Five hundred and twenty-three I will not play
Updated: 2013-05-03
Both the Timberwolves and the Thunder sent young players, and for a moment they saw that they were full of passion and running very actively. This kind of game is very energetic.
The young people in both teams are both potential, capable, and very positive players.
This kind of game is very fast, the offense is very clear, and the play is very beautiful, but the score is not widened. The first quarter is about to be finished, and the two teams are still 19; 20, the Timberwolves are slightly ahead by one point.
At this time, the Timberwolves were not in a hurry to throw away the opponent. McHale immediately replaced the player, replaced the inside combination of Love and McGee, and replaced Wang Kai with Gomez.
In this way, the Timberwolves are a group of rookies, all of whom are first- and second-year players.
The Thunder replaced Durant and Westbrook, and Harden was left alone to fight the Timberwolves with the team.
This gap is reflected. The Timberwolves have won many good outside players in succession using this draft.
Teague is in good health, Curry is aware of shooting well, and the two of them cooperate with the back line is quite sharp. It just depends on Teague rushing in and laying up, Curry sucks and shoots a long shot, and Love has all kinds of weird fraud fouls under the basket, which is transferred on a large scale.
Even if the Timberwolves don't play Wang Kai at this time, they are still a very good team. Compared with the Timberwolves' talent, Harden on the Thunder seems to be unable to beat four-handed hands with two fists. The two teams play as a substitute lineup in the first stage of the second quarter, and the Timberwolves lead the Thunder with 44 and 33 by 11 points.
The score difference has widened to such a big size, and the Thunder can only play second junior immediately. The Thunder is now heavily dependent on two star players, but the offenses of Weiss and Durant Thunder are almost in full swing.
Although Harden has the ability, he cannot cooperate alone, giving the Timberwolves so much lead.
At this time, Bill Walton finally saw it. He said on the sidelines: "No wonder the Timberwolves didn't play hard today. It turns out that they might not look down on the Thunder mentally. Look, once they are on the bench lineup and the mixed lineup, they will easily score. The Timberwolves are too easy to play the Thunder."
Bill Walton really hit some of the Timberwolves' mental state. Although on the surface, the Timberwolves will never admit that they look down on the Thunder. But now this Timberwolves aims at the championship and a team aimed at the Lakers and Celtics. Deep down they really don't think that this Thunder can do anything to them.
The Thunder's loss is actually a natural reflection. In terms of overall strength, the Thunder is indeed inferior to the Timberwolves.
The second young master of the Thunder did not fully develop his potential. The Thunder lost was not unfair, but Durant felt it was unfair.
He was abused by Wang Kai at the World Championships. Now that he can still abuse his team when he returns to the NBA Timberwolves. Durant is very unhappy. When he comes back at this time, he is ready to fight to the death. He is just for dignity, and he can't let the Timberwolves play easily.
So once Durant returns to the court and gets the basketball, his first move is to break through to the Timberwolves' basket very actively and fiercely.
Durant dribbled the ball, then turned around and pressed Gomez to shoot through the board. Gomez was at a loss at first, but he was even more at a loss at a height. Durant was so big that he couldn't defend, so he watched Durant win the board and scored two points.
35:44, Durant scored two points with his positive attitude when he came up.
Durant began to respond, but the Timberwolves was not in a hurry. The two Timberwolves' rookies played well today, so McHale was still observing and the score was still ahead. McHale put Wang Kai on the bench and did not rush to substitution.
The Timberwolves hit the ball quickly and operated with Love as the core. Teague took the ball and came up and played a high pick-and-roll with Love in the first shot.
Teague had a fast speed and strong impact. He broke through with a pick-and-roll. Although he had no chance to form, he compressed the Thunder's defense back in an instant. At this time, he passed the ball to Curry outside.
Curry continued to use Love's cover, and took a step outside the three-point line, and got up and threw a three-pointer with a quick stop jump shot.
Everyone can make a quick stop jump shot, but the three-pointer in the league can no more than one slap. Seiflosa also lacks this understanding of Curry. Yet he knew that he created Curry's miracle in college, but there were too many players who created miracles in college, and there were few who played in the NBA.
Seiflosa didn't pay attention, and Curry's three-pointer "sweeps"!
As soon as this ball was scored, Wang Kai and McHale were happy. Curry was very eye-catching in the summer league. Now he can continue his long-range shooting ability in the NBA. With Curry, when he meets the Lakers in the future, it will be completely unusable for the Lakers to use the tactic of isolating Wang Kai.
Curry and Teague can completely dominate the attack on one end on the flank, just like Wang Kai is sitting below now, and the Timberwolves can still fight very smoothly, which is unimaginable in the Timberwolves in the past.
The Timberwolves don't have Wang Kai, so they still beat them very well.
The Thunder is really anxious. When Durant saw that if Wang Kai didn't go, or if Wang Kai rarely went, his team would lose. Where would he put his face?
Under this mentality, Durant came over and actively asked for the ball on the wing. Westbrook saw that Durant was going crazy today.
As a teammate, he also understands Durant's mood. Westbrook himself is also depressed. His achievements in the World Championships are not as good as Durant. His playing style has been severely suppressed in international competitions, and Durant's playing characteristics are more suitable for international competitions, so his resentment towards Wang Kai is also quite strong.
This time Durant got the basketball on the wing, and first used his height to simply look up.
Gomez had to jump slightly this time because Durant was too tall. He jumped slightly, and Durant took a big step and passed Gomez.
After Gomez Durant flew over to Mackey, the two monsters suddenly met in the air.
The wheel height is definitely higher, but Durant has the initiative in the offense. He is too tall and his slender arms, and gently throws the basketball with one hand, and a high throw is made.
