Chapter 65 The Power Forward's Peak Showdown

Chapter 65 The Power Forward's Peak Showdown
In the end, Nesterovic was pulled up by his teammates.

Excuse me, Sister Li, basketball games are like this.

The side that performs brilliantly will always get immediate feedback from teammates, and if someone pays attention to the background board, the teammates are already very strong.

On the TNT commentary stand, Barkley began to shake his head, "Kenny, did you see that ball just now! I told you, Max's defense choice is definitely a decision made after reading the game!"

After two defensive blocks in a row, Kenny Smith didn't dare to continue no matter how tough his words were. He quickly changed sides and said, "Yes, let's watch this replay. Look, here it is!"

"The moment Divac went to help defend, Max activated." Smith paused the playback and amplified Lu Yuanzhi's movement. "Look, he started to exert strength at this time, rushed to the inside, and passed the ball to Garnett. The moment Nesterovic was there, he was already in the defensive position."

"It's unbelievable, a rookie, he actually judged Garnett's offensive options quickly in the blink of an eye."

"Yes," Barkley glanced at Smith. He didn't expect the wall to fall so quickly. "It was Max's timely return to defense that destroyed the Timberwolves' must-go offensive coordination."

"I'm afraid that the existence of Max will bring changes to the Kings beyond all of our imaginations."

On the court, Lu Yuanzhi and Nesterovic stood on both sides of the free throw line, Lu Yuanzhi stood inside and Nesterovic stood outside the free throw line.

Nesterovic was a head taller than Lu Yuanzhi, but he knew that he had no chance to win the jump.

Sure enough, after the referee threw the ball up, Lu Yuanzhi followed the basketball and flew into the air, while Nesterovic, well, he was trying to escape gravity.

Without any suspense, Lu Yuanzhi passed the ball to Divac who was standing under the basket, and then rushed forward.

Fast attack!Fast attack!
Everyone in the Timberwolves was prepared for Nesterovic not being able to grab the ball. Most of them retreated, but they only retreated to a position around halftime.

No one really wants to rush after seeing so many people standing in the backcourt!

Hey, there are!
The other four members of the Kings also started instantly and rushed towards the Timberwolves half court.

The Timberwolves' defense instantly became a mess.

Some players couldn't find anyone, some players were blocked by the Kings' off-ball screen in the process of chasing people, and Smith even ran into Szczerbiak head-on.

This is the charm of offensive and defensive transition.

Bibby shook off Billups, caught the ball and rushed inside, and shot a small throw, but at this moment, a black figure wearing the No. 21 jersey suddenly jumped up and touched the basketball with his fingers.

The ball was redirected, bounced a few times on the rim, and rolled out again.

It doesn't matter, Christie, who was following closely behind, quickly took off, grabbed the falling basketball, and prepared to make up the dunk.

But Garnett, No. 21 of the Timberwolves who had just landed, did not make any adjustments, and took off on the spot again. He raised his long arm high and slammed on the basketball.

"beep--"

The basketball flew out of the sideline and the Kings had the ball.

At the basket, Garnett successfully blocked the shots twice in a row, and roared with his head up!

Bastards, don't underestimate us!

With me at the basket, you don't want to score easily!

The Timberwolves' retreat was a bit chaotic, but Garnett was not chaotic at all. He had already stood at the basket and relied on his personal ability to directly resolve the Kings' two rounds of offense.

Seeing Garnett's performance, Lu Yuanzhi's eyelids twitched. If he had gone to attack the basket just now, he might have been interfered by Garnett.

This man's defense is really unreasonable!
Garnett's performance was not over yet, and he seemed to be stimulated by Lu Yuanzhi's block. After the ball was released, Bibby made a one-step jumper inside the three-point line, and was shot by Garnett who swept over.

Another block!
Lu Yuanzhi could see clearly that this shot was similar to the one he shot Billups, but it was farther away, and Garnett released Webb more resolutely, moving towards Bibby earlier.

