Chapter 372: Pertinence
There was silence in the arena at the center of the target, and then a tsunami of cheers erupted.
A few seconds ago, Zheng Kekong cut into the inside of the Bulls, and Noah came to block it desperately. Then Zheng Ke forcibly jumped, turned into a lightning bolt, and smashed the hoop with a thunderous momentum.
Zheng Ke in the air, leaning forward, half of his body exceeded the top of Noah's head, showing his amazing bounce power.
And Noah only felt that his eyes were dark, and an extremely majestic body leaned towards him like a golden mountain and a jade pillar, and he subconsciously closed his eyes. Then in the next second, a huge impact like a tide came from the place where the two of them touched, and his feet moved uncontrollably, "rubbing" backwards.
Zheng Ke jumped off the basket and enjoyed the cheers of the audience
With 29 seconds left in the final game, Zheng Ke once again added two points for the Timberwolves. And it was enough to get his fans excited for a night. From the moment he flew up, people had already expected the result, but when they really saw his domineering body leaking in the air, and the explosion-like split, they couldn't help but shudder in their hearts.
The fans' faces flushed, and they almost choked with excitement.
After the goal, Zheng Ke was also excited, he was surrounded by players from the crazy Timberwolves, and there was a familiar roar everywhere in his ears, "It's a dunk again, how did you do it!" "You still have the stamina? Oh my God, what kind of body is this! ”
On the other hand, the Bulls fans fell into a wail.
On the pitch they asked for a timeout. The players walked back to the bench in a dejected state. It's not just that I'm being segregated, it's that time is running out. The Timberwolves are still ten points ahead of them, which makes them feel a little depressed and sad with the goal of defeating the Timberwolves.
Coach Kurt Rambis was deeply concerned about this and kept shouting cheers in the hope of reviving the morale of his players.
The timeout was brief at the end of the game, and in order to deepen the excitement of the game, the NBA gave the team the right to decide whether to serve from the back court or the front court in the last two minutes of the game. Now that time is running out, the Bulls don't have the energy to spend on dribbling over the half.
So, what fans saw was Bulls small forward Rohr Deng standing on the sideline.
Zheng Ke opened his arms in front of Luo Erdeng. He lifted his foot from time to time, hoping to interfere with Rohrdeng's serve, and if he missed, it would be better.
The ball was sent out, and Rose received the basketball a little at the top of the arc.
"With a little more than 29 seconds left, the Bulls will definitely pick a quick two-pointer so they have one last chance to shoot if they miss the three-point shot. It's more dangerous for them, so it's our primary duty to protect the restricted area. Everyone now remembered in their minds what Thibodeau had told them just now.
Everyone looked at Rose, and sure enough, the formation of the Bulls faintly laid out a channel for him to smash the Yellow Dragon.
In a way, the Bulls are like the Timberwolves. It is also a single-core team. Just as everyone knows that 80% of the Timberwolves' ball will be handed over to Zheng Ke at the last moment, at the critical moment of the kill, Rose definitely exceeds 80% of the Bulls' shot possibilities.
So when Rose moved after holding the ball, the Timberwolves players were like sharks asking about the smell of fish. Quietly shrank the line of defense.
Sure enough, Rose dribbled quickly. Go straight to the basket from the pick-and-roll on the other side.
He opened his two thick thighs, listened to the wind whistling past his ears, and enjoyed the thrill of this rapid run, and at that moment, Billups beside him was completely ignored by him.
As soon as he lowered his head, a stuffy head accelerated, and he completely passed Billups.
Ross thought proudly, "Chauncey is still old after all. Although the strength is still there, all aspects of the body have declined, including flexibility, speed, explosiveness, and so on. I'm at my prime, and my physical ability has improved dramatically after two years of training, and I've been able to get past his defense with ease. ”
Without much thought, Rose went to the basket from the right, and at this moment, under the tactics arranged by Rambis, the basket was empty.
Rose slowed slightly, jumped up to the basket, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and placed it behind his head, looking like he was about to perform the two-handed dunk he was known for.
Suddenly, a black shadow rose in front of him, the black shadow was extremely fast, and it was tall, and a big hand in the air was infinitely close to the basketball in his hand.
"Who?"
Rose was taken aback at who could have the courage to jump on the front block after he had taken off. He doesn't believe that there are such players, even Zheng Ke, he doesn't think he has this strength. He was now in the air, and suddenly felt that he had been riding a tiger, and he couldn't advance or retreat.
In the next second, the big black hand pressed against his basketball, and a huge force was transmitted.
"Bang!"
The two collided in the air, and the man in one hand let out a loud shout and picked up the ball with all his might.
