After Miyazaki Isamu sank the three, he looked back at Wang Yi.
Wang Yi happened to be looking at him, too.
From the kid's gaze, Wang Yi caught a hint of provocation.
But Wang Yi didn't pay him any attention.
He was a Legendary Superstar who had been famous for years. This kid was just a fresh-faced rookie.
If he responded every time some kid provoked him, wouldn't that cheapen his status as a Legendary Superstar?
Still, it did make things a little interesting for Wang Yi.
When he first entered the NBA, he was an unknown nobody. No one had tried to provoke him.
Because he wasn't worth provoking.
As his skill gradually improved, more and more players refused to accept him, and more and more players started provoking him.
After he'd shut them all down one by one, the only ones left provoking him were the stars.
Once he'd shut those stars down, too, only superstars like Morant, Antetokounmpo, and King Arthur dared to provoke him. After he'd left them with nothing to say, too, almost no one dared to provoke him anymore.
Instead, before every team faced him, their coaches and leaders would sternly warn their players not to anger Wang Yi under any circumstances.
And today, a fresh-faced rookie from Japan had actually provoked him.
Interesting.
The Raptors attacked again, using the same play as before.
Wang Yi drew two defenders on the right side while Zhang Jiacheng and Pang Bo ran a little two-man action on the left. After drawing the defense, Pang Bo watched Zhang Jiacheng cut to the basket and passed him the ball. Zhang Jiacheng made an easy layup.
Hield then led the Lakers on another fast break. This time, he reached the three-point line and passed to their Shooting Guard, Saipan.
