Chapter 6: Doncic was stunned after flirting with the female referee.
Chapter 6: Doncic was stunned after flirting with the female referee.
Trey Burke didn't see clearly how Wang Xiucheng got there, but Mavericks head coach, 75-year-old Hall of Famer, and legendary point guard Jason Kidd saw it very clearly.
The Chinese man first made a move to break through to the right, then pulled the basketball back between his legs, dribbled it twice behind his back, and then the basketball passed through Trey Burke's legs.
Wang Xiucheng's dribbling breakthrough was very fast, but there are quite a few people in the NBA who can do that speed, and players like Kyrie Irving can do it even faster.
There are also many slow players in the NBA who rely entirely on feints to get past their opponents, such as Doncic, Jason Kidd's own protégé, who is a prime example.
But Wang Xiucheng is neither of those types of players.
Kidd could see clearly that Wang Xiucheng had changed speed three times during his dribbling.
Furthermore, during the dribbling and speed change, Wang Xiucheng also made two feints: once during his first feint drive and again during his behind-the-back dribble.
What Kidd couldn't understand, and even found terrifying, was that Wang Xiucheng's dribbling speed and the speed of his feints were completely out of sync, and the two could even change speeds independently!
It's like dribbling and feinting are done by two separate players!
Kidd felt a chill run down his spine, and even the hairs on his body stood on end!
He'd never seen a player like this before!
Never! Never!
Trey Burke was shaken and fell to the ground, which Kidd felt was entirely justified.
Trey Burke was so shaken that his upper and lower body were no longer on the same center of gravity.
If Trebock insists on not falling, his ankle, which has borne immense force, will have nowhere to release the twisting gravity from his body, resulting in a broken ankle!
Wang Xiucheng, who is able to perform this set of movements, also needs to withstand the extreme changes in gravity caused by rapid changes in direction.
If Wang Xiucheng didn't have a healthy body, he would have broken his ankle first.
Kidd wasn't the only one to spot the problem; Doncic did too.
For the first time, Doncic, who was out of sorts throughout the game, showed fighting spirit in his eyes hidden behind a towel!
I thought the Rockets were a bad team, and they really were, but not all the Rockets players were bad.
How come a player like this can only play in garbage time on the Rockets, a team that's tanking?
"Does he have some fatal flaw? Shooting? Defense? Or stamina?" Doncic wondered, his gaze fixed on Wang Xiucheng, trying to find the answer.
Wang Xiucheng had already reached the frontcourt, and Josh Green abandoned Martin and rushed over to defend Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng slowed down, seemingly giving up on continuing his breakthrough, but the next moment, he raised his hand high.
The basketball flew high towards the hoop.
Josh Green turned his head and saw a red figure leap high into the air, intercept the basketball with one hand, and then slam it into the basket.
Bang!
beep!
There was a moment of silence before the referee blew the whistle, indicating a foul.
Instantly, the crowd came to life, with Rockets fans and the bench erupting in cheers.
Martin, who had just dunked, pounded his chest and then turned around to give Wang Xiucheng a high-five.
Doncic looked at Wang Xiucheng with a smile on his face and asked, "Your passing ability is fine, so what's the problem?"
Kidd called out to Trey Burke, who had just recovered from his shock, whispered a few words to him, and patted him on the shoulder.
In the Penguin Live room, the screen was already flooded with comments.
"Just tell me, isn't that dribbling skill amazing? Who else can compare?"
"I came from the main live stream. If you don't understand, could you ask which one is a Chinese player?"
"Silas, you've ruined China!!!"
"I strongly urge that Wang Xiucheng be recruited into the national team. What the hell are those Guo Ailun, Zhao Rui, and Xu Jie? Can they even play point guard?"
"That's right, they're not very strong, but they all have bigger tempers than anyone else."
"They came from the Juejin live stream. Wang Meng said there were Chinese people there. Where are they?"
"To be honest, with Wang Xiucheng's ball control skills and passing vision, our national team won't have to worry about the number one position for the next fifteen years."
"Xiaoqi said the Houston Rockets have a Chinese player, and he's very handsome. Which one is it?"
"Yao Ming is here to watch the game! Yao Ming is here to watch the game! Yao Ming is here to watch the game!"
