NBA: I'm really the Chosen One

Chapter 15 Victory
73-72.

The German team did not choose to call a timeout.

"Are you crazy? How dare you make a three-pointer with this shot." Sean Marion and Li Zheng were clapping their hands in the interval of returning to defense. Just now, his heart was really in his throat, and he dared to make such a decisive shot when he was behind. The kid really wasn't the kind of soft guy who was as fierce as a tiger on the training ground and soft-footed in the competition.

But yes, that superb fighting skills, can tm be a serious student?Maybe he grew up in a Chinese gang. Maybe he was a high-level thug, just like the kung fu movies he watched.
Marion shook his head, ready to clear his mind of distracting thoughts, then he stared wide-eyed and watched the striker of the German team pass by him, and then he reacted, damn it!what am i doing!I have sinned!

"Beep, beep!" The referee blew the whistle decisively, and compared his hand to the German team's half, "The US team has the ball! Offensive foul!"

"What are you looking at? Come and help me." Li Zheng lay on the ground and looked at Marion with contempt. Odom didn't commit a crime today. Marion dared to lose his mind at such a critical moment. Fortunately, he predicted in advance. Overwhelmed the German team's running position, stood on the route of the opponent's breakthrough, and caused the traffic accident.

"Oh, here we come." Marion pulled Li Zheng up as if he had just woken up from a dream, and looked at Li Zheng gratefully. He was about to say something but was interrupted by Li Zheng in disgust.

"Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes." After Li Zheng finished speaking, he came to Nowitzki. Nowitzki put his elbow on Li Zheng's waist with disgust on his face, expressing his welcome to Li Zheng .

"Turn it up, Dirk?"

"To shut up!"

"Okay, Dirk, you can't catch the ball, Dirk."

".Fack, fack oil."

"It's so smart." Popovich praised, Li Zheng's delicate interspersed running position is not like a player who has never formally participated in the team's tactical training, and his teammates' running position, technical characteristics and shooting hot spots As if engraved in his mind, he is more suitable for organizing the team's offense than Iverson.

And that decisive three-pointer is to warn the German team that he has the ability to make three-pointers and punish them for emptying outside shooters.

The deeper meaning of the warning is that if he really continues to short, he really dares to shoot. He uses decisiveness and precision to minimize the pressure of double-teaming on the inside, loosen the ties for Duncan and the frame-rushing players, and Li Zheng made a shot. Immediately after that key three-pointer, Duncan was able to gain more space in the crowded interior and stand deeper in the penalty area.

As for the offensive foul. It can only be said that the color of the underpants of the German players was seen through by Li Zheng. Is this really only 19 years old?

Kidd, Duncan, Nash, Magician, Larry Bird. Popovich saw the style of many great players displayed on Li Zheng in just a few tens of seconds. He knew that this was not the limit of Li Zheng. Because as a young man, his greatest strength is his vigorous energy and almost unlimited physical strength.

"Fack, you bastard." Nowitzki swears in a rare voice. Li Zheng's defense sticks to him like a dog's skin plaster. It is infinitely compressed, and now it is better. The German team made a few pick-and-rolls, but Nowitzki still didn't have any chance to catch the ball.

"Don't be angry, Dirk, I love you." Li Zheng gasped and said, confronting Nowitzki is definitely an anaerobic exercise, the essence of defending around the front is to destroy opportunities, only faster frequency Only by running and blocking can we gain an advantage.

Because Nowitzki's height is here, as long as he pushes away Li Zheng, the defender can easily score with a lob. However, Li Zheng chose the method of half-circling forward, cutting off the German team with frequent and disorderly top defense and circling forward. The connection between the defender and Nowitzki, they tried to liberate, but the physically exhausted Nowitzki faced the energetic Li Zheng, the answer is self-evident.

If Nowitzki is at full strength, Li Zheng's defense will naturally be greatly reduced, but this is the game, using all factors to turn the advantage into a victory, this is the basketball style Li Zheng pursues.

