basketball never sleeps

Chapter 8 There is a dog!

Giving up the idea of ​​a one-on-one, James started the pick-and-roll and it became much easier to break into the paint.

Although Mo Wen is good at getting around pick-and-rolls, there are some things that cannot be solved by experience.

That is to say, if a man is too fast, no matter how good his technique is, it will not matter.

Since he gave up the 1v1 men's war, Mo Wen naturally followed suit.

Everyone in the Pistons has been eyeing the No. 1 pick for a long time, due to the coach's instructions, the desire to express themselves while guarding the camera, and... the hatred of the poor towards the wealthy. If it weren't for their short stature, the Pistons' little point guard would all want to block the No. 1 pick.

Just now Okur and another black insider were ready to help defend, but James was not strong enough. The problem that can be solved by single defense may cause problems if they rush to a joint defense.

The other players of the Cavaliers are not weak. James also has a quick and accurate pass, so they don't dare to double-team him.

But now there was a chance. James was about to rush in and threaten the basket. The two big men blocked James without much hesitation.

Feeling the Pistons' internal defense, James still didn't give up. He really wanted to break his embarrassing record of not scoring in the first quarter of the previous two games.

If James were the protagonist of the movie, there would be slow motion at this moment.

Mo Wen was chasing after him, the basket was in front of him, Okur was flying in the distance and the black insider on the other side.

If this goal is scored, it will be a classic scene.

Just when James was about to slam dunk with a ferocious look on his face, his speed suddenly stalled.

There is a dog!

There's a dog pulling at his jersey!

But he can't care about that much at this time, it's just a jersey, and it's not like he hasn't dunked on someone before.

As soon as the speed slowed down, Oku caught up and the other player had time to catch up.

Cheese sandwiched between two buns!

The originally empty dunk lane suddenly became crowded. Two big men took action to slap the basketball. As they got closer, James could even smell the mixed armpit odor of black and white people.

NBA stars wear perfume, but summer league punters don't.

Foul, foul, someone used a biological weapon on the court!

As the basketball was released, James staggered two steps and then fell to the ground, feeling a little dizzy from the smoke.

The Cavaliers' coach complained to the referee on the sidelines about Mo Wen's little action of tugging on his clothes just now. The referee did not see clearly when James was surrounded just now.

Besides, there are too many things like pulling clothes and pulling people on the court. If everyone blows, there will be no smoothness in the game.

The statistician next to me was a little confused, who does this block count for?

James got up from the ground and glared at the two Pistons' black and white insiders, then gave Mo Wen a death stare, as if he wanted to write Mo Wen down in a notebook.

James actually wants to regain his position on the defensive end.

But Mo Wen didn't have any desire to attack in this game, he just wanted to be the top pick.

Now Mo Wen's physical attribute is only 60 points. If he is a marginal player or a substitute and only plays for a few minutes or ten minutes, that is enough.

But as the main force, it's not enough. When using all his strength on both offense and defense, his stamina gauge will be empty in just twenty minutes.

Repeated defeats did not dampen the No. 1 pick's offensive enthusiasm. However, as the team's point difference gradually widened, James could not continue to be willful.

Once again, James scored zero points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Mo Wen took a rest off the court, and James finally found a sense of presence on Sura. But when Mo Wen came on the court again, James was forced to become invisible again.

Mo Wen not only allowed James to see NBA-level wing defense, but also treated him to a feast of elbows.

Small moves like pulling the jersey in front can only be said to be an appetizer. This era has a great tolerance for confrontation. Mo Wen's unique defensive skill of pressing the bottom of the box is what really opened James' eyes.

By the time the game reached the fourth quarter, James had no idea how many times he had "accidentally" received elbows, how many times he had been stabbed in the waist, and how many pieces of flesh had been pinched red.

There were times when he couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to fight back. Instead, he was given a warning by the referee because of his excessive movements and emotional agitation. The real villain, Mo Wen, pretended to be an innocent victim. If it weren't for the cameras on the sidelines,

, he was about to scold his mother.

At the end of the game, James was already numb. Looking at his score of less than double digits on the scoreboard, he pursed his lips and left the court without saying a word.

James played 38 minutes in a normal game and made 3 of 17 shots, 3 of 6 free throws, 9 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds, paying tribute to the future "Three Singles" Simmons.

