Chapter 143 Zheng Ke's Growth

"Hey, sir, he fouled!" Zheng Ke slapped his left hand with his right hand, turned around and complained to the referee who just turned a blind eye.

But the referee didn't buy it. He said seriously: "I'm not old and dim-sighted. I can see clearly. The 76ers hit the ball in your left hand just now. Please don't make trouble for no reason." He is the No. [-] character. If it is someone else, the referee will explain it.

Seeing that the referee insisted on the penalty, Zheng Ke turned back to the bench unhappily, where Whitman had already requested a timeout.

In the opening 3 minutes, Zheng Ke failed to score a point and even sent a turnover, which made the 76ers a fast break.Iguodala's iron-blooded defense made Zheng Ke feel very uncomfortable.

He suddenly understood why so many stars were overwhelmed by his own defense last season. It was really a turn of events, and he was immediately taken care of by top defenders.Iguodala has excellent physical fitness, strength, speed, and jumping are all at the top level among swingmen. What's even more frightening is that he has a willingness to defend. He is willing to fight Zheng Ke to the death and is willing to be a blue-collar player .

When they met the 76ers last season, the Timberwolves and Jefferson were there. The 76ers' defensive focus was on the 20+10 star in the interior. Even Iguodala often emptied Zheng Ke to help defend Jefferson. Now, The Timberwolves have only one core, and that is Zheng Ke. The last tragedy on the Colorado plateau sounded the alarm for Cheeks. In the past three days, the 76ers have evolved many defensive strategies to deal with Zheng Ke. Iguodala’s Defense is just the first line.

"How is it, Zheng, are you okay?" Whitman looked at the ugly Zheng Ke worriedly, and asked nervously.

"I'm fine, coach." Zheng Ke smiled reluctantly. Although the team was only 3 points behind, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zheng Ke was restricted, and the Timberwolves were actually at a disadvantage. Zheng Ke felt that he was dragging the ball down Team, full of bad taste.He looked up to Whitman and said, "Coach, take me off the field, I think I need to adjust."

As soon as the words came out, everyone around was surprised. Even Whitman didn't expect that Zheng Ke would say such a thing, but immediately, he became angry. He squatted down, put his hands on Zheng Ke's shoulders, and stared at Zheng Ke. Looking at Zheng Ke, he said in an unprecedented heavy tone:

"Listen, Zheng! You are our core and the soul of our team. I forbid you to say such evasive words!"

Zheng Ke looked at him blankly, a little at a loss.

Whitman continued: "You are the boss of the team. You are just a little out of shape now. Don't say you only missed one shot, let alone made one turnover. Even if you made zero out of ten shots and made five turnovers, you You should still be on the court. You know, as long as you are on the court, our team is still a fighting team, you understand?"

"Yes!" The teammates around echoed, and Billups persuaded: "It's only 3 minutes since the opening, and we don't know who will win. Cheer up!"

Zheng Ke suddenly felt warm in his heart, this is his team, this is his brothers, he felt that he was a bit too sissy just now, but it was just a little setback, because this game has been playing hard, That can only prove that your condition is not good, or your skills are not good enough. What you have to do is to strengthen training after the game and study skills hard, instead of choosing to escape like now!

After figuring this out, Zheng Ke’s gloom cleared away, he stood up from the bench again, and said, “You’re right, I was really a bit unstable just now, LeBron and Kobe never guarded me, I How could he be locked up by Andre!"

Zheng Ke thought of the Olympic Games, remembered the fights with Kobe and Anthony before, and experienced all the storms and waves, so how could he be afraid of this little whirlpool?He suddenly felt a burst of relief, as if a layer of shackles had been removed.

Seeing Zheng Ke, who was on the stage with great vigor, a big stone in Whitman's heart finally fell off.Zheng Ke’s depressed expression just now really frightened him. Fortunately, Zheng Ke survived. Whitman secretly said: Zheng’s age is actually only under 20 years old. His usual old-fashioned performance made everyone ignore his real age. Well, it seemed that he was really under a lot of pressure, but fortunately he understood just now, otherwise he would have been in big trouble.

The audience didn't know what happened on the bench, and they didn't know that the hero in their hearts almost gave up. After seeing the Timberwolves on the field, they gave the warmest applause.

