Back in 84, he became Jordan’s lifelong enemy!
Chapter 128: Three points rained down like rain, and he went crazy!
Chapter 128 Three-pointers rained down, and he shot like crazy!
"Michael, your next task is to push Su Wen out of the outside line at all costs!"
Cooper's mind was still reeling from Pat Riley's halftime mission to keep Suevin on the outside.
At that time, everyone had a consensus: Su Wen didn't know how to make three-pointers.
Because Su Wen has never voted.
From the beginning of the NCAA National Championship, to playing the entire NBA regular season, and the first two rounds of the playoffs, Su Wen never made a three-point shot.
Naturally, everyone thought that this guy couldn't make three points.
That's why rival coaches emphasized time and again to limit Su Wen from beyond the three-point line.
Despite the targeted deployment of these coaches, Su Wen defeated every opponent with breakthroughs and shooting, disintegrating these defenses, but Su Wen has never made a three-pointer. This is a fact.
This is how Pat Riley arranged for Cooper, and this is how Cooper executed it.
But when he saw Su Wen's shot from outside the three-point line, for some reason, his inner faith collapsed at this moment, and he felt panicked.
Everyone at the scene was surprised after Su Wen made this three-pointer.
No one expected that Su Wen would suddenly shoot a three-pointer on his own at this time. It was not a helpless shot after being forced into a desperate situation, but a selective three-pointer.
Watching the basketball accurately hit the net, the scene was in an uproar.
"Three-pointer? He actually made a three-pointer."
"Ah, this is the first time I've ever seen him shoot a three-pointer."
"He can actually shoot a three-pointer? Oh my god, he can actually shoot a three-pointer?"
"It's over. I couldn't guard against this guy in the first place. Now that I know how to use three-pointers, the offensive range is wider and it's even harder to guard against."
"What should we do about Michael? This Su Wen is difficult to guard against in the first place, but it will be even harder now, right?"
"This must be a coincidence! This must be an illusion!"
"Is this just bad luck?"
"Hey!" Chambers ran up behind Su Wen with a smile and gave him a hug. "It's not easy. I finally saw you shoot a three-pointer."
Others were also shocked and looked at Su Wen and smiled.
There is a feeling of 'you finally took action, we have been waiting for a long time'.
Even as an opponent, the magician stared at Su Wen seriously before receiving the serve, feeling extremely surprised in his heart.
This must be a coincidence, right?
The magician thought to himself that he thought it was his teammate Cooper's defense that was in place, forcing Su Wen to make this unprecedented choice of three-point shot.
The ball went in, but it was just an accident.
If this kid knew it before, he would have used it long ago and wouldn't wait until tonight to cast it out.
The magician wouldn't believe it to death. Su Wen chose to shoot a three-pointer in the Western Conference Finals against them with premeditation!
He didn’t think Su Wen had such awesome courage and could hold it back from the regular season to now.
as predicted.
After he assisted a goal to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Suvin did not take another three-pointer in the next possession.
He went back to his previous combination of sudden shots and scored points with one combo.
When the two sides ended the third quarter with a score of 85:83, the magician walked off the court calmly, his eyes drifting to Su Wen.
Sure enough, that three-pointer was just an accident.
It was just Su Wen's helpless choice.
Pat Riley also secretly breathed a sigh of relief after this section ended.
Su Wen's three-pointer shocked him so much that he almost wanted to call a timeout and rearrange his defense.
But when he endured it later, he found that Su Wen only made one shot, and he never saw another shot after that. He finally felt relieved.
Although Su Wen once again scored 13 points in the third quarter and his offensive momentum remained undiminished, he can relax as long as he does not suddenly add three-pointers, a deadly weapon.
He was really afraid that if Su Wen didn't take a shot, he would just take a series of three-point shots, disrupting his and Cooper's morale.
So much so that during the inter-section break, his arrangement was still the defensive arrangement during the half-time break, and Cooper was not asked to be too wary of Su Wen's three-pointer.
On the SuperSonics side, Wilkens couldn't help but complain about Su Wen.
He didn't blame Su Wen for shooting three-pointers, but blamed the opponent for taking too few shots.
The Lakers' defense is not very good, and their offense is not difficult, but with more offensive options, they can increase their chances of winning by one point, right?
As long as they can stretch the Lakers' defense even further and disrupt the opponent's defensive deployment, they will get more offensive opportunities.
"Su, if you're confident, just shoot more. Don't be afraid that you won't make it."
This is what he advised Su Wen to do, encouraging him to take more chances.
Because of Su Wen's three-point practice before, his accuracy is already very good. It can be used as a conventional weapon or a secret weapon to catch the opponent off guard.
"Is it really possible?"
Su Wen asked in confusion.
He knows very well how little importance the league attaches to three-pointers in this era, and many people even liken shooting three-pointers to a girly behavior.
His shot was just a test of his touch.
Regardless of whether he makes it or not, it is an act that disrupts the coach's pre-game plan. He does not dare to take action too presumptuously.
After all, the coaching staff at this time did not regard three-pointers as a weapon or a necessary tactic to deploy.
"Be bold and cast with confidence."
Wilkens continued to encourage: "I am very confident in your shots and never think that you will make random shots."
"Ok."
Su Wen heard the other party's subtext, nodded, and agreed.
The meaning of Wilkens's last sentence is very clear. As long as it is not random shooting, he can take it.
Both sides returned to the court and the Lakers had the ball.
Magic passed the ball to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, but the latter failed to finish smoothly and bounced out of the frame.
