Ryder's arms were forcefully returned to his chest by Wu Dao. Even though he tried hard to break away from Wu Dao's hand, he couldn't do it at all.
Only now did Ryder have some understanding of the terrifying power of martial arts.
Human strength cannot be measured by weight alone. The main source of strength is actually muscles. Since Ryder became an NBA player, his usual strength training has actually been greatly reduced compared to before he entered the NBA.
After becoming an NBA player, he basically didn't train during the off-season. He just ate and drank, got some contraband that could be obtained everywhere in this country, and enjoyed the so-called life.
His strength is simply incomparable to someone who has been training in martial arts for many years.
Moreover, in addition to martial arts training, he practices judo all year round, and his wrist strength is far superior to that of ordinary players.
After being pushed away by Wu Dao, Leder realized that he might really suffer a loss if he started fighting with the young man in front of him. He glared at Wu Dao. Under the persuasion of the coach and manager who rushed into the stadium, he also took advantage of the slope and walked towards the donkey. Wu Dao said fiercely:
"Boy, don't think that scoring two goals is a big deal."
"Just wait, I will let you understand the difference between high school students and NBA players!"
After Ryder finished speaking, he turned around and ran towards the backcourt. Wu Dao glanced at Ryder's back, curled his lips, and snorted slightly in disappointment.
In his heart, he still hoped that Ryder would take the initiative. In this case, he could let him feel his fist well.
As long as the opponent does not use American Iai, Budo is confident that Ryder will be submissive.
"You call it martial arts, right?"
"Play hard and I'll keep an eye on your performance."
Bill Blair followed Wu Dao's gaze and glanced at Ryder who ran to the backcourt. He turned back and said with a smile to Wu Dao.
Before that, he didn't care about the high school student that Phillip Saunders brought to try out, but after seeing the performance of Wu Dao's two goals, his view of Wu Dao has completely changed.
Different from when he was off the court, when he was on the court, Wu Dao was very tough.
Of course, attitude is only one aspect. The main reason is that Bill Blair was very satisfied with Wu Dao's performance during the two defenses.
To see if a player is excellent, the first thing to look at is the player's defense.
Budo made good use of his own advantages on the defensive end, and he was just a high school student. He could handle the impact of a mature NBA player so easily.
Although it was only two goals, Bill Blair has already recognized the role of martial arts on the defensive end.
As long as martial arts continues to develop in this direction, no matter what happens, you can become a defensive leader after entering the NBA. There is no problem in being a tool man.
On the basis of defensive ability, Bill Blair was also deeply impressed by the split dunk that Wu Dao had just avoided Garnett's pursuit.
The various talents shown in martial arts so far have been enough to attract the attention of Bill Blair.
Bill Blair had a smile in his eyes, patted Wu Dao on the shoulder, and then walked off the court.
Manager Phillip Sanders was quietly relieved when he saw that the conflict between Wu Dao and Ryder did not escalate. He was really afraid that Wu Dao would suffer in the hands of Rydell. He didn't think a high school student could beat a black man who grew up in a community school.
Ryder is different from ordinary NBA players from the NCAA. He attended a junior college for two years. He went to community schools during his freshman and sophomore years. He understands the campus environment of these schools.
The coach and manager returned to the dugout one after another.
This conflict in the stadium came and went very quickly.
When Wu Dao's teammates saw Wu Dao return to the field and defend, they looked at each other for a few times and said nothing.
They could feel the low pressure emanating from Wu Dao. Facing Wu Dao, a high school student who dared to confront the evil man Ryder, these players wisely chose to remain silent.
Play ball, since you are on the court, let's play ball well.
When the game resumed, Garnett knew that Leder must be holding back anger at this time. When the opponent returned to the backcourt, he quickly passed the ball to the opponent, then accelerated past Leder and headed toward the frontcourt. Run.
After the conflict between Wu Dao and Ryder, the atmosphere on the field became depressing.
The players ran around without saying a word, and Ryder quickly approached the top of the arc with the ball.
When Budo saw Ryder approaching the three-point line, he walked in front of the opponent without saying a word, put on a defensive posture, spread his arms, and looked at the opponent coldly.
Ryder dribbled the ball with his right hand, turned slightly to the side, looked at the inside, and then waved towards Garnett and the others, signaling the inside players to pull away.
