Chapter 847: Chapter 278: He Is the Chosen One, and the Only One
He’s tugging me, he’s tugging me, referee!
The referee glanced at him:
Do you have an issue?
Westbrook waited for three seconds, seeing that he couldn’t shake off and get open, he lost patience and directly drove to the basket himself.
Tyson Chandler timely blocked him, Westbrook passed the ball to Perkins once again.
Perkins had just been blocked like this and naturally didn’t dare to shoot.
But his ability to make plays is quite poor, which led to the Thunder Team’s passing getting stagnant once Perkins held the ball.
In the last 3 seconds of the 24-second offense, the ball finally came out of Perkins’ hands.
Seferosa shooting the "bomb disposal" style.
Bang...
Missed!
Kevin Durant showed some guilt on his face.
In his view, this round was his fault!
If he had received the ball this round, then the Thunder Team’s offense wouldn’t have been so terrible.
If Su Wan knew what he was thinking, he would surely say:
No need to blame yourself, Kevin, trust me, you’ll get used to it soon!
The New York Knicks seized the opportunity to counterattack, as Stephen Curry ran to the front court, the ball also flew to him.
Picks it up and shoots!
The ball went into the hoop with a sound.
Stephen Curry didn’t even land steadily, hopping several times around.
Looking quite smug.
To be honest, Curry is not only the most powerful shooter beyond the three-point line, but also the smuggest when scoring.
Just look at the way he reacted after making the shot, as if he couldn’t wait to do a "samba".
This was surely the best excitement booster for the New York fans on the scene.
The cheers directly drowned the entire venue.
Westbrook couldn’t stand this, asked for the ball in the back court, and charged straight to the front court like an unstoppable mad bull.
Mainly because Stephen Curry’s three-point shot seemed to kick his butt, making him embarrassed. He naturally had to find a way back.
Then...
There’s no "then"!
Westbrook rushed to the basket for a layup and missed, the ball was grabbed by the following Su Wan, who quickly pushed the counterattack.
Thunder Team players who had followed Westbrook to the front court quickly ran back, but before they could get stable, Su Wan made a breakthrough in one step, turned 180 degrees under the basket, and completed a slam dunk.
Get on the press, get on the press!
Seeing Su Wan successfully executed another fast break, Tyronn Lue on the sidelines was even more excited than the fans at the scene, shouting for the Knicks players on the court to enter full-court press mode.
This kind of fast-paced transition is the favorite of the New York Knicks.
Moreover, it’s apparent that the Thunder Team, as the Youth Army, was quite rough in retreat defense, which is a point that the New York Knicks could exploit.
Kevin Durant was really getting a bit anxious.
He was more focused than ever, but Su Wan seemed to have scanned his brain with X-ray, knowing his moves thoroughly.
No matter how he moved, Su Wan could make the most accurate judgment, especially when he tried to receive the ball, always forming very high-quality delays or interference.
Kevin Durant had no chance to receive the ball and shoot directly.
This round, the ball still didn’t make it to Kevin Durant’s hands.
Su Wan watched Ibaka’s mid-range jumper miss, Tyson Chandler grabbed the rebound, saying to Kevin Durant: "Kevin, did someone tell you that you could beat me with shooting?"
"Or is it..."
Su Wan glanced at Scarlett on the sidelines, then looked at Kevin Durant: "Or did someone promise you that as long as you play a fake game, they’d let you drink bathwater?"
What the hell!
Kevin Durant suddenly got angry; when Su Wan forcibly received the ball, he charged forward regardless, trying to engage in physical confrontation.
Facing the rampaging Kevin Durant, Su Wan steadily braced himself with his shoulder.
However, this guy’s arms are truly long.
Even though Su Wan’s non-ball hand always protected the front of his ball.
But Kevin Durant’s long arms seemed like Luffy’s rubber hand, capable of circumventing his hand and threatening the ball.
It’s really damn long.
Feeling Kevin Durant’s aggressiveness, Su Wan simply kept making various probing fake moves. Kevin Durant indeed fell for it.
Directly caught "hooked", swayed to the side by Su Wan.
Su Wan looked at the space Kevin Durant "automatically" vacated, calmly took a shot, easily scoring.
The point difference at this moment reached 15.
The Thunder Team was also on the verge of collapse.
Kevin Durant became more eager, finally couldn’t resist taking the ball.
Brooks didn’t say anything, because he had already noticed that the opposing team had been targeting Kevin Durant’s catch-and-shoot throughout the second half.
Moreover, from his perspective, it was clearer:
The entire New York Knicks were completely cooperating with Su Wan on defense.
As long as Kevin Durant showed signs of receiving the ball, while Su Wan was interfering, the Knicks player defending the ball handler would also intensify their defense, forming a stronger interference, the "two-headed block" method to disrupt Durant’s receiving.
Since the opponents didn’t want Kevin Durant to catch and shoot directly.
Then...
It was time to test Kevin Durant’s ball-handling ability.
Brooks was a bit speechless too, to be honest, against other teams, when did Kevin Durant’s ball-handling ability ever need to be tested?
This is damned near a siege weapon.
