Chapter 297: A Liver-Burning Punch! Worth Eight Small Goals! Chen Hao Wins!
In Klitschko's shocked gaze, Chen Hao easily dodged his powerful heavy punch.
The missed punch surprised Klitschko, but another punch quickly followed.
In the boxing ring, a boxer's punches have become muscle memory.
Once an opponent doesn't fall, punches will rain down on him like a storm until he collapses directly onto the ring.
Therefore, Klitschko's punching speed at this moment was quite fast; for an ordinary person, he wouldn't be able to see his fists clearly.
But for Chen Hao, while Klitschko, as a heavyweight boxing champion, did punch quickly and fiercely, for Chen Hao, it was still far from enough.
Chen Hao even actively shouted at Klitschko:
"Faster!
Too slow!
Your punching speed is really too slow!
Just like an eighty or ninety-year-old grandmother!
With such punching speed, why are you fighting me?"
Chen Hao spoke while dodging with Ali's butterfly step, displaying an indescribable ease and grace.
The audience below the ring was utterly stunned!
Chen Hao's effortless grace in the ring was something they had never imagined; how could this guy be so relaxed?
It was clear that Klitschko showed no signs of holding back; his punching speed was truly too fast!
But Chen Hao could still easily dodge his punches, and even had time to taunt Klitschko.
Such a scene was simply too absurd; they couldn't understand it at all!
And the live host exclaimed in shock:
"Oh my god!
Chen Hao's dodging speed is too fast!
If I'm not mistaken, he's currently using Ali's butterfly step dodging method!
When did this guy learn such a classic way to dodge?
And, judging by his appearance, he seems to be very relaxed!
While his opponent has already started to pant heavily!"
Anyone who has boxed should know that although a round is only two minutes, the energy expenditure in the ring is enormous.
Especially with continuous heavy punches that don't connect with the opponent, the physical exertion is even greater.
Klitschko now felt his stamina rapidly depleting, and his heart rate was rising frantically.
He knew very well that if this continued, he would run out of stamina before he even knocked Chen Haodown in the ring.
Therefore, he had to choose to rest for a moment.
So, under everyone's gaze, Klitschko actively stepped back a large step, choosing to give up attacking Chen Hao.
At this moment, Klitschko no longer dared to underestimate Chen Hao; his dodging movements were simply too fast, indicating that Chen Hao was a professional boxer.
Moreover, as Klitschko rapidly retreated, he also actively protected his head with both hands, adopting a full defensive posture.
Just when he thought he was foolproof, Chen Hao loudly shouted at him:
"Are you done hitting?
If you're done, then it's my turn!"
As soon as his words fell, Chen Hao's fist had already smashed towards Klitschko.
Although Klitschko protected his head with both hands, the lower part of his ribs was not defended.
And Chen Hao's fist directly struck this position, a punch known as a liver shot!
General professional boxers will choose to attack this area because it is most likely to incapacitate someone.
But similarly, professional boxers will also provide ample protection for this area or have undergone sufficient striking practice.
Klitschko believed that this part of his body could withstand heavy blows from many players, so he chose not to protect it well.
Besides, as long as Chen Hao punched this part of him, he could use that time difference to strike Chen Hao's head.
It was just a trap he deliberately set for Chen Hao, waiting for Chen Hao to step into it.
And at this moment, Chen Hao actively punched him, filling Klitschko with excitement.
"He finally fell for it!"
At this moment, Klitschko had finished charging up and was ready to punch Chen Hao's head as soon as Chen Hao's punch hit the lower part of his ribs.
This way, Chen Hao would surely be easily knocked out by him in the ring.
However, just as Klitschko was about to punch Chen Hao's head, intense pain shot through his lower abdomen!
In that instant, he seemed to see his great-grandmother!
Then, his expression became incredibly painful and ferocious, and he actually bent over like that, directly kneeling on the ground!
At this time, Chen Hao did not continue to punch; instead, he watched Klitschko, who was kneeling on the ground, with interest.
Chen Hao was very clear about the force of that punch; it would be harder than ascending to heaven for Klitschko to stand up again.
The power of a liver shot is not just strong; this kind of strike will make the opponent instantly lose any ability to resist, causing him to fall directly to the ground.
Klitschko's resistance to blows was indeed very strong; if another boxer had hit him in that spot, he would generally be able to tough it out and counterattack.
But this time, an accident happened!
No error version is being read! First published novel.
The power of Chen Hao's punch far exceeded his imagination; he simply couldn't withstand it, and his entire being had lost the ability to think, so he knelt down and then directly collapsed onto the ring!
The entire audience fell into silence!
Even the referee forgot to count!
Chen Hao kindly reminded him:
"Hey, ref, shouldn't you start counting?"
At this moment, the referee finally reacted from his shock and began to count while looking at Klitschkoon the ground!
"10, 9, 8, 3, 2, 1!"
Ten seconds passed, but Klitschko still showed no signs of getting up.
He was now in a semi-shock state, completely unable to think independently.
So, the referee stood up again, signaling the end of the match!
And on the big screen at the venue, the scene of Chen Hao's punch hitting Klitschko's abdomen just moments ago appeared!
Through slow motion, it could be clearly seen that the force of Chen Hao's punch was quite terrifying; Klitschko's liver might have already been directly pulverized by Chen Hao!
The live commentator exclaimed loudly:
"Oh my god!
Chen Hao knocked out Klitschko in the ring with one punch!
His liver shot was too powerful!
Did you see the slow motion?
That punch even seemed to directly smash his body!
This guy's strength is truly terrifying!
Chen Hao continues to win this match!
Oh my god!
This was a world boxing champion, and he was knocked out by Chen Hao with one punch?"
At the same time, the executives of the betting company, who had been following this boxing match, completely wet themselves!
This time, they were definitely going bankrupt!
Because Chen Hao had bet all his appearance fees on himself!
Chapter 298 The plan was successful! Chen Hao successfully took over the gaming company and became the capital!
Because of Chen Hao, this boxing match was broadcast All-America, and almost all Fans and boxing Fans saw Chen Hao easily KO Klitschko.
Especially the audience from Long Country, they were incredibly shocked by Chen Hao's strong victory this time:
"If we had known Chen Hao's boxing strength was so formidable, the Olympic Games should have let him participate in boxing as well!"
"The idea should be even bolder; let him also participate in short-distance running, he should be able to win the championship there too!"
"And the high jump, his aerial height is not just ordinarily high!"
"Then, he could even participate in the triathlon events; he should be able to win those easily too!"
"I'm even starting to doubt if he's really an East Asian; his physical fitness is practically invincible!"
Indeed, Chen Hao was frighteningly strong now, even netizens from Long Country began to jokingly tease him.
However, while netizens in Long Country were joking, netizens in the United States did not share the same interest.
Because most boxing Fans had already placed the majority of their bets on Klitschko, Chen Hao's upset KO of his opponent this time caused them heavy losses.
