009: Special segment of the meet and greet(1/2)

John Lucas III was panting and controlling the ball on the outside, sweating profusely.

Standing in front of him at this time was freshman guard Hal Joyce.

Logically speaking, facing such a first-year rookie with mediocre talent, Lucas, as a college star player, should be able to win easily.

But at this time, he and his teammates were in a tough fight.

Joyce looked relaxed, even a little casual.

He knew that it didn't matter even if he was broken through by Lucas.

Because there is someone behind him.

Lucas worked hard and used speed to tear Joyce's defense apart.

At the same time, Lucas' teammate and tool man Warren also pulled Tony Allen to the other side of the court.

In the past, as long as he didn't match up with Tony Allen, Lucas could basically score at will.

But today, even if he broke through his matchup, even if Tony Allen was pulled away, Lucas did not dare to slack off.

Because between him and the basket stood Wayne, who seemed to be addicted to blocking shots.

The basket guarded by Wayne has become a well-known no-fly zone for a week.

Lucas hesitated for a moment, then rushed in.

"Damn, there are really people who are not afraid of death." Upon seeing this, Wayne immediately took a step forward, preparing to block Lucas when he went for a layup.

"Now!"

Lucas's eyes lit up when he saw Wayne taking steps forward.

While walking, he suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball to his inside teammate Frank Holmes.

Holmes was the Cowboys' starting center last season. He is a pure blue-collar guy who does the dirty work on the field.

Although he is only 2.08 meters tall, his weight reaches 108 kilograms. He is a veritable armored warrior.

Since Wayne just took a step forward and left the reasonable collision area to cover Lucas, Holmes now got an almost layup opportunity behind Wayne.

"Lucas's vision is still so good, Wayne was deceived. From the beginning, Lucas' purpose was to pass the ball." Sean on the sidelines applauded in advance, but his father shook his head gently.

Shake his head.

"Really? The little space Holmes got doesn't seem to be enough."

As soon as the elder Sutton finished speaking, Holmes, who had just jumped up, felt that there was no light under the basket.

The next second, Wayne's big hand came as expected and hit the basketball hard.

Since improving his shot-blocking ability, Wayne's judgment on the timing of blocking shots has been qualitatively improved.

He is always able to react immediately and seize the fleeting opportunity to block shots.

"Crack!"

Wayne's arm was like a fly swatter, slapping the basketball out of bounds for the third consecutive round!

Lucas' plan failed.

"Hahahahaha, well done Wayne, that's it, this is my Big Mac!"

Tony Allen excitedly rushed up and pushed Wayne. Being assigned to the same team as Wayne was the most exciting thing for him.

Because since this week, as long as they are assigned to a group, they will basically not lose in a three-on-three cross-match.

"Yeah, yeah, great job." Wayne replied calmly, not particularly excited, just as free and easy as a veteran.

"It seems that as a sophomore, he is much more mature mentally than last season. Even after completing a beautiful block, he is still very calm." Old Sutton nodded approvingly.

Logically speaking, Holmes should have scored the goal just now, because Lucas had already deceived Wayne.

But Wayne's wingspan is really outstanding, which makes his blocking range extremely huge.

With an easy turn, Wayne killed Holmes's sure-fire layup.

Now, Eddie Sutton is looking forward to the 5-on-5 actual training starting next week.

He really wanted to know whether this calm Chinese forward could maintain such a state in a 5-on-5 game.

That's right, calm. In everyone's opinion, Wayne's calm appearance after blocking the shot is a reflection of his calm character.

But actually...

"Complete the block, growth points +5."

Looking at the growth points that looked like ant meat in front of him, Wayne was really depressed instead of calm!

It’s so annoying, I really want to float out and shoot a three-pointer...

Moreover, why are we assigned to the same team as Tony Allen today?

As the strongest fighting force of the Cowboys, it would be a waste of resources to play with him.

You have to be a rival with him to get started.

Only by confronting Tony Allen can you get the most difficulty bonus and earn the most growth points.

Now I've become a bastard with Tony Allen, and I don't get much "income" from playing all afternoon.

So boring, invincible and lonely...

Wayne couldn't get enough energy, and Lucas and his team were completely autistic.

For three consecutive rounds, Wayne took risks one by one.

Is there still heavenly law? Is there still royal law?

Wayne's progress has exceeded everyone's expectations. It was already miserable enough to deal with one Tony Allen, but now there is another Wayne.

This is impossible to fight.

In the end, Wayne and Tony Allen easily won this round 21-8.

"Coach, I propose that Wayne and Tony cannot be put on the same team in the future."

As soon as the game was over, John Lucas, who was bullied, ran to "sue the teacher".

"I can't control this, Lucas. You know, our groupings are all random." Sutton smiled and spread his hands. He really enjoyed the game where Wayne and Tony Allen teamed up.

"Then separate Wayne and Tony first. Really, with them together, none of us can score."

Seeing Lucas actively fighting for a fair playing field, Wayne muttered to himself: "I agree too!"

Being on a team with Tony Allen is really boring.

In this way, under the terrifying rule of Wayne and Tony Allen, the Cowboys ended another day of training.

No team can survive the defensive chain formed by Wayne and Tony Allen.

After returning to the locker room, Wayne brought up the system interface and took a look. At this time, he was still 1,200 points away from being upgraded again.

If he hadn't been assigned to the same team as Tony Allen today, Wayne estimated that he could have upgraded the system to version 2.0.

It's all Benzema's fault!

"Wow, you had a great time playing today, Wayne! I can already imagine us surprising our opponents in the March Madness tournament next season!"

At this time, Tony Allen walked out of the shower room and excitedly stretched out his hand to give Wayne a high-five.

He was still immersed in the joy of just a series of victories.

Wayne looked at the things dangling in front of him and couldn't do anything: "Tony, you can just wear a bath towel."

"Hahahaha, I'm sorry, I'm so excited. Playing with your team is so fun! I didn't expect you to improve so much. Did you secretly train during the summer vacation!?"

"Well, I put in a lot of effort during the summer vacation."

Wayne would never tell Tony Allen that he had not even had a day of formal training since returning to China during the summer vacation.

In 2003, domestic basketball facilities were still very limited at that time. And since I had already graduated from the youth team, it was not easy to go back and train with others.

Therefore, Wayne basically trained by himself during the summer vacation, and the results were obvious.

However, no one knows what Wayne actually experienced during those few months in China. Therefore, he can attribute all the reasons for his progress to his summer vacation to avoid arousing suspicion.

"If you can perform like this in official games... I believe NBA scouts will definitely notice you, Wayne! Maybe we can still play together in the NBA. We must work hard.

ah."

Tony Allen looked at his hands, his expression gradually becoming serious.

One thing to say, although he doesn’t want to be in the same group as Tony Allen, after getting in touch with him for a while, Wayne still thinks Tony Allen is quite interesting.

Tony Allen never complained during one-on-one training and took good care of himself on weekdays.

Like most football stars, Mr. Tony, who was born in the "Sin City" of Chicago, had a childhood filled with violence and crime.

He used to have many friends who played with him, but gradually, most of them went to jail, and eventually he was the only one left.

Therefore, he cherishes the partners he plays with very much.

Including Wayne.
