Chapter 210: Sweeping

On the Timberwolves' bench, there was a silent atmosphere, which was incompatible with the hustle and bustle around him, and only Whitman's rough voice kept talking about the next tactical ideas.

Zheng Ke's eyes gradually narrowed into a line, the cacophony in his ears gradually faded away, he took a few deep breaths, lowered his head on the bench, sweat slid down Zheng Ke's cheeks to the tip of his nose, gathered into a drop, and fell on the floor. No one knows what he's thinking right now.

There are only 130 seconds of rest between bars, which is a blink of an eye.

"Gone, on." Zheng Ke was tapped on the shoulder.

"Huh?" Zheng Ke was puzzled, he looked up, Whitman was standing in front of him: "Young man, come to the game, what are you thinking?" “

"Eh" Zheng Ke reflexively stood up and took off his training clothes, but his heart was full of doubts, isn't this the time for the substitute to play, how to change himself to play.

Whitman seemed to see through Zheng Ke's doubts, he smiled and explained: "Today's bench did not play well, we are only 13 points behind now, you can lead the bench on the court, whether you can recover the score is up to you, Zheng." “

Zheng Ke suddenly realized when he heard this, he nodded solemnly, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, coach, I will definitely go all out." “

"Go ahead! Stay safe. Whitman waved his hand.

The Trail Blazers replaced Aldridge but left Roy on the court. Seeing that Zheng Ke remained on the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter, McMillan couldn't help but congratulate his decision.

The ball at the beginning of the fourth quarter belonged to the Timberwolves, who won the opening jump. Zheng Ke took possession of the ball and advanced himself through the half.

The Trail Blazers on-court lineup consists of Blake, Roy. Fernandes, Outlo and Oden, in this case, the responsibility of defending Zheng Ke can only be handed over to the Spaniard Fernandes.

Cold sweat broke out on Fernandez's head, and he secretly cursed the shameless Timberwolves coach in his heart, but his movements were not slow, and he put on a standard defensive posture. Embattled.

The basketball was moved back and forth under Zheng Ke's crotch, and Zheng Ke's body kept changing its center of gravity with the movement of the basketball, like left and right. A thousandth of a second later, Zheng took a big step with his left foot, followed by his body, and broke through to the left like lightning. Fernandez hurried to take a step back with his right foot. I want to keep up with Zheng Ke.

But the next moment, Zheng Ke changed direction in front of him, and the basketball slapped to the ground before switching to his right hand, completely passing Fernandez's defense with a super large and extremely fast change of direction.

This time it's too fast, Zheng Ke's speed completely exploded, how fast is the ability value of 95? That's even more than 90 percent of point guards in the NBA!

Auden's reaction was not unpleasant, and it was not for nothing that he was called "The Great". The Tarzan-like extra-long arm span stands up and takes a step. Like a mountain, it stood in front of Zheng Ke.

"Death to those who stand in my way!"

Zheng Ke's black pupils contracted instantly, the sneakers made a violent grinding sound on the floor, and the calf muscles burst out with terrifying power, and the whole person flew into the sky like a spring.

Zheng Ke grabbed the basketball with one hand and held it high in the air, at that moment, there was nothing else in his eyes, only the basket in front of him between heaven and earth, and there was only one thought in his mind, that is, he must smash that damn ball into it!

"Bang!"

Zheng Ke rode on Auden's head, leaning forward, pulling the basket with one hand, and the hard basketball hoop was deformed, bending slightly downward, as if he had surrendered.

The cacophony of voices in the rose garden was swept away, and the audience gasped in unison, their eyes widened and their minds blanked, not knowing what to say.

It was the Timberwolves players on the court who reacted first, Randy Foye ran over for the first time, he looked excited, pushed Zheng Ke's chest hard with both hands, and yelled loudly:

"Riding buckle, brother, you're too hanging!"

Immediately afterwards, Channing Fry and others ran over one after another, everyone rubbed their heads, and hit their chests, and the momentum of all the timberwolves became crazy.

"Back to the defense, guys!" Zheng Ke's face was calm, he stretched out his right hand and motioned for everyone to disperse. At his reminder, the Timberwolves players quickly retreated with excitement.

Auden awkwardly got up from the floor, his mind was now full of pictures of the riding buckle he had just been ridden, and his heart was in a mess, and he had a feeling that the six gods had no master.

The DJ at the scene lost his voice, the cheering of the audience was also a lot smaller, and the momentum of the pioneers dropped sharply.

