Chapter 252: The Overall Champion is Out

Looking back on the history of the previous finals, there are not a few players who can shine, but in the end, it is still the performance of the stars of the two teams that ultimately determines the outcome of the game.

Zheng Ke also said before the game that this will be the last game of the season.

His determination and self-confidence determined his form in this game, and at the beginning of the first quarter, Zheng Ke was on fire, not only for dunks, but also for back-to-back jumpers. Under the control of Billups' rhythm, the Magic team has always been passive, speeding up and slowing down in the rhythm of the Timberwolves.

At the end of the quarter, Zheng scored 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting, and the Timberwolves also led by four points at 29-25, and it looked like the Magic could still compete with the Timberwolves.

Zheng Ke only took a three-minute break and returned to the court, and the thought of lifting the O'Brien Cup made him feel so empowered that he asked Whitman to play.

When the audience saw Zheng Ke on the stage, they immediately waved the plastic rod in their hands and shouted Zheng Ke's name loudly.

The hearts of the Magic players are a little stunned, Zheng Ke's invincible performance in this round of the series has left a deep impression on the hearts of every Magic team player, just like James met in the last round, although in the end the Magic team won the series, but James's omnipotent appearance is exactly the same as the current Zheng Ke.

All-round is the biggest label on the two people, people used to like to compare James in the east and Kobe Bryant in the west, but now people prefer to compare James and Zheng Ke. The comparison of superstars is one of the most intriguing aspects of the NBA, and who is strong and who is weak is a topic that has a lot of saliva. Fans on both sides will not back down half a step, and they will be in a heated confrontation on the Internet because of this.

And Zheng Ke's appearance on the court is equivalent to finding the backbone for the Timberwolves players on the court. Naturally, my heart was much more at ease.

"Give it to me."

Zheng Ke held Pitrus in the low post and opened his arms for the ball.

After the Timberwolves player had a few outside passes, Lowry hit the ground and passed to Zheng. Petrus tried to grab it, but found himself stuck behind Zheng Ke and couldn't move.

After Zheng Ke got the ball, he observed the situation on the court, and there were players from the Magic team all around. There is a vague intention to surround him, and the Timberwolves' players are all over the perimeter, including Timberwolves center Channing Frye on the court.

This is a tactic similar to that of the Magic. Zheng Ke plays the role of Howard.

"Wrap him, wrap him!" Big Van Gundy commanded remotely from the sidelines and motioned for the Magic players to come forward and wrap up.

Alstom, who received the instructions, immediately trotted to the last term, and cowered as he prepared to grab Zheng Ke's basketball. After Zheng Ke saw it. Grabbing the basketball with one hand, he made a gesture of passing the ball outward.

Alstom was really fooled, his body was stunned, and he subconsciously took a small step back.

Zheng Ke showed a triumphant smile at the corner of his mouth, his left foot was the axis, and his right foot was rotated counterclockwise to the most suitable distance, and then his feet exerted force, and his body leaned back.

It's a standard step-back jumper.

"Huh!"

Significant recline. It seems extremely difficult; The big hand that covers the sky and the sun looks very well defensive. However, the fact is that Zheng Ke is still hit in the admiration of countless people.

At 36-29, the Timberwolves led by seven points.

There were female fans in the audience who were nymphomaniacs again: "Wow, Zheng is really handsome, look at his shooting posture, it's so elegant." ”

The male partner next to her has a different opinion: "I think this shot is beautiful, but what I like more is the moment when Zheng holds the ball and breaks through, and his earth-shattering dunk, which is really cool to watch." ”

And a male fan in front of him turned around and expressed his opinion. "I think the coolest thing about Zheng Ke is his stop-and-go jump shot after he breaks through, it's too domineering and too accurate!"

Today, Zheng Ke's offensive means have gradually diversified, especially as an outside lineman, Zheng Ke's superb shooting skills are really a headache, he is not a pitcher, but now his shooting rate is higher than many pitchers, so far in the playoffs, the total shooting rate has reached 50 percent, and the three-point shooting rate has reached 42 percent, which is a very terrifying two statistics.

The Magic team can't defend Zheng Ke, the bag is a little slower, or it doesn't cooperate well, Zheng Ke can think of a way to put the ball in the basket, and if the bag is in place, Zheng Ke uses a sharp ball to make the Magic's formation full of holes.

From the middle of the second quarter, the Magic team had a faint tendency to collapse, Howard made two internal turnovers and was beaten into two counterattacks by the Timberwolves.

The Timberwolves played more and more smoothly, leading the Magic 46-33, and the big Van Gundy called two timeouts in a row, but it didn't have much effect.

In high spirits, the Timberwolves actually started a full-court tight defense, and with the cheers of the audience, the Timberwolves ended the first half with a huge advantage of 57-37.

The crowd was already cheering, and the huge lead made it seem as if the audience had seen the championship banner in the wind, and they high-fived each other in celebration, with a suppressed smile on their faces.

In contrast, there is the dead silence of the Magic team in the away dressing at the target center. Howard didn't speak, sweat seeping from his forehead, flowing down his cheeks, and falling to the ground, he gulped for facsimile air, and his body really felt tired. Not only physically, but also mentally, Howard had an ominous premonition in his heart, feeling that he might really kneel here this time.

Coach Van Gundy is a morale-boosting player who encouraged the Magic players before the Finals began, "We even suppressed James, let alone Zheng Ke?" "At that time, the morale of the Magic team was high. But it turns out that Zheng Ke and James are different, James's most powerful is the impact of the penalty area, while Zheng Ke is good at accurate mid-range jumpers.

In the third quarter, the Timberwolves fielded a lineup of Zheng Ke, Lowry, Billups, Love and Channingflye. Anderson was saddled with four fouls and was temporarily off the bench. As a result, the Timberwolves' protection of the interior line is almost zero, but the offensive mobility is much higher.

The two teams entered the stage of mutual explosion, and the Timberwolves' endless fast attacks made the audience addicted, although many times the Timberwolves just pushed the ball past half the court, and then turned into a positional attack for someone to come. Channing Frye ran out obscenely and waited outside the three-point line, forcing Howard to come out too, and suddenly the Magic team was empty inside.

Zheng Ke read this keenly, did not ask for the ball, a simple reverse run, rushed to the basket of the Magic team, Lowry was bold, and directly gave an aerial relay.

Lewis and Zheng Ke jumped together.

Zheng Ke knocked Lewis away in the air, turned one hand into two hands, straightened his waist, and forced a dunk!

"Boom!"

Lewis was knocked to the ground, looking a little embarrassed. He had a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, feeling that he might well be the background picture of tomorrow, but now no one cared about him, not even a person who came to pull him up, and he got up depressedly, patted the ashes, and chased after him.

The Timberwolves led by 25 points heading into the fourth quarter and getting closer to the championship trophy.

After five minutes of play, the Magic still showed no sign of recovering the score, and Big Van Gundy replaced all the substitutes and announced his surrender.

At this point, the 08-09 NBA championship is officially released!

Minnesota Timberwolves! (To be continued......)
