The 5v5 Open Tournament begins.

As soon as they came up, the reporters on the sidelines were shocked.

Black hair, yellow skin......

There were too many students just now, and they really didn't notice that there was actually a Chinese person here!

And, it's still the first debut!

It has been 1 month since the NBA 02 draft, but Yao Ming's popularity has not diminished at all, and various experts have predicted his prospects in his rookie season.

At this time, I saw a Chinese player in the AND1 training camp, and one of the reporters who was fooled reacted quickly, and immediately looked at Ben Wallace on the sidelines: This shouldn't be the surprise you said, right?

Sure enough, when he met their gaze, Ben Wallace had a confident smile on his face. Wave your hand at them and keep them focused on the game, as if to say:

Wait and see, the show is about to begin!

"Toot!"

The referee's whistle blew, and it was Woody and Perkins who jumped the ball in the middle circle.

At the moment of the whistle, Perkins didn't react, and Woody had already made a jump. This instantaneous reaction to the verdict caused a low cry on the sidelines.

Not only these reporters, but even these students were a little surprised.

They've never seen such a swift Woody.

To put it this way......

When he usually plays 5v5 training matches, he still stays?

Oh, my God!

What kind of monster is this!

The surprise of the journalists was also intuitive.

Because of the dumb guy standing across from Woody they know, the national "star high school student" Kendrick Perkins!

The ball went into the hands of Woody's teammates, and after holding the ball past half court, he made an unusually confident jumper.

The ball "clangs" out of the frame.

Under the basket, Woody and Perkins have huddled together.

In terms of strength, Perkins was not at a disadvantage, but in terms of instant explosiveness, the gap was a bit big, the ball flew directly above their heads, and Woody in the confrontation quickly got rid of it, and instantly exerted force under his feet, holding the ball in his arms with both hands.

And Perkins has just gained a foothold at this time.

"Kendrick should be a high school student known for protecting rebounds, right?" Seeing Perkins being so ravaged by Woody under the basket, a reporter asked his counterparts next to him uncertainly, and after receiving an affirmative answer, the look of surprise in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.

And when Woody's teammates missed the shot again, and Woody once again finished picking the board above Perkins' head, the reporters were not calm at all, and hurriedly lifted the hood with the camera to record Woody on the field.

What the hell is this sacred!

Perkins is not calm anymore, no, I am a Joker, you are Batman, it is not easy to kill me?

Or is it called "not easy"?

Perkins really feels like a clown right now.

In just a minute, Woody conquered the scene with his excellent presence. As Ben Wallace expected, Woody's first focus was on his explosive physical gifts.

If you look at it from the height of the NBA, Woody's body is definitely not the top one, but he is only 17 years old, and such physical quality is rare even in the United States, a "big basketball country".

The ravages continued, and Woody then surprised the reporters on the defensive end!

"He's switching positions to mark outside players?"

"Man, that's no ordinary outside player, he's Travis Outlaw, a four-star high school kid this year!"

"What?"

When he learned that the person who was guarded by Woody with a little incoherent dribbling was Otlow, the reporter was a little uneasy.

Although Outlaw is not known for attacking with the ball, he is a "four-star high school student", not a cat or a dog, so how can it not be surprising that Woody is like this.

You can fight against Perkins on the inside and grab rebounds like crazy, and you can have the upper hand against Outlaw on the outside......

A reporter who was more familiar with Ben Wallace had already stood next to Wallace: "Man, isn't this guy the next you?" ”

Ben Wallace relied on his excellent mobility and tenacious rebounding ability in the NBA, and finally won the "rebounding king" and "best defensive player award" last season.

Ben Wallace shook his head, "No, man, he's more talented than me, and I couldn't do it when I was 17!" ”

The game continued, and soon reporters also discovered that although this mysterious Chinese newcomer had a very outstanding performance in defense and rebounding, he was a little mediocre on the offensive end.

