In the end, the Celtics defeated the 76ers 137-123, bringing the record to 58-19. Ranked first in the league.
The second-placed Bucks, who are four wins behind them, still have a chance to catch up. Of course, this probability is only a chance, almost impossible. For example, the Celtics lost all the games behind, and they won them all.
As for the Raptors and Warriors behind, they are even more behind, and even if something so outrageous happens, they can’t catch up.
It can be said that the Celtics were far ahead of other teams in the regular season.
There are 5 games left in the long regular season, and ten days are about to end.
Next up, the Celtics will travel to cold Minnesota to face the Timberwolves on the road.
By winning this game, the Celtics will also be able to lock in the “190” league first!
Along the way, the mentality of the whole team also seems to be very broadcast, in fact, in everyone’s hearts, this season is already the first in the league. After all, three of the next five games are underdogs, and two are hovering on the edge of the playoffs.
The crowd has also begun to adjust their mentality and prepare for the playoffs.
After arriving in Minnesota, the whole team checked into the hotel, and then Chen Xu led everyone to dinner together.
Now Chen Xu’s sneakers are selling very hot, bringing him nearly $4 million in income in just two months. That’s an average of $2 million a month. That’s about $24 million a year.
This is also based on the fact that Chen Xu has only played one season and only produced one signature sneaker.
If Chen Xu plays well in the playoffs and the sneakers follow from generation to generation, the income will be higher, and even the sales share alone may exceed the top salary of the league!
After all, Chen Xu is now the hottest star in the NBA, and it can be said that there is no one!
In the United States, Chen Xu has been able to compete with James, Curry and other superhuman balloon stars, plus ** this market many times larger than the United States, Chen Xu’s popularity, to put it mildly, may be hotter than James and Curry together!
At 7 p.m. the next night, the game was played at the Timberwolves’ home goal center arena.
The arena is one of the oldest in the league, built in 1990, and although Minnesota is a small city, it is still very generous.
Target Center Arena was once one of the three arenas in the league to use parquet floors, which can be said to be quite rich.
Since joining the NBA in 1990, with the exception of Kevin Garnett’s time with the team, the Timberwolves have given the image of a weak team for the rest of the time.
Not only that, but their management people have a feeling that their IQ is not online.
In 1998, the Timberwolves were only Garnett at the time, and in order to find a helper for Garnett, the Timberwolves signed 1995 champion Joe Smith.
At that time, Joe Smith was averaging 18.7 points and 8.3 boards per game, but the Timberwolves paid him only $6.3 million for 3 years! Miraculously, Joe Smith, who has always loved money, signed a contract! You know, Joe Smith rejected a $436 million contract from his parent team Warriors the year before!
This year has passed, his data has not shrunk, so much water? Is it possible that he willingly accepts?
This price, which was far below the market price, also made the alliance suspicious, and secretly set up an investigation team.
The results of the investigation afterwards also came as a surprise, and Glenn Taylor, then the big owner of the Timberwolves, conspired with Joe Smith and his agent that as long as Smith was willing to sign for 3 years at a low salary, he would be given a 7-year contract with a contract amount of no less than $40 million and a maximum of $86 million.
The result outraged the league, and then-NBA commissioner David Stern ordered a contract void, fined the Timberwolves $3.5 million, and stripped them of first-round picks for the next five years (effectively punishing them for three years). )
This incident is known as the “yin-yang contract” incident, and it is also a yin-yang contract that was exposed by the NBA.
Since sending Garnett to the Celtics in ’08, the Timberwolves haven’t tasted the playoffs for years.
Fortunately, they have been rewarded with rotten results in these years – winning successive drafts, and in 2014.2015, Andrew Wiggins and Carl Anthony Downs were taken away from 0.
This gave the Timberwolves a chance to revive.
But Timberwolves management was once again teasing and this year they fell out with Jimmy Butler, who helped the team reach the playoffs last year, and let him go to Philadelphia.
Not only that, they also renewed their contracts with Wiggins and Downs for $148 million in 5 years and $158 million in 5 years.
As a result, the two champions were short of mood after winning a big contract, and angrily led the Timberwolves to the 11th position in the West, and even caused the team to fall into the lottery area at one point.
The contract extension has once again become a joke, and the Timberwolves management and Thunder management have a fight over stupid operations.
Before the game, the Timberwolves looked scrappy, and although they had long since lost their qualification for a playoff spot, the criticism left Towns and Wiggins still upset.
The two of them decided to prove their abilities in the following matches.
Pity… Soon they were blasted by the Celts led by Chen Xu.
Especially Wiggins, he was sent by coach Tom Thibodeau to defend Chen Xu, where did Wiggins, who was healthy to play, resist Chen Xu’s fierce pursuit?
In less than two quarters, Wiggins was already able to see it on the defensive end, and opened his “health play” of soaking goji berries in his thermos cup
Downs was trained by the experienced Horford to be uncomfortable 3.2.
The entire Timberwolves team, only the withering rose Derrick Rose is struggling to support. But Ross, who has reached his peak, no longer has decisive ability, although he scored a career-high 50 points this year, drawing tears from fans.
In the end, the Celtics defeated the sad Timberwolves 128-109.
Chen Xu played 29 minutes in the game, shooting 15 of 21 with super efficiency, easily cutting 35 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals, and also got more than 10,000 hate points and dozens of attribute points from Wiggins and Towns.
After this victory, the Celtics’ record also reached 59-19, sealing the first place in the league 4 ahead of schedule!
