Chapter 511 [Iron-blooded Spirit, Parallel Champion]

The Timberwolves have had a magical season. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the middle of the game, head coach Philip Saunders was fired by management, and then, the team's general manager, Kevin McHale, who had never coached before, decided to take charge of the team on an interim basis.

Everyone thinks that the Timberwolves are going to be bad, but McHale actually led the team to a 19-12 record in the second half, took the last train of the playoffs, and got the opportunity to challenge the Lakers.

Now, Garnett is at home reading online reviews and hasn't slept well for two days in a row.

"Can Kobe Bryant score super high points in the playoffs and challenge Jordan's single-game scoring record?"

"In the face of parallel imports, will Yao Ming cut down super data?"

"The strongest Lakers in history against the Timberwolves 38 times, the disparity in strength between the two sides, Garnett is lonely, and the Lakers are expected to set a record for the largest point difference in NBA playoff history."

What is this? Working hard to make the playoffs, is it to set the opponent's record as a background?

What's even more depressing is that Garnett analyzed the lineups of the two teams and found that the Lakers are really likely to score record-breaking points, they don't have a hard time playing the Heat, and the Timberwolves' defense is not as good as the Heat.

On the 24th, the first match of the game was played in Los Angeles, and it was broadcast live on many local stations and CCTV5 in China.

When introducing the players, the commentators of several TV stations had the same expectation, that is, the Lakers star went all out to score, and only Minnesota TV hoped that Garnett would lead the Timberwolves to an upset victory.

If we can defeat the invincible Lakers and create the Black Eight Miracle, what a bloody thing it will be.

The NBA has never lacked hot-blooded players and hot-blooded teams, and Malone, Mourning, Kidd, Payton, Miller, Iverson and others have told everyone again and again with their tenacious fighting spirit that the one who has the last laugh is always the team with the thickest depth and the strongest strength.

Yang Rui must be the least enthusiastic among the coaches, he brought a backpack full of snacks and drinks, just like the elementary school students who were going to camp......

Lakers starters: Eddie Jones, Hojberg, Kobe, Rashid, Yao Ming.

Timberwolves starters: Troy Hudson, Trenton Hassell, Szczebiak, Garnett, Olavo Kandi.

Yao Ming jumped the ball and the game began.

Jones ran to the bottom left corner, Hojberg pulled away at 70 degrees on the left and Rashid drew Garnett at 70 degrees on the right, and the formation pulled away.

Olawokandi defended Yao Ming, Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming walked to the right side to the basket after blocking and dismantling, and they were very close to Olavokandi, who switched defenses, so that he could not reach out and break the basketball, but also had to follow.

Jordan is good at this style of play, Kobe Bryant has the essence, at this time Yao Ming cut to the basket, Kobe Bryant took it to the basket and half turned around, and passed to Yao Ming in the middle at close range.

Yao Ming completely squeezed out Hassel, who is 196cm tall and weighs 95kg, and after receiving the ball, he hit Olavokandi sideways under the basket, hooked his hand near the reasonable collision area, and easily hit two points. 2 to 0.

Yao Ming received the ball in this position, and the height advantage was huge, and Olawokandi couldn't block it at all, so he didn't have time to jump.

The Timberwolves attacked, Garnett blocked Hudson outside the three-point line, and the latter broke through with the ball on the left side, and found that the Lakers' formation shrank into the restricted area and distributed it to Garnett in the middle.

The formation of the Lakers is a joint defense, Kobe Bryant faced Garnett in the middle, Garnett played high, held the ball to observe the movement of his teammates, and gave it to the right side.

Olavokandi got rid of Hassel with an off-ball screen, who received the ball and made a one-step jumper from inside the three-point line, which missed the basket without interference.

Hassel is a blue-collar perimeter, a second-round rookie in 2001, characterized by hard work defensively, and the offense can't be compared to the "madman" Sprewell, with three-point support and unstable mid-range shooting. The Timberwolves, who have one less star, can enter the playoffs not because of their own strength, but because other teams are worse.

