one-handed ball

Chapter 244

Looking back on the history of the previous finals, there are not a few players who can shine, but it is still the performance of the stars of the two teams that ultimately determines the outcome of the game.

Zheng Ke also said before the game that this will be the last game of the season.

His determination and self-confidence determined his state in this game. As soon as the first quarter started, Zheng Ke was fully fired. Not only did he succeed in dunking, but he also hit consecutive backward jumpers in post-up singles.Under the control of Billups' rhythm, the Magic has always been passive, speeding up and slowing down in the rhythm of the Timberwolves.

单节结束的时候，郑克8投6中拿下了14分，森林狼也因此以29比25领先了4分，看上去魔术还能与森林狼一较高下。

Zheng Ke only rested for 3 minutes and reappeared. The thought of being able to win the O'Brien Cup made him feel full of strength. He asked Whitman to play.

When the audience saw Zheng Ke coming on stage, they immediately waved the plastic sticks in their hands and shouted Zheng Ke's name.

The hearts of the players of the Magic team are a little guilty. Zheng Ke's invincible performance in this round of the series has left a deep impression on the hearts of every Magic team player, just like the James he met in the last round. He won the series, but James' omnipotence is exactly the same as Zheng Ke now.

Almighty is the biggest label on the two people. In the past, people liked to compare James in the east and Kobe in the west. Now people prefer to compare James and Zheng Ke.The comparison of superstars is one of the most attractive aspects of the NBA. Who is strong and who is weak is a topic full of saliva.

For the Timberwolves players on the court, Zheng Ke's playing is equivalent to finding the backbone, and they naturally feel much more at ease in their hearts.

"give me."

Zheng Ke held Pietrus in a low position and opened his arms to ask for the ball.

After the Timberwolves players guided the ball a few times, Lowry hit the ground and passed the ball to Zheng Ke.Pietrus wanted to grab it, but found himself stuck behind Zheng Ke, unable to move.

After Zheng Ke took the ball, he observed the situation on the field. There were players from the Magic all over the place, vaguely intending to surround him, while the players from the Timberwolves were all over the perimeter, including the center of the Timberwolves, Channing Frye.

This is a tactic similar to the Magic, with Zheng Ke playing the role of Howard.

"Touch him, double-team him!" Big Van Gundy commanded remotely from outside the field, signaling the Magic team to double-team him.

After receiving the instructions, Alston immediately trotted forward, timidly preparing to grab Zheng Ke's basketball. After Zheng Ke saw it, he grabbed the basketball with one hand and made a motion of passing the ball out.

Alston was really fooled, he paused, and took a small step back subconsciously.

Zheng Ke showed a triumphant smile at the corner of his mouth, with his left foot as the axis, and his right foot rotated counterclockwise to the most suitable distance, and then exerted force on both feet, and his body leaned back.

It's a standard fadeaway jumper.

"Shh!"

It seems extremely difficult to lean back a lot; the big hand that blocks the sky and avoids the sun seems to be very defensive, but the fact is that Zheng Ke still hits the hit amidst the praise of countless people.

36 to 29, the Timberwolves lead by 7 points.

There are female fans in the auditorium who are nympho again: "Wow, Zheng Zhen is so handsome, look at his shooting posture, it is so elegant."

The male partner next to her had a different opinion: "I think this shot is beautiful, but what I like more is the moment when Zheng holds the ball and breaks through, as well as his earth-shattering dunk. It's really cool to watch."

But a male fan in front turned around and expressed his opinion. "I think the most enjoyable thing to watch Zheng Ke is his emergency stop jump shot after breaking through, which is too domineering and accurate!"

Today, Zheng Ke's offensive methods have gradually diversified, especially as an outsider, Zheng Ke's superb shooting skills are really a headache. He is not a shooter, but now he has a higher shooting percentage than many pitchers. So far in the game, the total shooting percentage has reached 50%, and the three-point shooting percentage has reached 42%, which is a very scary two data.

The Magic couldn’t defend against Zheng Ke, and the double-teaming was a bit slower, or if they didn’t cooperate well, Zheng Ke could think of a way to put the ball into the basket. The formation is full of loopholes.

From the middle of the second quarter, the Magic team had a faint tendency to collapse. Howard made two mistakes inside and was beaten into two counterattacks by the Timberwolves. Zheng Ke sent two assists in these two counterattacks, one was an assist for Bilu Puth made a chasing three-pointer, and the other assisted Love for a dunk.

The Timberwolves played more and more smoothly, leading the Magic 46 to 33. Van Gundy called two timeouts, but it didn't have much effect.

When the enthusiasm was high, the Timberwolves actually started a tight defense. With the cheers of the audience, the Timberwolves ended the first half with a huge advantage of 57 to 37.

People have already started cheering. With such a huge lead, the audience seemed to see the banner of the championship in the future.

In contrast, the Orlando Magic's deadly atmosphere in the away locker room at Target Center.Howard didn't speak. Bean-sized sweat oozed from his forehead, flowed down his cheeks, and fell to the ground. He breathed heavily, and felt exhausted physically.Not only physically, but also mentally exhausted, Howard had an ominous premonition in his heart, feeling that he might really kneel here this time.

Coach Van Gundy is a player who is good at boosting morale. He once encouraged the Magic players before the start of the finals, "We even suppressed James, let alone Zheng Ke?" At that time, the morale of the Magic players was once high.But the facts have proved that Zheng Ke and James are different. James is most powerful in his impact on the penalty area, while Zheng Ke is good at precise mid-range jumpers.

In the third quarter, the Timberwolves sent Zheng Ke, Lowry, Billups, Love and Channing Frye to the lineup.Anderson was burdened with four fouls, so he was off the field for a while.In this way, the Timberwolves' protection for the inside line is almost zero, but their offensive mobility has been greatly improved.

The two teams entered the stage of mutual explosion, and the Timberwolves' endless fast breaks made the audience hooked, although in many cases the Timberwolves just pushed the ball across the half court, and then turned into a positional attack waiting for someone to come.Channing Frye ran out obscenely and waited outside the three-point line, forcing Howard to come out as well, and the Magic's interior was suddenly empty.

Zheng Ke read this keenly. Without asking for the ball, he simply ran back and rushed to the basket of the Magic. Lowry was bold and gave an alley-oop directly.

Lewis and Zheng Ke took off together.

Zheng Ke knocked Lewis away in the air, turned one hand into two hands, straightened his back, and forced a slam dunk!

"boom!"

Lewis was knocked to the ground, looking a little embarrassed.He had a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, feeling that he might become tomorrow's background picture, but no one cares about him now, not even anyone who came to pull him over, so he got up depressed and patted Hui chased after him.

The Timberwolves led by 25 points and entered the fourth quarter, getting closer and closer to the championship trophy.

After playing for 5 minutes, the Magic still had no sign of recovering the score. Van Gundy replaced all the substitutes and announced his surrender.

At this point, the 08-09 season NBA championship is officially announced!
Minnesota Timberwolves!
