Silently Writing
Chapter 696 Men Who Smile Are Always Lucky!
In the NBA, being dunked on by Su Feng has become a kind of "honor" for the league's interior players.
In the Mavericks' restricted area, Chandler had just turned his body around...
Su Feng descended from the sky, plunging his right hand, clutching the ball, along with his elbow into the hoop.
Seven years ago, in Oakland, what made the Jordan fans forget their vow to never watch basketball again after "Old Rogue" retired?
And what gave Toronto the reputation of "Sky City" from then on?
If art is "Patrick Star"...
Then at this moment, as Su Feng detonated Dallas...
Su Feng's figure, suspended above the basket, is the most beautiful picture in the world!
"I wouldn't get tired of watching a dunk like that, even if I saw it a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times!"
In front of the TV, watching Su Feng on the screen, Iverson, Kobe, and McGrady all turned to look at Carter.
Carter: "..."
No!
Why are you looking at me?
This...
Su Feng really dunked well...
But...
But what does it have to do with Vince Carter?
Honestly speaking.
At that moment, Carter felt targeted.
Because...
He was clearly about to shout "Nice shot!" just now...
But, after being stared down by Ai, Ke, and Mai...
He didn't know why, but Carter blurted out, "If it were him, he could have dunked it even better"...
Then...
In front of the TV, laughter suddenly filled the air.
"What... what's so funny about that?
Wait, next season, I'll definitely ask Su to compete in the dunk contest again!" Looking at Ai, Ke, and Mai, Carter said with a flushed face.
Hearing this, after laughing, McGrady stabbed Carter in the chest again: "Yeah, after all, that should be the only way you can participate in All-Star Weekend next season, cuz."
Carter: "..."
The camera returned to the American Airlines Center.
In the second quarter, after Su Feng's earth-shattering dunk, the Mavericks showed much greater resilience in this game than in the previous one.
Midway through the quarter, just as the Heat were about to gain momentum, Kidd, Terry, and Nowitzki hit key three-pointers from the outside one after another for the Mavericks.
As a team that relies on shooting, the Mavericks' ceiling is indeed very high.
Because once they get hot from the outside...
Even if the Heat defend perfectly on the court, they can't stop them.
And in Su Feng's memory, this is also the most helpless thing for many teams when facing that Warriors team in the future.
What if you defend well?
They can still make the shot.
Are you going to break their hands to stop them from shooting?
Wake up!
Basketball games still have to be decided by basketball itself.
Therefore, after noticing that the Mavericks' players were getting hotter and hotter, Spoelstra simply changed the Heat's lineup to O'Neal, Iguodala, Su Feng, Stackhouse, and Ginobili in the second half of the quarter.
"We need offense more than defense at this moment."
In order to prevent his teacher from not understanding the situation on the court, after making this substitution, Spoelstra did not forget to turn back and explain to Riley.
Riley: "..."
Good heavens!
So that means...
In your eyes, your teacher has now been reduced to a general manager who doesn't understand basketball at all?
On the court, in the second half of the second quarter, the scores of the two teams took turns leading.
CCTV, Zhang指导 couldn't help but sigh: "Before this Finals series began, many people believed that the Heat only had a chance if they defended well.
But these people forgot that in terms of offense, this Heat team has never been afraid of anyone in the past few years."
And Yu Jia added: "Good on both offense and defense is the best description of this Heat team."
American Airlines Center, at the end of the first half, with Stackhouse's buzzer-beating three-pointer, the Heat led 65-64 into the second half.
In the second quarter, apart from that earth-shattering dunk, Su Feng didn't have many highlights.
But in the eyes of experts...
Su Feng was the key to the Heat being able to hold off the Mavericks with offense in the second quarter.
TNT, during halftime, Barkley used a very vivid analogy: "Tonight, Su is the brightest star on the court. Whether it's the Mavericks or the Heat, they all have to revolve around him."
Indeed, in basketball games, the person who constantly scores on the court and provides teammates with wonderful passes is the brightest star.
But tonight, for the Heat...
Su Feng is like Kidd of this Heat team.
On the court, even if the ball doesn't go through Su Feng's hands, Su Feng can still bring positive offensive influence to the Heat at all times.
In the Mavericks' locker room, during halftime, Davis's head had already started to ache.
Because Su Feng, who can organize the team's offense behind the scenes without needing the ball...
Is the unsolvable problem for the Mavericks.