"Nowitzki missed the ball! Lee intercepted the pass! Fast break! Pass to Anthony! Dunk! The US team showed their dominance at the end of the game! This suffocating offensive and defensive rhythm! The German team is in a desperate situation It's Larry Brown! It's Wonder Kid!" Matt Davis snarls, with the fervor of the most devoted Dream Team fan.

David Lynch hesitated to speak, is this guy really the one who almost made Li Zheng and Larry Brown worthless just now?Maybe I should quit TV commentary, Matt is more suitable for this line of work than myself.

Relaxed
The dream team players present had such a feeling in their minds. They couldn't believe it, but the fact was that it was the case. Li was on the court, and the game seemed to become easier.

Iverson no longer needs to organize those messy running positions, and Li Zheng's decisive and precise shooting has opened up space for him to break through; Sean Marion no longer needs to stand on the outside at a loss, he can wanton air cuts and pick-and-rolls , the ball in Li Zheng's hand will be passed to him comfortably, and he feels that the cooperation with Li Zheng is as smooth as the cooperation with Nash in Phoenix; Cisky's Li Zheng still has the strength to defend those damn three-point shooters when encountering pick-and-rolls. After liberation, Duncan is almost omnipotent inside.

Iverson even took the initiative to give the ball to Li Zheng from behind. Li Zheng stood near the free throw line like the axis of running the team. Duncan stepped forward to pick and roll and blocked Nowitzki firmly. After entering the inside line, the German team's center forward and striker subconsciously rushed towards Li Zheng, but Li Zheng had already thrown the ball high.

Air Relay!

Duncan slammed the basketball into the hoop, then roared and showed his muscles. After being pinched by the German team for the whole game, he finally vented his grievances.

Later, the American team became even more aggressive, playing better and more focused on the defensive end. The German team tried various methods but could not get rid of the heavy blockade set by Lee Zheng on Nowitzki. They reluctantly tried a few outside shots. After the three-pointer, one of four shots was made, and the game gradually lost its suspense.

84-75.

The German team was defeated by the US team with 14 consecutive points in the last minute and a half. Matt Davis exclaimed on the TV that Li Zheng is the combination of Larry Bird and Magician. David Lynch quickly interrupted Matt Davis, he's afraid other great names will continue to come out of this bullshit guy's mouth, and their show doesn't want to be the last.

Everyone stood on the field full of enthusiasm, and even forgot to celebrate.That's it?They haven't had a good time yet.
This is the happiest 2 minutes they played including the training camp and the main game. There is no reprimand from Larry Brown, no shouts to urge the defense, and there are only exquisite cooperation and neatness in performing their duties. This is the charm and fun of basketball.

They looked at the young man who hugged Nowitzki. The German team was excellent offensively and defensively. In the fourth quarter, they also faintly suppressed the American team, with 5 points, 1 steal and 1 block. Li Zheng's statistics are not gorgeous, but even if he does not I would like to admit it, but it was indeed Li Zheng's appearance that changed the trend of the entire game.

"Nice job." Duncan patted Li Zheng's head. Li Zheng struggled helplessly, but it was still difficult to escape from his clutches. Everyone in the Dream Six team celebrated happily. Li Zheng was touched and hugged by many people. Stoudemire forced a smile outside the crowd.

"Maybe we can have more changes." Larry Brown stood outside the crowd and said to Popovich.

"I thought you would say that you would never give him playing time again." Popovich made a joke. Larry Brown gave him a cold look. The handsome figure walked towards the locker room.

"Hello, is it convenient for us to be interviewed by German national television?"

"Hi, I'm a reporter from Huaguo Sports Channel."

"Li, I'm a reporter from USA Today! Accept our interview first!"

Li Zheng rejected the fanatical reporters with a smile, and chose to return to the locker room. The fanatical reporters lost their target and could only surround other Dream Team players.

Indeed, being interviewed here can give a lot of limelight and let more fans know about him, but I really don’t want to steal the fruits of victory from the players who have worked hard for the whole game after only playing for 2 minutes, but Li Zheng doesn’t know his performance It has already made the general managers of many teams eager to move, and next year's draft picks are gradually becoming non-sale items for each team.
