Beautiful as a Painting
The Spurs inbound the ball.
Bowen passed the ball to Duncan near the baseline.
The moment Duncan received the ball, he was double-teamed by Michael Olowokandi and Parks.
Duncan remained calm and took a jump shot despite being guarded by two defenders.
Thump! Swish! The tray is scooped into the basket at a 45-degree angle.
Duncan exemplified the word "steady" to the fullest.
3 to 4.
The shift from offense to defense.
After receiving a pass from Andre Miller, Li Chen quietly dribbled the ball across the frontcourt and reached the three-point line.
At this moment, Bowen Stephen Jackson attacked Li Chen from both sides again.
Li Chen moved with light steps, every muscle in his body brimming with terrifying power. He constantly collided and entangled with the two men.
Each clash of forces made Bowen and Jack grimace inwardly; they couldn't understand how Li Chen, whose body didn't look particularly strong, could possess such immense power.
Just then, Li Chen's toes left the floor, and his body sprang up without any warning.
The air seemed to be torn apart by this force, and in the instant of his leap, his body posture was perfectly displayed, as if leaving a magnificent shadow in the air.
His arm quietly extended, and his five fingers lightly touched the basketball.
At that moment, he became one with the basketball, listening to and resonating with it.
He could feel the pulse of the basketball; every inch of his body was filled with energy and a relentless pursuit of victory.
At the same time, Li Chen's unexpected Pull-up Jumper greatly surprised the two of them. They knew that this Eastern man was a tiger, and if they couldn't contain him, it would be the Spurs' nightmare, because he was strong, yes, too strong.
Both players jumped up simultaneously to block Li Chen's jump shot.
At the same time, they were shouting in their hearts, "We must succeed!"
But the next moment, Bowen and Stephen Jackson were dumbfounded.
Their bodies were falling steadily, but the man in front of them seemed to defy gravity and remained suspended in mid-air.
How could this be? Li Chen's powerful airtime shocked them and left them at a loss. How could they defend against this? This question arose in both of their minds at the same time, and for a moment they felt a sense of despair.
As time went by, Li Chen relaxed his arm, and the ball naturally left his fingertips, flying towards the basket.
It's like a shimmering streak of light, leaving behind a magnificent arc.
For a moment Staples Center seemed to fall silent, with only the soft echo of the basketball touching the rim.
Swish! The basketball goes through the net cleanly.
6 to 4.
The Staples Center erupted in cheers. The shooting form was simply too beautiful, immersing them completely in the moment.
This immediately turned a group of neutral fans into loyal supporters of Li Chen.
In a domestic live streaming room.
"Beautiful! Chen's Pull-up Jumper is just as good as Tracy McGrady's!" Zhang Weiping shouted excitedly.
"Yes! His movements are fluid and agile, and his body coordination is extremely high. His Pull-up Jumper shot looks like it has been practiced repeatedly."
His every movement was fluid and natural, his steps precise, which reminded people of a painter's brushstrokes flowing across a canvas.
Secondly, his movements are rhythmic and elegant.
Whether it's jumping, shooting, or landing, the movements are all highly rhythmic.
He can move his body in perfect harmony, giving a sense of fluidity and elegance, as if he's performing a dance. He's practically another Tracy McGrady."
Sun Zhengping couldn't help but admire Li Chen's pull-up three-pointer.
Kobe watched Li Chen's Pull-up Jumper and a smile appeared on his face. "Not bad. No wonder he's been trained by me, Kobe."
James' forehead wrinkles appeared, indicating that he was under even more pressure. When he decided to pursue a career in basketball, he studied what professional basketball was like.
This league is a highly entertaining competition, which is why guards like Jordan, Kobe, and Tracy McGrady are so popular. Li Chen is one of them.
However, he doesn't have their advantages. But now is not the time to think about that. His first priority is to beat Li Chen in average points per game at least three times within five seasons.
The future Little Emperor James gradually fell into deep thought.
"Beautiful, Fuck, you're inhuman! You've only been practicing your pull-up jumper for a week and you're already this good? Tell me, are you an alien?" Odom shouted.
Substitutes like Andre Miller and Corey Maggette also rushed over.
Li Chen glanced at Odom and thought to himself, "You're a real genius, kid. You always hit the nail on the head."
"You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth," Li Chen said with a laugh.
Odom.
Odom was completely bewildered. Although he didn't understand the meaning of the sentence, he did know the word "dog."
"Fuck you, you're insulting me again! You wait, this isn't over yet."
Li Chen ignored Odom and ran towards his own backcourt.
At the same time, Li Chen thought to himself, "No wonder it's an S+ skill."
[Pull-up jumper] not only gives him 80% of the ability to ignore defense, but also gives him great shooting consistency.
Li Chen had never developed in this direction before, so although he had great hang time, his stability was relatively poor, which is why he didn't use his hang time to break the Spurs' double-team defense.
But now that he has acquired the Pull-up Jumper, he can face the Spurs without fear.
Popovich was stunned by what he saw. At that moment, he felt that Li Chen was bullying him, and he was a little jealous of this talent.
At the end of the first quarter, the Clippers led the Spurs 24-21 by 3 points.
In the second Clippers brought in Corey Maggette, Elton Brand, and Odom, replacing Michael Olowokandi, Parks, and Andre Miller.
At the start of the second quarter, led by Li Chen, the Clippers never fell behind and maintained their lead throughout.
Whenever the Spurs tried to gain momentum, Li Chen used Spurs Pull-up Jumper to suppress them. At the end of the second quarter, the Clippers led the Spurs 28-26.
At halftime, the Clippers led the Spurs 52-47.
At the end of the first half, Li Chen had scored 25 points on his own.
During halftime, Li Chen had to sneak into the restroom to get himself a Functional Drink to replenish his energy.
"The first half is over. Let's take a look at the lengthy statistics."
Duncan of the Spurs had 15 points and 10 rebounds.
Chen of the Clippers scored 25 points and had 6 assists.
"Statistically, Chen is slightly better than Duncan, but overall the Spurs performed better than the Clippers."
Zhang Weiping nodded and said, "Chen finally found his rhythm in this game. He scored 25 points in the first half alone. His scoring methods are diverse, including not only Pull-up Jumper, but also layups, free throws, and more. His scoring ability and decisiveness played a key role in the game, causing the Spurs a lot of trouble."
Sun Zhengping laughed and said, "Today, Chen is like a martial arts master who has unlocked his full potential; he's incredibly strong. I reckon Popovich will have to rack his brains trying to figure out how to counter Chen."
"It's no use, Chen is unstoppable today. Aside from Duncan's height, who might be able to defend him, the other Spurs players have no chance, but Duncan can't possibly guard Chen, a perimeter player."
"Coach Zhang, do you predict the Spurs will stage such a comeback?" Sun Zhengping asked.
Zhang Weiping fell into deep thought...