……
Flight route center.
Martin was pulled while dunking, earning him an extra free throw.
Everyone's attention is on Martin's free throws.
Wang Xiucheng was originally standing outside the three-point line, but now he slowly walked towards the sidelines.
Of the three referees in this match, the only female referee, Lauren Holtkamp, was standing there.
Lauren, holding a whistle, sensed someone approaching and turned to look.
Wang Xiucheng stopped half a meter away from her, and a strong surge of male hormones assaulted her senses, a feeling she had never experienced before.
Wang Xiucheng said nonchalantly, "My birthday is December 24th."
Lauren frowned, forcing herself not to look at Wang Xiucheng, but instead looking in Martin's direction, but she still asked, puzzled, "So?"
"So, could you give me a picture of yourself?" Wang Xiucheng said in a low voice.
Lauren seemed not to understand and instinctively asked, "What? What do you mean?"
Wang Xiucheng said sincerely, yet somewhat shyly, "Could you give me a picture of yourself? That way I can tell Santa Claus what present I want."
Lauren was taken aback at first, then burst out laughing, and then shook her head helplessly, "Enough, don't do such a silly thing, I don't like men."
Wang Xiucheng shrugged. "You see, we have something in common. I don't like men either."
Lauren laughed again, then quickly left the man with her whistle, seemingly unwilling to speak to Wang Xiucheng any further.
But the smile she couldn't hide at the corner of her mouth betrayed her.
Kidd, standing to the side with his arms crossed, was so nervous that his glasses almost fell off.
Damn...
Kidd glanced back at Doncic, then at Wang Xiucheng.
The last player who dared to flirt with a female referee like that and not get fouled was Luka Doncic.
But compared to Doncic, the female referee Wang Xiucheng flirted with today was Lauren Holtkamp, a referee who could give the Clippers 5 technical fouls and 1 flagrant foul in a single game. Paul was so badly penalized that he didn't want to play anymore.
How could Wang Xiucheng dare to provoke such a referee and not even commit a single foul?
Lauren Holtkamp, who has come out as gay and is married to her girlfriend.
What does this show?
This shows that Lauren could never be interested in men.
So even Doncic doesn't dare to flirt with Lauren.
But this newbie actually managed to flirt with Lauren and get away unscathed?
Is this justified?
Kidd was becoming increasingly interested in this Chinese newbie.
Doncic looked at Wang Xiucheng in shock. "You're really brave! That's Lauren, who has a natural aversion to men."
Doncic did consider flirting with Lauren, but ultimately abandoned the plan.
He doesn't believe he's more resilient than Paul.
"This guy is really a fearless newbie out of ignorance."
At this moment, Kat Dennings, who was sitting just a few meters away, had a blush on her face and was staring at Wang Xiucheng with eyes that were practically drooling.
Wang Xiucheng had just been standing a few meters away from her, and the faint scent emanating from him was constantly assaulting her senses.
It was a scent that no other man had ever smelled like.
"Kate, are you alright?"
Kat Dennings' friend noticed that she didn't look too good and asked her what was wrong.
"Who is that?" Kate used her eyes to tell the other person who she was asking about.
"I don't know either. He's from the Houston Rockets. He's probably a rookie, but he's so handsome. I think he's even more handsome than Doncic."
"Yes, he's kind of handsome..."
……
The free throws have been completed, 110 to 93.
The Mavericks had possession of the ball on offense, but Christopher stole it.
Christopher, once he got the ball, was like a switch had been flipped, charging forward without hesitation. Once inside the paint, without shaking off his defender, he jumped up to dunk.
With a loud slap, Josh Green, who was following behind, slapped the ball away.
Christopher was slapped so hard that he crashed into the photographer at the baseline.
This displeased Christopher, who immediately grabbed Josh Green's clothes as soon as he stood up.
Josh Green didn't hold back either, grabbing Christopher's clothes in return.
beep!
The whistle blew, and the three referees pulled the two apart.
The other players also stood next to their teammates, afraid that their teammates would be taken advantage of.
The game was paused so the referee could review the video.
Wang Xiucheng was the first to return to the bench and sit down. He took a sip of water and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems I was right."
