Silently Writing

Chapter 233 Taking the Blame: A Critical Combo

“Original Special Skill: Serpentine Step (Manu Ginobili Original).

Argentina star Ginobili's signature move, feel the passionate tango from the Pampas grasslands!

Equipment Requirements: Basketball IQ 95 (met), Offensive Insight 95 (met).

After equipping, when the host uses the Euro-step to finish, the inertia effect is reduced by 15%, the success rate of deceiving defensive players' center of gravity is increased by 10%, and the final step speed is increased by 10%."

As a plain basketball skill, the principle and usage of the Euro-step are not difficult.

However, if you have seen Ginobili and Wade's Euro-steps, then you know that a plain basketball skill can also be played with flair.

Because of his innate flexibility, coordination, and early years of playing in Europe, in order to better complete his finishes, Ginobili's Euro-step is not only unpredictable but also graceful, far beyond Harden's nightclub dance.

Unlike Ginobili, Wade's Euro-step relies on his explosive power to initiate, making Wade's Euro-step far more violent than the average person's.

Overall, anyone can learn basketball skills, but different talents will present two completely different pictures.

In the summer, with Frazier's help, in addition to learning low-post skills, Su Feng also had Frazier design a set of extremely fast, wide-ranging Euro-step upgrade plans based on his characteristics.

Because of Su Feng's habit of playing basketball in his previous life, his style is closer to Ginobili's when he upgrades his Euro-step.

Of course, if Ginobili is a grandmaster in Euro-steps, then Su Feng...

...can only be considered to have achieved some success.

After all, in NBA-level games, using a skill proficiently is not as simple as it looks.

Because of limitations in flexibility and coordination, Su Feng cannot yet be as enchanting as Ginobili.

Using a martial arts novel as a metaphor, if Su Feng's current "form" is already a 10, then his "spirit" is still lacking.

But even so, this season, when he uses the Euro-step to finish, it will be difficult for him not to gain fans.

It is worth mentioning that because "Serpentine Step" is also an offensive special skill in the system, after weighing the pros and cons, the four offensive special skills that Su Feng currently has equipped are:

Feng's Fadeaway, which doesn't take up an offensive special skill slot, Serpentine Step, a youth LeBron-like Crossover, and Xiaoyao Step.

Um...

Considering the practicality of "Meteor Dunk," Su Feng decisively abandoned this offensive special skill he created.

Because the special skills that Su Feng equips will only bring him bonus effects and will not affect his real-world skill usage...

So, compared to Xiaoyao Step, which can be frequently triggered when backing down in the low post, in Su Feng's view, "Meteor Dunk" can temporarily go to sleep in the special skill warehouse for a while.

Madison Square Garden.

Just as Su Feng "flashed" to avoid Oakley, he, whose body almost lost its balance, used his left hand to grab the ball and gently tossed the basketball towards the basket after his arm was fully extended.

Swish—!

2 to 0.

On TNT, Smith, who saw this scene, directly exclaimed, "Ooh-hoo-hoo, go home, ladies and gentlemen!

What is a 'phenomenon'? This is a 'phenomenon'!

Su just tricked the entire Knicks defense!"

Unfortunately, Su Feng couldn't hear Smith's commentary, otherwise, Su Feng would have given him a 10 out of 10.

On the court, after Su Feng scored the first two points of the game for the Knicks and caused a burst of exclamations in Madison Square Garden, it was the Knicks' turn to attack.

Van Gundy's own son, Ward, steadily dribbled the ball past half-court.

If the 76ers' offensive routines are not complicated, then these Knicks are not much better.

Ewing, retreating to the high post, completed a shot by jumping on Ratliff's face.

Clang—!

Speaking of which, this Ewing is even more tragic than Su Feng's previous life.

Because with Mutombo winning a championship, many fans believe that Ewing should be kicked out of the ranks of the Four Great Centers.

As the NBA's "Fifth Center," the damned "Big Gorilla" started the game by showing his respect with iron.

Turning around, with the Knicks tightening their defense in the paint, Su Feng chose to complete a mid-range shot from the 45-degree angle on the wing this time.

It's a pity that the basketball went wide.

"Big Mama," who was being taken on a back-and-forth run by Su Feng, was overjoyed when watching the 76ers' game footage before the game, thinking that Su Feng would definitely go head-to-head with him in this game.

However, how could Su Feng do as Johnson wished?

With Johnson's weight, Su Feng would be crazy to compete with him to see who has the bigger butt.

This season, the Knicks and 76ers both have an average of fewer than 90 points lost per game, and both teams' defenses can be called "torture kings."

