I am Really an Insider

"Xiao Wei is really confident, but according to the latest draft predictions, he is not among the top 60."

Yu Jia looked at Wayne who was warming up on the court, and flipped through the materials in his hand.

In the latest draft prediction rankings, David Harrison ranks 35th, and Tony Allen, the highest-ranked Cowboys, only ranks 38th.

"This is the first game of the new season. Before next summer, the ranking of the draft prediction will definitely change drastically. Xiao Wei may not be in it now, but it may not be in the future. In short, let's watch the game first. "

Director Zhang didn't know what to do, he didn't know whether Wayne was a real person, or he was too arrogant.

While much has been written about Wayne in the past four warm-up games, rumors have swirled that he beat Wallace.

But there is no video recording of these after all.

Therefore, Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia had no way of judging Wayne's strength.

But what Zhang Weiping can be sure of is that the draft prediction ranking does not fully explain the level of a player.

There are not a few examples of countless five-star rookies who turned over in the end. Since Wayne can start in a traditional strong team like Oklahoma State, he must have his excellence.

Moreover, it is not difficult for Zhang Weiping to find that Wayne is still very popular with fans here.

You only need to look around casually to see many fans holding signs cheering for Wayne.

In this arena where strength speaks, if there is no strength enough, it is absolutely impossible to have such a high popularity.

Both Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia were a little nervous at this time, because they had no idea whether Wayne would make them excited or disappointed.

But this kind of unknown made them inexplicably look forward to it.

At this point, the warm-up time is over, and the starting players from both sides are in their positions on the court, ready to kick off at any time.

Zhang Weiping discovered that Wayne's number in the Cowboys is also No. 11. From this point of view, there are two Chinese players wearing No. 11 in the American basketball world, and they need to pay attention.

When David Harrison of the Buffaloes enters the middle circle, you will find that he is perhaps the player who best fits the name "Buffalo".

That guy looks outrageous, his physique is not at the same level as the others.

Cowboys starting center Holmes in front of him, seems to have become smaller in an instant.

Not to mention Wayne, Harrison's big arms are as thick as Wayne's legs.

Zhang Weiping gasped, this young man, what did he eat to grow up.

His figure, even in the CBA arena, would be considered fat.

"Is this really a college player?" Beside Zhang Weiping, Yu Jia's eyes were staring straight.

Although I know that the NCAA is the high-quality talent pool of the NBA, I am still a little surprised to see a university grow like this.

Not only because he is strong, but also because Harrison has a big beard at a young age

This is too mature, right? It looks like there should be thirty or so.

"Many NCAA players actually have the ability to play professionally. Look at these years, there are quite a few high school students who have directly entered the NBA." Zhang Weiping was sweating for Wayne at this time.

Although Wayne and Harrison are not directly facing each other, they are both inside players after all, and they will inevitably meet together.

Not sure how Wayne can overcome such a huge size gap.

The referee blew his whistle, and the regular season of the 2003-04 Big 12 League officially started.

The 2.13-meter David Harrison easily won the first attack for the Buffaloes.

Subsequently, Harrison ran unhurriedly to the frontcourt.

The Buffaloes seemed to be waiting for Harrison to settle down, so the tempo was extremely slow.

In this day and age, one-to-one positional warfare is the mainstream.

Harrison sat on the inside, and his big hunk of meat went to the penalty area, and Holmes couldn't push it.

Easily, Harrison was on position and received a pass from his teammate.

Holmes directly chose the top defense. Although it is easy for the opponent to turn around and break through this way, at least he can withstand the impact.

However, Harrison hasn't chiseled in as hard as one might think. I saw him turning around and hooking flexibly, and scored the ball easily.

"It's too stable. He not only has a body, but also has solid low-post offensive skills." Yu Jiaqing couldn't help applauding, even though he put himself on Wayne's side.

But Harrison's goal just now was indeed beautiful.

With size, strength and skill, it's no wonder Harrison ranks in the top 40.

"Don't worry, take your time. Play steadily and don't make mistakes!" Old Sutton began to shout while dancing on the sidelines.

After just one round of the game, Sutton could no longer sit still.

This will not happen in the first four warm-up games.

This is the difference between the regular season and the warm-up match.

