one-handed ball

Chapter 232 The first time in history

"Shh!"

Zheng Ke's eyes were full of determination, ignoring a group of Rockets fans behind the basketball hoop who were shaking their clothes and using all kinds of strange shapes to interfere with him, and steadily made free throws into the basket.

The Timberwolves lead 91 to 81 by 10 points!
The Timberwolves led by 3 points with more than 10 minutes left in the game!This is definitely a point difference that makes the Rockets collapse.

Many Rockets fans at the scene showed disappointment on their faces, and even some female fans' tears were still rolling in their eyes.

There was a deathly silence on the Rockets' bench. Yao Ming gasped heavily and sat on the bench with his head down. He felt that every muscle in his body was sore, and his heart was already running at twice the speed.He is really tired. In order to defend the Timberwolves' fast-break counterattack, the Rockets have obviously fallen into the rhythm of the Timberwolves, which consumes a lot of his energy.

"The rocket is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered now, but what are we?" Zheng Kexing raised his hand, let everyone put their palms together, and roared loudly.

"Timberwolves!"

"What are we going to do?"

"Eat it!"

"Boom" the Timberwolves players let out a laugh and scattered in all directions, with unstoppable smiles on their faces.

The Timberwolves re-entered the stage. Zheng Ke walked in the middle. Billups, Afflalo, Love, and Anderson lined up on both sides of him. The picture of the five in a straight line was captured by the cameraman .He was so excited that he even thought of the name of the photo: Timberwolves and Five Tigers.

Zheng Ke leaned on his knees and looked down at Brooks as he advanced past halftime.

"It looks like we're going to speed up the pace."

He stared at Brooks' expression, and his heart moved, thinking that Brooks would make a quick shot for this ball, so he seemed to be able to
Brooks skillfully dribbled the ball under his crotch, exchanged the ball to his right hand, and before his teammates settled down, he made a wrong footstep, the strength of his calf muscles exploded, and he instantly changed his desire to kill at the basket.

"Call~"

The sneakers made close contact with the floor, making a harsh friction sound.

Brooks used his extremely low center of gravity and slightly better speed to get rid of Billups' defense. He captured a gap in the Timberwolves defensive formation and shuttled in without delay.

Brooks held the basketball in one hand and used a layup posture similar to Chang'e flying to the moon.

A dark shadow emerged from above Brooks' head.

Brooks didn't know it, but the players on the field, the coaches on the sidelines, and the fans in the stands all exclaimed in unison: "Be careful, Aaron!"

"Snapped!"

As soon as the basketball was released from Brooks' hands, Zheng Ke stretched out his big yellow hand, like a predator that had been dormant for a long time, stretching out its sharpest fangs at this moment.

A chasing peg board block with amazing skills!

The bounced rebound was snatched by Billups behind him, the old guy turned around smartly, and began to rush to the frontcourt as hard as he could.

Before the Rockets had time to regret it, they retreated passively with the Timberwolves. Yao Ming stepped forward with two heavy thighs and rushed to the frontcourt with a "boom boom".

After reaching the front court, Billups stopped. After he cheated the Rockets players to run wildly for half the court, he stopped rushing to attack and retreated back to the center circle.

The Rockets players vomited blood tiredly, but Billups was leisurely on the perimeter. He completely controlled the rhythm of the audience.

Time passed by minute by minute, and when 24 seconds came, Zheng Kedou came out and took the ball from Billups, and directly shot a three-pointer from the outside!
Not in.

Although they didn't score, 24 seconds were consumed, and there were only a little more than two points left before the end of the game, and the Rockets were in jeopardy.

No one wants to fail, Plato said, the secret of success is to persist until the last minute.

The Rockets with good professional player qualities naturally understand this truth. They still try their best on the court, even if Yao Ming's legs are heavy like lead, even if McGrady's waist muscles are aching.
"They are respectable opponents!" Zheng Ke said in an interview with the media after the game: "I know Dayao. He is the No. [-] center in the NBA today, and his offensive power is comparable to any center in history. The style restrained him a bit, and our counterattack contained too much energy of the Rockets, thanks to the Rockets."