The 8 points scored so far have all been obtained by dunks or baskets!

He doesn't have the ability to attack with the ball or shoot from mid to long range.

Now their shock has disappeared a lot......

At the end of the game, Woody's team defeated Perkins and Ottlow's team 73-64.

Although the two of them were in the same group, there were three other AND1 guest players in Woody's group, and more importantly, Woody scored the most luxurious 15 points and 23 rebounds in the game.

Whether it is Perkins' 14 points and 8 rebounds, or Outlaw's 22 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, they are not as brilliant as him!

Towards the end of the game, Ben Wallace also threw a bombshell at all reporters: "Everything you have seen so far is the result of his training in this month......

It's all the result of his training in the past month......

This is......

What does it mean to be swollen?

Before some reporters could react, Ben Wallace proudly said, "Yes, this guy has only been playing basketball for a month!" ”

！！！

At this time, the shock of all reporters has once again risen to a "new" level!

In a month's time, he was able to beat Perkins on the inside and defend Oterlo on the outside, although such a guy still has obvious problems, such as a lack of offensive means, but if they want to describe it, it is only a two-word evaluation:

Talented!

So, when the game ended, all the reporters on the scene flocked to Woody, scrambling to ask the questions they wanted to know.

Woody was a little bewildered by their enthusiasm, and at a loss for what to do, he met Ben Wallace's gaze.

Ben Wallace's vicissitudes of life, with a smile of relief, shouted: "Enjoy this moment, boy, from now on, you will become famous!" This is your path to fame! ”

Woody, who was in a trance, looked at the reporters in front of him again.

Their expressions are so crazy, and the red light on the camera in their hands is also particularly conspicuous.

That's my ...... The road to fame?

The interview lasted about half an hour, and Woody had never been asked so many questions in such a short period of time by so many people in his life.

When the interview is over, the training camp is officially over.

Perkins was waiting for him, wanting to say goodbye to him.

"Dude, you're really fierce!"

After this game, Perkins was convinced, he knew very well that there was already a qualitative gap between himself and Woody, and in terms of Woody's talent, this gap may get bigger and bigger.

Although he would not give up, he had to admit that the person in front of him continued and reached heights beyond his reach.

"I want to see you all over the United States soon!"

"Thanks buddy, beating you will indeed make me more confident!" Woody laughed and high-fived him, "I beat one of the best high school students in the country!" ”

"Less, you bastard!" Perkins scolded with a smile, if Woody had said this before this game, he would have believed it, and now after this game, he knows that Woody was just saying polite words to him.

Damn, I used to be so young!

"However, I don't have any bad feelings about losing to you, among the people I have seen with my own eyes, your talent can definitely be ranked second!"

Woody was a little curious first.

Perkins said, "You should have heard of that name......

He said that, and Woody knew who it was.

"LeBron James?"

"Uh-huh! I played AUU with him for two years, and seriously, that guy is really perverted, it's hard to believe that guy is a high school student and is the same age as us! Speaking of LeBron, Perkins' face was full of emotion.

AUU is an amateur basketball league that is held every year.

Hearing that Perkins and LeBron were teammates there, Woody was moved and asked, "You were teammates with him, what kind of person is he?" ”

"Him?" Perkins didn't expect Woody to ask that, pursed his lips, and paused, "It's hard to say, I got along fairly well with him when I was at AUU, but I heard that he bullied the team's new player with his hair junior when he was in St. Mary's High School, and that player changed schools this summer, what's wrong, Bro?" You seem to be interested in him? ”

Woody didn't explain that he was LeBron's teammate in the new season, but said: "This is the No. 1 high school student in the United States, of course I'm a little curious!" ”

This reason, no problem at all, Perkins believed, and when the conversation ended, Perkins patted Woody on the shoulder again: "I guess the next time we meet, it will be in the NBA, and I look forward to seeing us meet in that arena!" Of course, I know that the person who should work harder has become me! ”
