Chapter 21 Genius is hypocrisy
"Chinese boy, give him some color!"
"I'll pay attention to you!"
"Don't let him continue to be arrogant!"
When Emperor Wu came on the court this time, there were finally no discriminatory words such as "Chinese guys" and even "yellow monkeys". There were more shouts of cheering him up, which was a good sign.
He grew up in the United States and knew the attitude of white people towards Chinese. A small number of white people think that Chinese people are smart and studious and willing to contact them.
But there are more white people, and their attitude towards Chinese is worse than that of blacks.
In this country, the issue of race is basically a problem of blacks and whites, and Asians and Latinos are basically not mentioned in racial discussions. In public conversations, some topics about African Americans cannot be talked about, but for Asian Americans, they can be told casually. The so-called elimination of racial discrimination is just a joke of double standards.
Wu Huang has been called "Chinese" by white classmates since he was a child. When he was in junior high school, he originally planned to join the basketball school team, but when the school coach called him, he didn't know his name and called him Chink casually. This made Wu Huang feel that he was greatly insulted and did not join the school team in anger.
This experience made him choose high school later, instead of choosing schools with well-known basketball programs, he chose Walnut High School, which has a large number of Chinese people. He just didn't want to meet a coach with racism. He didn't think that a coach who discriminated against Chinese would train him well.
Kemba Walker became more energetic when he saw Emperor Wu appearing again.
This kid is very energetic and doesn't think that Emperor Wu will be better than him at all. Even Emperor Wu can start, why can't he? Moreover, Dawson was beaten by Emperor Wu before. If he can defeat Emperor Wu, can he still run at the starting position?
"Wu, I'm not as easy as Dawson. Be careful of being intercepted by me." Kemba Walker's words should be considered trash words. Most black players' mouths are unintentional, so this is more polite.
"I'm taller than you, so I don't need to break through." Emperor Wu said this without his brain. He even regretted it himself. Isn't this ridicule for being short? It seems a bit unkind.
"Bastard, wait for me." Kemba Walker was ridiculed to be short, and his impression of Emperor Wu suddenly became extremely bad. He was most afraid of others saying that he was short.
Kemba Walker is 183cm tall, but in fact, his real height is less than 180cm. However, he is one year younger than Wu Huang, and may be able to grow a few cm longer, but now he is indeed much shorter than Wu Huang. In addition, the difference in arm span is at least 20cm lower than Wu Huang.
Emperor Wu originally wanted to add a sentence, "I dance higher than you," but fortunately I held it in time, otherwise the grudge would have become bigger.
"Speak less trash words, it's too easy to offend people." Emperor Wu secretly warned himself that he must control his mouth, otherwise he would not have a friend in the future, which would be a tragedy. But then he thought about it, it seemed that Larry Bird, Jordan, and Garnett were the masters of trash words, but what if he didn't see them?
The game started over and Wu Huang took the ball to attack, but he seemed a little absent-minded?
Kemba Walker has good stealing skills, perhaps because he was angry with the opponent's trash words. He wanted to intercept the ball for the first time against the ball, which seemed a bit naive. If this kind of gambling steal is not successful, it means losing his defensive position.
Emperor Wu had long been used to discussing problems with himself in his heart, not being distracted on the court. On the contrary, he was prepared. He quickly pulled the basketball away with his big hand and easily dodged Kemba Walker's steal in disguise, broke into the left horn position in two steps, and rushed to the left before assisting defense, and hit a jump shot again.
Floyd clapped his hands on the sidelines. Wu Huang's breakthrough was a point-to-stop type. His explosive power and speed would not easily be able to drive full power, so he would not have a scene like Kemba Walker who had three people in a row.
After Emperor Wu broke through, he would immediately jump into the blue whenever he had a free spot. It seemed that the impact was not strong, but in fact it was fatal and efficient.
Floyd felt that Emperor Wu was a bit like the swordsman he saw in the Eastern martial arts movie. He drew his sword out of the sheath, and his sword was fatal, and he killed people without blood!
