Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 348 Your future children will tell you, "Kogure dunked on you again!"
"Great!"

Staring at Kogure hanging from the basket, Ronnie Fields, who was acting as the temporary referee, couldn't help but show a shocked expression, which quickly turned into excitement at meeting someone like him.

Ronnie Fields is undoubtedly the king of high school dunking right now, and even Vince Carter has to temporarily give way to him.

There's nothing I can do, this guy is just too good at jumping.

Ronnie Fields' vertical jump reached 127 centimeters, which is a truly impressive figure.

Vince Carter, who entered the NBA, had a vertical jump of 109 centimeters.

Of course, Carter's ability to become a dominant force in the dunking world is not solely due to his jumping ability.

After the initial shock, Ronnie Fields unconsciously rested his chin on his hand.

He felt that Kogure's dunks looked a little familiar!

As the No. 1 high school dunker, Ronnie Fields enjoys studying highlights of famous NBA dunkers, such as Jordan, Dr. J, and Drexler.

"Why does this guy's dunk look like a glider?"

Ronnie Fields finally realized what was happening.

There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.

Without a doubt, Drexler's most distinctive feature in dunking was his gliding motion.

During gliding, the dunk's height hardly decreases.

"How can this guy be so strong!"

Meanwhile, Garnett rubbed his sore shoulders, his brow furrowed, his expression unusually grave.

He thought he could easily overpower Kogure with his weight advantage.

However, the reality was different from what he expected.

Although Garnett had a weight advantage, the difference wasn't significant; he weighed only 215 pounds (195 catties) in high school.

Judging from Garnett's height and weight ratio, he was not much different from being skin and bones.

This is also the main reason why Kogure was able to gain the upper hand in the confrontation.

It wasn't until he entered the NBA that Garnett's weight gradually increased to 110 kilograms.

Given Garnett's physique, he clearly has the potential to support more muscle.

However, while this would further enhance physical size and combat effectiveness, it would also lead to a decrease in agility.

In addition, excessive muscle growth can put extra stress on bones and joints, increasing the risk of injury.

Therefore, Garnett must find a balance between maintaining sufficient physicality and ensuring that his flexibility and coordination are not compromised.

"Come again!"

Garnett picked up the basketball and passed it again to Kogure outside the three-point line.

This time, Garnett dared not underestimate Kogure and was clearly prepared.

Kogure acted swiftly, unleashing his signature crossover step.

He first feinted to the right, then suddenly veered to the left at an extremely fast speed.

Even Garnett was caught off guard by Kogure's crossover step, and his center of gravity was clearly affected.

Garnett tried to adjust his pace, but Kogure's rhythm changed so quickly that he was almost knocked to the ground.

Kogure seized the opportunity and accelerated past Garnett's defense.

shuh~
Kogure drove straight to the basket and finished with an easy layup.

Seeing this, Ronnie Fields almost couldn't help but cheer.

If Garnett weren't his teammate, he would definitely be cheering loudly.

Garnett stood there, looking quite annoyed.

At the same time, he also had to take Kogure's breakthrough skills seriously.

Kogure returned to the three-point line and said, "Kevin, it's 3-0!"

"It's only 3-0. Give me just one chance, and I can beat you in one go!"

Even if you lose the game, you can't lose face, so Garnett naturally wouldn't admit defeat.

As everyone knows, Garnett's mouth is blessed.

Melon deeply agrees with this.

When Kogure received the ball again, Garnett changed his defensive approach, choosing to close in on him.

Unfortunately, Kogure easily overtook him with a burst of power.

Garnett was fast and agile, but Kogure was not only just as good, but even better.

This is the advantage of being small!
"So fast!"

Garnett was startled and instinctively turned around to give chase.

snort~
After breaking past Garnett, Kogure suddenly stopped, fully extending his body, and threw the ball toward the basket.

shuh~
The basketball swished through the net, creating a splash.

4: 0!

"Why hasn't this guy's title appeared yet?"

Kogure was a little puzzled; he had already scored four goals, but Garnett's nickname still hadn't popped up.

"Come again!"

Garnett took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and picked up the basketball again, tossing it to Kogure.

The moment he received the ball, Kogure instantly sprang into action.

Garnett was startled and quickly moved to the side to block, but due to the haste and lack of preparation, he was bulldozed aside by Kogure.

