Chapter 600: Martial Arts Everyone!
With the ball scored by Wudao 3+1, the scores of the Timberwolves and Jazz teams also came to the same starting line.
As the third quarter of the game came to an end, the atmosphere in the arena also became extremely enthusiastic.
The Jazz's lead was erased by the Timberwolves, and the pressure on the players was also very high, and because of the departure of Brian Russell, the Jazz's players' perception of the "culprit" of martial arts has also dropped significantly.
Karl Malone had the idea of avenging his teammates, because Brian Russell's departure was so embarrassing that it was not just Brian Russell's face that was disgraced.
Even the whole team with them was disgraced.
When have they ever suffered such a loss? For a long time, they have only trained other teams, and when will it be their turn to bully them.
What's more, the Timberwolves are just a team with no name, and those players are all newcomers and rookies, and Tom, the biggest name, is just a stinky fish and rotten shrimp in the eyes of Malone.
If he is ridden by such a team, how will he Carl Malone gain a foothold in the alliance in the future?
And his old opponent Michael Jordan was also present in today's game, and he didn't want to make such a foreign appearance in front of Jordan.
In that first year, Carl Malone will never allow the Timberwolves' first year to continue to go crazy!
In the middle of the court, the offense and defense alternated, and the Jazz won the ball.
As Howard Easley quickly dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, Karl Malone also quickly ran out of the interior to cover his teammates.
It's just that the target of his cover is not Howard Easley, who is holding the ball near the top of the arc, but Adam Kife, who is in front of Budo.
Garnett noticed that the opponent was lifting to cover, and quickly stepped up to keep up without thinking about it, his footsteps moved quickly, even if he chased out to defend, there was no problem at all, whether it was changing the opponent's No. 3 position or continuing to mark Carl Malone, with Garnett's footsteps, it would not cause too much dislocation.
After Karl Malone settled, Adam Kiffe quickly cut off the ball.
At the same time, Howard Easley, who was at the top of the arc, only found the right opportunity and quickly sent the ball towards his teammate who cut in.
On the Timberwolves' side, Wu Dao and Garnett also quickly changed defenses tacitly, and Garnett, who was originally chasing Malone, changed his direction and rushed directly to Adam Keefe.
At the same time, Malone also invaded the middle area towards the paint area after the pick-and-roll, and Howard Easley at the top of the arc went to the left corner position after passing the ball, making room for his teammates to show their skills.
The Jazz's offensive rotation is quite good, and in the blink of an eye, Malone formed a one-to-one opportunity with Wu Dao in the high post at the top of the arc.
Adam Kiefe, who received the ball, was unable to directly dribble the ball to the inside under Garnett's defense, but slowly approached the baseline with the ball under Garnett's pressure.
Adam Keefey saw that there was no offensive space, and jumped directly with the ball to shoot at a 0-degree angle, but Garnett's follow-up was too good, and at the moment when Adam Keefey jumped, Garnett also quickly reached out to block it, blocking Adam Keefe's sight.
A moment before the shooting point, Adam Kiffey saw Ma Long, who was leaning sideways against Wu Dao at the top of the arc at this time, reaching out for the ball, his body quickly twisted in the air, and he took the ball with both hands and smashed it in the direction of Ma Long.
Powerful passes.
Adam Kife gave it a little high, but Ma Long, who was sideways against the martial arts, still jumped up and took the ball in his hand.
It's just that where Malone received the basketball, it was already close to the three-point line.
Not.
For Malone, it's a poor catch-and-catch position.
He has some ability to dribble and attack, but it's not his best offensive defense.
O'Neal also has a shoulder-to-shoulder step-back jumper.
But obviously, these skills are not the survival skills of the big inside line in this era.
What's more, this defender of the martial arts is also quite outstanding!
Wu Dao's height is a little taller than Ma Long, but the difference of a few centimeters doesn't feel very good when he is on the court.
And Wu Dao's weight is nearly 20 pounds smaller than Carl Malone, that is, 10kg, and this weight gap is very useful when it is on the court. And in Ma Long's extra 20 pounds of weight, the proportion of muscle is also quite large.
The opponents of Budo in this match, whether it is 102kg Brian Russell or 104kg Adam Kiffey, are obviously not the same as Ma Long with 116kg.
Starting with the basketball, Ma Long turned sideways to the basket, grabbed the ball with both hands, his waist was a little straight, and he lowered his eyes to look at the martial arts in front of him, without too much expression on his face.
Ma Long's attitude of holding the ball has a feeling of being held high and high.
He's used to playing inside, and suddenly receiving the ball in this position is obviously not very comfortable.
