Despite Garnett's defense, he was able to score consecutive goals, and Takemi's attacking ability attracted the attention of everyone off the field after he successfully scored again.

If in yesterday's practice match, people were able to use Rydell's height not as good as martial arts to tell themselves that this high school student was not good enough, then in today's practice match, the same reason can no longer be used.

Although Garnett is a newcomer who has just entered the Timberwolves, no one will underestimate Garnett's talent.

And the reason why the Timberwolves chose Garnett is not entirely because Garnett's offensive ability and his physical talent attract them, the most important thing is Garnett's defensive attitude and defensive ability on the court, which is why the Timberwolves management decided to choose Garnett with a high pick in this year's draft.

In today's era, the vast majority of people are convinced of a truth, that is, defense can bring victory to the team!

In this context, Garnett's all-round attributes will become so dazzling.

But it is precisely because Garnett's excellence on the defensive end that the value of Martial Arts as a player can be highlighted.

A scorer, a scorer who can ignore this level of defense, is something that all teams want. There's nothing wrong with defending to bring victory to the team, and the super scorer who can break through the enemy's defense can also bring victory to the team!

At this moment, everyone is imagining in their minds what kind of combat effectiveness they can show when the two players of Takedo and Garnett are on the same team at the same time.

"This child's one-on-one ability to tackle tough problems is beyond doubt."

"Regardless of his ability in other areas, the ability he has shown at this stage alone is already very outstanding."

"Philip, where did you find such a 'baby'?"

On the sidelines, team owner Glenn Taylor looked quite fond of martial arts, and asked Philip Saunders, who was sitting not far away.

"I met at ABCD training camp, and before I came to the team, I went there and coached for a while."

"This kid was seen in that training camp."

"It's very good, against those elite high school students from all over the United States, he can easily hit 30+ points when he plays."

Faced with Glenn Taylor's inquiry, Philip Saunders replied seriously. In addition to the words, there is also the meaning of protecting martial arts, planning to endorse martial arts, and talking about some of the performances of martial arts in the training camp.

"ABCD Bootcamp? That Adi made a nameless training camp. ”

"You can score 30+ points casually on the field. This kid must have attracted a lot of attention. ”

Glenn Taylor heard that Wu Dao had performed in the ABCD training camp, his face sank slightly, and he said with some hesitation.

Hearing Glenn Taylor's words, Philip Saunders also knew his boss's concerns, and the reputation of young players is greater, and there are naturally more competitors. Glenn Taylor isn't worried that the cost of getting martial arts will be greater, he just thinks that if a team takes a fancy to this kid, their Timberwolves may not get it.

From Glenn Taylor's point of view, a player like Wu Dao is definitely a future star, and for a weak team like the Timberwolves without a superstar, they can become the cornerstone of the team and impact the playoffs!

By the way, Glenn Taylor has low goals for the team right now, although he also thought about the Timberwolves winning the championship in his dreams, but the reality told him not to be too ambitious, first, to make the playoffs first

So Glenn Taylor's goal is also close and realistic, first of all, to advance to the playoffs.

"I don't think I need to worry too much about this at the moment, I also have some channels in the industry, although martial arts is the leading player at Oak Hill High School."

"But no NBA team has thought anything about him so far."

"Not to mention the NBA team, even the NCAA colleges, few colleges have invited him to tryout."

"He will be a senior in high school at the beginning of this year, and normally speaking, the university will have to make a move a long time ago."

"There is no big movement now, so it can be seen that his fame is likely to only spread in a small area!"

Philip Saunders said with a smile, seemingly quite satisfied with the fact that martial arts were not being paid attention to.

"Huh? Why is that? Didn't you say that he was able to play an average of 30+ per game in ABCD training camp? A player of this level doesn't have the team to pay attention to? ”

Kevin McHale, the team's executive vice president, interjected with some bewilderment, had no way of understanding why such a player would go unnoticed. It's a bit outrageous to say that there is no NBA team to pay attention to, after all, it's just high school students, but there is no NCAA team to pay attention.

"It's not very clear."

