Chapter 112
【112】Su Mo vs. LeBlanc, a dunk feast!
Due to the time difference between the east and west of the United States, the game between the Lakers and the Suns will be played more than an hour later than the game between the Warriors and the Cavaliers.
Before the game between the Warriors and the Cavaliers and the Lakers and the Suns had a result, the excited fans of both teams began to look forward to the last game between the Warriors and the Lakers. If the Warriors finally beat the Cavaliers, and Kobe led the Los Angeles Lakers to win the Suns led by Nash, then the Warriors will take a 15-game winning streak to face the defending champions with a 16-game winning streak. It
's full of gimmicks and makes people infinitely fascinated.
But that's all for later, let's go back to the Quicken Loans Center.
The first quarter of the game between the Warriors and the Cavaliers is going on brilliantly.
After Su Mo opened the game with a dunk over"Shaq" O'Neal, the Cavaliers immediately called a timeout.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers still let LeBlanc defend Su Mo on the defensive end, and also strengthened the defense of other players under the basket besides the center to try to prevent Su Mo from wreaking havoc on the basket.
But even so, Su Mo was still not afraid of the iron wall in the restricted area.
10 minutes and 24 seconds.
The Warriors' offense, Su Mo received Curry's pass, facing LeBlanc, his hands did not stop, taking advantage of LeBlanc's unstable position, and quickly attacked. After a fake, Su Mo made a prompt decision and directly used Wade's phantom step, instantly passing James and facing"Big Shark" O'Neal again under the basket.
This time Su Mo did not choose a tough dunk, but a fake move to deceive the opponent, then moved sideways under the basket, and easily jumped up and dunked.
""Bang!"
Seeing Su Mo fooling James and O'Neal at the same time, Mike Brown, the head coach of the Cavaliers standing on the sidelines, looked solemn and sighed helplessly.
Is this Su Mo a human being? He is just a rookie who has just entered the league. How can he have such comprehensive skills?
Even LeBron James, who has been in the league for six or seven years, is probably not as comprehensive as Su Mo in terms of breakthrough skills under the basket.
This kid from China gives people a terrible feeling.
In the CCTV NBA live broadcast room, Coach Zhang smiled excitedly and praised Su Mo's wonderful goal.
"First he passed James, then shook off O'Neal, Su Mo's expression was perfect!"
Yang Yi echoed,"Su Mo was in perfect form at the start today, and he is very likely to score high points in this game, but if he wants to win the game, he must rely on the performance of his teammates. If Su Mo fights alone, it will be troublesome!"
Back on the court, James' eyes were cold.
Su Mo's two consecutive dunks made James look a little embarrassed. He had to fight back with a strong performance to maintain the home advantage.
10 minutes and 09 seconds.
LeBron was facing Su Mo in the frontcourt. Despite continuous physical collisions, he could not gain any advantage.
This guy, how could his physical strength be so strong?
LeBron was a little speechless, but he still relied on his experience to fake past Su Mo, broke into the basket directly, and dunked successfully.
""Boom!"
With LeBlanc's slam dunk, the fans at the Quicken Loans Center also cheered. At
8 minutes and 34 seconds, Su Mo cut to the basket without the ball, received a quick pass from Ellis, and slammed it again. At
7 minutes and 22 seconds,
James grabbed a defensive rebound, accelerated to the frontcourt, and shocked the audience with a thunderous slam dunk. At
6 minutes and 59 seconds,
Curry missed a three-pointer from the outside, and Su Mo rushed into the penalty area, grabbed the frontcourt rebound over the heads of O'Neal and James, and scored a strong tip-in.
At 5 minutes and 51 seconds,
James cut to the basket after passing the ball, and communicated with Williams. He received the pass and dunked the ball. James was extremely excited after scoring the goal. He slapped his chest and roared to the sky, and said to Su Mo domineeringly:"Su, this is the home court of my little emperor!"
The rest of the first quarter almost became a duel between Su Mo and James. There were all kinds of alley-oop slam dunks, breakthrough slam dunks, shocking tip-ins, and everything else.
Su Mo couldn't defend against LeBlanc.
LeBlanc was also unable to limit Su Mo's scoring.
On the commentary stand, Mike Brin applauded:"It's so shocking, Su Mo and LeBlanc exploded against each other, the most comprehensive slam dunk masters in the league, the audience is blessed!"
Van Gundy applauded and said with emotion:"A great slam dunk feast, Su Mo and LeBlanc are the absolute protagonists!"
In the last three minutes of the first quarter, LeBlanc stole the ball from Curry, who was in poor form, twice on the defensive end, and both of them turned into fast break dunks.
In this way, the Cavaliers instantly surpassed the Warriors by 3 points.
Warriors coach Don Nelson quickly called a timeout.
Except for Su Mo's performance as usual, the condition of other players was really worrying. Ellis, Curry and Jackson all seemed to be sleepwalking on the court, which made Nelson very dissatisfied, but understandable.
After all, this was the Warriors' fifth away game in 9 days.
Feeling the impact of the"little emperor", even Su Mo was helpless.
The atmosphere in the home stadium was pushed to a climax.
"Haha, Su Mo is just so-so. He is still a little inferior to our 'little emperor'!"
"Su Mo is not bad, it’s just that the other players of the Warriors are too weak. The one who stole the ball from LeBron was Curry and Ellis, not Su Mo!"
"We must win this game, come on LeBlanc, give Su Mo and the Warriors a head start and show them who is the league's super team!"
After the timeout, Su Mo immediately responded with a dunk, keeping the score close.
However, LeBlanc only took ten seconds to perform another dunk.
Su Mo vs. LeBlanc, the dunk feast continued to escalate, and the fans were fascinated and excited.
After the first quarter, the Warriors (29): (31) Cavaliers, temporarily trailing by 2 points away from home.
Su Mo played the full 12 minutes of the first quarter, 8 of 11 shots, 19 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
If it weren't for the lack of support from his teammates, Su Mo would have more assists and the team would even win. The Cavaliers had the advantage of leading.
However, Curry's three-pointer and Ellis' breakthrough were not very efficient. The two of them only made 1 of 5 shots in the first quarter.
On the contrary, Anthony Tolliver, the center player who was promoted to the starting lineup for the first time, performed quite well under the basket. He made 2 of 3 shots in the first quarter and scored 4 points and 3 rebounds.
On the Cavaliers side, LeBron James was in full swing and played the entire first quarter. He scored 18 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. He played against Su Mo strongly. His seven dunks were bloody and violent, which was breathtaking.
Being completely beaten by an undrafted player from China?
