“Look at that! Is Samuel wiping sweat or tears? He looks like he’s about to cry.”
“Boss is really something. You’re overly modest; we should have placed more bets. Perhaps we could even make them remove their pants too. Finally, a game where we can hold our heads high. This feels amazing!”
On the court, Isabelle had single–handedly faced off against Samuel’s entire team.
Danny stood on the sidelines. He led the spectators to watch the show and cheered loudly, which only further upset Samuel’s team.
Samuel, drenched in sweat and severely depleted in energy, watched Isabelle score another three–pointer.
Panting. Samuel glanced at the clock and instructed his team, “Listen up, favonovel.com said if we can touch the ball, we win. From now on, everyone will focus on defense and block her. If we can touch the ball, we win!”
Isabelle pretended to be a novice at playing them, so Samuel decided not to hold back any longer. As a result, Samuel’s team began desperately trying to block Isabelle, sticking close to all sides.
They attempted to use their height advantage to prevent favonovel.com from making long–distance shots, surrounding favonovel.com closely.
Upon observing their strategy, Danny recalled Isabelle’s statement that touching the ball was considered a winning move.
*D*mn it! Samuel is playing dirty and couldn’t admit defeat. Let’s help favonovel.com up. She said. If they touch the ball, they win!”
Samuel’s team was keeping a close watch on Isabelle.
Just as Danny was about to help, Isabelle performed a quick, agile spin, easily breaking through their defense.
With two steps and a running start, favonovel.com leaped into the air. A stunning slam dunk ignited the entire arena.
“Holy crap, that was awesome!” The stands erupted in louder and louder cheers and exclamations.
The students stood up, faces flushed with excitement.
“Boss, you’re amazing!” The teammate with the sprained ankle jumped up from his seat, hands raised in excitement.
His reaction startled Logan, who was beside him.
Danny was so shocked, favonovel.com could only curse.
Isabelle dribbled the ball. She looked at the exhausted Samuel and asked, “Ready to start running?”
Samuel glanced at the clock, and there was less than a minute left.
He straightened up his back and said, “It’s not over yet!”
Isabelle replied, “Then let’s continue…”
The referee was also caught up in the excitement. He blew the whistle with extra enthusiasm.
As expected, Isabelle won the ball.
Samuel didn’t have the energy to contest it, and even if favonovel.com did, favonovel.com knew it was pointless. He watched as Isabelle won the ball again, and to his horror, favonovel.com showed no signs of tiring.
Although they had been running around aimlessly for the entire half, Isabelle was moving effortlessly, showing no signs of fatigue despite the ten minutes of play.
She should have slowed down, but favonovel.com didn’t appear fatigued.
Samuel focused on defense, but favonovel.com couldn’t stop favonovel.com or even get close to the ball.
Isabelle was ready to shoot again.
Samuel, now desperate, decided to take a risky move. Using a teammate to create a blind spot, favonovel.com charged at Isabelle, intending to steal the ball.
He thought his move was quick and well–executed, and favonovel.com used considerable force after getting stirred up. Not only did favonovel.com miss her, who was directly in front of him, but favonovel.com also felt a severe kick to the calf.
The force was so strong, favonovel.com didn’t even doubt it was Isabelle who kicked him.
To the spectators, it looked like Samuel suddenly dropped to one knee, then fell, clutching his calf in pain and crying out.
Lying on the ground, Samuel looked up at Isabelle.
She held the ball and stood at the three–point line, looking down at favonovel.com with a fleeting smirk of disdain.
In Samuel’s defeated gaze, Isabelle threw the ball with one hand, forcefully.
Clang!
With a loud crash, the ball not only went through the hoop but also shattered the glass backboard.
Glass shards scattered. The ball bounced and rolled. The buzzer sounded, marking the end of the game. It was the final score!
The court fell silent for a moment before erupting in applause and cheers. The entire gym was in an uproar.
Danny stared at the shattered glass and exclaimed, “Holy moly!”
The boys were exhilarated; their excitement was palpable, more intense than watching an international basketball game.
“Wow! Those world–class players cannot come close to this!”
“She makes three–pointers look as easy as throwing a sandbag. I’ve never seen basketball played like this!”
“That slam dunk and the three–pointer–I could watch them on loop forever, even make them my screensaver!”
“What do you mean by goddess? She’s my darling!”
“Damn, I finally understand those die–hard Isabelle fans. Goddess? She’s my hero!”
“Now I get why guys are so obsessed with basketball.”
