Chapter 178: Queen Bee Stinger

Paul is 24 years old and in his prime, and he's shooting a staggering 50 percent from the field this year, which is a miracle given the offense with a huge share of outside shooting.

The first wave of the Hornets' offense was led by Paul.

West did the blocking, Paul burst inside, attracted the double bag and sent it to the high post West, West made a high jumper and flicked his hands.

Hit. 2 to 2.

Zheng Ke's eyes froze slightly, in a way, Paul, like Delon, is a good player who is good at using blocking, and in the face of this kind of opponent, the Timberwolves always play very hard.

Timberwolves offense.

Zheng Ke ran sideways, shook off Peja behind him, just ran to the position, the ball had already passed from Billups's hand, catch the ball, turn, jump, in one go, a three-in-a-row, with a slight sense of elegance, the ball with endless spinning, drew a small arc, swept into the basket.

"Huh!" Hollow into the net.

Zheng Ke raised his right hand and glanced at Peja, who was a position away from him, with a vaguely discernible disdain on his face.

Peja's face looked embarrassed and angry, but then calmed down again. Although Zheng Ke's bukkake embarrassed him, he was already 32 years old after all, with rich experience, and his heart fluctuations were far smaller than that of a twenty-year-old stunned youth.

The ball turned upside down on the Hornets' perimeter, and the faces of the Hornets players were not anxious.

Suddenly, LaSalle Butler kicked in, and the short head rushed inside, just half a body faster than Aflalo behind him. Paul, who had the ball on the outside, had a glint in his eyes, and he had worked with Butler for four seasons to know the habits of this teammate, only to see him flick his wrist. The basketball disappeared from his hand like magic.

The basketball turned into an orange light and bounced off the floor, just in the hands of Butler, who cut inside, and the physical guard swingman slapped the ball, accelerated in an instant, and was about to dunk in the face of Anderson!

Anderson's hands rose, and the two had a blood-pumping muscle confrontation in the air.

"Drop~"

The referee blew the whistle: "Blue No. 11 hitman fouls." ”

"Oh no, I didn't foul." Anderson suddenly hugged his head and was depressed. Foul trouble has been bothering him, and while he can contribute nearly 2.6 blocks a night, he also has to get four or five fouls a night. Sometimes, I even graduate with 6 fouls, and now I have been fouled again so early, and I naturally feel a lot of pain in my heart.

Butler made two of two free throws.

4-4 draw.

The player entered the NBA in the same year as Caron Butler. Also into the Heat. The difference is that one is a starter and the other is a substitute. This season is his best season since entering the NBA, averaging 11.2 points per game and shooting 39 percent from three-point range.

The Timberwolves' offense was still started from Billups, and in the end they still chose Zheng Ke as the endpoint, after he received the ball. Diagonally into the inside, Peja's slow footwork couldn't keep up with him.

The Hornets' defense immediately shrank. Butler, Paul and others on the outside all moved to the inside with Zheng Ke's breakthrough.

Zheng Ke's head was facing left, but his left hand grabbed the ball and threw it away.

There, Aflalo stretched out his hands, already ready.

Jumping, shooting, striking iron.

The basketball rebounded, no coincidence, just to the side of Zheng Ke who broke through to the inside, Zheng Ke was overjoyed, and reached out to grab this offensive rebound.

However, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Zheng Ke, his speed was so amazing, and he robbed the rebound before Zheng Ke could react!

Zheng Ke subconsciously reacted and immediately returned to the defense, he turned his head to see that a No. 3 back was already running wildly.

The Hornets' counterattack came so quickly!

It should have been Paul's counterattack that came so quickly, in just an instant, he overtook Billups and crossed to the front of everyone, and at this time, Zheng Ke's speed also exploded with all his strength, like a lion chasing its prey, biting behind Paul.

The two rushed into the three-point line together, one after the other.

One step, two steps, it seemed as if Paul was ready to settle the fight with a simple low-handed layup.

Before he could think about it, Zheng Ke launched the chase block master, he strode and rushed towards Paul, and his speed increased by one point at that moment, however, just as he was about to jump, he suddenly found that the ball in Paul's hand was missing?

Gone again?

