The Way of Basketball: Never Talk Shit to Him!

Su Wan could contribute an average of 2.8 three-point shots per game, while Curry could hit an average of 3.2 three-point shots.

A reporter called them the "Splash Brothers."

Su Wan didn't like this nickname; he thought the sound of "splash" was too small. Thus, the "Waterfall Brothers" were born.

Whenever Su Wan or Stephen Curry made a three-point shot,

such shouts could be heard in New York.

The "three-point rain" of Su Wan and Stephen Curry also became a guarantee for the New York Knicks' victories on many occasions.

Barkley was also marvelling.

But what he marvelled at was the current NBA!

The importance of the three-point shot had reached such a level.

Not to mention 20 years ago, even 10 years ago, he wouldn't have thought so.

But now, he had to admit...

The three-point shot could very likely become the most important scoring method in the future development of the NBA, and it could even possibly change the ecology of the league—although the original Barkley had been saying until 2015 that championships could not be won solely by shooting.

But after witnessing New York's triumph last year, many of his thoughts had changed.

Especially his view on the three-point shot.

Now that New York had the "Waterfall Brothers," it was even more so...

But if you really want to hear it from Su Wan, the significance of the three-pointer that Barkley could foresee now was still far from what the three-pointer could actually achieve.

Because Curry hadn't reached his limit, nor had Su Wan.

In the next two years, his and Curry's performance beyond the three-point line would be even more fearsome. By then, they would be the true "Waterfall Brothers"!

The Heat Team counterattacked, with LeBron bulldozing his way through with a breakthrough. Paul George couldn't hold him back and was very wary of LeBron's Iron Elbow, letting him break into the free-throw line once again.

Su Wan swiftly slid forward, moving up to defend.

LeBron immediately threw the ball towards the direction Su Wan was coming from.

Wade, by a hair's breadth, caught the ball and charged into the paint. Once he picked up speed, Su Wan, turning to fall back, could only watch as Wade sped past him using his Mysterious Steps.

Tyson Chandler came up to defend in time, but he missed David Lee behind him.

"Swoosh!"

An easy two points from David Lee.

LeBron shouted at Wade, "Buddy, you could have gone straight for the attack. What a great opportunity!"

He mainly regretted that his assist had turned into an indirect assist.

But indirect assists weren't recorded as statistics.

Wade just smiled.

Spoelstra gestured for the Heat Team players, who were falling back to defend, to spread out their positions.

He still thought that the Knicks' three-point shots were more threatening.

As for Tyson Chandler's bombardment of the basket...

If the Knicks could finish off the Heat Team with Tyson Chandler's mid-motion catches, he'd accept it.

Sure enough, this time when Tyson Chandler received the ball from Dior, he didn't go for a direct layup. David Lee had positioned himself well, blocking Tyson Chandler's path forward and causing him to drift away from the basket.

In such a situation, Chandler's raw technique became apparent.

"Clang!"

Chris Bosh fought for the rebound and the Heat Team launched a counterattack.

Su Wan deliberately clapped his hands, drawing Bosh's attention, and sure enough, the guy passed the ball directly into Su Wan's hands.

The scene left the courtside audience stunned.

Bosh himself was also taken aback for a moment.

By this time, Wade was already preparing to attack. With Su Wan catching the ball open, he nailed the mid-range shot for two points.

"What is Chris doing?" Kenny Smith shook his head slightly, feeling that such a basic mistake shouldn't happen to Chris Bosh.

Barkley said, "Chris's role on the team this season has been too minor, his ways of joining the attack are limited, he doesn't handle the ball, he instinctively wants to pass after getting the rebound..."

That was the key to this blunder.

One could only say that Su Wan had a good grasp of Chris Bosh's psychology.

Having said that, Barkley laughed a bit, "Actually, many times on the court, it's also a psychological game!"

Why do some rounds look so simple in movement, yet the player breaking through can shake off their defender in one step?

The reason lies in small moves, the battle of glances; by the time of the final shot, the ball-handler and the defender have already exchanged several moves.

Many players who aren't physically strong but have excellent breakthrough ability are extremely adept at using their body's fake moves.

Take Larry Bird, for example.

Watching him play is absolutely a pleasure.

It also changes the stereotype about white players.

As for Jordan...

He was even more abnormal!

Not only did he have fake moves, but he had the physicality as well.

Ordinary players trying to imitate Jordan's play would find it impossible to mimic even a bit.

So don't say Kobe's physicality isn't up to par.

He's just a little less compared to the very top.

Not really deficient.

Waste!

LeBron, seeing Bosh lose the ball so easily, cursed in his heart; he had already run under the Knicks' basket and was thinking about his dunking action.

But aloud he said, "Don't mind it, don't mind it. Come on, guys, let's make the next play!"

In his opinion, this offensive play by the New York Knicks was already a failure; it was purely Su Wan's good luck, coming across a dumbass like Chris Bosh who gifted him a turnover.

This kind of situation would only happen once!

And...

As long as they scored on this play, the Heat Team would still be able to catch up with the score.

But this round, the one coming up to defend LeBron was Su Wan.

This was their first encounter in this game.