Chen Hao once again proved that he possessed powerful boxing strength, and once again made American boxing Fans doubt life.
Similarly, Chen Hao's teammates were also doubting life at this moment.
Because they once again brushed past a huge fortune, this missed opportunity made them almost despair!
Chen Hao had clearly told them to trust his strength and not to have any doubts.
And Chen Hao himself believed in himself, placing all his appearance fees on himself.
Therefore, the prize money Chen Hao received now had already reached 800 million usd, which was simply unbelievable.
Chen Hao earned wealth that many people couldn't earn in several lifetimes, with just two boxing matches.
Most importantly, he even proactively asked his teammates to bet on him, pointing them towards the path to riches.
However, they still didn't listen to his advice and chose to trust their own judgment.
So, the teammates who once again missed out on wealth felt a moment of daze as they looked at the excited Chen Hao in the ring.
At this moment, Chen Hao originally wanted to celebrate with his teammates, but upon seeing their expressions, he immediately reacted:
"Hey, why do you all have such expressions?"
"Don't tell me, you still didn't choose to believe me this time?"
"So, you put all your money on that guy?"
"Honestly, you really did disappoint me a bit!"
"Am I really that unconvincing to you?"
Chen Hao's words left his teammates speechless; they indeed did not have complete confidence in Chen Hao.
And at this moment, Jefferson proactively asked Chen Hao:
"Hey, let's not talk about that anymore, what I want to know now is, when will you have your third boxing match?"
"This time, I will definitely bet my entire fortune on you!"
"I will absolutely not have any doubts about your strength anymore!"
"Yes, this time we will unconditionally believe you!"
"So, please, you must have another challenge match!"
"We want to win back everything we lost before!"
The teammates all stared at Chen Hao with expectant eyes, hoping to get the answer they wanted from Chen Hao's mouth.
However, under their gaze, Chen Hao smiled and shook his head:
"It's not that I don't want to accept another challenge, but rather I believe no one dares to challenge me anymore!"
"Because, if my prediction is correct, the betting company should have already gone bankrupt!"
Chen Hao's words made his teammates completely quiet; they knew Chen Hao was right, this betting company was completely ruined!
Chen Hao only used two boxing matches to win over a billion usd from them; how could they continue to survive?
In fact, Chen Hao really hadn't miscalculated; the betting company was indeed in dire straits.
"Damn it, how did you investigate him before?
He is so strong, yet you actually thought he couldn't defeat Klitschko?
Now, he has won over a billion from us, and it's usd!
How do you expect us to explain this to him now?
Now it's over, we can all pack up and leave!
Our betting company has been completely ruined by him!"
The CEO of the betting company was now expressing his depressed emotions to a group of executives, his face full of despair.
The executives had no intention of refuting the CEO's angry outburst, as it was indeed the truth.
And now, they faced only one outcome: bankruptcy.
Because they simply couldn't produce such a large cash flow to pay Chen Hao's prize money; it was simply an astronomical figure.
However, there was still a compromise solution, which was to directly mortgage this betting company to Chen Hao, making Chen Hao the largest shareholder of this betting company.
This way, these executives might still be able to continue in their positions.
However, before that, they still had to get Chen Hao's consent, otherwise, they would truly only be able to file for bankruptcy.
After finishing the interview with reporters, Chen Hao received a call from his agent.
Correct version is being read! First published in this novel.
The agent told Chen Hao a piece of news he had already anticipated over the phone:
"The betting company is unable to pay Chen Hao such a huge prize, so they can only file for bankruptcy or let Chen Hao take over the betting company."
Regarding this outcome, Chen Hao was naturally willing to take over the betting company and become its largest shareholder.
This way, he could earn more wealth through various means.
This was actually part of Chen Hao's plan; the money that could be earned from playing basketball was ultimately limited.
Even the God of Basketball like Jordan, his income from playing basketball only accounted for a very small portion of his personal income.
Most of his income was concentrated in dividends from shoe companies and investments, and Chen Hao was now looking to expand his business empire on a larger scale.
And the gambling industry in the United States is actually very developed, covering various industries.
Under these circumstances, Chen Hao naturally chose to become a super shareholder of a betting company, becoming a member of capital.
Thus, at Chen Hao's instruction, the agent began to arrange for Chen Hao to take over the betting company.
And the news about Chen Hao soon becoming a major shareholder of a betting company quickly swept across the entire United States.
When the Fans learned of this news, they all felt incredible:
"Oh my God, this must be considered a business miracle in American history, right?"
"Chen Hao took over a betting company with just two boxing matches!"
"Even movie scripts wouldn't dare to write something like this, would they?"
When David Stern, the NBA commissioner, learned that Chen Hao had become a major shareholder of a betting company, he also remained silent for a long time.
He knew that once Chen Hao became a shareholder of a betting company, he was no longer a pure basketball player; he had become a part of capital.
And at this moment, Chen Hao was already a being that Stern had to look up to.
Because after Chen Hao became a major shareholder of a betting company, his asset valuation could no longer be measured by a simple billion usd.
Coupled with his investments in other areas and his business influence, his current net worth valuation has exceeded ten billion usd.
Therefore, Chen Hao will become the highest-valued active NBA player in history!
Chapter 299: Against the Nuggets! Spoiler of Jr's life, Jr's mentality collapsed!
When the news spread that Chen Hao had taken over the betting company and become its largest shareholder, the entire All-America was shaken.
A basketball player goes to a boxing match, ends up winning against a boxing Championship, and even becomes the largest shareholder of a betting company.
This was truly too surreal; ordinary people couldn't even imagine it.
As for Chen Hao, he appeared remarkably calm, as this was the outcome he desired.
However, even if Chen Hao were to accept a boxer's challenge now, he would no longer have high odds.
Because after two consecutive upsets, no one considered Chen Hao an amateur boxer anymore; he had proven his strength.
So, if Chen Hao were to truly have a third boxing match, many Fans would surely bet on him to win.
Of course, for Chen Hao, who had already become the largest shareholder of a betting company, this had no downside.
Anyway, all the profits would be his, whether he won or lost, he would ultimately be the biggest winner.
It's just that it was no longer suitable to continue accepting challenges, as he needed to let his reputation cool down for a while.
After all, his main profession was still playing basketball, and the time for his return was already approaching.
Therefore, Chen Hao announced that he would temporarily not accept challenges from others, but that did not mean he would not step into the ring.
"I told you a long time ago, I am just a fighting enthusiast."
"Although I have won against my opponents consecutively, I am still an NBA player."
"Now, the league's suspension on me has expired."
"I need to return to the basketball court."
"So, if you want to keep following me, you can also follow my basketball games!"
"I definitely won't disappoint you!"
Chen Hao's words excited many Boston Celtics Fans; they were already eager to see Chen Hao appear on the court.