The Timberwolves successfully entered the finals.

The Timberwolves reached the finals for the first time in history. This was a magnitude 10 earthquake. No one would have expected that the Timberwolves who left Garnett would complete their transformation in less than 2 years, and this change was completely Changed the pattern of the alliance and had a great impact.

Barkley was the first to send a congratulatory message: "I knew he could do it a long time ago." "Nuclear weapon" ZK is a top small forward, and Chauncey Billups is also a top-five strength at the point guard position. Will Aaron Afflalo, rebound machine Kevin Love, inside beast "Birdman" Anderson, bench "Small Cannon" Lowry, shooter Mike Miller, Corey Brewer, Lan Di Foye and others have formed such a team of players with the strength of a championship, congratulations to the Timberwolves for entering the finals."

Not to mention the series in which the Timberwolves completed a reversal after falling behind 1-3, the fact that the Timberwolves reached the Finals for the first time in history is enough to drive fans in the Minnesota area crazy.

"What Garnett couldn't do!" This is the most popular sentence in the Minnesota area after the game.

Of course, some people praise and others criticize.

Not everyone thinks that the Timberwolves are well deserved to enter the Finals. Some experts wrote in the column: "It is accidental that the Timberwolves can enter the Finals. Whether it is the Trail Blazers, the Lakers or the Rockets, they all have their own shortcomings. For example, the weak flank defense of the Trail Blazers and the Lakers, the poor defense of the Lakers and the Rockets. The Rockets were obviously exhausted at the end of the series, and the Lakers were even more wronged. All in all, the Timberwolves' ability to enter the finals is a matter of luck rather than strength Therefore, I am optimistic that the Magic that successfully dealt with LeBron can win the O'Brien Cup."

Whether it is strength or luck, the Timberwolves entering the finals is a particularly unreal thing.It really awakened too quickly. Although it is not the first time this has happened in history, it is still a bit unacceptable in modern times.

At this moment, what people think of and talk about is whether the Timberwolves can win the championship.Zheng Ke, who was only 20 years old, made many fans in the West feel a bit of coolness. They traveled through time and space, as if they saw the scene of blood flowing into rivers and corpses in the future West, and the big devil in Minnesota is rising rapidly!
Zheng Ke's strength makes people feel horrible. At the same time, many other big city teams in the league have begun to undercurrent.After all, Minnesota is just a small city. Compared to Los Angeles, New York, and Miami, it is not far behind. And the Clippers, the Knicks, these struggling teams, the Lakers, the Heat, and other ambitious teams are starting to let's move.

What they thought of was that Zheng Ke was only 20 years old. How much judgment and resistance can young people of this age have?With the attractiveness of big cities and the unique advantages of funds, is it possible that such a young boy can't handle it?
It didn't take long for McHale's desk and Schwartz's mailbox to receive countless emails, all of which were nakedly seeking the possibility of Zheng Ke's transaction.

This made Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor terrified. Fearing that the cash cow would go away, he held an emergency meeting of the Timberwolves on the same day, and clarified the management core of Zheng Kefei's trading products.Then the next day, it revealed such an absolute business idea of ​​the Timberwolves to major newspapers.

Even so, there are still many teams that do not give up their pursuit of Zheng Ke, the most intense being the New York Knicks and the Miami Heat.The Knicks' pursuit of top stars has never stopped. From Kobe before, James to Zheng Ke now, they are always eager for top stars to save the team.The Heat's Pat Riley has been working on his "Big Three" plan, hoping to replicate the success of the Celtics.

The turmoil of the outside world has not had much impact on Zheng Ke. He has never planned to leave the Timberwolves. In his opinion, the Timberwolves have great development potential. The young people in the current team can help him in the future when they grow up. A great teammate to rule the West.And he has never had the concept of big cities and small cities. In his eyes, they are all foreign countries. What is the difference?In comparison, Minnesota's beautiful scenery and enthusiastic fans made it difficult for him to let go of the city where he has lived for two years.

His top priority now is to adjust his state and strive to show his best state on the stage of the finals.
