Facing the provocation from New York No.3, Roger merely responded with a calm smile, choosing not to retort like he usually would.
That smile perhaps reminded Roger of his younger self. The boy who once looked up to him, now stood opposite him, eager to challenge authority, just like Roger did in his youth.
Time sometimes feels like a cycle.
"Good momentum, Dwyane, but I think you should block one of my shots before you shout at me."
After saying this, the Warriors made a baseline pass, and Roger took the shot under the double pressure of Hinrich and Wade. This time, the basketball steadily sank, breaking the scoring drought in this game.
Roger swung his arm, pointed at Wade: "Defend me yourself before you show off!"
This shot seemed to unlock Roger's arsenal, and after a brief lull, the story quickly reached its first climax.
