Chapter 744

Los Angeles Lakers starters: Point Guard: Chucky Atkins, Shooting Guard: Kobe Bryant, Small Forward: Caron Butler, Power Forward: Lamar Odom, Center: Chris Mihm.

"Jump ball!"

The jump ball between Yao and Chris Mihm.

A full 12-centimeter height difference.

Allowed Yao to beat Chris Mihm to the punch, swatting the basketball away first and winning the first offensive possession for the Bulls.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Su Yan pushed the ball up, stopped at the high post on the right, just thinking about how to attack.

"Step!"

Kobe stepped out and pounced on him.

He focused his eyes, staring at Su Yan, "Su Yan, the first encounter of the new season, let's have another good game.

This time, I think I will be the one laughing last."

"Is that so?!"

Su Yan smiled slightly, "Perhaps you only have the qualifications to say these words when you reach the season of the 'Dragon Slaying Battle'."

"Dragon Slaying Battle?!"

Kobe frowned, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.

"Ha..."

Su Yan smiled, too lazy to explain, pressed his center of gravity slightly lower, and said in a deep voice, "Come on, if you want to fight, then let's fight!"

As the sound fell.

Su Yan rushed out, actively seeking confrontation with Kobe, the astonishing power confrontation under 【Steel Strength】.

Just once.

Kobe, who couldn't hold on at all, could only retreat, but Kobe's defensive experience was also growing sturdily.

In this confrontation, he only used half his strength, so he still had plenty of room to control his retreating figure.

Although retreating.

He still maintained his center of gravity.

Seeing Su Yan rush over again, he also hurriedly followed on the flank, and the two rushed into the basket together.

If it were the beginning of last season.

Su Yan, facing Kobe who had completely followed, would definitely choose to use the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】 to predict his defense and then attack.

But now there was no need at all.

【Intermediate Swift Footwork】 + 【Intermediate Rubber Ejection】, made his speed burst and jumping ability not inferior to Kobe's at all.

"Step!"

Su Yan, who was half a body ahead, grabbed the ball and flew directly, over Kobe's side-pouncing block.

"Boom!"

Slammed the basketball into the basket with one hand.

It wasn't a face-to-face poster dunk, but it was a violent dunk completed under Kobe's strict defense.

Immediately following a possession.

Su Yan, holding the ball at the high post on the right, made a fake drive triple-threat; seeing Kobe didn't move, he took the ball and accelerated.

"Whoosh!"

Su Yan went directly past Kobe, rushed into the basket again, and made another unreasonable tomahawk dunk.

Su Yan, whose speed and jumping ability had been completely improved, was now more brutal in attacking the rim than last season.

"Boom!"

Two consecutive violent dunks made the fans shout for satisfaction, each emitting deafening cheers.

Su Yan ate Kobe twice in a row.

This wasn't over yet.

Just one minute later.

Su Yan and Kobe matched up again at the high post on the left, another duel between the absolute cores of the two teams.

This time?!

Su Yan changed to a fake shot triple-threat this time, the 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】 insightfully observing, feeling the sign that Kobe's center of gravity was tilting upward.

He didn't hesitate at all.

Immediately accelerated to break through to the right by one step, arrived at the elbow area on the left, and pulled up for a jump shot after just one step.

"What? Damn it!"

Kobe, whose reaction was completely half a beat slow, hurriedly twisted his body and just chased up, but Su Yan had already pulled up for a jump shot.

"Hah!"

Kobe shouted as he blocked, but it was already too late; the basketball flew out far beyond the reach of his fingers.

The rotating basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air, accompanied by a crisp piercing sound.

Su Yan hit this jump shot under Kobe's defense again.

Attacked 3 times in a row, and Kobe couldn't defend a single attack.

And in transition.

When Kobe faced Su Yan, his triple-threat was all under the gaze of Su Yan's 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】.

"Fake shot!"

When Kobe raised the basketball, appearing to be about to shoot, Su Yan saw through it at a glance and didn't jump at all.

"Fake drive!"

When Kobe stepped forward, appearing to be about to put the ball down and accelerate, Su Yan still saw through it and stood in place, not moving at all.

Kobe's scalp was numb; he couldn't see a single flaw in Su Yan, and he didn't know how to launch an attack.

"What's going on?!"

Kobe's expression was solemn, but the offensive time was passing, and he also needed to score on Su Yan to prove himself.

No time to think.

Holding the ball with his left hand, Kobe pressed his center of gravity low and accelerated out; Su Yan followed without haste.

Seeing through Kobe's attack in advance, and his speed not being slower than Kobe's, he could naturally keep Kobe's attack under his defense.

Couldn't attack.

Kobe couldn't attack at all.

However... Kobe, whose strength had improved and whose technique was becoming more and more mature, also had strong attack as his offensive means.

"Screech!"

Kobe, who rushed to the low post on the left, stopped suddenly, forcibly pulled up for a fadeaway + drift, and threw the basketball in his hand.

The difficulty was extremely high, and it was another beautiful fadeaway jump shot.

Once it hit, it would be a Top 10 level play, an offensive play that would gain fans.

And such a shot that required extremely strong core strength, ordinary players couldn't defend at all, and could only look up and pray that Kobe would miss.

However.

Su Yan was different; he could see through Kobe's attack and jump a step ahead before he shot.

And jumped higher than Kobe.

So what would happen?!

"Slap!"

Su Yan, who pounced up, stretched his long arms and, the moment Kobe released the ball, swatted the basketball away to the 5th-floor stands with one slap.

"Whoa~"

This bloody volleyball-style block made the audience emit bursts of exclamation, and the fans were stunned.

"What?!"

Kobe was shocked.

His fadeaway was so crazy that ordinary people couldn't block it, and he also believed that only he might miss the shot.

As for being blocked?

Theoretically, it didn't exist at all.

Even Su Yan last season had no way to deal with such a shot from Kobe.
