Chapter 392: Timberwolves VS Spurs (5)

Duncan leans his back against Lefour outside the paint area on the right side.

The Spurs players are very open, and the Timberwolves don't dare to wrap it up easily. Eyes were focused on Lefu and Duncan, and the two of them, one old and one young, wrestled with each other and competed.

The NBA court is such a big place, and for NBA players who are more than two meters tall on average, there is very little space between them. Playing a game with smart people is a process of exchanging space for time, and time for space. The Spurs are the smartest team in the league and have the strongest tactical execution, but playing the Timberwolves at this time can't avoid this most primitive method.

Duncan put away the basketball and suddenly turned around.

It is rare for someone to turn around in front of Lefou, because Lefu is particularly wide compared to other inside lines, and it is not easy to turn in front of him. Duncan's nimble and light turn was sudden and swift, and after turning to the baseline, he easily stuck Lefou's body and then attacked the basket.

Love, who was good at card slotting, completely lost his position, and he reached for Duncan.

Duncan was pulled off balance by Love's reach, and he shouted "two plus one" in the air, giving his right hand to his left hand and flicking it on the neck of the basket.

The referee's whistle sounds.

The basketball smashed into the neck, bounced twice, and rolled into the basket.

Duncan's eyes widened, and his fists clenched and flailed. The old guys of the Spurs were not calm anymore, and they surrounded them one by one, their eyes exuding excitement.

There was silence in the center of the target, and Lefou, in annoyance, stood there with his hips crossed. He had a terrible time in this period, making mistakes on the offensive end and not being able to contain Duncan on the defensive end.

Zheng Ke came to comfort Lefu at this time and gently patted Lefu's tiger back.

"It's okay, it's still us who is ahead. Just give them back! ”

Lefu pursed his mouth, his face was a little bitter, "It's really unpleasant to be beaten like this by an old man."

Duncan made a free throw, 109-107. There is 1 minute 07 seconds left.

The Timberwolves did not ask for a timeout, and Thibodeau directly gave tactical instructions on the sidelines, instructing the players to directly hand over the ball to Zheng Ke to deal with, and use singles when they have the opportunity, and pass the ball again if they have no chance.

Like the choice of "Bobo" Vic, Thibodeau did not arrange complex tactics at this time. It was completely handed over to Zheng Ke to play alone, based on the Timberwolves' excellent ability to open up space, such a tactic made the Spurs' defense a little stretched.

Zheng Ke controlled the ball over half court, dribbled not fast, and Danny Green "rubbed" back.

The excellent ball control ability makes the basketball like an extension of Zheng Ke's body, between the square inches around Zheng Ke. This basketball is like a life, rolling through flowers.

The Spurs defended three and two, Parker, Danny Green, Ginobili three in the front row, Duncan and Blair in the low post.

This is to block Zheng's breakthrough, and at the same time, it is also betting that the Timberwolves' three-point shot in the final moments is not so accurate. "Bobo" Vicky saw it through. It is better to prevent the Timberwolves from shooting three-pointers from the outside, as long as the latter misses the shot, the Spurs' hopes will be greatly increased.

Danny Green grabbed space on the side, and Zheng Ke tangled with him from beyond the three-point line.

The young man is young and vigorous, and the referee's whistle at the last moment is not so strict, and many actions are suspected of fouls. Zheng Ke simply leaned over from outside the three-point line and collided with him hard.

"Bang!"

Danny Green's chassis was unstable and he fell straight to the ground.

I didn't expect such an opportunity to appear, and "Bobo" Vic didn't expect this in his calculations. Zheng Ke turned around and hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc.

Return! 112 to 107.

It was another sensational goal. The fans at the target center raised their hands and let out a tsunami of cheers, and the roar of the untidy "MVP" was endless.

However, the referee stopped the game at this time, and the decision of the sideline referee and the referee deviated, and a two-point goal was awarded. A three-pointer awarded.

Zheng Ke's position was at the top of the arc, just before the body of Danny Green, who fell to the ground, as if he was stepping on the three-point line.

The three referees on duty got together, and then the referee applied to watch the video replay to the technical station.

The referee put on headphones and watched the video carefully in front of the technical table. Watch Zheng Ke's shot from multiple camera angles such as overhead, side, front, etc. Zheng Ke's shots fell back in front of everyone again and again, and the fans opened their eyes wide, and then disagreed on whether Zheng Ke stepped on the line. Timberwolves fans said that they definitely didn't step on the line, and Spurs fans said that if you stepped on the line, don't admit it, okay?

The referee put down the headphones and then held out two fingers, meaning it was a two-point shot.

The crowd was upset, and no matter what kind of scientific basis the referee was based on, they immediately sent countless middle fingers and the warmest greetings from Minnesota to their families. The tidal boos filled the ears of the players, and thanks to the experienced referees, they were able to keep their faces unchanged.