Leder's two teammates were very knowledgeable. The young Garnett saw that the "old-timer" seemed to be preparing for a singles, and quickly left the inside. Then Garnett seemed to have little confidence in his "old-timer", and after leaving the inside Moving towards the bull horn high.
What Garnett had in mind was very simple. If Leder succeeded, he would applaud vigorously.
But if Ryder is intercepted by Martial Arts again, he will be able to return to defense immediately.
What Wu Dao doesn't know is that the lever dunk he just performed on Garnett's face has already made Garnett remember him. Garnett plans to return the favor, otherwise others will underestimate him as an NBA rookie!
Nearly ten seconds passed on the attack time.
Leder held the ball but did not attack for a long time. Seeing Leder holding the ball for such a long time, Wu Dao's teammates actually had no intention of coming up to double-team them. They all stood in their own positions and did not even care about the opponent's position. , all looked at Ryder and Wu Dao.
The same goes for the rest of the green team. They had no intention of helping Leder in the pick-and-roll, and were just scattered outside the three-point line or near the bottom corner, looking at Leder.
Coach Bill, who was outside the court, didn't say much when faced with the "idiot" positions of the players on the court. Like everyone else, he looked at Ryder.
It was obviously a five-on-five game, but at this moment it seemed to be a one-on-one duel.
Ryder seemed to be looking for a flaw in Budo's defense, dribbling the ball like this until 13 seconds of attack time passed.
Only then did Wu Dao see Leder make a move. Leder, who was standing at the top of the arc, paused and his dribbling rhythm suddenly accelerated. After the two quickly changed hands to dribble in front of their bodies, Leder stepped forward and accelerated directly.
However, when he interfered with Wu Dao's defense, Ryder immediately stopped in the high post. With a bad luck, he quickly took a step back to the three-point line. When Wu Dao caught up, he combined the ball with both hands, trying to make a stop. Human action.
However, his actions seemed to have been anticipated by Wu Dao. When the opponent made a virtual combination of the ball, Wu Dao directly raised his hand and pointed at the basketball.
Seeing that the ball was about to be intercepted, Ryder had no choice but to force the ball together and pull up and shoot in place close to the three-point line.
Although he was a heavy-point shooting player in the 1990s, Leder still has good three-point ability.
In the 1995-96 season, he shot 37.1% from three-point range and averaged 3.7 shots per game. Among the players of his generation, his number of three-point shots is already above average, and his shooting percentage can only be said to be yes.
Wu Dao failed to steal the ball, and Leder took action in a hurry.
The basketball flew dangerously past Wu Dao's fingertips and flew towards the basket.
However, it seems that martial arts put too much pressure on the opponent, or that Ryder himself did not control it well. In short, the basketball did not go into the basket and brush the net as Ryder expected. Instead, it hit the front edge of the basket and bounced straight out.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Wu Dao turned around quickly, jumped lightly and directly hit the flying basketball. When he landed and turned around to drop the ball from the right, he saw Ryder's figure appearing in front of him. He was already prepared and waiting with his hands outstretched. Martial arts drop ball.
It has to be said that although he was blocked by Martial Arts for two goals, Leder is an NBA-level scorer and did a very good job on the defensive end.
If it were a newbie, he would actually be the one to do it!
Wu Dao grabbed the ball with his right hand and leaned forward. He originally planned to drop the ball from the right side. He grabbed the basketball with one hand and dribbled directly behind his back. The basketball landed on his left side.
Picking up the rebounding basketball with his left hand, Wu Dao accelerated directly and easily passed Ryder and ran towards the frontcourt.
Just a few steps after running out, Ryder's figure chased up from the side of Wu Dao, pressing his chest against Wu Dao's shoulder, and covering Wu Dao's eyes with one hand, trying to block Wu Dao.
Normally, when the ball holder faces such a defense, the best option is to pass the ball. Even if it doesn't work, he will pause and adjust.
Therefore, from holding the board to advancing with the ball, generally speaking, players have not been able to adapt to such changes in rhythm so quickly.
But martial arts is different. His hands are big and he can easily catch the basketball with one hand. He does not need to pause to adjust the rhythm. The moment he takes the basketball, the rhythm has already been adjusted.
This is why players with larger hands tend to have better ball skills.
Because players with bigger hands have more control over the basketball!
