"Spurs No. 24, offensive foul!"

The referee's decision was like a bolt from the blue, making the Spurs fans shout no. They clasped their heads in their hands and watched in disbelief as the referee made such a decision.

"Hey, man, I didn't foul!"

Jefferson tried to reason with the referee, but there was nothing to do. It is impossible to change the penalty for a foul, and the explanation can only make him feel better. Unfortunately, the bigger problem is that he has already committed six fouls and was forced to leave the field.

Zheng Ke stepped onto the free-throw line.

Huge boos poured in, some expressing dissatisfaction to the referee and others putting pressure on Zheng Ke.

Zheng Ke is the fastest improving free-throw player in NBA history, and just like his points per game, his free-throw shooting percentage is also a step a year. During this year's regular season, Zheng Ke shot 91.9 percent from the free-throw line, the second-highest among all NBA players, behind only Nash, who shot 93 percent from the free-throw line.

Such a free-throw shooting percentage gave Zheng Ke a lot of confidence, and after he stood at the free throw line, he gently raised his arm in front of all kinds of funny Spurs fans behind the basketball hoop.

Two free throws and two hits!

The Timberwolves once again took a two-point lead at 99-97.

At this point, the game was only 37.6 seconds left, and Popovich immediately made a timeout gesture to the referee to request the Spurs with the last long timeout.

In this life-or-death moment, the fans at the AT Center were sweating nervously, and they couldn't sit still anymore. They all stood up, clasped their hands together, and waited for the Spurs to come back again.

"It's a tough time. Zheng Ke scored 4 points in a row at the last moment. It allowed the Timberwolves to regain the initiative on the court. If the Spurs want to score the last goal, then they must take into account Zheng Ke's performance, he has been superb. The host of the local TV station in the Holy City was quite worried, and he wanted to become an assistant coach next to Popovich to add a plot to the Spurs.

It was a time of fighting spirit, and Whitman figured out Popovich's thinking, thinking that at this time, the Spurs should not arrange an unreliable three-point strategy, but would choose a safe layup or mid-range. So his tactical drawing board. It's all about the Spurs' mid-range and interior play, hoping that the Timberwolves players will shrink their defensive formation.

Dozens of seconds later, the players of both teams returned to their feet.

"Huh?"

Zheng Ke observed the Spurs' lineup. It turned out that the Spurs did not replace Bogans. George Hill, Parker, Ginobili, Duncan. Bonner. The Spurs turned out to be replaced by a relatively short lineup on the outside. This made Zheng Ke feel a little uneasy, is it really as Whitman said, will the Spurs play an inside tactic?

Zheng Ke was suspicious, and subconsciously thought that the Spurs would definitely set up a three-point shot.

The ball was sent and Parker began to hold the ball on the outside.

He dribbled from 45 degrees to the top of the three-point line arc while Ginobili and George Hill began to intersperse their runs, with the Argentine passing Duncan and running near the bottom corner. George Hill and Parker came up to meet each other and exchanged possession. Hill dribbled back to where he had originally served.

It was a series of complicated runs, not only the audience was dazzled, but the Timberwolves on the court had huge problems with man-marking, and Bonner, who had done the cover, actually withdrew from the three-point line and was the first to form an open player.

"Watch out for Bonner!"

Without Zheng Ke's reminder, Birdman Anderson had already rushed to the scene, and before Bonner could make a move, he was surrounded by his circumference, making him unable to make a move.

Bonner didn't stop the ball, and with a flick of his hands, the basketball went to the bottom corner.

In the bottom corner turned out to be Parker!

When did Parker pass? Parker's appearance was too unexpected, when he took the basketball, the field of vision was wide open, and there was no one to defend five meters.

Parker took the basketball, his heels still not off the ground, lightly cushioned on the ground, like an elegant dancer.

Parker's three-point shooting is terrible, shooting only 20 percent from three-point range last year, last year and this year, and his career three-point shooting percentage so far is just barely 30 percent. Giving the illusion that these two French sports cars don't seem to be very capable of long-range bombing.

In fact, Parker's three-point shooting in the two corner areas is still very accurate, just like many people prefer to shoot from the bottom corner, Parker has always been very confident in this place.

He proudly raised his hand and made a textbook shot.

The ball flew out of Parker's fingertips, and he was delighted. It's a wonderful feeling, as a player, as soon as the ball is there, you can actually feel whether you can score or not, Parker feels like you have to score!

However, not long after the ball took off, a yellow-skinned arm opened a slender and powerful hand, and a little bit, extremely accurately, knocked down the basketball!

"Smack!"

Just as Nadal drew a tennis ball with a tennis racket, the basketball in the air instantly shifted its trajectory, whistling out of the baseline and into the hands of the spectators in the back three rows.

"Hehe, I've seen through it better than I can."

Zheng Ke showed his first smile of the game so far, grinning and tilting his head, like a monster full of evil energy, looking at the "meal on the plate" as far as his eyes could see.

