Chapter 23 Zheng Tie VS McGrady
McGrady also said a harsh word before taking a break.

"It doesn't matter, Dongfang Zheng, I will not let anyone off in today's training camp." McGrady said: "Who told me that I am in good shape today."

"Haha, what a coincidence~ Mr. Can't Wake Up, I happen to be here, too." Zheng Tie was not to be outdone.

……

Tell the truth.

Now that everyone sees the characters No. 1 and 2 above, they seem to feel that they are a bit unreal.

Because before these two people were in the ABCD training camp, few people knew them at all.

now what……

It's already the training camp, no, in front of so many scouts and coaches who have played against the sky, the two of them will definitely be mentioned after the training camp is over, at least all over the United States. The basketball world knows that there are such two people.

It was truly an overnight success.

The standard American dream.

Zheng Tie is not interested in the "American dream" at all. The only thing he is interested in in the United States, apart from the green and beautiful swords, is the Ocean Horse.

The rest, haha, two words say everything.

On the sidelines, Rick Pitino walked over again next to Zheng Tie. He said: "Dongfang Zheng~ I'm sorry that I spoke to you in that tone last time. You have proven with your strength that you are proud. capital."

At this point, Pitino still let Zheng Tie take a look at it a little bit, at least he took the initiative to admit his mistake in judgment.

Moreover, they were the first NCAA school to invite him. In the spirit of returning the favor, Zheng Tie said humorously: "It's good to know. There's no one who doesn't make mistakes, right? If you know you're wrong, just change it." An old Chinese saying , acknowledging mistakes can greatly improve things. I won’t take it to heart.”

This kid... Is this an attitude that you won't take to heart?
Your attitude is obviously "very vengeful", okay?

Rick Pitino stopped his little assistant from speaking, and said himself: "Yes, in the basketball world, strength is the last word. You have proved yourself, then you are qualified to make us apologize."

"I want to ask, Zheng, can you really... Sky Hook?" Rick Pitino still asked his doubts.

After all, no one in the United States has really learned this stunt, so he will inevitably feel a little bit grouchy.

"What? What does it mean to be able to do it?" Zheng Tie said while replenishing water: "Didn't I just use it well? This is one of my conventional weapons. Old man."

Rick Pitino is 52 years old, so he can't be called old. He is only 96 years old now.But Pitino didn't pay attention to these... because his attention was completely attracted by the second half of what Zheng Tie said just now.

He says……

Not only will, but also...

conventional weapons.

This difference is a world of difference.

If it's just yes, then the value is not special enough, but if it's a conventional weapon, then the meaning is completely different.

"Conventional weapons? Dongfang Zheng, aren't you afraid that your tongue will be swallowed by your own big words?"

Zheng Tie looked at the white assistant and smiled contemptuously.

You fucking look down on me, why should I look down on you?
"Isn't it, won't you know later?" Zheng Tie added after finishing speaking.

"Old man, your assistant is a complete idiot. I advise you to fire him as soon as possible."

It was originally just a joke, but Zheng Tie didn't expect that Rick Pitino seemed to think seriously for a while before saying: "If this is one of your requirements for coming to Kentucky, I can agree to it."

ha?
I?
Sir, this...don't do it! ! !

I spent money to come in, it's not easy.

Don't make me just pack up and go home.

Seeing the arrogant white assistant in front of him, his aura suddenly faded, and he even looked at Zheng Tie for help. Seeing this, Zheng Tie became a little funny: "No, that's not what I meant at all. My words are still the same, old man , I'm not going to play in the NCAA."

"But with your current strength and your identity as an oriental, I don't think it's a wise move to enter the NBA directly." Rick Pitino obviously really wanted Zheng Tie, but unfortunately...

The NCAA's attraction to Zheng Tie is really not enough.

"The main reason is that I'm in the NCAA, and my leveling is too slow." Zheng Tie shrugged and said: "Otherwise, it is said that the University of Kentucky's Dayan horse, um, the girl is still very hot, and I can't think about it at all."

The second half of the sentence was directly ignored by Rick Pitino. He has been coaching for so long and knows that geniuses have genius personalities. He doesn't care about this. He only cares about whether he can get it.

Moreover, what does it mean to be too slow in NCAA leveling?
You've gone too far.

That's the NCAA, the NCAA where many superstars have played. You actually said that leveling is too slow?
"Zheng~ you..."

"I'm sorry, thank you for the invitation, old man. I will remember the first person who comes to show appreciation." Zheng Tiedao: "We Easterners all have the virtue of gratitude. We don't need to believe in God."

"If you want to come to the NBA in the future, I won't be able to make my team meet your needs."

It's okay to talk to Xiao Antai, but to a powerful coach from a famous NCAA school, it's completely...

Shocked Rick Pitino.

He suddenly felt that his little assistant had something to say...

Well, maybe there's nothing wrong with that.

This guy is really one of the most arrogant people he has ever seen in his life.

Even better than the "Steak Philly Boy" who walked out of here last year.

……

Half an hour passed quickly. As the referee blew his whistle, the training camp, which had just been a loose atmosphere, suddenly became concentrated.

