Duncan positioned himself on the left wing and waved to Parker, apparently asking for the ball.
"Sure enough, it still depends on Duncan at the critical moment...Hey, King took the initiative to switch defenses with Aldridge. Duncan is about to beat King in low singles. I think the Blazers will most likely not be double-teamed. A rare star duel is coming again."
When Parker was about to pass the ball, Wang Zelin used his strength to carry Duncan outwards. Duncan took a step sideways and successfully received the pass.
Just when he was about to hit him from behind, Wang Zelin suddenly withdrew halfway and took the initiative to let him go.
Yu Jia: "Let Duncan face the frame? This is a bit embarrassing. His most reasonable way of playing is to hit the board at a 45-degree angle, which is not Garnett's turnaround jumper!"
"..." Zhang Liyi said: "As for the style of play, if this was Garnett, he should have just turned around and pulled one out."
"Come on Tim, burn your anger completely and give me a buck!"
Wang Zelin half-bowed, spread out his hands, and spouted endless trash talk, trying his best to stir up Duncan's emotions.
"Then just watch out!"
Duncan just replied lightly, but Wang Zelin was secretly happy.
He is not afraid of his opponents quarreling with him, but what he is afraid of is that he can always remain silent.
Sure enough, you were still irritated by me. After all, you are not a machine without emotions.
After being beaten several times by the Trail Blazers, Duncan is very clear about the current situation of the Spurs. If no one on his side still steps up to respond, the team's situation will only get worse and worse, and the performance of other players will also get worse and worse.
Shi Fo's fighting spirit has been aroused: No matter what, I must score this goal!
The next moment, Duncan turned around, stuck out his butt, and began to beat Wang Zelin from a sitting position.
"Again? I'm so fucking annoyed!"
Wang Zelin cursed and began to use all his strength to resist Duncan. He raised his right hand high and put his left hand on Duncan's waist, starting a full defense mode.
"Bang!"
Duncan dribbled the ball, swayed left and right, and turned around to break through.
"Tim, one more!"
Some fans in the stands suddenly shouted.
"He wants a dunk?" Barkley yelled.
But no, although Wang Zelin's words moved Duncan, and he even said something back, Duncan knew very well that what the Spurs need most now is to score, and of course they can do it as easily as possible.
He's not the kind of player who dunks for the sake of dunking!
After shaking, Duncan suddenly turned around and jumped up.
"Turn around and shoot!"
Barkley yelled instinctively.
The moment Duncan took off, Wang Zelin jumped up and swung his right hand high.
He knew that Duncan would not choose to repay him because of the stimulation of words. If Duncan could not help but immediately return a dunk because of such a simple provocation, then he would not be Duncan.
Ten years of stability has made people marvel at the excellent mentality of Stone Buddha.
But everything has two sides, and as long as you make good use of it, you can turn it into a good thing and a bad thing.
During this defense, Wang Zelin concluded that Duncan would not be impulsive and would choose a more confident shot - shooting.
Duncan turned around and jumped up, and was met with a yellow arm.
"Snapped!"
The ball was slapped directly out of bounds.
"well!!!"
AT&T Arena recalls the disappointed sighs of Spurs fans.
This block caught Duncan off guard, and also made other teammates on the court hang their heads in disappointment.
When Duncan failed to score a goal, the Spurs' confidence and willpower began to visibly decline.
Who can save us?
"Hoo! Hoo..."
Duncan gasped, but felt great pressure inside.
To be honest, this was the first time he felt such unprecedented pressure from a rookie.
Even better than Stoudemire, the "little bully" during the Suns era, Duncan can also remain unmoved.
Because he knows very well that no matter how many points the opponent can score, the winner in the end will definitely be the Spurs.
Maybe even he didn't notice that his breathing became heavier involuntarily.
"Tim, do you remember what I told you more than once?"
As he spoke, a ferocious cold smile appeared on the corner of Wang Zelin's mouth.
"What?"
Duncan said subconsciously.
"You are old, no, not just you, but also No. 24 in Los Angeles. You are all too old. This league already belongs to young people!" Wang Zelin said.
"I'm old?"
Duncan's head seemed to have been hit hard, and he kept repeating this sentence in his mind.
But when he turned around and saw the expectant looks from his teammates, he said decisively: "We will win!"
"Haha!" Wang Zelin laughed loudly, as if he had heard a big joke.
