Chapter 362 A Dead End at Tianwang Mountain! A Turning Point Appears!
The situation actually seems quite clear.
In a hard-fought matchup, the Knicks can't win.
You can't expect Su Yan to do better in two consecutive games with 60+ points.
As for 70 points?!
I am just joking.
This is the finals stage! Scoring 60 points in a single game is already incredibly difficult, let alone 70!
Please.
Su Yan had never done that in the regular season.
The finals are never that easy.
The Knicks are under a lot of pressure to win.
However... in the live broadcast room of the Dragon Sports Channel, Wang Meng and Coach Zhang ignored everything.
I unconditionally believe in Su Yan and support the Knicks.
This is inevitable.
Among the fans watching the live stream were many Lakers fans, and Kobe fans in particular.
Suddenly I was conflicted.
They may genuinely like Kobe, but... what about their compatriot Su Yan, who delivered a phenomenal performance?
Even if I don't say I like it.
At the very least, I don't dislike it.
On the one hand, they hope their idol will win the championship.
On the other hand, they also hope that their compatriots can win the championship, revitalize the Chinese men's basketball team, and enable them to compete against foreign players.
When talking about basketball, especially the NBA, one can stand tall and say with confidence and pride that this year's Finals MVP is from China, proving that Chinese basketball players are just that good.
in this way.
Everyone was caught in a dilemma.
On the field.
The Knicks looked serious; everyone was under pressure to win, but they were also warming up properly.
"Shh!"
"Shh!"
"Shh!"
McGrady hit three consecutive pull-up jumpers from beyond the arc, but shook his head and mocked himself, "What's the use of being good at training?"
"If you're so good, why don't you compete in accuracy?"
Iverson was also training quietly, shooting jump shots, layups, and accelerations again and again.
He also longs to have a breakout performance to prove his significance in coming to the Knicks and to show that he can contribute to the championship run.
This desire, this thirst for victory, is even stronger than McGrady's, much stronger!!!
The opposite half of the court.
The entire Lakers team is also actively warming up.
After winning two consecutive sets and fully understanding their own formidable championship pedigree, every player's face was filled with absolute confidence.
Everyone firmly believes that basketball is a team game.
As long as we work together and each do our job, we will definitely win the game and retain the championship!
Actually.
They're confusing the facts a bit.
It's not that the Knicks don't want to play team basketball, or that superheroes can't appear; it's just that the gap is too big.
"boom!"
In the electrifying atmosphere of the stadium.
After the warm-up, the starting lineups from both sides took to the field, and the crucial match began.
"Jumpball!"
A contest for the ball between Bynum and Tyson.
"Snapped!"
"Little Shark" Bynum swatted the basketball away first, winning the Lakers their first possession in Game 5.
Bynum pushed it over.
After handing the basketball to Kobe, Su Yan pressed forward relentlessly.
In the third battle, with each subsequent intense confrontation under relentless pressure and defense, the hidden buff of [Invigorating Armor lv1] was triggered.
Su Yan is currently in excellent condition.
Now, Su Yanqiang is terrifying.
He wants to use his abundant energy to put strong defensive pressure on Kobe, starting with Kobe, to reduce the Lakers' offensive efficiency.
but.
Kobe, who wanted to win back-to-back championships and two Finals MVP awards, was too mature and too steady.
He has completely evolved into a bloodthirsty "Black Mamba" who can kill with a single bite, without a trace of the "Peter Pan" in him!
Not at all ambiguous.
They decisively avoided Su Yan and prioritized targeting Stephen Curry, a weak defensive link. Isn't that bullying?!
Correct.
It's bullying.
The NBA, like martial arts or immortal cultivation, is a place where the strong prey on the weak.
The weak will be bullied until they are eliminated.
Only the strongest can stand at the top and dominate the entire league.
In the playoffs, opponents will not only look for defensive weaknesses, but will also constantly target those weaknesses.
As long as we win, everything is fine.
"Bang bang bang!"
Kobe approached Curry, not only keeping a close eye on him, but also using his most unreasonable physical strength to overpower and devour him.
He forcefully drove into the low post area near the basket.
In another confrontation, Kobe turned around without needing to fake anything and directly launched a fadeaway jump shot.
Curry can't defend against it.
Even if it's completely sealed off, it won't cause any interference.
Whether this shot goes in or not has nothing to do with Curry's defense; it all depends on Kobe's own shooting touch.
"Shh!"
It hit the target without fail.
During Kobe's two-peat era, his fadeaway jump shot was incredibly consistent.
Lakers 2:0 Knicks.
Kobe used his signature move to give the team a winning start.
Transition of possession.
Su Yan, in top form, continued his aggressive offense against Artest's defense.
There are no tricks involved.
It charged forward violently once again.
"hiss……"
Artest was scared, he was really scared, after four games of this kind of confrontation where he couldn't throw a punch.
He knew perfectly well that he was no match for Su Yan.
This kind of confrontation hurts you every time you engage in it.
"All you know how to do is fight. Can't you learn from our boss and show some offensive skills?!"
A brute like you, a mere brute, won't last long in the League.
Artest roared with a flushed face, looking as if he was teaching Su Yan and pointing out the way to his future.
In reality, they were simply afraid of being hit by cars.
However... Su Yan wouldn't fall for it.
His ball control is average, and he doesn't have any dribbling skills; his strength is his weapon for breaking through defenses.
Not just a little.
Instead, it's a 220 kg bench press.
This allows him to more easily break through defenses and score in the penalty area compared to the average "reckless player".
Then why not?!
I can't listen to a single word.
"Bang bang bang!"
Su Yan crushed Artest time and time again, then charged into the defense of Gasol, Kobe, and others, like a tank, ignoring everything and crushing everything.
Slow down your defensive rotations, then dunk!
With good defense, dunks over defenders are commonplace.
The defense involves multiple players, a difficult layup, or a violent confrontation that earns a whistle and puts you at the free-throw line.
Why not go in?!
Of course he will, but... Su Yan's overall efficiency in attacking the basket is quite good, and his offensive power is always very strong.
This is also based on the premise that the Lakers focus on defending his three-point shooting.
He has a good chance to attack the basket.
However... if they relax even slightly, Su Yan's [Full Mark Three] will punish them severely.
Based on these foundations.
Su Yan's suffocating defense and counter-attacks were the key to his single-handedly leading the team to victory.
In short.
Su Yan is still in top form tonight, and he is once again showing signs of becoming a "superhero" to save the team.
however.
Whether it succeeds or fails depends on whether we can win the game.
Is it possible?
It seems... it seems it still can't.
After the first quarter, Su Yan, with his excellent stamina and hot shooting touch, scored a whopping 21 points in the quarter.
The results of it? !
The team is still trailing by 4 points.
This is completely incredible!
With Su Yan playing so well, the team must gain points to have any chance of winning the game.
What's the reason?!
The Lakers played well, that's one thing, but... the Knicks' role players couldn't help at all.
This is truly fatal.
If this continues, the situation will be just like in Games 3 and 4, where Su Yan puts up incredible stats, but the team still loses.
Could it be that... the Knicks are at their wits' end?!