Although Mo Wen focused all his energy on the defensive end, he was not without achievements on offense. He made 5 of 9 shots and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 13 points, 3 assists and 4 rebounds. Follow him in [Simple Copy]

The data obtained is almost the same, the important thing is to be efficient.

Regardless of his performance or statistics on the court, James was severely suppressed by Mo Wen.

The media were also satisfied. James was right. There was indeed big news today.

The number one pick lost in a head-to-head confrontation with Crane tail!

In high school, James rarely lost, but in just a few games in the summer league, he encountered obstacles everywhere. Even an Asian player he had previously looked down upon could cause him endless trouble.

Mo Wen could still see a bit of unwilling anger in his disappointed eyes.

If James could speak Chinese, he would have to say "Thirty years to the east of Hedong and thirty years to the west of Hexi. Don't bully young people into poverty!"

Perhaps the attack was too harsh during the day, but Mo Wen suffered revenge from the adult James in the dungeon at night.

There was no low-difficulty dungeon, so he chose a [difficult dungeon]. It was the second round of the 2008-09 season playoffs. He took on the identity of "Eagle King" Joe Johnson and faced off against James, and Woodson was also among them.

——He is the head coach of the Eagles this year.

Ajan, who has entered a mature stage, is completely unstoppable to him, and his dominance on both offense and defense cannot be compensated by experience.

Due to the overwhelming talent, he couldn't even learn any game experience. Fortunately, there were only four games in this dungeon.

James wiped out the data of 30+10+9 per game in front of him, and he himself became the third single player, averaging 8+5+4 per game, a tribute to his first brother.

"I wonder when I can add this kind of talent."

Mo Wen looked at his big palm and sighed. His static talent was pretty good, and he could barely see Gang Leader Qiao's back.

It’s this dynamic talent that is painful to practice, and even more painful if you don’t practice it.

······

The summer league passed quickly in just ten days, and the impact of the "Little Emperor's" poor performance was minimized through the efforts of the president and Nike.

The title of this Orlando Summer League was still won by the Pistons. The Cavaliers were training for James. Even if the lineup was good, they didn't have much intention to win. Other teams who inspected players would not be as serious about defense as Woodson, but this was achieved.

Woodson.

Mo Wen performed well in the summer league, and his market has been rising. He averaged 32 minutes per game, scoring 19.2 points, 4.1 assists and 3 rebounds. This kind of performance would be considered amazing for a lottery pick, let alone his draft position.

Only 58 bits.

The Pistons also hurriedly handed the agreed-upon second-round pick contract to Mo Wen.

Dumas originally wanted to extend the 1+1 contract into a longer 2+1 contract, but Mo Wen asked his agent to help him negotiate back to the originally agreed 1+1 contract.

Detroit is not a good place now. In 2001, the proportion of black people in Detroit reached more than 80%. The slums everywhere and the high crime rate caused most of the rich to flee the city.

Mo Wen doesn't mind the wretched development in the early stage, but he will definitely not do anything like one person, one city here.

After signing the contract, Mo Wen simply entrusted his agent John to help him find a house, and then went to Toronto to join Bosh for special training.

Bosh did not participate in the summer league. The Las Vegas Summer League has not yet been established. The Raptors, which is located in Massachusetts, did not even get an invitation to the summer league.

Fortunately, the Raptors' current boss Carter helped organize a training camp.

The naive Carter still thinks that the team just found him a "Pippen". The new general manager originally wanted to use the No. 4 pick of Bosh to exchange for the "Roaring God" Rasheed Wallace, but unfortunately it did not succeed.

, no one would have thought that the Raptors' new management chose Bosh to find a successor to Carter.

Thanks to Uncle Bao's blessing, Carter suffered from injuries in the first two years. As a result, the team owner, who had just made some achievements, lost patience and changed the general manager and head coach this year.

Bosh just wanted to start rebuilding.

The new president hasn't said anything about reconstruction yet, and Bosh thinks he's here to assist Carter.

The reason why Carter is planning to leave in the future is because the Raptors management has made a series of outrageous moves since the beginning of this season, coupled with the clear intention to correct Bosh. During this period, Carter really regarded the Raptors as his home.