"Give me the ball!"

Zheng Ke showed his arrogance, and the first ball after playing fell to the low post. He reached out to Billups, who was in possession of the ball, and motioned to give him the ball.

Billups smiled approvingly. Zheng Ke is indeed a good leader. He dared to face difficulties. His movements were not slow, and a high lob was accurately delivered to Zheng Ke's hands.

Everyone pulled away. The Timberwolves believed that Zheng Ke could succeed in singles. Similarly, the 76ers also believed in the defensive ability of team leader Iguodala, so no one went to double-team and settled down. After that, he stopped running and watched the duel between the two like a spectator for a while.

"Whoo~"

Zheng Ke let out a long breath, and then began to play singles with his back.

First, there was an [-]% force back impact, and then he slapped the basketball on the ground with his right hand, causing his whole body to shake slightly from side to side.Without waiting for Iguodala to react, he used his left foot as a pivot, took a big step with his right foot to the left, grabbed the basketball with both hands, turned around, jumped up in the air, and floated backward like catkins go.

Iguodala couldn't defend well enough, and when he jumped up, he was far behind Zheng Ke, but he didn't believe in evil in his heart. He was also a good player in fadeaway jumpers. He usually practiced for such a difficult fadeaway jumper. A 50.00% hit rate cannot be guaranteed, so he does not believe that Zheng Ke can make a shot.

But Zheng Ke's perfect shooting posture, firm eyes, and the clear sound of hitting the net at the end all told him that this ball will be thrown, and this ball has been thrown!

"it is good!"

The moment the basketball hit the net, Whitman jumped up excitedly. He took the lead in puffing up his palms for his disciple, and secretly said: "What a great little guy, he really made him practice the fadeaway jumper!" Coach, he knows that Zheng Ke has been worrying about the lack of his arsenal. A few days ago, he went to the team's reference room to get a lot of precious materials, saying that he was studying the fadeaway jumper. Now it seems that this action is not related to Joe There is a bit of resemblance to the gang leader.

Audience friends didn't think as much as Whitman did. They knew that the boss of their team came back and faced the boss of the opposing team and hit a "picturesque" fadeaway jumper. This is so exciting , the audience felt that their adrenaline secretion has accelerated a lot.Everyone clapped their hands vigorously and whistled.

Zheng Ke was also very excited. Facts have proved that after learning "internal strength" and then learning "movements", he will indeed gain a lot of advantages. He himself knows that his fadeaway jumper is not ready yet, and he just learned a similar shape. , he actually didn't understand all the things in it, but with the help of his 90 mid-range jumper, he finally hit a ball, and he was immediately happy.

8 to 9, the Timberwolves are still one point behind.

The offense of the two teams this round ended with iron strikes. Dalembert missed the inside attack, and the rebound was grabbed by the bright-eyed Love.Here, Billups also missed a mid-range shot from the outside line, and the rebound was grabbed by Dalembert. In fact, the two have similar rebounding ability today. Since the first quarter, they have been fighting for a tie.

After a short period of time, the two teams were inseparable. Zheng Ke was strictly guarded by Iguodala, and his shooting percentage was terrible. However, other Timberwolves players had a lot of opportunities. Smith completed a two-plus-one inside.

第一节最后还差3分钟，76人以18比17领先了森林狼队1分。

At this time, the 76ers made a mistake in offense. The old Miller passed the ball to Thaddeus Young, but was intercepted by the long-handed Brewer.

Immediately, the Timberwolves rushed to the field one by one as if they had killed wild wolves from the jungle.

Zheng Ke's speed of 95 was fully revealed at this moment. Almost instantly, he rushed to the front. Just after halftime, Billups was so bold that he threw the ball over with a long pass. Zheng Ke saw this The height of the arc was actually an alley-oop!

Before he had time to think about when Billups would pass the ball like this, Zheng Ke turned three steps into two steps, rushed in from the right, and then jumped up!

The distance of the long pass is still a bit far, and the strength is a little bit strong. Fortunately, Zheng Kesheng has a pair of big hands. He firmly grasped the basketball in the air. After flying for a certain distance, he poured his hands down suddenly and made a slamming sound. Loud bang!

The timing of the long pass is just right, and the awareness of running without the ball is top-notch
