NBA: Become stronger by dunking

Chapter 133



【133】Stalemate? No, Su Mo is still improving!

During the timeout, head coach Don Nelson was surrounded by many Warriors players and rearranged his defense strategy against Nowitzki.

"Tolliver, you have the advantage of height. You replace Jackson and focus on defending Nowitzki. As for the center Haywood under the basket, Su Mo and Jackson can just provide necessary assistance and try to prevent him from receiving the ball in the restricted area."

"Once Nowitzki passes Tolliver and enters the restricted area, a double-team strategy must be decisively adopted. Even if it is to force him to pass the ball to an open space and let his teammates score, Nowitzki must not be allowed to continue his hot hand!"

Don Nelson's voice was stern and resounding, and his face looked very serious.

Because he knew players like Nowitzki very well. If he really found his touch completely, it would be a disastrous night for the team.

Nowitzki's one-legged stand and Kobe's fadeaway jump shot were equally good, and they were both top-notch and unsolvable scoring methods in the league.

After the timeout, the Warriors' offense was the first.

Curry brought the ball to the frontcourt three-point line, and what embarrassed him was that there was no defender in front of him.

Su Mo, who was double-teamed on the other side of the court, frowned and kept shouting at Curry, motioning him to shoot.

However...

Curry still had no confidence and chose to pass the ball to Tolliver in the low post.

Tolliver singled out Haywood and missed the shot

""Bang!"

The rebound was protected by the Mavericks center Haywood and immediately passed to the point guard Kidd.

Kidd dribbled the ball and sent a quick pass to the frontcourt, assisting Nowitzki in the high position on the right to perform the unique skill of standing on one leg. The basketball flew over the head of the center Tolliver and fell steadily into the basket.

""Swish!"

Dirk Nowitzki scored four goals in a row at the start, accounting for all eight points of the Mavericks.

Mavericks (8): (4) Warriors.

The ball was transferred, and Su Mo directly brought the ball to the front court, passed a defender through a teammate's pick-and-roll, shook off Marion, and shot another fadeaway jump shot.

""Shua!"

The basketball also went into the net.

After scoring the goal, Su Mo first made a fearless and provocative expression to Nowitzki, and then yelled at Curry who had lost his confidence while returning to defense.

""Stephen, this is not the you I know. If I see you in an open position and not daring to shoot again, I will immediately ask the coach to replace you!"

Curry's face was full of black lines, and he was extremely ashamed.

The two sides went back and forth, and the gap in the game never widened.

Often, as soon as Nowitzki scored a goal on the offensive end, Su Mo responded with a fadeaway jump shot.

The fans at the scene gradually shifted their attention from Nowitzki to Su Mo.

On the commentary desk, Mike Brin watched Su Mo hit another fadeaway jump shot and was amazed."I have the impression that Su Mo's fadeaway jump shot has never been his strong point. I didn't expect that it would become his regular offensive weapon today, and his hit rate is also quite impressive. Isn't this amazing?"

Van Gundy also kept praising:"Su Mo has been attacking all the time, first with a dunk, then a three-pointer, and then a phantom step. Now he has developed the technique of a fadeaway jump shot again. Now Su Mo has no blind spots in the offensive half!"

"Indeed, from this comparison, it seems that a fierce battle will break out between Nowitzki and Su Mo in today's game. No matter whether it is Nowitzki's one-legged stand or Su Mo's fadeaway jump shot, they seem to be unsolvable and cannot be defended at all!"

"If you want to stop them from scoring, you can only foul or pray! If prayer works!"

7 minutes and 22 seconds.

Su Mo received a pass from Ellis in the frontcourt, faced Marion, and shot a fadeaway jumper.

"Swish!"

""Beep!"

This time, Su Mo not only scored a difficult goal, but also caused Marion's shooting foul, earning him a 2+1 chance.

Su Mo, who was on the free throw line, enjoyed the cheers of the home fans."MVP"The sound of the ball went into the basket easily.

6 minutes and 19 seconds.

It was Su Mo again, facing Nowitzki in the right corner, still without mercy, almost jumping up and shooting at a negative angle from the baseline.

The basketball bounced playfully on the basket a few times and finally fell into the basket.

In the audience seats around the court, fans were gradually attracted by Su Mo's beautiful fadeaway jump shot.

For a moment, people ignored Nowitzki's efficient Golden Rooster Stand.

"Isn't Su Mo's fadeaway jumper too strong? It turns out that he has been hiding his scoring methods all along. It's really shocking!"

"Where is Su Mo's limit? No one will ever know the answer!"

"In half a quarter, Su Mo made 5 of 6 fadeaway jumpers, even when he was double-teamed. My god, even Kobe Bryant would have a hard time reaching this hit rate, right?"

In the CCTV NBA live broadcast room, Coach Zhang and Su Qun naturally praised Su Mo's refreshing offensive performance.

"This fadeaway jump shot is definitely top-notch in the league. Even if it's not as good as Kobe's, it must be about the same!"

"He had slam dunks, phantom steps, three-pointers, and step-backs. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that these skills would be perfectly combined in a rookie?"

On the court, the game quickly entered the last three minutes of the first quarter.

The Warriors' offense, with Su Mo hitting another fadeaway jumper, the two teams tied the score and returned to the same starting line.

Mavericks (19): (19) Warriors.

There were only 2 minutes and 51 seconds left.

Mavericks coach Carlisle immediately called a timeout.

In his opinion, they had to find a way to limit Su Mo's fadeaway jumper.

But even if they effectively double-teamed in the high post and limited Su Mo's fadeaway jumper, it was difficult to prevent his sudden breakthrough.

In addition, Su Mo also had a three-pointer skill that was better than a pure shooter, which made it impossible to completely defend Su Mo.

After all, that was the fact. If Su Mo could be easily defended, he would not have been able to score a career-high 70 points against the defending champions.

To say that the defending champions did not do a good job on defense is obviously a self-deceiving idea.

The only problem is that Su Mo is really too strong.

Even if Su Mo does not have any ability to shoot mid-range shots or fadeaway jumpers, he can still run rampant on the offensive end with breakthroughs and three-pointers.

Curry, who was sitting on the bench on the Warriors side, was even more shocked. He stared at Su Mo beside him with a frown, as if he was looking at a monster.

This guy told him two days ago that he had just started practicing fadeaway jumpers, but now he can play so well in the game?
