Silently Writing
Chapter 625 Two Dunks Ignite the Era!
In the Lakers' second unit, don't let Vujacic's handsome looks fool you. On the basketball court, for the most part, a player's looks and skills are inversely proportional, except for oddballs like Su Feng.
Vujacic, who was supposed to be guarding Ariza, was probably still thinking about the girl he had in his arms last night. Su Feng was sure that this kind of lapse would earn him a death stare from Kobe in a moment.
Inside, Ariza deftly received Su Feng's bounce pass.
But...
Just as Su Feng turned to retreat on defense...
Clang!
Su Feng: "..."
What the hell!
You can even miss a layup off the backboard under the basket?
On the court, watching Ariza successfully convert his brilliant pass into a rebound...
At that moment, Su Feng really wanted to know which river in Los Angeles had the coldest bottom.
Inside the key, Walton secured the rebound for the Lakers.
Kobe stepped forward to receive the ball, while the other Lakers players quickly advanced past the half-court line.
At this time, looking at Su Feng, who was staring fiercely at Ariza, Kobe couldn't help but complain, "So many years have passed...
I didn't expect you still like to pressure your teammates with your eyes."
Su Feng: "..."
On the court, under Kobe's criticism, how could Su Feng have imagined that Kobe was actually himself?
What's it like to be criticized by Kobe for using your eyes to pressure your teammates?
Staples Center, Lakers counterattack.
Because the Heat retreated quickly enough, Kobe switched to dribbling to slow down the pace.
At the high post, Turiaf took the initiative to come up to the arc to screen for Kobe.
This summer, after receiving humanitarian aid from the Lakers, Turiaf was finally able to land in the NBA after undergoing surgery to treat a condition that had caused him to fail his physical.
And if Su Feng remembered correctly, in the original Lakers team, Turiaf was also one of the few players who could call Kobe "brother."
Because when Turiaf first participated in Lakers training, Kobe thoughtfully placed a pair of his signature shoes in the French youngster's locker.
This gift not only moved Turiaf deeply, but also made him a devout Kobe fan.
In Su Feng's previous life, some Kobe fans even complained that before Gasol arrived, Turiaf was the most reliable player on the Lakers to catch Kobe's passes.
However, compared to these widely circulated stories...
Turiaf actually had another nickname in the NBA.
And that was...
"Top Human Biochemical Weapon."
On the court, although this wasn't the first time Su Feng had encountered a player with a strong body odor in a game...
But compared to Duncan...
At the high post, when Turiaf drifted to his side...
You might not believe it if I told you.
Su Feng almost threw up his overnight meal from his stomach at that moment.
In Su Feng's original timeline, Yi Jianlian shared this interesting story through the media after almost being suffocated by the smell under Turiaf's armpit in a game between the Chinese men's basketball team and the French men's basketball team.
As a result, at the time, a considerable number of fans online thought that Yi Jianlian was making excuses for not daring to engage in close physical combat with Turiaf during the game.
But tonight...
No cap...
Just with Turiaf's odor...
Doesn't Yi Jianlian, who dared to engage in close physical combat with him in the game, deserve the title of "real man"?
No way...
Under the attack of Turiaf's biochemical weapon, Su Feng's reaction was obviously half a beat slower at that moment.
So at the high post, Kobe seized the opportunity to penetrate into the Heat's interior.
Inside the key, Walton took Haslem away in advance through his movement.
And veteran Mourning was still on his way back on defense, because he had just been taken out by Turiaf.
Therefore, Staples Center, a sunny avenue appeared in front of Kobe.
At the sideline, Nicholson had already raised his hands at this moment.
And the cup of hot coffee he had just bought in his hand was all spilled on the young female companion next to him.
Soar!
Kobe!
Do you see that damn hoop?
Give us the ball...
Slam it in hard!
On the court, under the gaze of nearly 20,000 Lakers fans, Kobe, who leapt into the air, swung his arm in a windmill motion at this moment.
If Kobe successfully dunked this ball...
Then this would definitely become a dunk that would go down in history!
However, just as Kobe's windmill dunk was about to be completed...
Beep!
Beep!
Beep!
Alarm, alarm!
