Chapter 244 [Enjoy Silky Smoothness lv1]: No pull-up, no layup!
Chapter 244 [Enjoy Silky Smoothness lv1]: No pull-up, no layup!
"Whoosh!"
Parker, like a sports car with its engine overheating, sprinted at full speed, trying to use his speed to get past Su Yan at the small forward position.
This would happen at the beginning of the season.
Su Yan really couldn't keep up.
Now that I have [Swiftness lv1], my speed has increased significantly, which, combined with my height and long legs, gives me an advantage.
Su Yan followed Parker.
Pure speed... Damn.
Parker wasn't surprised. He used his left hand to push the ball to the right front to mislead the opponent, then used his signature spinning top move once again.
fast.
It's really fast.
Even though Su Yan was mentally prepared, he was still a beat too slow when faced with Parker's spinning top.
Did I get rejected again?
Yes.
However... passing the mark doesn't necessarily mean Parker can finish the attack.
A beat too slow, Su Yan still caught up and jumped to block Parker's layup after Parker made a low layup.
Height + wingspan + explosiveness + terrifying jumping ability under the [Spring Man lv3] level.
Four-fold superposition.
Su Yan jumped back and arrived first, slapping the basketball away from the backboard just as it was about to touch it!
"???"
Parker's mind went blank, and he looked utterly incredulous. "I've completely blown him away, how... how can he still catch up and block me?!"
"There's a reason he's reached the top of the DPOY rankings!"
Duncan's expression darkened. He went back to the court and found Parker, reminding him, "Don't be fooled by his harmless and handsome face."
His defensive ability is very strong.
You absolutely must worry.
"understood."
Parker nodded emphatically.
The basketball was swatted away, but Wilson Chandler caught it and passed it to Curry for a fast break.
"The New York run-and-gun whirlwind!"
He sprinted to the left arc, stopped abruptly to shoot a three-pointer, but... George Hill was quick to catch up.
Curry doesn't stop the ball.
A bounce pass to the top of the key, where Wilson Chandler cuts in for a powerful dunk.
"We're not buying into that kind of whirlwind of speed and power, just like the sun!"
Richard Jefferson roared and chased after him.
"is it?"
Wilson Chandler, looking disdainful, drove straight to the basket and then... threw the basketball out again.
Right side arc top.
A step beyond the three-point line, Su Yan, who had followed closely, received the ball, and Parker followed in the same direction.
Or not?
it seems that.
"Wow~"
But Su Yan completely ignored Parker and, facing his close defense, forcefully fired a three-pointer.
The ball leaves his hand, and a three-pointer is on the line.
"Shh!"
Hollow hit.
"That jump was so high, the release was so fast, and the distance was so far, and the shot was even accurate!"
Parker was bewildered.
Even though he had watched Su Yan play several times in person, watching a match is different from playing a regular game.
These are two completely different feelings.
Only by facing off in actual combat can one truly feel Su Yan's power!
Everyone knows that "General Joe" Paul George is powerful.
Many people know that Chen Zewen, who has won 42 Streetball King championships, is also a formidable one-on-one fighter.
Looking at their individual highlights alone, both players are incredibly skilled, and neither is inferior to the other.
however.
When the two faced off in a real game, engaging in a high-scoring battle, George led the first half with a score of 51-6.
Only then can everyone truly feel the overwhelming power that NBA stars have over grassroots internet celebrities.
Three points! Three points! Three points!
Courtside.
Grandpa Bobo is growling.
He was clearly not satisfied with Parker's defense this time.
Tonight, the Spurs could lead by as many as 9 points at the start of the game. This is partly due to Parker's good performance and partly due to his tenacious defense against Su Yan's three-point shooting.
They forced him to attack the basket.
Then... Duncan and McDyess, the two big men, joined forces to gank him, trying to find out that he didn't have a strong ability to attack the basket with the ball.
This caused Su Yan's scoring efficiency to decrease.
The Spurs executed their defensive strategy very well at the start of the game.
Parker just relaxed; theoretically, he could have pressed even harder, and he probably wouldn't have been able to stop him.
At least... it won't make Su Yan's throw so comfortable.
Parker looked at Popovich and nodded silently.
In the next possession, when Su Yan received the ball again at the right edge of the penalty arc, George Hill and Richard Jefferson immediately double-teamed him.
Correct.
It was a double-team, a tight double-team, giving this rookie plenty of face and treating him like a superstar.
They stuck to him very closely, not even giving Su Yan a chance to dribble.
"Pounce so aggressively, aren't you afraid I'll cut right into your air lane?!"
Su Yan narrowed his eyes.
He passed the basketball to Curry on the other side, then took a step up, seemingly to shake off the two players and receive the ball again.
next second.
The moment George Hill and Richard Jefferson pounced on him like mad dogs.
[Swiftness lv1].
Su Yan suddenly accelerated and easily shook off the two of them.
But... the two of them didn't seem to care at all.
"Ok?"
Coach D'Antoni noticed something amiss on the sidelines: "The Spurs' defense is all about hitting three-pointers and letting Su Yan drive to the basket!"
It's not a fast break, not a sudden cut to the basket, it's a hard-core attack on the rim, which is indeed not Su Yan's forte.
Grandpa Popovich is still as shrewd as ever.
On the field.
Curry didn't think too much about it. Seeing Su Yan create an opportunity, he passed the basketball to him without hesitation for a second.
Su Yan rushed in.
Duncan and McDyess were both under the basket. Duncan stayed under the basket while McDyess pounced on him, preventing Su Yan from suddenly dunking over him.
One after the other.
Perfect fit.
"They'll just pinch me because I don't have any layup skills."
Su Yan sensed the Spurs' defensive positioning and intensity, saw through their intentions, and couldn't help but smile.
"If it were before, perhaps it really would have been possible, but... I have a sliver of hope now. I have [Indulge in Silky Smoothness lv1]."
Everything is different now.
During the warm-up, Su Yan did not practice the pull-up extensively in order to avoid being exposed, but tried it a few times intentionally or unintentionally.
Various silky smooth levers, jelly-like baskets.
He could do it all effortlessly, and he hit the mark every time.
In the recent game, although his layup didn't go in, it was just that the opportunity wasn't very good... that's all.
We should really ignore it.
He will have to pay a price for obtaining [Indulge in Silky Smoothness lv1].
McDyess rushed forward and positioned himself, not giving Su Yan a chance to jump directly and soar into the sky.
Su Yan didn't jump, his speed didn't decrease, he took three steps with the ball and drove straight past McDyess into the basket!
Duncan is under the basket.
Just what I wanted?
it seems that.
However... Su Yan took his third step and jumped, hovering in mid-air, dodging Duncan's large hand block.
A reverse layup with the back of the basket, high off the backboard.
Commonly known as: "Jelly Basket".
"Shh!"
hit.
Su Yan dribbled past four players and finished the attack with a "jelly layup"—it was incredibly smooth!
"wooow~"
In the commentary box.
Amy Johnson exclaimed, "Su Yan's layup was so smooth, so elegant, so cool!"
"No."
Kenny Smith was also quite surprised, "Su Yan did a reverse layup? And a very difficult reverse layup at that?"
This is rare.
Was this a lucky shot forced upon them by their subordinates, or a display of sheer skill?!
