one-handed ball

Chapter 332 New Tactics

"The wind blows the egg shell, and the ball goes to the person's peace" has become the most popular saying on the Chinese Internet recently.

In addition to the ball, the netizen put everything else into this sentence. For example, about the weather, after the heavy snow, people went out of the house and said: "The wind blows the egg shell, and the snow goes to the person's peace", such as Regarding someone losing their wallet, I sighed: "The wind blows the egg shell, and the wealth goes to the person's peace."

Zheng Ke's influence on China is growing day by day.It's hard to imagine that an ordinary basketball player would have such an amazing influence.Especially in the hearts of teenagers and school students, Zheng Ke is their idol, and no matter what the idol does, it will be reflected in him.

As a public figure, Zheng Ke often flaunts himself by being well-dressed.

At least in front of the fans, he has to show his kind, humble and approachable side.In fact, it is to show the down-to-earth side of his character.

Giving away one or two tickets is at least a small matter for him, and it is useless for him to keep these tickets.

It’s just that Durant was such a delay. When Zheng Ke returned to the hotel, it was already past eleven o’clock. Thibodeau had arranged for the players to sleep, but he sat in the living room of the hotel and waited for Zheng Ke.

"Don't come back so late next time," Thibodeau said.

"Well, I know." Zheng Ke stuck out his tongue and squeezed a cold sweat.

"Come back so late, where did you go to play?" Thibodeau asked seemingly casually.

"I went to the street court for a while and saw a group of teenagers fighting. I even met a fan of mine. He looks so cute. I gave him two tickets." Zheng Ke told all the things like pouring beans .

But Thibodeau obviously lacked interest, and said bluntly: "What's so exciting about this, you have fans all over the world."

Thunder Arena Ford Center is a multipurpose arena in downtown Oklahoma City.

Like all NBA arenas, this arena is also used for concerts, ice shows, social events and more. In 08, the arena spent more than 1 million dollars on renovations and added a training arena.

As the evening approaches, fans have already entered the club hall one after another.

"There are so many blue jerseys in the regular season, it's the same as the playoffs." Zheng Ke was doing warm-up training on the court, watching the players walk in, and couldn't help complaining.

"Hey, they are going straight to the championship now. The home noise in this place ranks first in the league, even higher than ours!" Jordan looked at the aiming frame and threw the ball wide.
"If you practice the mid-range shot, you can get a ten-million-level contract. If you practice the three-pointer, Kevin (Love) can only help you in the future!" Zheng Ke looked at his hands. The stiff-looking little Jordan shook his head and said, "But you can't even make free throws well now. If you become the main player and someone else hits you, what will you do?"

"I, I." Little Jordan choked, unable to speak.

"So don't blame Thibodeau for using Pekovic as the starter. At least he's not bad at defense, he rebounds fiercely, and he is much better at free throws than you. It's only against certain opponents, such as Stoudemire the day before yesterday, that he will be a little bit It’s a bit harder, so you still have a long way to go if you want to start.” Zheng Ke looked at Jordan and said slowly.

Little Jordan was shocked by Zheng Ke's words.He has always thought that sooner or later he will be the starter of the Timberwolves, even Thomas said so when he trained him.But Thibodeau refused to let him serve as the starter. He even had a little dissatisfaction with Thibodeau in his heart. Now that Zheng Ke suddenly said this, he suddenly realized that if he really went on like this, how could he sign a big contract next year?Beautiful women, mansions, sports cars, do you just watch them leave?
Zheng Ke has long noticed that Jordan has been dancing a lot recently, and has always wanted to find time to beat him.

Although the warm-up before the game this time was a bit sudden, the two happened to be in the same position, and there were no other players within two feet of each other, so they blurted out these words immediately.

After saying it, he felt a little regretful, for fear that Jordan would not be able to bear it or become angry from embarrassment.But at present, it seems that Jordan is fine, and his fighting spirit has returned to his eyes.

"You're right, I must practice defense well and at the same time practice the basic skills of free throws!" Little Jordan solemnly swore his oath as if he had made a great wish.

"That's right!" Zheng Ke laughed loudly, clenched his fist and collided with Little Jordan.

When the referee came in, the audience had already found their seats and sat down.

Looking around, the ocean of blue jerseys is spectacular.

After the pre-match ceremony, the players from both sides greeted each other and walked onto the court.

Thunder starters: Westbrook, Sefolosha, Jeff Green, Durant, Krstic.Timberwolves starting: Billups, Afflalo, Zheng Ke, Love and Pekovic.

The Thunder had a lineup of one big and four small. Brooks seemed to know that Forest would continue their previous lineup. He chose a more mobile lineup, probably because he saw the madness of the Knicks in the third quarter of the last game.