Chen Hao had also confirmed his return two days later, and his opponent for his comeback was the Western Conference powerhouse, the Denver Nuggets.
This season, the Nuggets' strength had greatly improved due to the addition of Chauncey Billups, which significantly enhanced their backcourt strength.
Therefore, their current record had already placed them in second position in the Western Conference.
Upon learning that Chen Hao would make his comeback in the game against them, the Nuggets Fansseemed very excited:
"Great! Our team will definitely teach this guy a lesson!"
"He still remembers he's an NBA player? I thought he was changing professions!"
"He should just go box; the NBA doesn't need such a savage player!"
"This kind of player is a menace in the NBA; he's likely to injure opponents!"
"Strongly recommend expelling this guy from the league; he doesn't deserve to play in this league!"
Clearly, these Nuggets Fans were quite aggressive, believing that Chen Hao was neglecting his duties and should be directly expelled from the NBA.
But what they didn't know was that precisely because of those two previous boxing matches, many boxing Fans were now very interested in Chen Hao's performance on the basketball court.
Therefore, this Boston Celtics versus Denver Nuggets game had been changed to an All-America live broadcast.
Moreover, according to preliminary estimates, this live broadcast would be the highest-rated game of the season.
Many boxing Fans wanted to see how Chen Hao, who dominated the boxing ring, would perform on the basketball court.
In response, Commissioner David Stern even warned the referees officiating this game:
"In this game, your officiating standards must be consistent!"
"Do not, under any circumstances, show favoritism because it is the Nuggets' home court."
"I want the Fans to see a spectacular game!"
Since the Commissioner had already spoken, the referees naturally dared not have any other thoughts.
On the day of the game, Chen Hao appeared at the venue with a relaxed expression.
Aside from Chen Hao's relaxed expression, many of his teammates, however, wore faces full of gloom.
After all, in those two boxing matches, they had suffered heavy losses due to Chen Hao's upset victories.
However, they couldn't blame Chen Hao for their problems.
Because Chen Hao had already warned them, telling them to bet on him to win, guaranteeing a profit.
But in the end, they still didn't believe Chen Hao's words, and consequently suffered heavy losses.
So, naturally, they were not in a good mood now.
Especially now that Chen Hao had returned, seeing him immediately reminded them of their previous losses; how could they be in a good mood?
In contrast, the Nuggets players were all very excited, as they were currently on a five-game winning streak.
They were determined to win today's game, wanting to maintain their winning streak in front of their home Fans.
The uncensored version is being read! This novel is being published for the first time.
As the team's star player, Anthony, he was equally confident about this game.
In his opinion, although Chen Hao was strong, he had been suspended for ten days and had also gone to box, so his condition couldn't be very good.
Therefore, this was the best opportunity for the Denver Nuggets.
As for Billups, he was also familiar with Chen Hao and had suffered quite a few losses at his hands.
This time, he had to get his revenge on Chen Hao.
As the referee's whistle blew, the game officially began!
The starting lineup for the Denver Nuggets was:
Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Kenyon Martin, Nene Hilario, and J.R. Smith.
Furthermore, the Denver Nuggets Head Coach specifically instructed J.R. to closely guard Chen Hao, ensuring he was inseparable from him.
As a rookie player, J.R. was naturally very excited to be trusted so much by the Head Coach.
Moreover, he believed his physical conditioning was no worse than Chen Hao's.
He could also easily perform various spectacular dunks, and even complete explosive pull-up layups.
And he was also jokingly referred to by many Fans as "Jordan's physique from the neck down"!
A player with such physical conditioning was naturally the best choice for defending Chen Hao.
So, as soon as the game started, J.R. was already in front of Chen Hao, with a very serious expression.
Seeing J.R. appear before him, Chen Hao smiled and teased him:
"Hey, do you want to know what your future career will be like?"
Chen Hao's nonsensical words left J.R. with a face full of question marks:
"What are you talking about?"
"My future career?"
"That will naturally be quite successful!"
"I will win my Championship with the Denver Nuggets!"
At this moment, J.R. was full of confidence in his future and believed that the Denver Nuggets would successfully win the Championship.
Chen Hao looked at the confident J.R. and also smiled, shaking his head:
"You will win a Championship, but not with the Denver Nuggets!"
"You can choose to join us; I will lead you to win more Championships!"
"And your life won't have so many regrets!"
Chapter 300: Nervous Knife Jr.? Not anymore, he only has nerves left!
Originally, JR looked at Chen Hao's mysterious demeanor and thought he really had some explosive news, but then realized he was just being deliberately enigmatic.
"Hey, I admit you're strong on the basketball court."
"But if you want to convince me, I think you'll have to show some real strength."
"This is a basketball court, not a boxing ring."
"You should know, our Nuggets are very strong!"
At this time, JR was still young and incredibly confident.
In response, Chen Hao shrugged indifferently and said, "Since you've said so, then you'll see what true strength is in a moment."
Chen Hao said no more; he knew JR's personality well.
Only by completely defeating him would he listen to Chen Hao seriously.
When Anthony saw Chen Hao proactively speaking to JR, he quickly walked over, staring at Chen Haowarily and asking, "Hey, what did you say to my brother?"
Chen Hao shook his head, smiling playfully, "Your team has a good record this season, and I want to test your strength."
"Are you ready?"
Anthony was actually the clearest about Chen Hao's strength.
During the Olympic Games, he had already experienced Chen Hao's power.
This guy, relying solely on his own strength, forcibly transformed a second-tier team into Olympic Games champions.
Moreover, he had defeated the USA Team twice in a row.
As for the players on the USA Team, almost all of them had been taught a lesson by Chen Hao.
Therefore, this made many USA players wary of Chen Hao.
Now, facing Chen Hao again at home, Anthony was still full of caution.
He knew Chen Hao's strength, but he also hoped to defeat Chen Hao's Celtics today.
After all, the Nuggets now were no longer the same Nuggets as last year.
The ball-dominant Iverson had been traded to the Pistons, and they now had Billups, the Pistons' strongest point guard.
He had excellent abilities at the point guard position and could make the Nuggets' offense incredibly smooth.
They even easily defeated the Lakers in a game a few days ago.
Furthermore, Kobe was also well-contained by them.
Because of this, they had great confidence in their own strength, believing they could become the team with the best record in the entire league.
Now, facing the Celtics, it was time to test their strength.
So, while Anthony was wary of Chen Hao, he couldn't say he was truly afraid of Chen Hao.
After all, his teammates were all strong now, whereas Chen Hao's teammates, in reality, didn't have many who could play well.
Anthony did not continue to provoke Chen Hao but instead motioned for JR to go back and warm up.
He knew Chen Hao's personality; as long as he wasn't actively provoked, he generally wouldn't actively humiliate others.
As the referee's whistle blew, the game officially began!
Both sides jumped ball!
Nene vs. Jefferson!
Nene won the tip-off!
