Chapter 115: Another Block After a Fake! Two Jumps for a Block! (Bonus Chapter 1)
"Permanent quest? A guaranteed kill for gold coins?"
Su Yan narrowed his eyes, somewhat puzzled.
The system then explained: "From this match onwards, the host only needs to score the winning goal before the match ends."
This will trigger a reward mechanism, resulting in a large amount of gold coins.
The types of coins can be money, items, or even... abilities.
Triggered immediately.
[PS: A game-winning shot feels good for a moment, but continuous game-winning shots feel even better!!!]
Su Yan nodded slightly, understanding.
"To put it simply, there's a reward for a game-winning shot. So it seems... I need to win as many games as possible."
And it's not just about winning games.
I still need to score the winning goal.
It's quite difficult, but... that motivates me more than a simple last-minute victory.
It's pretty good.
Surrounded by his players, Coach D'Antoni said in a deep voice, "8.3 seconds left, the ball is in the Nuggets' hands, the situation is not good."
But it hasn't been completely eradicated yet.
They are only leading by one point. If we foul them, even if they make both free throws, we still have a chance to tie the game!
If we make one of two free throws, or both free throws go global, the opportunity will be ours!
We have one more pause.
So... 8.3 seconds is more than enough for us to call a timeout and execute a tactical play in our half of the court.
even.
You can start by applying pressure for 2-3 seconds, and ideally, you should make a decisive steal.
That would be best.
Of course... you can only defend for 2-3 seconds at most. If there's no opportunity, you must foul immediately!
"Got it, coach!"
Everyone said yes.
Coach D'Antoni nodded and continued, "As for counter-attack tactics, with Su Yan as the primary focus, we should prioritize targeting him."
Next is Curry.
The Nuggets' defensive focus will definitely be on Su Yan, so if Curry has an opportunity, he should pass the ball decisively.
Both of them can be trusted even with a three-point difference.
"Understood, Commander!"
The players nodded emphatically.
The situation is really bad, but everyone has not given up and everyone is still full of confidence.
Then there's hope.
Not a moment.
Pause back.
The final 8.3 seconds arrived, a life-or-death moment.
in the audience.
Knicks fans clenched their fists, cheering for Su Yan and his teammates.
The atmosphere was very tense and solemn.
A female fan, eager for the Knicks to win, screamed: "Su Yan, if you can lead the team to a comeback victory..."
I'll reward you for free!
???
What kind of reward are you going to give? Tell me in detail!
Fans boldly expressing their love caused a great uproar in the stadium.
The crowd was surprised and moved by the female fan's blatant declaration of love, which eased the tense atmosphere of the match somewhat.
The Nuggets have possession of the ball.
JR Smith serves from the sideline.
He also knew that if the Knicks wanted to win, they would most likely have to use the "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy, and were preparing to look for Billups and Anthony, with Billups as the priority.
Carmelo Anthony has an 83% free throw percentage this season.
Billups has a 91% free throw percentage, averaging 7 attempts per game and making 6.4 of them. That's an astonishing percentage.
Once Billups is found, the position becomes very secure.
For the Nuggets, free throws are the worst-case scenario; if they can run out the time, they might even be able to score an offensive possession.
That would undoubtedly be the most perfect.
That would be a decisive blow.
Wilson Chandler stared intently at Billups, while Curry stood by, also watching closely.
Su Yan followed Anthony, while David Lee kept an eye on Kenyon Martin, Tyson Chandler, and Nene, constantly providing cover for their teammates.
At last.
Billups circled out, and JR Smith promptly passed the ball to him.
Curry and Wilson rushed in to try and steal the basketball from Billups.
JR Smith didn't hesitate either, immediately entering the court after inbounding the ball to quickly screen for Anthony.
"Bang bang bang!"
Billups quickly blasted the ball once, accelerated once, and then jumped up before the encirclement could be formed.
Pass the basketball out.
With a well-timed pass, Anthony managed to bypass Su Yan and reach the center of the arc.
People come and balls come.
Curry hurriedly chased after him.
Anthony had a chance to shoot a three-pointer, but he wasn't in a hurry. He waited for Su Yan's help defense to catch up.
A ground strike finds JR Smith on the right side, splitting him down.
If I don't shoot, I won't give the Knicks a chance to foul.
Billups cut to the left, shaking off Wilson, and Curry had to chase after him.
Su Yan turned around and chased after JR Smith, looking for a foul.
David Lee was also rushing under the basket, looking for JR Smith, and immediately fouled him.
There is no time to waste.
"Trying to foul? Dream on!!!"
JR Smith sneered and threw the basketball away again before the two players could rush in to foul him.
Look for Anthony again at the top of the key.
It is worth mentioning that... in the last two minutes of the game, players who are not in possession of the ball cannot be fouled.
This is a limitation on the "shark-cutting tactic".
Otherwise, it will be considered a violation, resulting in a technical penalty and possession of the ball remaining with the opposing team.
"It must be a data transmission back!"
Su Yan guessed that the Knicks would waste time, and that JR Smith would not attack and would definitely not give David Lee a chance to foul.
Then.
He will definitely pass the ball again, and it will inevitably go to Anthony on the outside.
Su Yan was just going through the motions, anticipating the move and catching up in advance without losing his position. But... after receiving the ball, Anthony actually tried to shoot directly.
The purpose is simple.
Continue wasting time.
The moment Anthony received the ball, there were only 4.4 seconds left on the clock, and several passes had already wasted half the time.
If he throws another three-pointer.
Even if they miss, wasting time on the rebound will essentially guarantee a loss for the Knicks.
Anthony caught the ball and immediately launched a three-pointer; that was a great idea.
Little did they know... Su Yan anticipated this and rushed out even earlier, bending his knees and leaping up.
The jump enhancement under 【Spring Man lv2】.
Having seized a significant advantage, he didn't even need to jump with full force.
He'll definitely be able to deliver a massive block to Anthony, sending the ball flying across the frontcourt, and then use that momentum to launch a fast break.
A fast break layup sealed the victory for the Knicks.
Su Yan has already come up with the script.
As it turned out... Anthony, who had already gathered the ball and raised it to make a shooting motion, actually faked a shot.
Crab meat is not available.
Su Yan was stunned.
A near-fatal food spill!
He flew past Anthony, only able to watch Anthony shoot and see his team headed for defeat.
"Ruined!"
"Barbie Q is here!"
"Gone!"
The Knicks fans at home were holding their heads in despair.
But there's nothing we can do about it, after all... Anthony's "triple threat" is textbook-level.
Su Yan was just a rookie, an undrafted player entering the league for the first time; he was still too inexperienced.
"Still too young!"
Anthony smiled slightly and calmly launched his three-pointer, taking advantage of the time difference.
That's a three-pointer that you can win no matter if you shoot or not, so you're bound to be... full of confidence.
But at this moment.
Su Yan shouted from behind, "I'll return those words to you exactly as they were!"
sound off.
Su Yan's slap seemed to come from the sky, coming from behind Anthony and slapping the basketball away just as he was about to shoot!
