Basketball: Starting from the Rodman template

Chapter 62 McDonald's High School All-Star Game

The players on the same team as Woody are:
His "old acquaintance" Kendrick Perkins, not long ago, Perkins, who also graduated from high school, announced that he would also skip the NCAA as a high school student and enter the 03 draft competition.

It's just that his name isn't that big, so he didn't cause any commotion;
In addition, this year's "North Carolina Mr. Basketball" has just joined Wake Forest University's Chris Paul and the Minnesota champion Pugin High School's "genius insider" Chris Humphries.

The last person was Trevor Ariza, who was studying at Westchester High School. He was not so high in the ranking of "the strongest high school students in the United States", but he successfully received an invitation to the McDonald's All-Star Game by virtue of his explosive averages of 21 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 blocks and 3 steals in his final year of high school.

Woody's side is full of talents, and the lineup of LeBron James' pair on the opposite side is equally luxurious.

Inside are "Mississippi Mr. Basketball" Al Jefferson and "New Jersey High School Athlete of the Year" Charlie Villanueva.After the latter finished his final season in high school, he immediately announced that he would bring his talents to the NBA. However, before participating in the McDonald's All-Star Weekend, he changed his mind again, withdrew his submission of candidature materials, and turned around to join the University of Connecticut.

It doesn't matter if the inside line is strong, and Luhr Deng, a top high school student, is on the flank.

In the list of the "strongest high school students" in the United States, LeBron James ranks first, Woody comes from behind, showing the talent and momentum that threatens LeBron James, and ranks third...

This is the super rookie who was selected into the "Best Team of High School Students in the United States" by Parade Magazine and "America Today"!

This group saw the Goodman brothers on the sidelines smiling.

The McDonald's uniform team is still sensible!

Since the end of the Ohio State Finals, the Goodman brothers have deliberately avoided LeBron and Woody being in the same frame. Before several authoritative media invited the two of them to be on the same stage, the Goodman brothers refused without hesitation.

Especially after "Magic" Johnson became Woody's agent, this kind of invitation to be in the same frame was hung up as soon as it was mentioned, and he didn't give any media face at all.

Just kidding, can they still give Johnson a chance to make a fuss about the FMVP of the state finals?

In other words, this McDonald's High School All-Star Weekend has too much influence in the industry. For high school students, the greatest honor is to show themselves on this stage, which cannot be avoided.

So before coming here, they specially told LeBron James that they must beat Woody in performance!

They have prepared a large number of announcements, and it will be time to use it to step on Woody...

And the current situation is an excellent situation that the Goodman brothers have never thought of.

They are rivals to each other, and LeBron James' teammates seem to be much stronger than the opponent, as long as they win...

"Woody can only be a loser if he leaves LeBron!" "

"This Game Proves LeBron's Sacrifice! "

"Woody should really thank LeBron, otherwise he wouldn't be as famous as he is now!" "

……

Just for a moment, Goodman already had seven or eight news headlines that suppressed Woody in his mind.Thinking about the changes in public opinion at that time, he couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Another Goodman next to him looked at him, slightly dazed:
This is……

opened?
He knows that his bro has been having a hot fight with LeBron's mother recently, and often plays some perverted games.

but……

Not so much, right?

S becomes M?

On the court, LeBron showed his mature side, greeted everyone cordially, and finally gave Woody a big hug.Looking at his behavior, the Goodman brothers also nodded unconsciously. They hoped to see LeBron James show such an appearance.

"Come on for the game later, I have long been looking forward to our first match, let us contribute to a wonderful game together!"

Looking at LeBron's confident appearance, Woody nodded slightly, and didn't say anything, but he unconsciously murmured:
This is what you said you have been looking forward to for a long time, don't blame the buddies for being cruel~
During the warm-up time between the two sides, Woody pulled Perkins and the less-familiar Chris Humphries aside, and talked with the two of them so-and-so, so-and-so, and the two of them nodded unconsciously.

Finally, Woody patted the shoulders of the two of them again: "You two, this is a good opportunity to prevent LeBron James from dying. There are so many cameras facing him! Make a name for yourself, today is the day!"

A burst of encouragement made Perkins and Humphries even more excited.

Such an opportunity is indeed rare!
The referee blows the whistle and the game officially begins.

LeBron James looked at the excited eyes of the two insiders on the opposite side, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He always felt that those two people seemed...to be very interested in him?
"beep!"

The sound of the whistle broke his thinking, and he immediately concentrated on the game field.

With Chris Humphries hitting the ball first, the initiative went to Woody's side.

Chris Paul holds the ball for half court.

This is a guy with a visual height of less than 180, but when he held the ball for half the court, the breakthrough ability he showed caused exclamations from the sidelines.

The speed was so fast that the player facing him was wiped out in one step.

Villanueva intercepted a layup. He seemed to have expected it. He got close to the latter and passed the ball to Perkins on the inside with a pass without looking at people.

Perkins made an open shot to interfere with Al Jefferson.

The ball bounced out of the frame with a "bang".

球从篮筐飞出的那一刻，2米11的艾尔-杰弗森，2米08的克里斯-亨弗里斯、2米07的维兰纽瓦以及2米08的克里斯-帕金斯抢成一团。

Relying on a more solid chassis, Jefferson stuck in the best position. Jumping at the moment is also the person closest to basketball.

However, just as his hand was about to touch the basketball, a figure suddenly appeared next to him and swept the ball away in the "one-handed moon" style.

There was a louder exclamation at the scene...

It was none other than Woody who made his way out of the "four beasts" inside the forest.

The moment he landed, Woody's feet seemed to be spring-loaded, and he didn't need to store any energy at all. He jumped high and made a gesture to send the ball to the basket.

LeBron James rushed over and reached out to block the ball.

Goodman on the sidelines is ready to applaud.

Woody was flying in the air, but he changed the angle in a calm manner. His longer wingspan than LeBron allowed him to avoid LeBron's big hand calmly.

"Bang bang" sounded twice, the ball bounced twice on the basket and fell into the basket.

　Thanks for walking time, book friend 20221008122143973 for your reward.

　　It’s not that I don’t want to give rewards, but just don’t use some newly created 1-day and 2-day accounts to help me clear the list. I thank the brothers for their kindness, but it’s me who is easy to be criticized, and it looks too scary.

　　The second change, ask for votes! ! !