Durant is already high and has to throw high, and Durant is still taking a quick move. When McGee flew up, the ball had already passed.
The basketball gently slammed the basket twice and fell into the basket. Durant made two consecutive attacks, and his hands felt hot and he came out to attack very actively.
Everyone can see this. Durant is going to fight, and Durant is going to fight to the death with the Timberwolves.
Durant has this attitude. What’s hateful is that the Timberwolves still refuse to let Wang Kai appear. They still have a group of substitutes coming to continue the attack.
Moreover, when the Timberwolves' substitute came over, the tactics remained unchanged, and two rookies took turns to play high pick-and-roll.
At this time, Westbrook also tried his best and went up to grab Teague's ball to death. Teague was almost snatched away, so he had to pass the basketball to Curry.
Although Curry is now known as a shooting guard, his organizational ability is stronger than that of Teague. Curry takes the ball very steadily and wants Love's high pick-and-roll.
Love ran out and covered with a solid cover. Curry took the ball and broke through in one step to face Ibaka who was assisting in defense. He dribbled the ball from behind and pulled it aside. At this time, Sai Flosa could only come back to defend, but Curry passed the ball directly to Love without looking at the person behind him.
As soon as Curry's pass came out, the whole audience was immediately exclaimed because Curry's pass was so beautiful and so awesome.
In this way, Curry's spiritual energy was fully demonstrated. The defender with this spiritual energy must be the star's body, and the eyes of the fans of the audience lit up.
Love took the ball from the open space outside the three-point line and made a three-pointer "Brush!" The Timberwolves made another three-pointer.
As a result, Durant of the Thunder came up and fought desperately, not only did he not narrow the gap, but the gap widened. He made two two-pointers, the Timberwolves made two three-pointers, and Curry and Love each.
The score became 50; it was 37, and the score difference became 13 points. At this moment, the Timberwolves showed their potential. Curry had a flash of inspiration, attracting all his attention. But the Thunder almost got madly angry.
The Timberwolves didn’t get to Wang Kai, so they were still ahead of us by using substitutes? This is so embarrassing!
Westbrook and Durant are going crazy at this time, especially Westbrook, when the Thunder kicks off again.
Westbrook didn't pass the ball to Durant anymore. He took the ball and directly hit Teague, just by using his body to hit him.
When Teague was a rookie who encountered a tough defense, his hands were out of standard. He reached out to defend, but the referee stared at the group of rookies! He came up and gave Teague a foul and sent Westbrook to the free throw line.
Westbrook made a free throw at the free throw line, and the Thunder head coach quickly pulled Harden back up. Now the Timberwolves' offense is too fierce. The Thunder must also strengthen their firepower. Although Harden is a rookie, his offensive ability is still the strongest.
Westbrook made both free throws, 39:50, and the Thunder took all the firepower, but at this time, McHale still suppressed Wang Kai on the Timberwolves and prevented Wang Kai from playing.
Wang Kai was also happy to watch from below. This feeling was very happy. I didn’t have to exert force, I could win the game just by watching.
Moreover, at this time, the two rookies of the Timberwolves were also in shape. Curry and Teague came to the team together, and the two were both partners and competitors. Curry had a magical story just now, and this time Teague also showed all his skills.
Teague took the ball over and faced Westbrook with a slight change of direction. When Westbrook was in a hurry to steal and rushed forward, he gave Teague a chance. Teague changed direction under his crotch and passed Westbrook.
After passing Westbrook Teague, he jumped to the free throw line and made a throw shot. "Brush!" The Timberwolves immediately counterattacked two points, and Teague also demonstrated his speed and physical ability.
As a result, the two rookie defenders of the Timberwolves looked even more dazzling, and they were simply star-studded and perfect.
The Thunder came up with all the main players and fired with all their might. In fact, they had no choice but to use the Timberwolves as a substitute lineup.
At this time, Durant was really anxious, and Westbrook was also anxious. Westbrook came up with the ball and still forced a fight against Teague.
McGee had to save and help defend. Westbrook was blocked by two people, and he turned around and could only pass the ball to Harden.
At this time, everyone in the Thunder was a little furious! But the only one Harden, this rookie, was not furious! He did not participate in the World Championships and did not celebrate the festival with Wang Kai. His goal was to play well.
In this way, Harden could make the right choice. He did not rush to attack with the ball, but paused for a moment, and then skillfully called a cover.
The big man came up to cover it, Harden changed direction left and right, broke through in one step, resisted Curry with his thicker muscles, and then made a left-hand throw to send the basketball into the Timberwolves' basket.
Harden scored easily, and he completed something that Westbrook had not completed with great effort. From this ball, we can see that the difference between Harden and Westbrook is very smart and thief. Harden is not a player who can easily play.
There are too many excellent rookies in today's game! Bill Walton and Albert also felt a lot of emotion.
Even Wang Kai was sighing that if the team wanted to get Harden out, this year's game would be too easy.
Curry was also excited when he saw this. He knew that the team wanted Harden and choosing himself was the second choice. At this time, he wanted to compete with Harden for a while.
But Curry did not do it hard, but came up to ask Teague for the ball, then dribbled forward with a very elegant step, overwhelmed the three-point line, then dribbled behind the ball and took a step back, got up and threw a quick stop jump shot.
"brush!"
Curry also made a long shot, and Curry used his actions to prove that I am no worse than you! In fact, in terms of offense and organization, Curry does not have to be inferior to Harden. The two are the difference, that is, physique. If there is room on the offensive end, Curry will be even sharper. Now Curry responds to Harden immediately.
Chapter completed!