An unidentified flying object is rapidly approaching Los Angeles!
Heavens!
Earth!
What kind of superhuman physical fitness is this that allowed Su Feng to catch up with Kobe in the blink of an eye?
"If you want to humiliate me, then you better take advantage of this moment to dunk on my head a few more times...
Because in the future, I'm afraid you'll never be able to dunk in front of me again!"
Inside the three-second zone, looking at the palm that suddenly appeared in front of him...
In that instant, Kobe's thoughts were involuntarily taken back to his high school days.
In this life, Kobe had witnessed Su Feng's entire growth process.
Do you know why Kobe had never dared to slack off in his training in the past decade?
Because Kobe knew...
In this league, there was a man waiting for him to catch up to him.
Just like...
That man had chased after him.
"Su, it's true that you are far superior to me in every way right now.
But, so what?"
In front of the TV, watching Kobe, who had single-handedly blasted open the GOAT, the young Cleveland monarch had never been as excited as he was tonight since entering the league.
Because tonight, Kobe had proven to the world...
The GOAT...
Can be blasted open!
"Back then, you proved to us in Chicago that Michael Jordan could be defeated by mortals.
And now, it's my turn to prove to the world...
That you, who is already the God of Basketball, can also be defeated by mortals." On the court, after landing from the dunk, Kobe said with a solemn expression as he looked at Su Feng.
"He blasted open the GOAT! Did you see that? My Uncle Kobe blasted open the GOAT!"
In a corner of the Staples Center stands, Stephen Curry said with an excited expression.
"Basketball, this sport is just too fascinating."
And on the sidelines, even as a Maple Leaf fan, Klay Thompson couldn't help but feel the surge of passion in his chest at that moment. (Maple Leaf = Su Feng fan)
Since Su Feng could use seventeen cards to kill Michael Jordan in the past, then why couldn't Kobe grab this landlord today? (Seventeen Cards is a reference to a popular card game in China.)
In basketball novels, the situation where the protagonist instantly kills everything and ignores the efforts of the stars of the same era as the protagonist will never happen in reality.
Because, in reality, no matter how much you criticize these supermen...
They won't lie down and let you do whatever you want.
In Los Angeles, the first shot of resistance against the brutal rule of Emperor Feng has been fired. (Emperor Feng is a reference to Su Feng, Feng being his name.)
Staples Center, in the cheers of nearly 20,000 Lakers fans that exploded throughout California, Kobe completely ignited this era with a windmill dunk that would be recorded in history.
"MVP——!!"
"MVP——!!"
"MVP——!!"
And on the court, just as Kobe was enjoying the cheers from the entire arena, Su Feng stroked his hair and said to him, "Kobe, if you know me well enough, then you should know...
I have never thought of myself as some 'God of Basketball' like Michael Jordan...
Snapping my fingers to flatten half the universe?
That kind of scene that only exists in comics can't possibly happen in reality.
I... am me.
I am Su Feng, that's all."
On the court, the Heat had possession.
Ginobili dribbled the ball past half-court.
Su Feng circled from the left wing to the right side of the court to receive the ball.
And at the same time, when Duncan, who had not left after finishing the Christmas battle with the Sixers, noticed the close-up expression on Su Feng's face on the TV screen...
Little Duncan subconsciously covered his chest.
Although more than a year had passed since that protracted five-overtime game against the Heat, Duncan still remembered that night...
The bone-chilling pain in his chest.
As the player in this league who had the most say in playing against Su Feng, at this moment, no one knew better than Duncan...
What that kind of focus and seriousness on Su Feng's face meant.
Thump, thump, thump.
And at Staples Center, watching Su Feng's unhurried continuous crossover dribbling...
Kobe, who also knew Su Feng very well, hurriedly adjusted his mentality.
Because Kobe knew...
The man standing in front of him at this moment...
Was his strongest form.
The surrounding air seemed to freeze at this moment.
The Lakers fans who were still shouting MVP, MVP a few seconds ago all held their breath.
On the court, Devon George and Walton had prepared to fill in for Kobe at any time.
And this was not because they didn't believe that Kobe could defend Su Feng one-on-one.
It was just that the powerful aura that Su Feng exuded at this moment...
