Chapter 647 Really Tough
Liu Han actually doesn't have a deep image of Garnett. Compared with what he experienced, those small disputes have actually become a thing of the past, and even Liu Han can't remember who Garnett is.

However, before the game started, Liu Han still remembered who Garnett was through the team's tactical explanation. Of course, he also carefully understood the player Nelson highlighted. After all, the core of the Timberwolves' offense and defense is now this player.

On November 2003, 11, the game between the Mavericks and the Timberwolves officially started at the American Airlines Center Arena.

The Timberwolves relied on Olowokandi's jump ball to win the first offense. Although the Mavericks' defense has improved compared to before, the zone defense still has certain limitations. They muster their strength and prepare to challenge Liu Han's Garnett. Relying on a high straight-arm jumper first gave the Timberwolves the lead.

Garnett was defended by Jamison. Jamison had a brilliant performance against the Nuggets in the last game, scoring 17 points and 11 rebounds, but he seemed a bit powerless against Garnett in this game. Yes, Garnett's physical condition is indeed much better than Jamison's. With his wingspan and straight-arm jumper, Jamison can't defend at all, even if Nowitzki is on the side to help him defend.

The Mavericks' offense is still the outside rotation. After Liu Han breaks through Cassel, he points the ball to Nowitzki at the top of the arc. Olowokandi's movement speed is too slow to prevent it. Nowitzki made a three-pointer but failed. But the bullet came out, Garnett stuck in position and wanted to grab the rebound, Liu Han made a dunk from the sky and scored the ball, and the Mavericks evened the score.

This ball made Garnett very depressed. Sprewell, who was defending Liu Han, had no intention of getting stuck. He let Liu Han suddenly start from the free throw point to make a dunk at the basket, and it was on top of Garnett's head. succeed.

Next, the Timberwolves' offense was still initiated by the inside, but the Mavericks suddenly changed their defensive style and adopted a man-to-man defense. Garnett got the ball and the Mavericks immediately double-teamed. Garnett made a strong attack and passed the ball to the outside. Well's three-pointer helped the Timberwolves regain the lead.

Not to be outdone, Liu Han shot a three-pointer directly from the three-point line through Sprewell's defense.

Both teams got off to a strong start, but the Mavericks' offense was more concise and effective, while the Timberwolves' offense was a little less stable.

In the following game, the Mavericks suddenly changed their style of play. Nowitzki attacked Olowokandi in a low position. Candy is tall and heavy enough, but his moving speed is worrying. Facing Nowitzki's backward shot, Olowokandi has few options. The Timberwolves had to double-team Nowitzki, but the rest of the Mavericks got a lot. Mobile phone opportunity.

Perhaps it was the back-to-back games that made the Mavericks players a little tired. Today they collectively felt bad. Both Odom and Aaron McGee missed open shots, so Liu Han had to hold the ball more to attack.

With 2 minutes left in the first quarter, the two teams scored 29 to 26, and the Timberwolves led by three points.

Nelson made adjustments first, Liu Han still led the substitutes and rookies on the field, and Nowitzki and others went off to rest.

The Timberwolves also made substitutions accordingly. They are also back to back, and they are in consecutive away games. The main players are actually quite tired.

After the adjustment of the lineup, Liu Han led the young Mavericks to a small climax in the last 2 minutes of the first quarter. A little distracted, Liu Han seized the opportunity to make consecutive steals.

At the end of the first quarter, the Mavericks overtook the Timberwolves by 4 points.

After the start of the second quarter, Dirk Nowitzki and others returned to the court, and Liu Han took a rest. The Mavericks maintained their ability to continue fighting, but the depth of the Timberwolves' bench was obviously not as good as that of the Mavericks. Their substitutes could not stand up to the Mavericks. With a mixed lineup, Nowitzki even played at an All-Star level, scoring consecutively in offense and even sending out two blocks in defense.

Since Olajuwon came to the Mavericks, the Mavericks' inside players have been well trained, including Dirk Nowitzki, Xue Yuyang, and even Bradley have grown a lot.

Nowitzki's grasp of timing has also made good progress, so now he can send out timely blocks in the game.

The Timberwolves had to replace the main players in advance. Garnett also saw it and was anxious. He really wanted to win this game and wanted to show his "toughness".

Liu Han returned to the court in the second half of the second quarter, and this time he had a direct dialogue with Garnett.

In an attack after the Mavericks extended the score to 16 points, Liu Han broke through with the ball. Cassel wanted to block Liu Han but his body couldn't keep up with the reaction. After all, he was 34 years old.

Liu Han rushed to the top of the arc and encountered Garnett's supplementary defense. Liu Han had already taken three steps. Garnett's timing was very precise, but after Liu Han's last jump, he leaned back and shot. Garnett relied on The arm span tightly covered Liu Han's shot space.

At this time, Liu Han really showed the strength of his top star. Even though his body was extremely tilted in the air, he still relied on his strong waist strength to extend his time in the air by a little bit. With this little bit of time, Liu Han slightly pressed the basketball in his hand to the back of his head, and then pushed the ball out with the shaking of his wrist. The basketball just skipped Garnett's fingertips and flew to the basket and went into the net. Liu Han scored a goal It was an incredible goal. He couldn't control his body and fell to the ground after the goal. The American Airlines Center Arena also cheered because of this goal. Cuban raised his arms like a wild cowboy call.

Garnett felt a trace of redness on his face. He didn't expect that he hadn't seen him for a few years. This Easterner was even better. He had reached his limit with this level of defense, and the next thing he could do was foul.

The Mavericks relied on Liu Han's goal to expand the point difference to 18 points. Sanders had to call a timeout to interrupt the Mavericks' gradual rise.

"It's great, Liu, the ball just now was great."

Back to the bench to welcome Liu Han is the teammate's chest bumps and high fives, Cuban even leaned over his seat to applaud Liu Han, and Anna also looked excited beside Cuban, she also likes to watch Let everyone present adore the person you love.

"Tough, we need a tougher defense, we can't let the opponent score like this, starting from defense, we are wolves, what we need is not cowardice, we need bloody battles."

On the Timberwolves' bench, Sanders sounded the battle horn.
