Chapter 527: First Brother Enters, New Opponent!

The Timberwolves' practice game took everyone by surprise in the second half.

The bench players thought that the white team, who played with high school students, would be cleanly cleaned up by the team led by the green, Rydell, and Garnett.

But what everyone didn't expect was that the sophomore who came to the tryout actually blew up Ryder at both offensive and defensive ends.

Early in the second half, Budo created a solo opportunity for himself through a tough and successful defense. After scoring a few goals in a row, his team-mates built up their initial trust in him.

And then after scoring consecutive goals against Ryder's defense, he established his status as a team in this practice match in one fell swoop.

There is no doubt that Wu Dao, who scored in double figures in just a few minutes, has become the top scorer for this white team.

After realizing the explosive rise of martial arts, several teammates did not skimp at all, and began to revolve around martial arts, frequently making balls for martial arts.

At this time, some people may ask, there are two second-round shows in the white team this year, are they willing to succumb to the high school student of martial arts, and make balls for martial arts instead of performing themselves?

The answer is willingly.

Because a practice game is a practice game after all, and in the end, Wu Dao is just a sophomore in high school, and it doesn't pose any threat to players who have already entered the NBA team.

And for them, it is a good thing to use the hand of Martial Arts, a high school student, to ravage Ryder well.

The NBA games are fixed every year, with 82 regular season games, and if they don't make the playoffs, these games are the only stage for players to express themselves.

If they don't get a chance to play on the NBA stage, they may face a move to the minor leagues, and then they will either be traded or laid off.

But where is it so easy to get on the pitch? They're both second-round picks, and the coach doesn't treat them like Garnett did, making sure they get playing time.

Rookies like them, at most, are on the court to feel the atmosphere when the game goes into garbage time.

Although Ryder was beaten by martial arts, he is still an indispensable starter for the Timberwolves.

The rookies in the same position want to play, and they can only expect Ryder to be beaten by the martial arts, and the first substitute is better to suffer another major injury.

At that time, they rookies may be able to get a chance to play. If the ability is strong enough, it is not impossible to take this opportunity to establish the status of the team in one fell swoop and become a starter.

Although this is the most ideal state, it does not prevent the rookies from looking forward to it.

Therefore, they can be said to do their best to help the martial arts!

Teammates are willing to pass the ball, which is enough for Martial Arts, and now they also take the initiative to help block and dismantle, and Martial Arts has not refused again.

He has proven his ability to be above Ryder, of course he will not refuse the blocking and dismantling of his teammates, and he can play with less effort, so why not make good use of it?

Kristen Leitner is a well-balanced center, and although his blocking ability is not much of a cow, it is enough.

After having his high-level blocking, Wudao played more freely, and made some feints or breakthroughs by blocking and dismantling, and he played very smoothly.

By the end of the third quarter, Takemichi's individual score had risen to 24 points. The mid-range hit rate of martial arts with unlimited firing rights is also quite high.

There are players on the sidelines who silently remember the number of shots of Martial Arts, and found that Martial Arts has been 7 of 9 and 1 of 1 three-pointers.

Coupled with some free throws, Wudao's scoring statistics are several times higher than others.

Ryder felt very powerless in the face of Martial Arts, his defensive movements were very large, and his aggression was also very strong, but Martial Arts was not affected by his defense at all, and his offensive efficiency remained at a terrifying level.

Ryder keeps making small moves when defending, but the high school kid is scrappy and doesn't miss his small moves on the offensive end. Ryder could clearly feel that the other party was not only guarding against his own feet, but also used his body to strengthen his other small movements, without the slightest fear.

The elbow strikes that others were afraid of, but Wu Dao didn't pay attention to them at all. The power of Rydell's small movements, when it fell on him, only made Martial Dao feel a little painful.

The martial arts in the stadium are unstoppable.

Garnett obviously sensed that Ryder was not an opponent of Martial Arts, and he knew more about this type of player than Ryddle, because he himself was somewhat similar to Martial Arts' playing style.

With such a huge gap in height, arm span, and bounce, it is impossible for Ryder to defend at this level to be able to defend against martial arts.

Garnett has faith in himself, and he feels that only someone like him can fight against a player like Martial Arts.

Merely.

Ryder is a bit of a boss now, and he will definitely not give up the right to defend martial arts.