And Lu Yuanzhi also noticed a detail. When Garnett started to move, Smith on the weak side also started to rotate in the direction of Webber.

If Bibby realizes that Garnett is coming and passes the ball to Webber, it will likely be intercepted by Smith.

After Billups lost his defensive position, he rushed straight to Lu Yuanzhi without hesitation, filling the last loophole.

Difficult to deal with, really difficult to deal with, the Timberwolves have done such a good rotation on the perimeter defense, it is no wonder that the last game at home defeated the thriving Kings.

And the rotation of the Timberwolves is not easy to crack, because Garnett and Smith, two big men who are close to 210 cm, move very quickly, not as slow as ordinary big men.

The entire Timberwolves' three-point line is within their defense range.

Every Kings player who shoots has to worry about whether he will be blocked by Garnett and Smith after getting rid of his defender.

The Kings, which wasted a lot of offensive time, failed to organize an effective attack. Finally, Christie forced a shot and missed.

The team's momentum gradually increased due to Lu Yuanzhi's wonderful block, but was also abruptly suppressed by Garnett's wonderful block.

The cheers of the fans at the scene stopped abruptly.

Next, both the Kings and Timberwolves showed strong defense capabilities. Although there were no blocks, every shooting player was greatly disturbed.

Many viewers who just turned on the TV, seeing this scene, almost suspected that they bought the wrong broadcast event. You tell this is the Kings playing the Timberwolves?

The dazzling and oppressive help defense, you tell me that these are two teams that have carved defense into their bones, I will not doubt it.

Especially the Kings, isn't it the most offensive team in the league?When did their defense become so good.

And that ubiquitous number 77, where did it come from?Fans who hadn't watched a Kings game for a while were confused.

When the Timberwolves players felt that the tactics had been successful and they got an open opportunity, he suddenly appeared outside the screen and blocked the only opening!
What a monster!
The stalemate lasted for nearly 2 minutes. Under the high-intensity defense, neither team scored.

In the next round, it was the Kings' turn to attack.

After trying a round of tactics without success, Chris Webber finally stood up and signaled everyone to pull away. He was going to single out Garnett.

Yes, what is a star player?

That's when all the normal tactics don't work, and then he'll stand up and yell, pull away and give me the damn ball!
Have you learned it, Jan?

James: Wade (Irving), this next ball is very important. I leave it to you. Come on!
Webb started playing back singles at a 45-degree angle outside the penalty area, digging in one after another.

Garnett felt the huge force coming from the opposite side, but he still gritted his teeth and resisted desperately.

Resisting it again, Garnett looked at his feet, he had stepped into the penalty area and could no longer retreat.

The next time the back hit came again, Garnett quickly tensed his body, and pushed his body towards Weber like the word "human".

"wrong!"

Weber's impact seemed powerful, but it was a false move. The moment he touched Garnett's body, Weber suddenly turned around and was about to rush towards the basket.

"Don't think about it!"

Although Garnett lost his support and staggered forward, he immediately stabilized his body with his strong core strength, turned to face the rebound, and prepared to intercept Weber's attack halfway to the basket.

But the next scene shocked everyone's jaws.

The moment Weber noticed that Garnett was coming back from the defense, he turned around again, returned to his original position, and then took a big step and turned towards the free throw line.

Just when everyone thought that Weber got rid of Garnett's defense and could shoot easily, Smith suddenly appeared and blocked Weber.

What a quick defense.

Garnett also took the opportunity to turn around and ran up with all his strength, and the two of them attacked.

Webber didn't panic at all, he dribbled the ball behind his back, then with a flick of his wrist, the ball hit the ground very stealthily and came to the empty inside lane.

The next moment, a player in a Kings white jersey appeared there. . .

 Dear brothers, if you think the book is still enough for you, please keep reading. Don’t keep reading, or something will happen if you keep reading.
