Chapter 860: Hard to handle! Steady and always having a point attacking!

~5 min read 952 words

Time: 9 PM.

Warm-up finished.

The Bulls vs Spurs Finals G1... arrived as scheduled.

Both sides' starters began to take the court.

Chicago Bulls starters: PG: Hinrich, SG: Su Yan, SF: Iguodala, PF: Chandler, C: Yao.

San Antonio Spurs starters: PG: Parker, SG: Ray Allen, SF: Bowen, PF: Duncan, C: Nesterovic.

"jump ball!"

The jump ball between Yao and Nesterovic.

"Drink!"

Yao roared, with the belief of winning the championship, jumped with all his might, combined with his absolutely suppressing height, allowing him to beat Nesterovic to it.

Slapped the basketball away.

Su Yan caught it, pushed to the front court, playing the first attack for the Bulls, and also... the first round of offense in this year's finals.

Pushed to the right arc top.

Facing... Bowen's first line of defense.

Su Yan glanced at him faintly, with a look of disgust, but without a trace of fear, and even... lost the three-point attack he originally wanted.

"Whoosh!"

Stepped and accelerated.

Rushed out.

Took the initiative to find Bowen, confronted him, and under the infusion of 【Iron Strength】... dropped his shoulder to give him a heavy physical confrontation.

"Bang!"

One confrontation, Bowen retreated two steps.

Half of his chest felt like it had been smashed by a rock under the impact, painful and grimacing, but his defensive skills still made him grit his teeth and pounce again.

Thus.

Just in time for Su Yan's second, more powerful charge.

"Thud!"

Bowen was knocked to the ground.

Referee?

Ignored it.

Su Yan looked down from above, coldly glanced at Bowen, and then... rushed in, caught the ball one step inside the restricted area and flew up.

Yao contained Duncan, Su Yan faced the weak Nesterovic.

"Boom!"

Under 【Intermediate Rubber Catapult】, Su Yan, like a rocket launching, slammed the basketball into the rim over him.

Su Yan came up and knocked down "Dirty Player" Bowen, dunked over Nesterovic, sounding the opening victory for the Bulls in the finals.

Transition offense.

Parker pushed over, landed at the arc top, Duncan screened for Ray Allen, the latter circled out from the right baseline... caught the ball.

Su Yan chased after him.

Parker gave it to Bowen on the other side, transferred it to Nesterovic under the basket, and then passed it out to Parker who was cutting to the free-throw line.

Pass after pass, dazzling.

When the Bulls thought Parker was the final finisher and Iguodala chased to defend, Parker gave a bounce pass again.

Who?!

"Slap!"

Duncan caught the ball under the basket, jumped up, and easily hit the bank shot.

The following round.

It was still the pick-and-roll cooperation between Parker and Duncan, Ray Allen's movement attracted perimeter defense, giving Bowen in the left baseline an opportunity.

"Whoosh!"

Lifted his hand for a three-pointer.

Open shot.

Swish.

Immediately after... it was still the usual continuous passing and cutting, looking like no one held the ball for more than two seconds.

But there were very few turnovers.

This is the team basketball under the Spurs' training.

Constant passing always leads to the best opportunities.

Ray Allen, who was feinting again and again, caught the ball at the right arc top again... lifted his hand for a standard and beautiful three-pointer.

Hand up, knife down.

"Swish!"

Swish.

The Spurs' positional offense was efficient and pleasing to the eye.

Of course.

The Spurs played well, and the Bulls... played well too.

Once Su Yan had a one-on-one opportunity, no matter which Spurs player he faced, he could form a mismatch.

No double-teaming.

He had countless ways to score.

Even against "dirty thing" Bowen, Su Yan decisively gave him violent confrontation, and he couldn't withstand it; the only one who suffered in a head-on collision was him.

Su Yan was like "the Jordan of the current era", no, an existence even more powerful than Jordan.

Even the Spurs.

Still no one could limit his scoring.

The key... on the defensive end, Su Yan could also give no small defensive interference to whoever he encountered, even the inside player Duncan.

Violent perimeter encirclement.

Inside 【Eye of the Heavenly Emperor】 prediction and steal.

The Spurs didn't have players with super-strong one-on-one ability like Iverson and McGrady in the 76ers; in one-on-one defense, he could lock down any Spurs player.

This is the dominance of "DPOY" level defense.

Both offense and defense were unsolvable.

All the Spurs players, upon encountering Su Yan, could only go around him, only go around him.

Does that mean... even if the Bulls face the Spurs, they will still lead, and will gradually gain a large lead.

No.

The situation was not like this.

When Su Yan found Parker, the ball would be transferred to Ray Allen's hands through constant movement, avoiding Su Yan, letting him attack.

When Su Yan found Ray Allen, the latter also didn't stick to the ball at all, immediately and extremely decisively distributing the basketball.

Either finding Bowen, or finding Parker, or Duncan under the basket, or even... "Demon Blade" Ginobili who rotated in, etc.

Letting them finish.

Although they didn't have the ability to solve the game alone, they definitely had one-on-one ability, plus the constant operation of team basketball.

There was always a player avoiding Su Yan who could find an opportunity.

And... seize the opportunity.

This situation looked like... Su Yan, with his super-strong defense, could chase all the Spurs players like a hawk catching chickens.

But.

Running and running, the Spurs could score, and there was always a point standing out to score.

The existence of Ray Allen.

The defender not only had to watch Duncan inside, but also not give Ray Allen an opportunity outside, which made the Spurs' offensive space very large. ===== CHAPTER 862 =====