Wu Dao was calm, put one hand on Ma Long's waist, raised his head and looked at the basketball in Ma Long's hand, and there was a defensive distance of nearly 30cm between him and Ma Long.
Wu Dao is not worried that Malone will shoot three-pointers in this position at all, and the three-point shot is obviously different from Ma Long's painting style. What he was wary of was only Ma Long's breakthrough.
"Smack!"
Soon, Ma Long exploded the ball, and at the same time, Ma Long's body also leaned on Wu Dao's body, and the huge power actually directly took Wu Dao back a step.
“!!!”
This kind of power, Wu Dao has never been taught in the body of an outside player, Ma Long is about the same height as himself, and he is so much stronger than himself in terms of strength.
A little surprised in his heart, Wu Dao also took a quick step forward, clinging to Ma Long's body, and at the same time interfering with Ma Long's ball.
Yes, Malone has a lot of strength, but he is always an inside player, no matter how good he dribbles, under high-intensity interference, it is impossible to easily change direction and dodge like a small guard.
If Malone can do this kind of thing, he still has a fart 4/5 position?!
"Smack!"
The second time the ball was back-hit, this time the strength was obviously a little different from the strength of the first time, and the martial arts interfered with Ma Long's defense, so that Ma Long had no way to play with all his strength, and he needed to pay attention to the fact that the martial arts would suddenly go around and steal.
And the strength of the other party this time, Wu Dao completely withstood it, he lowered his center of gravity, making his next game extremely stable, just half a step back, and ate all of Ma Long's strength.
The other members of the Timberwolves didn't mean to come up to help at this moment, and they all guarded their opposing players, but their attention was on Wu Dao and Ma Long.
If Wu Dao "executes" Ma Long here, the situation will be completely reversed.
After two consecutive back hits, Ma Long had just entered the three-point line, and feeling the power coming from behind him, Ma Long no longer hesitated, and quickly accelerated to break through.
As soon as he moved, Wu Dao also quickly followed, rubbing one hand on Ma Long's waist and quickly chasing Ma Long. His speed was faster than that of Ma Long, and when he was chasing, he saw Ma Long's intention to drop the ball and quickly made a steal.
And at this moment, Ma Long also noticed Wu Dao's movements when he was close to the free throw line extension line, and quickly grabbed the basketball with both hands, but Wu Dao's hand was too fast, and it cut directly on Ma Long's basketball.
Ma Long, who was obviously cut the ball, did not pause at all, maintaining the action of grabbing the ball with both hands, and suddenly pulled up to raise his hand to jump.
Although he didn't have the ball in his hand, the action was done in one go.
At the same time, his elbow was also on the jumper, and he inadvertently slammed into Martial Arts' chin.
Wu Dao didn't even realize what was happening, and the moment his elbow hit, he only felt his brain dazed, and then he fell straight backwards and lay directly on the floor.
Ma Long's elbow strike, Wu Dao was hit squarely.
"Beep-"
Not long after the end of the martial arts, a sharp and rapid whistle sounded, and the referee was already aware of the bad thing when he saw this scene, and when the whistle sounded, he quickly rushed into the court.
The Timberwolves team members saw that Wu Dao was actually knocked to the ground by an elbow, and after a short period of stunnedness, they were ready to rush up to surround Ma Long, but they were stopped by the referees who rushed to the ground.
And after Ma Long overturned the martial arts with one elbow, Ma Long, who heard the referee's whistle, also quickly raised his hand and looked at the martial arts on the ground with an apologetic expression.
Not.
An ordinary offensive foul.
The referee's decision is "impartial", and a seasoned player like Malone will not do something "irrational" like some players.
Even if everyone knows that Ma Long did it on purpose, but you must say that Ma Long's actions are aimed at people? That's actually a lot of space.
This is also the reason why the referee dares to make such a penalty, because this kind of "can be like this or that" penalty is completely determined by the referee's mood.
"Wu Dao, are you okay?"
Garnett originally wanted to find trouble with Ma Long, but the referee reacted quickly, and he could only quickly walk to Wu Dao's side and shout.
Wu Dao didn't get up, and Garnett didn't dare to get started.
At the same time, the other Timberwolves players also surrounded one after another, all looking at Wu Dao with a concerned face.
It was very accurate just now, and it was a chin again, with Ma Long's strength, I'm afraid I have already knocked out the martial arts?
The same thing is not uncommon in Malone's years in the NBA.
Some of his most famous "brilliant achievements" of the 20th century included hand-to-hand combat with Rodman, an elbow down on Admiral Robinson and a flying kick to Tim Duncan.
Spurs are the "real" sufferers.
