Chapter 141: Xinke MVP (Big Chapter Asks for a Monthly Pass)
Kevin Garnett glared at him, he couldn't tolerate such a provocation. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I just want to win. ”
Zhou Zheng held his head high, and he walked up to Johnson: "I am willing to take responsibility for the game." ”
Zhou Zheng's words caused controversy again...... In the eyes of veteran players such as Kevin Garnett, Zhou Zheng is obviously not qualified enough to be responsible for the victory or defeat of the game.
However, Kobe Bryant stepped up and said, "The game is on, I'm willing to get off the court, Stephen, you go." ”
The player, known for his personal heroism and selfishness, made a decision that shocked everyone at this moment.
Drip!
The whistle blew.
Johnson was too late to make a trade-off, and he hurriedly said, "Come on, guys, leave the victory in Texas." ”
During the entire pause, he did not do any tactical guidance, and even the substitutions were achieved under Kobe Bryant's voluntary abdication.
He didn't want to get into the battle between these All-Star players.
As for winning or losing, he doesn't really care that much.
However, Zhou is caring.
Zhou was on the way to the court, and whispered to Stephen Nash for a while, and after Nash nodded repeatedly, he walked to Yao Shu and Duncan, the two giants, and explained something to them. Both nodded cooperatively...... Tracy was left to dry.
This made Maddie feel very uncomfortable, and he felt isolated.
However, at this time, the Eastern team's defensive focus is on Maddy...... Sanders is adamant that the hosts, Maddy, will be the one to carry out the final attack.
LeBron James thinks Zhou Zheng is also very threatening.
Drip!
When the referee blew the whistle, Zhou Zheng stood out of bounds, and he was in charge of serving.
When he served, Stephen Nash quickly ran out to catch it, and Maddy pulled it out, and he also wanted to catch the ball to execute the final attack.
Two outside attackers pulled the line to the east.
However, at this moment, Zhou Zheng bluffed to the left, took Billups' defense away, and passed directly to the three-point line...... LeBron James hurried in pursuit, but Tim Duncan had been preparing for a long time, and he jumped quickly...... Just when everyone thought he would catch the basketball and kill it, he actually put the basketball in the restricted area...... It's a crisp volleyball move.
When the basketball flew to the penalty area, the Eastern team's defensive attention was all on Yao Shu, and Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace quickly closed in and tried to pull Yao Shu away...... Even making a foul won't allow him to catch the ball and shoot the basketball.
And Yao Shu didn't mean to fight for the ball, he actually made a move to get stuck in the position.
It's incredible.
Soon, the doubts were answered.
A lightning-like figure slammed into the penalty area, then jumped high, and he reached out and lightly tapped the basketball that was falling in a parabolic line, and the basketball immediately changed direction...... Swish!
The basketball drills into the net.
There are only 1.7 seconds left.
It's very easy to score.
It's so simple that everyone thinks it's just an ordinary goal, not a life-or-death game.
After the scene was quiet for a while, the DJ at the scene shouted Zhou Zheng's name loudly with a sharp voice...... "tigerrrr!!!"
The shout finally woke up the fans at the Toyota Center.
They made a powerful noise.
Drip!
Sanders asked for a timeout.
Although there are less than two seconds left, it is still necessary to 'do your best', and as for whether you can fight against the lore, you will 'obey the fate of heaven'.
LeBron James kept his head looking at the big screen above him during the timeout.
He couldn't believe that all this happened so easily and calmly, Zhou Zheng actually entered no man's land under the Pistons' defensive system, smashed Huanglong with such a relaxed attitude, and put the basketball into the basket...... It looks like stuffing a coin into a vending machine and dropping out a bottle of Gatorade...... It's as simple as that.
From the big screen above his head, he saw the whole process of the lore...... At the time, he was running with Tracy Maddy and Dwyanwade was following Stephen Nash. At this time, Zhou Zheng used a feint pass to deceive Chauncey's defense, and then passed the blue ball to Tim Duncan on the free throw line, and the moment Zhou Zheng passed the basketball, he had already launched a full-speed sprint, and Billups could not keep up with his fast pace. Meanwhile, he was tracking the basketball, but was eventually pushed to the penalty area by Duncan. As Zhou was speeding away from his side, he tried to pursue, but Duncan made a solid cover. At this moment, the Wallace brothers in the penalty area tightly entangled Yao Shu, Yao Shu consciously led the defense into the depths of the penalty area, and also made a good posture of stuck. In this situation, Zhou Zheng jumped up and easily scored in the sky.
