Super Lord of the Rings
Chapter 25 [First Show]
Adamson chose to attack with Powell as the core and mainly attack Wang Jun's defensive side.
As the team's vice-captain, Powell has the ability to take on the heavy burden of offense, and Adamson's arrangement is just what he wants.
Walking onto the court, Powell looked at Wang Jun coldly and thought: I heard that you are very good at three-pointers, so I will be a substitute to prevent you from taking easy shots, and you will never get rid of me once.
The game started, and Kaman easily jumped the ball to win.
Wang Jun ran to the right bottom corner, and Kaman also went to the low post on the right to ask for the ball, according to the coach's arrangement.
Harris hoisted the ball into the interior, and Kaman singled out substitute center Quentin Haywood with the ball.
Heywood with a height of 209cm is a tragedy. He was in the same grade as Kaman, entered the Wolverines with high hopes, and won a scholarship. Kaman was brushed off in the competition with him.
At that time, Kaman, who had only received invitations from three universities, was ready to go to Central Michigan University and participate in the sub-division league. Heywood slipped and fell in the shower and was seriously injured, and Kaman was called back by Wolverine.
Kaman became the starting center in the first year, averaging 9.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.63 blocks per game. Heywood only played three games off the bench after he recovered from injury, and didn't play much.
In the second year, Kaman's strength improved, and he was already an inside line that could attract double teams. Heywood was even more stable on the bench, playing less than 10 minutes per game.
The gap between the two is even bigger this year, because Kaman's shots are getting more and more accurate.
Relying on Haywood, he turned sharply to the middle, widened the distance and scored with a left-handed hook. 2 to 0.
The green team attacked, and the rookie Gordon dribbled across the half court and passed it to Powell who was asking for the ball on Wang Jun's side.
Powell caught the ball with his back at 60 degrees on the right side, shook his left shoulder slightly, and turned quickly to the right. This was an action that couldn't be simpler. Wang Jun anticipated the direction of the opponent's turn and moved towards the breakthrough route in an attempt to block it, but he was a step too late.
Powell turned to face the frame, took the ball with his left hand and took a quick stop jump shot, and the ball went in without defense! 2 to 2.
Powell looked at Wang Jun proudly, and slowly returned to defense. As he expected, it was easy to get past Wang Jun.
David frowned slightly, with a serious expression on his face.
This is Wang Jun's biggest weakness. The acceleration in a straight line is good, but not agile enough.
He moves slowly and turns even slower. Once he can't keep up with the first step, he can only rely on his teammates to defend.
The white team attacked, and Wang Jun went to the bottom corner again, but the ball was still thrown to Kaman in the low post.
David is a utilitarian basketball player who believes that winning is the most important thing. He will ask his players to pass the ball to the most efficient player, as long as he can win, he doesn't mind the ugly game.
The outside players don't like it very much when it is passed to Kaman for a back-up attack. He has no assists with the ball.
This time Kaman squeezed into the penalty area by relying on his physical advantage. Backup small forward Lawrence Grant released Harris to help, and Kaman passed the ball 50 degrees to the right.
Harris received the ball open, unguarded, took a look at the three-pointer but the ball popped out of the basket, and the rebound was obtained by the opponent.
This is why Abby and David firmly invited Wang Jun to play after knowing that he can shoot. Even without props, Wang Jun can shoot better than them.
A strong shot doesn't mean you can score...
The two sides fought several rounds, the green team dominated fast breaks, and the white team played positional battles.
The score was 10 to 14, and the white team composed of four starters fell behind by 4 points.
Wang Jun ran back and forth, and all the statistics were zero. He didn't receive a pass at all in so many rounds.
It's not that everyone deliberately ran against him, but that Wang Jun couldn't get rid of the defender.
Larry Powell has always defended Wang Jun closely, not double-teaming Kaman, and not helping to defend others. In this case, even if he receives the ball, he can't make a shot and is prone to mistakes. Wang Jun was very depressed by being entangled, and tried to move, but how could he get rid of Powell, who is good at speed?
On the defensive end, Wang Jun struggled even more.
Powell scored 8 points for the green team, and he also sent two assists.
Wang Jun is always easily passed, unable to interfere at all, turning around can only watch the opponent stop for a jump shot, or attract the defense to score the ball after breaking through.
David did not replace Wang Jun, but shouted to the field: "Bobby, go pick and roll for Wang, Wang, move."
Everyone could see that Powell was competing with Wang Jun, and would rather let Kaman score with his own ability, but he would not help defend.
At this time, David can't call a timeout and let Powell let go of Wang Jun to make up the defense, right? It would be stupid to let the opponent know that the other party can shoot. So he arranged for the power forward to help Wang Jun get rid of it and get a chance to make a move.
In the positional battle, Wang Jun relied on Bobby's side without the ball to run up the line, and finally avoided Powell.
Kaman passed the ball over, Wang Jun caught the ball and aimed at the basket, the side players quickly defended and emptied Bobby, and Powell was chasing, forming a double-team.
Damn, think highly of me! Wang Jun cursed in his heart.
How can he shoot in this situation? Quickly pass the ball to Bobby who is empty on the side.
Bobby catches the ball and misses an open shot, dribbling the ball towards the basket. His shooting ability is very poor, only the middle jumper is a little sure.
Kaman was standing at the basket, Bobby dribbled the ball, the opponent's center immediately switched defenses, and the Green team's power forward also chased back. Without an obvious opportunity, Bobby had to pass the ball again.
After several passes, Wang Jun still didn't get any chance to make a move.
After playing for another three minutes, Wang Jun repeatedly escaped from the side with off-ball screens, but the inside changed defense quickly. The magic weapon for Wolverine players to win is fast break and defense, especially the zone defense.
The old players know each other too well, boldly let go of those who are not good at shooting. The news of Wang Jun's good shot spread within the team, and they all stared at him, planning to give the rookie a bad shot.
This is like a nightmare for Wang Jun. His only feeling is that everyone is too fast, even the inside line is too fast. The only slow Kaman and his gang.
How to do? Do you want to rush to try? As long as he's quick enough, he should be able to dodge the block. After a second of distraction, Wang Jun was passed by Powell again.
Powell made an emergency stop for a jump shot, and the ball bounced out of the frame. Wang Jun saw the ball bounced in the direction of Kaman, and immediately turned around and made a fast break.
Kaman passed it to Luke, and Luke passed it to Wang Jun. When Wang Jun received the ball, he observed the defender's position and shot quickly.
Green team power forward Eric Bronin rushed up, jumped very high, and almost succeeded in blocking the shot. This situation is a test of the heart.
Wang Jun was afraid of being blocked and was jealous of his opponent's height, so he shot faster than usual. The price was that the rhythm was messed up, but the shape and arc of the hand were still there.
The rebound was obtained by the green team, but Wang Jun missed the shot and was slow to return to defense. In the two-on-one frontcourt, Kaman had no choice but to watch Powell gallop wildly and score an easy dunk.
Played two more rounds, still the same situation. Wang Jun couldn't get rid of it. Others had a chance to miss the shot, and David frowned more and more.
Adamson walked to his side, gloated and said with a smile: "Look, playing games and training shooting are two different things. There are many examples like this in the NBA, right?"
David looked at the court and said flatly: "You'd better pray that he can play well. Everyone was there during the test, and you nodded. This is only the first day, and he will adapt to the rhythm in the future."
Adamson fell silent, and Liu Wangjun passed collectively, so what else could he say?
There was a dead ball on the court, David replaced Wang Jun, and his debut was completely unqualified.
