Silently Writing

Chapter 563 History is Made, The Strongest Cup King! (Thanks to all readers for waiting!)

If that first three-pointer of Su Feng's in the second quarter, with his premature turn to celebrate, made some people think he was too arrogant and conceited...

Then after he did it four times in a row...

On-site, in front of TVs.

At this moment, even some "Feng haters" with wavering stances were about to switch from hating to being neutral, and then from neutral to fans.

Arrogant?

He certainly was quite arrogant.

But in a game with such intense competition, and with a poor shooting touch in the first quarter...

Su Feng not only made four consecutive three-pointers;

Not only did he turn around to celebrate early after each shot;

And when he took his fourth shot...

He even told Marion, who was guarding him, where he was going to shoot from.

At the American Airlines Center, on the Suns' bench, with a helpless wry smile, D'Antoni slowly walked to the scorer's table.

This was the second timeout the Suns had called in a short period during the second quarter.

At the same time, this was also D'Antoni using his silent protest—protesting that God always liked to descend to Earth for no reason lately.

"Oh! My God! I really want to cut open his chest and see what his heart is made of!" said Barkley, who was utterly shocked, on TNT.

And next to him, Smith, who was also in a semi-petrified state, said, "In my career as a player and as a commentator, I have personally witnessed many great scenes...

But never before has my chest risen and fallen so much, and my throat felt as if something was blocking it.

Believe me, this is definitely the greatest shooting performance in NBA history!"

On the court, after the timeout, in the midst of the arena chanting "MVP! MVP! MVP!"...

Because even though Su had made four incredible three-pointers in a row in the second quarter...

Right now, he and his team were still struggling to catch up with the score!"

And next to him, Smith laughed and said, "Isn't this kind of evenly matched game exactly what fans are looking forward to?"

At the American Airlines Center, because the game wasn't dead, the match continued.

It was the Heat's turn to attack.

"This time, he will still choose to pass," Bird asserted, staring at the TV screen in Boston.

And on the court, just as Bird had predicted, under Marion's close pressure, Su Feng once again passed the ball to Ginobili, who had cut to the basket.

"Larry, how can you guess Su's every move?" Bird's assistant asked curiously in the Celtics' general manager's office.

"Intuition," Bird said calmly, turning to look at his assistant.

Assistant: "..."

Because...

Intuition!?

"Because Su's four previous three-pointers were too unreasonable, in order to prevent Su from easily getting a three-point shot on the outside, Shawn will definitely choose to let him break through rather than try to block Su's shot," Bird said after patting his assistant on the shoulder.

"I understand that, but..."

"But, if such defense could make Su at a loss, then why would we need to be so cautious about him?

Well... theoretically, that's true.

However, this is also why I think Su is currently in his best condition.

Because his mind is very clear right now.

So these two passes, you can completely see them as him laying out a plan," Bird said, squinting his eyes and looking at the handsome face in the close-up shot on TV.

"But Larry... since you can always predict Su's moves, then when we face the Heat next time..."

At the American Airlines Center, before Bird could answer his assistant's question, McGrady and Hill completed a two-man play.

After Hill broke through to the basket and tossed the ball high, McGrady leaped up, stretched out in the air, caught the ball, and slammed it in with one arm.

55 to 48.

"When have I ever said that I can predict Su's moves?

Buddy, remember one sentence.

In this world, ignorance and weakness are never obstacles to survival...

Arrogance is!" Bird said, looking back at his assistant while Ginobili was dribbling the ball across half court.

And at this moment...

Bird's assistant felt like a herd of alpacas was running through his heart.

Because looking at the present, past, and future, he couldn't find a third shooter more "arrogant" than Su Feng and Bird.

Only...

Clearly, this young assistant didn't understand the true meaning behind Bird's words.

Because he might not believe it if he said it.

The more guys like Su Feng and Bird become kings, the more they will hold a sense of awe for basketball and the game itself.

Bird knew very well that the reason he could predict Su Feng's every move tonight was only because he was an outsider.

But once he was in it himself...

Besides the changing situation on the court, Su Feng's offensive choices on the court would also change invisibly.

In short, the observer sees more than the participant.

So Bird didn't think he could see through or understand Su Feng's moves.

Just like he said himself.

He was just relying on his king's intuition to guess what choice Su Feng, this king, would make.

The camera returned to the American Airlines Center.

Because Ginobili's pass was knocked out of bounds by Hill, O'Neal, who had been waiting for a long time at the scorer's table, finally strode back onto the court with his strong steps.

The Heat inbounded the ball.

Su Feng ran from the baseline to the top of the arc, and only got the ball after Haslem's screen.

Marion's athleticism in his prime was truly amazing.

But no matter how amazing his athleticism was, it couldn't guarantee that Marion could get around O'Neal's wall in the first instance.

Because this fathead's model...

Was really too big, too big.

However, because Su Feng had already given the Suns players psychological trauma, as soon as Su Feng got a slight gap after using O'Neal's screen, Hill stepped on the gas and sprinted from the wing to Su Feng's face.

The facts proved that in this world, the only thing that could accelerate from "0" to "100" in 1 second wasn't just the ordinary and confident Intel...

Grant Hill.

A man you never knew how fast he really was!

But, at the moment Hill appeared in front of Su Feng, Hill's body showed a momentary stiffness with Su Feng's ordinary fake move!

While looking at the direction Hill was pouncing, Su Feng grabbed the ball with his left hand.

This was an ordinary passing fake.

But, this was also a passing fake that "Feng studies" enthusiasts in front of the TV could never learn, no matter how hard they tried!

