The ball passed by so quickly that no one expected it. Nie Chuan took a breath. Was the score that he had finally recovered going to be widened again?

Reese only took a step back, turned around suddenly and ran away. The three commentators all thought that Reese could not stop the ball, but Reese was too fast. He arrived at Owen's side in the blink of an eye, and the force of his leap was like a sharp blade piercing the sky!

Owen felt the pressure and immediately changed his layup to a dunk. However, his impact was not as strong as Reese's, and Reese blocked him mercilessly!

There were exclamations from the audience, and even Nie Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Everything seemed to go back to the time when Nie Chuan first met Reese. Decisive and sharp, nothing in this world could stop him from achieving his goal.

Nie Chuan's eyes felt hot. He rubbed them and when he opened them again, he still saw Reese.

Clear and real.

The commentators burst into applause after a two-second silence.

"That's great! Once again, I'm glad that I didn't meet this kid when I was in the NBA!" Robert said loudly.

"I still don't understand how he caught up with Owen! It was as if we entered a time tunnel, with the previous second and the next second disconnected!" Engel exclaimed.

Ben in the audience said, "Seton, isn't Reese too fast? Doesn't he need time to react?"

Seton's eyes darkened, making Ben feel inexplicably pressured: "Rather than saying that he didn't need time to react, it's better to say that he actually anticipated Owen's way of cutting in. He let Owen pass and let him layup just to block Owen."

"What? Why would he do that? What if Owen scores?" Ben asked in great confusion.

"Because Owen is the core of CBU's scoring." Seton smiled slightly coldly, "Blocking Owen's ball, which everyone thought would score, can shake the momentum of other CBU players and reduce Nie Chuan's scoring pressure."

"So Reese did this for Nie Chuan?"

"It's for DK." Seton tapped Ben on the head.

Just as Seton expected, Nie Chuan's eyes were full of Reese at the moment, until Carlo caught the ball and shouted: "Nie Chuan, what are you doing!"

Nie Chuan suddenly came to his senses and saw that Wright almost intercepted Carlo's pass. Nie Chuan sped up and intercepted the ball before Wright. With a fake move, he turned around and bypassed Wright and rushed to the opponent's basket.

His energy was extremely focused. When Reese blocked Owen's goal, Nie Chuan suddenly realized that as long as he was with Reese, nothing was possible!

He was extremely fast and entered the three-second zone in an instant. Christen and Thomas rushed up to defend Nie Chuan. The two masters joined forces to defend, and the audience's hearts were inexplicably tightened for Nie Chuan.

How will he get through?

Ewing was not far away, and Carlo also came to assist. With Nie Chuan's passing skills, he should be able to pass the ball. But what no one expected was that Nie Chuan pretended to break through to the left and stuck close to Christen. In order to avoid the opponent's hand, Nie Chuan had to move his body to the other side of Thomas. Thomas took the opportunity to lower his center of gravity and stretched out his hand to steal Nie Chuan's ball.

Many viewers broke out in a cold sweat for Nie Chuan and some even shouted.

At that critical moment, Nie Chuan suddenly stopped and retreated without warning. Thomas, who had no time to change his center of gravity, bumped into Kristen. This scene was like a magic.

Amid the exclamations of the audience, Nie Chuan dribbled the ball and rushed into the CBU basket, jumping directly to send the ball into the basket. The CBU center made an emergency shot, and even Owen and Reese rushed into the basket. Owen jumped up, and his position was closer to the basket than Reese.

However, Nie Chuan's ball did not touch the basket at all, and fell directly, avoiding the CBU center. Owen's fingertips passed by it but he was unable to catch it.

But Reese next to Owen jumped up and caught the ball with his right hand, then slammed the ball into the basket with his left hand!

The auditorium seemed to be blown apart.

"Really... so amazing!" Ben's eyes widened, "Is this actually Nie Chuan's response to Reese's goal just now?"

"What response?" Seton asked back with amusement.

"Nie Chuan knew that Owen was coming, so all of this was a trap set up by Nie Chuan to attract Owen. His original intention was to pretend to do a layup to attract fire and then Reese would score!"

"You seem to have become smarter recently?" Seton said with a smile.

Ben frowned. "It's not that I've become smarter, but after watching the game for so long... I understand more or less the trust that Reese and Nie Chuan have in each other. Every time I doubt that this trust is too blind, they always prove that they know each other so well. I really want to know how Owen is going to break the connection between these two people."

"It can't be disintegrated." Seton shook his head. "Owen is the only one, unless he can find his 'Nie Chuan'."