Therefore, this defensive battle was full of a "philosophical" atmosphere from the start.

The players of the two teams, caught in a dilemma, were playing with difficulty under the god-like offensive tactics of their coaches.

On the 76ers' bench, as the first quarter progressed, Brown was very pleased to see the score remaining unchanged at 2 to 0.

On the Knicks' bench, Van Gundy felt that he had finally successfully cracked the 76ers' offensive tactics.

……

Clang, clang, clang!

On the court, after gracefully scoring the first two points of the game for the 76ers, Su Feng, who missed three shots in a row, brought unprecedented joy to Smith.

He laughed during the commentary, "Is Su planning to pay tribute to Michael Jordan?"

As the saying goes, you can dodge the first day, but you can't dodge the fifteenth.

Although Duncan went to the Celtics in this life, the "Old Rogue" still could not escape the fate of missing 27 shots in a single game.

Two days ago, in the Bulls' game against Boston, Jordan was 13 for 40, and at one point, he doubted his life.

In Su Feng's previous life, Jordan's single-game 27-miss record was originally created against the Spurs this season.

Rather than saying that the Spurs successfully limited the "Old Rogue," it was better to say that Jordan just couldn't make any shots at the time.

Of course, unlike the previous life, when Pippen was absent and Jordan had to rely on himself.

In this life, the reason why the "Old Rogue" went crazy with his shots in the game against the Celtics was purely because, under the praise of the Celtics' legends, Duncan, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame upon debut, was one of Jordan's hunting targets.

Therefore, on that night two days ago, Jordan, who wanted to tell Duncan that he was still the one in charge of the NBA, was completely desperate...

There was no way, even though Jordan maintained a good competitive state through hard training in the summer, the feeling of shooting was purely metaphysics.

Clang—!

On the court, after missing four consecutive shots, Su Feng looked at his big hands in confusion.

It's toxic!

Logically speaking, although Su Feng was very afraid of "Big Mama's" butt, Johnson really couldn't stop him from shooting.

So in these four consecutive attacks, Su Feng actually got quite good shooting opportunities.

On TNT, after seeing Su Feng miss four consecutive shots, Smith laughed:

"Su seems to look down on open shots. I think he should say to Larry Johnson, 'Hey, man, your defense is too loose, it makes me not know how to shoot!'"

At Madison Square Garden, Houston stepped forward and temporarily brought an end to this endless battle of missed shots.

Using his skilled running, Houston took a long two-point shot from the high post.

2 to 2.

On the 76ers' bench, Larry Brown frowned when he noticed Stackhouse's defensive lapse...

Conversely, on the 76ers' offense, because Iverson was absent, and under the premise that "Feng-ge Must Carry," Su Feng once again took the "burden" from the trembling Snow.

On the court, because the Knicks' defense was extremely tight at this time after his opening mountain-shaking, Su Feng feinted with the ball in one hand and went for another dry pull-up.

Johnson still couldn't keep up with his last step, but...

Clang—!

Su Feng: "......"

In the stands, Britney, who yawned, leaned directly on Lily's shoulder, "Basketball games are so boring."

Honestly, to Britney, why not just go listen to a drum set performance for this kind of clang, clang, clang movement back and forth?

At Madison Square Garden, the fans in the audience were watching more and more sleepily.

Swish—!

On the Knicks' side, after Ewing made his bunny hop shot, they successfully took the lead, 2 to 4.

Speaking of which, after playing for almost half of the first quarter, the score between the two sides was actually 2 to 4, can you believe it?

In the first quarter, the neutral fans who had been eagerly anticipating this game switched channels one after another as the two teams grinded back and forth.

Su Feng seemed to have been cursed in the first quarter, and after going 1 for 10, he finally ended a nearly 10-minute personal scoring drought through free throws.

Fortunately, relying on their resilient defense, coupled with the Knicks' own terrible offense, the 76ers only trailed 14 to 18 after the first quarter.

This season, if you were to say who is the happiest on the 76ers, it might be Big Ben.

Take this game as an example, Big Ben had already grabbed 10 rebounds after just the first quarter.

What is happiness?

In the simple mind of Big Ben, happiness is being Su Feng's sidekick.

Because by following Su Feng's side, Big Ben never has to worry about his rebound numbers.

It is worth mentioning that in order to further influence Su Feng, before Su Feng prepared to lead the substitutes onto the court in the second quarter, Brown also deliberately raised his voice to encourage Su Feng to shoot boldly and not lose his confidence in offense because of his 1 for 10 shooting in the first quarter.

Su Feng: "......"

Logically speaking, although Brown was indeed encouraging him, at this moment, Su Feng felt like he was being mocked.

