Chapter 161: Small Climax
Whitman frowned, he didn't expect this team that had recently been called internal and external troubles by the media to have this kind of attacking power now.
Kirilenko wasn't in the Jazz's starting lineup, perhaps because of tactical necessity or because he offended the iron-blooded coach Sloan, but what is certain was that the starter who replaced him, Ronnie Brewer, did very well, and apart from his terrible three-point shot, Brewer did everything the Russian could do, if not better.
The first quarter passed quickly, and it was over in the blink of an eye.
The two teams were tied at 23, Zheng Kehan got 6 points and 3 assists without much play, and he even wanted to suggest to Whitman to keep him on the court, of course, he just thought about it, this normal rotation is very necessary.
Coming up from the bench, the Timberwolves' lineup is Channing Free, Kevin Love, Corey Brewer, McMiller and Lowry.
The Jazz are led by Kirilenko, plus Kelle Korver, Costa Koufus, Millsap and veteran Blevine Knight.
The benches of the two teams have their own merits, and it is difficult to simply evaluate who is superior and who is inferior, but what is certain is that the Timberwolves' lineup has a particularly large offensive range, with the wonderful center of Channingfree, the Timberwolves often appear on the court when five players have three-point shooting ability, and sometimes they can shoot huge lethality through simple breakthrough points.
The two teams of substitutes went back and forth and fought each other for a while.
Youdao is the most intense game is the game with the smallest score difference, and the substitutes have never been able to hold down the opponent's head, until Zheng Ke and other main players return to the field one by one. The Timberwolves tied the Jazz again 34-34.
After Zheng Ke came on the field, he wanted to pass the ball. He was determined to see if he could break the deadlock on his own.
Zheng Ke controlled the ball through the half court and came to the perimeter of the Jazz defensive position, and Brewer looked at him coldly, his body tense and fully prepared.
This time, Zheng Ke made a blocking gesture to the inside, and Lefu quickly ran to Brewer's left side, swinging his hands down. Stand in a standard pick-and-roll position.
Brewer naturally also knew that Zheng Ke called his teammates to do the blocking, so he moved two steps forward and made the appearance that he wanted to bypass Lefou.
Zheng Ke holds the ball with his right hand. Suddenly, the right foot took a step to the right, and the body tilted sideways, this jiashi seemed to have deceived Brewer, and did not take the blocking route to the left.
Brewer was shocked. He retracted his body. I want to move to the right.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Ke actually made a feint, he grabbed the ball with his right hand and wrapped it around his back, and the whole person jumped to the left side, this simple back dribble felt like dancing.
Brewer has always thought that his physical fitness is amazing, but now he can't do it, although the center of gravity has shifted a little, but it is difficult to take it back.
Zheng Ke stood still after retracting the basketball and aimed at the frame. Jumped up and threw the ball.
"Bang!"
The basketball was a little less powerful and smashed on the outside edge of the hoop.
There was a sigh at the scene. If you can score this goal, you might be able to score a top 10 goal! This was the thought of all the audience at the scene. But then they cheered in unison.
Because Billups picked up the rebound.
Zheng Ke retracted his legs that were about to return to defense, and after seeing Billups pick up the rebound in the front court, he was overjoyed, and he faced Brewer and made a side-to-side jig feint.
Brewer had just retracted his center of gravity and was dizzy by Zheng Ke's feints.
Zheng Ke took the opportunity to slip into the inside line, Billups saw the stitch, hit the ground and gave Zheng Ke Zheng Ke received a pass from Billups in one step inside the free throw line, and standing in front of him was a mountain like Oku.
Stride, bow, jump, Zheng Ke raised the basketball with both hands, his face was cold, like a knight who is not afraid of hardships.
The Turk gave himself a shout and emboldened himself, and then jumped high, and he raised his hands as if he were a giant spirit.
"Good!" Sloan applauded his brave disciple, he loved to see the Jazz's iron-blooded defense, it should be like this, it should be like this! The center shouldn't be afraid of these spring people!
But Jung's offense won't be straight forever, and he's improved to face the jumping Oku. Zheng Ke's body writhed in the air, the whole person curled up together, and at the same time withdrew the hands that had been raised high and grabbed the basketball Zheng Ke swept past Oku's side, and the whole person stretched out suddenly, at this time, the hands that grabbed the basketball just drew a big circle on the chest, Zheng Ke straightened his waist and abdomen, and burst out with an amazing liliang!
Zheng Ke threw the basketball with his low hand, and the basketball drew a beautiful trajectory, smashed on the rebound, and bounced into the hoop!
