Chapter 178 A Race Against Time! An alley-oop three-pointer, a game-winning shot in the final second

"It's over, Barbie Q!"

"A three-pointer while retreating, and with Wilson Chandler's close-marking defense, he actually made it?!"

"Explode!"

"Ray Allen is a cold-blooded three-point killer!"

"OH, NO!!!"

The stands were filled with groans and cries of despair as the home fans clutched their heads in their hands, sinking into deep despair.

now.

There are only 0.4 seconds left.

Correct.

Time hasn't run out yet, but in this short amount of time... even if you receive the ball, you might not even have time to shoot normally.

How to score a goal?

What makes them think they can turn things around?

This is the most critical point.

Knicks fans felt the game was already lost.

"Beep!"

Coach D'Antoni called a timeout, which was the last timeout of the game.

0.4 seconds.

They probably won't be able to do anything.

But if you don't call out, you're guaranteed to lose.

"I'm so damned good!"

Tyson Chandler slammed his fist on his thigh. "I should have protected that rebound, at least... I shouldn't have let Garnett pass it out so quickly."

what am i doing?

I think I'm sleepwalking!

“I didn’t keep up with Ray Allen either!!!” Wilson Chandler also felt very guilty.

0.4 seconds is too little.

Everyone knew they had lost, but it was only after Su Yan scored a logo three-pointer to seal the victory, and Curry then scored a two-pointer with his foot on the line to stabilize the team's morale.

They ultimately lost.

This is truly unacceptable.

It's really hard to accept that we lost in this way after putting in so much effort throughout the entire match!

All the players were in low spirits.

Coach D'Antoni wanted to say something more, to comfort his teammates, and to give them a final glimmer of hope.

In the end... he remained silent.

no way.

If you can't even guarantee a single shot, how can you expect to win? What kind of motivational platitudes can you spout?

Despite calling a timeout.

But they also looked like they were just waiting to die.

"Hey!"

Just then... Su Yan shouted, his voice wasn't loud, but because it was Su Yan, everyone still looked over.

"Giving up already?!"

Su Yan smiled and said, "It does seem like we can give up, but... I don't think everyone needs to be so discouraged."

Even if we lose.

We also have a 22-game winning streak, which ties the second-longest winning streak in history. We are already good enough and excellent enough.

Even if we lose.

The fans will surely give us the warmest applause, won't they?!

Moreover.

This is just a regular season game. Losing is no big deal.

We have a 22-game winning streak, so there's no need to feel defeated. We can even proudly say it out loud.

So... cheer up.

Though we lost, we are still proud!

Su Yan rarely gives these motivational speeches to encourage the players, but whenever he does, his words are incredibly infectious.

It has even more penetrating power than the coach's words.

"Yes."

"Exactly! We're already excellent, there's nothing to be discouraged about!"

"This is a basketball game. It's all about winning and losing. Victory and defeat are normal. It's not a big deal!"

"Su Yan is right!"

With just a few words, everyone cheered up again. This didn't change the fact that they were going to lose, but at least... they weren't feeling down.

Immediately.

Su Yan continued, "But in reality, we haven't reached the end of our rope yet; we still have a glimmer of hope."

We can do it like this, like this, and like this again…

The players stared wide-eyed, incredulous yet brimming with anticipation!

On the Celtics' side...

Everyone is praising Ray Allen.

Ray Allen, who had been feeling frustrated all night, finally couldn't hold back any longer and roared, "Watch closely!"

"I'm the best marksman in this league!!!"

"Yeah!"

"The Gentleman's Sword is a born three-point killer!"

Everyone praised it highly.

That three-pointer was crucial; Ray Allen deserves it.

Not a moment.

The pause ends.

The final, seemingly meaningless 0.4-second showdown.

The Celtics were relaxed, victory was already firmly in their grasp, and all they had to do was one thing.

Wait for the Knicks to inbound the ball, then secure the victory.

The only thing to be a little careful about is... avoiding the Knicks scoring directly at the basket.

There was just too little time; there wasn't even enough time for an alley-oop dunk. He could only tip the ball towards the rim the instant he touched it.

Although it is extremely difficult to succeed.

It's okay to be a little careful; it won't do any harm.

Game start.

Curry inbounds the ball from the center circle, and Su Yan sets screens for Wilson and David Lee, seemingly about to drive to the basket.

"He really wanted to catch the penalty kick alley-oop."

"This is the only possibility: to stop Su Yan!"

Everything was under the Celtics' control. Rondo and Garnett chased after them and collapsed the defense together.

Trying to catch a penalty kick in an alley-oop?

There are no doors.

Su Yan smiled slightly, made a fake cut down, and immediately ran back up.

Pierce was following, and Su Yan rushed to the middle of the arc, a step away from the three-point line, and jumped high.

Pierce: ? ? ?

What?

You haven't even received the ball, and Stephen hasn't even served yet, why are you jumping so early?!

What's going on? !

Pierce racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.

He didn't intend to jump, which was really silly and unnecessary.

"too difficult!"

The center circle edge.

Curry muttered to himself, feeling completely unsure of himself, but still before the five-second violation.

He passed the basketball out.

to whom?

It wasn't Wilson, it wasn't David Lee, and it wasn't Tyson Chandler under the basket, but... Su Yan.

That's right.

It was Su Yan.

Su Yan jumped empty-handed, still in mid-air.

"That pass? What are they trying to do?"

Reggie Miller didn't understand.

Drexler also frowned. He didn't react at first either, and then... he exclaimed: "Look, Su Yan is jumping, he's already in shooting position!"

Is this...is he planning to do an alley-oop three-pointer?!

"An alley-oop three-pointer?!"

Reggie Miller's pupils widened, and he was stunned for another second before he came to his senses.

Correct.

It's an alley-oop three-pointer.

This is the glimmer of hope that Su Yan mentioned.

On average, NBA players need 0.6 seconds from receiving the ball to releasing it when there is no defensive interference.

Peak Curry is special; he only needs 0.4 seconds, and his fastest time is only 0.3 seconds.

but.

If there is interference, then that's a different story.

Therefore... 0.4 seconds is a huge defensive challenge for Su Yan, and indeed for all the Knicks players.

I want to take a normal shot and make it.

It is indeed very difficult.

Therefore... Su Yan thought of shooting in mid-air, which was similar to an alley-oop penalty kick under the basket.

only.

The Celtic knew they couldn't afford to give anyone an alley-oop penalty.

On the contrary, the Celtics' unexpected outside shots brought them many advantages.

First, jump and get into shooting position in advance to save some shooting time.

Secondly, he jumps first, which is unexpected and prevents Pierce from providing any defensive interference.

Su Yan can shoot as soon as he gets the ball.

As for why it's three points, it's because... Su Yan, who possesses the [Max Level Three-Pointer] skill, is more accurate with three-pointers than two-pointers.

of course.

This also tests the accuracy of the passing player.

However... this is not a difficult thing for Curry, the "dual guard".

The core issue still lies with Su Yan.

then.

With only 0.4 seconds to spare, Su Yan jumped into the air, pre-positioned his shooting stance, and raced against time.

The instant Curry passed the ball, he snapped his wrist, flicked his fingers, and released the basketball!