The Spurs trailed by four points 107-111 with 49.7 seconds remaining.

"Bobo" Vic did not hesitate to choose a timeout, but he took the penultimate timeout of the 48 minutes of the game, and if he didn't use the timeout at this time, if he lost the game, he would be complained by countless people.

Barkley said: "Zheng Ke is a true superstar and his scoring ability in crunch time is unmatched. "Bobo" Vic's substitution of Jefferson was a wrong choice, and although Danny Green's offensive performance in the fourth quarter was impressive, how to defend Zheng Ke was the most important problem to solve. ”

Smith took out the technical statistics table and commented: "Zheng Ke has scored 51 points in this game, and he has made 5 of 8 three-point shots. In addition, Zheng Ke grabbed 14 rebounds and handed out 12 assists, and his performance was very comprehensive, which was enough to go down in history. ”

Barkley said: "Zheng Ke has improved every year, he has been training really hard. ”

Thibodeau guessed that "Bobo" would also let Duncan control the ball in the final moments, just as he trusted Zheng the most, and this is when the superstar and the team's soul should step up. So he arranged for Jordan Jr. and Zheng Ke to assist in defense, and the Timberwolves' outside three can rotate to defend, and Zheng Ke can pinch Duncan at any time.

"As long as we defend this ball, we will win this game!" Thibodeau exclaimed.

The timeout ends and the players enter. The noisy sound at the scene was quieted, and at this exciting critical moment, the fans held their breath, and those who had the urge to urinate were holding their breath, for fear that they would lose the best shot when they went to the toilet.

Duncan stood on the sideline to serve, and as soon as the referee's whistle blew, the Spurs players immediately made a tactical run. Parker ran out of a straight tactical position, took advantage of Blair's cover to run to the line to receive Duncan's ground-hitting pass, and then dribbled the ball and circled to the inside.

The Timberwolves' defense rotated, Jordan Jr. stood in front of Parker, and Parker split the ball outside Ginobili.

Ginobili shook in front of Zheng Ke for a moment, then burst with speed, took a step across and killed to the right. Zheng Ke stuck to him, his hands interfering with small movements, and his body continued to exert pressure.

At this time, Duncan, who served on the sideline, also ran into the inside, and the insiders piled up and squeezed together.

No one saw the strange pass of the demon knife, and Zheng Ke didn't notice when Ginobili made the shot. The dribbling left hand seemed to have spirituality, and a behind-the-back pass on the run directly found the Spurs player in ambush in the bottom right corner - Danny Green!

This is not "Bobo" Vic's tactical arrangement, but "Bobo" Vic did say that if the Timberwolves focus on defending the interior, they can also fight on the outside as appropriate, preferring only three points rather than long-distance two-point shots.

Danny Green has never performed on such a big stage, but he is born with a big heart.

The moment he got the ball, he understood his duty. As the team's stereotyped shooter, his only task is to shoot the ball into the basket at this time.

Bend your knees, jump, shoot.

In one go, the basketball hollows into the net! 111 to 110 with 31.9 seconds remaining.

At the moment of the goal, Danny Green's own heart was about to burst, and his heart just now was like water, but at the moment it was completely destroyed, his brain was congested, and his excitement was extreme. However, although the rest of the Spurs team was also excited, they immediately retreated to prevent the Timberwolves players from serving quickly and playing fast breaks.

The Timberwolves called a timeout.

The game was up and down, and Danny Green's three-pointer gave the Spurs hope of victory and increased the pressure on the Timberwolves players. Without the excitement of the Spurs' timeout just now, the atmosphere on the bench of the Timberwolves at the moment was obviously depressed, and the players had serious expressions and nervous expressions.

Thibodeau is still the main attack of Zheng Ke, even if it is guessed by "Bobo" Vic.

The whistle sounded to serve, and after the Timberwolves guided the ball a few times from the outside, it was handed over to Zheng Ke. The Spurs won't come up and foul at this time, even if the Timberwolves spend those 24 seconds, at least they still have one last chance to attack. Zheng Ke walked to the top of the arc and did not move, and the Spurs players did not mean to grab.

Time passed minute by minute, and after more than ten seconds, Zheng Ke suddenly started.

As soon as he moved, the Spurs' bag followed, Zheng Ke just broke through Jefferson (finally changed me), and on the other side, Ginobili and Duncan immediately formed a double ghost shooting against him, Zheng Ke was surrounded by Spurs players in black jerseys, and was surrounded by heavy siege.

Zheng Ke did not choose to attack, and passed to the outside, where there was an empty space.

Afflalo received the pass, he was 45 degrees outside the three-point line, Ginobili let him go to trap Zheng Ke, a bit of a gamble, betting that the other Timberwolves players could not shoot.

"Cast!"

Zheng Ke let out a loud shout, and Afraro jumped up.

The basketball rolls in the air, and countless heads are raised in the center of the target, staring at it (to be continued).
