Basketball trainer, I created a super giant

Chapter 55 He is the top scholar, it is normal for him to beat you up

The NBA's summer league has an old-school atmosphere.

These are often dilapidated stadiums, without the fancy electronic screens of NBA home stadiums, nor floors made only of North American maple wood grown between 30 and 40 degrees north latitude, but they win in simplicity and purity.

There's no need for stands, fans gather on the sidelines, just like watching a game at a nearby park's baseball field after dinner in the evening. You can watch the players deliver wonderful dunks up close, then cheer for them loudly, stretch out your arms, and even give them a high five to celebrate.

You can enjoy the most direct basketball happiness here.

"Don!"

Nearly two thousand fans crammed into the not-so-spacious Clark Center at the University of Massachusetts Boston. They were so excited that they cheered like an NBA home court, so much so that Connors had to get closer and shout at the top of his lungs so that Tang Sen could hear what he was saying.

He pointed to the court and yelled, "Bron has played long enough. The big man on Magic is making too many moves. I'm afraid something will go wrong."

A few minutes ago, Steven Hunter, the 15th pick in the first round of the Magic, was competing with Brown for a rebound under the basket. In an almost wrestling manner, he shook off Brown's arm as if to vent his anger, and his elbow almost hit Brown in the face.

The two exchanged a few words before being pulled apart by teammates and the referee.

Brown was a bit soft-hearted and walked away on his own initiative.

But Hunter still kept on talking dirty to Lai Lai, his anger still not subsided.

This rivalry should have started shortly after the game began, when Brown received the ball in the penalty area, took a strong step, and completed a slam dunk over Hunter's head in a posture that was almost like a dunk.

More importantly, by the third quarter, Brown had scored 21 points under Hunter's defense and had three blocks, two of which were given to Hunter.

He was completely at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Brown.

In other words, he was beaten to a pulp and became furious.

Tang Sen was about to speak when there was another exclamation from all around.

But it was Brown who was sitting on Hunter in the low post on the court. When he was slightly distracted, he suddenly turned around, passed by him, and then went straight to the basket.

He gained speed in one step and then leaped into the air.

Click, click, click!

There were a large number of reporters gathered on the sidelines, and when they saw Brown's actions, many reporters almost instinctively pressed the shutter button.

Amidst the interlaced flashes of light, Wizards guard Courtney Alexander flicked the ball towards the basket with perfect timing.

Alley-oop!

Brown stretched his body, grabbed the basketball, and slammed it into the basket.

In an instant, the entire stadium was boiling.

"Brown!"

Many fans were shouting Brown's name in unison.

Although this was only Brown's third game in the summer league, he scored 22 points and 16 rebounds in the first game and 29 points and 8 rebounds in the second game. He has quickly become the most dazzling new star in the Boston Summer League and conquered a large number of fans with his performance.

"Forget it, let him be. This kid is holding back a lot of anger."

Looking at Brown who pulled the basket up before landing, then pounded his chest and yelled, Tang Sen sighed.

A week ago, when Brown learned that the Wizards had allowed him to play in the summer league, he was certain that Jordan really intended to trade him.

He didn't say anything, but just trained harder.

Tang Sen could feel that this kid was angry.

In fact, if I were him, I would also be angry.

I didn't do anything wrong, but in the end, Jordan bullied and despised me, and he even planned to trade me.

Who wouldn't be angry?

Brown has a softer personality, but that doesn't mean he won't get angry.

He didn't dare to provoke Jordan like Tang Sen did. All he could do was remember what Tang Sen said and respond to the insults with hard work and better performance.

Don’t you think I’m not good enough? Then let me show you how good I can be.

So when the summer league started, Brown was particularly excited, holding his breath and playing very hard.

"what?"

Connors didn't hear what Tang Sen said at all.

"I said……"

Seeing his reaction, Tang Sen was too lazy to say anything.

Tang Sen knew what Connors was worried about. He was afraid that if he hit too hard, he would arouse the jealousy of his opponent, and then his movements would become more and more violent, and he might get injured.

