NBA: James wants to team up with me

Chapter 8: An unsolvable mid-range shot and a one-on-one win over Wade!

"I was careless and didn't dodge! Young people don't have martial ethics!"

Wang Chong muttered in his heart.

His outside defensive ability is actually not bad. After all, although Durant was never selected to the All-Defensive Team in his peak period, his real defensive level is no worse than players who have been selected to the defensive team all year round.

After all, just based on his height and wingspan, as long as the defensive end is a little more serious, the defensive efficiency will definitely not be low.

The most typical example is James, who has been selected to the All-Defensive Team five times. He has always been known for catching up on top shots. However, in terms of blocks per game in his career, James only has 0.8 blocks per game, which is lower than Durant's 1.1. Be low.

In fact, the main factor that really restricts Durant's defensive ability is physical fitness. Although Durant's physical fitness is not bad, it is obviously much inferior to those of Kobe and James who were able to play the whole game and walk like flying in their peak years. When the main focus is on the offensive end, Durant doesn't have much physical ability to defend.

Wang Chong's current perimeter defensive ability value is 67, which is neither above nor below. His speed and agility related to defense are 71 and 67 respectively.

Such ability, coupled with a height of 2 meters and a wingspan of 08 meters, can ensure that Wang Chong can maintain a strong defensive deterrent when facing most NCAA players.

But this definitely does not include Wade, the opponent's speed is too fast! Even though he had already had a meniscus removed through surgery, Wang Chong still couldn't catch up with the opponent's taillights. At such a speed, it is conservatively estimated that both speed and agility would be above 90!

Unlike basketball skills, playing style, strength, and confrontation ability, which will rapidly improve and grow after entering the NBA and receiving systematic training, speed and agility are talents that players are born with and are difficult to significantly improve through training.

In other words, Wade's speed has already reached the extreme before entering the league. It may be slightly affected by the growth of his body, the degree of systematic training and the difference in ball control ability, but it is not the same as that at the peak. The Flash of the period was hardly that different.

In just one round of attack, Wang Chong understood this deeply.

When Wade continued his attack with consecutive shots, he saw Wang Chong standing directly near the free throw line.

"Defend me like this? Do you think I didn't shoot?"

Wade raised his eyebrows slightly, took off and shot directly one step inside the three-point line, and hit the two-pointer steadily.

But in the next few rounds, Wang Chong still had no intention of defending himself. He just looked like he would kill me if he had the ability.

Wade hit three consecutive mid-range goals, and combined with the breakthrough from the front, he scored 8 points in a row.

8: 2.

The coach on the sidelines frowned slightly, and the other players shook their heads, especially Jason, who had deep conflicts with Wang Chong, and laughed happily.

"This guy, when he saw that he couldn't beat him, he immediately defeated him. How dare he challenge Wade in a duel at this level? How embarrassing!"

The buzz on the sidelines gradually grew louder, but Wang Chong remained unmoved.

He knows very well that 90% of Wade's strength is based on holding the ball to break through and attack the basket. Although he has a basket in the mid-range, it is by no means his main weapon. Otherwise, after his speed dropped sharply due to the impact of a knee injury, Wade Germany's condition will not decline so quickly.

Without injuries, or when injuries have not affected his speed and explosiveness, the Flash is a super scorer who can average 30+ points per game. But without the speed he relies on for survival, the offense starts to rely more on mid-range. After focusing on jump shots, Wade can only be an ordinary star who can barely reach 20+ points. Although he is better than most players in the league, he has fallen below the standard of a first-line star.

This is true even for Wade who has been in the league for many years and has already mastered his skills. Not to mention Wade who has not yet entered the league and whose skills are quite immature.

Wang Chong didn't believe Wade's long two-pointers could consistently hit.

He made the right bet.

"哐——!"

Wade's fourth mid-range shot finally missed the basket, and the ball returned to Wang Chong's hands.

<divclass="contentadv"> A lesson learned. This time, Wang Chong did not ask Dadi to use his behind-the-back fadeaway jumper, which he was not good at. Instead, he arched his back to the left and right of the free throw line. Turn around and face the basket, bend your knees and take off to shoot.

Wang Chong's preparations were very sufficient, so his movements were relatively slow. Wade easily judged Wang Chong's intention and jumped up early to try to block the shot.

But when Wang Chong was shooting, Wade, who was jumping with all his strength, found that he had no way to effectively interfere with Wang Chong.

Wang Chong is too tall, and not only his height and wingspan, his shooting point is also very high.

Wade could only watch helplessly as Wang Chong threw the basketball toward the basket, and then the basketball hit the net.

The two seemed to have swapped identities. Previously, it was Wade who kept scoring mid-range shots, but now it was Wang Chong.

The difference is that Wang Chong didn't defend Wade's shot at all because he was afraid that Wade would break through and pass him as soon as he came out of the paint.

Wade tried his best to defend, but the height difference made it impossible for him to guard Wang Chong's shot.

The melon-eating crowd watching the excitement on the sidelines had dumbfounded expressions on their faces, watching Wang Chong continue to hit one mid-range shot after another.

比分从8:2变成8:4，然后是8:6，8:8，再到8:10。

The two played an 11-point bullfight, which meant that if Wang Chong scored another goal, Wade would lose.

There was a sense of unreality among the players on the sidelines.

What the hell is this? Wade actually lost to Wang Chong in a duel? How can this be? That's Wade! Marquette University's Ace! A super scorer who averages 21.5 points per game in the league!

but……

"Shh-!"

The crisp sound of brushing the net sounded.

Wang Chong once again hit a mid-range jump shot.

12: 8.

He really beat Wade.

The coach looked at this scene with a look of surprise on his face.

Found a treasure!

Although I still can't figure out what happened during Wang Chong's one-month suspension, Wang Chong's progress is really visible to the naked eye. He is no longer the rough-skilled guy who can only rely on his height and wingspan. A blue-collar player who grabs rebounds inside and helps his teammates pick and roll.

Not to mention anything else, with this hand shot alone, Wang Chong is qualified to become the second core scorer in Marquette University after Wade!

Of course, although Wang Chong narrowly defeated Wade in the bullfight, the coach did not think that he was really stronger than Wade.

In this duel, Wade was actually careless.

He didn't expect Wang Chong's mid-range shot to be so accurate. The offensive handling was too hasty, coupled with the continuous shot rule, which led to the failure.

If Wade had not chosen a long two-point shot from mid-range, but had firmly broken through with the ball, Wang Chong would have had no chance at all, and the score would have been 12:2.

If just standing under the basket can limit Wade's breakthrough, how could Wade average 06 points per game in the 34.6 Finals and lead the Heat to defeat the Mavericks and win the championship?

Attacking the basket and creating killing free throws was Wade's best offensive method at his peak. Even though the whistleblowing in the 06 Finals is now controversial, Wade did not only play in one Finals. At his peak, Wade's average free throws per game could always be maintained at around 10, which was close to that of Kobe James, and he still took fewer shots.
