"Long time no see, UAE." Zheng Ke skillfully dribbled the ball under his crotch and grinned.

"Long time no see, Ake." Yi Jianlian tiptoed the ball in his hand, and the basketball drew a beautiful arc and plunged into the net.

"Ake?" Zheng Ke suddenly had a black line, how does this title sound like

"Your team has been so strong lately, it's been eleven consecutive wins, it's too ferocious." Yi Jianlian wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled at Zheng Ke.

"Yes, we've all surpassed the Trail Blazers and are fifth in the West."

"I envy you." Yi Jianlian said enviously.

"Hehe," Zheng Ke laughed dryly, he knew that the Bucks had a bad record and were in the bottom of the East, so it was not good to be too embarrassed, so he had to be silent.

The Timberwolves played back-to-back games, rushed to Milwaukee for several days, and after a night's rest at the hotel, they arrived at Bradley Center, the Bucks' arena, the next afternoon. Unexpectedly, the players of the Bucks have also arrived, and it seems that for a big enemy like the Timberwolves, the Bucks have unconsciously increased their pre-game training.

"Boom"

Zheng Ke was surprised to see Yi Jianlian's three-point shot.

"Allian, it feels good." Zheng Ke smiled, stopped dribbling under his crotch, and grabbed the ball in his hand with one hand.

"It's fine."

He always cherishes words like gold, Zheng Ke smiled indifferently, and said, "Why don't we compare." After speaking, he picked up the basketball and dialed it out, "Huh," hollow into the net.

Yi Jianlian's eyes lit up, but then. He gloomy again, shook his head, and said, "Forget it." ”

Seeing Yi Jianlian's refusal. Zheng Ke didn't ask Weishenme, he didn't have to think about it to know that Yi Jianlian must be uncomfortable playing in the Bucks. This season, although Yi Jianlian averaged 14.3 points per game, he only had 6.8 rebounds, which was too little for an insider. There have been many media accusing Yi Jianlian's style of play being too weak, which has put him under a lot of pressure.

Zheng Ke thought about it and didn't say anything. The Bucks are not very suitable for Yi Jianlian, Zheng Ke has long seen that what is suitable for Yi Jianlian, whose three-point shooting ability is skyrocketing, is a team with a strong low-post attacker or a team that does not need to defend when playing cannonballing. Like magic. For example, the Sun, of course, Magic has Lewis, and the Sun also has Xiaosi, and the thirst for Yi Jianlian is not particularly high, and Zheng Ke is just worrying about it and helping to think about it, he won't say it.

"I'll go first."

The two of them chatted for a while. Zheng Ke left here.

Suddenly, the reporters on the sidelines made another "click" sound, and countless films recorded the whole process of Zheng Ke and Yi Jianlian's conversation at this moment

Monday night. Bradley Center.

"Charles, which team do you like for tonight's battle between the Timberwolves and the Bucks?" Partnering Barkley today is former Kings superstar, Chris Webb.

"Of course it's the Timberwolves, they've won 11 games in a row, and tonight is the time for them to go for the all-time record, and if they win against the Bucks, they can break the longest winning streak in franchise history, and I think all the players in the Timberwolves will do their best." Barkley had a meaty mouth and made his own opinion.

"In fact, I'm also bullish on the Timberwolves," Webber said: "The Timberwolves' defense has been very good recently, at the beginning of the season, I thought that the Timberwolves with a crippled interior defense would have a big problem, but I didn't expect them to find the "Birdman", you know, "Birdman" Chris Anderson averaged 2.5 blocks per game this season, and he became the Timberwolves' interior defensive gate. ”

Barkley said: "That's right, and the Timberwolves have a great sense of rhythm, they have the league's most consistent point guard, Chauncey Billups, and there are very few teams that can disrupt the rhythm of the Timberwolves, fast as they want, slow as they want, you know, it's very difficult to do that, and it's very powerful. ”

The two of them spat and commented, and the players on the field had already warmed up and started to prepare for the game.

"Aaron," Zheng Ke quietly pulled Afflalo: "Michael (Reed) will be handed over to you, that guy is very accurate in three-point shooting, but now he is plagued by injuries, as long as you stick to him and force him to go inside, he won't have to worry." ”

“soeasy！” Aflalo's eyebrows furrowed, his face full of confidence.

