The brutality of the NBA

Chapter 168, super challenge.

Fans and the media's evaluation of Xue Ding is seriously polarized.

Some people think that Xue Ding is a Kobe-style basketball fighter + model gentleman.

In the NBA, it is very common for stars to go to nightclubs, have sex, and gossip, but Xue Ding has never been involved in these topics, and his rest time is reserved for his family.

Now he is worth more than [-] million yuan, but he has not spread any bad scandals.

Excellent athletes have a fire in their hearts, and seeing their opponents is like seeing their enemies.

And Xue Ding and Kobe are the same type. Anyone who hinders himself from criticizing himself will be regarded as an enemy, and then he will practice hard to knock him down.

Those people think that Xue Ding is not the most powerful, but he is the most powerful. Xue Ding may not be the most popular, but he is the best at turning doubts and criticisms into motivation for training. Xue Ding is not the smartest , but he is the least ruined by cleverness.

.....
Of course, there are also some voices who have caught Xue Ding's walking lore, long possession of the ball, far more possession of the ball than Roy, solitary style of play, stats and other issues.

Therefore, the outside world's controversy and discussion on Xue Ding has never stopped.

But no matter what kind of controversy and discussion.

Xue Ding was selected as an All-Star in his rookie season.

Xue Ding is also very likely that his rookie season will become another NBA season after Robertson's average triple-double.

These honors cannot be questioned by others.

This month, Xue Ding has been absorbing the experience and skills that Curry passed on.

In addition to shooting, Xue Ding's dribbling ability has also improved to a certain extent.

Xue Ding is the NBA's starting All-Star guard.

Although Xue Ding was not as flashy as Irving and Curry before, his dribbling was also top-notch.

After Curry's integration, Xue Ding's first-class level has reached the top.

Not to mention anything else, just a small detail, the current Xue Ding can calmly receive the ball and make assists after breaking through at high speed.

For example, it is difficult to do a crotch behind the back and then pull a loop when playing golf.

Most NBA players can't do the high-speed crotch change, they can only reach out and shoot the ball back.There should be an action of sticking the ball forward and then pulling it back. You need to stick the ball forward with the palm of your hand and draw a circle to pull it back.

And Xue Ding can easily do this action now.

Xue Ding's physical fitness exploded, and the more explosive his physical fitness, the more he needed better basic dribbling skills to play.

The current Xue Ding is obviously very strong in the combination of man and ball.

This has a huge impact on Xue Ding.

Xue Ding's breakthrough style of play is not only a straight line attack, but also a lot of changes. Now he has a much higher probability of successfully breaking into the crowded inside lane.

Although Xue Ding's game is still not fancy, it is more efficient.

Whether to spend or not depends on whether Xue Ding needs it or not.

AI and Owen are looking for opportunities while dribbling, so their looks are more expensive, but it cannot be judged that Xue Ding's dribbling is not as good as theirs, it's just that their needs are different.

Xue Ding's dribbling allows him to rush in concisely, and he can play the ball when he sees a position, which is enough.

............... ..
2 month 1 day.

training hall.

Players must follow the training plan for a full-court match.

Seeing the sparse players standing together, McMillan felt a little miserable.

There are not many Blazers who can participate in the full-court match.

Xue Ding, Roy, Miller, Fernandez, Juwan Howard, Aldridge, Webster, Ayers.

A total of 8 people.

Also on the injured list: Oden, Przybila, Batum, Mills, Chandler and others.

Then Roy was still slightly injured...

McMillan sadly found that there were not enough people to organize a full-court match.

There were only 8 players. In desperation, McMillan took the assistant coach and joined the lineup of the match.

..........
The competition begins.

"bang"

"bang"

Xue Ding faced his head coach McMillan for the first time.

This feeling is still weird.

McMillan is 196 tall and weighs more than Xue Ding. Of course, his body is mainly fat.

The former McMillan was also a tall point guard.

He sent 25 assists in a single game in his rookie season. In the 1988-1989 season, he averaged 9.3 assists per game.

McMillan is equally good defensively, having been named to the defensive second team twice, and his No. [-] jersey has been retired with the Sonics.

他从1986年开始作为球员在超音速队当了12年的球员，之后又当了三年的助教，从2000年11月27日开始执教超音速，并取得了212胜183负的不错战绩。

McMillan's best performance was leading the team to a 2004-52 record in 30 as they made it to the Western Conference semifinals, where they lost in six games to the eventual champion San Antonio Spurs.

....
Xue Ding led the starting team to play against the substitute team led by McMillan.

In order to save face for the head coach, Xue Ding was also worried about his injury, so he didn't play much, and almost let Roy and Adelaide play the main attack.

Unexpectedly, Xue Ding's modesty provoked McMillan's continuous roar.

"Xue, you come to attack. This training is a tactical training based on you. How can you gain an advantage in the situation where there is no support in the training? You are the key, you have to attack!"

"What about your body? Didn't you always say that your body is an advantage, and you can even play a center forward? How come I don't feel the pressure?"

"If you can beat me today, you can play wherever you want."

McMillan kept prodding Xue Ding.

Seeing that the head coach was so excited, Xue Ding wiped his forehead instinctively. He really didn't sweat at all.

Roy quickly winked at Xue Ding.

Make him serious.

"OK!"

Xue Ding was ready to make some effort.

Substitutes attack.

McMillan dribbles slowly across half court.

He's a very experienced ball protector.

But Xue Ding went straight to the intensity!
Continuous physical confrontation.

McMillan dared not speak out. He personally felt the impact of Xue Ding in the point guard position.

This is the physical quality that point guards of his era did not possess.

He regretted letting Xue Ding use his full strength.

"Snapped!"

Xue Ding broke McMillan's ball with one entanglement.

"Whoa whoa!"

Xue Ding's reaction was a bit faster than McMillan's, and he took the ball and directly scored a goal.

Just when Xue Ding stepped into the three-point line and was about to start dunking.

"Beep beep beep!"

The whistle blew from behind.

Xue Ding looked back.

"wipe."

At this time, McMillan was lying on the ground clutching his right heel and rolling continuously. .

It turned out that after he was robbed, he wanted to chase Xue Ding, but suddenly exerted force on his right foot. As a result, his body no longer allowed him to make such a rapid acceleration.

"The Achilles tendon may be broken." The team doctor shouted.

"quick!!"

"quick!!"

"Going to the hospital."

The newly formed team doctors immediately called the player trainers and others to help, and rushed to take the stretcher, ready to send McMillan directly to the hospital.

Xue Ding also rushed to help.

…………

Wait until everything is busy.

Xue Ding and Roy went back to the locker room.

The two looked at each other.

Then they all showed wry smiles.

This is so miserable.

The head coach is also injured.

What's next?
