Gobert flew up directly, he wanted to protect every rebound, re-prove his existence, and wash away the shame of being fouled by Wu Ruilian!
"Whoosh!"
However, before Gobert could touch the ball, there seemed to be a little problem with the air circulation around him, and then, a familiar and unfamiliar body of Gobert flew up, once again preempting him and controlling the basketball!
"It's Michael again! Michael Wu grabbed another frontcourt rebound on Rudy Gobert's head! Oh my God, how many rebounds did he steal from Rudy today! β
Seeing Wu Rui grab the board and land, the commentator was just about to analyze his possible passing targets, but the next moment his eyes widened!
"Michael grabbed the rebound and didn't adjust! What is he going to do! β
"He jumped! He's going to dunk again! β
