NBA: A collection of super busts

Chapter 113 Don't you look at the statistics when you play basketball?

Anthony looked at the coach and said, "We need to improve our offensive efficiency. We need to get the ball to the players who are confident and ensure our scoring efficiency, instead of whoever gets the ball shooting or whoever has an opportunity taking the shot."

Ye Feng also looked up from the statistics sheet in his hand at this moment: "Melo is right! We need to improve our offensive efficiency! I think the second-year team's inside game is very strong, especially in the final moments when they will definitely collapse inside to strengthen rim protection."

"We can't just blindly attack the basket; we need to score in a smarter way."

"Give the ball to Melo, he's our hottest pitcher and one-on-one specialist tonight. No one on the sophomore side can match him."

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Anthony's eyes widened. He even wanted to touch Ye Feng's head to see if he had a fever.

This guy actually stood on my side and spoke up for me?

"I think Ye is right!" Although he didn't know why Ye Feng suddenly said that, Wade, as the number one wingman, naturally stood on the same side as Ye Feng without thinking.

That leaves Milicic and James.

What can these two say?

Their specialty is driving to the basket, and their hot zones are all in the paint. Now they're standing up and saying: No, second-year big men aren't that great. We have to drive in at the last minute.

Neither of them could say those words, and even if they could, their efficiency tonight would only make their words sound particularly stupid.

"Then let's do as Ye and Melo say!" The head coach was naturally too lazy to worry about or analyze what these people were thinking.

All he wants to do now is get off work.

So when the timeout ended and the first and second-year students returned to the court, they all started in their own lineups.

"Don't think I'll forgive you just because you're talking to me." Anthony leaned close to Ye Feng before the game started and said, "I won't forgive you. We're still enemies!"

"Got it." Ye Feng snorted, and without saying anything more to Anthony, he walked onto the court and stood on the sideline.

He's serving again.

"Why, Ye?" Wade Ye seized the opportunity to lean closer: "Why are you trying to please Melo? This is so unlike you."

"Who's trying to curry favor with him?" Ye Feng asked. "Don't you look at the stats when you play?"

"Who in their right mind would watch that junk while playing basketball?"

"Serves you right for not getting good stats." Ye Feng cursed, but still patiently explained, "Melo has already scored 7."

"I already have 18 points and 17 rebounds, LeBron has 15 points."

"There are only a few minutes left in the game. How many points can Melo score? Let him score, let him explode, what can he do?"

""

"You're shameless!" Wade exclaimed. "I never expected to play like this."

"Then you should pass the ball to LeBron more often," Ye Feng patted him on the shoulder. "He'll definitely thank you."

"Why would I need his thanks?" Wade shrugged. At that moment, the referee blew the whistle to start the game. Ye Feng immediately passed the ball to Wade, then quickly ran onto the court and set an off-ball screen for Anthony.

"Run, Melo! Take them down!"

Wade quickly passed the ball to Anthony at the top of the arc, who then turned and pulled up for a jump shot.

With a "whoosh," his jump shot went in perfectly, successfully helping the team narrow the gap.

Then, on the second-year offensive possession, Prince, who was on fire tonight, received the ball outside the three-point line and got a huge open shot. Without hesitation, he pulled up and shot.

"Bang!"

But he missed that crucial shot; the ball bounced off the rim and the paint immediately descended into chaos.

Yao Ming, Amar'e Stoudemire, LeBron James, Ye Feng, and Darko Milicic all crowded into the paint to grab the rebound.

Ye Feng, relying on his incredible speed and excellent positioning, was the first to touch the basketball. However, instead of catching it directly in his arms, he pointed it towards the sky. After landing, he took off again without stopping, creating a perfect time difference with everyone else and successfully catching the basketball in his arms.

"Ye's jumping height and speed are terrifying!" Barkley said. "The rest are also top talents in the league, either springy or giants."

"Even in this situation, Ye was still able to look down on everyone and catch the ball in his arms with continuous jumping."

"He's almost at double 20!" Kenny said. "If he gets double 20 tonight, he'll definitely be the MVP!"

He will also become the first foreign MVP in Rising Stars Challenge history.

While the two were analyzing the game, Ye Feng quickly got the ball and passed it to Wade. Wade then found Anthony during his breakthrough.

The most accurate and clutch scorer on the first-year team pulled up suddenly beyond the three-point line, glanced at the screen, and then unleashed a furious three-pointer!

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, although he is a very accurate shooter, he has not yet developed a consistent three-point shot, and like Prince, his shot bounced off the rim.

The second-graders immediately scrambled for the basket, with a group of them crowding around it.

But this time, neither Stoudemire nor Yao Ming are there!

One of them was too slow to keep up with the rapid transitions, and the other was lazy and didn't go all out to track the ball back.

