Chapter Ninety-Three: Victory Over the Pistons
I don't know what Pistons head coach Sanders said to the Pistons at halftime, but from the beginning of the second half, the Pistons strengthened their defense in vain, and the defense became very layered, while putting more pressure on the ball carrier
In this case, Jaric, who appeared again, was successfully stolen by Billups directly from his hand, and then hit a layup in front of the court.
"Hell!" Jaric mumbled, then bent over and dribbled more carefully.
In the second half, the Timberwolves still chose their most commonly used lineup this season, a lineup of four shooters and a center, and under this tactical system similar to Magic, the Timberwolves can shoot people to death as long as they feel good
Jefferson received a basketball from the outside and began to play Wallace with his back near the paint area on the right side.
Rashid Wallace is one of the league's leading power forwards, he is a typical team member, on the offensive end, he is well-rounded, acting as a stable firepower, on the defensive end, his excellent movement speed and long arms ensure that he is a shooting assistant, he always maintains the focus and enthusiasm of the game, if you remove his liking and refereeing theory, it is estimated that there is no coach who does not like such players.
Jefferson faced the 34-year-old veteran and was a little stumped
The Pistons also did not take a defensive role, and let Jefferson single Wallace, it seems that Sanders is more afraid of the three-point rain shot by the Timberwolves than Jefferson's strong inside shot
Jefferson is going to make a reluctant shot!
Zheng Ke watched Jefferson's movements from the outside, and he saw that Prince, who was facing him, relaxed slightly, and slipped in with an acceleration from the left baseline
Jefferson's shot was reluctant, the angle and feel were not good, and the distance seemed to be a little far from the basket
The basketball smashes into the neck of the basket and pops outward!
"Good chance!"
Zheng Ke slammed his left foot on the ground and exerted his force violently, and the friction between his sneakers and the floor made a screeching sound! Then he flew into the air like a rocket! Wallace, who turned around, could only look up and watch Zheng Ke fly above his head at once
Zheng Ke lightly stretched his ape arm, grabbed the basketball like a moon in nine days, and then swung it down with a tomahawk!
"Bang!"
The basket let out a groan of pain under Zheng Ke's strange force, and Xiangxia completed a terrifying angle!
"Hiss~~"
The entire palace of Auburn Hills let out a gasp in unison, this mending button is too violent, too liliang! People couldn't help but take a closer look at this yellow-skinned young man who had been surrounded by the Timberwolves, was this still a weak Asian in their eyes? This is simply a wild beast with yellow skin!
"Top 10 balls, top 10 balls! You're in the top 10 again! Jefferson put his arm around Zheng Ke and said excitedly in his ear, McCantz, Channingfrye and others came over to touch the new hairstyle of the little brother in their eyes and pat Zheng Ke's buttocks
The Timberwolves' bench was also in a state of boiling, with Randy Foye taking the lead waving towels on the bench and even making a worship gesture there
Compared with the momentum of the Timberwolves, the atmosphere of the Pistons is a little depressed, Wallace feels that his old face is a little unbearable, he has just become the background of Zheng Ke's dunk, which makes him embarrassed, but Zheng Ke dunked cleanly, he just wants to find the referee to theorize and there is no reason
At the critical moment, it was Billups, the soul of the Pistons, who stepped up with the help of Antonio McDyce's blocking, shot directly from the outside, hit a three-pointer, and suddenly suppressed the Timberwolves' rising arrogance a little
After Zheng Ke's dunk, the whole Timberwolves played very passionately, but in fact, the efficiency was not high, but fortunately McCantz performed well in this game, he hit two more shots from the outside, so that the Timberwolves seemed to have the upper hand on the court at the end of the third quarter, and the Timberwolves led by 5 points at 70-65.
At the start of the fourth quarter, Whitman was interviewed by ESPN's beautiful reporter Erin Andrews.
"Hello, Randy, you should be happy with the Timberwolves' previous game, right?"
Whitman looked at the bewitching woman and smiled: "Yes, overall, I'm very satisfied with the first three quarters of the Timberwolves' game, we played our own style and shot a lot of three-pointers, but in the middle of the third quarter, the whole team was a little chaotic, but fortunately they adjusted immediately."