In just one sudden advance, Martial Arts had already adapted to the confrontation provided by Ryder. Of course, his advancement speed was also suppressed and slowed down a bit.
Realizing this, Wu Dao simply stopped and started, adjusted Leder's defensive rhythm, and quickly crossed the three-point line with the ball. When Leder pursued him again, the tall Wu Dao unexpectedly It was during the march that he quickly changed directions, completely leaving Ryder behind.
The outstanding ball shape and beautiful breakthrough movements with the ball made other people on the court look at him at this time.
After Garnett saw Wu Dao approaching a three-pointer and throwing away Leder, he quickly moved up and made up for Wu Dao.
When Wu Dao approached the three-point line, Wu Dao saw Garnett step forward and put his foot on the three-point line. While Wu Dao exploded the ball, he pretended to change direction, and when the basketball rebounded, Wu Dao's There was a brief pause in the hand for a second.
After dribbling in the air, Wu Dao suddenly stepped forward and accelerated, directly passing Garnett who was slightly raising his center of gravity and preparing to adjust his direction.
Another bomb blast, Wu Dao grabbed the basketball with one hand, took two big steps and directly inserted into the green team's inside line.
At this moment, Garnett also pursued him and reached out to seal the top of Wu Dao's head.
During the impact, Wu Dao gave Garnett "100 million points" of physical confrontation in the last step, then grabbed the ball with one hand near the basket, paused and leaned back, flipped his wrist slightly, and sent the basketball in his hand directly.
After being pushed by Wu Dao, Garnett still took off smoothly, but his take-off position was one meter away from where Wu Dao took action. His shot blocking was simply impossible to block Martial Arts' fadeaway jumper.
The basketball flew directly over Garnett's head, hit the backboard at a 45° angle, and then accurately bounced into the basket.
As two consecutive soft sounds reached Garnett's ears, he turned around and saw the basketball falling from the net and hitting the ground.
Flip Saunders, who was watching the ball from the sidelines, saw Budo grab the rebound, then go to the basket and score the ball against Garnett's defense. He couldn't help but stand up, walked to the sidelines, and clapped his tambourine with a smile. He clapped his hands.
When Wu Dao returned to defense, he passed by the dugout, heard the applause, turned his head and glanced at manager Phillip Saunders, and then immediately looked away.
Unlike Flip Saunders, who was happy, the other Timberwolves players who were sitting on the court looking at Wu Dao who quickly returned to defense were a little stunned.
Compared with the previous two goals, they could see more from Wu Dao in this one.
Excellent single defense ability, strong jumping, smooth dribbling, rich facing skills, and good physical confrontation.
The high school student in the field at this time was covered in weapons.
The comprehensiveness of the technology makes everyone secretly stunned.
Tom Gugliotta, who was originally happy to see Ryder deflated, now had a smile on his face. He felt a strong threat from the young man Wu Dao.
If he remembered correctly, the yellow man in the stadium played the small forward position!
He didn't care at first, but now it seems that Flip Saunders would call this high school student to visit the training, not because of any personal relationship or money.
What Phillip Sanders was interested in was the yellow man's terrifying scoring ability and excellent physical condition!
From the time Wu Dao came on the field to now, it has only been a few offensive and defensive rounds. In terms of time, it has only been more than a minute, but Wu Dao has already scored 3 goals and scored 6 points.
Admittedly, this was due to Leder's repeated "mistakes" and his playing skills.
But doesn’t this also illustrate from the side how terrifying the explosive scoring power of martial arts is?
There are many role players on the Timberwolves bench who can't score 6 points in a whole game. Not to mention scoring three goals in a row like Wu Dao.
Being able to score three goals in a row in front of NBA players is a manifestation of ability in itself.
After retreating from defense and returning to the court, Wu Dao stood at the top of the three-point arc and frowned slightly as he looked at his teammates who came back one after another and his opponents who began to slowly press into the frontcourt.
too weak.
These people in the Timberwolves are really too weak. There is no way for martial arts to feel the "sense of oppression" from their opponents. That is to say, Garnett asked him to do some moves when he defended himself. As for the others, he simply couldn't feel it. You can't feel the defensive pressure.
So far, fighting in martial arts has been very easy, so easy, just like playing in a high school game.
Wu Dao feels that if his teammates hit him, he can easily score 30+ hits on his opponent's head in half a half.
This is the most realistic feeling that the green team has given to martial arts!