Subsequently, Tony Allen swayed his opponent on the right side and bravely broke through the inside.

His impact is very strong. Generally speaking, as long as Mr. Tony breaks through, it is basically equivalent to a defensive failure.

But this time, Harrison's meaty mountain made up defense to the basket in time.

Instead of jumping, he raised his arms high and waited for Tony Allen to hit him.

Tony Allen faced Harrison and forced a layup, but Harrison's weight and strength were too strong, and he was stunned to bear the impact.

It is indeed the strongest meat shield in the Big Twelve League.

On the contrary, Tony Allen was a little overwhelmed, and his movements were completely deformed after the collision.

Although he finally threw the basketball reluctantly, he missed.

"The offense failed. The Buffaloes' inside defense is really strong!" Doug Gottly, the Queen's commentator for the Cowboys, slammed his fist on the commentary platform.

In the previous four warm-up games, it was impossible for you to see Tony Allen so strenuous.

"They were very passive from the very beginning, and the opponent's center is really strong." Yu Jia's palms were sweating, and the atmosphere of the scene was no worse than that of the NBA.

"This shot is unreasonable. It should be shot directly." Zhang's guidance quotations couldn't be suppressed.

After completing the defense, the Buffaloes were not in a hurry to counterattack, and were still slowly reorganizing.

It seems that the Buffaloes are going to kill Harrison today.

This time, Harrison continued to actively ask for the ball inside.

But Holmes gave Harrison a great obstacle, almost in a state of half-circling forward.

Seeing this situation, the Buffalo point guard gave up passing the ball and chose to use the screen to break through.

John Lucas' ability to go around screens is poor, which Wayne knew in the confrontation training in the past period of time.

So seeing the opponent break through through the cover, Wayne didn't hesitate, and directly switched to the past.

But this guy was so fast, he slid past Wayne like a loach.

"Jason Carter broke through, and his speed is really fast!" Gotrie sighed, did the defense fail again?

At this time, Holmes was still entangled with Harrison, and it was too late to go back to defend. It seems that this is basically a breakthrough that is sure to score.

Jason Carter thinks so too, he thinks his attack is so cool this time!

Step into the free throw line, take off with one foot, lift the basketball high, and flick your wrist slightly.

Carter sent the basketball to the basket and was about to score his first point of the new season.

He was extremely proud at this time, and the Cowboys, who had won four consecutive warm-up matches, were nothing more than that.

The basketball thrown by Carter flew into the air, and then disappeared suddenly.

Carter waited for a long time but didn't see the basketball hit the net. He was stunned and only heard a burst of wild cheers pouring into the court.

After landing, Carter hurriedly turned his head and found that the basketball had fallen into Wayne's hands.

Jason Carter: ? ? ?

Before the Buffalo players could react, Wayne made a long pass from the backcourt and sent the ball to Graham, who was already actively advancing.

Watching Graham dunk in an empty half, Jason Carter didn't even know what happened.

He saw all the Cowboys fans screaming and his teammates opening their mouths in disbelief.

Wayne waved his arm vigorously, then smiled at Carter, who was only 1.81 meters tall.

"Hey, congratulations buddy, your breakthrough just now must have scored top ten goals."

Since the last time he spammed Wallace deliberately to provoke Wallace, Wayne liked the feeling of trash talking with his opponent.

So this time, he didn't miss the opportunity to exhale the fragrance.

By the way, you can also let this short defender know that the three-second zone is not a place where you can come whenever you want.

At this time, the big screen at the scene began to replay the scene just now, and Carter knew what he had experienced.

It turned out that after he used the cover to break through just now, Wayne did not give up the defense, but chased after him.

Although Wayne's light weight made him suffer in confrontation, it also gave him a decent moving speed for his height.

When Carter took off for a layup, Wayne also jumped up almost at the same time, covering Carter from behind.

Then, the most exciting scene came.

Relying on his height and wingspan, Wayne abruptly grabbed the basketball that Carter threw into the air!

A shot-blocking ability of 75 may not be able to trigger a catch in the NBA, but it is definitely enough in the NCAA.

Carter looked at the big screen, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

In the stands, Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia also petrified directly.

"The timing of this block is really well grasped!"

