Chapter 6 The ultimate kill?

The referee whistle sounded, and Kassel stood on the free throw line and executed two free throws.

The Lakers replaced Grant and Med to compete for rebounds, and the Timberwolves also replaced center Johnson to ensure offensive rebounds.

In the first free throw, Kassel scored steadily, and the difference between the two teams reached 6 points.

In the second penalty, Chen Cheng stood behind him and shouted at the trash talk king who was not inferior to Payton.

"Hey Sam, you and Big Dogs and Ray didn't do it in Milwaukee, and you can't do it in Minnesota."

Kassel was stunned at first, and a subtle change appeared on his face.

He is famous for his big heart, but Chen Cheng's words can be said to have hit his heart.

Previously in Milwaukee, he and Robinson and Ray Allen formed the famous "Three Musketeers" combination. The group entered the Eastern Conference Finals in the first year. Unfortunately, they met Ai who "the gods descended to earth". The two teams fought for seven games, and the Bucks were finally defeated.

In the second season, the three men led the team with poor record and failed to score even in the playoffs. The three Musketeers seemed to be short-lived, and then they fell apart due to the conflict between the stars in the team.

Now, Kassel has arrived at the Timberwolves and has formed a brand new trio. Will the previous plot be staged again?

Kassel smiled, shook his head, chewing gum, and responded while slapping the ball, "Rookie, I know you are trying to affect me, but unfortunately I know trash talk better than you? I can stand here and say that it is different for three days and three nights, and say that you cry and hugged my legs and begged for mercy and call for dad."

He was anxious! Chen Cheng's goal was achieved.

Kassel said, adjusting his breathing and taking action. The ball flew towards the basket. The players under the basket were fiercely absent. Chen Cheng saw the opportunity and started from the outside.

If you want your opponent to not score a goal, you must first prepare for his goal that he cannot get.

The ball bounced twice on the basket's neck, rubbed the rebound, and fell down. Chen Cheng's prediction was fine. He rushed forward to grab the rebound, and the Timberwolves could only counterattack on the spot and caused a foul.

The referee whistle sounded, and this time, Chen Cheng stepped onto the free throw line.

Coach Sanders almost rushed to the center line in the field, holding his head with both hands, looking incredible.

Not only did the player fail to hit two free throws, but he also lost the rebound, and he also had to give the opponent two free throws. Who is the rookie?

He really misses Garnett very much now.

The Zen master called out a timeout, and the Lakers once again surrounded Chen Cheng, who was constantly surprised, and returned to the bench.

The Chinese audience, who had always dared not even be proud of their atmosphere, was able to breathe a long time during the advertising time, quickly lowered their heads and slaps a few bites of food, and did not forget to discuss the trend of the game with the people around them.

"You said if both of these goals were scored and the difference was 4 points, what would you do next? You can't play the 'penalty tactic' like the Spurs or Pistons? That's too boring."

"Impossible, Phil Jackson is not Popovich, but the difference in 4 points is that the ball is in the hands of the Timberwolves, so it is difficult to chase. The Timberwolves should have won this game. However, with this super-god performance, it will not be too much for Chen Cheng to play for the rest of his life."

"Why didn't you know that our country has such a number one basketball genius?"

"That's because you didn't pay attention. There was a childhood friend in my hometown who was in the same high school as him and sent me a text message saying that their school had a basketball genius. The admissions offices of Tsinghua and Peking University schools have been squatting at his doorstep for more than a week, and he is talking about it."

"This brother is OK. He went to the United States alone to participate in the talent show. His courage is commendable. From now on, I am an old fan of Chen Cheng. Whoever dares to criticize my compatriots will be criticized by Suiyuan. I will say this."

This suspension also bought some time for the students who were still rushing home.

"Cassel made one of two free throws, Chen Cheng grabbed the rebound, damn, Trent fouled him, Chen Cheng was going to make a free throw, the Lakers called for a timeout. You should pedal quickly, you can still catch up and watch the final battle. I would have known that I wouldn't be in your car." The person sitting in the back seat was complaining while reporting the game to the students around him in real time.