There is such a risk, but Tang Sen thinks it is okay because Brown has a great advantage in physical confrontation.

Steven Hunt is 2.13 meters tall and weighs just over 100 kilograms.

He's a lot lighter than Chandler.

Chandler was easily beaten by Brown, so Hunter is no match for him in terms of physical confrontation. In the case of complete physical superiority, the risk of injury is actually even smaller.

There are two possible scenarios when players are injured.

One is that the flight is too high and the ground environment is too harsh.

Secondly, it is forced.

If you don't exert enough strength and try to complete the movement reluctantly, you are likely to get injured.

But if you can easily push your opponent away with just one exertion, and your opponent's push cannot shake you, you can seize the best position, make sufficient preparations to exert force, and complete the action, then it is almost impossible to get injured.

Just like O'Neal, he rarely got injured in his career, partly because of his huge physical advantages.

On the sidelines, Magic Summer League coach Johnny Davis called a timeout.

Hunter walked off the stage with an indignant look on his face.

He was beaten in all aspects. Not only could he not defend Brown, but his own offense also failed to open up.

Under the basket, Brown is like an unshakable wall, impossible to squeeze through, and agile. No matter how he attacks, he can always keep up.

So far in the game, 1 out of 5 is the best proof.

"Jim, you have to pass the ball to me, pass the ball." He took a quick step and complained to the team's point guard Jim Tuerson.

This bastard was only focused on his own performance and didn't even pass the ball to himself.

Jim Tulson didn't even look at him and just walked away.

I'm just a fucking Development League player, and I'm counting on performing well in the summer league to win a contract. And I'm still passing the ball to you. What am I thinking?

Hunter was already furious, and Tursun's disdainful look directly ignited his anger.

But before he could rush forward, he was grabbed by Mike Miller next to him.

"Calm down," Mike Miller warned.

But then his words of comfort ignited Hunter's anger again.

Miller said: "He is the No. 1 pick after all. No one expects you to beat him. Just do your best."

Miller, a sophomore and someone who has been through it, gave this reminder out of kindness.

If someone can be chosen as the top scholar, he must have something extraordinary. What else can he compare to?

Compared to this meaningless competition, it is better to think about how to play to your strengths and strive to gain the favor of the coaching staff in the new season.

As he spoke, Miller couldn't help but turn his head and look at Brown opposite him.

No wonder he was chosen as the No. 1 pick, his performance is nothing like that of a rookie.

Especially defense.

There was a ball before, when he was cutting to the basket, Brown actually rushed over to fill the position in the first time, jumped up, and incredibly reached his jump shot.

Although it was a goaltending, Brown's jump still left a deep impression on Miller.

The physical fitness is very good.

Coupled with his excellent confrontation and a good hook shot, Miller has a hunch that this kid will definitely make a name for himself in the NBA.

Hunter still wanted to get back at the situation, but there was no chance.

Although Johnny Davis did not express his dissatisfaction with him, the fact that he directly replaced him with another player showed his attitude.

Davis replaced him with another rookie, Brendan Haywood.

Haywood was the 22nd pick in the first round of this year's draft and was selected by the Cavaliers. The Magic then traded him from the Cavaliers for Michael Doleac.

He is heavier, at 120 kilograms, and taller, at 2.16 meters, with an amazing arm span. He is the shot-blocking leader in North Carolina's history.

Although he doesn't have many offensive skills, his defense is very good.

After making the substitution and urging the players to come on the court, Davis couldn't help but look at Brown opposite him.

Brown's performance these days has amazed him.

Amazing athletic ability, excellent confrontation, and decent hook shot have already shown a bit of offensive and defensive temperament.

I even feel that I am stronger than the last time I went to the Magic for a tryout.

Especially the awareness on the defensive end has improved a lot.

"such a pity!"

Davis sighed silently. He knew that the Magic were just a little bit away from getting Brown.

Otherwise, such an excellent player should be in his team now.
