Chapter 49 Another lore! He is simply the number one legend in basketball
This is a warning!
LeBron James never expected it. He never thought that one day he would stand on the free throw line and hear such words.
He thought of his young self, when he led the Cavaliers against Arenas, who was in full swing. Arenas got a free throw opportunity at the critical moment of the sixth game. He walked over to Arenas and said: If you can't hit, then
, you will definitely lose!
Sure enough, in that game, Arenas, who was scoring as fast as he could, missed two shots. LeBron James led the Cavaliers to crush the Washington Wizards and then advance to the Finals.
Nowadays, things are changing.
I didn't expect that this rookie would dare to say such things to me.
James doesn't believe in evil.
He didn't believe that Fan Xi, who was 1.93 meters tall, could grab this rebound.
He originally wanted to hit the free throw to tie the score.
But now, he insists on hitting the iron, grabbing rebounds, and killing Fan Xi in one fell swoop.
The Chosen One is not afraid of threats.
The chosen one should go against nature.
He didn't believe that Fan Xi was more blessed than him.
James winked with his teammates.
At this time, Fanci also made a gesture to Lamar Odom.
The confrontation begins.
James looked at the basket and took a breath. He threw the basketball hard, just like throwing a shot put... The moment he shot, the basket was already crowded.
When James threw it, he also rushed to the penalty area. He tried to get a share of the chaos. It would be better to directly grab the basketball he threw and then complete the dunk.
boom!
The basketball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced out.
James is the one who knows the ball best, because he is the one who throws the basketball.
However, just as he was rushing straight towards the basketball, Fan Xi suddenly stood in front of him, and he jumped up suddenly!
James felt like his eyes were dazzled.
How did this kid jump so high?
He was surprised.
He didn't know that when Fan Xi took off, Lamar Odom pushed upward hard... This help made Fan Xi jump to the highest point. Then, he stretched out his amazing long arms, and his body almost floated sideways in the air.
In the past...he took the basketball off Haslem's head.
Then land!
Hold the basketball firmly in the middle with both hands and swing it vigorously from side to side!
Cut off the possibility of Heat players stealing.
Heat players are unwilling to take foul calls.
The rebound was locked by Fan Xi.
The Lakers still lead by 1 point.
Reggie Miller on the TV made a sound of admiration. Fan Xi's rebound made him feel excited. "Jack reminds me of many superstars in the 1990s. Even if he faces the most difficult environment, don't expect him to give up. He is
The last defender of the team."
Fan Xi held the ball steadily through half court.
Dwyane Wade blocks up.
After losing Kobe Bryant, the Heat's defense became more adequate. They stretched out unscrupulously and isolated Fanshie.
From Spoelstra to Dwyane Wade, they all believe that Fanshie can only play the most important supporting role next to Kobe Bryant.
At the critical moment, what extraordinary ability can this rookie have to turn things around?
Fan Xi is neither sick nor slow.
He roamed steadily at the top of the arc until Lamar Odom switched defense. He quickly passed the screen, but unexpectedly James switched directly and Wade quickly flanked him.
In this case, Fanci simply took off...Wade and James took off at the same time to suppress it...the two top superstars in the league ensured that as long as Fanci shot, it would be blocked!
But who said Fanci is going to shoot?
Even the shooting movements he made were extremely realistic.
But when the two superstars jumped to block the ball at the same time, he smoothly threw the basketball away from his side...not with his hands, but with the power of his waist.
No one expected Vanhey to use his waist to pass the ball.
This is an unprecedented initiative in NBA history.
It's natural that Wade and James were deceived.
Who makes Fan Xi's body coordination ability unparalleled in the world at this time?
The basketball was "dumped" into the hands of Lamar Odom under the attack of two super giants.
Odom received the basketball and was absolutely open. He took off and shot... Wow!
Withstand pressure.
122:119.
The Los Angeles Lakers once again led by 3 points.
There are 1 minute and 25 seconds left in the game.
Fanshie used his passing beyond the bounds of imagination to make the joint suppression of the two superstars come to naught.
Kobe Bryant was sitting on the bench, and the team doctor was giving stitches to his collarbone in his right eye. Seeing this with his left eye, he clenched his fists in excitement and gritted his teeth.
His!
Bryant cursed and punched his thigh hard.
He was very excited.
After all these years, he finally met a tough teammate.
The rebounds Fanci grabbed before and the perfect pass this time clearly told Kobe Bryant: From now on, you will not walk alone.
The Lakers will have two players who never give up in clutch situations.
