Chapter 390: Timberwolves VS Spurs (3)

Who is Danny Green?

Although Zheng Ke had carefully pondered the personnel up and down the Spurs before the game, he was inevitably a little stunned when he really saw such an unfamiliar face.

Could it be that this is the secret weapon of the "bobo" vic?

Zheng Ke's first thought was a conspiracy theory with a black belly. He thought that maybe this Danny Green was a special presence set up by "Bobo" Vic to deal with him. Or is this the rhythm of "Bobo" Vic to abandon the pawn and protect the coach, and use Green to come up and implement the shark slashing tactic against Jordan Jr., who is not good at free throws?

Zheng Ke never thought that this was a desperate move by "Bobo" Vic, just hoping for a miracle.

Spurs lineup George Hill, Ginobili, Danny Green, Duncan and Blair. The Timberwolves are on the court, with Lowry, Marcus Thornton, Zheng Ke, Ty Gibson and Jordan Jr.

Danny Green had two mustaches above his lips, and the whole person looked a little lewd. But the defensive attitude was very positive, and he came up close to Zheng Ke, just like his predecessor Jefferson did.

Zheng Ke was determined to give him some color to see, and when he came up, he leaned on his back and reached out with one hand to ask for the ball.

Danny Green was stuck there by Zheng Ke, his face was red from the exertion, and the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed, but Zheng Ke didn't move at all as if he was nothing.

Lowry's drop shot was very accurate, and he immediately distributed the ball to Zheng Ke, who stepped on the three-point line.

After Zheng Ke took the ball, he turned around, grabbed the basketball with both hands and placed it underneath, almost touching the ground. Then Zheng Ke looked forward, observing the situation on the field, his feet naturally spread out, and his body bent down, like a cheetah ready to attack. It's full of power.

The Spurs did not wrap up the clamp at the first time, Zheng Ke took the ball without any temptation, took a step directly to the right, and broke through diagonally with his body.

"So fast!"

Watching the game on the sidelines, I couldn't feel Zheng Ke's speed, and after really coming up to defend himself. Danny Green immediately felt the strength of the league's No. 1 man. The burst was a big step, fast-paced, and astonishingly fast. Immediately, he lost his defensive position because of his late reaction, and the whole person was on the same level as Zheng Ke.

Zheng Ke crossed the ground too easily, and Danny Green was stunned like a piece of wood.

Off the field, "Bobo" Vic slapped his head, thinking to himself Is he crazy? How could Danny Green, who hadn't played much in a season, play. I was really carried away.

Two steps later, Zheng Ke made a pull-up jump shot and easily hit two points.

"Oh my God, "Bobo" Vic would be replaced by such a young man? Oh, who is this? He actually dared to defend Zheng Ke? Barkley screamed exaggeratedly, questioning "Bobo" Vic's substitution schedule.

Kenny Smith was also a little dissatisfied at this time. Although he played the role of Spurs, he also expressed his incomprehension of the substitution of "Bobo" Vic: "Is this a joke? I'm not a head coach, but I know how important it is to defend Zheng Ke, so is it appropriate to give it to a young man who is only 24 years old? ”

However, when everyone said they couldn't understand it, Danny Green scored!

A breakaway shot from George Hill's pick-and-roll. Danny Green got a shot from beyond the three-point line, and his defender Marcus Thorton was well defended, but the guy's shot was a little different, with a high shot, speed, and a sense of jumping forward.

Zheng Ke took the initiative to defend Ginobili in the fourth quarter, and he believed that after the Frenchman went off the court, the core of the Spurs' outside line was the Argentine, and as the leader of the team, he should take the initiative to take responsibility at this time. the Argentines.

Thorton was a little depressed, while Danny Green, who scored the goal, yelled excitedly.

"Bobo" Vic almost didn't jump out of the bench, and when Danny Green shot at the top of the arc just now, "Bobo" Vic's heart jumped to his throat. Thankfully, Danny Green didn't disappoint him. His previous instructions also worked, and Danny Green's decision to make a decisive move when given a chance was indeed the right one.

"Luck, right?"

Zheng Ke frowned, he didn't want to switch guards with Thorton, after all, he still felt that Ginobili was the biggest threat at the moment, and he also had to take into account Thorton's feelings.

Danny Green did pause for a while, and Thorton's defense was equally aggressive, and the two were entangled, leaving Danny Green with little chance to shoot.

On the other hand, Zheng Ke is addicted to playing Green alone, and when he meets a rookie-like player, he always wants to take advantage of it.

So although Danny Green has a dazzling feeling, the gap narrowed on the score is not obvious, and the Timberwolves have been leading by about 7 points and 8 points.

It wasn't until three minutes later, in the eighth minute, that Danny Green made another shot from beyond the three-point line.

