Chapter 2: That Soul-stirring Bump
As I guessed, my golden finger allows me to pick up attributes dropped by other players on the field and add them to myself.
"100% appearance? This system is pretty real." Chen Yi murmured.
However, apart from the appearance, all the values in the entire attribute panel are currently low, and the overall rating is only 65.
Wait, the system said lottery?
Chen Yi said in his heart: "Hurry up and draw it for me!"
"Ding! Because the host's appearance is at the maximum level, the probability of winning is reduced to 0."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for drawing the maximum level of [Strength] value!"
In an instant, the panel changed slightly. Chen Yi's gaze returned to the basic attribute column. The strength value suddenly increased to 100, which was particularly noticeable.
Chen Yi's eyes showed joy.
"Hey, Chen, what are you doing!?"
On the court, Nick Young's shout brought Chen Yi back to his senses.
Chen Yi held the ball and the timer had started running.
"Hahaha, is he in a daze?" Barkley laughed mercilessly at the commentary desk.
"This Oriental guy seems to be scared. No wonder, his small body can't withstand LeBron's collision." Kenny Smith also laughed.
Chen Yi came to his senses, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and quickly dribbled the ball towards half court. He almost committed an 8-second violation.
His current ball control value is 65, barely passing, and he can safely bring the ball to the frontcourt without James defending him.
James lowered his center of gravity and came forward.
Chen Yi swallowed his saliva. Being in such close contact with the chosen one, he felt a sense of oppression. The nervousness disrupted the rhythm of his dribbling.
Young player Nick Young started reaching for the ball in the elbow area.
Chen Yi was worried that the ball would be cut off, so he quickly passed the ball on the ground, and then took James to the corner, allowing Nick Young to play one-on-one.
James stared at the unfamiliar Chen Yi while directing his teammates to their positions.
After standing at the bottom corner, Chen Yi carefully thought about everything that had just happened.
Chen Yi, who has read a lot of online novels, knows that the legendary system has arrived.
I have a simple understanding of the basic functions and data panel of picking up attributes. As for the mall, points and other functions mentioned above, they are still to be developed.
On the court.
After getting the ball, Nick Young showed off his dribbling skills crazily, swaying back and forth to shift the focus of the defensive players, and finding the right time to take a step back and take a mid-range jump shot.
Bang!
The basketball drew a high arc and hit the side of the basket hard.
McGee in the interior competed with O'Neal for the rebound. The old Shark could only rely on his weight to push McGee away, but even so he was still hit by McGee's long arms.
The basketball flew towards the baseline.
Chen Yi looked at the location of the basketball and ran forward.
James was also behind to prepare for the interception.
The two people jumped almost at the same time.
Seeing this scene, Yang Yi in the domestic studio frowned. Chen Yi and James were about to collide in the air.
The Cavaliers fans continued to cheer loudly, as if they had already seen the rookie being knocked away on the court.
"Oh, this oriental kid collided with LeBron. His Wizards teammates have to run to the sidelines to catch him immediately." Barkley explained sharply.
Chen Yi only had eyes for the basketball, but after he jumped, a big hand blocked his view.
At the same time, his shoulder collided with James's shoulder.
A huge force pushed towards him, but Chen Yi, holding his breath, used all his muscles in the air to stabilize his body and pushed against James' body to grab the ball.
James' jumping height completely crushed Chen Yi, and the basketball was picked up by James.
But the moment James got close to Chen Yi, it was as if he had hit a wall. The powerful impact caused him to stagger backward unconsciously after landing.
Barkley rolled his eyes. The rookie was not knocked to the sidelines as he expected.
This is a bit unbelievable.
In the entire NBA, how many guards can withstand James's collision?
James took a few steps back and finally managed to steady himself, but when his hands lost strength, Chen Yi quickly snatched the ball away.
24-second offensive reset.
James quickly stopped in front of Chen Yi.
He never underestimated any opponent, but the collision just now was enough to surprise him.
Did I slip?
Chen Yi was dribbling the ball on the wing. He felt the infinite power hidden in his body. The muscle lines on his arms became more obvious, and the veins on his forearms became more prominent.
The tension in my heart immediately subsided.
Waving to teammate Nick Young to come over for a pick-and-roll, the Cavaliers' Danny Green switched defense to Chen Yi.
At this time, Green was not the future Grimm Fairy Tale. His defense had not been practiced yet and his lateral movement speed was slow.
Boom, boom!
Chen Yi stretched out his right foot to test it out, then suddenly accelerated and sprinted forward.
Danny Green opened his arms to block the way ahead. Chen Fan stepped on the edge of the paint area, holding the basketball tightly and took three steps.
His breakthrough speed was not fast, and Danny Green easily caught up with him, but when Chen Yi started to layup, Danny Green felt like he was facing a sprinting tank.
Danny Green's chest hit Chen Yi's shoulder, and he was immediately thrown out.
Chen Yi held the ball in both hands and jumped. His body had good explosive power and arm span, so it was not too difficult for him to cut in and dunk. He aimed at the basket in the air and slammed it down.
Seeing that the opponent was about to score, Valanciunas gave up defending McGee, quickly rushed to the basket and raised his hands high, trying to interfere.
The unstoppable Chen Yi was not afraid of Varejao's defense and only had eyes for the basket.
Bang!
After a powerful two-handed dunk, Chen Yi hung on the rim for a while before landing on the ground.
The scoreboard changed to 71-86.
Valanciunas was knocked away by the huge impact, staggered backward and fell on the basket.
The Cavaliers home court fell silent.
The few Wizards fans on the court were about to fall asleep, but this dunk made them excited again.
Head coach Sanders clenched his fist and waved it, whispering "yes"!
Chen Yi clenched his fists and looked at the muscles in his arms with satisfaction.
Is this the power value of 100?
As a 2k game fan, Chen Yi still remembers O'Neal in his prime, whose strength was only 99!
"What a great shot! Chen Yi dunked over Varejao and scored his first point in his career!" In the domestic commentary booth, Yang Yi was a little excited watching this scene.
Coach Zhang narrowed his eyes in surprise and said, "That's not right. Chen Yi used to rely on his physical strength to play basketball. How could he have changed so much in two and a half years in the US?"
TNT TV.
Kenny Smith exclaimed: "WOW! What did I see? This Oriental guy dunked over Anderson (Varejao)? What kind of jumping ability is this!"
Barkley blinked, horrified. "No, I should say, why is he so powerful?"
Scoring against defenders requires a lot of core strength and physical fitness.
Valanciunas, who plays the power forward position, weighs 124 kg.
Chen Yi not only squeezed him out of the way, but even dunked with both hands as if he was in an empty space.
In addition to this dunk, Barkley also noticed Chen Yi's movements before starting the dunk.
Simply dribble the ball, then sprint in with the basketball between your legs against the defender.
It was like carrying a bomb, and Barkley even wondered if LeBron James was wearing the wrong jersey.
Didn't James slip just now?
"Chen! Do you have this kind of ability?" Nick Young ran up to Chen Yi and patted his butt to celebrate.
Jamison, who had been dunked over by O'Neal before, finally felt relieved.
Chen Yi didn't have time to celebrate and quickly ran to the top of the arc.
On the Cavaliers side, James, racing against time, has already taken the ball and is ready to attack.