James and Wade were very angry and felt uncomfortable being teased. The two superstars were actually teased by a fledgling rookie.
Wade returned to half-court, and he immediately took the ball and beat Fanshie in singles.
Fanci struggled relentlessly, but in the end he was one step away. James's screen made him lose his defensive pace. He watched Wade enter the penalty area and completed a dunk under Pau Gasol's defense.
"The game has become Wade James vs. Jake Van."
Even McBrin, who "advocates power", had to admit at this moment that Fanshie succeeded Kobe and became the protagonist of the game.
The audience in front of the TV was extremely excited.
Fan Xi's All-Star votes continue to rise, and people are excited about Fan Xi's progress. They are also looking forward to the birth of a new miracle.
Fan Xi came to the frontcourt with the ball, and this time it was James who defended.
James' body was like a bull's. When he stood in front of Fan Xi, he was like a thick wall, suffocating Fan Xi.
Moreover, the screen put up by Lamar Odom was also broken by him.
Wade is still watching eagerly outside, ready to rush up and steal his pass at any time.
At this time, Fan Xi was in a desperate situation.
He could only passively choose a pull-up jump shot... Bang!
There was some haste and the basketball failed to hit.
However, Pau Gasol under the basket actually grabbed the rebound.
At this time, as long as he protects the basketball and then passes it to Fan Xi, allowing Fan Xi to consume time, the Lakers will achieve a very favorable result.
Unexpectedly, he actually shot directly...and missed...Bang!
The rebound was stolen by Eric Dampier.
There are 35 seconds left.
The Miami Heat have the ball.
The Lakers led by 1 point at 122:121.
Phil Jackson shook his head in disappointment on the bench, frustrated with Pau Gasol's ability in critical moments.
Gasol is not even as tough as Bynum at critical moments. He has been in the league for so many years and still lacks the ability to play against the wind.
What is surprising is that the Heat did not choose to attack quickly after requesting a timeout.
Instead, they decided to launch a steady attack and then use defense to contain the Lakers.
Wade's speech on the bench was full of confidence.
He told head coach Spoelstra: "The initiative now lies with us. We don't need to take risks and play a fast break. As long as we play steadily, the Lakers have no chance of winning."
"If you lock that rookie down, they can't even kick the ball."
Wade's confident words sent Spoelstra reeling.
Although James supports Wade's statement.
Spoelstra then changed his tactics and let them play steadily.
Although this is a bit arrogant.
But from any angle, it is impossible for the Heat, who have two giants at home, to lose to the Lakers. After all, the Lakers' current biggest ace, Kobe Bryant, is injured, Bynum is away inside, and Pau Gasol is already weak.
Like overcooked spaghetti.
There's only one rookie...Jack Fan.
Can he still change the world?
LeBron James was holding the ball on the outside and Wade was pulling into the corner. He and Fanci talked trash in a leisurely manner: "Actually, you performed well tonight, but it was only good."
Fan Xi didn't reply to him.
"Stop fantasizing about defeating the Big Three. Such plots will only appear in those mindless Hollywood movies. How can a fledgling rookie be able to kill the protagonist?"
Wade continued to chatter.
"I don't think you are the protagonists." Fan Xi contradicted him.
"So, you think it's you?"
As soon as Wade finished speaking...Boom!
James broke into the penalty area through Dampier's screen, completed a dunk under Lamar Odom's defense, and also caused a defensive foul on Odom.
The American Airlines Center was in a state of excitement.
James raised his hands excitedly.
There are 15 seconds left.
123:122.
The Miami Heat went ahead by 1 point and also had an extra penalty.
"Do you still think you are the protagonist now?" Wade said to Fan Xi, pointing to James who raised his hands and was worshiped by the audience of 20,000 people.
Fan Xi ignored Wade and shouted to James: "Do you dare to miss one free throw on purpose?"
Neither humble nor arrogant, full of human temptation.
James was slightly stunned.
Fan Xi's 'provocation' made him want to miss the free throw. The chosen one should not take the usual path.
However, the shadow of the previous ball always lingered in his mind.
After quickly weighing the pros and cons.
He said to Fan Xi: "I don't think you can hit a three-pointer at all."
He makes his choice.
He took a deep breath at the free throw line, faced the basket, and shot the basketball softly... Wow!
The basketball falls into the net.
124:122.
The Miami Heat lead by 2 points.
Immediately, they quickly became active.
Fanshi took the lead. He rushed to the sideline to receive Odom's serve, and then ran towards the frontcourt.