"But in training camp, I didn't put him in the first team."

"You know, scouts only look at one team!"

Philip Saunders folded his hands and looked into the middle of the field.

At this time, the green team has completed the round of offense, and it is still the team's big man Tom Gugliotta who leads the attack, he called a block on the left side of the court, and then Mark Davis, who broke through easily through the block, entered the interior line, and sent the ball to the basket after a tough confrontation layup.

This buddy's ability to control the ball is so-so in the eyes of Wu Dao, and the speed of breaking through is also so-so.

But highlight a firm!

His breakthrough will give people a solid feeling, and the physical confrontation he gives after hitting the inside line is also very strong, and the physical posture after the physical confrontation is also quite good, and the hand shape is very good.

It gives a very clumsy, but very stable feeling.

"It should be a big forward-like role."

"Strictly speaking, his technical characteristics should not be that of a small forward with the ball."

After watching Tom Gugliotta's two attacks, Takemichi had a general impression of the player.

In fact, it is true that as Takemichi said, in the Timberwolves team, there is no small forward with the ball in the strict sense.

Because of the existence of the starter Ryder, the person responsible for the task of holding the ball is actually a subposition.

People like Tom Gugliotta and Garnett have good defense and have a good mid-range shot, but the position is more ambiguous.

However, such a team composition is not reasonable, because the whole team does not have a relatively stable low-post scorer, which is a very fatal weakness for the team of this era.

You say starting center Kristen Leitner? This buddy's low-post scoring ability can only be said to be there, but to say stable? That's really a little bit close.

Against tougher opponents, Kristen Leitner likes to get off the basket and shoot hard, and he averaged 6.5 shots per game in the '95-96 season.

As for the ball-holding division, Ryder has 7.5 shots

In fact, in the entire Timberwolves team, "iron-blooded shooting" is the "label" of almost every player, regardless of inside or outside

After roughly figuring out Tom Gugliotta's attacking habits, Takedo planned to surprise the opponent if the opponent attacked again.

But before that, he has to surprise Garnett!

White defender Jeromy Allen advanced with the ball, and Bumichi soon entered the front court with his teammates. Obviously, none of the players on the white team wanted to see Martial Arts perform alone.

After all, the team's management is watching from the sidelines, if you don't perform well at this time, when will you behave well?

But the players on the Green team are obviously also playing chicken blood, and the defense is very tight.

Jeromy Allen, who was holding the ball, couldn't see any of his teammates showing a good pass opportunity, and turned his head slightly, and his eyes met the martial arts who was now leaning on Garnett with his back and one foot on the three-point line to raise his hand towards him.

Do you think you don't see it?

Obviously no.

Don't pass it on?

In the face of teammates who feel really hot, not giving the ball seems to be a bit unreasonable, and it does not conform to the "decision" of a defender.

"If he scores, the management will be able to see me, probably" With such a strange thought in his heart, Jeromy Allen finally chose to pass the ball to Budo.

But this time, Garnett didn't mean to continue to sit still, his chest was against Takemi's back, and at the moment when Jeromy Allen came out of the ball, he directly wanted to bypass Takemichi to break the ball.

It's just that the martial arts reaction that felt the power on his side was also very fast, and he took a direct step and stuck Garnett, and then stretched out his hand and grabbed the ball in his hand.

The moment the basketball started, Wu Dao dropped the ball and turned around to face the frame directly, an acceleration moment was parallel to Garnett's body, and the left-handed ball protector was directly against Garnett's waist, making Garnett unable to turn around and chase for the first time.

The speed of the martial arts that broke through smoothly did not weaken, and in the blink of an eye, he directly invaded the basket, grabbed the basketball and jumped up.

Andrew Long, who was standing under the basket, only glanced sideways at Kristen Leitner's position slightly, and when he turned his head again, he saw that Wu Dao had grabbed the basketball and flew in front of him at some point.

Andrew Lang barely had time to raise his arms before his body was violently impacted.

"Bang dang!"

Takeshi grabbed the ball with one hand, dunked the ball into the basket, and slammed his body directly into Andrew Long's body, knocking him back several steps.