The Nuggets attacked first!
Billups dribbled past half-court!
At this moment, Chen Hao appeared in front of Anthony.
Anthony's expression turned a bit ugly at Chen Hao's appearance.
Because according to custom, Chen Hao should have been defending Billups, not him.
And when Billups saw Anthony being defended closely by Chen Hao, he immediately changed his mind.
He passed the ball to JR.
JR was known as a 'headcase'; when he was in good form, even his teammates were afraid.
At this time, after receiving the ball, he made a series of pump fakes and then suddenly pulled up for a three-pointer!
The Celtics' defense on him was still too relaxed.
This time, JR seized the opportunity!
He calmly made the three-pointer!
3:0!
The Nuggets took the lead!
JR, who had just made the three-pointer, was extremely excited, and he loudly provoked the Celticsplayers, "Hey, did you see that?"
"This is the strength of our Denver Plateau!"
"I'm going to shoot you guys down!"
At this moment, the camera switched to Chen Hao's face; he didn't show much expression.
No error version is being read! First published novel.
At this moment, Chen Hao had already dribbled past half-court.
The Nuggets paid great attention to Chen Hao, and George Karl even directly arranged a double-team.
JR and Billups had surrounded Chen Hao.
At this point, it was not an easy task for Chen Hao to complete an offense.
Moreover, Chen Hao's desire to attack was not strong at the moment, so he directly passed the ball to his teammate Jefferson.
But when Jefferson was about to complete a layup, he was slapped away by Nene.
Jefferson was also directly knocked to the ground!
This outcome made the Fans at the Nuggets' home court cheer loudly.
They loved to see such exciting plays, and Nene fit their taste perfectly.
Jefferson was very frustrated; he didn't expect the opponent's defensive ability to be so strong.
However, it was also partly due to his lack of focus.
So, after the baseline inbound pass, Jefferson became serious.
He posted up Nene, made a series of fakes, and then tried to trick Nene into jumping behind him.
But Nene didn't fall for it, which also frustrated Jefferson a bit.
So he decided to attack forcefully!
Jefferson forcefully turned, attempting to push Nene away, and then even tried to dunk the ball into the hoop!
But Nene still slapped the ball away from his hands this time!
The basketball flew high, and both sides jumped, trying to secure the ball!
But in that instant, Chen Hao erupted from the crowd!
He firmly caught the basketball with both hands and directly put it back into the hoop with a dunk!
This result shocked all the Fans in the arena!
They hadn't even reacted to when Chen Hao had appeared under the basket!
And JR and Billups, who were guarding Chen Hao, had not been defending Chen Hao closely.
Especially JR, he couldn't understand why Chen Hao reacted so quickly.
After completing the dunk, Chen Hao calmly looked at JR and teased, "Hey, did you see that?"
"This is my strength!"
"Remember to guard me tightly later!"
"Otherwise, you might get posterized by me!"
Chen Hao's words frustrated JR, so he decided to respond on offense!
Billups saw JR's intention and passed the ball to him again.
In fact, there's a rule in the NBA: whichever player has a hot hand, the ball will be actively passed to that player.
At this moment, JR had a hot hand, so the ball was naturally passed to him.
However, this time, after JR received the ball, Chen Hao appeared in front of him!
Seeing Chen Hao suddenly appear in front of him, JR was stunned for a moment.
But he quickly became very excited, because he knew he could score in front of Chen Hao!
So, he made a series of pump fakes, trying to trick Chen Hao in front of him into jumping!
However, he completely underestimated Chen Hao's defensive ability!
Chapter 301: Difficult? Then forget it! The Nuggets were overturned by Chen Hao!
As JR continuously faked shots, the basketball in his hand was already exposed to Chen Hao's sight.
Therefore, Chen Hao's hand speed was like a ghost, directly stealing the basketball from JR's hand, then quickly dribbling and rushing to the frontcourt.
By the time JR reacted, Chen Hao was already two body lengths ahead of him, completely out of reach.
Chen Hao easily completed a fast-break dunk, then smiled and shouted to JR:
"Hey, man, your fake move is really too fake!
Next time, don't use it in front of me; I really can't help but laugh!"
These heart-piercing words instantly made JR feel uncomfortable.
However, he thought it was just an accident, and he had simply underestimated him.
So, this time he wanted to regain his presence by challenging Chen Hao.
Thus, JR once again signaled Billups to pass him the ball.
However, as the team's brain, Billups knew JR was already getting emotional, and he couldn't pass the ball to him at this moment.
So, he passed the ball to Anthony.
At this moment, Chen Hao surprisingly appeared in front of Anthony again.
Chen Hao's defensive attitude like this is actually very taboo on the basketball court.
Following the ball is not a smart defensive method.
Moreover, this behavior is also quite amateurish.
However, as Chen Hao's teammates, they had long been accustomed to it.
Because they all knew how strong Chen Hao's individual defensive ability was.
Furthermore, once Chen Hao used this defensive method, it already proved that he was very confident in this defense.
So, they could rest assured and watch the show from the side.
Sure enough, when Anthony saw Chen Hao appear in front of him, he immediately became interested.
He was now full of confidence in himself and also wanted to prove his offensive ability under Chen Hao's defense.
Thus, Anthony performed his most classic triple-threat move!
His speed was very fast; ordinary players would not be able to catch the direction of his next move.
But for Chen Hao, this was not difficult, because in his eyes, Anthony's movements were actually in slow motion.
Although his movement speed was a bit faster than that of ordinary players, in Chen Hao's eyes, it was only 0.75x speed.
Therefore, with such speed, attempting to shoot in front of Chen Hao was simply wishful thinking.
Thus, when Anthony made his triple-threat move for the third time, Chen Hao quickly reached out to steal the ball!
A direct hit!
The basketball in Anthony's hand was directly stolen by Chen Hao!
After successfully stealing the ball, Chen Hao quickly dribbled and rushed to the frontcourt, while Anthony was still in shock and had no time to react!
So, Chen Hao once again took the lead and completed a fast-break dunk!
The Fans on site instantly fell silent; Chen Hao's two defenses were simply too demoralizing!
They couldn't even clearly see how Chen Hao did it, yet he easily completed the steal and scored.
The live commentator even exclaimed loudly:
"Oh my goodness!
How did he do it?
His reaction speed is incredibly fast!
His steal was completed in an instant!
His timing was impeccable; he had no pressure whatsoever!"
As Anthony's teammate, JR was well aware of how strong Anthony's offensive ability was.
After all, the man known as the "offensive kaleidoscope" indeed had a wide variety of offensive moves.
However, even such a versatile offensive player was completely outmatched in front of Chen Hao.
Chen Hao still used the simplest stealing method to easily steal the ball from Anthony; this was simply incredible!
However, JR still believed that Chen Hao was just lucky; he couldn't possibly be so precise with every steal.
Thinking of this, JR felt confident again!