"Hmph, Charles only knows how to praise Su like crazy.
Clearly, in the second quarter, the other Heat players played better.
But in Charles' mouth, it's as if the Heat wouldn't be able to play without Su." In front of the TV, looking at Ai, Ke, and Mai, Carter said with a dissatisfied expression.
Because in Carter's opinion...
He usually plays like that on the court!
"Then, cuz, have you ever thought about why the players who play with Su often perform better?" Aside, looking at Carter, McGrady asked.
Hearing this, after thinking seriously in his mind for a while, Carter said: "Tracy, you wouldn't be trying to tell me that Su plays more selflessly than me on the court, would you?"
McGrady: "..."
Alright!
This Carter is completely hopeless in McGrady's eyes.
And Kobe, who chose to remain silent at this moment...
His bright smile had already given Carter the answer at this moment.
Just like how Su Feng, whose step-back jumper and fadeaway skills were not yet fully developed, could play with amazing efficiency on the court under Jordan's influence back then...
At this moment, even if Su Feng doesn't perform himself, he can still apply a buff to his teammates that weakens the opponent's defense.
On the court, after halftime, the game continued.
At the beginning of the third quarter, observing his teammates' movements, Su Feng knew that the Mavericks were already consciously strengthening their defense against the other Heat players.
Seeing this, Su Feng immediately switched his offensive mode.
On the wing, facing Posey, Su Feng raised his hand and made a three-pointer without any hesitation!
Posey: !!!
No, bro!
Am I already so weak that I don't even deserve you to make a slight feint before shooting?
Uh!
Okay!
Posey definitely misunderstood Su Feng.
Because apart from when facing Nash and Iverson, Su Feng would treat them as air...
Even if you put a bench in front of Su Feng, the always cautious Su Feng would never take it lightly.
Therefore, the reason why Su Feng shot so decisively and resolutely...
Was mainly because he was already "open."
Huh?
You say a one-on-one isn't an open shot?
Then the question now is.
If a one-on-one isn't an open shot...
Then you can't always let Su Feng throw blindly while facing two or three defensive players, can you? (Fan: You also know that those shots you used to take were blind throws?)
Swish!
In the second half, Su Feng once again scored the first point for the Heat.
68 to 64.
At this time, after a deep look at Davis, Kidd patted Posey on the shoulder and said, "Leave him to me!"
Hearing this, Posey was first stunned, then surprised.
Then, he cast a look of admiration at Kidd.
Why is Kidd's subjective initiative so strong?
Of course, it's because...
He also wants to beat Su Feng once!
Putting aside Kidd's character...
You know, on this land of miracles that is the NBA, Kidd is a veteran who attained enlightenment earlier than Su Feng.
If Steve Nash is the frontman of a rock band, able to detonate the audience with his highly imaginative and explosive passes in an instant.
Then Jason Kidd is more like the conductor of a symphony orchestra.
In order to win, he doesn't mind who steals his thunder on this night.
And on the court, Nowitzki, who had only rested for two minutes tonight, also gave Kidd enough courage to defeat Su Feng on this night with his eyes during the offense.
"Use me, Jason!"
On the court, just after crossing the half-court line, Nowitzki immediately circled behind Chandler.
This is the Dallas Mavericks' classic inside-inside screen tactic this season.
And at the moment when Nowitzki created distance between himself and Haslem...
Kidd also slammed the ball towards Nowitzki's chest in the first instance.
There is no doubt.
Whether it is the quality of the pass or the timing, this is a perfect pass.
And aside, Stackhouse, who was closest to Nowitzki, knew that Nowitzki would definitely make this shot even if he closed his eyes at this moment.
Putting aside the so-called metaphysics.
This season, if you compare the shooting percentage of Heat players who receive passes from Su Feng with the shooting percentage of Heat players who receive passes from Ginobili, you will find...
In fact, the reason why Stackhouse can always seize the assists Su Feng gives him is because Su Feng's passing quality today is incomparable to that of yesteryear.
You know.
Passing...
Is not just as simple as passing the ball to a teammate.
Swish!
68 to 67!
On the court, after scoring this Answer.Ball for the Mavericks, Nowitzki has already scored 30 points for the Dallas Mavericks tonight!
And in front of the TV, at this moment, Iverson also sighed: "Now, you should know how terrifying Su and this Heat team are this season, right?"
