one-handed ball

Chapter 333

"The goal has been scored!" A teenager beside the Thunder's home stands was wearing a Timberwolves white No. 17 jersey. He looked particularly eye-catching in the azure blue ocean.The boy was very excited at this time, and said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Look, father, I knew ZK would score this goal."

"Okay, okay." His father saw his son so happy, and he was grateful to Zheng Ke who gave them the tickets, although he still felt that his son's experience was a bit unbelievable.

Surrounded by Thunder fans, seeing the teenager cheering for the enemy, I was very upset, but fans have the right to make their own choices, and they have no right to interfere with the Oklahomans, so they must support the Thunder.

After Zheng Ke scored the goal, he turned around and gave Love a high-five to celebrate.

"Pretty spread!"

"It's okay!" Le Fu squinted his eyes, his beard curled up happily.

The Timberwolves scored a beautiful goal, but the Thunder will not surrender so easily.In terms of score, the Thunder has a slight advantage of 5 point 4 to 1.

This is the Thunder's offensive round.

Westbrook and Krstic played pick-and-roll cooperation. He dribbled the ball to find Billups' defensive gap because of the pick-and-roll, stretched out his hand to send the ball forward, and then strode to catch up, dribbling at an extremely fast speed.

For such a player, you can't let him rush up. Once he rushes up, it will be particularly difficult to defend.

For example, at the moment when he breaks through Pekovic, he turns three steps into two. He throws himself high into the air like a trapeze man, and after dodging a few times with the basketball in his arms, he completes a layup in flight.

With such a fast speed, this layup was still hit.

7:4.

This is Westbrook's ability, this ability to maintain a super high layup percentage at high speed, he plays rampage, although he lacks variety, he seems unstoppable.Some people like Westbrook, just like his style of play, brutal and domineering, unreasonable horizontally.

In the next two rounds, neither side scored.

Then Zheng Ke received Love's point and got one of the few open opportunities for a three-pointer outside the three-point line.Westbrook, who was originally defending Billups in the corner, rushed over.

Zheng Ke grabbed the ball and made a pass.

"Just wait for your moment!" Westbrook's reflexes were extremely fast, and he was prepared to jump on Zheng Ke's passing route, but found that Zheng Ke's basketball was still in his hands.

Zheng Ke looked at him playfully, and then unhurriedly made a jump shot from outside the three-point line.

At this time Jeff Green arrived slowly.

"Shh!"

7 to 7, the Timberwolves tied the score.

In the opening game, Zheng Ke scored 7 points in a row. His state is so good that people have reason to believe that Zheng Ke can still score more than 50 points in this game.

From the beginning of the season, people focused more on the Big Three in Miami, and now, the Timberwolves have become the focus of the world.Crazy performances like Zheng Ke's are rare. The ratings of the Timberwolves' recent games have skyrocketed, making advertisers overjoyed.And this matchup between the Thunder, the two youngest teams in the Western Conference, and the two most passionate teams, instantly attracted countless fans, even surpassing the game against the Knicks the day before yesterday.You know, New York is a big ball market, but the Thunder is just a small ball market.

Eye-catching games can always present exciting pictures.

In the middle of the first quarter, Westbrook forced Billups and rushed into the Timberwolves inside like a white lightning.

The overlord raised the tripod, and the battle ax smashed the buckle!
Like a stretched bow, Westbrook completed a horrific dunk on top of Love and Pekovic, accompanied by cheers all over the sky.

"Roar!"

The Ford Center exploded, and people worshiped this new generation of rising kings, roaring hoarsely, and even some fans fell into a brief dizziness because of the excitement of lack of oxygen.

Both Westbrook and Rose have exploded this season.When the Big Three were struggling, Rose was going to be the wind and the rain in the East.The average of 25+8 per game is even higher than that of Westbrook. Now when it comes to rookies in the 08 world, in addition to Love who followed Zheng Ke to win the championship, there are also these two violent point guards with unparalleled ability to rush to the basket .

"Speed, jumping, and strength are all excellent." Thibodeau secretly praised Westbrook's dunk. He likes this kind of point guard very much, and he can't wait to cultivate one himself.He looked at Lowry on the bench who was concentrating on watching the game, and he finally felt more balanced. "Although physical fitness can't be compared with Westbrook, Kyle (Lowry) is also a very good point guard."

The Timberwolves did not flinch from Westbrook's dunk on the field. Like Love and Pekovic, because of their limited jumping ability, they often see people flying around in front of him. Generally speaking, two Guys who add up to just 1 blocks per game are numb.

They have their own way of finding their way back.