Ou En gave Nie Chuan a cold look, and Nie Chuan wiped the sweat from his chin with the back of his hand without caring.

At this time, the CBU coach used his timeout right.

Nie Chuan followed Reese back to the field.

Coach Gordon clapped his hands and said, "Well done, kids! According to my prediction, CBU will adjust its tactics."

"No matter what kind of adjustments he makes, Reese has already nailed Owen." Carlo put his arm around Reese's shoulder.

Although he was smiling at the moment, he couldn't hide his inner uneasiness.

The head coach of CBU is no less experienced and famous than Coach Gordon. He must have his reasons for calling a timeout at such a critical moment.

Nie Chuan turned his head and looked at all the CBU players surrounding their coach. Although their coach looked serious, his body language showed that he was very calm, and the players nodded frequently.

"If I'm right, they're going to go full court man-to-man."

"Man-to-man defense? That means one-on-one?" Carlo blinked. Using such tactics in the finals?

CBU's head coach is very confident in his players!

"And I guess he will continue to let Owen to contain Reese." Coach Gordon looked at Nie Chuan, "And Nie Chuan, you will not be facing Wright, but Christen."

Nie Chuan frowned: "Owen and Christen are both scoring pros. This will reduce CBU's scoring ability!"

"This also reduces DK's scoring ability." Coach Gordon replied.

"It doesn't matter, we still have Ewing! Montenegro and I will watch the basket, and Ewing will be responsible for shooting and scoring!" Carlo patted Ewing's shoulder, but Ewing frowned.

"If that's the case, he'll send Wright to deal with me," Ewing said.

Yes, with a guy like Wright who is flexible, fast and good at stealing the ball defending Ewing, Ewing basically had no chance to shoot.

"Montenegro and Carlo, you must improve your scoring ability under the basket. What should you do if you, Nie Chuan, are defended by Christen?" Coach Gordon asked Nie Chuan.

"Then I will lead Christen away from the basket, and Reese needs to help me block Owen. I can do fast breaks with Montenegro and Carlo to reduce the number of passes and increase the passing distance. This will increase the risk of the pass being intercepted, so I need Montenegro and Carlo to pay attention to their positioning."

"Very good." Coach Gordon nodded. "I hope everyone can adapt to the situation."

Nie Chuan looked at Reese. Deep down in his heart, he didn't think that Christen and Owen could completely cut off his cooperation with Reese.

The game continued. As soon as Nie Chuan stepped onto the court and saw Christen standing in front of him with a low center of gravity and ready for battle, he knew that Coach Gordon's prediction was correct.

He forced a smile and said, "Okay, Kristen, let's try it. Can you keep an eye on me?"

Wright dribbled the ball and passed Ewing like lightning, but Ewing did not give up and followed Wright at full speed.

Among DK, Ewing is the one who conserves the best physical strength. When Wright passed the ball to Thomas, Ewing suddenly appeared, which surprised Wright slightly. The moment he hesitated, Ewing boldly made a shot to intercept the ball, but Wright still raised his hand and dodged with the ball, and passed the ball to Thomas.

Ewing's obstruction gave Carlo time. He quickly turned to Thomas' side, intercepted Wright's pass, and quickly rushed to the CBU basket.

At this time, Christen and Owen gave up following their opponents and pressed to both sides of Carlo, which put Carlo under great pressure.

Reese came behind Carlo, took the ball from Carlo, and rushed to the basket. Owen followed closely and a competition of speed and explosiveness started under the basket.

Just as Reese was about to dunk, Owen blocked his way, but Reese took the ball back with both hands, shook it in front of his chest, and passed it to Nie Chuan who came over.

Christen tried to intercept the ball, but she had no idea how Nie Chuan did it. His footwork was like a dream, and he almost shook Christen off the ground. He raised his hand to make a layup with a light and pleasing posture.

Just when the audience was expecting the ball to go into the basket, Owen jumped up again regardless of everything. Ordinary players would pass the ball due to pressure, but Nie Chuan turned sideways in the air, forced a shot, and used his fingers to pass the ball around Owen's arm and threw it out.

The ball really hit the basket, and just as the audience was expressing regret, Owen opened his eyes wide and looked at the smile on Nie Chuan's lips.

All he heard was a huge dunking sound in his ears. It was Reese who jumped up, received the rebound and dunked it directly into the basket!

The audience cheered.

All of this happens so smoothly that people want to keep returning to defense.

Reese's left hand was still hanging on the basket. The moment he let go, he high-fived Nie Chuan who was running towards him.
