Silently Writing
Chapter 558 Death Dunk Returns!
"Wow! Su Feng is really on fire tonight!" On CCTV, watching Su Feng score 10 points right from the start, you could feel Zhang's "love" for Su Feng even through the screen.
Beside him, Yu Jia said, "As a four-time scoring champion in the NBA, we've seen Su Feng put more of his energy into orchestrating the team's offense this season.
But when he wants to score, scoring is as easy for him as eating and drinking."
"Amazing! If the Trail Blazers don't adjust their defense..."
After a pause, Zhang added, "Then Su Feng might start with 40 points tonight."
At the Rose Garden Arena, with 8 minutes and 14 seconds left in the first quarter, the Trail Blazers called a timeout first.
Before the game, because the team's two backup centers, Kajaapa and Skinner, were both injured, Cheeks looked visibly embarrassed during this timeout.
Because with the team's starting center, Przybilla, already having two fouls, Cheeks couldn't possibly arrange for Garnett to play center, could he?
Uh...
Cheeks did want to arrange it that way.
But when Garnett noticed that the coach had such a dangerous idea, the iron-blooded wolf king immediately turned his head to the side and started whistling.
And then...
Because Garnett never responded to his affectionate gaze...
So, after hesitating for a few seconds, Cheeks had to call up Ha Seung-jin.
As a result, the Korean fans in front of the TV instantly felt that they had reached the peak of their lives.
In Su Feng's original timeline, because Yao averaged only 20.8 points, 8 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks in his 4 career encounters with Ha Seung-jin...
So until Ha Seung-jin faded out of the NBA, and even for a long time after he faded out, the Korean media always firmly believed that as long as Ha Seung-jin could get as much playing time as Yao Ming, this hippopotamus would definitely be better than Yao Ming.
After all, to quote the Korean media, if you calculate Ha Seung-jin's stats against Yao Ming per 36 minutes, then this hippopotamus can also average 5.8... points?
"Wow! Tonight, Ha Seung-jin is being arranged to play as a savior by the coach!" the commentator from Universe Country TV said proudly.
Beside him, Seo Jang-hoon, a Korean national basketball player who came to the arena tonight as a guest commentator, said, "It looks like Ha Seung-jin is in pretty good shape tonight."
The camera returned to the Rose Garden Arena.
Although theoretically, Ha Seung-jin also has a height of 221 cm and a weight of 138 kg...
But compared to the pressure he felt when facing Yao Ming before...
It was a pity.
It was a pity that the commentators on Korean TV couldn't hear O'Neal's inner voice.
Otherwise, they would definitely type "Xiba" frantically on the public screen to question why O'Neal was discriminating against Koreans.
On the court, the Trail Blazers were on the attack.
After Ha Seung-jin brought the Heat's help defense to Paul, Paul froze instantly.
"What an excellent pick-and-roll, Chris Paul will be very grateful for Ha Seung-jin's pick-and-roll, right?" the Universe Country commentator said with a smile.
Cough...
To be fair.
At this moment, Paul really wanted to thank Ha Seung-jin's whole family.
However, because Paul was only a few months older than Ha Seung-jin, and Ha Seung-jin didn't know that this Pao-ge was also the big brother...
So when Paul glared at Ha Seung-jin with his death stare, his eyes were obviously not as effective as Garnett's.
Fortunately, Garnett, noticing that Paul was about to be double-teamed, waved at Ha Seung-jin in time.
And now, how dare Ha Seung-jin neglect him?
On the court, the hippopotamus immediately ran to the other side after receiving instructions from his big brother Garnett.
Speaking of which...
This "Universe Country" is also amazing.

In Su Feng's original timeline, although Ha Seung-jin was the first Korean to play in the NBA...
But because this guy had the lowest seniority in the Korean national team, whenever Seo Jang-hoon, who proclaimed himself "Asia's No. 1 Center," pointed at the floor during training, Ha Seung-jin would obediently pick up the mop like a little brother and mop the floor.
And at this time, the Korean players not only would not come forward to help, but would instead enjoy it.
As a result, after this matter was reported by some domestic media...
I don't know how it was distorted.
Online, especially under the deliberate guidance of a group of Yingtu, the view that Koreans were more "respectful of the old and loving of the young" than Chinese people inexplicably became the "consensus" of Chinese netizens at that time.
And what's even more amazing is that, due to a conflict with teammate Sinanović during a team training session in '05, Ha Seung-jin and Sinanović started fighting.
And then, you might not believe it...
It was still that same group of people.
When describing this incident, Ha Seung-jin, in their mouths, actually became a very courageous player who dared to challenge injustice and unfreedom.
But...
If Su Feng remembered correctly, Sinanović seemed to be two years older than Ha Seung-jin, wasn't he?