Wu Dao, who fell to the ground, was now buzzing in his brain, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while, and he didn't know how long it took for Wu Dao to slowly open his eyes, his gaze was focused, and then he sat on the floor, bending his knees slightly to return to his senses.
There was no strong pain in his jaw, and he was okay with it, but his head was a little dizzy, and the sky was spinning, and the feeling was like what he felt after fifty turns in place.
"it!"
“WTF??”
The Timberwolves and Jazz players confronted each other, and a few seconds after Takeshi was put down, the players actually saw Takemichi sit up on the floor on his own.
Chris Kyle, Mitchell and others, who rushed into the court, couldn't help but exclaim when they saw this scene.
They were on the sidelines, looking at it really, the elbow of the martial arts was sturdy, Ma Long's iron elbows, they had more or less counted the power, I thought that the martial arts were going to be "reimbursed", but I didn't expect the martial arts to do it themselves at this time!
Ma Long, who was surrounded by his teammates, also looked at Wu Dao who was sitting on the ground for a while, and his eyes were full of astonishment.
How awesome he himself is, he knows very well.
You can't put down a first-grader this time?!
The noisy sound came into Wu Dao's ears, and after sitting quietly for a while, Wu Dao felt obviously much better, raised his head, looked at his teammates around him, and said:
"I'm fine!"
As he spoke, Wu Dao was already holding the ground with one hand and slowly stood up.
“!!!”
Seeing that Wu Dao actually stood up, Garnett was also stunned for a while.
"Hey, can you rest for a while?"
Garnett subconsciously wanted to help Martial Dao, but Martial Dao shook his arm lightly and said coldly:
"What are you resting for?"
"Keep playing."
As he spoke, Wu Dao raised his head and looked at Ma Long.
In just a few seconds, his brain had recovered from the chaos and dizziness just now, he reached out and touched his chin, feeling the pain coming from his chin, Wu Dao pursed his lips and muttered:
"Is that all?"
The members of the Jazz and the Timberwolves all looked at Wu Dao with a look of astonishment at this time, and Ma Long looked at Wu Dao's eyes, and when he heard Wu Dao's words, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes.
The referees also looked at the yellow man who stood up by himself after taking an elbow from Ma Long, and didn't know what to say for a while.
The Timberwolves' team doctor also entered the court at this time, and after quickly doing a simple physical examination of Wudao with a flashlight, he also walked back with a stunned face.
This "small riot" quickly subsided.
Unrelated personnel left the court, and the ball came to the side of the Timberwolves.
The spectators in the stands saw the game continue, saw that Wu Dao was still on the court, and even ran slowly towards the Jazz half, and the entire court fell into an eerie silence.
It wasn't until Marbury crossed the halfway line with the ball into the Jazz half that the Timberwolves fans finally reacted and shouted loudly.
Even the jazz on-site commentator kept shouting "Amazing!" ”
After Martial Arts entered the front court, Adam Kife, who was defending Martial Arts, inadvertently met Martial Arts' gaze, and couldn't help but take half a step back slightly, looking a little dazed.
After sensing that Marbury was holding the ball into the front court, Takeshi also quickly leaned to the side and reached out to ask for the ball.
The momentum of the Timberwolves was boosted by Takemi, and Marbury saw that Takemichi wanted the ball, and quickly gave the ball to Takemi.
The latter took the ball, and a rush directly cleared Adam Keefe, and after passing Adam Kife, Wu Dao rushed directly to the basket.
"I don't have a long memory!" Carl Malone saw the martial arts that rushed to the basket quickly, and he cursed in his heart, and went directly towards the martial arts to try to make up for the defense.
And seeing Ma Long coming up, Wu Dao had just crossed the free throw line, so he jumped directly with the ball, Ma Long was not afraid, he jumped up directly against Wu Dao, and slapped Wu Dao's basketball with one hand, he was already ready to plan, this time, even if he couldn't cover it, he would pull Wu Dao down from the air.
However, just as Ma Long approached in front of Wu Dao, Wu Dao's right foot bent, and he suddenly supported his knee and directly pressed it against Ma Long's body.
Ma Long's soaring body was stunned, and then he fell rapidly, and the moment he landed, he couldn't bear the huge power of the martial arts, and fell to the floor on his back.
"Bang!!"
After a knee hit Ma Long and flew away, Wu Dao's body paused slightly in mid-air, and then "riding a horse and archery" shot a shot.
The basketball hits the front of the board and falls directly into the basket.
However, at this time, no one watched the basketball that fell into the net at all, whether it was the audience or the players, their eyes fell on Ma Long, who fell to the ground with his chest covered.
Wu Dao landed, looked at Ma Long on the ground with cold eyes, and mocked in Chinese:
"Why do you think Lao Tzu is called martial arts?!"
