Kapitel 101: Chapter 101: The Massacre (Part 2)
Wade Dong dribbled the ball past the midcourt line.
Kirilenko taunted Wade Dong, "Can you stay outside the three-point line for the entire game?"
"Sure," Wade Dong replied with a smirk, stopping near the midcourt line. "I can even shoot from here!"
"Go ahead!" Kirilenko spread his hands. "If you shoot from midcourt, I won't defend you."
"Swish!!!"
Without hesitation, Wade Dong launched a super long three-pointer, and the ball went straight through the net.
72:47!!!
The score difference was about to reach 30 points.
...
Yu Jia, "I've never seen such a crazy player!"
Coach Zhang, "He's on fire! He's on fire! He's on fire!"
...
"Actually, whether you defend or not, it doesn't matter," Wade Dong said confidently after shooting the three-pointer, not forgetting to mock Kirilenko.
"Am I too old for this?" Kirilenko muttered, "When did the league produce such a freakish player?"
This game had already lost its suspense.
Wade Dong played the full three quarters, and with 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score difference reached 50 points. Wade Dong enjoyed the cheers of the Chinese fans in the arena as he walked off the court.
Throughout the game, Wade Dong did not step inside the three-point line once.
He made 21 out of 32 three-pointers, scoring 63 points, just 4 points less than his previous game.
Moreover, Wade Dong's three-point shooting percentage reached a terrifying 65%!
"That was freaking awesome!"
Wade Dong was quite pleased with his performance tonight.
After coming off the court, he joked with his teammates, "Tonight, my three-pointers were unstoppable. Even Jesus couldn't stop me, I tell you."
"Hahaha..."
His teammates laughed heartily.
Zhu Gui said, "Today was an eye-opener. In all my years of playing, this is the first time I've seen someone not enter the three-point line for the entire game."
"Actually, I'm just a three-point shooter," Wade Dong said with a raised eyebrow. "Besides shooting a few threes, I can't do anything else."
"Ewww..."
This statement immediately drew a chorus of disdain.
The Chinese men's basketball team had already switched to their substitute lineup. With six and a half minutes left and a 50-point lead, the only way for the EL men's basketball team to win would be if Wade Dong switched sides.
"Beep!!!"
As the referee blew the whistle, the game ended.
117:76!!!
The Chinese men's basketball team won by 41 points against the EL men's basketball team, almost securing the top spot in Group B.
....
After this game, Wade Dong had practically become a god in the Olympics.
The Olympics had been going on for three days, and China led in both gold medal and total medal counts, with the gold medal-winning athletes receiving significant attention.
There was no shortage of news about the Olympics.
But for basketball fans, Wade Dong's consecutive 60+ point games in the Olympics, especially the second game where he didn't enter the three-point line and made 21 out of 32 three-pointers, with at least three shots from near midcourt, left fans with only four words to describe his performance: King of Kings!
It was too arrogant, even his own fans couldn't help but want to beat up Wade Dong.
...
In the preliminary round, the Chinese men's basketball team had three opponents left.
They were the AD men's basketball team, the BZ men's basketball team, and the host country E men's basketball team. These three opponents were relatively weaker, especially the next opponent, the AD men's basketball team. Wade Dong didn't even want to play.
So, in the third preliminary round game against the AD men's basketball team, Wade Dong really didn't play.
Before the game started, Wade Dong warmed up and still wore his warm-up jacket.
Coach Deng Hua was still a bit conflicted, "Wade Dong, are you really not going to play?"
"Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?" Wade Dong said disdainfully. "If the team can't beat such a team, how can we defeat the US?"
Wade Dong also had the idea of letting his teammates practice in this game. If his teammates didn't perform well in the end, he only needed one quarter to take over the game. So, Wade Dong did not plan to play from the start.
Especially since Wade Dong didn't like the AD country much.
"Guo Qi, in this game, you'll be matched up against Bogut. You better dominate him!" Wade Dong instructed before the game, "If you don't dominate him, just get the hell out of the national team."
Guo Qi rolled his eyes, "Whether I leave the national team or not, it's not up to you."
"Wade Dong decides," Coach Deng Hua suddenly said. "As long as I'm in the national team, whoever Wade Dong wants to leave, will leave."
"Hahaha..." Wade Dong grinned, "Coach Deng, with you saying that, you can rest for this game. I'll be the head coach."
...
The game began.
Chinese Men's Basketball Starting Lineup: Chen Jiang, Yi Nan, Guo Qi, Wang Da Peng, Zhu Gui.
AD Men's Basketball Starting Lineup: Mills, Bayless, Bogut, Gibson, Baynes.
Wade Dong did not play. He stood on the sidelines, but he took off his warm-up jacket and put on Coach Deng Hua's suit.
Li Jiajia was in Beijing watching the live broadcast with Wade Dong's parents. Seeing Wade Dong's mismatched outfit, she rolled her eyes and said, "His fashion sense is really not great."
"I don't have such a son!" Qi Juan wanted to cover her face, "This game is being broadcast worldwide, how can he wear a suit over his jersey?"
...
In the broadcast booth.
Yu Jia, "Wade Dong is not playing in this game?"
Coach Zhang, "It looks that way. Wang Da Peng is starting in place of Wade Dong."
Yu Jia, "Why is that?"
Coach Zhang, "It probably isn't an injury. You can see Wade Dong standing on the sidelines in a suit, chatting with Coach Deng Hua."
Yu Jia, "Wearing a suit over a jersey, this fashion sense... is really not something to be admired."
Coach Zhang, "Fashion sense aside, I think I know why Wade Dong is not playing."
Yu Jia, "What's the reason?"
Coach Zhang, "He just doesn't respect the AD men's basketball team. He thinks we can win without him."
...
The game began!
Although Wade Dong was not on the court, the Chinese men's basketball team had gained strong confidence from the first two games.
Right from the start, Chen Jiang attacked the basket, scoring a 2+1 against Bogut's defense.
"That's the way, keep playing like that!" Wade Dong stood on the sidelines, encouraging Chen Jiang with very polite language after his attack.
"Swish!!!"
Chen Jiang made the free throw, and the score was 3:0!
The Chinese men's basketball team had a good start.
It was the AD men's basketball team's turn to attack. The ball went to Bogut, and Wade Dong shouted to Guo Qi, "Don't fall for his fakes. He won't shoot. He'll drive from your left. Block him!"
"Slam!"
Bogut drove from the left and was blocked by Guo Qi!
"That's the way, keep playing like that!" Wade Dong continued to shout from the sidelines. The Chinese fans in the front row who could hear him were stunned.
