Chapter 4 Lore
The timeout ended and Du Zhe stepped onto the court again.

At this time, there was more than a minute left before the end of the game, the score was 138:139, and the Warriors were temporarily behind by one point.

However, encouraged by Du Zhe's desperate defense just now, the entire Warriors team is also united and imposing.

Warriors point guard Azubuike advanced quickly with the ball, while Du Zhe could only make up his mind on the offensive end, doing his best to pick and roll and run wildly according to the tactics.

I don't know if it's because Martin's physical strength has been exhausted, but Du Zhe actually ran out of an open space.

And his teammates also passed the ball in time.

To shoot or not to shoot...

In the CBA, Du Zhe mainly relies on his physical fitness to score at the basket, and shooting three-pointers is really not his strong point.

What's more, the NBA's three-point line is much farther than the CBA's, and he really doesn't have enough confidence.

After hesitating for a moment, he chose to break through a few steps inside, attracted a wave of defense, and then distributed the ball to his teammates.

"After we go back, we must practice three-pointers well..." Du Zhe made up his mind in his heart.

After all, 3D players are still very popular in the NBA, so even if the Warriors don't sign him, he won't have to worry about finding a next home.

Fortunately, his teammates were more powerful. After catching the ball, they actually hit 2+1 and tied the score to 141:139.

The game has come to a critical moment, and Kevin Martin, as the boss of the team, is unwilling to continue to sit on the sidelines.

More importantly, his competitive spirit did not allow him to leave a stain on his career night that he was locked up by a G League player.

After gesturing to his teammates, Martin ran forward without looking back.

Unfortunately, things were counterproductive. Du Zhe's defense followed him closely. Even if Martin received a pass from his teammate, he could not find a chance to take action.

But this time he learned the lesson, since he can't take advantage of Du Zhe's long arms, then don't blame him for showing another housekeeping skill.

That is - make a foul!
You must know that more than 50 of his 20 points today were scored by free throws.

As he spoke, Martin made an emergency stop while dribbling, and then made a mid-range jumper.

His shooting posture was already slightly forward, but now that he has the idea of ​​fouling, it is more obvious.

The average defensive player sticks so tightly, if he can't react in time, he will easily be fouled by a thug.

But Du Zhe is no ordinary defensive player now.

What's more, in his previous life, he also watched the balls of another "Porcelain King" who was more accomplished than Martin.

Du Zhe reacted in an instant, quickly adjusted his position, put his hands behind his back, and paid tribute to all the "back-hand gods" in his previous life.

The teammates on the field thought Du Zhe would inevitably end up with a foul, but they didn't expect this guy to do it suddenly.

Although they all feel powerless to complain, it is better than sending the opponent to the free throw line.

Firstly, Martin's physical strength was almost exhausted, and secondly, he wanted to draw a foul, which resulted in the serious deformation of the emergency stop jumper.

Unsurprisingly, his attack ended in blacksmithing.

It's a pity that the Warriors didn't seize the opportunity to widen the point difference, and their next attack also ended in a haphazard wave of shots.

This instead gave the Kings a chance to counterattack. Taking advantage of the Warriors' unsteady foothold, they stole two points through a simple counterattack.

Successfully brought the score back to 141:141.

At this time, there was not much time left on the court, and the head coach Nelson immediately called another timeout, preparing to arrange a lore tactic.

However, this has little to do with Du Zhe. His offensive methods are still too rough in the NBA, and he will definitely not be allowed to execute the decisive blow.

Nelson didn't force anyone to do anything, he just assigned him some simple pick-and-roll screening tasks.

As a famous coach of thousands of victories, the old Nelson still has experience in adapting to changing circumstances, making use of his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses.

The timeout was quickly over, with Warriors big man Ronnie Turiaf standing on the sideline ready to serve while Dudgel covered his teammate with a body pick-and-roll.

After receiving the ball, Ellis did not rush to attack. Instead, he dribbled the ball at the top of the key to consume time.

When the game time came to the last ten seconds, he finally started to start, ready to launch the final blow.

It's a pity that Ellis, who is the core of the Warriors on the field, has long been marked to death. He couldn't find a chance to make a shot, so he had to pass the ball to Morrow on the baseline.

After Morrow hurriedly took the ball a few steps, he could only force the ball.

"Bang!" The basketball bounced out of the frame.

According to the coach's arrangement, Du Zhe did not return to defense as quickly as before after his teammates took action, but went towards the basket.

At this time, the only two big men on the court-Turiaf of the Warriors and Jason Thompson of the Kings are entangled, both of which are preventing each other from grabbing rebounds.

And because Du Zhe never took a shot on the offensive end, and he was the first to return to defense after every attack, no one from the Kings players tried to block his position.

Even more fortunately, the iron ball just bounced in the direction of Du Zhe.

Compared with other players on the field, Du Zhe has a more obvious advantage in size.

After taking off and picking off the board, he firmly held the ball in his arms.

After landing, Du Zhe jumped up again without any hesitation, preparing to take advantage of the chaos to launch a second attack.

The defensive player in front of him is not in place yet, and the distance from the basket is not very far. Du Zhe is confident to score the ball.

It's a pity that the players of the Kings would not give him this chance, so they directly made a tactical foul and pulled him down.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity for the final fatal blow fell into his own hands.

Du Zhe had no time to think about it when he first attacked, but now he was standing on the free throw line. After calming down, he instantly felt a sense of pressure rushing towards him.

For the first time in the NBA game, he had to shoot a game-winning shot. Even if it was a free throw, the pressure really made Du Zhe a little out of breath.

"If you miss here, I'm afraid your career as an NBA player will be over..."

Du Zhe found that his hand holding the ball was trembling slightly.

As soon as the ball was released, he felt his wrist stiffen.

"Kang Dang!" The first ball was missed as expected, and the basket trembled.

Along with the basket trembling is the hearts of everyone in the Warriors...

After taking a deep breath, Du Zhe received the referee's pass again.

"Once I give up, the game is over, and my NBA journey is far from over!"

Although he may face the bleak reality, here now, Du Zhe doesn't want to give up.

A familiar figure seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and his courage seemed to return to him in an instant.

It was a bearded figure who was tireless, stood at the free throw line, and brought the team victory after victory.

"It's back...I feel like it's all coming back!"

Du Zhe decisively threw the second free throw, and the ball drew a graceful curve in the air and hit the net hollowly, as if by divine help.

With only three seconds left in the game, the Kings chose a technical timeout!