Just after halftime, he quickly stopped.
Then, he waved his hand to Phil Jackson on the sidelines to signal him not to call a timeout, and he asked his teammates to all pull away.
Wade stood in front of him.
Concentrate!
The game has reached the most critical moment, and every second of countdown will change who the final bell will toll for.
Flash Wade takes his defensive focus to the extreme.
At this time, Fan Xi said something to him: "You will definitely lose if we enter overtime."
This sentence contains a lot of information.
There was a lot of information flowing in Wade's mind. He had to discern the meaning of Fan Xi's words, whether he wanted to get 2 points or 3 points. Whether he was giving false information or his true intention.
While Wade's mind was spinning rapidly, the time counted down to six seconds.
Fan Xi suddenly started, and he quickly charged towards the left side. Here was James standing near the three-point line.
What's going on? Is he seeking his own death?
Wade's thoughts were like lightning.
At this moment, Fan Xi suddenly changed direction...he cut from left to right, and suddenly accelerated...his explosive power and speed were developed to the extreme.
Although Wade followed up, he was half a beat too slow when retreating.
He quickly accelerated.
But just as he was speeding back, Fan Xi stopped suddenly, and Wade also stopped suddenly.
Fanci moved forward violently again, and Wade retreated again.
The center of gravity suddenly swings back and forth.
At this moment, Fan Xi suddenly took off... He didn't have any preset actions. He directly shot the basketball quickly while taking off... Wade hesitated for half a second before catching this intention. He jumped up to block the shot.
His bounce is amazing, and he is the best guard in the NBA at blocking shots.
However, the previous swing of his center of gravity slowed him down a little, and the basketball flew out less than 0.5 centimeters from his fingertips.
When the basketball flies to the top of the parabola, the light turns red! A rapid electronic buzzer sounds.
The American Airlines Center was silent, and everyone was waiting with bated breath, fearing that their heavy breathing would affect the flight path of the basketball.
Fan Xi relaxed after landing.
He was very happy.
Also very confident.
The referee raised three fingers at the moment he took the shot, which was an accurate shot from outside the three-point line.
Countless hands were clenched into fists in front of the TV, just like Kobe Bryant who had just finished stitches in the locker room.
Phil Jackson stood up at some point. Rarely nervous, he was staring at the basketball in the sky, which would determine the final fate of the game.
A smile appeared on Fan Xi's lips.
The smile blooms to the most beautiful moment.
Whoosh!
The basketball plunged into the net and white waves rolled up.
Taylor Swift on the sidelines was the first to jump up, and she rushed towards Fan Xi crazily...!
The entire American Airlines Center sighed.
Killer!
Killer!
Unexpectedly, he was killed by a sniper!
Countless fans who were standing slumped down on their chairs, unable to believe that this scene was happening.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift has clung to her hero.
The Lakers bench was excited.
Phil Jackson led the shouting.
In the locker room, Kobe Bryant punched the sky hard. His wound exploded instantly and blood flowed down, but there was a smile that could not be hidden from the corner of his mouth.
"Jack! Jack! Jack! The great Jack hit the buzzer beater. He killed the Big Three of Miami and made Flash Wade's defense in vain. He stood at the top of the pyramid. He is the most powerful undrafted player in history.
His tens of millions of annual salary are worth every penny, and he makes the title of the Chosen Son full of suspense..."
"He is the son of a miracle, he is the embodiment of perfection, he is the legend God gave to the basketball world!!!"
"Taylor Swift rushed to him, and the little music queen gave Jack an affectionate hug. What a desirable love, what a blessed love. Beauty and hero, a match made in heaven!!"
"At this time, LeBron James, the chosen one, and Dwyane Wade, the guardian of the American Airlines Center, are eclipsed in front of Jack. Tonight, Jack is the embodiment of basketball!!"
Mike Brown's roar was louder than ever.
Reggie Miller looked at McBreen with a blank look on his face. He didn't expect that at the last moment, McBreen, who had always admired strong men trampling on rookies, would turn his back. He actually used such flattering words to praise Fan Xi, making him not even know it.
What to say.
But for McBreen, the transition felt natural.
Because in his heart, Fan Xi is already an All-Star!
"I must vote for him, I must let him enter the All-Star starting lineup! He deserves it! Audiences in front of the TV, please vote for our miracle son!!"
McBreen yelled into the phone.
His voice spread to thousands of households.
The North American audience was shocked.
In fact, the moment Fan Xi hit the winning goal, the entire audience was excited!