Billups watched his teammate's offense fail twice in a row, and he decided it was his turn this time!
So, under Kenyon Martin's screen, he quickly used the screen to drive to the basket, while his peripheral vision was constantly observing Chen Hao's position.
Billups had dealt with Chen Hao before, and he clearly knew Chen Hao's characteristics.
Therefore, he was always guarding against Chen Hao's help defense.
Once Chen Hao appeared next to him, he would decisively pass the ball to his teammates.
Because at this time, Chen Hao would definitely not be able to cover the perimeter players.
However, this time, Chen Hao did not seem to appear next to him, which made Billups very happy.
He thought he could easily put the ball into the basket this time.
But, just as he finished his fake move and was about to lay the ball in, Chen Hao, who had been on the perimeter, had appeared above his head at some unknown point.
Thus, Billups's layup was directly pinned to the backboard by Chen Hao!
A solid pin block!
Among the Denver Nuggets' five starting players, three had already been successfully defended by Chen Hao once!
At this moment, Nene and Kenyon Martin were both very shocked by Chen Hao's elusive movements; they didn't even know when Chen Hao would appear above their heads.
After Chen Hao completed the pin block on Billups, he directly grabbed the ball and immediately transitioned into a fast break.
This time, Chen Hao chose to directly throw a long pass to A'lian, who was running ahead!
Because A'lian had already sprinted to the frontcourt at the first moment; he knew how terrifying Chen Hao's defensive ability was.
So, when Chen Hao appeared under the basket, A'lian knew he had to change the way he got easy points!
And Chen Hao did not disappoint A'lian, directly throwing the ball to him.
Thus, A'lian easily completed a big-stride dunk!
Watching A'lian complete the fast-break score, Chen Hao looked at JR with a smile and said:
"Hey, do you see that?
Doesn't our team's offensive style make you yearn for it?
You are actually very suitable for our tactics; you are not suitable to survive here.
So, if one day you feel like you want to change the way you play, you can come to our team!
I believe you will not be disappointed!"
Chen Hao actually extended an olive branch to JR at this moment, which made the Denver Nuggetsplayers very unhappy.
Nene even loudly reprimanded Chen Hao, believing that Chen Hao was deliberately messing with their mentality.
Thus, Chen Hao gave Nene a deep look; he knew who to deal with next!
Less than two minutes later, Nene was first hit with a resounding pin block by Chen Hao during an offensive play.
Then, under Nene's defense, Chen Hao directly flew over Nene's head, completing a spectacular poster dunk!
Afterward, Chen Hao just silently looked at Nene and said:
"Do you know?
I hate players who have no ability but still yell and shout the most.
And you are one of them!"
Chapter 302: Crushing Nene's fist with one hand, Kenyon Martin applies to play?
Nene already had a bad temper and was easily provoked by others.
This time, Chen Hao's humiliation completely shattered his composure!
So, when Chen Hao mocked him, he suddenly threw a punch at Chen Hao.
Nene, from Brazil, had also learned some martial arts and was very confident in his combat abilities.
He believed that with this punch, he could directly knock out Chen Hao on the court.
However, just as he thought he would land a punch on Chen Hao's face, Chen Hao easily dodged it.
Chen Hao slightly tilted his head and avoided Nene's full-force punch.
Nene clearly saw the mockery and pity in Chen Hao's eyes, which made him feel even more frustrated.
So, Nene decided to quickly throw a second punch, determined to knock Chen Hao to the ground no matter what, to release all the pent-up frustration in his heart.
But, to Nene's horror, his second punch was also easily dodged by Chen Hao.
Moreover, Chen Hao only slightly tilted his head, his face remaining calm.
This outcome shocked Nene immensely, and when he reacted, his fist had already been directly grabbed by Chen Hao's hand!
"Actually, that's not how you fight; you haven't grasped the essence of fighting at all.
And your punches are too slow; you're full of openings.
In my eyes, you're no different from a three-year-old child.
It's truly disappointing!
Not only can you not beat me in basketball, but you're not even my match in a fight.
If I were you, I would feel incredibly ashamed!"
As Chen Hao spoke, he tightened his grip.
Nene's expression quickly changed from initial shock to terror, and then directly to extreme pain and ferocity.
"Ah!
Damn it, let go!
My fist is going to be crushed by you!"
It's worth noting that as an inside player, Nene's height was definitely greater than Chen Hao's.
Moreover, his hands were much larger than those of ordinary people.
This meant his fists would also be much larger than ordinary people's, so it was impossible for an ordinary person to hold his fist with one hand!
However, in Chen Hao's eyes, Nene's fist was simply too small, and he could easily grasp it with one hand.
Thus, Nene displayed such an expression.
As his screams echoed, the referee and the Nuggets players all rushed over.
Even Kenyon Martin loudly reprimanded Chen Hao:
"Damn it, let go!
This is a basketball court, not a place to fight!
Such behavior will lead to your ejection!"
Kenyon Martin's words made Chen Hao's expression incredibly playful:
"I agree with you; you're right!
However, you might be misunderstanding something now.
Actually, I'm not fighting; I'm just preventing him from continuing to attack me!
I'm sure the referee saw it most clearly, right?"
Chen Hao's hand, still gripping Nene's fist, did not let go as he turned to look at the referee beside him.
Nene felt his fist was about to be crushed; Chen Hao's grip had not loosened, which made him afraid to launch any further attacks on Chen Hao.
Because he was worried that if he attacked Chen Hao again, his fist would be directly crushed to dust by Chen Hao.
"Damn it, referee, tell him to let go; my fist is going to be crushed!"
The referee was quite shocked after hearing Nene's shouts, as he truly hadn't expected Chen Hao to possess such strength.
Chen Hao, on the other hand, looked innocently at the referee and said:
"Hey, referee, I'll listen to you; if you tell me to let go, I'll let go.
However, you need to guarantee that he won't attack me again.
Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to continue restraining his fist."
Hearing Chen Hao's words, the referee could only nod helplessly:
"You let go first, and you also can't continue to attack him!"
Chen Hao was true to his word and instantly released Nene's fist.
And when Nene felt his fist released by Chen Hao, he instantly felt like he had escaped death, and after retracting his right hand, it kept trembling.
Of course, he heard what the referee said; he wasn't a fool, and he already knew how terrifying Chen Hao's strength was.
So, he dared not provoke Chen Hao anymore; Chen Hao was simply a devil.
However, as a teammate, Kenyon Martin believed that Chen Hao's actions should be met with stricter punishment.
In a version with no errors!
"Referee, this guy should be ejected!
His behavior is too malicious!
He's deliberately hurting my teammate!
This kind of behavior is absolutely unacceptable!"
The referee turned to look at Kenyon Martin, his face full of disbelief.
As for Chen Hao, he burst out laughing:
"Hey, Kenyon, if your eyesight isn't good, I suggest you go see an ophthalmologist."