Based on this situation, Garnett can only try to make up for it on the offensive end, but his thinking is still too simple, in Garnett's mind, as long as the team gives him the ball as much as possible, he can help the team make the ball run smoothly.

Their Green team's offensive efficiency will definitely not be bad.

Of course, his teammates did exactly that, trying to avoid giving Ryder this point when attacking.

But Ryder can't stay without receiving the ball all the time, and when he can't get the ball, he will even steal his teammates to attack on his own.

The result, of course, is also very unsatisfactory

The white team soon had an absolute advantage.

In the first quarter, he made crazy shots and scored 24 points, and in the final quarter, Wudao still maintained an efficient offense, scoring 21 points in a single quarter.

He led the team to a 95-77 victory over the Green team and won the game.

After a match, everyone's eyes on the sidelines changed when they looked at Martial Arts, and young Mark Davis and Jeromy Allen enthusiastically gathered around Martial Arts, saying words of praise as they walked towards the court.

The losing Green Team and others stood on the field, and for a moment it seemed that there was no way to accept the fact that they were blown up by a high school student.

Garnett stood in the middle of the field, panting, his body already wet with sweat, but there was no tiredness on his face.

Looking at Wu Dao, who was surrounded and walked in front of Manager Philip Saunders and happily communicated with the other party, his eyes showed complicated emotions.

In this game, he entered the Timberwolves with the 5th pick in the first round after graduating from high school, and scored 17 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks in the game.

But in front of the 45 points of that half of the martial arts, the light dimmed.

No one who can enter the NBA is stupid, and seeing the performance of Wudo today, everyone realizes that this player will definitely be able to become a superstar-level player in the future.

You must know that the opponent facing Wudao is not a cat or a dog, but the best score of their team, Ryder.

Ryder's ability on the defensive end is still recognized by most people, and in the entire NBA, of course there are people who can completely blow him up, but it is really impossible to find someone who can explode like martial arts.

"Wu Dao, today's game is very good, and in the next few days, you can also practice with the team."

"Playing a practice match of this caliber is also a rare experience for you."

On the side of the court, Philip Saunders patted Wu Dao's shoulder affectionately and said with a smile. He is also very surprised now, although he was very optimistic about martial arts when he was in the training camp, but in the training camp, martial arts did not show such a terrifying ability to score points.

How so?

The martial arts in the training camp are obviously a lot more subtle, as if to be able to leave a "team" impression on other coaches, and the martial arts will not blindly play by themselves in the handling of some balls.

But in today's practice game, Wu Dao seems to be determined to kill Ryder, and after the basketball is given to him, it will not be passed out at all.

The whole person entered the lone wolf mode of slamming, and many of the offensive options of the ball seemed to Philip Saunders to be reluctant.

But this little flaw, under the terrifying data of 45 points in the half of the martial arts, can no longer be called a flaw.

If in training camp, Philip Saunders only saw Martial Arts as a player with potential and talent.

So after today's practice game, let Philip Saunders confirm that martial arts will definitely cause an earthquake after entering the NBA.

The player in front of him has the potential to be a real superstar.

Philip Saunders was very satisfied with the performance of martial arts today, of course, but he was also full of worries about whether he would be able to obtain martial arts in the future.

It's good to be good at martial arts, but it's definitely going to attract the attention of other teams.

Martial arts is already at the top of ESPN's list of high school students in the United States, although due to some well-known relationships, martial arts has not won those "national best5", "Mr. Basketball" and other awards, but Philip Saunders knows that if the martial arts senior maintains such momentum, it will definitely attract people's attention.

Looking at the martial arts in front of him, Philip Saunders couldn't help but rub his hands, and after chatting with the martial arts in a few words, he hurriedly left the arena.

The Timberwolves' training, of course, will not end with a practice game, which is just the beginning for the players.

Coach Bill gave the players a break and then started arranging other training sessions.

However, at this time, Ryder had a moth, he did not participate in the team's next training, and left the stadium without saying a word, skipping training directly.

Although several of Ryder's better players tried to hold Ryder, it didn't help, and Ryder still left the arena.

Wu Dao just glanced at Ryder who was leaving, turned his head and forgot about this person completely.

There is no need to memorize the names of the defeated generals!