The audience was surprised by Zheng Ke's big pull-up rod, it was really a picturesque layup, Zheng Ke, who has always been straight and rampant, can still do this kind of meticulous work?
However, they were not slow to react, and then there was a deafening cheer.
"I'm going to marry you! ZK" "I want to have a baby for you" A group of bold female fans screamed loudly, Zheng Ke's big lever showing off the waist and abdomen liliang made them reach an orgasm in an instant, and their minds irrepressibly imagined Zheng Ke's powerful waist and abdomen, that leopard-like body.
Sloan put away his hands in embarrassment, he didn't expect this nine-ten-ten-sure defense to turn out like this, and his face became a little unsightly.
Jazz offense.
It's still a simple pick-and-roll, this time it's Boozer who has a little chance, he tries a jumper at the free throw line, misses, and the basketball bounces to Lefou, Zheng Ke sees that Lefu picks up the rebound, and runs to the front court with his legs.
Lefu and Zheng Ke's tacit understanding gradually appeared, he threw the ball forward with a strong throw, looking at this jiashi as if he was nervous, but the accuracy of this long pass tells you that he is not joking. Zheng Ke ran too fast, and the Jazz team only had DeLong back to defend, and seeing Zheng Ke rushing over violently, DeLong was a little panicked. But then, he remembered the interview with the media before the game, and he was ruthless, protecting the vital point with both hands, and standing in front of Zheng Ke as if he were dead. This jiashi is clearly to create Zheng Ke to hit people with the ball.
"Hey!"
The corners of Zheng Ke's mouth curled slightly, a hint of cunning flashed, and when he saw Delong standing outside the three-second zone, he lowered his body's center of gravity.
"It's close!" Delong's heart jumped to his throat, Zheng Ke's liliang is already famous in the NBA, and if he hits him at full speed, I'm afraid that he will be more than lucky, at this moment, Delong regrets it a little.
In vain, Zheng Ke slowed down, he grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand, stretched out his left foot in front of Delong's toe of his shoe, grabbed the ground and did not move, his right foot exerted force, and the whole person turned around like a spinning top, bypassing Delong in an instant, and the swirling gust of wind blew Delong's jersey
Zheng Kehua turned one hand into holding the ball with both hands, and after turning around, he jumped up directly, jumped high in the air, and then smashed it down with both hands.
"Bang dang!"
At 38-34, the Timberwolves led by four points.
Zheng Ke stood under the basket and raised his hands arrogantly, signaling the audience to cheer louder.
Sure enough, the cheers came even harder, mixed with piercing screams, and the Minnesotans loved the arrogant guy to death.
The momentum of the Timberwolves became high after Zheng Ke's dunk.
Feeling humiliated, DeLong's face flushed, and he raced to the front court after getting the ball.
The ball went a few times on the outside, Zuihou was back in Delon's hands, and Delon called Boozer to come out to do the pick-and-roll, and almost instantly, he burst out with all his energy, and the anger stimulated his potential, and he passed Billups' defense, squeezed a path out, and rushed into the interior.
"Drink!" Delong shouted, jumped high, he raised the ball with one hand over his head, this jiashi, it was clear that he was going to come to a tomahawk slam dunk!
A hand appeared above his head in vain, and slapped it hard shortly after he took off.
It's like a poisonous snake that has been hidden for a long time, like a sharp eagle, and when the prey runs into his territory, he strikes!
"Smack!"
A sturdy hat, the big hand embroidered with colorful colors once again showed his value.
Exactly the Birdman!
"Birdman" Anderson stood under the basket and made a bird's flying celebratory gesture, and his insolent performance stimulated the hearts of all the audience, like a fire in this cold winter!
Zheng Ke picked up the basketball, snored, and accelerated to the front court.
He ran like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he passed half court, Brewer defended, Zheng Ke dribbled behind his back, and handed the ball back to his right hand, Zheng Ke's performance was so exaggerated, he attracted the attention of the audience, including Brewer and CJ Myers who retreated from the Jazz.
Zheng Ke looked to the left, but his left hand grabbed the ball around his back and made a back pass, and the basketball flew to Billups, who followed up on the right. Billups chased down the three-point line and hit a three-pointer!
41-34, the Timberwolves beat the Jazz to a 7-0 mini-climax.
Sloan gestured to pause, and Jazz asked for a timeout.
"Jump so high!"
When he returned to the bench, Zheng Kedaxiao said. He jumped up and made a passionate chest-banging celebration with Birdman Anderson (to be continued......)
