Chapter 60: The Lightning

Dwyane Wade began his career in the 2003 NBA Draft when he was selected by the Miami Heat with the fifth pick in the first round.

Needless to say, the style of the court, the incomparable physical fitness, the obsession to win, throwing himself into the air countless times, not afraid of muscle collision and physical contact with the tough guys on the inside, with his extraordinary close to the basket feel, he has become a scoring maniac in the NBA.

Nickname, The Flash.

Chen Mu threw aside the information in his hand and raised his eyes to look at the game on the field.

The Heat possessed the ball, white chocolate controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and near the baseline line, Wade had already begun to run without the ball.

Although Wade at this time has not yet practiced the super off-ball ability in the later part of the original timeline. However, the addition of white chocolate has completely liberated Wade, who had played point guard for a period of time in the early part of his career, and his scoring ability and impact have been greatly exerted.

"Bang!"

After bypassing the double screen, Wade received a simple pass from White Chocolate near the free-throw line, and then turned back to get O'Neal's screen, went inside, and scored on top of Hunter's head.

β€œTheFlash!”

Generally speaking, the home DJ will rarely take the initiative to shout out the name or nickname of the away player, but when facing a star of Wade's level, many DJs who are fans will not be able to control their volume and be infected by his energetic style.

"Everyone in the world knows your speed and change of direction, everyone knows your explosiveness and uselessness, and they all know your extraordinary lethality to the inside line, but I know that you are definitely more than that......!"

Looking at Wade's crazy scoring on the field as if he was in a no-man's land, Chen Mu couldn't help but think of Wade's game he had watched in the original timeline.

In the 2003 draft, known as the super platinum generation, several stars were born who deeply influenced the future of the league.

These stars have different styles, some are as domineering as LeBron James, some are offensive all-around like Melon Anthony, there are big forwards like Bosh who play with small forwards, and even there are fishing weirdos like Carman.

Among these people, it seems that Wade's physical fitness and talent are not the highest, but why did he become the first person in the 03 generation to wear a championship ring?

"Basics."

Chen Mu couldn't help but say to himself: "The most solid basic skills." ”

On the court, Wade's incomparably fast speed has become a nightmare for defenders, and his scoring ability under confrontation is also terrifying, but only old fans who observe very carefully will notice that Wade's basic skills are the most solid among the 03 generation.

The so-called basic skills are not only shooting and passing, for outside players, the most important basic skills in modern basketball are actually the ability to dribble.

BT Zhunru Curry, who may become Chen Mu's opponent later, dribbles with one hand. Iverson, whose speed is like lightning, is unique in his dribbling skills. Kobe Bryant, who is all-round, is not too flashy on the dribble, but he is very solid.

And Wade, among this group of new generation superstars who are known for their super physical fitness, has the most solid dribbling skills.

Low frequency, high frequency, back dribble, crotch dribble, turn, step back, back dribble......

All the dribbling skills, Wade mastered perfectly, but all of this was hidden under his explosive style of play, and no one noticed.

"Huh"

"It's Wade again! The dribble behind the back drilled through the cracks, and the difficult layup scored! HOHO, MR. IMPOSSIBLE! ”

Yes, before O'Neal gave Wade the nickname of the world-famous Flash, Wade also shared a nickname with another weird star in the league:

Mr.Impossible

Mr. Impossible.

"Toot"

The official timeout came, the players on both sides went off the court to take a break, and on the scoreboard, the 76ers tied 17-17 at home with the Heat.

"That's not right...... No, no, no, no! ”

On the bench, head coach Cheeks was furious, drew countless crosses on the tactical board, and then raised his head like a child who had made a mistake, glaring at the 76ers starters and reprimanding them.

"No defense, we don't have any defense!"

Cheeks pointed to the numbers on the real-time technical stats table and said loudly: "7 minutes of play, 17 points, we were given 17 points by them!" 15 of them are on the inside! ”

Starting inside Hunter lowered his head, knowing that the main reason Cheeks was angry was himself.

In today's game, the 76ers' hand style was very smooth at the beginning, with Iverson and Korver on the outside frequently winning and Webber constantly sending wonderful passes.

But on the defensive end, the 76ers' restricted area was burst into a sieve by the Flash.

"Wade 10 points, O'Neal 5 points, all on the inside! What's wrong with you guys? Just because the road trip went well, you should take it lightly? They are a strong team, a super strong team! Our record is far inferior to theirs, and you remember this fact clearly for me! ”

"I shouldn't have let you rest, I should have locked you all up in the training ground as soon as I came back, and died on the pitch if you didn't practice defense!"

Cheeks reprimanded the players and kept them all bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Indeed, after the end of the road trip, the 76ers, whose record has improved, have a little slack.