In the contest of strength, every exertion of Kogure put Garnett under immense pressure, as if an irresistible force was bursting forth from his body.

Garnett tried various methods, but Kogure always managed to cleverly thwart his attacks.

After shoving Garnett aside, Kogure attacked the basket again.

Garnett gritted his teeth, turned around as fast as he could, and gave chase.

In the blink of an eye, Garnett and Kogure had achieved parallelism.

Just as Garnett got close, Kogure once again chose to stop abruptly.

Garnett was prepared and reacted immediately.

However, in the instant he came to a sudden stop, Kogure started up again, passing him by.

shuh~
As Kogure scored another goal, Garnett couldn't help but feel anxious.

5:0
If this continues, he might actually end up bald.

In his recent one-on-one match against Ronnie Fields, Ronnie Fields did exactly that, except Garnett scored a point.

slap~
The next moment, Garnett first braced himself against the floor, then clapped his hands vigorously, his expression becoming more serious than ever before.

He had to stop that shot no matter what.

He didn't want to pick up the ball anymore!
After Kogure received the ball again, this time he used the "Kogure Kiminobu dribble," using his opposite foot to dribble past Garnett and once again shift his center of gravity.

Garnett had never seen such a breakthrough before, and was clearly caught off guard, even falling to the ground after being faked out.

He instinctively stretched out his right hand and braced himself on the ground, looking quite disheveled.

shuh~
Mumu broke into the basket and scored another goal.

6: 0!

"Fuck!"

Seeing Kogure score again, Garnett got angry and started swearing.

In the NBA, Garnett is also a well-known trash-talker, most famous for his trash talk to Carmelo Anthony.

Your wife tastes like a donut!
In a 2013 game, Garnett and Anthony got into a fight because of this trash talk.

Rumors circulated that Anthony not only forced his way into the Celtics' locker room, but also waited for Garnett by the Celtics' team bus after the game.

If they hadn't been stopped by security guards, the two might have had an even more intense conflict.

It's unclear who gave Garnett the courage to say those words in front of "Melo".

As everyone knows, whether New York is chaotic or not is entirely up to Carmelo Anthony. In the NBA, Garnett's trash talk is famous for its 'destructive power'.

To put it simply, his trash talk knows no bounds, especially his trash talk towards Duncan.

In the 1999 season, Garnett and Duncan met in the playoffs. As Duncan was taking a free throw, Garnett shouted at Duncan, "Happy Mother's Day! Give my regards to your mother."

As is well known, Duncan's mother died when he was 14 years old.

Therefore, Garnett's remarks were widely criticized by fans and the media.

However, neither of the parties involved confirmed the trash talk, but it has been widely circulated among fans and players.

After regaining his footing, Garnett noticed Ronnie Fields staring at Kogure with a suspicious look and couldn't help but ask, "Ronnie, what's wrong?"

"This is a very popular breakthrough technique in the NBA lately, I think it's called the Kogure Kiminobu dribble. Wait, Kogure Kiminobu!"

After he finished speaking, Ronnie Fields finally realized what was happening.

gudu~
Ronnie Fields couldn't help but swallow hard, and his gaze towards Kogure instantly changed.

Kogure Kiminobu is exceptional, but the breakthrough method he has been trying to learn recently is something he hasn't been able to grasp without anyone teaching him.

Garnett clearly understood as well, never expecting that the person he was challenging was the creator of 'Kogure Kiminobu's extraordinary skill'.

Thinking about this, Garnett became even more excited.

He plans to participate in the draft next year, and if he can defeat Kiminobu Kogure, it might boost his popularity.

High school students who skip college and go directly to the NBA draft often have very poor high school grades.

Garnett's grades were very poor in high school. After taking the SAT, he felt that college was hopeless and he could not participate in the NCAA basketball league. So he had no choice but to take a gamble and directly enter the NBA draft.

By the way, gOat's high school grades weren't ideal either!

During high school, gOat's SAT score was only good enough to get into a vocational college.

No wonder gOat only reads the title page when reading books!
Is it possible that he couldn't even understand the contents of the title page?

Soon, Kogure launched another attack.

This time, he once again unleashed the "Kogure Kiminobu's Overpowering Move".

The difference this time is that he chose the same-side foot.

