Zhao Feiyang certainly disagreed with the referee's words.
However, he also knows very well that many of the penalties in the league are very strange, especially in some major games. Even local stars have been cheated a lot, not to mention the few in the league like him. There are not many yellow-skinned players.
Before Zhao Feiyang could respond, his teammates came over and pulled him back.
Head coach Norman Thomas even looked at Zhao Feiyang who was pulled back and comforted him, "Don't think about anything else first. I know that there was a suspected hitter on the ball just now, but we can't solve this problem now..."
"Come on! We don't have much time left, let's discuss how to execute the last attack..."
The Timberwolves' main players all gathered around head coach Norman.
How to arrange players at such a critical moment is of course a big problem. Zhao Feiyang, as the core of the team, also stepped up without hesitation.
"Coach, I can execute the last attack, I'm confident."
As soon as Zhao Feiyang finished speaking, Dwight Howard and Adrian Ennis on the side quickly spoke out in support.
"Coach, we also believe in Zhao."
"Yes, Zhao is definitely the team's strongest heart... If he is allowed to execute the last attack, I can do anything he needs..."
LaVine on the side also quickly expressed his position.
"I think so too, I can help him cover and attract the defensive attention of other players..."
When head coach Norman saw the players supporting Zhao Feiyang so much, he immediately said, "Of course the ball must be given to Zhao Feiyang, and I also believe in his strength... However, we must make emergency plans. ....."
"Zach, as the team's No. 2 contingency plan...if Zhao doesn't get the ball later, you can take the ball to the half court..."
"Andrew, you are contingency plan No. 3... We must ensure that we quickly advance the ball to the half-court, and at the same time protect the rebound. If the shot cannot be made, we must seize the rebound. If you have the chance to make it up, make it up..."
Beep.
The timer sounds.
The timeout ends and players from both sides return to the court.
At this time, the atmosphere in the stadium was already very warm, and countless fans stood up and waited for the last-minute performances of both sides. The moment the Warriors players walked onto the court, tens of thousands of Warriors fans cheered them on by chanting "Victory."
The decisive moment finally came.
The Timberwolves served, and the referee gave the ball to Adrian. As soon as he got the ball, players on both sides of the field started running quickly.
Of course, the Warriors didn't want Zhao Feiyang to catch the ball, so Curry and Thompson directly chose to double-team Zhao Feiyang, which left an opportunity for LaVine.
Seeing that Zhao Feiyang was unable to serve, Adrian made a prompt decision and threw the ball directly into LaVine's hands.
Snapped.
After getting the basketball, LaVine quickly rushed across the half court. Without any hesitation, he sprinted in before the Warriors players fully entered the paint.
Draymond Green was shocked when he saw LaVine missed, and rushed over to block LaVine's shot.
The two jumped up under the basket at the same time. LaVine found that Green was blocking his shot space and chose to delay his shot for half a beat. Before landing, he twisted his body into a twist to avoid Green's hand and throw the basketball.
Unfortunately, he failed to score this time.
boom.
The basketball hits the rim and pops out.
The scene was filled with exclamations of surprise.
Many Warriors fans couldn't contain their interest and cheered. In their view, once the Timberwolves fail to score this goal, the victory of the game must belong to the Warriors.
However, the next second, when the rebound flew out, Andrew Bogut pounced to catch the basketball, but Adrian jumped high in front of him and snatched the ball away in advance.
Adrian got the basketball without any hesitation. After landing, he glanced outside, glanced around and passed the ball directly to the familiar figure.
Zhao Feiyang, who had already rushed to the three-point line in the left corner, successfully received the basketball at this time.
The second before he jumped up and shot, Zhao Feiyang glanced at the timer. Without any hesitation, he lifted the basketball and threw the ball one step ahead without even completing the action.
Beep.
The sound of the timer going off is almost before and after the feet.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Feiyang and this key ball.
If Zhao Feiyang makes the shot, the Timberwolves will successfully eliminate the Warriors and advance to the finals. If Zhao Feiyang fails to make the shot, the Warriors will defeat the Timberwolves by 1 point and advance to the finals for the second consecutive year.
Uh-huh.
When the sound of the basketball hitting the net sounded, the fans in the entire arena couldn't help but scream.
"Oh! No!"
"This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"Wang Defa? We actually lost..."
The Warriors fans in the stands were extremely frustrated, and countless lonely voices followed. Obviously, this result was not what they hoped for, nor was it something they could accept immediately.
The Timberwolves' performance was completely different. From Zhao Feiyang to Zach LaVine, and every player on the bench, they shouted excitedly almost instantly.
"Won!"
"we won!"
"Fa Kewo...we really won!"
The Timberwolves players were so excited that the players on the bench rushed to the court and hugged the main players.
As the man who made the winning shot, Zhao Feiyang was excitedly carried by many of his teammates.
Zhao Feiyang couldn't restrain his excitement and kept waving his fists and shouting and roaring.
"Fuck! Win!"
"Finally won! Go to the Western Conference Finals with special numbers..."
At the same time, in Minneapolis, the moment Zhao Feiyang hit the winning shot, countless fans waiting outside the arena screamed wildly, cheered, or hugged each other to celebrate.
The whole city seemed to fall into madness in an instant.
The response from China on the other side of the ocean was equally strong. Many fans watching the live broadcast thought the Timberwolves were going to lose. However, Zhao Feiyang hit a winning three-pointer at the last minute, which made many fans in front of the screen explode.
"Fuck! Niubi!"
"Zhao Feiyang's real special code is awesome!"
"What I said...if the Timberwolves win, I will go out and run. I will do what I said, and my employer will go out tonight..."
In the management office of the Chinese Basketball Association, Yao Ming and a group of other senior national team members also showed excitement and gaffes.
"nice shot!"
"Won!"
"Zhao Feiyang did a great job!"
Yao Ming, who has always been steady, couldn't control his emotions. He stood up and banged his desk. If he hadn't felt the surprised eyes around him, he would have even planned to roar!