"It's no wonder that he has previously blocked 8 shots in a single game. Wayne's height and wingspan are really outstanding!"

Around them, the fans were chanting Wayne's name frantically, so that they couldn't help but join the ranks of the fans.

Watching the game on the spot and watching it through a screen are two completely different experiences.

At the scene, any wonderful shot can directly bring out your adrenaline.

On the coaching bench, Eddie Sutton was extremely calm. As a coach, he can't be as patronizing as the fans.

With that ball just now, he saw other bright spots besides Wayne's block.

"Wayne's long pass from the backcourt is very precise. He can launch a counterattack directly from the backcourt. Did you see it? He found Joey in the counterattack almost immediately."

"Ah? This..." Sean Sutton scratched his head embarrassingly. He was also patronizing and scratching just now.

But what the old Sutton said, it is true that the counterattack just now was successful. In addition to the wonderful blocking, the long pass from the backcourt is also a must.

The old Sutton clasped his hands and propped his chin. Although Wayne is an unconventional insider with some flaws, there are too many other bright spots in him.

Perhaps, he really should give Wayne a higher tactical status and further tap his potential.

maybe

Can he be sent to the NBA?

When the Buffaloes were about to take off, Wayne suppressed the opponent's arrogance with a catch.

If Jason Carter wasn't black, his face would be as red as an apple now.

Being stared at by tens of thousands of eyes on the big screen at the scene and humiliating Carter again is simply embarrassing!

That Chinese striker was more difficult than he imagined.

After being caught by Wayne, Carter became much more honest.

He didn't continue to do it alone, this round he obediently passed the ball to his teammates.

Wayne's blocking has left a deep psychological shadow in the other party's heart and planted the seeds of fear.

Harrison continued to attack the basket, but this time his close-range jumper was regrettable.

The Cowboys immediately counterattacked, and after John Lucas dribbled the ball across half court, he directly found Wayne, who was standing outside the 45° three-point line on the right.

"I heard that Xiao Wei is very accurate in three-pointers. I think his positions are always outside the three-point line. It is probably specially arranged by the coach." As soon as Zhang Weiping finished speaking, Wayne raised his hand and prepared to shoot after receiving the basketball. .

The power forward of the Buffaloes rushed forward. Before the game started, the coach had told him: "Don't let that Chinese shoot easily from outside the three-point line."

As a result, when he jumped up to interfere with Wayne's shot, Wayne took the ball back and dribbled through!

"This!?" The head coach of the Buffaloes was dumbfounded. He thought Wayne was just a simple high-ranking fortress.

Unexpectedly, it was so flexible.

Although Wayne's current ball-handling attributes are not high, that's only relative to the NBA.

Wayne can still complete such a simple breakthrough action.

Seeing this situation, Harrison hurried out of the penalty area, ready to defend Wayne.

Wayne made an emergency stop at the free throw line and shot a jumper!

Drive with the ball from beyond the arc and pull up for a jumper? Yu Jia looked at the information about Wayne in his hand.

That's right, he's a power forward. But this style of play are you sure he is a power forward?

Harrison jumped up confidently. He had read Wayne's information. This guy was only 2.06 meters.

Under his own interference, he will definitely miss.

But when he got to Wayne, Harrison vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Nima, why do you feel that this guy is about as tall as me?

Moreover, this attack point is so high that it cannot be interfered with at all!

Can it be interfered with? Rasheed Wallace's straight-arm shot is so easy to block.

Seeing Wayne shoot a jumper against Harrison's supplementary defense, Director Zhang called out: "This shot is unreasonable."

But as the basketball went into the net, Director Zhang immediately laughed again, "But that's what we have to do!"

4 to 2, the Cowboys' No. 11 reversed the situation of the game!

Harrison looked at Wayne, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

Just dare to report 2 meters 06, so shameless!

The urban routine is deep, I want to go back to the countryside!

Wayne's blocks, assists and goals completely ignited the scene.

His goal is to be amazing from the first game to the last, so this is just a warm-up.

Seeing Wayne score, Sutton immediately made a decision.

To contain Harrison, it really depends on Wayne to carry out that plan.

Continuing with 4K, everyone, come and count the votes for encouragement.