Only the middle half was cleared out, waiting for this year's dark horse protagonists.

Appear one by one.

Some savvy reporters have quickly written down the headlines that will be published when they go back in their shorthand notebooks:
The theme of this year’s ABCD training camp is just one word.

Battle of the Dark Horse.

One is from Auburndale High School, and the other is more magical, a yellow-skinned Oriental from the other side of the ancient ocean.

This year's ABCD training camp will definitely have more topics than almost all previous ones.

Of course, there is also the "Iron God Roulette" as always.

Number of irons struck - 1.

Oh My God.

Looks like my luck is quite strong.

If you hit McGrady too much, you won't be able to hit this ball.

"So, are you ready to face failure? Zheng~ It's already amazing that you can get here, enough to impress me."

"Tramp McGrady, why do I need you to look at me with admiration? Aren't you the same low-end player as me before?" Zheng Tiedao: "Also, I came here to debut in the C position. Since you want to stop me, then I Even you..."

"Cut together."

"Let you be my 'ghost under the ball' with them."

"Very good, Zheng, that's what I mean too." McGrady's eyes seemed to jump over the lightning, and he stood in the position of the attacker.

According to the rules of the training camp.

This kind of one-on-one bullfighting is a one-game system. If you lose, you have no chance to get it back.

And now McGrady is No. 2 and Zheng Tie is No. 1, so naturally McGrady takes the lead.

Tracy McGrady, facing Zheng Tie, suddenly took a step with his right foot...

Afterwards, it was as if the wind was flying fast, and it exploded in one step, and the whole person cleanly and perfectly threw off Zheng Tie's defense.

Nima...

So fast? ? ?
Zheng Tie was speechless in his heart.

Especially seeing McGrady's breakthrough and actually having skills, I felt even more "envious and jealous".

Tracy McGrady, overall rating is 61, 50 mid-range shots, 26 three-pointers, 50 physical confrontation, 49 strength... 85 running speed, 87 breakthrough speed, 90 starting speed, 89 bounce, 74 bounce speed...

The attributes of breakthrough and speed are frighteningly high.

However, the high school students in the United States are almost the same, and there are too few delicate skills. Basically, they still eat the body, but the body function is also a big selling point.

Especially in the 90s, even more so.

McGrady's style of play, at first glance, feels that the upper limit is higher and there is more room for growth.

Zheng Tie looks...too different.

Playing professionally, the biggest problem is physical function.

Many high school geniuses entered the NBA, but they did not play as well as their former opponents.This is... his upper limit is not enough, and his physical talent restricts him.

The key point is Xiao Tracy's skills—for example, this S-level skill, a breakthrough skill called "the fastest first step in the 21st century".

It can increase the overall breakthrough ability by 1 to 5 points, and there are two additional skill effects.

One increases breakthrough speed by 15%.

One increases the overall breakthrough ability by 15%.

With his attribute points, he is simply overbearing right now.

Especially in high school level competitions, it is not surprising that Odom, who is more comprehensive, cannot beat him when it comes to talent.

This ball activates this S-level breakthrough skill, "the fastest first step in the 21st century".Then put our Comrade Zheng Tie through a clean one.

Zheng Tie didn't even touch McGrady's hair, and the line of defense had already been penetrated.

Seeing that there was no one in front of her, little Tracy jumped up high and made a powerful one-handed chop, taking the lead in scoring.

The audience cheered loudly.

This scoring model is also the favorite among young Americans at this stage.

Strong, fast, jump high and dunk hard.

McGrady had it all.

McGrady also has a natural negative aura, the "First Round Curse" aura, but unfortunately now...

Zheng Tie couldn't take advantage of this at all.

"You are too slow, Zheng, passing you is as easy as crossing the road in the early morning." Here comes, with a favorite trash talk in American basketball courts in this era, McGrady sprayed it when he came over.

This era is still an era where trash talk is a glorious era, which is completely different from the brotherly basketball and civilized basketball decades later.

McGrady's barefoot height has now reached 2 meters, although it is not as exaggerated as the 206cm behind.

But it is also very high.

The wingspan is also more advantageous.

According to the rules.

The training camp is a cross-ball offense, one chance per player.If it were changed to the rule that one person can continue after a successful attack, Zheng Tie might be blown away by McGrady in one go.

This is also to take care of the presence of big men in the training camp. According to those rules, such as the three-dribble rule, the big men in the training camp will not be able to play.

Zheng Tie ignored McGrady, because he competed with McGrady at this speed, it was really...

Almost insane.

The man who is known as the fastest first step in the 21st century is not something I can be tough now.

What is talent?

Look at Tracy McGrady now, he is the epitome of talent.

Zheng Tie tried to attack, but as soon as he moved, he wanted to rush in, but the basketball disappeared halfway.

Not good, careless.

"Zheng~ Your dribbling isn't great~ Is that all you can do?" McGrady said, "Could it be that you really won Lamar by luck just now?"

forgotten!
McGrady's stealing ability is different from Odom's, it is much higher!The steal ability is also as high as 58!