Kemba Walker was a little overwhelmed. After he was passed, he wanted to turn around and chase him, but Emperor Wu quickly shot and did not give him a chance to play the second round.
Jim Kahon shook his head, which is why he didn't let Kemba Walker play the starter. Although this first-year student has great potential, he is too young and immature in his mind. He often makes reckless and even stupid choices on the court.
Kemba Walker still doesn't understand one thing. If you can't excel in the game, you must at least be stable, just like Kangda's starting point guard Dawson. The most taboo thing the coach is that the player's performance is frequent, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and the kind of player who performs well in several consecutive rounds but then contributes several mistakes will definitely not be able to start.
Wu Huang is a big step away from Kemba Walker on the defensive end. This is his habit of defending players like this. The advantage of a long wingspan is that he can stay away and have more reaction time. He has a natural advantage against a player with strong explosive power like Kemba Walker.
Kemba Walker's mid-range shooting has always been unstable. Although he has strong key ball ability, his regular shooting percentage is not high, so he is still a relatively iron point guard. Generally, he will break through first and use changes or steps back to create shooting space before he will take action.
Wu Huang's advantage in footsteps was immediately reflected. Kemba Walker did not throw away him twice in a row. In the end, he was unwilling to pass the ball, so he could only force a shot and leaned back.
Although this kind of high-difficulty shot cannot be blocked, it is generally difficult to make a shot without interference. In addition to Wu Huang's height, wingspan and bounce advantages, he stretched out a big hand to seal Kemba Walker's face. In the end, the ball did not even touch the basket, and after hitting the rebound, he bounced directly to Gibson's hand.
"Chinese boy, beautifully done!"
"It should be so defensive. This is Los Angeles, so that he can know that USC is great."
"Kang Da kid, you won't even find the rebound next time!"
The home team fans in the stadium began to agree with Wu Huang. His performance on the defensive end surprised Southern California fans. It seems that they have obtained a good point guard who can attack and defend this year.
Kang Da head coach Jim Kahon also began to pay attention to this Chinese. Kemba Walker's previous continuous changes were definitely not so easy to defend against.
This Chinese is very smart. He has made plans and made choices from the beginning.
From his position, we can see that his main defense is breakthrough, but his physical talent allows him to achieve the second goal very well. This No. 14 is not an ordinary character.
Emperor Wu also felt that he was not an ordinary character. After Emperor Wu came on the court, Kemba Walker seemed to knock down a wall and broke through three consecutive times without success. He was either blocked by Emperor Wu and interfered with the final shot, or to break through Emperor Wu and forced to accelerate, which eventually led to losing control of his body and unable to find the basket anywhere.
"Young and energetic, it's okay to learn some lessons today." Jim Kahon was very happy to see Kemba Walker being covered in dust by Emperor Wu. He should have learned more lessons at this age, and the progress will be obvious.
Coach Conda knows very well that Kemba Walker has already gotten into the horns. Since he can't break through, won't you call a pick-and-roll?
And why do you have to make a breakthrough?
This No. 14 just used the off-ball screen to successfully get rid of defense, get an open shot, and easily hit a three-pointer. Why not learn from the ready-made examples that others put in front of you?
Three minutes later, Jim Kahon replaced the panting Kemba Walker.
In just three minutes, Kemba Walker was exhausted and panting when he returned from the court.
Of course, this may not be tiring, it may be anger.
The home fans kept laughing at him loudly, and even after the game, someone whispered him overestimating his ability.
Kemba Walker was also a pride of heaven in high school. He had never encountered setbacks before college. Now this blow is definitely the biggest nightmare he has experienced in his life!
DeRozan, sitting off the court, felt excited when he saw Kemba Walker with a embarrassed look on his face.
This mentality is right. At least he is not jealous of Emperor Wu, which shows that the young man is still very promising.
In the first half, Wu Huang fully utilized his shooting ability, his scoring steadily increased, and his assists unknowingly increased to a surprising number. After only halftime, he actually scored 18 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists.