After McCormick grabbed the rebound, he passed it to Brad Davis.
Davis advanced with the ball and passed to Su Wen when he entered the frontcourt.
Su Wen still did not choose to shoot a three-pointer. Instead, he used his speed and explosive power to change direction and pass Cooper, and went inside to shoot.
The goal was scored, but Cooper was not sad.
Because he was truly sure that Su Wen's three-pointer was really an accident. It was not that the opponent had really practiced it and would use it as a conventional weapon.
As long as he doesn't really know how to make three-pointers, he doesn't need to spend energy defending this.
The difference between the two sides was reduced to 4 points with Su Wen's attack.
Magic continued to push the offense and reached the outside. Under the cover of James Worthy, he entered the inside and took advantage of El Wood's unsteady footing to make a mid-range shot.
"Whoa!" He also made the shot.
Back in the other half, after a burst of ball guidance from the SuperSonics outside, the ball came to Chambers.
The latter turned around to attack the basket, but was forced down by Worthy. He rushed to grab the rebound. Just as he was about to continue attacking the opponent relentlessly, he unexpectedly saw Su Wen already standing in the bottom corner in front of him.
Chambers thought about the conversation between Wilkens and Su Wen, and passed the ball without hesitation.
When Su Wen received the ball, Cooper was already in place to guard against his breakthrough.
He had forgotten Su Wen's three-pointer and didn't think Su Wen would shoot a three-pointer at all.
Then, Su Wen voted!
After he caught the ball, when he saw that Cooper did not force the defense, he shot another three-pointer.
"boom!"
Unfortunately, the shot didn't go in.
Seeing the rebound grabbed by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Cooper increasingly believed that Suvin's shot was an accident.
I just got lucky and made it.
Su Wen frowned when he saw that the shot was missed, and secretly cried out that it was a pity.
The Lakers counterattacked. After receiving the ball, Magic directly avoided Su Wen's entanglement, sent it forward, and passed it to Scott who had already run in front. The latter dribbled the ball to speed up and passed Davis. After chasing the defense, he succeeded in a layup.
The score difference was back to two points.
Su Wen's third three-point shot came in the sixth minute of the final quarter.
This was already three minutes after he missed his last shot. This time he dribbled the ball by himself, and when Cooper's attention was not on defending the three-pointer, he suddenly pulled it up again.
"Shh!"
The basketball flew out of his hand and was thrown into the basket premeditated and calmly.
"!!!"
Cooper raised his hands in vain and watched in amazement as the basketball flew into the net, his heart shocked.
This guy really knows how to do it!
He didn't cast randomly!
Su Wen's three-pointers one after another finally made him realize that Su Wen's three-pointers were not random.
Because, counting this shot, Su Wen has already made three shots.
Three three-point shots in the half were definitely not an occasional occurrence.
He must have really mastered the three-pointer before he dared to continue shooting like this.
Su Wen quickly confirmed his suspicion.
In the eighth minute of the last quarter, two minutes later, Su Wen made another three-pointer.
He directly received a pass from Davis across the center line while traveling, and took the shot without adjusting, directly knocking Cooper out.
This shot was not only an indirect shot by Su Wenxing, but also a shot from one meter away from the three-point line, and it went in.
Cooper was astonished as he watched the basketball streak through the night sky with a long arc and penetrate the net bag.
This kid actually cast farther and farther, and the more he cast, the more confident he became!
At this time, Pat Riley finally handed over his timeout in a thrilling moment.
He can't bear it!
Su Wen's consecutive three-pointers made him panic for a while.
He has to adjust again.
At this time, Su Wen hit three three-pointers, helping the team lead the Lakers by 7 points.
"here you go!"
Back on the court, Wilkens gave Suvin a hard slap on the shoulder.
This timeout was obviously Su Wen's three-pointer, which completely disrupted the opponent's plan, so he couldn't wait to call.
His previous encouragement and his expectation worked.
Su Wen just smiled, not too proud.
After the timeout, the Lakers indeed made defensive arrangements.
That is, Cooper never dared to let Su Wen go even one meter longer.
As soon as Su Wen gets the ball, he will definitely stick to it, like a pendant, wanting to hang it on Su Wen.
As expected, Su Wen was prevented from taking a three-point shot by him.
But it was not difficult for him.
After being defended by Cooper time and time again, he continued to handle the ball in advance, and suddenly in the last minute, he increased his movement without the ball and drilled into three-point gaps.
Before Su Wen made a three-pointer, it was very difficult just to chase him. This time, Cooper's pursuit range was extended to the three-point line. His running range was wider and the distance was longer. More strenuous.
Over time, he still made a defensive mistake, and Su Wen slipped across the baseline and appeared in the opposite corner before shooting a three-pointer.
"Shh!"
Su Wen hit his fourth three-pointer.
The fifth three-pointer came in the penultimate half-minute of the final quarter.
McCormick grabbed the rebound of Chambers' missed shot and threw it to Su Wen who cut inside.
Su Wen held the ball as if he was passing by, passing through the entire inside area, arriving at the corner of the opposite three-point line, and took another three-point shot.
"Shh!"
When this three-pointer hit the bag accurately, the audience went crazy.
"It's in again! Ahhh! This guy is crazy!"
"Damn you guy, you always shoot three-pointers, you're so cool!"
"Again? Are you done yet?"
"When he made a shot, he made a series of shots. It was like rain. Isn't it terrible?"
"Super scary kid, he opened the score again with this three-pointer!"
"It's over! We are stretched to 13 points!"
