Standing pretty old

Chapter 551 Timberwolves Unworthy of Sympathy
"Boom!"

Ruan Erniu successfully squeezed away Al Jefferson on the defensive end.

"Boom!"

In the next second, the Great Demon King of the Celestial Dynasty was wrapped in dumplings. Jefferson and Kevin Ai jointly attacked and pinned Er Niu in the narrow restricted area.

Kevin Ai hardly jumped much, just leaned forward lightly, and got the backboard.

Hello Kevin Love!

Ruan Erniu cursed secretly in his heart, before the start of the match, he looked like a scornful person, and he didn't give his senior any face when he came to the match, so he just teamed up with Jefferson, a gangster, to surround him.

Fortunately, the Timberwolves' counterattack was really slow enough. After Ruan Erniu slowly returned to halftime, neither Kevin Ai nor Jefferson had passed the halftime.

Ruan Erniu and Yuexiu immediately switched defenses, and Yuexiu threw himself out to defend Love, while Erniu took out Jefferson in the mid-range position.

Kevin Love is better than Er Niu in terms of three-point shooting, and this defensive strategy was also formulated by Woodson long before the game.

The Timberwolves also realized early in the morning that they had no chance to play a fast break, so Telfair, who was open, sent the ball to Jefferson.

When Al Jefferson played against Yao Ming, he was often able to blow up the opponent every time, but it was not effective against Ruan Erniu, who could save and recover quickly.

After gouging his back twice, Jefferson didn't dare to force a shot, and immediately distributed the ball to Randy Foye. Foye has a strong body and made a decisive breakthrough.

This time, he crossed positions with Telfair and formed a misalignment with Bibby during the running. After receiving the ball, he immediately chose to go straight to the basket and passed Bibby with almost no effort.

Of course Ruan Erniu would not give him the chance to directly attack the basket.

"boom!"

The big hat was put on, and the basketball flew into the hands of Salmons. Salmons passed back the second bull, and the latter immediately started the "brilliant sprint" and rushed forward with the ball.

Timberwolves forward Ryan Gomez still tried to stop Ruan Erniu, but with a light bump, Gomez immediately lost his defensive position and fell to one side.

How could Kevin Ai and Jefferson's speed keep up with Er Niu's rhythm? After an acceleration, Ruan Er Niu flew up, dunked the basket with both arms, and scored his first point since the opening.

Although it is very difficult to grab an offensive rebound in a positional battle, it is not a big problem to win this Timberwolves. This team has obvious defensive flaws. When Kevin Love and Jefferson appear on the court at the same time At that time, his inside movement speed was too slow. For Er Niu and Lunar Eclipse, this was simply an opportunity to attack.

Kevin McHale, who just took the position of head coach, touched the back of his head depressedly.

He became the general manager of the Timberwolves in 1993, fired the head coach at the time in 2005, and took over the team himself, so firing Randy Whitman in 2008 is not his first time Take over the team.

The Celtics star, who built the Celtics' glory in the 80s with Larry Bird and Robert Parish, actually did not forget to give to his home team after leaving the Celtics. Contribute your own strength and think about it, why didn't Garnett go elsewhere, but went to the Celtics?
It would be surprising if McHale hadn't played a part in it!

The Huskies have been to the Timberwolves, this is undeniable.

But Marbury doesn't love Minnesota (he really doesn't love Minnesota, the contract given by the Timberwolves is not small, as mentioned above), Sprewell has to support his family (in fact, he thinks the contract is small), and Cassel missed his peak period. sick.

So when this team was most likely to be brilliant, it fell all the way. After bidding farewell to the playoffs for four consecutive seasons, it is about to usher in their fifth season of bidding farewell to the playoffs early.

In the future, McHale, who is called "refrigerator" by Tianchao fans, is now in a very different environment from the situation when he was first ordered in danger three years ago. His days in the Timberwolves may be numbered.

To put it in detail, the current Timberwolves still haven't figured out their own advantages. They could have played a beautiful team, but it's a pity that neither Whitman nor Refrigerator has such a coaching level.

After all, having Kevin Love and Jefferson at the same time will certainly have a little loophole on the defensive end, but the two's frame protection and rebounding ability can fully make up for this.

Coupled with the fact that the team has two big players who can stretch the inside line at the same time, as long as they find a good breakthrough player and add reasonable breakthrough points, they can form a good tactical system.

But judging from the current state, Refrigerator is simply following his "chicken soup teaching", playing various games, either giving the ball to Jefferson, or giving the ball to Love, or simply passing the ball to Randy *Foye go play.

what?
Pure prejudice?

No matter how bad an NBA team is, they also know how to move tactically?
too naive!

At this time, we should speak directly with the data. There is currently no team in the league with players averaging more than 5 assists per game. There are only two teams in total.

As for the team's assists, the Kings rely on the last afterglow of the Princeton system. At any rate, the team can still average 22.5 assists per game, but what about the Huskies?20.4 times per game!
Apart from other things, just talking about the execution of the guidance and delivery of the ball, the Huskies can slap the table and say to the other 29 teams in the league: "I am not targeting a certain team, I mean that everyone here is not as good as me. Rubbish!"

The Huskies did not lose unjustly. Even if they still have a bit of a wolf in their bodies, they should understand the importance of unity and cooperation, instead of all kinds of singles with the ball on the court.

At 25:18, the Hawks' feel in the first quarter was also mediocre, otherwise they should have blown up their opponents in the first quarter.

However, Er Niu's data is a bit embarrassing. The data of 7 points and 2 rebounds is not like the style of the Chinese, and the two rebounds are backcourt rebounds.

For the first time since the start of the Super Rebounding King season, he failed to get offensive rebounds.

But the team is leading, so Hawks fans on the Internet are still relatively relaxed:

Someone joked: "Kraft lost his rebounding skill package, he should call the police immediately, the suspect is either Love or Jefferson."

Someone immediately retorted: "Nonsense, obviously J-Smoove did it. Didn't you see that he got 6 backcourt rebounds in a single quarter? They took them all from the hands of the Chinese."

"Upstairs!"

"J-Smoove doesn't want to mess around anymore, I bet he will be traded tomorrow!"

"Is it true that people from the Celestial Dynasty are tyrants in the locker room?"

"Screenshots from the sidelines prove it! On the bench, J-Smoove has already broken up with Kraft Ruan. Looking at the eyes of the two, a conflict is likely to erupt between the two sides. Well, J-Smoove is expected to be knocked out with a punch."

"Speak, no one cares about the life and death of the Timberwolves?"

"I think Joe Johnson has a nice haircut, league guy, I vote for him!"

"Someone just said something about the visiting team?"

"By the way, who will the Eagles fight tonight?"

"How about we still discuss the topic of 72 wins?"

"Anyway, Kraft Nguyen must not have more than 20 rebounds tonight, post this as proof!"

"Why didn't you say there were 10 upstairs, it's more exciting!"

"He didn't say why he lost, why is he so excited upstairs! Could it be..."

Timberwolves fans: "..."
