After a 2-1 tie, the Trail Blazers got off to a 3:0 start.
Since his rookie season, Wang Zelin has never seemed to need anyone to worry about him when it comes to free throws. This season, his free throw skills have improved to a higher level, with a hit rate of up to 90%, which makes many defenders feel ashamed.
The Spurs' offensive package.
Wang Zelin went directly to Duncan and started chatting again: "Tim, it's not too late for you to admit defeat now. Get off the field and rest as soon as possible. Don't waste everyone's time anymore."
But at this time, Duncan has fully devoted himself to the game and has restored his true character. His performance will no longer be affected by other factors.
At the top of the arc, as the Spurs' team scoring leader for three consecutive years, Parker chose to take the first goal himself. His teammates also trusted him and quickly opened up the space.
Lillard caught Parker's movement, clapped his hands loudly, and started shouting: "Come on! Come and hit me."
Good guy, this is probably the first time Parker has encountered such a request.
It has to be said that the environment can indeed affect a person's character development. If Lillard used to be a cold-faced male god, now under the influence of someone, he has begun to slowly become "bohemian".
Next, Parker responded to his opponent's clamor with his actual actions.
Just come!
I'm afraid you won't make it.
Parker lowered his body, dribbled the ball quickly to the left with his right hand, then quickly turned to the right, passed Lillard in a very smooth way, approached the penalty area, and threw high.
"Whoosh!"
The ball went in.
"Shet!"
Lillard looked back and cursed angrily. He was slapped in the face just as he pretended to be 13.
French little sports car, so damn smooth!
Although this was not the first time he saw Parker's signature turn and breakthrough, Wang Zelin was still a little surprised.
The breakthrough of this French sports car has never been as thrilling as the Windy City Rose, nor has it been the one-stop forceful overtaking of the Turtle. It doesn't even use much dribbling to change direction. It has always been so simple and plain.
Just like the holy city he is in, it seems ordinary, but in fact it is extremely powerful.
It seems like this guy is in good shape tonight!
Wang Zelin kept this in mind.
Trail Blazers offense.
Of course this time it will not be the same as the beginning, and the tactics will be implemented honestly.
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin caught the ball, arched Split once, and then instantly turned right and slid to the bottom.
Duncan reacted and immediately pounced from the left, completing the flanking attack with Split.
Faced with a double-team by two people, Wang Zelin calmly took the ball back to his waist, then hit the ground and passed it to the open Aldridge.
The latter caught the ball, jumped up outside the paint area, and shot nearly two points from zero angle.
"boom!"
Hit the board lightly.
5:2, the score difference is still 3 points.
"Wow! LaMarcus hit a two-point shot in front of Tim Duncan, as if to say, look, man, my rebounding skills are not any weaker than yours."
In the ESPN commentary box, Reggie Miller shouted in ridicule.
"But this kind of plain-water offensive method does not fit the label of the Blazers' youth army. Just now LaMarcus should have taken two more steps forward and dunked hard."
O'Neal became more and more excited as he spoke, even waving his fists.
Barkley teased: "It would be best for Tim to come over again and hit another 2-1, right?"
"That's right Charles, it's rare for us to have the same thoughts for a short time today."
After saying that, O'Neal jumped out of his seat excitedly, hugged Barkley's head and kissed him.
"Go away, stay away from me... Oh, my God, you definitely didn't rinse your mouth this morning..."
Buckley finished wiping the saliva on his round head with a look of disgust on his face.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
At this time, not only Reggie Miller, but also the staff in the studio couldn't help laughing.
This is the biggest reason why ESPN asked this pair to explain.
"Fight back! Fight back!"
As Aldridge scored, the Spurs fans at the scene immediately burst into loud cheers.
Spurs attack.
Parker pushed forward and made a gesture. Just after passing the center circle and still two steps away from the top of the arc, he suddenly shook his hand and the ball immediately flew to the left corner.
That location is...
Wang Zelin quickly realized that this was the hot spot where Danny Green was particularly good at scoring, and immediately pounced on it.
As soon as he turned around, he bumped directly into a wall of people.
"Fake! This big guy from China is so powerful!"
Split was hit and retreated repeatedly, but in the end he still blocked Wang Zelin.
Then……
I saw Danny Green raising his knife and falling.
"Whoosh!"
Three points of rain fell.
5:5 flat!