The change in force made Rose unable to rub his hands, and he could no longer control the basketball, so that the basketball was out of his hand in an instant and flew away to a high position.
"Who?"
After landing on the ground, a stumbling Rose was very annoyed, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Little Jordan?
"When will the person be replaced?" Rose didn't have time to think, the basketball in the air was about to fall, he was afraid of slapping his ass, and he was ready to jump up and grab the rebound.
"Mine!"
Zheng Ke waited for the opportunity, he had been waiting for this rebound for a long time.
Zheng Kechong's ability to grab rebounds is very strong, strong strength, excellent reactions, and top speed, so that he can appear in front of every rebounding ball flying in the air in an instant, and then in the amazed eyes of everyone, he can jump up calmly and easily sweep away.
Most of his rebounds are also from this source, and he can be called the last reaper of the Timberwolves' rebounds other than Love and Pekovic.
Zheng Ke, who was strong on the rebound, was very clear in his mind, sent the ball forward, and rushed to the front of everyone with an acceleration.
"Quick, quick, foul!" Rambis yelled, reminding the Bulls that it was time to use foul play.
There was no need for him to remind them, and the Bulls players had already reflected it, so Rose and Luo Erdeng followed closely behind Zheng Ke, like an eagle catching a chicken, trying to stretch out their arms as they ran.
There was a peculiar scene on the court, the Timberwolves leader Zheng Ke was carrying the basketball, and the Bulls players couldn't catch him.
Zheng Ke showed his strong ball control ability and wind-like speed, and even went around half a circle, and was caught by Rose and Rohrdeng when there was no space in the corner, and the two quickly fouled. With only 17 seconds left on the court, the Bulls are getting more and more dangerous.
Rose grimaceously watched as Zheng walked to the free throw line.
Zheng Ke has a free throw shooting rate of more than 90% this season, and is the most accurate player in the NBA.
The screams of the fans rang out at the scene, and the sound of "MVP" and "MVP" resounded throughout the target center.
"Phew!"
Zheng Ke pretended to spit on his hand and did the immortal method.
The referees watched speechlessly at the various strange free throws of these NBA stars. He has played hundreds of NBA games, seen countless kinds of free throw preludes, free throw actions, and basketball actions at the end, and actions like Zheng's actions can only be regarded as normal behavior.
After Zheng Ke received the ball, he aimed at the basket for two or three seconds, and then gently flicked it out.
The feel is soft and the action is standard.
The basketball crossed the most scientific arc, pierced through the heart from the most reasonable angle, and turned up the net flower under the basketball circle with a "swish".
"Beautiful!"
At that moment, it was as if Zheng Ke had thrown a killer ball, and the audience in the target center all raised their hands cooperatively, without prior drills, but they were all in unison.
The second penalty is also hit!
19 seconds, a difference of 5 points is already a very safe value.
After that, the Bulls took one last timeout, and Rambis finally opted for a three-point shot. Unfortunately, it was again mixed by Thibodeau. However, at this time, a fan knows that the Bulls only have the possibility of returning to the sky with three-point shooting tactics, which is a must proposition.
From beyond the three-point line, Rose missed a jumper.
It was Noah who forced the rebound in the frontcourt, and he looked to keep the last chance of the Bulls, and with a flick of the ball, he threw the ball into the hands of Rohr Deng on the outside, Deng Gan pulled out a jumper, and Zheng Ke bullied up.
"Bang!"
Zheng Ke's strong interference caused the basketball to be completely deflected, and this time the rebound was taken away by Billups, who held the basketball tightly in his arms with only the last 5 seconds left.
The Bulls made one final foul in vain, and Billups hit two of two free throws.
In the end, the Timberwolves defeated the Bulls 91-84 at home, and the difference reached 7 points, but the process was thrilling. It's rare for fans at the target center to see such a wonderful game, and you must know that the Timberwolves, who have averaged more than 10 points per game this season, have played most of the games in a one-sided situation.
Although the Bulls were defeated, they showed the determination of the Eastern team.
In the dire situation where the whole alliance is in a state of dire situation with the powerful Timberwolf bandit army, it is rare for such a desperate Saburo to emerge. This lets people know that the Timberwolves are not invincible even if they are tough, and strong defense and quick retreat can effectively limit the strengths of the Timberwolves.
So as the playoffs approach, most teams in the league have begun to focus on their team's targeted defense.
Teams like the Spurs, Lakers, and Heat, all aiming for the championship, regard the Timberwolves as their mortal enemies, and they all begin to use the Timberwolves and Zheng Ke as imaginary enemies in their usual tactical drills.
In this way, maybe in May or June, there will be a war in time. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. For mobile phone users, please go to m.qidian to read. )9
