Chapter 139 I'm Just Waiting for You in the Air! Amazing Projection Speed
The Lakers still have a twin tower lineup.
Center: Bynum;
Power forward: Gasol:
Small forward: Jiang Chen;
Shooting guard: Kobe Bryant;
Point guard: Fisher.
The Magic's starting lineup is:
Center: Howard;
Power forward: Turkoglu;
Small forward: Rashard Lewis;
Shooting guard: Pietrus;
Point guard: Nelson;
The Magic's lineup is extremely competitive.
As the league's top center, Howard dominates the paint.
As an organizing power forward, Turkoglu is responsible for controlling the team's offense and has a strong three-point shooting ability.
Lewis was a twin star with Ray Allen in the Supersonics, and his three-point shooting ability was also top-notch in the league.
Although his offensive ability is slightly worse, he is the Magic's perimeter defensive pioneer and also has the ability to shoot three-pointers.
Point guard Nelson has poor organizational skills and average defensive ability due to his height, but he has strong offensive ability and is a master in melee combat. Whenever the Magic are unable to open up the situation, Nelson is able to use his speed and breakthrough ability to cause damage.
Both teams jump ball.
Howard easily won the jump ball.
After receiving the basketball, Nelson dribbled quickly across half court. Seeing that Bynum and Gasol had not yet entered the restricted area, he changed direction in one step, passed Fisher, and rushed towards the restricted area, ready to make a layup.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a purple-gold figure flying towards him from the outside, it was Jiang Chen.
The corners of Nils' mouth curled up slightly, and he suddenly stopped and made a fake layup.
Jiang Chen seemed to be fooled by the fake move and jumped high.
Seeing this, Nelson threw the basketball with confidence.
But as soon as the basketball left his hand, there was a crisp "snap" sound, and the basketball was directly hit out of bounds by Jiang Chen.
Nelson's eyes widened in astonishment, muttering, "How is this possible? How is this possible? I clearly used a fake move to trick this Chinese player into getting up! But why is he still in the air?"
"Hey, man, do you think your fake move can fool me? I just jumped up on purpose and waited for you in the air!"
Jiang Chen fell to the ground, grinning, but complaining in his heart.
Fortunately, my ability to stay in the air was strong enough and I waited for the basketball to fly over.
Although he was not fooled by the fake move, he did not grasp the timing and height of the jump, which caused him to jump prematurely...
If there is a skill that blocks shots, this problem can be avoided perfectly.
But now I don't have it, so I can only practice slowly by myself.
???
Nelson was confused and had no idea what Jiang Chen was saying.
Waiting for me in the air?
What an international joke!
How could there be a player in this world who possesses such a perverted ability to stay in the air?
Nelson just thought Jiang Chen was bragging.
But how to explain the phenomenon just now?
He couldn't help but question it again and cursed: "Damn it! It was almost an attack."
"Hey, man, this is the Lakers' restricted area. How can you capture it so easily?"
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
Nelson shrugged with a little disdain and pointed to the Magic team logo on the floor, indicating that this was the Magic team's home court.
Jiang Chen didn't say anything, but his eyes became sharp.
Is the home court amazing?
In a short while, the Magic team was beaten so badly that the fans at the scene turned against them!
There were bursts of exclamations at the scene, and heated discussions broke out.
"Wow! That's a great block!"
"This Chinese player's jumping and air-staying abilities are just too abnormal! Nelson was off-rhythm for the shot, but he still blocked it."
"What happened just now? Why does this Chinese player seem to be frozen in mid-air?"
"This block really made my scalp tingle and my adrenaline surged!"
...
On the stadium.
The Magic throw the ball out of bounds.
After Nelson received the basketball, he passed it to Turkoglu, who performed a high-post pick-and-roll with Howard.
He broke through to the restricted area with the help of a screen, attracted a double-team and passed the ball to Pietrus who was lurking in the bottom corner.
Pietrus didn't hesitate and took an open three-pointer.
The basketball drew a high arc.
Swish.
Hollow into the net.
Cheers immediately broke out at the scene.
High pick-and-roll is the Magic's most core and most commonly used tactic.
After Turkoglu completes the pick-and-roll with Howard at the top of the arc, he has many offensive options.
He can shoot three-pointers from the outside with the help of screens, or he can break through to the restricted area to make a layup or a layup.
At the same time, he can also pass the ball to Howard who is following up, allowing the latter to complete the attack.
You can also attract the defense and pass the ball to the open player.
How to attack specifically depends on the opponent's defensive strategy and defensive changes.
The Lakers attack.
Fisher dribbled across half court and immediately encountered tough defense from Nelson.
Old Fish showed off his big muscles, pushed a few times, pushed Nelson away and passed the basketball to Kobe.
In terms of physical strength, Fisher is among the top point guards in the league.
After Kobe and Bynum completed the pick-and-roll, they broke into the restricted area and passed the ball to Jiang Chen who had just run out of the open space.
Jiang Chen simply ignored Lewis's defense and shot a three-pointer with an astonishingly fast speed.
Lewis' eyes widened, looking confused.
What kind of shooting speed is this?
The speed of light?
Too fast!
He himself is also a three-point shooter and is very familiar with the speed of three-point shooting.
Obviously, it is impossible for humans to have such a terrifying projection speed!
Did I just hallucinate?
Lewis rubbed his eyes and looked up at the big screen.
In the playback, Jiang Chen's shooting speed is still extremely fast under the effect of slow motion.
The whole audience exclaimed again.
Lewis also stood there completely stunned.
"Oh my God! Jiang Chen's move was so fast that the camera could barely capture it."
The live commentator Mike Breen exclaimed, opening his mouth wide.
"As the current record holder for three-pointers in NBA history, I can clearly say that Jiang Chen's shooting speed is completely inconsistent with the shooting rules of three-pointers."
Reggie Miller said seriously.
"Then how do you explain Jiang Chen's shot just now?"
Mike Miller asked curiously.
"I can only say that this Chinese player is a super basketball genius that has never appeared in NBA history!"
"His mid-range three-pointer also doesn't conform to the shooting rules of three-pointers, but it has become his regular offensive weapon."
"His shooting speed has once again refreshed my understanding of three-pointers."
Reggie Miller said with a trembling voice, not knowing how to praise Jiang Chen anymore.
He suddenly realized that all the three-point shots he had made throughout his life were in vain.
I just found out now.
It turns out that three-pointers can be shot like this!!