But Duncan just clenched his fists and still repeated the words: "We will win!"
Wang Zelin said quietly: "Looking forward to your warriors attacking!"
"Click..."
The reporters outside the baseline were trembling with excitement, and the camera lenses in their hands kept flashing.
A sideline ball was sent and the Spurs attacked again.
"Hello!"
Under the basket, Wang Zelin suddenly shouted to Ginobili who was holding the ball.
What the hell is this kid doing?
Not only Ginobili, tens of thousands of people at the scene turned their attention to him.
After feeling all the stares from around him, Wang Zelin yelled at Ginobili: "Give it to him, give it to your boss, my duel with him is not over yet!"
Then, he waved his teammates to pull away: "Will, let him pass the ball!"
Ginobili's hand shook and he almost let go of the ball.
Wang Zelin's current momentum is too strong and too dazzling. As soon as these words came out, the Blazers players immediately dispersed. But what about the Spurs?
Ginobili and Tony Parker on the outside looked at each other, and then turned their attention to Duncan. The scene was extremely embarrassing...
Outside the stadium, the head coaches of both teams stood up and looked in the direction of Duncan/Wang Zelin. The atmosphere of the battle had been heightened to the extreme, and Duncan had to take it even if he didn't want to.
At this moment, people inside the arena and those watching the game on TV are waiting for Duncan's reply.
The silent stone Buddha moved, like Manu Ginobili stretched out his right hand.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Oh ho ho ho!!!!!!!!!"
Duncan's move caused the hottest cheers of the night to erupt inside the AT&T Arena. All Spurs fans stood up and Duncan, who was spontaneous, could cheer him up.
"Tim, educate that rookie!"
As one person speaks, thousands of people follow suit.
"Tim! Blast the opponent!"
All Spurs fans raised their fists and pointed unanimously in the direction of Trail Blazers No. 36 on the court.
At this moment, their eyes were filled with anger, and they were in urgent need of a vent!
"Snapped!"
Under the spotlight, Duncan caught the ball.
"e on!"
Wang Zelin shouted loudly, but the audience was instantly speechless.
The next second, all Spurs fans felt a sense of shame in their hearts. The voices of tens of thousands of them had been silenced by one person just now.
Immediately, waves of boos came like a tide.
"Bang!"
Duncan held the ball with his back arched and continued to hit Wang Zelin from a sitting position.
The latter exerted his strength and refused to give an inch.
Immediately afterwards, Duncan's movements changed, turning left to face the basket.
"Boss, beat up that arrogant guy!"
The Spurs players on the bench immediately got up.
Wang Zelin took a half step forward to prevent Duncan's underhand layup.
But as soon as he moved half a step, Duncan paused in his left turn, retracted his right foot, turned right, and jumped up with a side step.
"I knew you couldn't dunk!"
When Duncan changed his movements again, Wang Zelin's steps that he had just stepped forward suddenly shifted, and then he turned around, jumped forward and leaned forward, and thrust his right hand forward.
Almost at the same time, or at the moment when Duncan turned right to the outside, Wang Zelin quickly completed his turn and followed up.
Duncan's shot and Wang Zelin's block came together, and the result was...
"Snapped!"
There was another loud noise, and Wang Zelin pressed his palm directly on Duncan's upcoming shot.
The overbearing and terrifying power was transmitted from the ball to his wrist, and quickly spread throughout Duncan's body. His whole body was instantly unbalanced and he fell from the air.
"Bang!"
After landing, Duncan staggered and fell to the ground, with the ball in his hand already missing.
When I looked up, I saw that Pioneer No. 36 was firmly grasped in the palm of my right hand.
"Hatch! Oh my god! It's a catch..."
Through electronic devices, Yu Jia's commentary was carried back to the other side of the ocean and reached the ears of countless Chinese fans in front of the TV.
Capture?
It’s really a catch!
Duncan was actually captured by the king!
These sentences kept popping up in the minds of Chinese fans, and then sentence after sentence...
"Fuck!"
For a time, such a sound resounded across the land of China.
Native American.
AT&T Center.
"NO!!!"
The entire arena erupted with a huge sound of despair.
Various complex emotions such as loss, fear, and disbelief surged into their hearts, making everyone unable to believe the scene before them.
That's Tim Duncan!
Be a San Antonio hero!
