Extraordinary Genius

Chapter 1232 – Brother Ki’s way of winning

“Brother Ki, how come I feel Shaq is not playing to his full potential today?” Feng Yu asked curiously.

Even if Bateer is strong, Shaq shouldn’t be exhausted after playing for 20 minutes.

Kirilenko smiled. “Feng, this is what I suggested to my team’s manager. The Lakers’ players cannot control themselves in LA. That’s why when they arrived yesterday, I arranged some special programs for them, especially Shaq.”

Feng Yu’s eyes almost popped out. Damn! Is this an off-court strategy?

“Don’t look at me this way. This is the NBA tradition, and who can they blame if they cannot control themselves? Their legs wobble during the match is because they are weak!”

“I had heard fans harassing the opposing team players before the match in the past. But I have never thought of this strategy.” Feng Yu replied.

“The fans harassing them is their problem. I think someone had leaked their hotel locations, and we have nothing to do with those screaming fans there!”

Feng Yu looks at Kirilenko speechlessly.

“Don’t tell me that you had bribed the referee too?”

“How is that possible? Didn’t you notice both teams have about the same number of free throws? But the basket’s tightness can be adjusted. When the ball hits the basket on one side, it will bounce off further, making it easier to get the rebound. The other side is looser, and the rebound will be nearer to the basket. The guard needs to move closer. Don’t tell me you don’t know this tactic?”

Feng Yu shook his head. “I don’t know!”

Damn! Other than bribing the referees, there are so many tricks. In Feng Yu’s past life, he had heard Jordan had encountered such treatments before. However, he still becomes the best player in NBA, and no one can stop him during a one-on-one.

“These are all the tactics?”

“Of course not. I will save other tactics for the next match. Hahaha!”

Feng Yu felt sorry for the Lakers.

…….

During the second match, Feng Yu noticed the Lakers’ players looking tired. Didn’t they learn their lesson from the last match?

Feng Yu asked Kirilenko and almost spit out his drink.

“You are saying their hotel’s fire alarm went off last night?”

“That’s right. Someone had smoked in the room, and the bed caught fire accidentally. The fire brigade arrived late. A crowd, including the reporters, had formed outside of the hotel and delayed the firemen. The fire was only put out after midnight, and the hotel staff went room to room to remind them not to smoke. The staff discovered one person smoking a joint in the room, and the Police came and searched all the hotel rooms. This lasted until early this morning.”

Kirilenko shrugged his shoulders as if all these had nothing to do with him.

Feng Yu showed a thumbs-up. “Brother Ki, I am impressed. I think your team can win this match easily.”

The Nets won the match by 16 points.

Before the Lakers left the arena, Phil Jackson announced they will trash the Nets in LA.

When the Nets arrived at LA, they separated their players and arranged for them to stay in Feng Yu and Kirilenko’s mansions. Their mansions are located in a well-off neighborhood, and no one can create trouble there.

The people living there can’t be bothered to create problems. Many of the Lakers’ fans are prepared to harass the Nets, but they cannot enter the neighborhood. So, the Nets players had a good night’s rest.

Kirilenko told his players personally. Train hard for the matches these few days, and he will treat everyone to Vegas for a vacation after they won!

The Nets’ players were motivated and put in their best during training.

The Lakers saw they cannot do anything to the Nets off-courts and can only use dirty tricks on the courts. But this is the Wind and Rain Arena, and Feng Yu’s men are guarding the courts. They told the arena’s staff that the Lakers should win against the Nets without using these dirty tricks!

The arena staff also felt the Lakers is a stronger team, and they have the best players, Shaq and Kobe!

In the end, the Lakers’ plan to use dirty tricks failed.

But to Feng Yu’s surprise, the Lakers won the match by 4 points. Shaq had played his best and even scored 15 out of 18 free throws!

The Lakers had gotten back at the Nets, and the arena staff also believe they can win against the Nets cleanly.

But in the next match, Shaq’s free throws returned to his usual standards. Out of 18 free throws, he only scored 8, and the Nets won by 7 points.

The final score is now 3:1, and the experts and commentators started switching sides. All of them think the Nets will win this year.

Feng Yu felt the Nets will not use despicable tricks this time. But Kirilenko did not let the Lakers off. This time, it’s not a fire alarm or police searches. The arena’s air-condition broke down and blew out hot air in the visiting team’s changing room.

Before the match started, the Lakers’ players are sweating, and they don’t even want to rest in the changing room during halftime.

Bateer got a pass from Kidd in the third quarter and managed to push Shaq off and scored with a dunk.

After this dunk, the Lakers could not turn the match around. In the fourth quarter, they gave up, and the Nets had the final laugh.

When the match ended, Kirilenko jumped up and hugged Feng Yu. “Feng, did you see it?! My team is now the Champions! We have finally gotten the championships!”

Feng Yu quickly tapped Kirilenko’s arm. Damn! You are too strong and also suffocated me!

Kirilenko quickly let go of Feng Yu but continued to shout beside him. He seems to be shouting something like Paul! Dance! Hula Dance!

Feng Yu saw Kirilenko is shouting towards the camera and understood that he is talking to Paul Allen. Their bet this time is to dance? Paul Allen is going to dance?!

Bam!

Paul Allen threw a glass at a large HD plasma TV and broke it.

What are the Lakers doing!? How can they lose to the Nets? How can Shaq lose to a non-drafted Chinese player? He was even knocked down by him! How can he claim himself to be the best Center in NBA?!

When the Nets’ players are celebrating, Kirilenko told them to carry on with their celebrations today. He will join them in Vegas two days later. He has something important to attend to now.

Kirilenko pulled Feng Yu along. “Feng, let’s go and watch a performance with me!”