Parker's face was blue and white, and looking at Zheng Ke's arrogant appearance, he panicked aggrievedly.

This was a resounding block, Zheng Ke fell from the sky, and directly diagonally ran over and fanned Parker's shot, and the audience let out a sigh in unison, scolding Zheng Ke for being shameless. As for where Shameless is, it doesn't matter at all, the important thing is that Spurs fans hate him to death.

The Timberwolves bench was completely in trouble, with Jordan Jr., the leader of the towel squad, being the first to stand up and wave the towel, while the others did unbelievable movements and were completely conquered by Zheng Ke's speed, bounce and strength.

The Spurs restarted the serve with only 20.3 seconds left in the back of the game, while the Spurs had only 6.7 seconds left on offense. The situation is extremely unfavorable for Spurs. But alas, the Spurs have run out of timeouts, and even Popovich, who has run out of options, is somewhat powerless at this time. You can only gesture to the players and give remote commands.

Duncan served from the bottom corner, and the Timberwolves followed very closely.

He threw the ball directly beyond the three-point line, and Ginobili took the basketball. Too late to organize, Ginobili directly picked up the basketball, took a figure-eight step, and ran crookedly towards the left side of Afflaro.

Affralo defended very well. Don't push people, don't jump, and put pressure on Ginobili slightly. Hands are always on his left and right.

4 seconds, 3 seconds.

Ginobili made a direct and large step-back jumper, accompanied by the inertia of the jump, and his movements looked a little drifting.

It's a chopped off technique. Even Ginobili, who is known for his weirdness, is forced to feel very uncomfortable.

Forced shooting movements. Offset lane trajectory.

The basketball brushed the net at the hem of the hoop, and there was a burst of net flowers, as if it had been thrown.

Many Spurs fans immediately raised their hands and celebrated loudly. It turned out that the people around him didn't move, but looked at them with a bad eye, only to find that he actually made an oolong, and he was immediately embarrassed. He retracted his raised hands in a wrench.

And the basketball that didn't stick to the three sticks was held in Anderson's arms, and Duncan made a decision immediately. Stepped forward and deliberately fouled.

Anderson was sent to the free-throw line.

This is probably one of the most thrilling moments of Birdman's career, and the pressure is extraordinary. Behind the basket rack, there are also unscrupulous fans who make all kinds of trouble, making Anderson chaotic.

Anderson missed two free throws.

The rebound was taken by Duncan, and with 14 seconds to play, without a timeout, Parker burst into the frontcourt.

It was a bizarre game, with the Spurs struggling to run out of timeouts and the Timberwolves desperately trying to hold on to that slim lead.

Parker and Billups tangle along the way.

Parker hooked Duncan, who reached for the ball, and Duncan finally received a pass from his teammate at the end of the day. But his position is not very good, the corner is too far from the basket, and the angle is not suitable for the board.

10 seconds.

9 seconds.

Duncan held the ball with his back and arched twice, knocked out a little space, turned left with the ball, used his left foot as the axis, leaned back slightly, grabbed the ball with his right hand as if throwing, and smashed the ball straight to the basket.

"Bang!"

Or not!

Spurs fans are going crazy, the Spurs have been stamped in the frame at the last moment, and the troika has failed to recover the score for the Spurs no matter who makes a shot.

The basketball bounced high, and Zheng Ke was the first to rush over and jump into the air.

In this case, the Spurs no longer had anyone to compete with him, so they could only watch Zheng Ke, with his long arms wrapped, put the ball in his hands with a "snap", and then landed.

McDyce stepped forward and deliberately fouled.

With only 3 seconds left on the clock, the Spurs theoretically still have a chance of winning. The problem is that Zheng Ke has to miss two free throws, or only one of the two free throws.

Seeing Zheng Ke's free throw, the Spurs fans in front of the TV pinched a cold sweat.

Zheng Ke is also under a lot of pressure. It's not like Anderson, no one blames him for missing free throws, because he's a role player and he doesn't make good free throws. If Zheng Ke can't score, people will put it on his head with terms such as "dropping the chain at a critical moment" and "unable to withstand pressure".

So Zheng Ke is much more stressed than Anderson.

Of course, he was also much more accurate than Anderson's free throws.

Walking to the free throw line is like walking on the guillotine. At this moment, the spur has stretched his neck and put himself on the guillotine, the ghost head knife is already in Zheng Ke's hand, and whether he can cut it down depends on his own ability.

In the first penalty, Zheng Ke slapped the ball, took a light breath, raised his hand, and plucked the ball.

Hit!

The Devil's Head Knife was already hanging over the spur's hair.

In the second penalty, Zheng Ke pulled his left arm guard up and took the basketball passed by the referee. He tapped it twice, and there was only one basket not far away.

Fingertips are lightly removed and wrists are pressed down.

Return!

This time, the ghost head knife cut off the head of the Spurs, completely ruining the Spurs' hope of winning this game (to be continued......