The Boston Celtics players all laughed after hearing Chen Hao's taunts; Chen Hao's trash talk was truly devastating.
And J.R. witnessed all of this with a shocked expression; Chen Hao's actions opened his eyes.
It turned out that you could also stop an opponent's attack in such a way on the court; it was truly cool.
He knew how strong Nene was; that guy was like a beast under the basket.
Yet, even such a beast had no chance to retaliate in front of Chen Hao.
So, J.R. gained a new understanding of Chen Hao, knowing that this guy was not to be trifled with.
The referee ultimately called an unsportsmanlike foul on Nene and warned him not to resort to violence to solve problems again.
Nene could actually have continued to stay on the court, but he indicated that his right hand had a serious problem and voluntarily requested to be substituted.
Because Chen Hao had caused him immense psychological trauma, he really didn't want to face Chen Hao's mockery and humiliation anymore.
George Karl was very dissatisfied with Nene's retreat but could only choose to substitute him.
In fact, Nene wasn't lying; his right hand was indeed experiencing considerable pain, and even clenching his fist had become extremely difficult.
Even if there wasn't a fracture, he believed that his hand bones had suffered a minor hairline fracture.
Therefore, choosing to request a substitution to rest was a wise decision.
Kenyon Martin was very helpless about his teammate Nene's choice and even considered it cowardly behavior.
So, he decided to show his teammates what tough-guy behavior was.
Thus, Kenyon Martin fixed his gaze on Chen Hao.
Chen Hao had to pay the price for this and learn the consequences of provoking a Denver Nuggetsplayer.
So, this time when Chen Hao broke into the Denver Nuggets' paint, Kenyon Martin came up!
He directly used his hands, forcefully shoving Chen Hao, who was airborne, down!
Chen Hao lost his balance in mid-air and fell heavily to the ground in a very exaggerated posture
Chapter 303 After experiencing the feeling of flying, Kenyon Horse has become obedient!
Kenyon Martin's foul was no joke; he genuinely wanted to completely incapacitate Chen Hao.
Especially after seeing Chen Hao's arrogance, Kenyon Martin had already conceived this idea.
In his dictionary, this home court was their territory.
Therefore, he would not allow any player to be more arrogant than him!
Thus, Chen Hao had to suffer his torment!
When Kenyon Martin violently threw Chen Hao to the ground, he even yelled excitedly:
"Hey, welcome to the Denver Plateau!
This is our hospitality!
You're dreaming if you think you can freely ravage our basket!
This is a small warning; don't be so impulsive next time!"
In Kenyon Martin's view, after he threw Chen Hao to the ground this time, Chen Hao would surely develop a serious psychological shadow and wouldn't dare to be so arrogant anymore.
Perhaps, after this fall, Chen Hao might even suffer a severe injury and be carried off the court!
However, just as Kenyon Martin was feeling incredibly pleased with himself, he was shocked to see Chen Hao quickly get up from the ground as if nothing had happened.
Moreover, Chen Hao even dusted off his jersey with a look of disdain and said to Kenyon Martin with a face full of disappointment:
"That's it?
You've disappointed me greatly!"
In reality, the main reason Chen Hao was thrown to the ground by Kenyon Martin was that he jumped too high and hadn't expected Kenyon Martin to be so ruthless.
If it were any other player, they would have already been sent to the emergency room.
So, when Chen Hao was thrown to the ground by Kenyon Martin, he knew that some people were truly difficult to reason with.
Especially players like Kenyon Martin; if you try to reason with him, he will think you are afraid of him.
Since that's the case, the only way to deal with him is to use his own methods.
Coincidentally, Chen Hao was very good at such methods.
Since he wasn't afraid, then make him afraid; it was that simple!
When his teammates saw Chen Hao being thrown to the ground by Kenyon Martin, they also broke out in a cold sweat.
They thought Chen Hao would suffer a serious injury, but they didn't expect him to be completely unharmed.
Upon seeing Chen Hao calmly glance at Kenyon Martin, they instantly realized Chen Hao was enraged.
After all, they were too familiar with Chen Hao's style.
When such a situation occurred, if he could still speak to you calmly, it wasn't because he didn't care, but because he felt he was already speaking to a patient.
Naturally, one shouldn't get emotional when speaking to a patient, as he was already a patient.
Chen Hao's words made Kenyon Martin's face extremely ugly; he hadn't expected Chen Hao to be so resilient, showing no signs of injury whatsoever.
Since he could take a fall so well, then let him fall a few more times!
Kenyon Martin had already decided; he would make Chen Hao realize the consequences of provoking him.
What Kenyon Martin didn't know was that Chen Hao had already set his sights on him.
It was still the Boston Celtics' offense!
Chen Hao held the ball at the top of the arc, signaling his teammates to spread out.
In fact, without Chen Hao's signal, his teammates had already consciously created space.
And Kenyon Martin shouted excitedly at Chen Hao:
"Come on, let me see what you've got!
Since you like falling to the ground, I'll satisfy your wish!"
Chen Hao smiled slightly, dribbled, accelerated, and charged towards Kenyon Martin!
Wide-open, without any fancy moves!
There was only one goal: to cripple this clueless guy in front of him!
Kenyon Martin harbored the same thought; he had to make Chen Hao pay!
The referee hadn't called an flagrant foul on his previous malicious foul, which made him even more arrogant.
Besides, this was his home court; he had nothing to fear!
So, Kenyon Martin appeared directly in front of Chen Hao, waiting for Chen Hao to come closer!
As soon as Chen Hao came close, he would not hesitate to use all his strength to violently pull him down from the air!
Under the gaze of all the Fans, Chen Hao dribbled to Kenyon Martin's front!
A sudden stop, a jump, leaping high!
Kenyon Martin responded similarly!
He also leaped high, swinging both hands fiercely towards Chen Hao's head!
At the same time, Kenyon Martin's knee was not idle.
He aimed at Chen Hao's groin and forcefully thrust his knee forward!
Clearly, he not only wanted to pull Chen Hao down from the air but also wanted Chen Hao to experience the taste of crushed testicles!
In the one-by-one, no-mistake version!
When the Denver Nuggets Fans saw Kenyon Martin's defensive move, they became incredibly excited.
They loved seeing the home team players' tough side, loved seeing them throw the opposing players to the ground.
This feeling of physical collision fascinated them.
Just when everyone thought Chen Hao would fall heavily to the ground, an unexpected event occurred!
Chen Hao actually dodged Kenyon Martin's slapping hands in mid-air and directly collided with him!
As for Kenyon Martin's knee thrust, Chen Hao responded with his own knee!
Knee against knee, whoever was harder won!
The tungsten-titanium alloy knee was naturally superior!
So, the moment their knees collided, Kenyon Martin already let out a scream of pain!
Not only that, Chen Hao's body directly crashed into his chest, sending Kenyon Martin flying like a kite with a broken string!