So now the question is.
Do Koreans have double standards on "respecting the old and loving the young" just like their Daddy who advocates "democracy"?
Or are some ungrateful guys in the country unable to stand up after kneeling for too long?
Meaning, because Sinanović comes from Bosnia and Herzegovina...
So he doesn't deserve to enjoy the "fine tradition" of Koreans "respecting the old and loving the young"?
In fact, after getting a little older, Su Feng knew very well...
This is just because some Yingtu can't stand the fact that Yao Ming can really beat those black and tough guys in the American media to the ground in the NBA.
After all, for this group of Yingtu, Yao Ming is not winning glory for the country at all? This is clearly using his oversized basketball shoes to slap their faces!
On the court, after struggling to break free from the Heat's double-team, Paul's little jump shot failed to hit the target.
This ball, because Ha Seung-jin's pick-and-roll quality was too poor, not only did the Trail Blazers waste several seconds of offensive time, but Paul's personal offensive rhythm was also affected to a certain extent.
Therefore, Paul's choice to shoot a mid-range shot after shaking off Payton was a wise one in order to avoid mistakes.
However...
"Oh! If Chris Paul could have seen Ha Seung-jin's run on this ball, it would have been a perfect collaboration!" said the Universe Country commentator on Universe Country TV with great regret.
Beside him, Seo Jang-hoon complained, "If Kim Seung-hyun was controlling the ball, he would definitely have noticed Ha Seung-jin's run."
Well...
After tonight, based on the views of the two commentators on Korean TV and the Korean fans watching TV...
Paul might have to commit seppuku to be worthy of Ha Seung-jin?
On the court, the Heat had possession.
In order to cherish Ha Seung-jin's rare and precious playing time, Su Feng decisively abandoned his bet with O'Neal.
After all, in Su Feng's opinion, losing a bet would at most mean losing 20,000 US dollars to O'Neal.
But if the task issued by the system is not completed...
Then what Su Feng loses will be more than 20,000 US dollars?
So at the top of the arc, after getting the ball from Payton, Su Feng decisively waved his hand and called O'Neal to the high post.
Boom!
On the court, the moment he formed a pick-and-roll with O'Neal, Su Feng dribbled the ball and broke through Patterson's defensive zone!
And at this time, due to the tone Su Feng set for this game...
The rest of the Trail Blazers players, including Ha Seung-jin, pounced on Su Feng.
In the restricted area, the cunning old wolf king symbolically waved his arms and stepped back, while yelling to signal Ha Seung-jin to "live or die, go forward courageously."
As a result, just as Ha Seung-jin foolishly pounced on Su Feng...
Su Feng just gently picked it up and fed a big cake to O'Neal, who had already leaped into the sky!
"Just as I thought.
Su...
Kobe is Kobe.
And you are you!"
In the three-second zone, after receiving the big cake from Su Feng, at this moment, the figure of the Los Angeles afro that would faintly appear whenever O'Neal received a pass from Su Feng had disappeared without a trace.
Because in O'Neal's opinion, the reason why Su Feng is Su Feng is precisely because any bet is far less important to him than winning the game!
O'Neal knew that if he completed this dunk, he would win the bet he had proposed to Su Feng before the game, who between him and Su Feng could complete the dunk in front of Ha Seung-jin first.
And O'Neal also knew that Su Feng definitely knew what this pass meant.
But...
Su Feng still passed it.
"Is this the reason why I couldn't defeat you in the past no matter what?"
Bang!
On the court, after shaking the Rose Garden Arena with a two-handed dunk, O'Neal pointed at Su Feng while landing and laughed, "You won, Su!"
At this moment, looking at Su Feng's handsome face, O'Neal felt that the light on Su Feng's body had covered the entire court.
And hearing this...
Looking at O'Neal, who had completely become his shape...
After a moment of愣, Su Feng smiled and said, "No, you won, Shaq."
Losing a bet is losing a bet.
But Su Feng doesn't like to go back on his word.
It's just...
Before choosing to feed O'Neal the cake just now, Su Feng didn't expect that his 20,000 US dollars could be spent so well.
On the court, the game continued.
On Universe Country TV, after a few seconds of silence, Seo Jang-hoon finally found a way to resolve the embarrassment.
"Although he couldn't defend against Shaquille O'Neal, the behemoth, if it wasn't for Ha Seung-jin's active defense, then Su Feng would have scored two more points for the Heat again." After pondering for two seconds, Seo Jang-hoon said.
"Yes! And even when facing the best player in the world, Ha Seung-jin didn't take half a step back just now!" After a pause, the commentator on Korean TV added.
According to the system's judgment...
