Chapter 196
"Ahhh~ what am I doing."
Kittles, frozen in place, roared in frustration.
Su Yan repeatedly shook him off with ease and scored on him, giving him the illusion that he could defend Su Yan but just didn't do it well.
This made him blame himself.
Increasingly irritable.
"Hmph!"
Kittles snorted, a sharp glint in his eyes, "Next time, the next possession, I will definitely defend that kid Su Yan."
However.
Just when he was full of ambition and high spirits.
Sideline.
Coach Lawrence Frank poured a bucket of cold water, "Kerry, you go guard Pippen, let Richard, who is younger and has a physical advantage, chase Su Yan."
"Ah~"
Kerry Kittles was stunned, then nodded with a bitter smile.
Richard Jefferson came over to comfort him, "Su Yan's 'predictive playing style' is slow, giving you the illusion that you can defend it.
In reality.
It's quite tricky.
I'm not even sure if I can defend it."
"Really?"
"Really."
Kittles, who knew Su Yan well, couldn't be entirely sure, but with Richard Jefferson saying so, he felt much better.
On the court.
Kidd brought it up, found Martin following on the other side with a behind-the-back pass during the drive, attacking the basket directly, attracting help defense from Yao and Pippen.
"Whoosh~"
Moving to the right corner, Kittles caught the ball and raised his hand for a three-pointer.
Although he couldn't defend Su Yan, he himself was from the '96 Golden Generation, the eighth overall pick shooter, whose popularity once surpassed his peer Peja.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air.
Perfectly.
"Swish!"
Swish.
Kittles' handsome three-pointer.
But... this was also because Kidd connected the team and sent a good pass, allowing Kittles to have a great finishing opportunity after the secondary pass.
It also helped Kittles stabilize his mindset.
The game continued.
Su Yan brought it up himself, one of the 'Three Musketeers', an important part of the Nets' wing, Richard Jefferson, who was physically fit and young, came up.
He acted as the second line of defense against Su Yan.
The effect?
Still the same.
Under the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】, Su Yan could still see through his defense in advance, attacking unhurriedly, and completing the finish.
Not working.
Richard Jefferson couldn't defend him either.
What can the Nets do?
Keep switching.
Let another member of the 'Three Musketeers'.
The 2000 number one pick, power forward Kenyon Martin, who had even more explosive physical talent, apply greater defensive intensity to Su Yan.
He acted as the third line of defense against Su Yan.
The effect?
Still not working.
Su Yan could still score on him, and... as always, he attacked slowly, but he was able to score.
No way.
Although the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】 allowed Su Yan to score.
But his current hard-core physical talent wasn't enough, his explosiveness just wasn't enough.
But this didn't hinder scoring.
And this slow "predictive playing style" always managed to fake out opponents and complete the finish, which was enough.
It was very cool, making many fans yearn for and like it.
Before: Opponents looked down on Su Yan, didn't defend seriously, letting Su Yan score easily one after another.
Now: Su Yan could still score easily one after another in the face of constantly rising high-intensity defense, why is this?!
Clearly.
Because of the 【Beginner · Mid-range Throw】 ability, having a mid-range shot made his offensive methods diverse, and his finishing choices diverse.
Opponents were even trickier.
Then... even if the defense increased, in a one-on-one situation, with the blessing of the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】, Su Yan could still score easily.
Can't stop him.
Simply can't defend him.