However, when they looked over again, they suddenly discovered that the much talked about "No. 21 rookie" had some white hair on the back of his head.
Sure enough, time is the biggest enemy.
Even if that man's name is Tim Duncan, in the face of time, his outcome can only be defeat.
At this moment, many old fans began to shed tears in the corners of their eyes: Tim is still old.
"Wang did it! He has already got 5 blocks tonight. He killed Tim, killed the Spurs, and even killed the game with defense... Please forgive my words, it may be a bit too much for Spurs fans.
.But what I want to say more is that in the face of such a strong enemy, Tim really tried his best!"
O'Neal waved his fists excitedly at first, but then, his heart was filled with sympathy and regret.
They say heroes always cherish each other, and this is absolutely true.
O'Neal and Duncan have exactly this kind of relationship.
If you really want to evaluate an inside player who can compete with the peak O'Neal at the beginning of the century, that man is neither Wolf King Garnett, nor King Webber, or Spurs No. 21, the eternal backing of the Holy City-Tim Duncan!
Both belong to the Western Conference, the Lakers led by O'Neal and the Spurs led by Duncan have left indelible marks on that generation of fans more than once.
As we all know, sharks are proud.
Because his career has been so brilliant, he looks so much like a superhero in Mi Comics, maybe even Shuangwen Pig's Knuckle is not as good as him.
He was born as the number one scholar, and his debut is the pinnacle in the true sense!
Therefore, it is not easy to gain the respect of this big shark. It can even be said to be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
O'Neal is such a guy, but he recognizes Tim Duncan from the bottom of his heart. Later, during the Cavaliers period, he also called himself and Duncan the "Godfather of the East and the Godfather of the West!"
Later, he clearly expressed his meaning in the interview: "I can guarantee that there will not be a second Tim Duncan; I can also guarantee that there will not be a second Shaquille O'Neal. There has not been in the past and there will not be in the future.
Will do it again!”
At this moment, looking at Duncan sitting on the ground, looking slightly embarrassed and lonely, O'Neal also suppressed his smile, and his mind suddenly returned to his wandering around the league after the Heat.
Heroes are most afraid of old age!
O'Neal understands very well how Duncan feels at this time, because he has also experienced such a low period.
It was precisely because he had the same feeling that he could not tolerate his own weakness.
Finally, the short and direct retirement video of more than ten seconds appeared.
"Tim, at this moment, have you ever thought about giving up..."
O'Neal watched as he struggled to get up on the court, but could not catch up with Trail Blazers No. 36, and continued to fall silent.
"At this time, Zelin chose to dribble by himself! He was pushing forward crazily! No one from the Spurs dared to block, no one dared to stop...another dunk!"
Zhang Lili's passionate commentary rang in the ears of all the fans watching the game across the country, making them empathize and excited.
"boom!"
Another overbearing dunk, the basket was severely deformed.
At this moment, Wang Zelin used his defense and offense to completely defeat the Spurs' will to fight, thus establishing tonight's victory.
105:91. To be honest, the score is not too exaggerated. It is far lower than the average points per game of the Trail Blazers and Spurs this season.
But the audience who watched the whole game did not think it was a garbage game. On the contrary, they felt that tonight's game was worthy of the ticket price they paid.
Because they witnessed the rise of a young king with their own eyes, and at the same time, they seemed to see the aging of the king of the previous generation.
Although the Spurs team's will collapsed before halftime, the GDP trio still performed stably. Duncan scored 18 points, Parker scored 22 points, and Ginobili scored 19 points. The three scored 57 points together.
In addition, Leonard also performed very well, making 6 of 11 shots and contributing 15 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.
But they were still no match for the Portland Trail Blazers, who performed even more dazzlingly.
The first was Wang Zelin, who played 38 minutes and scored 35 points, 20 rebounds, 6 assists and a crazy 8 blocks.
At the end of the game, Wang Zelin did not get the quadruple-double that countless fans expected, but the 35-20 near-quadruple-double still made people sigh with emotion at the strength of this young center.
In addition, the other two "giants" of the Trail Blazers performed equally well.
Aldridge scored 22 points and 8 rebounds in 33 minutes, and Lillard scored 18 points and 11 assists in 31 minutes.
That night, Portland's Big Three scored a combined 75 points in San Antonio, and their performance completely crushed GDP.
A year later, the Trail Blazers won the Christmas Day game again.