Before the game, Coach Brooks also said: "The Timberwolves are in a hot state, especially Zheng Ke, who has scored more than 4 points in 50 consecutive games. In terms of scoring explosiveness, it is terrifying. But our Thunder is not a soft persimmon. We are competing fiercely. The Western Conference is ranked fifth. Last season, we almost agreed to the championship in the playoffs, which proves our strength, so the outcome of this game is unpredictable. We, sitting at home, will show the strongest strength."

The strongest strength is the lineup of fans who are full of blue as if they are in the playoffs.

The referee walked into the center circle.

Throw the ball, throw the ball, blow the whistle, let's start!
The Serbian and the Montenegrin jumped at the same time. They were the same floor players. Kostic, who was tall and long, was slightly better. He took the lead to dial the basketball and flew behind the Thunder.

It was Westbrook who grabbed the basketball. He was full of energy, and when he got the ball, he ran and advanced quickly, as if he didn't want to stay far away for a moment.

With Hot Wheels on his feet, Westbrook is extremely fast.

"Hey, attack?" Zheng Ke was taken aback. This kind of player who doesn't play cards according to common sense is very painful, and it is a powerful double-edged sword.

Billups obviously didn't expect Westbrook to change direction so much and start so fast.Compared with the boy two years ago, he is physically stronger, has better ball control, and has a higher degree of combination of man and ball.Billups is older and slower on his feet.

"Shh!"

Westbrook made a sudden stop, spread his legs, and hit a mid-range jumper.

"Damn, is this a jump shot?" Love cursed in his heart. Just now he saw "alumni" Westbrook suddenly stop and take off, and reached out to cover it. He found that the height of Westbrook's jump shot was too amazing. At this point, he had no hope of covering at all, and he didn't even cover anything.

The Thunder fans cheered and made noises all over the stadium. Putting it next to Zheng Ke's ears, they were even more enthusiastic than the fans in New York yesterday.

"Mountain people have a good voice!"

Such a sentence suddenly popped out of Zheng Ke's head, and then came out, followed by Love's pick-and-roll, and received a pass from Billups.

One move, one stop, one more move, Zheng Ke stunned Krstic with a simple change of rhythm, then circled the paint area and made a layup with a low hand.

hit!

2 to 2 draw.

Rotational defense, the Thunder's offensive opportunity.

Although Westbrook really wanted to make another one, his reason told him that the consequence of doing so would be to be replaced immediately.So he suppressed his speed and patiently commanded his teammates outside the three-point line.

The Thunder's running position is not complicated. After Durant played power forward, Love obviously couldn't keep up with his speed.He threw away Love's two positions, ran to the wing three-point line and received an early pass from Westbrook.

Unlike Westbrook's struggling to take off, Durant's takeoff height is not high, it feels like he has just stepped on his feet, but his shot speed is extremely fast, and it feels like the ball is already in the air as soon as he lifts it up.

"Shh!"

Hit a three-pointer. 5 to 2.

"Switch me to defend!" Zheng felt that something was wrong. Love's figure made it too inappropriate for him to play hide-and-seek with Durant all over the court. He made a decisive decision and asked Love for advice on switching defenses.

"Okay." Le Fu didn't say much, and nodded to express his understanding.

And Billups advanced past halftime at the moment.

The Timberwolves used the new tactics derived from Thibodeau.Although Thibodeau has been named a defensive master by the outside world, he still has the ability to arrange several sets of tactics in the offense. Like this set of tactics from Princeton, the core is for Love. Thibodeau likes Love's excellent passing ability. , Boldly design tactics, let him operate as the axis.

The arrow is still Zheng Ke.

Love made the free throw line as the axis, and Zheng Kekong cut and ran back.Love didn't turn his head, an extremely clever ground pass!
Zheng Ke caught it with both hands, and now it was Durant who was defending. Zheng Ke raised the ball with both hands and made a motion to shoot.Durant didn't have time to think, subconsciously flew up.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Ke was actually a fake move, making a big pull in the air with both hands, dodging Durant's block, and hitting the basket from the other side of the basket.

hit!

"Triangle offense? Princeton?"

The head coach of the Thunder, Brooks, frowned deeply. Durant had done a good job defending the ball just now, but Zheng Ke's personal ability was too strong, and he just hit two points with a big drawbar and a reverse basket.But Brooks sensed a hint of danger from Love's brilliant touchdown pass.

Each of these two well-known tactical systems in the history of basketball represents the rise of a generation of kingly teams.

If they can have such power just by learning from it, how strong should the Timberwolves be?
