A compilation of six of the NBA's greatest point guards!

Chapter 41: The Attention of Major General Managers, Zeng Zhen's Brutal Grand Finale Performanc

Zeng Zhen's strength is considered strong even in the NBA, and he would be even more capable playing in a lower-level college league.

It feels like those professional scorers wreaking havoc on the basketball court.

After completing the dunk, Zeng Zhen spread his arms and glided back to his own backcourt like a jet.

UCLA fans chanted Zeng Zhen's name, worshipping him as if he were a king.

Far away in Oklahoma City, watching Zeng Zhen on television, Supersonics General Manager Presti frowned deeply.

Zeng Zhen repeatedly shattered Presti's perception of him.

Initially, the SuperSonics had two first-round and three second-round rounds. Presti thought that, based on Hao Wei's opinion, the SuperSonics could defeat Zeng Zhen in just one second round.

Later, Zeng Zhen became more and more outstanding, and Presti felt that it was barely acceptable to use a late first-round pick to get Zeng Zhen.

However, Zeng Zhen is playing so fiercely in the semifinals and finals that the SuperSonics' second-round pick is clearly not enough. If the SuperSonics need to ensure that they select Zeng Zhen, they can only use their first-round pick.

The SuperSonics have one of the worst records in the league this year. If they're lucky, they can finish in the top three, but if they're unlucky, they'll be fourth or fifth.

It wasn't that Presti didn't want to draft a guard; rather, he originally intended to use that pick to select the incredibly talented Russell Westbrook.

He was caught in a deep dilemma, having to choose between the two options.

Between Westbrook and Zeng Zhen, whose future is better?

This draft requires players with strong potential to be converted into cash; simply picking a role player would be a bad move.

If we include the regular season, Westbrook is even more consistent. Westbrook's performance in both the regular season and March Madness was very consistent, averaging 10+5+5 per game. His talent is top-tier in college.

Zeng Zhen has good physical talent and athletic ability, but his regular season statistics are unbearable to look at.

However, Zeng Zhen's performance in March Madness was truly amazing!

What should I do?

Should we gamble?

"Fuck, only kids make choices!!"

After Presti cursed, he began to devise a crazy plan.

There are many general managers who are observing Zeng Zhen just like Presti.

Heat general manager Pat Riley, Warriors general manager Larry Riley, Pacers general manager Larry Bird, Knicks general manager Donnie Walsh, Bulls general manager John Patterson, Pistons general manager Joe Dumars, Timberwolves general manager David Kahn, and others watched the game from their offices or homes.

Zeng Zhen used an almost frenzied performance to knock on the doors of these general managers!

He seemed to be making a declaration to these people in front of the camera.

"You'll all regret it if you miss out on me!"

.....

"Double him up, don't let him score, fuck it!!" Coach Self started yelling. "Don't let him dunk so easily, foul him, foul him rather than let him dunk like that!"

Coach Self's meaning is very clear: the focus now is on Zeng Zhen. Increase the intensity, don't be too clean, and use some tricks!

Chamos and Rush both nodded, their attention inevitably drawn to Zeng Zhen on the other side.

The entire UCLA team is celebrating wildly around Zeng Zhen!

The pause ended shortly afterward.

The lead boosted the morale of the entire UCLA team, and after the game resumed, UCLA intensified their relentless defense once again.

The Kansas players found it increasingly difficult to advance the ball.

With 7 minutes and 12 seconds left in the game.

After Zeng Zhen got past Rush one-on-one, he suddenly stopped and tried to shoot mid-range, but Chalmers helped him and pounced on him!

"Bang!"

Chalmers' unorthodox defensive actions after losing position.

Zeng Zhen fell to the ground in mid-air!

"Beep!!"

The moment Zeng Zhen was fouled, the fans in the stadium gasped in surprise.

Chalmers' action was somewhat offensive, and the other UCLA players immediately erupted, leading to a standoff between the two sides.

The referee quickly intervened and stopped the game.

However, Zeng Zhen shook his hand after standing up and was not injured. The referee only gave Chamos a regular foul.

Chamos came over to Zeng Zhen to make it clear that he hadn't done it on purpose.

However, Zeng Zhen completely ignored Chalmers and went to take the free throw.

Just because I'm not injured doesn't mean I'm willing to accept your kindness.

This is a gamble on your future, and you're doomed to lose.

This moment!

The fans at the Alamo Stadium erupted in cheers.

Chamos's smile suddenly turned somewhat awkward; he had been trying to play the good guy.

Since that's the case, then I'll stop pretending.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Zeng Zhenwen made both free throws.

"Bill Self's team is in big trouble. They can't fundamentally solve Zeng Zhen's offense. Zeng Zhen is going after the Kansas defense with a brutal, system-destroying individual offensive performance."

"A guy like Zeng Zhen is definitely NBA starter level. He's just bullying a rookie who's a level below him."

"There are some players on the field whose future potential is no less than Zeng Zhen's, but they are too inexperienced in front of Zeng Zhen right now."

"Zeng Zhen is an extremely strong player who can contribute immediately. Any NBA team that drafts him will greatly enhance their offensive capabilities."

Commentator McBreen continued to promote Zeng Zhen to various NBA teams.

The match resumed.

Westbrook, Zeng Zhen, and even center Love continued to pressure Kansas to take possession of the ball.

Kansas's scoring was hard-fought, but as time went on, UCLA's relentless defense gradually weakened, and their energy reached its limit.

3 minutes 13 seconds.

The score was now 77-71, and the University of Kansas still had a glimmer of hope.

Westbrook dribbled past half-court and attempted to break past Chalmers on the right side.

However, Chalmers is very familiar with Westbrook's characteristics, which is to leave him a step away to prevent him from driving to the basket.

Westbrook couldn't break through, so he could only pass the ball to Mbah a Moute, but Mbah a Moute wasn't ready to receive it at that moment.

Jackson rushed out and intercepted the ball, then passed it to Chalmers.

Chalmers is about to retaliate!

Chalmers dribbled the ball on the right side and drove straight to the UCLA basket. If he made that shot, the score difference would be only 4 points.

Chalmers was determined to win!

Chalmers took the lead and rushed to the right three-point line, gathering the ball and starting his run to finish the game as quickly as possible.

But in the middle lane, Zeng Zhen chased back with lightning speed.

At the last moment of Chalmers' layup attempt.

"Bang!!"

Zeng Zhen arrived just as the basketball reached its highest point and delivered a spectacular block.

"Interference ball!!"

Coach Self was yelling from the sidelines, but the referees on the court determined it was a good block.

The game continued, and Westbrook returned to control the ball. This time, after dribbling across half-court, he threw the ball directly to Zeng Zhen, who had rushed back.

At this time, the University of Kansas had just switched from offense to defense, and their defensive system was not yet fully in place.

Zeng Zhen didn't hesitate at all. After receiving the pass, he raised his hand and fired from 1.5 meters outside the three-point line.

A sudden stop and a three-pointer!

The basketball traced a magnificent arc!

"Whoosh!!"

80:71.

"ever!!"

"ever!!!"

"Zeng... Zhen!!!"

Zeng Zhen raised his fist high, enjoying the jubilation of the fans at the Alamo Stadium!