It's too easy to make mistakes by rushing like this.

It is necessary to change tactics.

On the defensive end, McGrady was another three-threat, and then, the first step suddenly started, passing Zheng Tie naked again.

Damn~ so fast?
Even if I did nothing but accelerate in the past few months, I might not be able to keep up.

Damn it~
After Zheng Tie saw the abilities of these genius beasts, he even had doubts...

What's more, did they activate it themselves, or did they activate it.

They are all beasts.

2-0.

The sidelines were filled with cheers for McGrady.

Zheng Tie had no choice but to follow Liu Wei's original style of play.Arching his big butt, he began to walk in while protecting the ball.

There were bursts of jeers from the sidelines, but Zheng Tie remained unmoved.In basketball, having a cool posture is good, but the prerequisite is that you can win.

Otherwise, what are the eggs for?
Now that I can't take care of both, I can only choose practicality.

Zheng Tie wants to do the same as before, hit the low post, and then use the sky hook to fight McGrady.

But McGrady is not Odom.

Except that he was a peerless opponent in the playoffs, he was still very strong the rest of the time.Especially when the physical fitness can keep up, the sense of blocking shots is very strong.

During the Raptors period, he almost averaged 2+ blocks per game.This is completely impossible for Odom to do.

And now in this high school level confrontation, McGrady doesn't have much physical problems, that's called a...

Offensive and defensive integration ah.

McGrady seems to have studied Zheng Tie on the sidelines. When Zheng Tie and Odom were fighting, he began to study Zheng Tie's offensive routines and offensive modes.

Concluded……

In addition to not giving open three-pointers, the only thing he can do is that weird "sky hook".

Therefore, McGrady began to lower his center of gravity and fight with all his strength, making it difficult for Zheng Tie to squeeze in.If you don't get into the low post and take a close-range hook shot, your hit rate will not be good if you use the hook shot that day.

Especially McGrady's stealing ability is very good, he can't make a full force attack.

To end like that, it showed on the first ball.

Moreover, Zheng Tie's current physical confrontation is only 49 points, which is not as good as his opponent's 50 points.

The key point is the difference between 40+ and 50+, so Zheng Tie is actually a little against McGrady behind him.

The strength of the two is the same, both are 46.

But high confrontation is the representative of stability.

When they fought each other, Zheng Tie was at a disadvantage.

Zheng Tie didn't have any useful means to break the situation right now, the opponent could only see through and take precautions, but still chose to bite the bullet and do it.

"Zheng~ So you only have this level of strength. I'm really...disappointed!" McGrady was talking trash while fighting, but Zheng Tie really didn't squeeze in the ball.

See attack time is coming.

He could only make a hasty hook from mid- to long-range, and then, there was no doubt.

Suddenly hit an iron.

The sky hook couldn't save him.

Because of the basic ability to hook in the middle and long distance.

too low.

Without the foundation of basic ability, the skyhook can only be a "silver-like pewter tip", which looks fancy but not useful.

Rick Pitino also secretly noted below:
His hook seems to have an effective range and can only be used at close range.
If it exceeds, there will be no accuracy.

In this way, his hole cards have been completely exposed in the confrontation with Lamar Odom. Compared with the kid from Auburndale High School, his tricks are easier to be targeted.

There is no way to achieve the point where even if people know about it, they still cannot be targeted.

That game is difficult to beat...

With your trump card completely exposed, can you still win against a strong opponent who is well prepared?
"Zheng~ If this is all you can do, then prepare to go home." McGrady took another forcible first step and cut Zheng Tie clean.

Zheng Tie couldn't keep up, there was a bang~ sound.

This shows that the former staged a big dunk after a breakthrough.

3-0.

After McGrady landed, he looked at Zheng Tie with an arrogant look.

That expression seems to have made it clear - this year's training camp, he is the only dark horse king.

Call ~
Zheng Tie let out a sigh of relief.

He also finally understood why McGrady was able to fight from the tail of the crane to the C position all the way this year.

It's really scary for high school students to have this ability.

Right now, I can't do it at all.

So he brought up the attribute panel and threw all the remaining points into the strength attribute.

The remaining 200 points, plus the 100 points won by winning Odom, more than 300 points, all strengthen the upper and lower limbs and core strength.

Finally, I raised my strength from 46 to 48.

Finally, it surpassed McGrady in high school.

Then, he squeezed McGrady and started to do his back-up again.

"It's useless, Zheng, how many times have you tried... Huh?" Maddy's words suddenly froze, because he suddenly felt that the man in front of him seemed to be much stronger.

If it was him before, he could just be equal to Zheng Tie, or even have a slight advantage.Can block Zheng Tie 10 feet from the basket before time runs out.

Now, suddenly a little...

Seeing that McGrady didn't expect his sudden increase in strength and exposed a gap, Zheng Tie immediately seized the opportunity and rushed in.

Seizing the opportunity, Tian Gou took action immediately.

Basketball, hollow into the net.

3-1.

"Student Mai, I'm going home."

"If I win, I'll go home."

Zheng Railway.