Ginobili forced a breakthrough, and under Zheng Ke's pressure, Ginobili's attack line deviated greatly, and then he gave it to Duncan in the high position. The round-looking Blair provided off-ball cover for Danny Green and he ran into the bottom corner to create an open space. Duncan made an advance pass that went straight into the hands of Danny Green.

The ball was in his hands, and Danny Green felt empty in his mind, all the boos around him disappeared, and only a lone basket in the air was left in his field of vision.

His goal is to get the ball into the damn hoop.

Bend your knees and use your feet and calves in unison. He held the basketball in a textbook shooting position, and when he was at the highest point, he waved his wrist lightly and plucked the basketball with his fingertips.

The trajectory of the basketball in the air was slightly flat, but it smashed straight into the inner edge of the hoop.

"Huh!"

What everyone heard through the speaker was the crisp sound of entering the network, thinking that it was another hollow ball.

95-90, the Timberwolves only led by 5 points!

Zheng Ke's eyes narrowed, looking at Danny Green, who shot a three-pointer for the second time in the fourth quarter, thoughtfully.

Thibodeau was taken aback by Danny Green's second three-pointer, and estimated that the time was almost up, and he asked for a timeout like a referee.

"How can you just give the Spurs a chance to shoot a three-pointer?" Instead of mentioning Danny Green, Siber criticized the overall defense of the Timberwolves players on the court. Then he emphasized the Timberwolves' tactical thinking: "Everyone remember, our defense is man-to-man, the Spurs can break through, they can attack the interior, but we have to do a good job of defending on the outside. This Spurs team has a lot of three-point shooters, don't underestimate any of them. Suppress their outside firepower and we'll be able to win easily. ”

After the timeout, Billups, Love replaced the player on the field.

As soon as Lefu came up, he made a very high-quality cover for Zheng Ke, and under his cover, Zheng Ke easily passed Danny Green, and then in front of Ginobili, who was making up the defense, he played a pull ball and turned, grabbed the basketball with one hand, and hit a low-handed layup for two points.

97 to 90.

Parker dribbled the ball to the front court, and Ginobili came out to catch it. Ginobili took a step with his right hand to control the ball, and after the crotch he switched to the left hand to control the ball, breaking through from Zheng Ke's left side, which is also his regular breakthrough method and route, Zheng Ke took a step across, with excellent physical fitness, easily followed.

Ginobili gave it to Duncan in the low post, and Duncan sat on the Lefou.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

Two strong and powerful impacts, although Lefu is a white man, but this low anti-human ability is still quite good, Duncan failed to reach half a point.

Duncan turned around and took the ball to a jumper on Love's head, scoring two points after hitting the board at 45 degrees.

There is no way, Duncan's height and arm span are not comparable to Lefou, the two belong to the same floor flow, and Duncan's shooting is a bit similar to a straight-arm jumper. Lefu stretched out his hand, and basically could only be in a state of dry staring. And playing the board at 45 degrees, Duncan is ridiculously accurate.

The two teams played in the fourth quarter, and suddenly they both entered the best state, the execution of tactics, the level of cooperation of the players rose sharply, and the game became more and more exciting.

The Timberwolves' offense has not made much adjustment, Zheng Ke is the main controller of the game, and the ball is basically in his hands.

The Spurs have a bag on him from time to time, Zheng Ke will basically be in a state of bag after taking two steps after getting the ball, and he will not hold on to the ball, and when he finds an open opportunity for his teammates, he will pass the ball as soon as possible. This allowed Zheng's assist count to rise rapidly in the final quarter, breaking double digits in the blink of an eye.

At 3:49, the Timberwolves led by six points at 104-98.

The Spurs requested a timeout.

At this time, Thibodeau did not dare to put Jordan Jr. on the court, if the Spurs used the shark slashing tactic at this time, he really couldn't guarantee the outcome of this game, so it was Pekovic who replaced Jordan Jr. on the court.

Strange to say, Pekovic is the same as Jordan Jr., basically a player who has no offensive ability when he is out of the three-second zone, and his mid-range shooting is even more fantastic. But Pekovic's free throws are very accurate, and after entering the NBA, they can basically maintain about 75 percent. This free-throw shooting percentage is already quite good among NBA interior players, and the average "American-made" center only has a free-throw shooting rate of just over 60 percent.

Even someone like Jordan Jr. who doesn't shoot three free throws is a big deal.

"Bobo" Vic made a few strokes on the tactical board, marking the Spurs' tactical line. He explained each tactical line with the players around him, and divided the tasks and responsibilities of each player on the field.

Then he thought about it, looked at Jefferson, who was almost a quarter off the court, gritted his teeth, and simply let Danny Green play.

"Danny [Green] we need your three-pointers, and you did a great job on 3-of-4 shooting in the fourth quarter, but I want you to keep this show going!" (To be continued.)
