Chapter 58

Ding!

As the referee blew the whistle, the game resumed.

Yang Mo sat on the bench, and the Heat's starting lineup for the second half was Magloire, Haslem, Michael Beasley, Dwyane Wade, and Mario Chalmers. The Nets, on the other hand, finally replaced Nahiru with Lopez, who had been completely dominated by Yang Mo.

At the start of the game, the Nets actually smartened up and actively attempted to attack the inside, constantly passing the ball to Lopez and Yi Jianlian. These two really stepped up, scoring one after another. Meanwhile, the Heat's newly entered players, Haslem, Beasley, and Magloire, completely failed to find their rhythm, missing shot after shot.

Soon, the score gap narrowed to ten points.

A game that had lost its suspense suddenly became exciting again. With nearly one and a half quarters left, a ten-point gap wasn't much.

Lopez, who had scored six consecutive points, felt quite good about himself and kept provoking Yang Mo on the bench: "Kid, come on, let me teach you a lesson."

Ding!

Spoelstra requested a substitution, and Yang Mo came on, replacing Magloire.

Finally, the highly anticipated matchup between Yang Mo and Lopez was about to happen. Although the two had clashed before, they hadn't been in the same position.

1.94 meters vs. 2.16 meters.

This was supposed to be a no-brainer, and indeed, everyone thought Yang Mo would be completely dominated by Lopez. But now, no one could confidently guarantee that Lopez would win, given how insane Yang Mo had been in the first half.

When Yang Mo walked up to Lopez, the fans immediately started cheering, shouting: "Lopez, take down the Chinese guy! Lopez, take down the Chinese guy!"

The Nets fans' chants were loud and unified.

At the same time, the ratings for the various TV stations broadcasting the game soared. Finally... finally... the much-anticipated showdown was about to begin.

One was determined to dominate Lopez, and the other claimed he wouldn't be dominated.

The clash between the spear and the shield officially began.

"Do you want to guess how I'll deal with you next?" Yang Mo smiled faintly, calmly positioning himself against Lopez.

Although Yang Mo was joking, his strength was not something Lopez could match. Lopez couldn't stop Yang Mo from positioning himself, as Yang Mo's strength was simply too abnormal.

"If you dare to take me one-on-one, I'll definitely give you a block," Lopez said through gritted teeth.

"Then I'll do as you wish," Yang Mo smiled faintly, suddenly reaching out and shouting to Chalmers, "Bro, pass me the ball, I'll show you a dunk."

Chalmers, upon hearing this, instinctively glanced at the team leader, Dwyane Wade. Wade nodded, and he quickly passed the ball.

Yang Mo received the ball, and Lopez immediately became tense, increasing his strength to resist Yang Mo's body.

Yang Mo, however, didn't feel it at all. After all, how could an elephant feel the force of an ant stepping on it? Even if the ant used all its strength, the elephant might not feel a single itch.

Yang Mo received the ball and slightly adjusted his stance... Bang! He suddenly slapped the ball, and his body shot backward like a bullet. Immediately, Lopez was directly hit, and due to Yang Mo's force concentrated on Lopez's waist and abdomen, his feet left the ground.

He looked very embarrassed. Despite Lopez's height and build, he looked more like a sloth bear hanging on Yang Mo's back, completely harmless.

Bang!

Yang Mo slammed the ball again, and Lopez was once again hit and bounced back. This time, he felt his internal organs shift, and his blood almost boiled, nearly spitting out blood.

F**k, are you playing basketball or committing murder?

Lopez thought to himself, feeling very wronged. What could he do? He was so much taller than Yang Mo. When Yang Mo exerted force, it could only target his waist and abdomen. In fact, Yang Mo had been quite considerate; if he had moved a few centimeters lower, Lopez would have had to go to China to seek the treasures of the Eastern Master.

As Lopez felt wronged... Bang!

Yang Mo slammed the ball again, and Lopez quickly learned his lesson, stepping aside. He thought he had avoided the danger, but Yang Mo was smarter. After slapping the ball, he turned around and leaped up... Boom!

The basketball was slammed into the hoop... Smack!

The ball, which had penetrated the hoop, hit Lopez's face, who was peeking under the basket... Bang! Immediately, Lopez's nose was broken, and blood gushed out.

Seeing this, the fans were stunned, and fans around the world were stunned.

They thought this matchup would be intense, but... it ended so simply and brutally. In less than twenty seconds, Lopez was completely dominated, and he had to leave the game.

Ding!

The referee, seeing Lopez covered in blood, quickly stopped the game and called the Nets' medical staff to check on him.

The Nets' medical staff hurriedly ran up to stop Lopez's bleeding. After stopping the bleeding, they quickly took him down for further examination. After a while, they walked directly toward the players' tunnel.

Lopez's tall figure disappeared from the screen, and the highly anticipated matchup ended.

Yang Mo scored a KO, and Lopez angrily gave up a point.

"Uh... it seems the Nets' medical staff have been on the court more than Lopez today," ESPN's host, Mike Breen, said helplessly to the camera.

"So, did Yang win this matchup?" Mark Jackson asked, also confused.

"Of course, whether in terms of data or direct confrontation, Yang completely dominated Lopez," Jeff Van Gundy said confidently.

Jeff Van Gundy felt that Yang Mo had won the matchup, but the Nets fans didn't agree. After Lopez left the game, they finally couldn't hold back and started cursing like women: "Go back, Chinese guy!" "Thug!" "Murderer!" "Despicable Chinese guy!" "..."

The curses never stopped. Eventually, Spoelstra couldn't take it anymore. As an Asian with yellow skin, he quickly substituted Yang Mo off the court. For him, the game had no suspense, and he didn't want Yang Mo to stay on the court and be cursed, lest he get caught in the crossfire.