For example, after coming back, the double pick-and-roll formed by Pekovic and Love was amazing. Billups dribbled the ball at a slow pace, still easily throwing off the energetic Westbrook, and then slipped into the paint.

"Bang!" "Swish!"

Billups was three steps slower and made a free layup.

"Dry!"

Westbrook, who came later, cursed and patted his palm bitterly.When he passed the pick-and-roll just now, someone made dumplings, so he was naturally unhappy.

The contest between the two teams in the first quarter was between the two teams.And Zheng Ke disappeared for a while after scoring 7 points in a row at the beginning. When the first quarter was about to end, he hit two mid-range jumpers and helped the Timberwolves establish a slight advantage of 2 points.

After the first quarter, the Timberwolves led 32 to 30 by 2 points.

"Hey!" Thibodeau sighed.The Timberwolves want to improve their defense is not something that happens overnight, especially when the team is in a high-speed sports battle, the round speed increases, and the defensive efficiency also drops a lot.He's struggling right now, because the Timberwolves have never lost a high-speed round like this, so he's not sure whether to let them slow down.

There are benefits to surrendering or not surrendering, and it is difficult for Thibodeau to choose.

However, Thibodeau was more surprised at the back.In his opinion, the Timberwolves' bench lineup is definitely the strongest in the league, but when the Thunder's bench lineup composed of Harden, Ibaka and Collison met the Timberwolves' bench lineup led by Lowry, they were able to stay together. wind.

"Did you miss it again?"

Thomas was also shocked, because he is the assistant coach who directly trains each player's defense. He knows the talents of the Timberwolves' substitutes best, but he didn't expect that this group of unknown Thunder substitutes would have such strength.

Especially the big man wearing No. 9, the timing of those few supplementary defenses just now was too good. If it was not trained by someone who is particularly good at this, but just relying on the intuition of the same talent as a beast, it would be really scary up!

"Snapped!"

Just as Thomas thought of this, Ibaka had already blocked the shot and slapped Lowry's high-arc throw.

This is a competition of talent, representing the best group of young people in the league.

Interestingly, the managers of both teams were shocked by the quality displayed by the opposing team.Although they are currently sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, they are already planning various offensive and defensive plans in their hearts.

"duo~~"

As the referee blew the whistle of Collison's thug foul, he took advantage of the opportunity to request an official timeout for the two teams. The referee is also a human being, and he needs to rest. If the two head coaches don't call a timeout, he will do it for him. .

The continuous climax of the audience also took advantage of this period of time to subside. From the start of the game to the present, the decibels of the noise they made have not decreased by a few points. "No wonder some teams say that Oklahoma is home to the Devils. Sure enough, the excellent home win rate this season is somewhat justified." Zheng Ke thought to himself.

After the long timeout, it is time for the main players of the two teams to play.

at this time--

The Timberwolves led the Thunder by 41 points 39 to 2, and there were more than 6 minutes left in the first half.

Zheng Ke walked onto the court fully dressed, walked to the position beyond the three-point line with the same pace, and stood still. As the team's small forward, he couldn't stand inside to grab rebounds when Lowry made free throws.

Lowry made the first free throw and hit!

Lowry took the second free throw. He patted the ball and lifted it as usual.

Seeing Lowry's second free throw, Zheng Ke's heart moved. Before Jeff Green could react, the acceleration started suddenly. No one saw how he started it. People's eyes were all on Lowry's free throw. above.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

The basketball hit the rim and bounced off the backboard, as if playing an inexplicable tune.

"Rebound!" Jeff Green had already reacted at this time, and shouted anxiously. He meant to remind the two insiders of the Thunder team to pay attention to the protection of rebounds, but when he said it, he only uttered a single word. .

"Bang!"

Zheng Ke descended from the sky, caught the rebound that happened to bounce in the air, and made a dunk!

He started from outside the three-point line, and then rushed in, like a master of internal skills who stepped into Wuhen, silently, without attracting anyone's attention.Thunder fans didn't realize it until Jeff Green's voice sounded, until Zheng Ke completed the dunk from heaven.

Someone cut off the beard!

"He moved ahead of time!" Durant was full of resentment towards Zheng Ke's ball. Just now he was happy and was about to accept the rebound that was delivered to his mouth, but Zheng Ke blew a strong wind from him. Passing by, the raised storm almost made him unable to open his eyes, and he couldn't look directly.

The referee listened to Durant's lawsuit, then hesitated for a second, and still made a valid penalty of 2 points!

"Pretty!"

Thibodeau clapped his hands and smiled.
