Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA
Chapter 809 - 289: The King and Xiaowang, No Shortcuts in Basketball
As the universally known "Mayor of Los Angeles." ππ³π¦ππ€ππ£π―β΄π·π¦π.πππ
Every time Qin Yue leads his team to visit the Angel City, he is greeted with the "FUCK" reception by the people of Los Angeles. On the night of the third game of the Western Conference Finals, he successfully gained another loyal fan.
Although this fan had already cheered for Qin Yue courtside a few years ago.
But when the former little girl transformed into a youthful and beautiful fashion lady....
That night, Kendall Jenner, wearing a number seventy-seven Qin Yue jersey, was undeniably the most dazzling sight on the sidelines of the Staples Center.
It wasn't until Jenna actively invited Qin Yue to her upcoming birthday party in a few months did Qin Yue finally realize...
That the ruthless passage of time, while gradually turning him into a thirty-something old man, was also quietly maturing Jenna, who was about to officially turn eighteen.
"Time really flies."
Despite having five championships in hand.
But for Qin Yue, who could never have enough championships, at this moment, he couldn't help but sigh at the ruthlessness and cruelty of time.
On the court, pre-game warm-ups ended.
The big screen at the Staples Center immediately displayed the starting lineup for the third game of the Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and the Warriors.
Home team Lakers: Little Gasol, Big Gasol, Kobe, Klay, Paul.
Visiting team Warriors: Brown, Qin Yue, Wallace, Green, Curry.
Before the game started, Qin Yue, who received an invitation to Jenna's birthday, had an unusually solemn expression.
Because when the invitation from Jenna reminded Qin Yue once again....
In competitive sports, no one can stay young forever.
Therefore, Qin Yue, who must cherish the present, only wanted to seize the time to continue leaving his opponents unforgettable painful memories.
For example, Kobe.
Qin Yue was looking forward to seeing how his opponent would recall this experience of being dominated after retiring.
At the center of the court, opening tip-off.
Qin Yue didn't let Brown, who was as unreliable in this regard as James, continue to jump for the ball, easily overpowering Little Gasol who couldn't stop him from rising.
Curry brought the ball past half court.
Immediately after, the Warriors quickly spread their formation and initiated the Flex strategy around Qin Yue.
Near the free-throw line, receiving Curry's pass, Qin Yue coolly and calmly made a vertical pull-up jumper, giving the Warriors the first points.
In the NBA, classic strategies never go out of style.
However, the teammates who once joined Qin Yue to implement the Flex strategy on the court had now become opponents who wished they could beat Qin Yue whenever there was physical contact.
On the court, Lakers on the attack.
Facing Qin Yue's strong interference, Paul, pushing and elbowing, proved why caring for brotherhood on the court is utterly ridiculous.
Because in the NBA, where human relations should only exist outside the court.
If you have to consider so-called brotherhood on the court, then James, surrounded by brothers in the league, wouldn't have grabbed eight to ten championships in Qin Yue's memory?
On the outer line, as long as it's not a critical moment, you can trust Paul, who made a pull-up three-pointer off a screen.
In the past two Western Conference Finals games, Paul averaged 21 points, 10 assists, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals per game.
If you only look at the stats, the God of Point Guards seems legit.
However, in terms of point distribution, Paul's scoring in the four quarters of the previous two Western Conference Finals games was 8 points, 4 points, 8 points, and 1 point.
What does this scoring distribution indicate?
It indicates that Paul is often only the God of Point Guards in the first three quarters.
Therefore, for Paul, who dared to mock Qin Yue with gestures upon scoring at this moment, Qin Yue immediately responded: "You who can't hit clutch shots can only show your skills during regular time."
Hearing this, Paul, precisely targeted and broken by Qin Yue's words, was left speechless.
Returning, Warriors on the attack.
Helping to defend against Paul, Kobe was subjected to strong intensity by Qin Yue's wingman this round.
As everyone knows, at this stage, Kobe is an old comrade who will turn thirty-five in two months.
So, when Curry sprinted all over in front of Kobe...
This masterpiece titled "Curry Slips Kobe" instantly made Ray Allen on the Warriors' bench feel like he was back a few years ago.
Back then, Ray Allen often played the "you run, I chase" game with Kobe on the court.
However, the current Curry, who almost ran Kobe ragged, is not lacking sportsmanship.
Because before Qin Yue's crossover, thirty-seven-year-old Curry could still make twenty-somethings cramp from running.
Run.
Keep running.
And hit those incredible threes after intense running.
In Qin Yue's view, among Curry's many talents, it is his unparalleled cardiovascular ability, unmatched in history, that is his strongest weapon.
This round, Kobe, with great effort, barely kept up with Curry.
But, under Curry's diversion, Qin Yue, who created a one-on-one situation on the flank with Big Gasol, was unstoppable despite the opponent using all his strength.
In the Lakers' paint, Little Gasol, who couldn't complete the help defense for his brother, sighed heavily the moment Qin Yue scored a solo dunk.
Seeing this, Big Gasol, already battered by Qin Yue for two games, broke down.
"Mark, what do you mean by sighing just now?"
"I...I didn't mean anything."
Little Gasol, known for his timidity in front of his brother, certainly had no ill intentions.