After the practice match, Takemichi participated in the Timberwolves' team practice. Although the Timberwolves are the belly of the fish in the NBA, the team's training still opened the eyes of martial arts.

After the group's running practice, the assistant coaches on the sidelines entered the pitch and began to give the players what they called "individual coaching". Of course, those who have these benefits are the backbone of the team, including Garnett.

As for the second-round pick that was new to the team this year, the coaches just assigned a training assignment and went to Garnett and the others to give one-on-one targeted guidance.

Martial arts is also fortunate to take a "physical fitness class", the trainer after watching the performance of martial arts on the court, feel that martial arts talent conditions are really good, and has been training very well, the advice to martial arts is to let him exercise small muscle groups, strengthen the ability to control the body.

For the muscle gain of martial arts, the advice of the Timberwolves trainer is to let the martial arts control the weight of the whole person within 105kg, and it is enough to maintain the current weight.

In this regard, their advice to Martial Arts is very different from the advice given by the trainers in the ABCD training camp some time ago.

Trainers at ABCD training camps recommend martial arts to build muscle and strengthen dominance in the low post.

And the Timberwolves' trainers feel that gaining muscle will increase the risk of injury and keep the martial arts going.

Different trainers gave very different advice, which made Takeshi hesitate, and he didn't know who to listen to for a while.

After expressing his doubts, the Timberwolves' trainer was obviously stunned, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still suggested that Wudao let him keep the status quo.

In fact, the Timberwolves' trainers think about more things.

If Wu Dao is a black player, then he will not hesitate to suggest that Wu Dao gain muscle, with the physique of a black player and the ability to hang meat, according to Wu Dao's current height conditions, it is best to control the weight in the range of 105~110kg.

Even some talented players, such as Ah Tan, with a height of 206cm, can still maintain a considerable level of athleticism by controlling their weight at around 115kg.

As for the fat tiger kind, it is not in the scope of discussion, because his injury situation means that his physical talent is not enough to support him to hang so much meat.

Compared to the fat tiger, the big shark is the one who is very talented.

Hanging meat while maintaining excellent athleticism without injury.

For players, weight has a direct impact on athleticism and injury risk, and it is very important to choose a balance between them.

For example, Da Yao's weight gain in order to enhance his dominance is a case of failure in the eyes of martial arts, not to mention the risk of injury, in fact, Da Yao's dominance before not gaining weight is very strong, and the low power can't fight against O'Neill can't be regarded as a shortcoming at all.

In fact, as long as Houston matches Da Yao with a meat shield-type power forward who can catch the ball and dunk violently, it will be okay to disgust O'Neal on the side.

With Yao Ming's ability to respond, pass and shoot from mid-range, he can pull O'Neal out for military training.

On the defensive end, as long as the meat shield power forward goes up to give two fouls when O'Neal is most comfortable playing, and breaks the rhythm.

What O'Neal has to do in defense is not how to defend him when he has the ball in the low post, but how not to let him get the ball in the low post. Even if he gets the ball, he doesn't let him play comfortably, which is the most important thing.

It's too stupid to go head-to-head with the other party in the field that the other party is good at, and play low-level one-on-one, in the eyes of martial arts.

Just like Ryder in this game, he is obviously a subtile, and he wants to save face, and he comes to target the martial arts of his own head, isn't this asking for his own hardship.

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Dao decided to listen to the advice of the Timberwolves trainer for the time being and control his weight at around 105kg.

He's still young, there's still a long way to go, and there's time to gain muscle, but if he gets injured, he's going to have a GG career.

For the martial arts at this stage, it is better to be safe.

The next day, the Timberwolves were ready for a simple practice game before the start of training.

In today's training, Ryder was absent, but the Timberwolves' "real" brother, forward Tom Gugliotta, joined the training.

The player assignment was the same as yesterday, and Takemi, a high school student, was fortunate enough to be able to join the training at the beginning of the tournament today.

In the green team, the vacancy for Ryder became Tom Gugliotta. It's just that he didn't play against the martial arts, but went to the inside line to act as a big forward, and the opponent of the martial arts was replaced by Garnett.

"Martial arts classmates, hello."

"My name is Kevin Garnett."

"I just graduated from high school this year, and I'm barely a high school student."

"Today, I'm going to be your opponent."
