The jersey with the giant number 22 fluttered in the wind, and Gibson hung from the hoop with a hideous and wild expression.

"Well done!" Zheng Ke let out a loud shout and high-fived him in celebration.

But the Spurs still look like they weren't the ones they were being held back for. Duncan picked up the basketball and silently walked under the basketball hoop, he pursed his mouth, his facial muscles stiffened, and reached out to pass the ball to Tony Parker, the "French sports car" who caught the ball on the baseline.

Watching the spur machine start running, Zheng Ke was slightly stunned and felt a little incredible. Even if the Timberwolves suffer such a dunk, there will always be ups and downs in their hearts, but the Spurs will not do this, and their mental quality seems to have reached a height, as if the entire Spurs went to college to study psychology.

"It's a terrifying team, like an army with a finger on its fingers." Zheng Ke secretly praised in his heart, but his body bent slightly, opened his arms, and began his defense like a wolf.

Parker dribbled across half court and reached for tactical instructions.

Jefferson understood and ran from near the 30-degree three-point line at the sideline to near the three-point line at the top of the arc, while Duncan, who followed him, ran to the other side near the high post to cover Gambos for a run-off ball.

"It's such a simple run, who do you want to shake off?" Afflaro was proud in his heart, and followed this dragon player Gambos, only to feel as if he was being underestimated.

But Gambo didn't do it all, he shook his body a bit, and then ran towards the bottom line. At this point, Parker came from the other side, and the little sports car took advantage of its excellent athleticism. Throwing off Billups a few positions, Duncan turned around, but he and Gambos formed a double cover in the high and low positions.

Parker, who received the basketball, quickly dribbled two steps inside. Attracted the Forest's heavy defense, at this time the Timberwolves formation has been chaotic, Gibson's inexperienced characteristics are infinitely amplified under Popovich's tactical system, Duncan is almost empty in the low post, Parker a simple through ball, Duncan starts on the spot, and simply plays the board. Easy into the frame.

During the whole process, Zheng Ke was pulled to the top of the arc, and his ability to assist in defense was completely let go by Popovich. Outside of the overall tactical system.

However, the Timberwolves didn't think it was any surprise, although Duncan easily scored two points, but in the eyes of everyone, the Spurs have always been like this. As for Gibson's dislocation. It is also seen as an occasional situation after the pick-and-roll, after all, after the NBA uses the pick-and-roll, many interior players will be out of position.

The game continues

The Spurs are solid as a rock, and the Timberwolves are as passionate as fire. When these two diametrically opposed teams meet each other, it's like Mars hitting Earth, giving people the feeling of ice and fire. The roars of the fans are expanding, and the rhythm of the court is constantly changing, enjoying the thrill of the intense playoffs. Feel the excitement of the collision of superstars

Zheng Ke rushed left and right, still with a strong impact.

"呲~"

The sneakers make a loud grinding sound on the floor. Zheng Ke's strong back muscles exploded, and he turned to crush Jefferson, and suddenly passed Jefferson's defense with his individual ability.

"Defense!"

At this time, Jefferson didn't care about face, and yelled at the Spurs inside with red eyes. But when he turned his head, he suddenly found that the Spurs were hindered up and down, and Gibson was unparalleled in his bravery, and he actually stuck Duncan, making him unable to move.

Zheng Ke took a strange step and took three steps!

"Boom!"

Zheng Ke grabbed the sky with one hand, and slammed the drums like a shocking slash.

He landed on his feet and fixed his eyes on Duncan. The eyes of the two met at that moment, and fierce sparks collided. The corners of Zheng Ke's mouth rose, tilted his head to look at the camera, and a feeling of looking at the world spontaneously appeared.

The surrounding audience gave the biggest cheer in cooperation: "MVP, MVP" is obviously not yet the free throw, but they can't wait to shout out what they have been prepared to call.

"The atmosphere in the target center is a little hot today!" Yu Jia's ears moved, and he seemed to hear the MVP screams coming from the screen.

"It's a real pack-out." Yang Yi touched his mustache, although he couldn't be biased like a fan as a guest, he still couldn't help but cheer for the Timberwolves: "It seems that the Timberwolves' offense has become smooth, and Zheng Ke is entering the state." The overlord's hard turn just now shows his ball control skills, physical strength and excellent explosiveness, which seems to be a simple action, but it is actually very difficult to defend. ”

Parker's movement is not large, but the speed is very fast, and the basketball control feels particularly solid in his hands. He and Duncan's pick-and-roll is very threatening, neither of them can be packed, and the wheel switch is a little too late, which is a real headache.

