NBA's King of Talking

Chapter 152 Human and Ball Can't Be Scored

The Raptors' offense is still focused on DeRozan; his advantage there is just too great. Korver is like a piece of cake in front of him; he can eat him however he wants. If you guys don't double-team him, I'm really going to beat him to a pulp.

DeRozan, facing Korver's defense, showed off his one-on-one footwork and finished with a beautiful pull-up jumper.

Jia Fei couldn't help but admire DeRozan's one-on-one skills; his footwork and feints were both beautiful. At only 24, he already possesses footwork that many guards never achieve in their entire careers—truly remarkable.

The Hawks' offense continued to rely on teamwork. Jia Fei moved off the ball, roaming along the baseline, and used an off-ball screen to reach the corner, where he received a pass from Horford and hit a three-pointer!

4:8, both sides scored, but sorry, 3 points to 2 points, 1 more point!

也难怪现在联盟的球队越来越多投3分球了，按莫狗魔球理论分析来看，50%的2分球和33%的3分球得分是差不多的。而33%的3分球命中率对一个射手来说是偏低的，但一个射手要维持50%的投篮命中率，可不是件容易的事情。

Strictly speaking, most players have a field goal percentage of over 50% in the paint, but their two-point field goal percentage also needs to be combined with their long two-point field goal percentage, which many players don't have. As a result, many perimeter players' two-point field goal percentage is less than 50%.

Therefore, in terms of cost-effectiveness, shooting a long two-pointer is often not as good as shooting a three-pointer directly.

The Raptors are on offense, and DeRozan is eating Korver again...

Korver really tried his best to defend DeRozan, his attention was all on him, but he just couldn't stop him! But that's the NBA, if your body isn't good enough, you'll be completely overwhelmed, it's really cruel.

Jia Fei was guarding Rudy Guy on the weak side.

Gay couldn't help but mock, "All you can do is play off-ball. If you're so good, try playing with the ball like DeMar played against the Celtics!"

Jia Fei asked, bewildered, "Why should I listen to you?"

Guy was furious: "Don't you want to be the next Kobe?"

"I don't want to be the next anyone, I am who I am!" Jia Fei said seriously.

Guy: "..."

There are even swingmen who don't want to be Kobe. The world is full of wonders. If you don't want to be Kobe, do you want to be me?

The Hawks were on offense. After a double screen at the top of the arc, Korver hit a three-pointer—but missed!

But Millsap scored on a putback under the basket!

The Hawks' offense was running smoothly, while the Raptors' defense always seemed a step behind. It looked like they were defending well, but in reality, the Hawks were still scoring all the time.

With the ball constantly in DeRozan's hands, while he continued to score, the other players were mostly running back and forth, and their motivation waned. Valanciunas was one of them. He felt he had a mismatch advantage under the basket, but even if you can bully Korver, don't give me two chances too. Am I supposed to be a blue-collar center all the time?

If you don't have a ball to play with, your enthusiasm will suffer.

DeRozan continued to attack Korver, and even the commentator Kevin Harlan couldn't stand it anymore: "The Hawks should double-team him, Kyle is really going to be killed!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Hawks actually double-teamed him!

DeRozan, lacking the Mamba Mentality, opted for a one-on-two fadeaway jumper, then passed the ball to Valanciunas!

Valanciunas, as excited as a deserter finding water, tried to force a shot at Horford, but he was too excited and his hook shot was too forceful, almost missing the rim!

Jia Feifei grabbed the rebound and brought the ball over!

"Come and hit me!" Guy taunted Jia Fei with a grin as he returned to defense.

Jia Fei attempted a "pass man and ball" to get past the guy who kept babbling, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't control the force well enough when hitting the ground. The ball didn't pass under the opponent's legs and bounced into the opponent's groin instead!

Guy used his manhood to make the steal!

He was holding the ball with one hand and touching his genitals with the other; his expression clearly showed he was in pain!

Coach Casey is a man too, and he certainly knows how unpleasant it feels to be hit by a basketball like that, so he immediately called a timeout!

Guy bent over, panting heavily, glaring at Jia Fei.

Jia Fei wore an expression that said, "I didn't mean to." He genuinely didn't mean to; he was trying to pass the ball to his opponent, but failed. He had no intention of hurting them; in fact, this mistake added another error to his record!

The big screen at the stadium was replaying the scene in slow motion. Many male fans watching the scene gasped in shock. If that had hit them, it would have been a "fatal blow"!

"Jia, where did you learn that 'human-ball passing' move?" Art Mayork couldn't help but ask with a laugh.

"Stop talking nonsense, where did you learn such a devastating move? I just didn't control my strength!" Jia Fei said helplessly. He knew Guy would definitely hate him to death. Whether he won the match or not was secondary; getting his manhood injured wasn't just a matter of pain, it was also incredibly embarrassing!

Kevin Harlan exclaimed, "Jia Fei's dribbling... I've never seen anything like it before. Chris, can you describe how painful that must have been?"

Webber touched his forehead and chuckled, "It should be... about the same as being kicked!"

After the timeout, Gay hadn't returned; he was still resting on the bench. The Raptors made a substitution, and Terrence Ross came on.

Terrence Ross entered the game, his eyes blazing with anger as he looked at Jia Fei. He remembered being confronted by Jia Fei when Jia Fei played for the Raptors back when Jia Fei was with the Thunder. He'd almost forgotten about it, but seeing that strikingly handsome face brought it all back to mind.

"Don't think you can win easily just because you knocked Rudy out. I won't let you have your way! Even if Rudy isn't here, I'm still here!" Terrence Ross said what he thought was some very cool words.

"Sorry, I have to guard DeRozan now. Korver will be guarding you!" Jia Fei said with a shrug.

"I..." Terrence Ross was instantly enraged. He hadn't expected to be so disrespected; the opposing team had assigned him the worst defender. This was the last straw! He was determined to crush Korver and show them his true power!

Guy on the sidelines frowned, his face turning a terrifying green!

A staff member handed him a bottle of Gatorade, and he glared at the person as if they had cheated on him.

The game continues.

The Raptors inbound the ball in the frontcourt, Lowry gets the ball, and Terrence Ross is frantically calling for the ball in the midcourt, as if Korver, who is guarding him, is a piece of tofu that he can easily devour.