"It's up to you!" Zheng Haha smiled, ravaged Aflaro's head, and the two walked onto the field shoulder to shoulder.

The referee blows the whistle and throws the ball into the air, and the game begins!

Bucks starting lineup: point guard Ramon Sessions, shooting guard Reed, small forward Richard Jefferson, power forward Yi Jianlian, center Andrew Bogut.

Timberwolves' starting lineup: point guard Chancey Billups, scoring guard Aaron Afflalo, small forward Zheng Ke, power forward Kevin Love, center Chris Anderson.

Bogut beat Anderson and won the jump ball.

Sessions carefully dribbled the ball across half court, after which he stretched out his free right hand and began to organize the first wave of offense, and the Bucks players began to run in an orderly manner.

Reed trotted all the way from 45 degrees on the right side and slipped to the baseline, where Bogut protected the key point with both hands and gave Reed an off-ball cover like a mountain, and Afflaro avoided it and took a little time to get around Bogut. At this time, Reed had already run to 45 degrees on the left side, and he received the ball and shot directly half-turned.

The basketball slammed into the hard hoop and jumped straight away.

"Mine!"

Zheng Ke took two steps, looked at the basketball flying in the sky, jumped up, grabbed it with one hand, and then put his hands together and let out a "bang!" There was a loud bang.

"Good board!"

Billups watched Zheng Ke fly up, and knew that this basketball would be won by Zheng Ke, so he quietly moved his feet and played a fast attack.

I have to say that the Bucks' defensive awareness is indeed a little worse, and when Zheng Ke made a long pass to Billups, no one returned to the defense.

Sessions reacted and ran wildly, but how could it be too late?

Billups made an easy small basket to get off to a good start.

"Wow, a husband and wife." Barkley screamed, but his eyes revealed an unconcealed appreciation, in his opinion, a top team should have a one-man show, there should also be a two-person turn, Zuihou also needs an invincible team attack.

"That's right, after half a season of running-in, ZK and Chauncey are getting closer and better, like this kind of cooperation we can often see in the Timberwolves' games, this season, Chauncey's average assists per game is 6.5, the lowest in several seasons, but the average points per game are 19.8 points, which is the highest score of his career, Charles, what do you think?"

"It's normal," Barkley said, "The Timberwolves have ZK, a big killer in the city, you know, he can contribute nearly 24 points a night, and almost all opponents will focus on him, but he also has a good passing hand, so it's no surprise that Chauncey's scoring has increased." ”

The two chatted on the sidelines, and the game on the field was progressing rapidly. Just like Barkley said, the Bucks care too much about Zheng Ke, as soon as Zheng Ke gets the ball, everyone's attention is attracted, whenever he breaks through into it, there will be players who can't hold their breath and come to the bag, in the opening 2 minutes, Billups made three shots and scored 8 points, and Zheng Kehan has already scored 3 assists before he comes out. The Bucks, on the other hand, just relied on Bogut to score two points.

Bucks head coach Scott Skels immediately called a timeout, and the 45-year-old head coach is in pain right now, having the same pain as all the head coaches who have played against the Timberwolves this season — without the pain of a top wing defender. Jefferson is really good offensively, but his feet on the defensive side are too slow, and in the face of Zheng Ke, who is known as having lightning steps, his defense is useless.

To pack or not to pack? This is a question, Skyles fell into deep thought, if he didn't wrap up, he might be killed by Zheng Ke, but if he was trapped, he might be shot to death by Billups, and he felt that his head was bigger.

"Coach Scott should be miserable right now," Barkley gloated, "In this era of outside stars, how can you get mixed up in this league without a few wing defenders?" ”

For Barkley's gloating appearance, Webber said that he was speechless, and he still helped the home team to say a few good words: "The Bucks are just stuck in a dead loop now, in fact, their most important thing is the offensive problem, for Zheng Ke, there is no need to invest so many troops, just hand it over to Bogut, and the situation on the court can definitely be reversed." ”

"Yes, Australians are only ridden once or twice at most." Barkley said.

Webb: "(To be continued......)
