legendary point guard

The Golden State Warriors have missed the playoffs for 12 consecutive seasons, which is the longest record in NBA history. The pressure on Chris Mullin before the new season can be imagined.

In order for the team to break this embarrassing record, Chris Mullin fired last season's head coach Montgomery and invited the old Nelson who once coached the Warriors.

"Mad Scientist" Nelson, as the coach with the second most wins in history, although he has not led the team to win the O'Brien Cup, no one can deny his greatness.

His coaching style is very clear, and the offense is integrated into the blood of the team. This is exactly the case for the Warriors in the new season. The crazy offensive rhythm has left a deep impression on people.

Let people appreciate another offensive-oriented team outside of the Phoenix Suns.

As the leader of the Warriors, Baron Davis also got rid of the troubles of injuries in the new season. He averaged 23 points, 8 assists and 2.5 steals per game for the Warriors. He is one of the hottest players in the new season.

In the preseason, Baron Davis embarrassed Lin Sen. Many people who were looking forward to seeing Lin Sen's jokes could not wait for the start of the game.

On the morning of November 11th, ten hours before the evening game, the Timberwolves were training before the game.

Lin Sen passed the ball to Garnett inside, then quickly turned around and ran to the other side.

Jaric's well-timed screen freed Linson from Ricky Davis, and Garnett passed the ball immediately.

Lin Sen shot the ball as soon as he caught it, and the ball went into the basket cleanly.

"Crack! Crack! Well done, KG, you can go a little faster, Wood, can't you be a little closer or farther away?" Devon Casey shouted at the players on the field.

"This is a buy one get two meters free mid-range shot." Lin Sen joked.

"Wood, if you can treat your mid-range shot with such confidence, then I'd love to hear these terrible jokes from you every day."

Lin Sen gave Garnett a helpless look: "OK, kg, you have to trust me, one day I will practice this damn mid-range shooting well."

"Wish I could see that day," Garnett said with a smile.

When the morning training was over, Devin Casey once again organized the whole team to watch the video of the Warriors' game in the new season.

And Lin Sen was replaying the game against the Warriors in the preseason, which was Lin Sen's first setback.

Thinking about it now, Lin Sen could still recall how strong and powerful Baron Davis's big ass was that day.

At noon, the nba officially announced the most valuable player of the second week of the new season. Lin Sen, who was nominated in the first week, was nominated again, and Garnett was nominated for the second week of the Western Conference after being nominated in the first week. most valuable Player.

At the same time, the league officially announced the latest rookie rankings.

After Lin Sen ranked second in the first week of the regular season, he once again ranked second among rookies. Although this list is only a reference, it still caused strong dissatisfaction among Timberwolves fans and Lin Sen fans.

Ranked first is Brandon Roy of the Portland Trail Blazers, the No. 3 pick. The Trail Blazers' record of 4 wins and 5 losses in the new season is far inferior to the Timberwolves' 1 wins and [-] loss.

而且布兰顿·罗伊前七场比赛虽然能够贡献场均16.4分4个篮板4次助攻1次抢断的全面数据，但和林森场均22分以及13次助攻和4次抢断5个篮板的数据相比无疑差了很多。

So Timberwolves fans and Linsen fans lashed out at the official rankings for being unfair.

There are many objections on the nba official website message board——

"I think the head of the person who ranks this must be full of shit. Anyone can see that Wood is a hundred times stronger than Brandon."

"Wood is only ranked second? Does he think that Wood's data in each game is missing a decimal point? I think there is something wrong with my eyes or something wrong with the head of the bullshit expert who ranks."

……

Of course, there are voices of opposition and voices of support——

"His stats, yes, that's really good, just like a superstar's stats, but good stats don't mean that his strength can really match the stats, whether it's defense or offense, he's far inferior to Brandon outstanding."

"He has a player like Kevin Garnett who can help his teammates become better, but Brandon doesn't have it. Put Brandon in Minnesota. I believe Brandon can easily contribute 20+7+7 per game. super data."

"Wood is far worse than Brandon. He's better to practice his bad mid-range shooting. Oh, he'd better worry about his game tonight. BD will let him know how bad his defense is."

……

David Stern did not expect that a rookie ranking would cause quite a stir, which gave David Stern a pleasant surprise.

For David Stern, as long as it is beneficial to the league, nothing else matters. Lin Sen is also a sign of the future league that he is optimistic about, and Lin Sen's performance at the beginning of the new season is indeed outstanding, even far exceeding his expected.

So David Stern is happy to see these controversies, because controversies can bring more exposure.

Only constant exposure will be known to more people, and Lin Sen is obviously better than many people in this regard.

Coupled with Lin Sen's yellow skin, point guard position and pleasing style of play, it is destined that Lin Sen will be more popular after vigorous packaging and publicity.

Originally, the ordinary game between the Timberwolves and the Warriors, which was not considered a strong dialogue, received more attention.

However, Devin Casey and Kevin McHale were a little upset because McHale received a call about Chris Mullin on the day of the game.

On the phone, Chris Mullin directly expressed his thoughts on whether the Timberwolves can trade Linsen to the Warriors.

McHale told Mullin plainly that Linson was not for sale, but this did not dissuade the Warriors from coveting.

"Wood is a great little guy and I admire him very much. If I coach him, I will make him even better than he is now." Old Nelson said in an interview before the game.

This made Devin Casey explode in anger, and the old Nelson said in front of everyone that his coaching ability was lacking.

Devin Casey responded to the media with a smile: "Of course, he will make Wood better if he coaches Wood, but in my opinion, the better thing he said is that Wood's scoring will go straight to [-] points. Even if I win the scoring title, I don't doubt it, but one thing I believe is that Wood will be completely far away from the ranks of top players, because he will not teach Wood any defensive skills at all."

Nelson, who has been in the league for more than 20 years, didn't care about Devin Casey's counterattack at all: "Isn't the offense bad? He has an unparalleled offensive talent. In my opinion, they are killing him. At heart, I know he wants to attack more than pass the damn ball, and a good coach will make him better."

However, what was a little surprising was that Baron Davis didn't have any comments on Lin Sen, as usual.

"Bd's Confidence"-"San Francisco Chronicle" is even more prepared to use such a title after the Warriors' victory.

At eight o'clock in the evening on November 11th, Kevin Garnett and the handsome Latvian Biedrins stood in the middle circle and waited for the whistle to sound.

Lin Sen glanced at Baron Davis beside him, and concentrated on the ball in the referee's hand.

The game is about to start!