As a shooter, how could Su Feng tolerate this?

Su Feng didn't believe it, could he really pay tribute to Jordan and miss 30 shots tonight?

……

In the second quarter, Su Feng started by giving Van Gundy's own son, Ward, a big block.

On the 76ers' bench, Brown seized the opportunity to educate the players after seeing this scene, "I always tell you to learn more from Su, why?

Because even if his touch is not good, Su will always be 100% committed on the defensive end."

On the court, McGee protected the second landing point, and after dribbling past half-court, he passed the "burden" to Young Hero Su without thinking.

It has to be said, daring to continue to take the "burden" after going 1 for 10, who knows how tall Su Feng's figure was in the eyes of this group of defensive tool men on the 76ers at this moment.

On the wing, looking at Childs appearing in front of him, Su Feng directly switched to butt-grinding mode.

However, just as Su Feng was about to turn around backward, the Knicks formed a double-team on him.

Van Gundy's offense may be poor, but he is definitely an expert in pseudo-zone defense.

Su Feng didn't think too much about this ball, because the Knicks' help defense came quickly. Not wanting to make a mistake, he had no choice but to turn around and shoot to the other side.

Childs' height and weight were not as good as Su Feng's, but his step-up was quick. Under his pressure, the difficulty of Su Feng's turnaround fadeaway was almost comparable to the "Old Rogue's" lying-down shot.

Swish—!

16 to 18!

How could the decisive and resolute Su Feng be shaken by a mere 1 for 10 shooting performance?

Besides, can a scorer missing shots be called missing shots?

He, Su Feng, would rather be a king who is killed by his own missed shots than an emperor who loses his country because of shirking responsibility.

On the court, the Knicks' offense was also not working.

Because the 76ers' substitutes were led by Su Feng, their defense was also at a grinding level even in the second unit.

McGee dribbled the ball past half-court.

Then, after hesitating for half a second, looking at Su Feng's trustworthy big elbow, this tool man once again flung the hot potato of a basketball to Su Feng.

This time, seeing that Childs had actually retreated half a step to defend him, Su Feng didn't think too much and fired directly from beyond the three-point line.

Swish—!

19 to 18!

Hey, it's true, just because he missed a few shots in a quarter, they actually treated him like Rondo?

On the court, the Knicks attacked, and the Knicks' veteran Dudley's high post jump shot missed. Su Feng grabbed the rebound and dribbled the ball to push the counterattack himself.

The Knicks retreated quickly, but no matter how fast they retreated, they couldn't stop Su Feng from throwing the ball as soon as he crossed half-court and reached the three-point line.

For Su Feng, who had developed the good habit that a one-on-one is an open shot, he would not miss this kind of fast-break three-pointer, even if Brown died on the spot.

Swish—!

22 to 18!

The originally silent Madison Square Garden immediately cheered after Su Feng scored 8 consecutive points.

That's just how the New York fans are.

They don't care who scores, as long as it looks good, they'll cheer for them.

On TNT, Smith changed his tune again. After Su Feng scored 8 consecutive points, he immediately switched to Su-praising mode:

"I have said more than once that if you underestimate Su in defense, then Su will treat you as an ATM, taking money like crazy."

On the Knicks' bench, Van Gundy started to feel depressed again after Su Feng scored 8 consecutive points unreasonably.

Because he really couldn't understand what was so mysterious about the 76ers' offense.

On the court, the Knicks continued their terrible touch from the first quarter in the second quarter.

Ward's layup after breaking through was successfully missed. Su Feng, who returned to the basket, completed a behind-the-head rebound right over the head of veteran Williams.

Originally, Williams was quite guilty for not being able to protect the rebound.

But when he looked back and saw that it was actually Su Feng who had grabbed the rebound over his head...

Williams was silent.

Feeling that he hadn't read enough "Emotional Intelligence," Williams decided to go back and learn the advanced card position techniques of the sewers from Big Ben and Ratliff.

On the court, Su Feng, who grabbed the rebound, launched another counterattack by dribbling the ball.

No one knows better than Su Feng how anxious the offense of this 76ers team is, so in order to protect the smiles of the defensive tool men, Su Feng was extremely resolute in this rare fast-break opportunity.

Swish—!

25 to 18!

After once again hitting Brown's chest painfully with a fast-break three-pointer, Su Feng, called a timeout for the Knicks!

King of the Burden, the King, if he doesn't even dare to take the burden, then what kind of basketball would he, Su Feng, be playing!

Even if "his strength is not enough," as long as his heart is resolute enough, then he, Su Feng, is "Jordan in the version of lag"!