Zheng Ke turned his head left and right to look for it, and sure enough, he saw a tall figure, I don't know when, Peja had already ambushed outside the three-point line!

Defending Peja was Billups, who completely ignored his defense and jumped straight to shoot.

Billups is only 1.91 meters tall, and he is tall in the point guard position, but in front of Peja, who is 2.08 meters tall, he is too short, just like a man of 1.8 meters playing shooting in front of a man of 1.6 meters, and his vision is completely undisturbed.

"Huh!"

The Hornets led the Timberwolves by three points 7-4.

When retreating, Zheng Ke glanced at Peja in surprise, this "old man" is so slow when he defends, and he can still keep up with Paul's rhythm when he attacks?

"Take your time, don't rush." Billups spoke loudly and then unhurriedly possessed the ball through the half, and he was always very calm at all times, even if someone had just bukkake him.

Most of the Timberwolves' tactics are some running tactics without the ball, and in most cases, the ball will end up in Zheng's hands, allowing him to choose to attack the basket, shoot directly, break through the ball, or pass back to Billups to re-attack, which is why Zheng's assists this season can reach an average of 5.3 per game. You know, among small forwards, apart from James, he has the highest number of assists.

This time, Zheng Ke made a counter-run and received a ball from Billups, and he took a big step to the right and passed Peja in another step.

In the face of West, Zheng Ke chose to make a stop-and-go jumper, and this time West was very resolute, Zheng Ke received some interference, and the basketball brushed out of the frame.

"Rebound!" Although West pounced, he was still very worried about his team's rebounds.

His worries were unfounded, though, as Elvin Eli, Yao Ming's classmate squeezed past Anderson and grabbed the rebound with both hands.

The rest of the Timberwolves players immediately returned to defend to prevent the Hornets from playing a fast break.

It was still the same pick-and-roll offense, and after more than ten seconds, Paul and West made a pick-and-roll at 45 degrees from the free throw line.

Anderson was in a trance, and although he pounced, he was worried about being fouled by Paul, so he hesitated slightly.

Paul saw the timing and threw a short toss with one hand.

The basketball went exactly 5 centimeters past Anderson's fingertip and then fell straight into the hoop.

9 to 4.

"Change guards quickly!" Whitman, who was on the sidelines, stood up and yelled at the Timberwolves players on the court a few times in dissatisfaction, and the opening Hornets made several successful blocks, which gave him a sense of foreboding.

Zheng Ke wanted to rush inside to pursue the shooting percentage, but he was immediately caught by the Hornets after the breakthrough, and this time he gave it to Billups at the top of the arc.

Billups tries to shoot from the outside.

"Bang!"

The shot was a little harder, and the basketball smashed under the back edge of the basket, bounced high, and fell vertically, and all the Hornets players surrounded it to protect the backcourt rebound.

Paul and Billups were once again aligned at the top of the arc.

The two stood facing each other, exuding a terrifying murderous aura in the middle, as if thousands of troops were about to start fighting.

Paul beckoned Billups to come out to block and pick, and although he wanted to get past Billups like this, he still chose the most effortless way to attack at this stage.

"Again!" Even Billups frowned slightly, and he quietly approached Paul and ran over West's cover with him.

Paul's attack erupted from the moment he turned.

Bend over, bend your knees, turn around, and exert force.

No one expected Paul to choose to break down the left, and his flashy turn instantly allowed him to switch to the left, while Billups misjudged and was blocked by West.

Paul fed the ball forward, followed in one step, and in the blink of an eye it was inside.

"!"

Anderson took the plunge and met Paul, and he had already made up his mind that even if it was a foul, he must pull Paul down this time.

Still throwing the ball into the air.

Anderson jumped up like a helicopter, but he was still a little short. Some people's passes are so precise that you can even feel the air flow of the basketball through the air, but you can't touch it.

This time, the basketball track is slightly offset.

It's an air relay!

Eli grabbed the basketball in the air with both hands and slammed it down!

"Bang!"

The Hornets led 11-4.

Although there was no Tyson Chandler, the Hornets still played a wonderful aerial relay, and Whitman gestured to the referee to ask for a timeout.

Zheng Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, what a queen bee stinger (to be continued......)
