NBA: Rising Superstar!-Chapter 142 - 116: Tit for Tat, Crushing the Warriors!_2

"Jokic has many attacking methods from this position."

"Green didn’t defend well in this round."

Green was stunned on the court; he didn’t expect Zeng Xingyang’s lob pass to be so bold, directly breaking through his front defense.

Is this guy really not a top point guard?

Zeng Xingyang’s passing isn’t top-notch, but not bad either. He can predict Green’s defensive coverage, so he naturally knows if the ball can be passed through.

As long as it goes through, Jokic will have it easy.

Jokic waved at Zeng Xingyang, indicating that the pass was very comfortable.

Zeng Xingyang didn’t miss the chance to taunt Green, immediately bending down and gesturing low as he glided back to his half of the court.

You’re too short!

Zeng Xingyang’s taunting gesture quickly drew boos from the crowd.

"Who does this rookie think he is, being so arrogant."

"F*ck, really asking for a beating."

"Drummond, hurry up and teach him a lesson."

Warriors fans hadn’t encountered a rookie daring to provoke them in a long time.

Green also clapped vigorously, this rookie is interesting.

Acting tough won’t help, winning the game is what counts!

The Warriors are on the offense.

After Barnes continued to demand a pick and roll, Zeng Xingyang once again mismatched with Green.

Barnes didn’t attack Galinarli but passed the ball to Green.

Green observed around, while Zeng Xingyang chose to step back two steps, provocatively shouting, "What’s up? Only know how to set up for Stephen?"

"Your three-point shot is like trash in a trash can!"

"No, no, I misspoke, you’re a piece of trash too!"

Zeng Xingyang kept provoking Green.

Green, who’s already hot-headed, got provoked by Zeng Xingyang’s arrogance.

Thinking it’s just a regular-season game and the opponent isn’t particularly strong, he chose to shoot a three-pointer himself.

Green’s three-point shooting percentage this season is 38%, which is actually quite high, but Zeng Xingyang just took the gamble!

He simply isn’t someone who’s good at shooting threes.

This guy’s career three-point percentage is just about 30% at most, if he set up shots for Curry and Thompson, that success rate would be high.

Sure enough.

Green didn’t shoot these rhythm-less balls comfortably.

"Clang!"

The basketball slammed hard against the hoop.

Jokic outmuscled Izzy to control the rebound.

Curry saw Green take the shot and said nothing because the open space just now was indeed very large.

Zeng Xingyang taunted Green, "What, you couldn’t make the shot even when given the chance, want me to teach you how to shoot threes? Loser."

Being called a loser repeatedly by Zeng Xingyang, Green was fuming inside.

After Jokic got the ball, he dribbled it past half-court himself.

Zeng Xingyang ran out from the inside to get the ball, this time Galinarli did a screen midway, delaying Barnes.

Green chased after Zeng Xingyang.

"Bang!"

Jokic once again executed a solid hand-off screen.

Green was blocked; he even got knocked over.

But the referee didn’t blow the whistle; Izzy’s defense was a bit slow.

An open spot appeared at the top of the arc.

Received the ball in motion.

Planted his foot.

Jumped.

At the peak, he released the ball.

The basketball sketched a beautiful arc.

"Swish"

The Oracle Arena suddenly fell silent.

They were surprised to find that the Nuggets’ rookie’s shot was unexpectedly similar to Thompson’s.

Not just the shooting form being so standard, but even the overall rhythm of his positioning was comparable.

Looked really steady!

After scoring, Zeng Xingyang high-fived with Jokic in celebration.

After standing up, Green was gnashing his teeth with anger, continuously complaining to the referee about Jokic’s blocking foul.

"Loser, stop whining to the ref all the time," Zeng Xingyang continued to attack Green. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"F*ck."

"Rookie, what did you say?"

Green stormed over towards Zeng Xingyang.

"Called you a loser, did you hear that clearly?" Zeng Xingyang replied, stepping up.

Since the start, Green didn’t have a good attitude; naturally, Zeng Xingyang wasn’t going to be friendly either, he wasn’t afraid of trouble.

If it’s a fight you want, bring it on!

As a kid, Zeng Xingyang had many extracurricular activities and was sent by his dad to practice Sanda for a semester during weekends in middle school.

He’s an all-rounder of moral, intellectual, physical, and aesthetic development.

In Zeng Xingyang’s view, knocking Green down is a small matter.

If it’s a fight you’re after, I’ll be here whenever!

Green rushed over but didn’t make a move, instead glaring at Zeng Xingyang and clapping his hands hard with gritted teeth.

"Good!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

"Rookie, you’re dead."

Zeng Xingyang successfully provoked him.

Curry and Thompson exchanged a glance; it was the first time they saw Green getting riled up right at the start of a game.

In previous games, it would take a while before Green lost control.

Looks like tonight’s game will be interesting.

The Warriors are on the attack again.

This time, Green actively came outside the three-point line to organize.

Galinarli defended Green without the courage that Zeng Xingyang showed by giving him space, instead opted to harass him.

After looking around, Green gave the ball to Curry. Nelson didn’t lose his defensive position, and Curry’s desire to attack wasn’t strong, so Curry passed the ball to Barnes on the right low post.

Barnes backed into Zeng Xingyang; the players from both teams pulled away.

"Work him!"

"Harrison, teach this rookie a lesson."

"Make him know our terror!"

The home fans could see the conflict between Zeng Xingyang and Green; although they didn’t know the details of what was said, the tension was clear, and they all hoped the Warriors players could quickly regain some pride.

Zeng Xingyang kept pushing Barnes with his left hand while his right hand continuously tried to snatch the ball, providing constant pressure.