"This is the terrifying tacit understanding of the San Antonio Legion. Just because the Trail Blazers are a little slow to retreat, they can form a fatal loophole and carry out effective fire strikes!"
Zhang Lili's voice sounded.
"mine!"
Matthews stretched out his right hand guiltily.
"Don't be silly, we will return it right away."
Wang Zelin patted Matthews' butt and lowered his head to pick up the ball.
Trail Blazers offense.
This time, Aldridge brought it up to the top of the arc for a pick-and-roll. Lillard just took two steps forward, and his path was blocked by Duncan who switched defenses.
"here!"
At this time, Wang Zelin in the short corner on the left raised his hands and kept cutting towards the basket.
"restricted area!"
Tony Parker yelled.
Leonard, who was in the high post, immediately ran inside, trying to cut off the passing line.
Being left open, Batum certainly wouldn't stand on the three-point line and immediately run to the top of the key.
Seeing this, Lillard quickly shot the ball.
Batum caught the ball at the top of the arc and took a decisive shot.
Duang～
Unfortunately, the feel is not good, I tried blacksmithing for the first time today.
When Wang Zelin saw it, he immediately quickened his pace, got into position, and prepared to grab the rebound.
Duncan quickly returned to defend the basket, as did Leonard and Splitter.
The next moment, the fans saw a red figure surrounded by three white figures, jumping hard...
"Bang!"
In the boring muscle collision, Wang Zelin finally caught the ball first. Leonard sneaked in from behind and was ready to directly take out the ball after the opponent landed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Unfortunately, his plan came to nothing because...
"boom!"
Wang Zilin straightened his waist and abdomen in the air, exerted his strength again, firmly grasped the ball with his right hand, pressed it down fiercely, and completed a shocking make-up dunk.
"Beep!"
The whistle came to mind at this moment.
"NO!"
Simaweiji instantly jumped up from the coaching chair, hoping it wasn't what he thought.
Then he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the referee making a gesture to signal a foul to the Spurs' No. 22 thug.
Fortunately it’s not the 21st!
But as soon as he thought about it, not long after the game started, the power forward and the center were fouled one after another, and Simavic felt a toothache: It was all the fault of the damn No. 36.
"Shh!"
The referee's penalty once again angered the Spurs fans at the scene, and the sound of black whistles was endless.
This time the referee was very tough and did not go to the technical stand to watch the replay.
It's just once, just think of it as a favor to Tim Duncan. Why, you want to do it twice?
I don’t know what’s going on with me!
Duncan didn't watch the replay. He still felt a little scared after knowing that he was not the one who committed the foul.
As for Split, he was knocked out by Wang Zelin just now. He stood up with the support of many teammates, swearing.
He rushed over angrily and looked at Wang Zelin with a confused look on his face. He immediately lost his temper when he thought of the latter's combat prowess, which was renowned in the alliance.
After realizing that shouting a black whistle was useless, there was a lot of boos at the scene. Terry Stotts, who was beside my bed, showed a satisfied smile and put his hands to his mouth to act as a loudspeaker: "That's a good fight, that's it."
beat!"
Keep roaring, the louder you roar, the happier we will fight. Who are you following?
Standing on the free throw line, his ears filled with endless boos, Wang Zelin showed a contemptuous smile: "You are so humble? You really thought I was scared!"
"Whoosh!"
The next second, another penalty hit will be added.
At 8:5, the Spurs were 3 points behind at home.
At the Tianchao live broadcast.
Yu Jia: "Your Majesty is in a bit of a bad shape today!"
Zhang Lili expressed doubts: "Is it possible that the Trail Blazers are preparing to play superstar ball today?"
Yu Jia smiled: "A superstar is a superstar. In the current state of the king, who dares to say that he is not a superstar?"
"Haha! Same thing."
Zhang Lili also laughed out loud.
Spurs possession.
After being bumped by Wang Zelin like this, Split was a little scared and didn't dare to move closer to him.
Seeing that he didn't dare to come, Duncan had no choice but to go up on his own and found Trail Blazer No. 36.
This move happened to follow Wang Zelin's wish, and together with Duncan, they began a fierce and difficult physical collision.
Just kidding, a real man can never retreat at a time like this.
Tony Parker waited for a long time, but did not wait for Duncan to get a chance, so he simply drilled inside.