The Zen master arranged some tactics. If Chen Cheng scored both free throws or only scored one goal, he would continue to implement foul tactics and pressed on the spot. It would be best if it could cause the opponent's mistakes. Strictly prevent Kassel and Hoyborg.

If you fail to make two free throws and there is no need to make a foul, the players on the court can play freely.

The Lakers also replaced a smaller lineup with more mobility, with Grant playing the fifth position and Walton playing the fourth position. Fisher and Chen Cheng are still partnered on the outside, and Kareem Rush is replaced on the third position.

As Kobe's main substitute, Rush can get about 20 minutes of playing time per game with his stable shooting ability.

Before Chen Cheng appeared, Rush had already scored 9 points. He thought he could give himself some points in the next garbage time, but he didn't expect that this Chinese rookie would not be replaced again when he came on the court.

Not only did he occupy his playing time, but the limelight also obviously overshadowed himself.

Chen Cheng stood on the free throw line. He was already preparing to execute according to the tactics. When he glanced at Rush on the outside, he immediately had a new idea in his heart.

He dribbled at his own pace, and Cassel was at the side. This time, the big mouth of the "Alien" was like a flood gate, and began to gush trash talk.

However, he didn't understand Chen Cheng at all. He couldn't even spit a bunch of trash words, and could not affect Chen Cheng's mentality at all.

The first ball was steadily scored, and the difference reached 5 points.

On the second goal, Chen Cheng glanced at Rash and then looked at the bottom corner three-point line closest to him.

Rush was stunned.

Chen Cheng made a free throw, and the basketball hit the front of the ring accurately under his control. He jumped directly to grab the rebound. The Timberwolves player immediately stepped forward. Chen Cheng did not force the shot, but threw the ball to Rush, who was no longer guarded on the outside.

Rush finally understood Chen Cheng's intention, quickly adjusted his pace, retreated outside the three-point line, and took the ball and took a three-pointer directly.

He is worthy of being a pitcher. Although he has been resting for so long, his touch is still stable as soon as he comes on the court, and he hits the bull's-eye with a three-pointer.

Another wonderful four-pointer tactic.

The two teams have only 2 points left, and there are 17 seconds left.

The Timberwolves have no timeout available, and the Lakers have not called for a timeout either.

They are ready to defend themselves against the next wave. If it can cause the Pistons to make a mistake, it is best to get the ball. If it doesn't work, then implement another foul tactic.

The dawn of victory seemed to be right in front of you.

The 20-point lead collapsed, and the star player on the field was beaten up by a rookie, and the Timberwolves' players obviously had changed in their mentality.

The Lakers focus on guarding the receivers on the outside, and Johnson, who served, kept moving across the baseline to find gaps, but Med moved with him, hindering him.

The referee counted down the second, and when the five-second countdown came, Johnson barely threw the ball towards Kassel.

Kassel did not take advantage of the confrontation with Fisher, and his position was unstable. The ball slid out between his fingers, and everyone rushed to the basketball.

The scene was very chaotic for a while. Trent fell to the ground and grabbed the ball, and was immediately stabbed out by Chen Cheng. Time passed by minute by minute.

After several twists and turns, Rush finally grabbed the ball. With the last 5 seconds left, Rush held the ball at the forty-five-degree three-point line, and the Timberwolves immediately stepped forward to double-team.

Chen Cheng stood outside the bottom corner three-point line closest to him. If Rush scored the ball now, he would be confident that he would hit this final three-pointer and end the game.

He was ready to catch the ball, but he never expected that he had made the ball and assisted him before, but now his chance came out. He was so close to him, but Rush seemed to be unable to see him at all. Instead, he forced a three-pointer against Kassel and Hasel's double-team.

"Drip!" The bell rang in the end game, the basket lights were on, and Rush shot an air ball towards the two defenders.

The referee whistle sounded and the game ended. The Timberwolves narrowly defeated the Lakers 103:101 at home, and finally won the victory at their own home court.