Releasing the basket and landing quickly, Wu Dao glanced at Andrew Long, who was still holding his hands high, and took two steps back before turning around and starting to defend himself.

And off the court, everyone in the Timberwolves management who saw the martial arts was already wide open in shock.

Glenn Taylor punched himself in the thigh, and immediately said to Kevin McHale and Philip Saunders next to him:

"You guys give me a way, no matter what, I'm going to see this kid in the Timberwolves jersey and appear in the target center!"

"Minnesota fans, they're going to love players like that!"

The young man who can only shoot, Glenn Taylor likes, but can still restrain himself. But with excellent outside projection ability, and such a strong physical talent, Glenn Taylor can't restrain himself!

He's the owner of the team, but he's also a fan, and he knows very well what a young man like Wudao will bring to the Timberwolves.

Small cities, don't they deserve to have their own superstars?!

Hearing Glenn Taylor's words, Kevin McHale and Philip Saunders looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

I'm afraid they're going to have to get busy, and they have to go to the draft before the martial arts. No, before the fame of martial arts spreads throughout the United States, you can save up enough chips in your hands!

Training matches are still going on in the middle of the stadium.

The Green team seemed to want to hit Tom Gugliotta, but when he broke through, Takemichi directly let go of his opponent and went up to give him a bag.

The sudden appearance of Takeshi caused Tom Gugliotta to make a mistake and the pass was inaccurate, allowing Jeromy Allen to complete the tackle.

At the same time that Aaron completed the steal, Wu Dao had also taken the lead and quickly entered the opponent's half zone.

With Garnett alone chasing after the frontcourt, Jeromy Allen seemed to be playing with confidence, playing tricks in the advance, and after a slow-paced dribble fake-pass, Jeromy Allen grabbed the ball and made a layup himself.

Garnett recognized Jeromy Allen's own attack and jumped directly to block, but Jeromy Allen collected the ball after Garnett's jump and passed it sideways to the follow-up martial arts.

The martial arts crotch who took the ball took a step and grabbed the ball directly with both hands, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands. The huge force made the entire arena filled with the movement of slam dunk at this moment.

After landing, Takedo looked at Jeromy Allen and tacitly celebrated with the black defender.

Takemichi's sudden help defense disrupted the Green team's otherwise decent offensive rhythm, and when the Green team counterattacked, Garnett's shot was inaccurate, and the rebound was picked up by Kristen Leitner.

And Kristen Leitner, who took the rebound, did not go to guard Jeromy Allen, but threw the ball to Takemichi, who was advancing.

Martial arts, who take the ball in the backcourt, also have no intention of playing the ball.

Quickly crossed the halfway line with the ball and approached the three-point line again.

This time, Wu Dao seemed to have finally seen the presence of his teammates, and after slowing down and waiting for his teammates to settle down, when Garnett came up on defense, he pointed to Garnett's left rear and signaled to his teammates.

Kristen Leitner, who was just about to enter the inside line, realized that she was about to step forward, and saw that the martial arts had already broken through.

The reason is also very simple, because Garnett was made a doppelganger by the gesture of the martial arts, he just looked sideways slightly to see if there was anyone behind him to block and dismantle the kung fu, and the martial arts had already accelerated to break through.

Martial Arts' figure directly crossed Garnett and cut along the middle towards the inside line, Garnett wanted to chase, but just when he chased near the free throw line, he saw Martial Arts make a sudden stop and jump directly in the middle distance.

The very smooth pull-up jump shot made Garnett, who lost the lead, unable to defend at all.

"Whew!!"

The basketball fell directly into the net without any accidents, and with the sound of a soft sound, the eyes of the defenders in the court changed when they looked at Martial Arts.

Break through sharply and repeatedly pass through Garnett.

But what's going on with this success rate?!

"This guy. Is it really a high school student?! ”

"How so!"

Tom Gugliotta murmured in disbelief, and then shouted at Garnett:

"Hey!"

"That first-year rookie!"

"Put the defense under pressure! Let's fight physically! ”
