Chapter 218 - Isabella's Moves

The game continued 

Our final match was against this tall baller and his older daughter that had Isabella in her clamps. After we scored the first points it gave us a boost in morale as we checked up the ball.

I passed it to Isabella who decided to try to get a bucket in after I had made one, but her defender was causing her much problems as she was much stronger, taller and older than her with more experience, so her defense had Isabella on clamps.

But Isabella did not let that sway her as she crossed over the girl from left to right faking to the left before fastly crossing over to the right to get herself free for a quick shot which gave us another point as it was a mid-range shot.

The girl was so surprised by Isabella's quick release as she had recovered quickly but she was too late as the ball was released too fast.

She was also surprised that Isabella was able to make that shot as normally nobody would be able to or would get lucky but it seemed perfect as it was all net.

Isabella checked up the ball this time and passed it over to me. I asked her if she wanted the ball back but she shook her head saying she needed to catch her breath.

I laughed at her and thought if only she had my unlimited stamina too she would be quite the monster.

My defender stepped up to me ready to guard me as if his life depended on it. I smiled at him before breaking into a full speed once again dribbling around.

He got annoyed by my strategy to tire him down but he didn't back down as he started pacing himself. I slowed down a little bit and then quickly picked up my speed throwing him off as I leaned to the side taking a shot sideways.

This shocked everybody there as the ball went through the net causing the crowd to go crazy. They never saw anything like that but to see it in this little tournament was beyond them as they cheered for me. The guy defending me was also surprised but at this point he knew what I was capable of.

He wasn't going to pull his punches anymore, I caught him by surprise and I knew that I wouldn't be able to trick him like that again now we're up by 3 points while they had zero points which was starting to put a lot of pressure on them.

I checked up the ball and passed it to Isabella, Isabella was now ready to go to work again as she squatted down low dribbling the ball between her legs in a fast pace as she went from slow to fast until she bounced the ball up high around the girl and the girl thought that she was still dribbling with the ball in her hands but then Isabella ran full speed around her defender catching the ball on the other side of the girl and quickly laying it up.

The whole crowd started laughing as that was an AND1 move Isabella had just pulled.

I was shocked by the trickery and wondered if she had been watching some AND1 moves and wondered where she had learned that from, but I didn't think too much as the game continued checking it up. I gave it to Isabella and she wanted to try another move.

She walked up to her defender slowly dribbling the ball, the girl also squatted a little bit to play better defense as she didn't want to be taken for a ride this time around. I was just standing around watching Isabella dribble in a casual fashion as she had spun around and within that spin she winked at me.

I smiled as my defender didn't have his eyes on me, I quickly went around him and made my way to the basket Isabella spun one more time but this time releasing the ball as it speedily went towards me I caught it and dunked it hard.

I laughed as I went to high five her and said good pass and she replied by saying good cut, now we were up by five points, we had to play till 11 points and the other team had not scored a single point, they started to feel a little depressed and thought this match was becoming impossible.

Isabella checked the ball and passed it to me. The guy had left me a little bit of space so I did a quick step back and shot it from the three-point line before he was able to block it.

And now we were up by seven points, four more points left and we would win the game. Isabella still hadn't recovered so I decided to continue scoring and hope that she'll be okay to take the last one.

In the next possession I had received the ball, dribbled around my back pretending to take the shot causing my defender to jump up in the air as I went in between his legs ducking down low while still dribbling the ball and shot a floater before he could recover.

This game was getting boring as it wasn't challenging at all, the next point I took was a two pointer as I broke the man's ankles getting free for the shot and I let Isabella take the last shot as I set a pick for her to free the girl from her grasp. 

Isabella took the shot from the 3-point line which surprised me as I knew that she was a little bit too young and didn't have the upper strength but I guess she was just like me when I was younger, I could only take a few shots from the 3-point line due to my limited strength.

We ended the game as the crowd flooded on the court to cheer us on and to congratulate us on victories. The other contestants were sour but they recognized our skills and didn't have any objections.
