Almost the sa words returned.
But I don’t know which word triggered LeBron.
LeBron got heated right then and retorted loudly at Su Wan, "What did you say?"
Then he complained to the referee, "Did you hear that? He’s personally attacking !"
Not just Su Wan was taken aback, even the referee was stunned. Isn’t that too hypocritical? Wasn’t it you who said the sa to Su Wan just a mont ago?
And now you’re playing the victim?
He signaled the Heat Team to get on with the ga.
Boos filled the venue.
Because the live broadcast replayed Su Wan’s layup steps.
Without a doubt, that was traveling...
They felt the referee was biased towards Su Wan.
When it cos to the TNT studio,
Several people hissed simultaneously.
Their eyes lit up.
Things were starting to get interesting!
During the next play, it was still the LeBron-Wade Connection, but this ti as LeBron passed the ball to Wade, Su Wan intercepted it early: "Passing it all around in the sa few directions, LeBron, you need to learn to be more flexible!"
Su Wan continued to mismatch and play against LeBron.
LeBron didn’t dare to guard him closely this ti.
Wade desperately pushed past Paul George who was setting a screen for Su Wan, sticking close to Su Wan.
Because he expended quite a bit of energy getting past George, Su Wan, noticing this, exerted force and shook Wade off behind him.
Chris Bosh was already waiting in front of the Reasonable Collision Zone. Seeing that he had backup, LeBron imdiately summoned the courage and went to double-team with Bosh. Facing the trap, Su Wan didn’t hesitate – as he was about to enter their space, he launched the "SOMA step," deceiving them into jumping early and then leaped amidst their focused gaze, completing a "Single-handed Slam Dunk."
"Sss!"
Barkley took another sharp breath, with the light of astonishnt shining brighter in his eyes.
He really didn’t expect Su Wan to pull off such a big move out of the blue.
In that case...
It’s hard to say with the new rules, whether they strengthened LeBron or Su Wan.
Certainly, the original Su Wan didn’t have such destructive power under the basket.
He usually relied on "forceful play," but footwork like now, tricking "using four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds," is rare to see.
You could even say he was incapable of it.
But now, with the new rules and the addition of this footwork strategy, Su Wan’s layups beca even more elusive.
"Referee sucks!"
"Referee sucks!"
"Referee sucks!"
Seeing Su Wan once again dodge their ho defense and score through traveling, the Miami fans couldn’t hold back any longer and began cursing the referees.
But the referees were in a tough spot.
Putting aside other issues...
Given Su Wan’s influence, calling his legally-allowed footwork as "traveling" was extrely difficult.
If they did make that call, with Su Wan’s temperant, he would be relentless in his right.
This was the referees’ biggest worry.
Su Wan was not the type to just swallow an unfair loss.
The referees could already imagine, if they called Su Wan for a foul, the backlash they would face:
First would be Su Wan’s accusations after the ga demanding explanations for his footwork!
Then the entire New York dia pressuring the referees.
The worst part was...
They were certain Su Wan would claim, "This is the whole NBA, the entire league discriminating against international players. I don’t believe Michael Jordan would face such unfair treatnt," followed by the New York Gang, the Asian community, and various other groups launching assaults.
If the Referee Association didn’t scapegoat one of their own in the end, they would certainly not let it go.
And who would be the unlucky one in the end?
Definitely one of the three of them.
Better not go there.
And another thing...
If they truly offended the New Yorkers, they would definitely face various "doxxing" efforts, exposing their private lives.
How many NBA referees were clean these days?
They were genuinely afraid of drawing fire upon themselves.
So...
As long as Su Wan’s footwork was within the rules, they really didn’t dare to make the call.
The Heat Team was clearly caught off guard by Su Wan’s footwork.
Whether it was solo defense or double-team, since they didn’t know in which direction Su Wan would step next in the lane, it often led to their defense being completely bypassed.
LeBron felt numb.
Because after Su Wan guarded him, Tyson Chandler got more ti to adjust, which ant even if LeBron could push past Su Wan, the final encounter under the basket with Chandler’s defense was hard to convert into a real threat.
And as his jump shot touch was disrupted after each drive towards the basket, he couldn’t maintain his "bulldozer" style bypass; even if he drew a foul, it wouldn’t translate into points.
Anyway, his presence on the court was really nothing compared to Su Wan’s mysterious steps.
No...
First, LeBron felt annoyed.
Then he felt the sting!
The rule change he had suffered for had ended up strengthening...
Who exactly?
Inside the TNT studio, each displayed a peculiar smile.
They truly didn’t foresee the storyline developing this way
Not just them, everyone’s first reaction to the league changing the rules was that this was tailored for LeBron.
But the outco...
Tell the biggest beneficiary is Su Wan?
What can you say to that?