Andrews continued: "So who do you think of the Timberwolves as your favorite performer?" ”
Whitman thought for a moment and muttered: "Generally speaking, I'm very happy with all the Timberwolves players, McCantz made a lot of three-pointers, he had a great touch in this game, Zheng Ke made a wonderful dunk, his defense brought energy to the Timberwolves, and Al, he gave a lot of help to his teammates inside"
Andrews retracted the microphone and pointed it at the camera and said, "Haode, Xiexie you, Randy"
Whitman: "It's okay"
The benches of the two teams can't be said to be evenly matched, but at least, the Timberwolves' bench lineup, driven by Randy Foye's hot touch, has been tightly guarding this five-point lead
Randy Foyer was rewarded for his outstanding performance by Whitman, who did not bring on the idle Jarric and instead played Zuihou with a second-quarter lineup
Randy Foye controls the basketball in the front court, and he looks up to see where his teammates move.
Zheng Ke slipped to the flank to make an off-ball cover for McCantz, McCantz slipped past Zheng Ke's side like a dexterous cat, and Hamilton was consciously blocked by Zheng Ke, but this kid also reacted super quickly, and quickly yelled at Prince: "Supplement!" ”
Prince motioned for acceptance, and quickly moved to follow McCantz.
As soon as Prince left, Zheng Ke immediately asked Randy Foye for the ball, and Foye handed the ball to Zheng Ke without any hesitation
Zheng Ke stuck Hamilton sideways and grabbed the basketball with one hand
Hold the ball in one hand!
With such a handsome pose, Zheng Ke made many of his female fans watching the TV broadcast scream, and this pose was quite Maddie's feeling
Although Hamilton is thin, he is not afraid of physical confrontation, and in the Pistons, the league's top defensive team, Hamilton has learned a lot of defensive skills, including all kinds of small actions
Zheng Ke looked at the masked man who quietly pinched his soft flesh, and frowned, yes, it really hurts!
He didn't care about being handsome, so he drove directly at full speed, and broke through to Hamilton's right side with a big stride!
"What?"
Hamilton was taken aback, Zheng Ke started quickly, and Liliang was also very sufficient, running over his body like a heavy tank!
Hamilton quietly opened his hand to push Zheng Ke, but Zheng Ke was like a nobody, and broke through Hamilton's defense at once!
Zheng Ke attracted Antonio McDyce from the outside defense, and he quickly distributed it to Channing Frye, who was ambushed in the bottom corner!
Fryjan hand, three-point shot!
Pretty! Whitman applauded at the bottom, this time the offensive routine is very clear, and the tactics are fully played, it is the Timberwolves-style offense he wants to see!
The Timberwolves lead by nine points 80-71!
Billups got the ball and he gave instructions for the number two tactic.
The Pistons will not say a word, silently stand in position according to Billups's request, and then start to run a series of tactical Pistons outside a series of turns, Zuihou handed the ball to Rashid, who was already empty near the free throw line, Rashid hit a straight-arm jumper!
The Timberwolves quickly countered, the basketball was stealed by Prince, and Billups hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner
Jefferson missed a strong shot inside, grabbed the basketball in the front court, and attacked twice, causing Rashid to foul
Two free throws and two hits
Prince dribbles through and walks!
Zheng Ke broke through and McCantz missed a three-point shot
Hamilton shook McCantz, dribbled a jumper and hit!
Randy Foye breaks through and causes a foul on Billups
Jefferson divides Zheng Ke, Zheng Ke shoots three-pointers, hits iron!
Rashid took a shot and was interfered with by Jefferson, and the rebound was grabbed by Zheng Ke
Zheng Ke dribbled to the front court in one go, divided the ball Randy Foye, and Randy Foye chased three points and hit!
As the game went by, the Timberwolves always found a way to score offensively, and the Pistons were not the kind of team that could explode to score in an instant, and the victory of the game began to tilt in favor of the Timberwolves
Finally, at the end of the game, the Timberwolves still led the Pistons by nine points, and the Pistons replaced all the main players on the court and announced their surrender
In this game, McCantz scored 26 points on 10-of-17 shooting, and the team scored a total of 97 points, beating the second place in the Eastern Conference by 7 points
After the game, some media described the game as follows:
Looking at the game before and after, the excellent feel of the whole Timberwolves team may be one of the reasons for the victory over the Pistons, but it is by no means the most critical factor, when Jefferson encountered resistance on the inside and could not get the advantage in the hands of Rashid, Zheng Ke stood up, he strangled Prince with his defense, and made up for his teammates at any time, he used his breakthrough to cause trouble for the Pistons many times, and really did the tandem inside and outside, he is the lubricant of the Timberwolves, and the true core of the Timberwolves' outside line!