Involuntarily attracted everyone's attention.
Just like when Michael Jordan was playing one-on-one, there were clearly ten people on the court, but everyone could only see him.
Thump thump thump!
And at the high post, as Su Feng's dribbling rhythm became faster and faster...
In that instant, even though Su Feng hadn't started to break through yet, Kobe subconsciously took half a step back.
In Su Feng's original timeline, many fans often had the feeling that the defensive players were very stupid when watching Jordan's highlight reels.
Because Jordan hadn't even started to attack yet, and these defensive players had already revealed their defensive positions.
But actually...
That was just because Jordan's frequency far exceeded that of ordinary people, causing the defensive players to often make wrong judgments.
To put it bluntly.
All martial arts under the heavens.
Only speed can break it!
On the court, Su Feng reacted quickly in the instant that Kobe revealed a flaw.
And on the wing...
When George and Walton wanted to fill in for Kobe...
They then discovered...
Su Feng's first step...
Was so fast that it far exceeded their imagination!
"To be honest, among all the players I have coached, Michael can only be ranked third in terms of his first step breakthrough with the ball."
This summer, when chatting with Mancias and Frazier, Grover had discussed with these two who was the player with the fastest first step in NBA history.
And upon hearing this, Mancias, who was curious at the time, immediately asked, "Then Tim... who is the player with the fastest first step breakthrough in NBA history in your mind?"
"Once, I thought it was Grant Hill.
Because in the technical aspect of the first step with the ball, I once thought that Grant Hill would become the benchmark for the next few decades.
Until...
I met Su."
The camera returns to Staples Center.
On the court, in an instant, Su Feng swept all the way to the penalty area!
At this moment, Kobe became the only player in this arena who had the opportunity to stop Su Feng.
Because when defending Su Feng just now...
Kobe had never thought from the beginning that he could defend Su Feng's first step.
However, when Kobe tried to block Su Feng, who had already jumped up, from behind...
Kobe found out...
Su Feng's height was still rising!
From the dunk prince of the past to the dunk master of today.
Is this the height you are at now, Su?
When you reach the top,
You can see all the mountains are small.
Bang--!
Staples Center.
As a meteor streaked across the night sky of Staples,
Su Feng also used his practical actions to formally respond to Kobe's dunk just now!
At the same time, on TNT, Barkley held his head in his hands and said, "My God! What kind of two players are these!
Without a doubt, tonight, just with these two dunks, the fans who were lucky enough to buy tickets for this game have earned back the ticket price!"
Inside the stadium, the Lakers fans who were cheering for Kobe in the previous moment were now silent.
"How many points do you give this dunk?" On the court, after picking up the basketball on the ground and throwing it to Kobe, Su Feng said with a smile.
"10 points, both the power and speed are perfect. This ball is perfect." Looking at Su Feng, Kobe touched his chin and commented.
After a pause, Kobe also asked, "Then how many points do you give my dunk just now?"
"9 points, no more." Su Feng patted Kobe on the shoulder and said.
"9 points?" Upon hearing this, Kobe immediately became anxious.
Because in his opinion, he had given Su Feng 10 points, so why did Su Feng only give him 9 points?
"Well... I gave you 1 point less because I'm afraid you'll be proud." Looking at Kobe's anxious look, Su Feng added with a smile.
At this time, a look of relief appeared on Kobe's face.
On the sidelines, in front of the TV.
At that moment, Vanessa and Brittany not only didn't think this game was good-looking...
And...
They even felt again in their hearts that they were superfluous existences for Kobe and Su Feng.
On the court, the game continued.
In the second quarter, after these two wonderful dunks, the Heat, who were stronger overall, gradually gained the upper hand.
At halftime, the Heat led 67-56.
But just like Charles Barkley said...
No matter how this game develops next...
Just with these two dunks in the second quarter.
This game has already been worth the price of admission.
"Su, you said that if Jerry (West) had hardened his heart back then and selected you to the Lakers, would I already have ten championship rings now?" During the halftime break, looking at Su Feng, O'Neal asked with a curious expression.
And upon hearing this, Su Feng also fell into deep thought about the question raised by O'Neal...
