Fuck!

"What?"

"He can block it with such a distance!?"

Wall looked surprised.

"Why not block it?"

Facing Mike Breen's equally puzzled expression, Van Gundy smiled, "This time, Wall's sudden stop and step-back jump shot, if he were a guard, lacking height, he wouldn't be able to block it. If he were a center, despite having height, lacking speed would prevent him from keeping up and blocking it. However, facing someone with both speed and height, someone with super talent like Carlos, it can be blocked. The same move, 'CP3' Paul was miserably blocked by it too. He's a rookie, even if he's the NBA Draft's first overall pick, he can't do it!"

"Yes..."

Just nodding in agreement, Mike Breen, who knew the situation well, nodded.

On the court...

Out-of-bounds ball...

It was still Wizards' possession, but with only 6.4 seconds left on the shot clock, Wall once again received the ball. Faced with the vigilant defense of the tall Carlos, he took a very forced shot.

"Bang!"

No...

With Frye protecting the rebound, he passed it to Curry, who advanced, and then handed it to Carlos at the top of the arc, signaling him to pull away to one side while giving him a meaningful look.

It was a look that told him to teach Wall a lesson!

"Step!"

Wall actively stepped forward, using his extraordinary speed and explosive physical qualities to defend against larger players, especially in the perimeter area.

If the offense wasn't enough...

Make up for it with defense!

Wall was ready to confront Carlos head-on.

Carlos looked at Wall, who was setting up in a defensive stance with great seriousness, raised the basketball as if he was going to pass it, and then very casually took a three-point shot.

"Whoosh!"

A slightly tilting three-pointer left Wall stunned and unable to jump to block it.

"Swoosh!"

After a beautiful rainbow arc, the basketball hit nothing but net.

"What?"

"A three-pointer taken so casually can still go in?!"

"Is this a three-pointer or a pass?"

Carlos's casual three-pointer left the fans in a daze.

In the commentary booth, Van Gundy chuckled, "Relying on absolute height, raising the basketball and shooting a three-pointer over Wall's head, Carlos is being a bit unreasonable here."

"Hehe!"

Mike Breen laughed, "That's true, but only Carlos can attack Wall like this when facing him. Ordinary centers without a three-point shooting percentage wouldn't be able to do it."

"That's true."

On the court...

"Cut!"

Wall became even more displeased. This kind of shooting in your face, with you unable to do anything about it, was uncomfortable for anyone, especially after it went in.

However...

After all, he was the NBA Draft's first overall pick, and his recent form was hot. He quickly calmed down.

"Just a little taller, and I'll score in front of you, just like... scoring in front of Durant last night."

Thinking of this...

Wall completely calmed down, and his eyes burst with even stronger determination.

On the left arc again, he found Carlos, smoothly dribbled to find the rhythm, and read the defense. When he saw Carlos's center of gravity shift slightly to the right...

"Swoosh!"

He initiated the acceleration...

Rushing out to the left, but... it was just a feint. When Carlos's center of gravity shifted to the left, he made a sudden and significant change of direction to the front.

"Whoosh!"

Directly shaking off Carlos, he accelerated with the ball in his right hand, smoothly passing him.

"Hmph!"

A smirk appeared at the corner of Wall's mouth. After getting past Carlos, as long as he completed the layup, it would be a perfect counterattack.

However...

Just as he was about to lay the ball up and end this offensive move, he suddenly found that there was nothing in his hands that should have been holding the ball.

And on the court, there was already a burst of exclamations.

"Wow! It happened, Carlos stole the ball 'without looking'!"

"This steal is really cool."

"A center can steal the ball like this, it's really incredible!"

"Hmm..."

After being bypassed and without turning around, Carlos, seizing the opportunity under the 'Eagle Spear,' accurately stole the ball from Wall's hands, leaving everyone in confusion.

"Swoosh!"

Accelerating on the counterattack, a coast-to-coast sprint, no defensive players in the frontcourt.

"Step!"

"Boom!"

Soaring in the air, a 360-degree spin + backward dunk, a stylish slam dunk that elicited cheers.

"Darn it, when did this happen?"

Wall's face turned pitch black.

One moment was a gorgeous breakthrough layup, the next was a tragic steal, plus a counterattack and a powerful dunk. One was heaven, the other was earth, the difference was too great.

"Fuck!"

Wall, infuriated, burst out with foul language, his eyes burning with rage.

"Bang bang bang!"

Finding Carlos once again, Wall accelerated on the left, instantly engaging in a physical confrontation with Carlos. His body was explosive, and even facing Carlos, he didn't back down.

"Whoosh!"

In the midst of the confrontation, Wall turned around, displacing himself half a body's width from Carlos, and accelerated to the right, shaking off Carlos's defense.

But the next second...

Carlos caught up.

Both headed straight for the basket, with Wall reaching it first. He abruptly stopped, intending to lay the ball off the backboard. At this moment, Carlos, closely following behind, focused his gaze.

"Step!"

Bending his knees and jumping up, he flew from behind, ready to deliver a spectacular block to Wall.

However... Wall's shot was just a feint, and he didn't actually release the ball. Carlos, fooled by the move, passed through Wall and flew directly towards the basket support.

"Wow, Wall shook off Carlos!"

"This time he really shook him off."

The fans exclaimed.

"Rookie!"

Wall, who had stopped abruptly under the basket, sneered. Just as Carlos completely passed him, flying towards the basket support, he gently pushed the ball and attempted a bank shot.

"This shot is in!"

"Wall is finally going to score against Carlos!"

However...

Just as everyone thought Wall had this shot in the bag, the ball flew straight towards the basket support. Carlos, with his back to Wall, turned his head slightly to the side, glancing behind him. He extended his left hand without looking and swatted the ball away.

"Snap!"

Perfectly...

Just as Wall was about to release the shot, Carlos's hand, without looking, smacked the basketball right as Wall was in the process of shaking him off, sending the ball flying.

"What?!"

The sudden appearance of the big hand not only blocked him but also left Wall completely bewildered.

"Boom!"

Meanwhile, the arena erupted in deafening cheers.

In the commentary booth...

Van Gundy widened his eyes, utterly surprised, "A backhand block after being shaken off? What kind of move is this? How did he do that?"