Wang Zelin made up for it in time when he got under the basket. Scenes of Wang Zelin grabbing the ball against the sky suddenly appeared in the French sports car's mind. He tightened his grip and quickly threw the ball out. Leonard saw the ball flying.
route and complete the station in advance.
"Whoosh!"
Catch the ball and hit the ball!
Needless to say, Leonard's performance in the draft was mediocre, and he was not as popular as the No. 1 pick in Europe, but he has actually made steady progress one step at a time.
In the new season, not only has the scoring average been stable at more than 12 points per game, but the efficiency is also extremely high. The overall field goal percentage has exceeded 50%, and the three-point shooting percentage has continued to remain stable at around 38%.
Although this guy's strength has not yet reached its peak, and he even became the king of the league for a time, he still cannot be underestimated... You really can't give him an open opportunity!
With a crisp sound, the ball equalized the Spurs' score, and huge cheers erupted from the scene.
However, when the camera was shown to Leonard, people discovered that this iceberg seemed to have no expression and was indifferent to everything around him, as if the player who just hit the equalizing three-pointer was not himself.
When seeing this scene, countless people not only complained: The Spurs really picked the most perfect successor, this expression management is even worse than the Stone Buddha.
Trail Blazers offense.
Lillard holds the ball on the right wing.
The ball is on the right side, and the Blazers' offensive focus also shifts to the right. Wang Zelin under the basket keeps moving in and out between the left and right wings in the low post.
On his left wing, Matthews squatting on the three-point line has been guarded by Danny Green.
At this time, Lillard broke through Tony Parker with a fake move, and then no longer hesitated, and with all his strength, he drove from the right side towards the paint area.
The Spurs' defensive position at this time was a three-two zone defense. The moment the outside line was exploded, Leonard, who was near the free throw line, immediately came down and prepared to intercept, while Splitter also stepped up from the outside of the right corner to cover.
Leonard first encountered Split, the first line of defense, quickly turned around, passed the latter like a top, and rushed towards Leonard, the second line of defense.
Leonard has gradually grown into the Spurs' strongest defense on the outside, relying not only on his excellent static physical fitness, but also on his excellent defensive sense and defensive habits.
Facing such a strong defensive player, Lillard turned around and did not get past the opponent.
As a result, he could only stop the ball on the spot and observe the position of his teammates.
Wang Zelin has reached the basket, and Duncan is struggling around him.
Just when Lillard turned around and failed to break through Leonard, Wang Zelin secretly elbowed Duncan away, then turned around and took two steps to the free throw line.
Lillard, who was in an awkward situation at this time, saw Wang Zelin's action and immediately distributed the ball.
"Snapped!"
The moment the goal was scored, Duncan had already pounced on him.
"Timely defense! Sure enough, Tim Duncan was not thrown away so easily. It depends on how Wang handles it."
Barkley's commentary sounded at the scene.
However, Wang Zelin didn't seem to see Duncan approaching and just raised the ball to take action.
"Alas, the king's action was a bit too hasty..."
Zhang Lili regretted.
How could it not be a pity that a rare strong showdown ended so hastily?
"No, it's not over yet," Yu Jia suddenly exclaimed, "It's not a shot!"
The camera returns to the field.
The moment Wang Zelin took action, Duncan jumped up subconsciously, but then he discovered that the point of the ball's release... was too high.
When he looked down again, Wang Zelin's figure was no longer in front of him.
"It's self-repair!"
The audience in the front row suddenly screamed in horror.
At this time, Trail Blazers No. 36 had already reached the basket, jumped high, caught the rebound of the basketball, and successfully dunked with both hands.
"grass!"
Zhang Lili directly made foul language.
Wang Zelin was really crazy today. He actually completed an extremely fancy self-throw dunk against a strong team like the Spurs, and the opponent was Tim Duncan.
Not only him, but the audience and Spurs players were all shocked.
What kind of naughty operation is this?
When did someone dare to play such a fancy trick on their heads... and then it was done.
"Oh, my god!"
In the ESPN live broadcast booth, such a stunning move made the three O'Neals open their mouths and began to praise God in unison.
"Beep!"
There was another whistle.
The Spurs fans were nervous. Could it be that someone committed another foul?
Don't do it, how could anyone break the rules with this kind of ball?
Taking a closer look, it turned out that it was Spurs head coach Smarovich who called timeout for the first time tonight.
If he continues like this, his nerves will almost snap.
