NBA: The Hulk's talent has female celebrities going wild.

Chapter 197 Reward: [Mark Price's Free Throw], New Mission!

"Wait, let's take a look at the Spurs' attack first."

Parker circled out from the baseline, received the ball at the top of the right arc, Curry gave him a step back, and defended the drive, which was fine.

tonight.

No.

Parker averaged 0.5 three-point attempts per game this season, almost never shooting threes, focusing instead on mid-range shots and drives to the basket – this defensive strategy was correct.

Ok?

woooow~

Parker, who rarely shoots three-pointers, actually chose to make one at this crucial moment of comeback. Was that a bit impulsive?

Or is it overflowing with self-confidence?!

That shot?!

It seems a bit out of the way, but...

bang!

Hit.

Cold-blooded, and crucial!!!

The point difference was instantly reduced to just one point!

Reggie Miller's passionate commentary was accompanied by spittle flying everywhere, much of it landing on Drexler's face.

Drexler was just as excited, completely disregarding everything else, and shouted excitedly: "Parker's three-pointer has narrowed the initial 10-point gap to just one point."

Although Su Hao scored 50 points, it seems that Coach Popovich's "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy was successful.

Su Hao's free throws weren't as good as expected, which is understandable for a center.

But this way.

The Clippers' overall offense was disrupted, while the Spurs' fluid teamwork allowed them to continuously improve their offensive performance and catch up.

effective.

As expected... free throws remain a fatal weakness for traditional centers.

With only 2 minutes and 17 seconds left, if the Spurs continue this steady, they could very well turn the game around.

"Yes Yes."

Reggie Miller nodded in agreement, "Su Hao can't keep making free throws, his connection with his teammates is cut off, and when his teammates suddenly attack, his touch is off."

The Clippers' overall scoring efficiency has dropped significantly.

The Spurs are a team that relies on teamwork; their constant passing and running keep every player warmed up.

When opportunities arise, they are easier to seize.

They truly deserve to be considered a favorite to win the championship.

The coach knows how to find ways to win in adversity, and the players can also use teamwork to find scoring opportunities even when they're not in good form.

The two commentators praised the Spurs.

"Beep!"

With Parker hitting a three-pointer he shouldn't have made, narrowing the gap to just one point.

Coach Dunleavy called a timeout.

Clippers bench.

"They made those three-pointers. The entire Spurs team is back to their rhythm. The deficit is down to one point. This is going to be a bit troublesome."

Gordon frowned.

Curry was also a bit annoyed, saying, "The 'Hack-a-Shaq' strategy is really disgusting, it prevents Su from playing to his full potential."

"Everyone calm down!"

Coach Dunleavy said, "The Spurs have been using the 'Hack-a-Shaq' strategy because Su Hao's free throw shooting wasn't very good tonight."

They are very smart.

This was a last resort for them.

It's because Su Hao is too powerful; they have no way to stop him and can only resort to such risky gambles.

Not bad.

They launched a counterattack.

Don't forget.

The league has already restricted the "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy, prohibiting fouls on off-ball players in the final two minutes of a game.

Otherwise, it's two penalty kicks and one throw-in.

Then we just need to hold on until the last two minutes, keep Su Hao in the paint to protect the rim, and launch second-chance opportunities.

The initiative remains with us.

In addition... the Spurs' offensive form has indeed been good lately, but as long as we increase our defensive intensity, they can't maintain this level of performance indefinitely.

all in all.

The competition still presents us with a significant advantage.

What we need to do is maintain our confidence and then break down the Spurs' offensive and defensive strategies one by one.

"Guys, are you confident?"

"Have."

"Don't worry, Coach!"

"Sudan has already scored 50 points, there is no reason for us to lose at home tonight!"

With a bowl of chicken soup from the coach, the players, who were initially a bit dejected, instantly cheered up and regained their confidence.

There are 2 minute and 17 seconds left.

One point difference.

Popovich's "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy was successful, making the game suspenseful again, but it's still hard to say who will win.

【Ding! 】

Just as everyone was raising their arms in celebration, a system notification sounded in Su Hao's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have scored 50 points in the single selection, completing the main quest reward: Mark Price's career free throw ability.]

The next main objective is: Achieve 7 or more steals in a single game and lead your team to victory. Reward: Kyrie Irving's ball-handling ability!

"Oh right, Brother Tong also has this mission."

Su Hao slapped his forehead, a surge of joy welling up inside him.

Scoring is not his forte, and scoring 50 points in a single game is extremely difficult for him.

And he's not a player who likes to rack up points.

Although he wanted to complete the task, he didn't put too much effort into it.

tonight.

The Spurs used a seven-man rotation defense, employing a "human wave tactic" to wear down Su Hao, which directly gave Su Hao numerous opportunities to get the ball and attack again.

The score naturally increased.

On this basis, Mr. Bobo then used the "shark-cutting tactic" on Su Hao, giving him further opportunities to reasonably rack up points.

He finally scored 50 points in a single game, completing the system's main mission.

"Mark Price's career free throw percentage is an astonishing 90.5%."

"If they had given it to me earlier, and the Spurs had kept beating me like this, they would have lost long ago."

Mark Price.

He was selected by the Mavericks in the second round, first overall pick in 1986, and then began his professional career with the Cavaliers.

His free throw ability is very impressive.

In his peak season, he averaged 3.9 free throw attempts per game and made 3.7 of them.

Their free throw percentage is as high as 95.2%.

That's ridiculously high.

His career free throw percentage is an impressive 90.5%, ranking first in NBA history.

of course.

The future "Baby-Faced Assassin" Curry could reach the highest free throw percentage in history.

But it's only the first season, and they haven't fully matured yet.

In addition... Nash's free throw ability is also extremely high, and it will be as high as 90.4% by the end of his future career.

But his career is not over yet.

Currently, his free throw percentage is 89.5%, still lower than Mark Price's.

But no matter what.

After acquiring Mark Price's free throw ability, Su Hao's free throw level directly reached the level of super free throw masters like Curry and Nash.

Strong.

One of the strongest.

"Mark Price's free throw ability came at just the right time, although you can't commit tactical fouls on off-ball players in the last two minutes."

But I think.

Coach Popovich will definitely continue to try to use the "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy on me, sending me to the free-throw line.

but.

If he dares to do that again, I will make him pay the price.

The main task going forward is to achieve 7 or more steals in a single game and help the team win.

I can then acquire Kyrie Irving's dribbling skills.

Even for a guard, it's difficult to get more than 7 steals in a single game.

I'm a 2.3-meter center, and the difficulty of getting 7 steals is ridiculously high; it's extremely difficult to accomplish.

Also... what's with Kyrie Irving's dribbling?!

Do you expect me, a 400-pound giant, to weave through the paint like a butterfly on the perimeter?! To shake off the opponent?!

Wow... That's outrageous.

Hmm...it seems like something to look forward to!!!