Yao Ming easily took the backcourt rebound and handed it to the Jones organization. went to the front court to receive the ball and played with Yao Ming to block and dismantle. This time, Olawokandi was a little slower to change defenses, Kobe Bryant changed direction and burst into the basket, and Hassel was also slow to chase the defense, watching Kobe score a layup. 4 to 0.

The Timberwolves attacked, playing high post blocking, and Hudson was fast enough to pass Hojborg. Yao Ming defended near the penalty area and did not go out. Hudson made a 45-degree pullup jump shot on the left side, deflected off the basket without interference, and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.

Hudson signed a six-year, $36 million contract with the Timberwolves, which expired in 2010, and it looked worth it at the time, as he averaged 14.2 points and 5.7 assists per game. As a result, his form immediately after signing was down, and the typical contract year exploded and then retired players.

Hudson's shooting has been extremely inconsistent, shooting just 40.1 percent from the field as a breakaway-oriented player.

Garnett had always hoped that the team would trade Hudson away, but without the team's want, the idea was obviously not on the basketball court.

He wears a pigtail on his head, and he usually looks like a hip-hop rap star. He formed his own band, which has three members, and has already released a chapter album.

The Lakers attacked, still blocking and dismantling in the high position, Kobe Bryant brought to the right side, Yao Ming did not have the space to cut, and stood outside the three-point line.

Bryant attracted Olawokandi and Hassel to wrap the ball and distributed the ball to the middle, Yao Ming received the ball and shot on tiptoe and hit a three-pointer. 7 to 0.

Zhang Li exclaimed: "Beautiful! Yao Ming really dared to shoot three points this year, and he really scored, which is more accurate than many outside lines in the league! ”

Yu Jia said with a smile: "In the regular season, Yao Ming made a total of 80 three-point shots and made 28 shots, with a shooting rate of 35%, which is a very good statistic for a center." Now that we're in the playoffs on the first shot, it's a good start. ”

Yao Mingyuan's shooting performance can't be compared with Rashid, the latter's shooting rate of 35.6% is similar to Yao Ming, but he throws a lot, hitting 104 in a single season, and Garnett didn't dare to let go of him to make up for Yao Ming.

The Timberwolves attacked, Hudson passed to Garnett, and Garnett singled out Kobe Bryant directly in the middle, which was a good mismatch opportunity. He dummered and pulled out, the shooting hand was raised very high, dodged the block, and the ball went in! 7 to 2.

Garnett thumped his chest and roared, instantly driving his teammates, and the morale of the whole team swished up.

Not only the fans at the Staples Center, but even some of the viewers in front of the television were infected by his iron spirit.

As some "hard secrets" say, Garnett's face shape and facial features are not at all what a black person should have, he has big eyes and a long face, a moderate forehead, a big mouth, a very straight nose, and looks full of energy.

Even if it was just an ordinary jump shot, Garnett's eyes were as cold as a blade, deep and deep, containing an infinite aura of a king. If he just waits for the time to come, he will explode like the Yangtze River, and the Lakers' two soft eggs will be inside the line, and he can slap him to death.

Yao Ming didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he played blocking and dismantling with Kobe, turned around and cut to the dangerous inside line, Kobe attracted Olawokandi to change the defense, moved a big step sideways on the right side, jumped up and passed the ball to the middle.

Yao Ming received the ball with both hands, squeezed Hassel and stepped into the basket, Olawokandi couldn't get back on guard, and could only watch Yao Ming score with both hands. 9 to 2.

Garnett continued to stare at Rashid on the perimeter, there was no penalty area, and Yao Ming bullied the "parallel champion" It was not a big deal, so he was very low-key when he returned to defense, and only clenched his right fist.

The Timberwolves attacked, Garnett received the ball after blocking and dismantling teammate Hudson in the middle, and Kobe Bryant had small movements in his close hand, making it difficult for him to turn around.

Garnett observed his teammate's movement and selflessly distributed the ball to 70 degrees on the right side, Szzczebiak faced Jones to catch the ball and shoot a three-point jumper, deflected the basket under a slight interference, and the rebound was picked up by Yao Ming.

Garnett gritted his teeth and defended back, his teammates' weakness made him feel helpless, no matter how strong his momentum was, it would be useless if his teammates couldn't shoot.
