章 2: 2. Double tipping and dunking! Beasts haunt!
Early the next morning, Georgetown University coach John Thompson came to the campus arena early.
The selection of new recruits every year was a major event for the team.
As a coach, he had to take 12 points seriously.
It's just that before his arrival, there was already the sound of players training in the arena.
Out of curiosity, John Thompson didn't interrupt the player's practice, but stood in the doorway and glanced inside.
"Bang!"
The next moment, I saw a figure, hitting the basket with the ball near the center line, stepping on the free throw line, and instantly vacated!
The huge body unfolded perfectly in the air, and the difficult dunks from the free throw line looked so easy under his interpretation.
"Whoo~"
A good day starts with a free throw line dunk.
Luke, who did this snap with ease, let out a sigh of relief.
Turning around, I happened to see the stunned coach Thompson.
"Coach Thompson?"
He was stunned for a moment, then simply bent down and grabbed the basketball on the ground with one hand.
His huge palm was like a sucker.
The action of catching the ball with one hand was easier than pinching an ant to death.
"Luke.....Hobbs?"
Looking at the tall young man in front of him, Thompson came back to his senses: "You came quite early."
"I went to bed early last night and got up to have nothing to do, so I just came to train."
He was telling the truth.
The university dormitory in 1995 was really no fun.
He didn't dare to go to a nightclub or something without an acquaintance.
Can't you just go to bed earlier?
Go to bed early and get up early.
If you have nothing to do, just come to the arena to warm up in advance and prepare for the upcoming team trials.
"Well, it's right to train more. So, continue and perform well in the test."
Patting Luke's arm, John Thompson squeezed his muscles intentionally.
It's too hard!
With full shock.
John Thompson trotted back to the coaching office.
He took out a stack of data sheets and wrote Luke's name on the first page.
Easy free throw line dunks.
Strong muscles.
Body hardware visible to the naked eye.
And the quality of coming to the gym early to train.
Plus the team desperately needed a big man who can help Iverson share the pressure of interior defense.
A combination of conditions.
Luke, who didn't even need a team selection, was written on the 2-team roster by John Thompson.
As for whether he can become an official player, it depends on the performance in today's game!
As time passed, more and more freshmen came to the arena.
After all the personnel arrived, John Thompson took the team's coaching staff to show the situation of the freshman team.
"The team competition adopts the knockout system. Each game is 20 minutes, divided into two halves, and each half has 10 minutes."
"The half-time is 5 minutes, there is no coach, there is no rotation, and the audience is 5V5."
"Each team's attack time is 35 seconds. Only the player with the ball can apply for a timeout. Others apply for a timeout, and the ball will be exchanged."
"Both sides have two time-outs each, use them properly."
The team assistant coach Jenkins introduced the rules of the team tryouts.
In order to save time, a single-elimination knockout is always used for the team selection.
The first and second half are 10 minutes each, for a total of 20 minutes of game time.
If it goes well, basically within 30 minutes, a group of winners and losers can be decided.
"Coach, the kid whom you asked for, his game is over there."
After the teams are finished, the knockout rounds of each group will begin immediately.
John Thompson, led by assistant coach Jenkins, came to the knockout field where Luke was.
Since it was a single-elimination knockout match, the first round of the match was basically abusive.
It stands to reason that this should not be enough to attract the attention of the team coach.
However, John Thompson began to pay attention to him from the first round of knockout.
This surprised Jenkins.
What is the magic of this big man that can make Coach Thompson look forward to it so much?
Personal Relationship? He quickly waved it off.
Can he play 1-on-2 inside?
Or can you guard the basket and ruthlessly block the opponent's offense?
Or is the athletic ability bursting the table, and the one-stop counterattack is unstoppable in the frontcourt?
Either way, Jenkins felt that Luke was not at that level even though his body was different.
After all, having a perfect body doesn't mean you're the winner.
It's talent and ability that matters the most.
Or he may be a big man with an already mediocre athletic talent.
Jenkins just thinks:
Luke can have a good rebounding protection ability, even if it is a passing performance.
Game start.
Luke was undoubtedly the jumper.
Facing the opponent's center who was half a head shorter than himself, he took off easily and helped the team win the offensive ball in the first attack.
The team's point guard came with the ball and pulled it up for a three-pointer.
The essence of this competition was not a team battle, but an individual trial.
Who was so team-minded?
Taking the opportunity to perform on your own is king!
"DAUNG!"
It's a pity that this one's three-pointed dry pull, crisply strikes the iron, and jumps out of the frame!
At the basket, Luke's two inside players from the opponent's team settled early.
Their rebounding awareness was very good, which was recorded on the data sheet by the Georgetown University coaching team on the sidelines.
"Boom!"
However, it was not until the coaching team finished writing.
On the court, Luke, who flew out of nowhere, caught the ball from high altitude and bombed the basket across the opponent's two inside players!
Completion of interpersonal deductions!
"This..."
Jenkins on the sidelines was taken aback by the dunk.
Isn't this what he just said: inside 1V2!
And it's this kind of brutal 1V2 tipping and dunking!
Jenkins still hadn't responded.
Returning to the defensive end, Hobbs gave the opponent's defender a big cap during the help defense process.
The basketball flew out of the sideline and hit the ground to a height that even surpassed Jenkins' height!
Whether it was height or strength, the impact of this cover was completely full.
Guarding the basket?
Ruthless cover?
Jenkins was a little confused.
Not really, what comes to your mind, this kid will do it!
"Bang!"
Between thoughts, the situation on the field again.
The offensive player threw off the defense and entered the penalty area, and finally had a chance to score a layup.
As a result, behind him, he flew out again, stretched his arms, and grabbed the basketball directly from the air!
After finishing the cap, take advantage of the moment when all the players, including their teammates, were all dumbfounded.
Hobbs who owned the ball, advance the counterattack, and one-stop strikes the frontcourt.
Step inside the free throw line and take off the tomahawk!
35 seconds, 4 points, 2 caps and 2 rebounds!
His dominance on both ends of offense and defense made the venue lose its voice.
And Luke who had completed all this, looked at the N-faced opponent in surprise.
According to those basketball novels, I read before I traveled.
Shouldn't the current plot be about opponent players jumping out to provoke themselves and spraying their superiority or whatnot?
Why is the script wrong?
The provocateur?
Where is the legendary trash talk?
Opposite him, the five players didn't even had the courage to look at Luke Hobbs.
In their opinion, his level was not the same as their own.
This guy is just a monster!
Who dares to provoke this monster?
Are you tired of living!?