"It's a genius tactic. Earl Johnson praised loudly from the commentary stand: "There was no ball handling during the whole process, and the basketball was always flying in the sky. The Eastern team's defense had no way to start, and they ended up watching the basketball fall into their own hoop. ”
"Only the All-Star Game can see such a wonderful fit. Charles Barkley also praised sincerely: "Whether it is Stephen Nash's running, or Tim Duncan's cover and pass, and Yao Shu's card position, all of them are top level, of course, Tiger is the biggest dominant, this ball starts from him and ends by him." And you can't replicate it, you won't find four players with such good tactical literacy. ”
"Hey, you seem to have forgotten Tracy. Kenny Smith picked.
"Oh. Right. Charles Barkley hastened to add: "Tracy is also important.
However, he could not say what was 'important'.
While the commentary table was babbling on how clever this 'bland' lore was, Zhou Zheng returned to the bench.
He put on his coat directly.
His attitude is obvious, and now, I won't play.
Kevin Garnett's face was ugly, he had originally thought about the scene after Zhou Zheng's plan was unsuccessful, and he felt that he should teach this rookie who 'doesn't know how to respect his seniors' a lesson.
But now, it's as if I've been taught a lesson. Seeing Zhou Zheng put on his clothes and sit on the bench with an indifferent face, he felt indescribably uncomfortable.
At this time, Johnson called his name, and he was joined by Marion, Maddie, Parker, and Duncan.
In the final 1.7 seconds, Johnson decided to step up his defense.
You can't let your opponent stab a deadly dagger into your chest at the last moment, right?
Drip!
The whistle blew.
The game restarted and Rasheed Wallace fed the ball to LeBron James, who shot quickly but ...... Bang!
In the end, he still didn't pull off a miracle.
Western forces defended their home stadium 136-135.
When the game ended, the streamers flew on the scene, and the enthusiasm of the fans was burned again.
They started shouting Tracy's name.
They were building momentum for Maddie to win MVP.
"Good play. Tim Duncan was the first to extend his hand to Zhou Zheng after he got off the court: "You have to stick to your attitude." ”
Duncan and Garnett's jersey numbers are exactly the same, but their attitudes towards Zhou Zheng are very different...... Garnett felt that Zhou's attitude was problematic, but Tim Duncan thought there was nothing wrong.
"Thank you, I will. Zhou Zheng hugged Duncan, and he also liked this big man of Mu Ne...... He's always been unremarkable, but he's always everywhere and doing the right thing.
Then, he walked over to Avril.
For him, his work is done, and the next thing is personal time.
"Hey, Tiger, you stink. When Avril saw Zhou Zheng coming, she immediately said in disgust: "You didn't even have a dunk." I always can't wait to give the basketball to others. You've got to be selfish. ”
Zhou Zheng scratched his head and smiled bitterly, Lavigne's basketball still hasn't grown.
"This guy keeps stressing that he says he's your fan. Avril introduced Jeremy Renner to Zhou Zheng.
Reina immediately stood up excitedly and hugged Zhou Zheng, and whispered in Zhou Zheng's ear: "Your sister really doesn't understand basketball at all." ”
Zhou Zheng nodded approvingly, and gave him a thumbs up.
"Let's go to dinner together. I know there's a top-notch restaurant in Houston. Jeremy Renner sent out an invitation: "You can't miss the Texas steak that has a unique and delicious flavor." ”
"Okay. Zhou Zheng smiled and agreed, at this time, the lights had dimmed, and he didn't see Scarlett's nervous, embarrassed and restrained expression.
Guided by a beam of chasing light, David Stern walked to the center of the court with a smile on his face, and he immediately read the brightest star of the night.
This is highly anticipated.