In the second year, only Prince and Ginobili were ready to grab the rebound under the basket.

The two of them alone are definitely not enough!

Because the rookie team has someone chasing them fiercely!

It's Ye Feng again!

This guy barely paused after getting the ball, striding towards the basket. After judging the height and angle of the ball's bounce, he jumped again with all his might, reaching out in mid-air to tap the ball.

With a "whoosh," the basketball obediently spun around and went into the net again.

「1分了！双方的差距只有1分了！叶和安东尼一人2分！成功将分差缩小！」巴克利大喊道：「同时，叶已经20分19篮板了！新秀赛历史上还从未出现过双20的数据！他今晚能成为第一个幺？」

105: 106!

With 2 minutes and 31 seconds remaining in the game, the two teams were separated by only 1 point.

The second-year player called a timeout at this point. After the timeout, neither side made any substitutions, but Stoudemire successfully hit a mid-range jump shot to help his team extend their lead.

Then Anthony succeeded in another one-on-one challenge. He forced his way to the basket and got blocked. He grabbed the ball and tried to get up again, but was blocked by the rim again. However, he miraculously got the ball back once more.

It wasn't until he got up for the third time that he finally managed to put the basketball into the basket.

"What's the trend now?" Kenny laughed. "Everyone's imitating Charles, all the young people are playing like Charles?"

"Classics never die!" Barkley said proudly. "When it comes to the decisive moment, everyone will know whose style of play is more effective!"

We know whose playing style will lead them to victory!

"But I also want to tell young people that learning from Charles is fine. But there are also potential risks." Kenny suppressed a laugh.

We won't win the championship.

"That's still better than you being a role player your whole life!" Barkley glared at Kenny.

"I have a championship," Kenny said happily, holding up two fingers. "Two! In a row."

"Role players!"

"I have a record for making a three-pointer in a single Finals game," Kenny said. "What record do you have in the Finals, Charles?"

Oh, right, yes! Your opponent put on the best individual performance in Finals history!

"Role players! Suckers! Benchwarmers! I'm the MVP!"

"So what if you're MVP? You still didn't win a championship even riding on Hajime's coattails," Kenny said. "You can't even ride on someone else's coattails properly."

O

As the two continued arguing and bickering, the game on the court also fell into a brief entanglement, with neither side scoring on several subsequent attempts, and neither making a single shot.

But Ye Feng successfully grabbed his 20th rebound, becoming the first player in the history of the Rookie Challenge to record a double-double of 20!

"If he wins as a rookie, he'll definitely be tonight's MVP!" Barkley shouted. "Ye is truly a phenomenal rookie, and more importantly, he's only 19! A 19-year-old genius has plenty of time and opportunities to hone his skills."

"I believe he will definitely not just be a blue-collar player; he will become one of the best centers in the league."

"I thought you didn't like Chinese players," Kenny said. "After all, to you, Chinese players are like donkey butts."

"Screw you!" Barkley roared. "I have no problem with Chinese players! I'm only targeting a particular player's performance at a certain stage. There are many players I don't have high hopes for; I don't think much of Nowitzki or Gasol. So am I targeting all international players?"

"No, that's not it," Kenny said. "It just proves that you simply don't understand football, you simply don't understand football."

"9

With only one minute remaining in the game, the first-year team was still trailing by 3 points.

The basketball finally came into James' hands. At this moment, he would not pass the ball. He had finally gotten a chance to perform, so he was not willing to give it up. He strode towards the basket, wanting to score for the team with a layup.

Just as he was about to score with a powerful dunk, Stoudemire, as if suddenly remembering something, took a step to the side and leaped into the air. He didn't even rush towards the ball; instead, he aimed at James' arm and yanked James down from the sky.

"Holy shit!" Yao Ming, who was right next to the two, couldn't help but utter a vulgar curse.

It's the All-Star game, what are these two doing? Is it even necessary?

But Yao Ming was taken aback, because this was exactly what the fans at the stadium loved!

Especially since the injured weren't from Los Angeles, they obviously didn't care at all.

They roared and cheered wildly, as if they wanted Little S to do it again, even more fiercely.

It's not that they dislike James; they just enjoy watching the drama unfold.

After lying on the floor for a while, James grabbed Wade's hand and stood up, spreading his hands to look at the referee.

"Are you blind? He's fucking killing people! Are you all just sitting around doing nothing?"

But the referee was also innocent: he had called a foul.

You did fall hard, but Stoudemire controlled his movements well and didn't hit your body or the area above your neck. It was just a regular foul.

Seeing that the referee ignored him and was even about to give him a technical foul, James protested for a while but had no choice but to walk to the free throw line.

"Two crucial free throws! With 40 seconds left!" Kenny said, "How will this game go?"

Regardless, tonight's game was absolutely the most exciting and thrilling in the history of the Rising Stars Challenge!
