Chapter 216 Powerful Magic

After defeating the Clippers, the Lakers ushered in the Magic.This is the first game between the Lakers and the Magic this season, and it is also a game that truly tests Wu Di.

This season, the Magic once again strengthened. They signed former superstar Vince Carter from the Nets.

Vince Carter is known as "half man, half god". He is one of the successors of the basketball god Jordan, and he is the one who resembles the most at the beginning.

Vince Carter's dunks are better than Jordan's, and he's not slacking off on his training.He is constantly developing his scoring ability. From the initial ability to break through dunks, to now being able to shoot inside and outside, and even shoot outside the three-point line, Carter has also worked hard.

In fact, Carter had no choice but to transform. As a superstar, Carter only needs to keep dunking to dominate the NBA.But he was soon troubled by injuries. In the 01-02 season, Carter was in the running for the scoring title. When the injury was not healed, he forced himself to play and was injured again.

In the 03-04 season, Carter was seriously injured again.Various experts began to question Carter's sneakers, but in the end there was no evidence.Because the sneakers that Nike gave Carter back then were all the latest technology, it was impossible not to consider his protection.

In fact, according to Wu Di's guess, the reason why Carter was injured was because of a problem with his own style of play.The long-term aerial work overloaded Carter's body, which has exceeded Carter's ability to bear.Moreover, there were still many malicious fouls in the league at that time. The most famous black-footed Uncle Bao performed his famous stunt on Carter. Facing such malicious fouls, it is unreasonable for Carter not to be injured.

However, even after experiencing injuries, Carter still has a strong offensive ability. He reduced his offensive inside and strengthened his outside offensive ability.From a guy who can only dunk, he became an all-around player.

After the Magic signed Carter, their overall strength became stronger again.

Look at the Magic's starting lineup, Howard, Lewis, Carter, Matt Barnes, Jameer Nelson.

This kind of starting lineup is not much worse than the Lakers' starting lineup. Although the Lakers have the Big Three, it must be known that the Lakers and the old fish Fisher are lowering the overall ability of the Lakers' starting lineup.

In this game, Kobe and Gasol are still unable to play, and Wu Di himself feels sorry for such a magic.

But Wu Di can't be weak, the Magic's third position has been strengthened, but Wu Di doesn't think Carter can defend himself.Although Carter is stronger than Koglu, but his strength is limited, and he is still far behind in trying to stop himself.

Wu Di is so confident, Wu Di verified the source of his self-confidence at the beginning of the game.

Howard made a successful jump ball, and Nelson broke through Fisher and entered the inside lane, leading Bynum to assist Howard to score a dunk.

As soon as he played, Howard completed dunks with both hands, which immediately ignited the passion of the Lakers fans.

The Lakers have never been short of dunks, and Kobe himself is a dunker.Since Wu Di joined the Lakers, the Lakers have one more dunk candidate, especially after Wu Di won the slam dunk champion last season, Lakers fans can see a lot of dunks every time they watch the game.

As soon as Howard came on the court, he began to ravage the Lakers' basket, which made the Lakers fans very angry. They shouted loudly at Wu Di: "Duck one!" "Duck one!"

Some people didn't know why the fans shouted so much, but the big-screen camera quickly showed Wu Di, telling those who didn't know why, the fans were shouting like Wu Di!
Wu Di also felt a little bit. He took the basketball from Fisher, squeezed Carter away with his arms.As easy as Wu Di imagined, Wu Di went straight to the inside.Howard immediately greeted him, and had a back and forth attack with Carter who was following up.

Wu Di narrowed his eyes, it was double-teamed again!

But this double-team is much more clever than the Mavericks and Clippers.Few people from the Mavericks and the Clippers could stop Wu Di's power, so they used a stupid method and sent two people to follow Wu Di directly.But Magic is different. They actually used Howard's power to block Wu Di's progress, and then used Carter's speed to interfere. Both of them are taller than Wu Di. This double-teaming effect is obviously much better than the previous stupid method.

In this way, the Magic does not need to let anyone go; secondly, it is very difficult for Wu Di to pass the ball to Bynum, because Howard's body blocks Bynum.

From this tactic alone, it can be seen that the Magic has found a way to deal with Wu Di.Although I don't know how effective this method is, it is much better than the Mavericks and Clippers.

With strong players and a strong coaching staff, the Magic's determination for the championship has been clearly seen.

But can even this restrict Wu Di?

Of course not!Wu Di suddenly accelerated his speed, twisted his waist slightly, and rushed towards Howard sideways.Howard immediately adjusted his center of gravity, followed up, once again stood between Wu Di and Bynum, and continued to prevent Wu Di from passing the ball.

But Wu Di gently received the ball, put the ball in his arms, moved his body again, and moved the basketball out of Howard's sight.Where Howard couldn't see, Wu Di held the ball with both hands, his arms didn't move, his wrists shook slightly, and the basketball was passed from Wu Di's crotch with a swipe.

"Attention——" Carter saw Wu Di's movements and was about to remind Howard, but it was still a step late.Howard, who didn't see the basketball, put all his attention on Wu Di. He had already bullied Wu Di, stretched out his hand to support Wu Di's back, and made a posture to prevent a back attack.

The basketball swiped from Howard's crotch and hit Bynum.

Bynum was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect that the basketball would pass from this place.He hugged the basketball subconsciously, only to wake up when he saw Howard was about to turn around, jumped up and dunked the ball into the basket.

2:2 tie, both sides scored dunks.

Although the Lakers fans felt a little upset because it wasn't Wu Di's dunk.But after seeing such a wonderful pass by Wu Di, he still gave him warm applause.Now Wu Di's passing is getting better and better. Lakers fans now feel that Wu Di can inherit the magician's class, and more and more people support Wu Di's nickname of magician.

It's strange to say that Wu Di has more than ten nicknames, and each nickname is supported by some people. Now when the media calls Wu Di's nickname, there are many fights.Every nickname can represent Wu Di's technical characteristics, but none of them can cover Wu Di's ability, which makes everyone very worried.
