Chapter 692

Not secure at all.

"Hmm?"

He felt a trace of panic in his heart, but when his peripheral vision swept over Su Yan, he suddenly noticed something unusual.

What?

He discovered that Su Yan was panting uncontrollably; he looked very, very tired.

But that was to be expected.

A full ten people, all strong, NBA-level players, rotating to defend Su Yan alone for an hour or two.

No matter who it was, they wouldn't be able to handle it.

Su Yan was the same.

The key... Su Yan didn't rest much, which would only consume more stamina.

Right?

Right.

"Huff... huff... huff"

Su Yan was panting uncontrollably; that was something that couldn't be solved no matter how many energy drinks he drank or how many times he wiped his sweat.

Tired.

Su Yan was truly tired at this moment.

A two-person game.

No.

Many times, it was just Su Yan's one-man game.

The intensity was truly high; many times, he felt he was playing basketball on sheer willpower.

He needed rest, he really needed a little rest to replenish a bit of stamina.

Head coach Del Harris also saw it, and he fully understood Su Yan, knowing how tired and how hard he was working right now.

"Uh..."

After thinking for a moment, he said to everyone, "Su Yan is too tired right now; he needs time to rest and catch his breath.

But.

Su Yan cannot leave the court; he needs to stand on the court to give 'Dream Team VI' a sufficiently large deterrent.

But we also need to let Su Yan rest.

What to do?!

Then we can only let Su Yan attack as little as possible, defend as little as possible, and just stand on the court to rest.

Give him...?!

Saying this, Coach Del Harris looked at Su Yan.

Su Yan held up two fingers, "Give me two minutes!"

Coach Del Harris nodded, "After the timeout, the next two minutes are up to you all to share a little pressure for Su Yan.

You don't need to play amazingly; just try your best to keep the score stable.

There is only the last half-quarter left.

Let's grit our teeth and hold on together, hold on until Su Yan returns as a king and takes the game away in one wave.

Let us lift the gold medal together!

Guys, do you have confidence!!!"

"Oh..."

"We must have confidence!"

"Su Yan and Yao have already fought to this extent; if we just endure the last two minutes, why can't we do it!

We can definitely do it!"

"Coach, don't worry, for Su Yan, for Yao, for the glory of our entire Dragon Country men's basketball team.

We will definitely give it our all and swear to defend these last two minutes."

"Charge!"

All the Dragon Country players were high in fighting spirit.

After the timeout.

"Swish!"

Wang Zhizhi took the lead with a mid-range shot, narrowing the gap to one point, proving that he could contribute a meager effort for Su Yan and China to win the championship.

Good, are they up?!

It seems so, but not entirely.

Because.

Only this mid-range shot went in; next, while Su Yan was resting on the court, the Dragon Country team's offense and defense were still not cohesive.

The gap in absolute strength.

This is not something that can be made up for just by talking or raising morale.

Even.

Even if they transformed into "surprise troops" and had an outburst, it still wouldn't be enough for "Dream Team VI".

It won't work.

It simply won't work.

Fortunately... in the coach's arrangement, Liu Wei controlled the pace slightly, compressing the time of each possession as much as possible.

Giving Su Yan the maximum time to rest.

When the US team's defensive intensity increased.

When Liu Wei found he couldn't handle the ball well, he quickly gave the ball to Yao, not in the paint.

But on the perimeter.

It seemed only on the perimeter would the defensive pressure from the US team be relatively smaller.

After all, for the 226cm Yao, his offensive threat on the perimeter was almost non-existent.

Time was passing.

The two minutes were about to run out.

Su Yan had rested enough as well.

But what about the score?

In just two minutes, with Wang Zhizhi hitting a mid-range shot first, they were still trailing by nine points at the end.

Very scary.

But this is the power of "Dream Team VI".

At least when facing a team without Su Yan, this year's incomplete "Dream Team VI" still had such powerful dominance.

The pressure on Dragon Country was immense.

Time would soon be down to only 4 minutes, and again, having Su Yan alone play against the entire "Dream Team VI" to tie the 9-point gap, and then overtake and win.

This difficulty was also heaven-defying.

"Although it's difficult, I must fight. At this moment... the gold medal under national glory, and the 【Intermediate Swift Footwork】 under the main quest.

I want them all!!!"

After resting for a while and catching his breath, Su Yan was ready to burn the bridges, fight with his back to the wall, and fight to the death.

But just at this moment.

Yao, holding the ball on the perimeter, seeing he couldn't find teammates and couldn't distribute the ball well, with the 24-second shot clock about to expire.

What to do?

In the crisis, he decisively chose to shoot a three-pointer from the arc top himself.

"Three-pointer? I won't even give you a chance for a three-pointer!"

Stoudemire, seeing a big center like Yao shooting a three-pointer, felt a trace of disdain rise in his heart.

But even so, he still closed out. Further increasing the pressure on Yao's shot, making this attempt even less likely to have any hope, perhaps even an airball.

As a result.

Yao, not too panicked, shot decisively, and the basketball flew out from above Stoudemire's fingertips.

It traced a beautiful parabola in the air, in the astonished gaze of Stoudemire after he turned back. ===== CHAPTER 694 =====