"Spurs are not easy to play!"

Whitman wiped the sweat from his head, feeling the difficulty of the Spurs in his heart. Unlike ordinary teams, although the Spurs record is only 50 wins, it gives people the feeling of a 60-win team, and now it feels that the Spurs are the seventh in the West, but they are playing the same as the first in the West.

"Huh!"

Jefferson finally stopped playing soy sauce and hit his first goal of the game. A three-pointer from the top of the arc!

Zheng Ke cursed in his heart, he just tried to leave a small step to make up for the defense, and immediately found an opportunity after taking over the Spurs, obviously he quickly retreated and successfully covered Jefferson's eyes, but this time this bright-headed bald guy turned out to be so determined and threw a beautiful hollow ball.

"Hell!"

Zheng Ke muttered, stepped out with one foot, lifted the other foot, and quickly sent the baseline ball.

Billups had possession of the ball past half court, and this time he held out a finger to give another tactical indication to the Timberwolves, and then beckoned his players to start running.

Billups and Pekovic combined at the top of the arc to block and pick and roll.

Billups is obviously 34 years old, but he is like a wise saying on the point guard line, the older he gets, the more demonic he becomes. Whether it's Nash or Kidd, the older generation of point guards proved that as long as they can stay healthy, they're still the best players in the league at the No. 1 position.

With Pekovic's pick-and-roll, Billups swooped left and right, shook off Parker and then slammed a cold arrow and hit a coquettish step-back jumper near the free-throw line area.

As the second leading point for the Timberwolves after Zheng Ke, Billups has an extremely high shooting percentage. Three-point shooting, in particular, reached 41 percent in the regular season, which is almost a statistic that many pure shooters struggle to achieve. So against the Timberwolves, a lot of teams will find it a little tricky, because the two people on their team who score the most points are always shooting highly.

Billups has been with the Pistons for so long, and he definitely doesn't just mean the numbers on the books for the Timberwolves. He was used as an assistant coach by Whitman in his regular training, and he and Afflalo often discussed what they learned, creating the best defensive partnership in the league on the back line.

The Timberwolves can have today's results, and Billups has a lot of credit.

But today, Billups also felt the trickiness of the Spurs. The Timberwolves always felt a little constrained when it came to their offensive operations, as if the Spurs were always able to make the best defensive options. And on the Timberwolves' defense, the Spurs have always been able to find holes in the Timberwolves' defense and score very easily.

Although the score on the field is extremely close at the moment, Billups has a bad feeling in his heart.

At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves led the Spurs by one point 24-23, and Zheng Ke was decent in this quarter, scoring 7 points and 2 rebounds.

The anxiety of the first quarter is like a microcosm of people's conjecture about the whole series. The Spurs are definitely not that easy to play against, and the trio of Duncan, Parker and Ginobili is a cornerstone of proving that they can win a championship. While experts are optimistic that the Timberwolves will win the entire series, they also believe that the Spurs can be embarrassed by the Timberwolves. They are not like the blind optimism of the fans, but they are crooked at the moment.

The second quarter was the stage for the benches, and the Argentines immediately traveled lightly.

When Zheng Ke first entered the NBA, he was amazed by Manu's bizarre breakthrough. The perfect sense of rhythm, the weird pace and the grasp of the most rearly shot. The European Step was carried forward by Ginobili in the NBA, and more and more guards like to use this trick to shake the pace from side to side, and he has gradually become the template and spokesperson of the European Step.

And Ginobili and the Spurs are also inseparable, as the best player to connect the first team and the second team, he controls the ball on the court, whether it is an individual attack or a team of attack, he is the world's first-class. It is no exaggeration to say that Ginobili occupies very little playing time and ball possession in the Spurs, and if he changes to a team that is a little worse, or a team that regards him as the first core, it is still very likely to get an average of 25+ per game, just like Harden who left the Thunder.

Generally speaking, the NBA test of physical fitness is mainly a test of explosiveness, speed, bounce, strength, etc., so the 22-year-old Ginobili was selected in the 57th pick in the second round, which was almost the most pick, even lower than Zheng Ke's draft pick, because after all, Zheng Ke participated in the draft but was only less than 19 years old, and he was honed by the NCAA, and he had the background of the Chinese market, to be able to be selected, thanks to this series of conditions.

Now Ginobili is riding well with the Spurs, winning many championships and becoming the best sixth man. The Spurs bench lineup he led was in no way inferior to the Timberwolves' bench lineup. Even after Popovich's special training, they still have the initiative on the field (to be continued......
