Chapter 450
Su Yan:???
You can keep pulling stunts for the sake of ratings, that's fine.
It's the All-Star game, after all, just for fun.
But... I beg you, can you not just pick on me?
O'Neal: No.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Another series of between-the-legs dribbles to find his rhythm; with the fans full of anticipation, O'Neal, holding the ball in his right hand, feinted a shot into a small hesitation move.
Su Yan took the bait and jumped.
Uh... to be accurate, Su Yan tearfully and intentionally took the bait to play along.
Otherwise... with O'Neal's sluggish crossover, how could it have escaped the insight of his 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】?
However.
This time, Su Yan wanted to turn the tables.
You want to pull a stunt, right?
Since it has to be done, why can't you be the background?
"Hehe!"
O'Neal saw Su Yan take flight and was overjoyed, immediately putting the ball down to accelerate, wanting to pull off a stylish hesitation crossover.
"Whoa~"
Su Yan jumped, O'Neal rushed out, and the fans let out a gasp.
Did O'Neal's stunt succeed again?
No.
Because... this time O'Neal got past Su Yan, but the basketball in his hand was left behind, swiped away by Su Yan.
"What?"
O'Neal, realizing it a beat late, felt a shock inside.
Just as Su Yan had slightly jumped, he spotted the opportunity, and with a "look-back steal" under the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】, he swiped the ball from behind O'Neal.
It was a steal.
But a steal from behind like that was truly stylish.
The roar of the fans was precisely because of Su Yan's incredible "look-back" steal.
"Whoosh!"
Su Yan's counterattack.
He went straight to the front court like a dragon, running faster and faster, shaking off all defenders, one-on-zero, challenging the rim, and then... a high-arcing layup off the glass.
He pushed off the ground and leaped high, his body arched like a fully drawn bow.
"Boom!"
Su Yan imitated McGrady, delivering another two-handed "self-pass-and-dunk."
Look-back steal + self-pass-and-dunk + arched bow, with these three combined, Su Yan's counterattack was several times cooler than McGrady's just moments ago.
"Boom!"
The fans' cheers were like a missile detonating in the deep sea, kicking up a hundred-meter wave that slammed into the arena, as if it were going to blow the roof off.
The fans' soaring enthusiasm was ignited once again.
Since he wanted to pursue stunts, he would follow through to the end.
Just a minute later, Su Yan brought the ball up himself, and then... after letting Big Ben come up to set a screen.
At the top of the arc, Su Yan faced O'Neal.
The fans were already anticipating how Su Yan would toy with O'Neal.
"Come on, kid, let me see what you've got."
O'Neal grinned with his big mouth.
He was quite cheerful; a "joker" was a fair assessment, and if you hung out with him, it would probably be very fun.
"You want to pull a stunt, right? Next, I'll show you something fun."
Su Yan smiled slightly.
As the words fell.
Su Yan moved the ball from his left hand to his right with a forward-leaning between-the-legs dribble, appearing to drive, but actually pulling it back, and then... he gathered the ball.
At the same time he gathered the ball.
Su Yan turned his whole body, facing away from the basket.
O'Neal:???
Facing away from the basket?
What is he doing?
The next instant.
Amidst the shock of countless fans who looked as if they had seen a ghost, Su Yan launched a 3-pointer with a back-to-the-basket shot!!!