Roy felt the change in momentum immediately, he frowned, and encouraged the Trail Blazers as he walked: "It's us who are leading, don't worry, let's run!" Score this one. “

However, there are many things in this world that are unpredictable.

Just like the Trail Blazers were clearly ahead of the Timberwolves by as much as 11 points, but they were behind the Timberwolves in momentum, Roy's words could not be realized, and the Trail Blazers' offense was sniped, and Roy made a mistake at this time. He hoisted the ball to Oden on the inside, wanting Oden to get back on the field, but he didn't expect Oden to be in a trance, and the ball was directly pressed down by Channingfry, who he had always bullied, and his face was disgraced.

The Timberwolves launch a fast break.

The Timberwolves-style fast attack, which is rare in this game, played it at the most critical time and had an effect.

Zheng Ke, Lowry, and Randy Foye made a three-line fast attack, and after guiding the ball, the frontcourt became a three-to-zero in the frontcourt. Generally, this kind of opportunity to brush up points, players like to leave it to Zheng Ke to complete, and this time is no exception.

Foyegao hit the board, Zheng Ke received the rebounding basketball, and the empty frame was filled.

9 points difference!

At this time, no one paid attention to the point difference, and the Timberwolves played their momentum, and McMillan only hesitated for a second before calling a timeout.

It was a timely timeout, at least for Oden. The Emperor didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out today, and his current state can be described in one sentence as "unintentional love war", and McMillan's pause just saved him from the dire situation.

It was a wonderful spectacle, with the Trail Blazers leading the way and the Timberwolves rejoicing.

There are times when the turning point of a game is an exhilarating dunk; Sometimes, the turning point of a game is a morale-boosting block; There are even times when a game's turning point is a crucial substitution. The Timberwolves took all three points.

At the end of the timeout, the cheerleaders who were dancing their white thighs jumped off the field.

The Trail Blazers replaced Aldridge and Pulzbilla, replaced Oden and Outlaw, and in this way, the lineup on the court was a lot taller than the Timberwolves.

However, the advantage of the lineup cannot bring qualitative changes to the Trail Blazers, and the emotional Timberwolves are the key to determining the victory or defeat of the Trail Blazers.

Lowry slipped to the bottom line to break through, pulled the backhand lever, and hit!

Channingfrye arc top empty three-pointer, hit!

Smith grabbed the rebound in the front court and gave it to Zheng Ke on the outside, Zheng Ke faked to shake Fernandez and leaned on him, two plus one!

The Trail Blazers' nine-point lead was erased four minutes later, and McMillan, sweating profusely, screamed another timeout in a hoarse voice. But a thought came out of my heart irrepressibly, should I be swept away?

What he can think of, the Trail Blazers players on the court can think of as well, including the fans on the court.

The atmosphere became even more oppressive for a while.

This huge advantage of thirteen points is smoothed out, and the Timberwolves in the fourth quarter danced wildly, as if they were suddenly beaten with chicken blood, becoming passionate and crazy.

Time continued to pass, and the Timberwolves' score gradually surpassed the Trail Blazers, and 6 minutes later, the Trail Blazers trailed the Timberwolves by 9 points, and there was only a little more than a minute left at this time.

It didn't take long for McMillan to replace all his main forces and surrender.

At the end of the game, Zheng Ke found Roy and Aldridge and gave them a huge hug, he really admired these two respectable opponents, although the Timberwolves were swept to advance, but the process was not easy, Roy and Aldridge caused a lot of trouble to the Timberwolves, and their spirit of not giving up and tenacity also impressed Zheng Ke.

So in an interview after the game, Zheng Ke first thanked his opponent Trail Blazers and thanked them for giving him a very difficult tempering. Second, Zheng praised his teammates, and the Timberwolves' unity and doing their part was a big reason to win this series. Finally, Zheng Ke said that no matter who the opponent is in the next round, the Timberwolves will go all out.

No one would have thought that the Trail Blazers would be reversed after leading so much at home, and no one would have thought that the Timberwolves, who had almost the same regular season record, would sweep the Trail Blazers, which is just a testament to the fact that the NBA is the place where miracles are born.

In this game, Zheng Ke scored 33 points and 8 rebounds in luxury data, so after this round of the series, Zheng Ke averaged 35.7 points, 8.9 rebounds and 8.1 assists per game, ranking first in the playoff MVP rankings, beating James and Howard.

The Timberwolves became the first team to sweep their opponents to advance in the playoffs, followed by the Magic and the Cavaliers, with the three teams leading to the second round. (To be continued......)