Because as long as Ha Seung-jin is near O'Neal when he receives his alley-oop dunk, the dunk will be judged as valid.
So, at the moment, as long as he helps O'Neal complete another dunk through an alley-oop, Su Feng will achieve the first task requirement of "The Fury from the Super Center."
It has to be said that the task issued by the system this time...
In Su Feng's opinion, it's even more of a race against time than Speed.
Because after this attack and defense, on the Trail Blazers' bench, Cheeks had already called up another Trail Blazers backup power forward.
Ah this!
No...
Isn't Ha Seung-jin playing well tonight?
Why don't you want to give people more playing time?
On the court, Su Feng, feeling pressured, even almost directly told Paul during defense...
You can shoot this ball however you want, I will definitely not help defend you.
Because the Trail Blazers have already applied for a substitution, so once a dead ball is formed at this time, Ha Seung-jin is likely to be substituted...
Therefore...
When noticing Payton's little hand constantly reaching out to Paul...
No lies.
At this moment, Su Feng really wanted to kick this "Glove" back to Los Angeles.
Fortunately, under Su Feng's eye defense, Patterson cut into the Heat's inside line in time.
And Paul's pass arrived just as he said it would.
In the restricted area, Patterson hit the layup off the backboard, and it was the Heat's turn to attack.
And on the court, after Payton dribbled the ball past half court, Su Feng also hurriedly asked for the ball.
As the saying goes, opportunity knocks but once.
At the top of the arc, after summoning O'Neal to his face again, using the pick-and-roll of this fat-headed fish, Su Feng quickly rushed into the Trail Blazers' inside line.
It has to be said that Ha Seung-jin tonight is definitely the best response to those who think that Yao Ming can only play in the NBA because of his height.
Because based on this guy Ha Seung-jin's moving speed on the court, compared to Yao Ming, isn't he just a snail?
In the restricted area, after Su Feng threw the ball high again, O'Neal immediately detonated the entire arena with a thunderous dunk!
And at this time, on the Trail Blazers' bench, Cheeks always felt that his head must have been caught in the door tonight, that's why he chose to send Ha Seung-jin up to top it off.
It's a pity that because the Trail Blazers just called a timeout...
So in order to save the number of timeouts, Cheeks decided to patiently wait until a dead ball before substituting Ha Seung-jin.
However...
At this moment, what Cheeks absolutely can't imagine is that it was his "save" this time that allowed the most classic scene of this game to be preserved.
On the court, it was the Trail Blazers' turn to attack.
Maybe because he knew that he would be substituted soon, Ha Seung-jin actually boldly stretched out his hand to Paul in the low post.
And seeing this, Paul, who originally didn't want to pay attention to Ha Seung-jin, ultimately couldn't overcome his long-formed reasonable concept.
After all, theoretically speaking...
Ha Seung-jin's position on this ball is indeed a little good.
It's just...
On the court, before Ha Seung-jin could complete his turn, Su Feng came from behind and pulled him down with the ball.
And on the sidelines, because the referees didn't call a foul, this ball was a good block.
However, in the eyes of the fans of the Universe Country, this ball was definitely because the referees were all bribed by Su Feng, so they would be so biased towards Su Feng!
After all, just like the Universe Country's Daddy in the future often uses the things they have done to think that the rabbit must also want to do the same...
As the big filial son of the rice country, for Korean fans who relied on referees to reach the top four in the 02 World Cup, in their eyes, where is there any so-called objectivity?
On the court, because Garnett and Paul's retreat speed was very fast, Su Feng decisively gave up the idea of directly playing a transition offense.
And just as Ha Seung-jin retreated to his own half of the court with a grievance...
Noticing that Patterson was a little slack, Su Feng suddenly dribbled the ball, turned around, and accelerated, breaking into the Trail Blazers' restricted area again from the wing!
And at this time, in order to avenge his previous arrow, Ha Seung-jin also mustered the courage to rush towards Su Feng.
But...
I don't know why...
At this moment, Ha Seung-jin always felt that after Su Feng jumped up...
He seemed to be getting higher and higher...
In the restricted area, after colliding with Su Feng's body, Ha Seung-jin, who tried to use his right hand to pull Su Feng down, desperately found that...
His height, which he was proud of, had simply been reduced to a decoration in front of Su Feng!
In front of Su Feng's terrifying impact, Ha Seung-jin's huge body suddenly began to lean back constantly!
Bang!
Rose Garden Arena, if you don't understand the true meaning of the word "death"...
It must be because you haven't witnessed Su Feng's dunk with your own eyes.
On the sidelines, Anthony-Green, a photojournalist from ESPN, recorded this classic picture with his shutter.
I saw the Chinese dragon taking off in the sky...
Just like looking at ants...
Overlooking the entire arena.
