Chapter 45 The last preseason game
"Sure enough..." Wu Feng murmured in his heart.
"Wu Feng, after seeing your performance today, I believe that Lan Xie will definitely be very interested in your strength. Although this game is only a preseason, it cannot cover up your strength. If you have the intention to enter the Chinese men's basketball team, I can help you build a bridge." Yao Ming said sincerely to Wu Feng.[]
Wu Feng took a deep breath, was silent for dozens of seconds before answering to Yao Ming: "Brother Yao, to be honest, I don't have the idea of entering the Chinese men's basketball team. Of course, I am willing to play for the motherland, but I don't want to consider this yet. What I want now is to be able to gain a foothold in the Magic and have a foothold in the NBA. You also said that this is just a preseason game. In the preseason game, no team will do their best. This kind of game just allows players to find the rhythm of the game before the regular season arrives. So, my performance in this game is a lot of water. I am very clear about how much I have."
After hearing Wu Feng's words, Yao Ming sighed first, then nodded and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. But Brother Yao believes in your strength, work hard, strive to have a better performance in the regular season and take the position of the team as soon as possible. Well, if you want to enter the Chinese men's basketball team when you recognize your strength, you inform me and I will help you build a bridge. As for whether you can enter, that is another matter."
Wu Feng nodded and said, "Then I will thank Brother Yao first."
"Well, then I'll go back to the hotel first. I'll take a plane back to Houston tomorrow morning. If you have the chance, we will get together again. By the way, when you arrive in Houston, I will take you to my Yao Restaurant and will definitely greet you well." Yao Ming said with a smile.
"That's good. I've long been fascinated by Brother Yao's Yao Restaurant."
"Well, then I'll leave first." Yao Ming waved his hand to Wu Feng.
Wu Feng nodded and watched Yao Ming leave the stadium.
But just as Wu Feng was about to turn around and walk into the locker room, Yao Ming's voice came from behind him.
"Wu Feng, what is your mobile phone number?" Yao Ming was about to leave, but he remembered that he didn't ask Wu Feng's mobile phone number, and it was difficult to contact him in the future.
Wu Feng turned around, walked to Yao Ming, and then reported his mobile phone number. After Yao Ming wrote it down, he smiled at Wu Feng and said, "I'm really leaving!"
"Uh, okay, pay more attention to safety on the road!" Wu Feng said caringly.
In fact, Wu Feng’s concerns are also too much. Every time Yao Ming travels, he basically has bodyguards casually, so safety is not a problem.
Yao Ming said "yes" and left.
It was not until Yao Ming's figure completely disappeared from sight that Wu Feng turned around and walked towards the locker room. After thoroughly packing up his things in the locker room, Wu Feng and Dwight Howard and others went to the bar that had been visited many times.
"Wu, today I must let you lose money." Dwight Howard hugged Wu Feng and laughed.
The other players laughed happily, only Wu Feng smiled awkwardly, estimating how much pocket money they had after treating tonight.
…………
Two weeks later.
Today is October 24th, and the last preseason game of the Magic's new season will be held today. The Magic's opponent today is the Miami Heat led by the "Big Three" that was just formed this summer.
Originally, this game should have been held yesterday, but due to some problems with the Heat's home court, the American Airlines Center, the day before yesterday, the game yesterday was postponed to today.
The Heat's Big Three is the strongest in NBA history
One of ig3, "Little Emperor" LeBron James, "Flash" Devian Wade, and the "Dragon King" Chris Bosh, these three are all top superstars in service.
Especially James and Wade, these two are basically Hall of Fame-level players. Although LeBron James still lacks a championship ring, he does not have to worry about not winning the championship in the next few years with this super combination.
Of course, many fans are also dissatisfied with LeBron James' departure from the Cavaliers and choosing to join the Heat. They feel that his behavior is a loss of the style of a top superstar, and even think that he is "hugging his thighs".
But everyone has their own ideas, and no one can stop a heart chasing the championship.
After defeating the Houston Rockets at home in the first preseason game, the Orlando Magic have been a big hit in the next six preseason games.
On October 9th, the Magic defeated the Indiana Pacers 93:86 away; on October 11, the Magic defeated the New Orleans Hornets 135:81 at home, creating the highest score difference in the summer league in the new season; on October 15, the Magic defeated the Charlotte Bobcats 86:73; on October 17, the Magic defeated the Chicago Bulls 105:67 at home; on October 19, the Magic defeated the Atlanta Hawks 102:73 away; on October 21, the Magic defeated the Dallas Mavericks 101:76 at home.
The Magic have become the only team that remains unbeaten in the preseason in the new season. Today they will challenge the Miami Heat away, strive to win the Heat, maintain a complete preseason victory, and strive to enter the regular season with such a posture.
In the first seven preseason games, Wu Feng got the chance to play.
Wu Feng averaged 23.2 minutes per game in seven games, scoring 13.5 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.2 blocks, with an astonishing 85% shooting percentage and 100% free throw shooting percentage.
However, the reason why Wu Feng has such a high shooting percentage is entirely because his offense is mostly successful with fast attacks, and the 100% free throw shooting percentage is also because of the few free throws.
Moreover, Wu Feng also exposed his problems in these seven preseason games. Wu Feng's defense is good, but he is too risky when defending his opponent. He often gets called for a defensive foul when he reaches for a steal. The average number of fouls per game is enough to illustrate the problem.
Not only that, the 3.3 turnovers per game also made Stan Van Gundy very troubled. Not only Stan Van Gundy had a headache, but even Wu Feng himself was very depressed.
Stan Van Gundy has looked for Wu Feng several times and warned him to pay attention to the two issues of fouls and mistakes, but Wu Feng has not improved these two issues in the last two games.
Although Wu Feng has been very distressed these days, he is very happy today.
Because this is the last half month after hard training in virtual space, his dribbling ability has increased to 85 last night, and his speed has successfully exceeded 88 yesterday.
Wu Feng was very excited. He was looking forward to today's game against the Heat. He wanted to try whether his speed was fast or "Flash" Dwyne Wade's speed was fast in today's game.
