Chapter 135 - Original Shun (2/2)
Both looked at each other and Ming was ready for Shun to charge inside, he knew that Shun had scored very well in his shooting test, but Shun hadn't tried to score from the outside, so he eliminated that possibility for now.
Of course, Shun was going to use outside shooting, and he was going to use it now.
Shun looked calmly at Ming and then smiled. Ming furrowed his brows slightly, but then they went up when Ming saw Shun jumping away from him.
Shun had jumped up for a shot, and he had used his favorite shot, and that was the 'Heaven' shot.
Ming tried to block, but because Shun's shooting far was so high and far away, he wasn't able to reach the ball.
Shun shot the ball, and it landed into the net with a swish.
Shun: ”Alright!”
-*-*-*-
Sarah on the sideline thought.
Sarah: 'That makes it from the perimeter, and the outside. His range is increasing, let's see if he can finish at the rim.'
-*-*-*-
Shun didn't disappoint as he decided to do something that he usually didn't do in his official games.
Shun moved to the post and posted-up when Douglas came to defend him.
Douglas frowned as he spoke to Shun.
Douglas: ”You do not think that you would win in this, do you?”
Shun smiled and said.
Shun: ”I know I will lose if I go against anyone of you in the post, so that is why I am going to pass.”
Immediately after saying that, Shun entered the pass motion to the left, and Douglas moved in the same direction to get a hand on the ball, but the pass was fake as Shun did a spin-move to the right and dribbled past Douglas.
Douglas: ”Aah!”
Shun: ”I know I can't win against you in physique, but I can trick you and get past you.”
Shun dribbled to the basket and jumped for a layup at the basket, but his reflexes blared as he saw Gilbert closing in on him from the side.
Shun immediately tried to change the course of the ball to the basket, by changing the layup and released the ball.
Shun was sure that it would go in, but he was wrong as Gilbert smacked the ball out of its path regardless.
Shun: ”Oh, crap!”
When they got to the ground, Gilbert looked at Shun and said.
Gilbert: ”Well, now is the time to get serious.”
Shun stared into Gilbert's eyes and saw he was serious.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-
After that, Gilbert got into his rhythm. And, forget Shun, even Ivan had difficulty scoring from the inside.
Gilbert would chase down anyone who tried to score on the inside and smack the ball in mid-air.
And, that made Team Yellow switch their tactics to outside scoring.
-*-*-*-
Shun ran to the mid-range and got the ball from Leonal.
Ming came to guard Shun. Shun was sure of what he was going to do.
Shun held the ball in both of his hands and raised them for a mid-range jump-shot.
Ming jumped for a block, and Shun smiled as he delayed his jump and drew a foul from Ming, using the 'Earth' shot.
Shun shot the ball, and at the same time, Albert blew a whistle for the foul.
The ball went to the rim, rotated on the rim, and dropped into the net.
Shun smiled and said.
Shun: ”Let's try for a third point, shall we?”
Shun walked to the free-throw line and made his free-throw and completed a three-point play.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-
Shun was right when he said that he wouldn't last ten minutes if he continued his copying play.
Because right now, the ten-minute stretch was over, and Shun was on the floor on the sideline feeling really tired.
He had played quite well in the last ten minutes, but playing at the pace of the other players was too taxing for Shun, and he was barely able to complete the stretch.
Shun panted as he said to himself.
Shun: ”Oh my god, this is really tough. I have to do this for eighteen more days.”
Shun g.r.o.a.n.e.d as he got up and got up to sit in his chair.
Sarah looked at Shun and said.
Sarah: ”Shun, if you want to rest, you can leave and rest. I don't think you would be able to play anymore today.”
Shun was tempted, but he shook his head and said.
Shun: ”No, it's alright, I want to stay here watch the game. Just seeing the game is good for me.”
He thought of something and asked Sarah.
Shun: ”You said that we could watch the games, right?”
Sarah nodded and asked.
Sarah: ”Yeah, why?”
Shun looked at the court and said.
Shun: ”Can I get a copy of the game videos?”
Sarah nodded and replied.
Sarah: ”Yeah, we can arrange that. Do you need them?”
Shun nodded and said.
Shun: ”Yeah, they will be really useful.”