Kenyon Martin's last thought was that he regretted it!
He regretted it immensely; he finally realized he had kicked an iron plate!
Under the gaze of all the Fans, Kenyon Martin fell heavily to the ground, his face contorted in pain, screaming continuously!
As for Chen Hao himself, he was still flying through the air!
Finally, he even slammed the ball down into the basket with a heavy dunk!
The referee was completely stunned by Chen Hao's brutal dunk; he even forgot to blow his whistle.
It wasn't until Chen Hao landed that the referee's whistle finally came belatedly.
Chen Hao earned a free throw opportunity!
Kenyon Martin's foul was undisputed, but no one expected him to end up like this.
As for the Fans in the arena, when they saw Kenyon Martin being sent flying by Chen Hao, almost all of their faces stiffened!
As for the other Denver Nuggets players, looking at Kenyon Martin lying on the ground groaning in pain, their faces were grim, and a huge shock ran through them.
As for Chen Hao himself, he shrugged innocently at the referee and said:
"Hey, ref, you all saw it; he intentionally fouled me aggressively.
But I was lucky and wasn't thrown to the ground!
I have to say, this guy's body is still a bit weak."
Chen Hao's words made the Denver Nuggets players' faces turn ugly, especially J.R., who had become incredibly wary of Chen Hao.
This guy was truly, as his reputation suggested, very tough!
That was Kenyon Martin; he was very strong physically and was an interior player.
Yet, after intentionally fouling Chen Hao and colliding with him, he was actually sent flying by Chen Hao?
Was he even human?
At this moment, J.R. deeply realized how vast the gap between him and Chen Hao truly was.
Chapter 304 Anthony: JR, go and lock up Chen Hao! JR: Huh?
Watching Kenyon Martin fall heavily to the floor, JR now only felt dread towards Chen Hao, not daring to show any contempt.
The referee's whistle sounded at this moment, naturally calling a defensive foul on Kenyon Martin.
After all, his foul was too obvious; he was clearly targeting Chen Hao.
However, Chen Hao's ability to resist was simply too strong, making it impossible for him to stop Chen Hao, and instead, he suffered the consequences.
At this moment, Chen Hao even forcibly slammed the ball into the basket, and the referee signaled that the basket counted!
This time, George Karl, the Head Coach, was displeased:
"Damn it, that was an offensive foul!
You're just blowing the game wildly!
I protest!
His action has intentionally injured my player!
You should eject him immediately!"
An enraged George Karl even sprayed spit onto the referee's face, which also made the referee very unhappy:
"Hey, if you don't want me to eject you, I suggest you shut up first!
My judgment doesn't need your meddling!"
Although this was the Nuggets' home court, with such an obvious defensive foul, the referee naturally wouldn't show any favoritism.
But George Karl still wanted to continue putting pressure on him?
This was completely disregarding the referee's authority!
So, the referee decisively issued him a warning.
After being warned by the referee, George Karl immediately became compliant. He glared at the referee with a frustrated expression, then turned to signal for a timeout.
Chen Hao's consecutive attacks were all aggressive, which caused the Nuggets' players to feel a great deal of psychological apprehension towards him.
This was not a good thing for the Nuggets, so George Karl needed to call a timeout.
He wanted to restore the players' confidence in the game and even demand a more aggressive response.
After the timeout, George Karl emphasized:
"The opponent has already been shitting and pissing on your heads!
And you're still acting indifferent?
All of you, harden up!
Since he dares to charge our paint, we dare to make him fall!"
If this had been before, George Karl's words might have greatly energized the players.
But this time was different; instead, they felt terrified.
Because after Kenyon Martin was knocked out of bounds by Chen Hao, he broke several ribs.
He had already been carried off the court and would certainly need several months to recover.
As for Nene earlier, he suffered a similarly tragic outcome.
And these were all the results of provoking Chen Hao.
Under these circumstances, George Karl still wanted them to continue fouling Chen Hao aggressively?
Wasn't this asking for their lives?
JR had already made up his mind that when Chen Hao drove, he would definitely stay far away.
As for whether the Head Coach would blame him for this, he couldn't worry about that much.
His body was his own; if he truly ignored everything and committed a malicious foul on Chen Hao, he would very likely follow in Kenyon Martin's footsteps.
Although JR was usually a bit of a loose cannon, that didn't mean he was actually stupid!
On the contrary, he was very smart; he knew how to deal with these superstar players.
If you can't beat them, join them!
He had even already decided that if the Nuggets didn't achieve good results this season, he would find a way to go to the Celtics and cling tightly to Chen Hao's leg!
As the timeout ended, the game continued!
As the team's star player, Anthony still highly agreed with Head Coach George Karl's demands.
If they didn't toughen up at this moment, it would definitely not be a good thing for the Nuggets.
So, at this time, he proactively requested to guard Chen Hao.
Furthermore, he also demanded that his teammates, at appropriate times, decisively double-team, and they must make Chen Hao feel their defensive resolve.
His teammates naturally dared not refuse Anthony's request.
And Billups also stated that he would drive to the basket more often, causing the Celtics' defense to collapse.
This would give the Nuggets more outside shooting opportunities because their group of outside shooters was quite excellent.
Indeed, in this Nuggets' possession, Billups decisively drove to the basket, attempting to draw a double-team.
However, the moment he drove to the basket, Chen Hao's help defense was already in position!
Before he was even ready to pass the ball to a teammate, Chen Hao had already proactively reached in to steal the ball!
Precise steal!
Chen Hao made a steal!
Once Chen Hao made the steal, he quickly dribbled and rushed towards the frontcourt!
Chen Hao's speed was simply too fast!
The Nuggets' players were all sprinting back on defense, but they could only watch helplessly as Chen Hao easily slammed the ball against the backboard!
Then he quickly followed up, slamming the ball into the basket with one hand!
A self-alley-oop on a fast break!
Chen Hao's spectacular dunk instantly silenced the Nuggets' home Fans!
In a version where not a single mistake was made!
After completing this dunk, he also said to Anthony behind him with a look of disappointment:
"Hey, at the Olympic Games, you didn't make any progress.
Now it seems you still haven't made any progress!
This is truly disappointing!"
Chen Hao's words made Anthony's face very grim. He glared fiercely at Chen Hao and said:
"The game isn't over yet; it's still uncertain who will win or lose!"
When Chen Hao heard Anthony's words, he burst out laughing instantly:
"Aren't you saying that a bit insincerely?
In my dictionary, as soon as the jump ball starts, the game has actually already entered garbage time!
Isn't that the characteristic of your original Dream Team?
It's just that now our team has become the NBA's Dream Team!
You'll soon experience the true value of my words!"
Chen Hao's words were simply too arrogant, and all the Nuggets' players were very displeased!
But as teammates, the Celtics' players all laughed out loud:
"Well said!