This slackness is a temporary relief and relaxation for the players, but for the team, it is tantamount to a disaster.

"Yes, we won the last two games of the trip, but it was a fluke to win!" Cheeks continued: "It was a great game against the Pistons, you all played well, and I rewarded you for having fun at night. ”

"As a result, what did you give me in return? Fiasco! Lost to the Raptors, and it was an undisputed fiasco! ”

Cheeks's words were heavy, but they were not wrong, in the game against the Raptors, due to continuous night revelry, the team was in a poor mental state, and was beaten by the king of the north, and left Toronto in disgrace.

In the next two games, although the team improved, there was a certain fluke factor in both victories, which made the team's spirit begin to fade again.

After the game against the Pistons, in the three games, Chen Mu, as the sixth person of the team, also played poorly, and his offensive touch came and went.

"The Chinese kid hits the rookie wall."

This was the headline that was issued by many media outlets after the game.

"Chen, play!"

Throughout the timeout, Cheeks was almost always venting his frustration, and in the academy coach's mind, real tactical training should be done subtly on weekdays, rather than being crammed on the sidelines.

Cheeks has always had a poor coaching record, but seriousness is something that all the players who have worked with him agree on.

In fact, before this game, Cheeks had already handed over thick tactical instructions and points to the whole team. But how many people have read this thick dozen materials?

"Chen, if this game is still sparse, let me go back to the end of the bench and calm down!"

Before going on the court, Cheeks glared at Chen Mu and said, "Because of your offense and rebounding, I have always tolerated your poor performance on the defensive end. But there is a limit to this patience, if you let other insiders in the league easily blow up, you won't have to play for the next month! ”

Chen Mu knew that Cheeks was angry, and his help to the team's offense had actually more or less offset, or even surpassed, his disadvantage on the defensive end.

Only this time, the head coach was full of anger and said something a little too harsh.

"I know."

Chen Mu let out a long breath, raised his eyes to look at Wade, who was walking slowly on the other side of the court, and said with a purse of the corners of his mouth: "I will work hard......!" ”

The game continues.

"The Chinese kid came on the pitch, well, I have to say, this player really gave us a lot of surprises. However, his contribution on the defensive end is really lackluster, especially in the away game against the Raptors, and he was won by the opposite Bosh with a super performance of 30+10. Just now our staff also heard that Coach Cheeks has given a death order to the Chinese kid and must defend well. ”

The commentator frowned slightly: "It's just that I doubt how much time this thin body can support under the double impact of the big shark and the flash." ”

The 76ers possessed the ball, Iverson controlled the ball and advanced, and sent the ball to the interior first as always.

After Chen Mu received the ball, a huge figure behind him approached, leaning in, and a stronger coercion than all the inside lines he had encountered before attacked, making Chen Mu stumble.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, stretched out his hand to Chen Mu, and then made a quick circle movement with both hands, and signaled to the technical table: "76ers No. 5, walking violation!" ”

"What ......?!!"

Chen Mu's eyes widened, Fang Cai himself was indeed pushed by that unparalleled power, and his steps were not very steady. However, he was very sure that the pivotal foot he had determined when receiving the ball was not significantly displaced, and most referees would not blow a small flaw under this kind of power confrontation.

"Chen, return to defense!"

Seeing that Chen Mu couldn't help arguing with the referee, Iguodala hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and patted Chen Mu's head and said, "If you blow it, you will blow it, just defend it well!" ”

"I ...... Alas! ”

Chen Mu shook his head helplessly, he was blown for a violation when he touched the ball for the first time on the court, which still made him unwilling.

"Whoosh"

Just before Chen Mu came back to his senses, the Heat team had already sent out the baseline ball, and Chen Mu only felt that a black shadow flashed in front of him.

The shadow was so fast as lightning that even Iverson, who had the fastest reaction in the team, didn't have time to turn around and chase after him, and he had already rushed into the heart of the 76ers, and under the defense of Iguodala and Webber, a juggling shot, the basketball went into the frame at the same time, and the referee blew the whistle again.

"The goal is valid, the 76ers have a defensive foul No. 4, and a free throw is added!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wow! ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

Wade got up from the floor, his trademark grim look on his face, reached out to wipe his sweat, and looked up at the scoreboard.

"Chen! Are you sleepwalking?!! What about delay? Delay ?!! ”

Cheeks was almost mad, and shouted angrily, even the home fans shook their heads, just this goal, Chen Mu did not delay in time, and it was the source of the entire defense line being penetrated in an instant.

"Huh"

Seeing Wade's steady hit and punishment, the distractions in Chen Mu's original heart were instantly thrown out of the clouds, and there was only one thought left in his mind:

"This lightning, it's time to stop ......!"
