Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA-Chapter 657 - 226: He’s Anxious, He’s Anxious Again, He’s Both Angry and Anxious (Two-in-One - !)

Just like in an American traditional superhero blockbuster filled with the scent of popcorn...

On the court, after the heroes from the Knicks displayed their skills, Qin Yue, who was labeled as the main villain by the New York media before the game, made his move.

High position on the right wing.

Facing Iguodala, who was constantly trying to swipe the ball from him, Qin Yue stepped back powerfully to create space, then accelerated and abruptly stopped, immediately pulling up for a shot. Within an instant, his quick shot pierced through Iguodala's defense.

The next second, the basketball beautifully arced through the air and swished through the net.

Swoosh!

"Messiah's jump shot is like a piece of art."

On TNT TV Station, Barkley sighed, "No matter how many times we watch it, we never get tired of it."

In the past, Qin Yue always struggled to understand...

Why those old veterans would say that the later NBA's entertainment couldn't compare to their era's by a hair's breadth.

But now, as the signature moves that these contemporary NBA stars rely on become more and more abstract...

Qin Yue, standing out from the crowd, found it hard not to agree with those veterans' perspectives.

The Knicks' offense.

James' Nightmare Dance once again opened Qin Yue's eyes.

If, when receiving the ball, James' habitual pivot foot movements could still be reluctantly accepted...

Then, after changing his pivot foot while backing down with the ball and finally stepping and turning towards his left...

James, who could entirely ignore the basketball world's pivot foot rules, besides being unscrupulous, Qin Yue couldn't find any other words to describe him.

Near the right baseline low post, the new GOAT barely kept up with James' devilish steps.

However, in the face of James' ultimate move, the sprawling fadeaway jump shot, even the new GOAT could only pray to the heavens at that moment.

Clang, clang, swish!

Qin Yue admitted that at the moment when James' awkward fadeaway clumsily fell into the hoop, his worldview was instantly shattered to pieces by James.

This was a rare moment of being mentally broken for Qin Yue, whose mindset had matured significantly in recent years.

And as the man who could break the new GOAT's defenses...

Ignoring the violations before James' fadeaway, just based on that shot alone, James deserved a title of a permanent vice GOAT.

Back at the other end, Qin Yue, showing signs of a heart attack, lobbed the ball to Brown, who was eagerly asking for it.

Perhaps believing that James' earlier completion of that play, guided by Olajuwon during last summer at the "Dream Factory" with him, was an insult to their mentor.

Under Mozgov's defense, Brown decisively showcased to the world the real Nightmare Dance.

Fake left, go right.

Fake right, go left.

When in Mozgov's eyes, Brown's pivot foot seemingly moved four or five times repeatedly...

This Russian big white bear, not known for his defense, was almost immediately spun dizzy by Brown.

Moreover, the most unbelievable thing was...

After completing the entire Nightmare Dance routine...

Genius Brown, at the moment of spinning for a shot, converted his shooting action into a step-through, arrogantly laying the ball into the hoop in Mozgov's face.

Fortunately, the referee did not tolerate this extremely ugly post-up play.

"I absolutely didn't travel!"

Under the Knicks' basket, Brown argued with the referee who called a traveling violation on him: "I just used the new Dreamy Dance taught to me by 'The Great Dream' Olajuwon!"

Upon hearing this, the referee naturally ignored Brown's protest.

Yet, Brown, still unwilling to give up, continued to argue for himself: "If you're calling traveling on me, then why didn't you call it on LeBron earlier?"

Nearby, James, preparing to inbound the ball, was inadvertently caught in the crossfire.

And with Brown's reminder...

In the following several possessions, James indeed received "attention" from the referees, consecutively called for a carrying and a traveling violation.

Qin Yue never expected that Brown's extremely ugly solo play would cause such an astonishing chain reaction.

"Well done."

So much so that when the first quarter entered an official timeout, Qin Yue didn't forget to specifically praise Brown's performance in this game.

Although, Brown's initial intention wasn't to achieve an extreme one-for-one with James through self-sacrifice.

But having effectively limited James' non-basketball moves, Brown had indeed achieved something even Qin Yue could not.

After the timeout, the Warriors made a substitution.

Brown, who had been guarding James, went to the bench to rest, and Jamison, reuniting with James, came off the bench.

Before taking the court, Jamison pleaded with Qin Yue: "I have a lot to say to number 23 on the opposing team, can you pass me the ball a few more times?"

Seeing this, Qin Yue chuckled, "Antoine, you know, I only choose how to pass the ball based on where each teammate is positioned."

At that moment, Jamison understood Qin Yue's implied meaning...

Qin Yue would not change his way of playing because of Jamison's personal feud with James.

While Jamison felt a bit disappointed...

Considering that if they didn't win this finals, everything would be meaningless, Jamison immediately said, "I misspoke earlier; this is the finals, winning is our only goal."

Qin Yue smiled and said, "No, what I meant was, not this time."

Not this time?

At this moment, comprehending Qin Yue's implication, Jamison transformed into a fire-breathing dragon.

And Qin Yue?

Qin Yue, of course, knew that winning was the Warriors' only goal.

But since Jamison had heartfelt things to say to James, Qin Yue, who always pampered each teammate, naturally had to generously satisfy such a trivial request.
