Chapter Twenty-Six: The Fierce Battle
The Timberwolves request a timeout.
Whitman frowned, it was not easy to do that, Harris's breakthrough was too sharp, and no one expected that he would be the sharpest knife of the Mavericks at the beginning of the game, not the star Nowitzki.
The Mavericks' change of formation caught the Timberwolves off guard, and Whitman sent Gossman to play small forward after thinking about it, and instructed Zheng to defend Harris alone. Because the Mavericks' point guard is Terry's height of only 1.88 meters, and Telfair's height of 1.83 meters is not too much of a loss, so Terfer is still dominant when attacking, and Zheng Ke is allowed to defend Harris when defending.
The timeout ends and the game continues.
Harris was surprised to find that the Timberwolves had changed their lineup, the little man just now was gone, and now he was replaced by a big man with yellow skin, looking at this height, he should be a player on the front line.
Harris certainly won't be anyone with Joe, in fact, the rookie's performance has gotten too much attention, and he is the only player to make it to the Top 10 rookie list from a second-round pick this year.
Now Zheng Ke has been baptized by so many games, and he no longer has the nervousness and anxiety at the beginning, he is as good as a stream, and trash talk has become his regular weapon.
Just against Harris, Zheng Ke immediately blurted out a trash talk: "In the next game, I will prevent you from getting in!" ”
Harris didn't expect this rookie to be so arrogant, and he dared to provoke him when he came up, didn't he see his brave performance just now? Harris naturally couldn't let a rookie ride on his head, and he immediately replied: "I promise you will be killed by me suddenly!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Harris stepped out with his right foot like lightning, to force Zheng Ke.
Zheng Ke had already prevented him from suddenly sneaking up, and quickly moved in small steps, blocking Harris, and at the same time stretched out two long arms to interfere with Harris's sight.
Harris found that his first step to the next step had failed, and after a quick crotch drop, he returned the ball to his left hand and prepared to pass it out first.
Zheng Ke saw that Harris had stopped, and he hurriedly bullied him and pressed Harris with his liliang, which was obviously higher than Harris.
Harris didn't expect Zheng Ke, a rookie, to play cards so unconventionally, he just observed his teammates running, and was surrounded by Zheng Ke like a hen protecting a chick without checking for a while. He didn't dare to move anymore, turned his back to Zheng Ke, and stopped the basketball with both hands.
"Look!" Barkley saw this scene and smiled proudly: "Our defensive spearhead China Zheng has defended the Mavericks' fast knife!" ”
Smith was secretly ashamed of Barkley's discipline next to him, thinking that when they first explained Zheng Ke's game, Barkley was very optimistic about Zheng Ke, and it was only a long time before he changed his opinion without discipline and without any position!
On the court, Zheng Ke still conscientiously clinged to Harris, Harris passed the ball to Terry, who came to pick up the ball, and Terry took two steps with his left hand and chose a three-point jumper.
The basketball hit the iron, and the rebound was picked up by Gossman, who entered the inside to play soy sauce.
Aggro!
Gosman grabbed the ball with one hand and threw it to the front court in a standard discus-throwing position. Everyone was thundered by Gossman's posture, and by his exaggerated long pass.
Who is in the front court?
Zheng Ke was running in the frontcourt, and Zheng Ke didn't wait for the rebound to be grabbed by the Timberwolves players before rushing forward, and he sneaked forward as soon as he saw Terry throw the ball.
Gossman was in a close relationship with Zheng, who received Gossman's long pass from inside the free-throw line, and Harris, who was closest to him, was three meters away and completed a one-handed smash without pressure.
The Timberwolves played a long pass, a fast break and a violent dunk, and the morale of the whole team was improved all of a sudden.
Switching offense and defense, Harris didn't dare to break through casually anymore, he played tactical gestures, and the Mavericks players hurriedly ran in turn. Nowitzki screened Terry off the ball near the free-throw line, and Terry got the ball at the three-point line after running back, but Telfer was small and nimble, and he easily bypassed Nowitzki's cover and followed Terry from beyond the three-point line. Terry was about to throw, but seeing that there were no good opportunities, and he had just thrown one, he quickly "sensibly" handed the ball to Nowitzki, who was already in a position near the baseline. The Mavericks' offensive time was approaching, and Nowitzki had no choice but to shoot the ball against Jefferson's defense.
The ball was a little less powerful, and the direction was a little skewed, hitting the front of the basket and flying straight towards Zheng Ke. Zheng Ke was lucky to pick up the bouncing ball.
Without having time to think about it, he used his sucky strength to dribble the ball forward, and the Mavericks had no players at the top of the arc, and Harris was the only one who followed Zheng Ke.
Harris wanted to break the ball from Zheng, but Zheng's dribbling was not bad, especially since he had an arm that flicked the ball to the side that could protect it.
Zheng Ke wanted to squeeze Zheng Ke so that he couldn't rush up, but he didn't expect that although Zheng Ke looked thin, Liliang was not small, and Harris's physique was even smaller than this big guy who had already run up and looked menacing, so we could see Zheng Ke running all the way and rushing to the basket at an unabated speed.
Drip~~
The Mavericks asked for a timeout.
"The Timberwolves played two fast breaks in a row, and the attackers on both fast breaks were Chinese Zheng, who was previously considered likely to be the top defensive player in the NBA in the future." Barkley explained.
Smith was very dissatisfied with Barkley's overly biased commentary, and he took Barkley's words and said: "Although the Timberwolves seized two opportunities to fight back, the initiative of the game is still in the hands of the Mavericks. ”
He paused and continued: "Today, the Mavericks' three-point has not opened, Nowitzki, Josh Howard, Terry's three-point shot has not been fired, and the Timberwolves will not really be tested until the Mavericks' three-point fire is fired." ”
Zheng Ke himself is still quite satisfied with his performance just now, but he knows that this is just an accident, the Mavericks will definitely make arrangements and be vigilant, he can't have a chance to break fast every time, and he can't succeed every time.
After the timeout, the Mavericks really played more cautiously.
Zheng Ke feels that after each attack of the Mavericks, everyone will subconsciously look at where they are. Maybe he was wrong, but every time he was the first to run to the frontcourt, the Mavericks followed at least three people, and the Mavericks more than doubled their defense.
The game ended in a stalemate, with the Mavericks leading by just two points at 26-24 at the end of the first quarter.