That's right, after the jump ball, the game has already entered garbage time!
We are the league's Dream Team!"
At this moment, Jefferson was full of morale, and he also wanted to show off on this court!
Seeing the Celtics being so arrogant, the Nuggets' players became extremely angry, so they decided to carry out their coach's demands.
However, only when they truly carried out their coach's demands did they realize how strong Chen Hao's impact really was.
After half a quarter, two more Nuggets' players were carried off!
All were severe injuries caused by Chen Hao's charges.
Now, only Anthony and Billups remained uninjured.
Of course, there was also JR.
But now JR was truly full of apprehension towards Chen Hao; he wouldn't actively seek death.
However, just as JR was preparing to continue slacking off, Anthony shouted at him:
"Hey, JR, you go lock him down later!"
JR pointed at himself with a shocked expression:
"Huh? Me?"
Chapter 305: Defeat JR and arrange one-stop service for Chen Hao after the game!
Although JR had always been confident in his defense, when he saw Chen Hao's performance today, he completely sobered up.
It turned out that in this league, Chen Hao was the strongest man.
Whether it was offense or defense, he was in a league of his own.
If the strongest NBA player in the 90s was Michael Jordan, then the strongest NBA player of this era was none other than Chen Hao.
Although this was only his second season, his strength had already completely dominated the NBA.
As long as he wanted to, there was nothing he couldn't do.
Even a strong team like the Denver Nuggets was now just a team for Chen Hao to toy with.
So, in this situation, George Karl telling JR to lock down Chen Hao—wasn't that just serving Chen Haoon a platter?
However, he couldn't directly contradict the Head Coach, so he quietly said:
"Okay, don't worry, Coach, I will definitely give it my all!"
JR knew that ability was one thing, but attitude was the most important.
And his Head Coach, George Karl, also needed his clear attitude; as for whether he could lock down Chen Hao, that was truly a matter of ability.
Seeing JR so confident, George Karl was very satisfied:
"Very good, I am very satisfied with your attitude.
Don't worry, go ahead and make your moves boldly.
As for fouls, you don't need to worry, I won't blame you.
Also, if he tries to dunk over you, I want you to intentionally foul him.
As for whether he gets injured because of it, that's not something you need to consider.
Do you understand what I mean?"
George Karl had made his meaning very clear, and JR was not a fool; he naturally knew what the Head Coach meant.
If it had been at the beginning of the game, JR might still have been full of confidence in his defense.
But now he had completely given up on this unrealistic idea, because his two teammates had already set an example for him.
If he really listened to the Head Coach, he might be the third Denver Nuggets player to be carried off the court.
So, JR naturally knew what he should do.
As the timeout ended, the game continued!
Originally, Chen Hao didn't have too many thoughts about this game, because he wasn't a player who liked to humiliate others.
If the opponent gave him enough respect, he wouldn't mind relaxing a little.
But now it seemed the opponent didn't have that awareness.
First, they let Nene play dirty defense on him, and then they let Kenyon Martin try to injure him.
If Chen Hao hadn't been physically strong, he might have already been carried off the court.
Therefore, for such a malicious team, Chen Hao absolutely could not let them end this game easily.
So, next, it was time for them to experience the fear of being dominated!
The Denver Nuggets were on offense first!
At this moment, the burden of offense fell on Anthony; he knew he had to step up and score for the team.
So, he received the ball at the top of the arc, signaling his teammates to spread out.
Because he noticed that Chen Hao wasn't guarding him, which gave him a lot of confidence.
Anthony himself was known as an offensive kaleidoscope, so he naturally had all sorts of scoring methods.
Therefore, at this moment, receiving the ball at the top of the arc, he continuously made pump fakes, trying to get the defender in front of him to jump.
Sure enough, the opponent fell for it!
After his center of gravity shifted, Anthony seized the opportunity and quickly dribbled towards the basket!
During his drive, Anthony even observed Chen Hao's position, and only after seeing him standing in the right corner did he finally completely relax.
So, Anthony directly attacked the basket, challenging Jefferson, intending to score over him.
This act of challenging and scoring over the opponent's main interior player would give his teammates great confidence.
And Anthony did just that!
As he jumped up against Jefferson, he first initiated contact, pushing Jefferson away, and then chose to lay the ball in with an aerial scoop shot!
Anthony was very strong, and after confronting Jefferson, his movements showed no deformation.
This was also an important skill for his survival in the NBA.
So, under the gaze of the Fans, Anthony completed the scoop layup while holding off Jefferson.
Just as the basketball was about to hit the backboard and fall into the basket, a figure suddenly appeared behind Jefferson!
Then, this figure directly snatched the ball with one hand!
After completing the one-handed block, he immediately pushed the fast break upon landing!
Anthony had originally intended to let out a roar upon landing, but now he stared blankly at the opponent who was already dribbling on a fast break.
This person was Chen Hao, who had been in the right corner; he had actually rotated over to help defend at this moment?
Was he even human?
And upon seeing Chen Hao dribbling on a fast break, JR could only reluctantly follow.
The more JR followed, the more he felt apprehensive, because he noticed Chen Hao's speed was getting faster and faster.
He simply couldn't catch up to Chen Hao; his opponent's speed was truly terrifying!
So, by the time JR arrived outside the three-point line, Chen Hao had already completed an aerial windmill dunk!
After completing the dunk, Chen Hao even turned his head to JR behind him and shouted:
"Do you see?
If you were my teammate, you could definitely complete the same dunk!"
This time, JR didn't speak; he inwardly agreed with Chen Hao's point of view.
After all, who wouldn't want to be teammates with such a strong player?
That would truly be an easy win!
Looking at the current Denver Nuggets team, although the roster was already strong enough, they were simply no match for Chen Hao.
Anthony, known as an offensive kaleidoscope, was ruthlessly blocked by Chen Hao at the last moment; this was simply a great humiliation.
The key was that Chen Hao seemed to have completed this task effortlessly.
This directly refreshed JR's worldview; he finally completely understood Chen Hao's power.
Sending him to guard Chen Hao was like sending him to be served on a platter!
So, for the rest of the time, JR completely became Chen Hao's background.
Although JR knew he couldn't stop Chen Hao, he still gave it his all.
It was just that the more he gave his all, the more powerful Chen Hao's strength appeared.
Therefore, the entire second half completely became Chen Hao's personal show.
Chen Hao even completed a powerful one-handed tomahawk dunk over JR, creating an explosive scene.
However, for JR, being posterized by Chen Hao didn't seem to be a shameful thing; he even spread his hands to his teammates with a helpless look, explaining:
"You saw it, I really tried my best!"
George Karl was also very helpless seeing JR's defense so porous, and ultimately could only substitute him out early.
And before leaving the court, JR even proactively found Chen Hao and said to him:
"Hey, buddy, after the game, I'll come find you!
I want to ask you for some advice; I'll arrange something tonight!"