However, there doesn't seem to be much suspense.
"I couldn't have found a better fit than Tracy. Earl Johnson had an urge to uncover the mystery.
"Tim Duncan also scored 18 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists tonight, Kobe Bryant also got 25 points and 7 assists, and Tiger... He had 11 points, 12 assists and five rebounds, and he single-handedly directed the final comeback and was the killer maker!" Charles Barkley disagreed with Earl Johnson's assertive judgment, believing that there was still a suspense.
At this point, David Stern finally began to speak.
He summed up the game, praised the players, thanked the fans, thanked Houston, and finally, he finally read the big game: "...... The MVP winner of the Houston 2006 All-Star Game was..."
"Zhou... Positive ............"
When David Stern pronounced the name, the audience was silent for a moment, and the fans looked at each other.
Then, there were some boos, but the cheers were slightly louder.
Zhou Zheng was also stunned.
Is it me?
"Is that you?" said Avril in an exaggerated tone, "How is that possible? ”
But soon, she gave Zhou Zheng a warm hug: "Congratulations, tiger." ”
Then he smug: "Look, I'm your lucky star, and when I show up on the court, you always have good luck." ”
Zhou Zheng smiled and nodded: "Yes, you are my lucky star." ”
By this time, the camera had already been pushed.
Jeremy Renner also took the initiative to come over and give Zhou Zheng a hug, and he also pulled Scarlett Johansson.
Under the gaze of the camera, Scarlett also showed a slightly reluctant smile, and she shook hands with Zhou Zheng: "Congratulations." ”
Although Zhou Zheng was embarrassed, he always kept smiling, and then walked onto the court.
"Are you sure it's just me as an MVP?" was the first thing Zhou asked David Stern before shaking hands.
David Stern nodded, "Yes, kid. ”
Then, he took the initiative to go over and hug Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng was at a loss.
He had already guessed the look on Tracymadie's face at the moment, which was the honor he had always wanted to earn, and he stressed it before the game, and promised that the first thing he would do after receiving the prize money was to invite everyone to be happy.
Zhou Zheng didn't want to be loved, but now his name has been engraved on the trophy. He was also the first All-Star Game winner to take home the MVP trophy in his first rookie season, and he was also the first Grand Slam winner to have a trophy in three consecutive days in an All-Star Game.
"I'm not a showy person and this trophy is a bit too heavy for me. ”
Zhou Zheng's first testimonial was this.
"I knew that if Mr. Stern had just pronounced another name, he would have won a full house, and I would have clapped his hands on the back. ”
"But now, I'm the MVP and my name is engraved on the trophy, and I think I must have something to offer. ”
"I'm going to be proud of that, I'm going to use it as motivation, and please give me a little time. ”
"I'm going to light that light in the hearts of every fan in the stadium. ”
"Thank you. ”
As he spoke, Zhou Zheng bowed and stepped down.
He was honest enough to face the boos of the Houston fans. The speech is neither humble nor arrogant, humble and powerful.
"The league is killing week. ”
Earl Johnson commented on Zhou's MVP: "Although he performed very well, he was remarkable, and he played a vital role in the last minute. However, it didn't take into account the feelings of the other players, especially Tracy. It is foreseeable that Tracy fans, Houston fans, Kobe Bryant and even Tim Duncan fans will question and attack him strongly. After all, he's just a rookie. ”
Earl Johnson said bitterly.
He wanted to say everything from his heart, but this was a public platform after all, and he didn't want to make too many personal questions about the alliance's practices.
"David Stern should have at least picked a tie MVP, and if Tracy also gets the trophy, then there's no problem at all. However, let Tiger alone get this trophy. I don't think it's a reward, it's a fire to burn him. Charles Barkley was much more frank: "This is a typical kill!"
"The league can't wait to build a promising star, and the All-Star Game Grand Slam is sure to take Zhou's popularity to the next level, which is very much in line with David Stern's policy of going global. Kenny Smith said against his will.
At the same time, reporters who had been in ambush on the side of the stadium for a long time had surrounded Zhou Zheng with long guns and short cannons.
They immediately launched a siege against the new technology MVP with all kinds of problems.