Because after grabbing the ball with one hand and pretending to pass, could you believe that Su Feng actually "pulled" the ball back?

From preparing to pass, to the ball seemingly leaving his basketball hand...

In this whole process...

The ball was actually always in Su Feng's hand!

On the court, Hill was tricked.

And taking advantage of Hill's brief stiffness...

After quickly gathering the ball, Su Feng raised his hand again from the left side of the arc!

Stepping, hanging, flicking his wrist!

And...

At the moment the basketball left his shooting hand, Su Feng, like before, chose to turn around and celebrate early again.

He...

Dared to do it again!?

Yes.

He just dared to do it!

Don't ask, just know that...

At this moment, Su Feng's three-pointer only had one option: a swish!

Swish——!

"Passing, shooting, breaking through...

It seemed that at that moment, Su only had these three options to choose from.

But for Grant, because Su had chosen to pass twice before, he clearly hesitated when he was helping with the defense this time."

In Boston, Bird continued his previous judgment of Su Feng, looking at his assistant.

Hearing this, Bird's assistant was speechless for a moment.

Perhaps...

This was the connection between kings...

A meeting of minds!

"Moreover, Su will be even more difficult to defend next," Bird said after a pause to his assistant.

On the court, the game continued.

McGrady cut into the paint from the left side using his explosive start.

It was a pity that facing O'Neal's help defense, McGrady's bank shot had problems with the angle he chose.

Bang, clang——!

In the restricted area, O'Neal protected the Heat's backboard.

Immediately afterward, relying on the understanding he had built up with Su Feng during this time, as well as his absolute trust in Su Feng, as soon as he turned around, O'Neal threw the basketball to the front court!

On the basketball court, wingspan is truth, big hands are justice!

And at this moment, looking up at Su Feng, Marion's mentality clearly changed slightly.

Especially after Su Feng caught the ball and landed...

Even knowing that Su Feng was more likely to choose to shoot, but looking at Su Feng's sudden fake move to break through...

Marion still subconsciously took a small step back.

"Now, on this court, no player can keep up with his rhythm anymore!"

In Boston, watching the TV screen, Bird said with emotion, looking at the sound of the gun being raised for the sixth time in the second quarter.

Swish——!

At the American Airlines Center, under Su Feng's early turn announcement, nearly 20,000 fans at the scene also learned from Su Feng and stretched out their left hands in advance.

And with the basketball swishing through the net...

The entire Florida, the entire North America, the entire China...

No one watching this game could stand and watch.

Because...

Not once or twice, nor three or four times.

In this battle for the top spot in the East and West against the Suns, Su Feng, in the second quarter, had, for the sixth time in a row, announced to the world in advance by turning around early after shooting—his shot would definitely swish through the net!

"Even in NBA Live, players can't make such a scene in the game, right?" Barkley said on TNT.

Well...

Charles, please be confident.

Because even in 2k more than ten years later, it would definitely not be possible to replicate the famous scene created by Su Feng tonight!

On the court, the game continued.

Hill hit a turnaround jumper from mid-range, which was considered a slight stabilization of the situation for the Suns.

57 to 54.

It was the Heat's turn to attack.

After the "Sha-Feng" pick-and-roll, O'Neal received a wonderful pass from Su Feng and easily scored two points under the basket.

57 to 56.

At this time, while using his body to imitate Su Feng's fake move just now, Marion's helpless expression seemed to be saying:

"See, I told you that if I didn't pounce, he would definitely pass the ball."

Could not keep up.

Just could not keep up.

Tonight, Su Feng was one level ahead of other stars in terms of game rhythm and judgment of the situation.

Therefore, it was not that the "Sha-Feng" pick-and-roll could not be cracked, nor that Marion could not prevent Su Feng's offense by predicting.

Just...

Tonight, Su Feng.

Could see a more distant future than Marion.

Yes, that's right.

Tonight, most of the time, before Marion's prediction happened, Su Feng had already predicted Marion's prediction.

On the court, relying on the Suns' excellent offensive performance tonight, although the Suns were still struggling to maintain their slight lead in the second half of the second quarter.

But whenever Su Feng received the basketball from his teammates...

The Suns players all put on a bitter face.

With 2 minutes and 29 seconds left in the second quarter, watching Su Feng, who was throwing another three-pointer on the wing and choosing to turn around and celebrate early again...

No one knew how desperate Marion and the others felt at this moment...

"MVP, MVP, MVP"...

Swish——!

At the American Airlines Center, amid the cheers of the crowd, Su Feng made his seventh three-pointer of the quarter!

64 to 64!

"Su has single-handedly tied the score for the Miami Heat!"

On TNT, Smith, who couldn't find any words to describe Su Feng, had to choose to amplify his decibels to remind the audience in front of the TV what a great performance they were watching.

However, this was not all of Su Feng's second quarter performance tonight.

Because in the final moments of the second quarter, Su Feng hit two more three-pointers on the left wing baseline and his classic Logo area!

And like the previous seven shots.

The last two shots...

Su Feng chose to turn around and celebrate early after shooting.

On the scoreboard, the half ended, 69 to 70.

Inside the arena, cheers and applause rose and fell.

In front of the TV, after picking up the pieces of their shattered kneecaps, ten thousand words were not as practical as a single "f**k".

On TNT, after a long period of silence, Barkley announced to the entire North America in his deliberate tone: "Ladies and gentlemen.

Although I know that everyone is still immersed in the great performance that Su just gave.

But as a commentator, I still have to remind everyone.

Tonight, Su has successfully created a new NBA single-quarter three-point record!"