Garnett was clearly unaware of Kogure Kiminobu's true abilities and assumed it was the same as before.

In this way, Kogure easily completed the breakthrough.

shuh~
Mu Mu scored another goal.

7: 0!

"Dude, crossing you is like crossing the street in the early morning!"

Since Garnett had used foul language, Kogure naturally retaliated in kind.

This quote from Payton is highly provocative and extremely damaging.

Of course, this trash talk is now synonymous with Kogure.

"asshole!"

Garnett's face flushed red with anger, and his fists clenched instinctively.

"Hoo, hoo!"

As a master of trash talk, Garnett quickly calmed down.

This is not a question of resorting to force, but a question of whether we dare to or not.

As is well known, Garnett likes to fight and retreat, always protecting everyone in front of him.

Kogure has reason to suspect that the author of "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" may have borrowed from his own original "fighting and retreating" style.

"continue!"

Garnett, barely suppressing his anger, forcefully tossed the ball to Kogure.

Upon receiving the ball, Kogure once again chose to break through.

Garnett is tall, has long arms, and a good jumping ability. Unless there is a very good opportunity, he should choose to drive to the basket.

Garnett was quickly broken through by Kogure using a Euro step.

However, Garnett, despite the discomfort in his ankle, forced himself to catch up.

The two grappled as they entered the paint, and Kogure jumped up and delivered a powerful reverse dunk over the defender.

Bang~
While completing a powerful dunk over a defender, Garnett was also knocked away by Kogure.

His fighting ability far surpasses that of Maki. In terms of strength, the two may be roughly equal, but Maki weighs less than 80 kilograms.

The two of them have a weight difference of 10 kilograms!
8:0
"Just how many breakthrough methods does this guy know?"

Garnett collapsed to the ground, stunned, gazing up at Kogure who looked like a god descending to earth, feeling utterly disillusioned and questioning the meaning of life.

Despite his best efforts, he was unable to stop Kogure from scoring.

Kogure released the rim and landed on the ground, looking down at Garnett and saying, "Kevin, your future kids will tell you, 'Kogure dunked on you again!'"

This time, he quoted Carter's trash talk again.

"Fuck!"

Perhaps due to his limited vocabulary, Garnett seemed somewhat tongue-tied, unlike his later prolific use of profanity in the NBA.

After getting up from the ground, Garnett glared at Kogure.

If looks could kill, Kogure would have been torn to pieces long ago.

Garnett picked up the basketball and threw it to Kogure again with force.

"Dude, you're perfect at retrieving balls!"

Kogure made another sarcastic remark.

"You've gone too far, I've put up with you for so long!"

Garnett stared at Kogure with a kind look in his eyes.

Whether through basketball or trash talk, he found himself at a disadvantage.

However, Kogure was not intimidated at all and instead stepped forward.

If Garnett hadn't started swearing first, he wouldn't have had to engage in a verbal exchange with Garnett.

The next moment, Garnett, enraged, shoved Kogure hard.

Kogure instantly lowered his center of gravity, his body barely swaying.

"Stop, stop fighting!"

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand and a conflict could break out at any moment, Ronnie Fields panicked and stepped forward to try to break up the fight.

But the two were almost touching, and he couldn't separate them even if he wanted to, so he could only stand by anxiously.

On this day, the sky was clear and there was no rain!

Seeing that Kogure was unaffected, Garnett, enraged, instinctively threw a right punch.

In the split second, Kogure slightly shifted his body, easily dodging Garnett's iron fist.

Just as Garnett's old power was about to be exhausted, Kogure did not hesitate to counterattack, throwing a powerful punch.

He used all his strength in this punch, which can also be called a full-force strike.

bang~
With a dull thud, Kogure punched Garnett in the stomach.

"Wow!"

Garnett bent over in pain, his eyes bloodshot, as if he wanted to glare them out of their sockets.

The next moment, Garnett slowly collapsed to the ground, as if falling into a deep, infantlike sleep.

This shows just how powerful that punch was.

Perhaps the punch hurt too much, for Garnett's eyes welled up with tears, and he was on the verge of crying.

Kogure's lips twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but tease her, "Don't cry, my precious!"

"An eye for an eye" is a trash talk Garnett used when criticizing his teammate Glen Davis.

This is why Glen Davis is called Big Baby.