American Airlines Center, before Kobe and McGrady could look at Carter at the same time, on the court, after dribbling the ball across the half-court line, facing Posey again, Su Feng launched a three-pointer from the top of the arc without saying a word!
From the start of the offense to the completion of the finish...
There was no rationality to this ball at all.
Because...
Even Kidd, who was preparing to switch defense with Posey, didn't react before Su Feng completed the shot!
Swish!
71 to 67.
Heard you guys shouting "MVP"?
On the court, opening his arms and looking around, at this moment, Su Feng is like God wearing No. 23!
And on the scene, some Mavericks fans with slightly weaker psychological qualities were on the verge of collapse.
This kind of Su Feng!
This kind of Heat!
Can we really defeat them?
"If we ourselves don't believe that we can...
Then in this world, who else will believe in us?" On the sidelines, after a wry smile, John Davis said.
And on the court, after completing the inside-inside screen with Chandler again, Nowitzki used the same method to shoot his signature German high-射炮 (gaoshe pao - anti-aircraft gun) from the outside again!
However, because Haslem's speed in going around the screen this time was very fast, Nowitzki's center of gravity was obviously disrupted when he shot.
But...
What made the Mavericks fans, who were already in despair, dare not believe was...
This ball actually bounced off the backboard and into the net!
And, on the sidelines...
With the referee's whistle, Nowitzki also had the opportunity to step onto the free-throw line and complete a four-point play!
"Why are you all so depressed!
Didn't you see that our players are still fighting desperately on the court?" In the stands, at this moment, Cuban, who was very dissatisfied with the atmosphere at the Dallas arena, roared at the Mavericks fans behind him.
And in front of the TV, Carter also sighed at the same time: "It's unbelievable.
Even a team like the Mavericks can't gain an advantage against this Heat team.
Su...
Deserves to be the man who can stand at the pinnacle of the NBA!"
Ai, Ke, Mai: "..."
Holy crap!
Is this still the Carter we remember?
Carter: "..."
No!
How did I accidentally say what I really thought!
Ugh!
Am I the kind of person who says this kind of thing?
In front of the TV, we'll leave Carter, whose image has collapsed, aside for now.
American Airlines Center, with Nowitzki making the extra point, the Mavericks fans, who once again saw a glimmer of hope in despair, immediately used their heart-wrenching roars to express their "dissatisfaction" to this era, to Su Feng, and to this Heat team!
Why can you always win in the end?
Why?
Why?
We will not surrender!
In this battle, even if it lasts until the end of the world, we will never surrender!
If this era is destined to be ruled by Su Feng...
Then we Dallas people, even if we die...
Will try our best to pull him down from that damn throne!
"Roar, Dallas! Facing the flames of the East, towards the thorns of the apocalypse, until the twilight of the gods!" On the scene, as Nowitzki's four-point play ignited the audience, the Dallas local commentator said with a passionate expression.
However...
The blue wave had only just begun to roll...
The king of grinding from hell cruelly and mercilessly silenced the scene again.
Mavericks' half.
Top of the arc.
Looking at Su Feng's posture after dribbling the ball across the half-court line, Kidd was certain that Su Feng would shoot from beyond the three-point line again.
So, when Su Feng made a shooting posture, Kidd rushed towards Su Feng without hesitation.
But what's different from Posey is...
Because Kidd's defense is worth Su Feng making a feint...
So, looking at Kidd, who had almost blocked his shooting space, Su Feng also took the initiative to lean on him after making a feint.
And on the sidelines.
The referee, who had just called a "3+1" on the Mavericks, blew the whistle in his mouth at this moment.
But...
If it was just three free throws...
Then maybe the fans on the scene wouldn't be so devastated.
But...
As Su Feng's wildly thrown three-pointer also drilled into the basket after hitting the backboard...
American Airlines Center...
At this moment, the Mavericks' supporters no longer knew how to describe their feelings.
"There's no way, I've always been a very lucky person.
Because, who told me that I'm smiling more and more?"
And on the court, looking at Kidd, who was holding his head in his hands with an incredulous expression, Su Feng also spread out his hands and smiled at him...
……
ps: My kidneys are much better! Drinking water is the key!
ps2: I flaked out yesterday, because I've been a bit of a cuckoo these past two days, so I'll update first and then ask for leave! (You all know, I'm a thin-skinned person, so if I don't update, I won't even dare to look at the chapter reviews...)
