Chapter 104: The Night of Records, Publicly Humiliating LeBron
Chapter 104: The Night of Records, Publicly Humiliating LeBron
"Alright, let's get started. This is TNT's national live broadcast, with Barkley, Kenny Smith, and Chris Webber providing commentary."
"The Cavaliers got possession of the ball, and Mo Williams passed it to LeBron."
On the court, Zhou Yi looked at James, whose eyes were red, staring at him, and then glanced at Jamison.
At this moment, Zhou Yi recalled the news he had seen before the game: before arriving in Los Angeles, James publicly recruited Jamison in front of reporters.
But the player he had just shown goodwill to turned around and joined the Clippers.
At this moment, LeBron James is like an incompetent husband in a Japanese movie, only able to watch his beautiful wife and the strong young man next door leave, whispering sweet nothings to each other.
Zhou Yi and Jamison's pleasant practice and communication before the game was like a series of screams coming from next door, stimulating LeBron's nerves.
"Zhou, I will dominate this game."
After saying that with a sense of dominance, James immediately started using the crab walk.
After a seemingly harmless feint, he chose to drive towards the inside, pushing past Zhou Yi.
When he saw James charging towards him, Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and stretched out his long arm to try his best to block James.
A loud bang was heard as the two bodies collided, but the situation that James had imagined—that Zhou Yi would be directly pushed aside—did not occur.
The Book of Changes simply pushed back one step, and it dissipated James's monstrous strength.
Seeing that he hadn't broken through Zhou Yi's defense immediately, James' eyes showed impatience.
After passing the basketball to his left hand, James charged straight toward the basket with the ball in his arms.
Despite his large frame and thick waist, LeBron James is quite skilled at his work, quickly maneuvering his crab legs.
Shit! James suddenly unleashed a shameless move, catching Zhou Yi off guard.
But Zhou Yi stayed close to James, his outstretched arm obscuring James's shooting vision.
James didn't know how many steps he took, but with no space to shoot, he had no choice but to pass the ball to Mo Buchuan.
In the corner, Mo Buchuan was enjoying the duel between James and Zhou Yi when the basketball suddenly flew towards him, startling him.
Seeing Mo Buchuan stumble and catch the ball, LeBron James's face instantly darkened.
Fortunately, the ball was passed to Baron Davis despite his interference, and it eventually went into the basket.
James only regained his composure after the three-pointer went in.
After giving Zhou Yi a domineering snort, James retreated to the backcourt to defend, leaving Mo Buchuan touching his chest, feeling like he had just walked on the brink of death.
"Sir, isn't this walking?"
Seeing James steal a three-pointer with his awful, unsportsmanlike footwork, Zhou Yi immediately walked up to the referee and protested with his hands outstretched.
Since acquiring the LeBang Spread Hand talent, Zhou Yi has rarely used this divine skill, but today, facing bad guys, he can only use barbarians against barbarians.
"I didn't see it... Okay, Zhou, maybe you're right, I'll see it clearly next time."
Seemingly because he rarely uses this talent, after Zhou Yi quickly spread his hands three times to apply pressure, the referee suddenly changed his tune.
Meanwhile, James, watching this scene, suddenly felt something was off and scratched his head.
Damn, how come this kid even copied my trick?
Seeing that the referee seemed to have changed his stance, Zhou Yi stopped pressing the issue and was content with just slightly restricting the crab legs.
The game continued, and the Clippers had possession of the ball.
"Attack! Attack!"
Clippers fans on the sidelines were cheering loudly for their home team.
James's dance moves in the last possession were truly disgusting to Clippers fans, and now they can't wait to see the Clippers take a decisive blow in this offensive possession.
Baron Davis brought the ball up the court and then passed it to the round-faced Duncan who had made a run out of position under a screen.
As soon as the three-pointer was released, the round-faced Deng could sense that the ball's trajectory seemed a bit inaccurate.
The sideline cameras were all focused on the basketball flying through the air, and then, amidst the collective sighs of the Clippers fans, the basketball bounced off the rim and flew away.
"Rebound!"
James quickly shouted those words, and a blue and white figure rushed out from behind him, grabbing the basketball in mid-air with a large hand.
It was Zhou Yi who, after noticing that the ball might be missed by the round-faced Deng, predicted the landing point using Josh Hart's rebounding talent.
After securing this valuable offensive rebound, Zhou Yi saw that O'Neal was already closing in, so he decisively threw the ball back to the round-faced Deng.
This time, the round-faced Deng seized the opportunity.
"Oh! Zhou's crucial rebound helped the Clippers tie the score."
On the TNT commentary desk, Barkley joined the Clippers fans in applause and continued to praise them.
"The Clippers are still the same team as last season, but Zhou Yi's addition has brought them absolute talent. Look at this young man."
Barkley said this with an appreciative look on his face.
"He can solve the scoring problem in crucial moments, he can lead the defense, help the defense, and rebound. He and James are the two most versatile small forwards right now."
Upon seeing Barkley say that, Kenny, who was standing nearby, quickly dug a hole for himself.
"Charles, so who do you think is the most versatile small forward in the league right now?"
"Hehe, whoever wins this match is the winner."
The quick-witted Barkley, not wanting to be humiliated by Buster, uttered a pointless remark.
But his eyes betrayed his thoughts; he stared intently at Clippers number eight on the court.
The game continued, and the Cavaliers were clearly well-prepared for this match.
Shortly after the game started, O'Neal was substituted by Bread Brown and replaced by Big Z.
Although Zydrunas Ilgauskas's footwork is even slower than Shaquille O'Neal's, the Lithuanian giant at least has a soft long-range shooting touch, which can create some space for James to drive to the basket.
With O'Neal and Kaman no longer hindering the paint, James definitely played more comfortably.
However, the score remained very close, with the Clippers, led by Zhou Yi, keeping the score firmly in their grasp.
With one minute remaining in the first quarter, the score was tied at 27-27.
With the Cavaliers in possession of the ball and unable to take the lead, James grew increasingly impatient.
James received the ball from Mobvoi and, with the help of Zydrunas Ilgauskas's screen, found a way to drive.
However, Zydrunas Ilgauskas's screen wasn't solid, and Zhou Yi forced his way through, catching up with James.
Seeing Zhou Yi reach out his arm as he chased after him, James inadvertently resorted to his old tricks again.
Kid, you've never seen this footwork technique that's been used for over a decade, have you?
With a few long strides, James shook off Zhou Yi, leaving the unguarded basket in front of him waiting for LeBron's invasion.
Just as James was about to make a layup, an unexpected whistle blew out.
"LeBron, traveling foul, Clippers possession."
The basketball slipped directly from James's hands. James, who hadn't been called for a traveling violation in a long time, stiffly turned his head, his face full of disbelief.
The referee clenched his fists and drew circles in front of him, and even Zhou Yi, who was standing next to him, followed suit and made a couple of gestures.
In an instant, James' face turned red and black from the damn call.
Seeing the referee affected by LeBon's shrug, Zhou Yi couldn't help but marvel at the awesomeness of this divine skill.
He walked up to James.
"Hey LeBron, do you think you're going to dominate this game?"
"NO! This isn't Cleveland. Take your nonsense and back to Cleveland. This is my territory."
