Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 229
Griffin came up very fiercely in the third quarter, and Love felt a little overwhelmed.

Although the two also exploded in the first half, Griffin showed his more explosive physical fitness in the second half, and Love really couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"The game is not a one-on-one match, just do your own thing." Zhang Sixin reminded Love.

He was worried that Love would lose face and mess up the rhythm of the game, so he also issued a warning.

Another insider of the Timberwolves, Milicic was also held back by Jordan.

Jordan is also in good form today. Although he is not good on the offensive end, he also sent a few big caps on the defensive end. Both DeRozan and Matthews suffered losses.

When the inside offensive end is a little weak, the Timberwolves' outside line will have to show their own strength.

The Timberwolves' offensive ability is actually stronger with three outside starters.

However, in the face of the Clippers Timberwolves' outside attack on the inside, DeRozan also did not perform well.

In the third quarter of the game, it was basically the outside shots of Curry and Matthews.

In this quarter, because of the performance of Griffin and Foye, the Clippers caught up with the score.

Every time they face the outside line, they will always have a good outside line, which can be regarded as luck.

Fortunately, during the rotation period, the Clippers were completely useless.

Their substitute players did not perform as well as the Timberwolves in the second half, but Griffin did not rest and scored some points on the court.

The Clippers use Griffin in this way, Zhang Sixin wants to see if Griffin will have enough strength at the critical moment of the game.

From the beginning of the last quarter, the two teams played all kinds of iron until the main players of both sides played one after another.

It wasn't until halfway through the final quarter that Love, who had rested, found a misplaced opportunity and got a chance to get to the free throw line.

And this also made Love come to a little state, and soon beat Griffin again.

In another physical confrontation, Griffin lost his composure and was called a technical foul.

Zhang Sixin felt that Griffin, who played first in the two teams in playing time, was indeed exhausted, and he began to be unable to stand up to Love.

After Griffin's efficiency problems, the Clippers can only look at luck from the outside.

While the Timberwolves strictly guarded against three-pointers, they gradually began to take the initiative.

The main reason is that Curry started to go crazy. If Curry's performance before was only at the level of an ordinary star, in the last 5 minutes of the last quarter, Curry completely entered the range of a superstar.

In the 4 minutes of the game, Curry hit a three-pointer after receiving a return pass from Love, and then opened.

In the next game, he pulled up twice using the screen, and hit a three-pointer when he pulled up.

The Timberwolves seemed to be so simple to overtake the score, and the Clippers players felt unable to react.

why?Why is it so easy for the opponent to score?
After the Timberwolves took the lead, the Clippers players became a little impatient.

This is also the biggest gap between the two teams. The Clippers also have some good players now, but they simply don't have the experience to withstand the pressure and win the game at critical moments.

As the clock ticked down, the Clippers' offense became easier.

Several times they attacked, they all shot three-pointers directly from the outside, but only Ryan Gomez hit one.

With the last tens of seconds left after the time was reduced, the Clippers played foul tactics.

Curry made three of four free throws, but the Timberwolves failed in their next two three-point attempts.

After the game, Clippers coach De Nagro said after the game: "Considering the current health of the team, considering the long road trip, and considering the tests we have endured, our performance tonight is not bad. We have made a lot of progress."

Zhang Sixin said: "The team will make good adjustments during the All-Star period, because after that, it means we have to consider the playoffs."

He is full of confidence, and the outside world doesn't think there is anything wrong with his words. The Timberwolves have this strength.

The Timberwolves' game ends a day earlier than some teams, and they can enjoy the All-Star Weekend earlier.

Because it was going to Los Angeles, Zhang Sixin also made an appointment with Yang Yuyu, and he would go there two days before the start of the All-Star Weekend.

Yes, Zhang Sixin is traveling with the little girl again.

In fact, they have never broken contact. If they were not in different cities, their relationship might have changed.

After all, Zhang Sixin doesn't like to go out, and there are not many women in contact with him.

In fact, Zhang Sixin was not so proactive because he was an acquaintance.

It always feels a little strange, to pursue the little kid from the past?

The last time I went to Dallas, there were only so many interesting places.

Los Angeles is still different. There are many places to play and places to eat.

The two made an appointment a few days ago. Hollywood and Disney are indispensable. They are both ordinary people. They must go to places where everyone goes.

Then try Mexican food, Jewish food, Eastern European food, Japanese food and Chinese food. If you finally have time with someone, you must eat enough food.

They had only met each other in Xia Tian, ​​and Yang Yuyu couldn't see much change, and the two of them felt that they had regained the familiarity they had when they were young.

"Tell me, how about going to Minnesota to find a job after I finish my dissertation?" Yang Yuyu asked seemingly casually.

She will be graduating this year, and she has said before that she wants to stay in the United States temporarily.

Zhang Sixin laughed and said, "Why not keep Minnesota in New York? Even if it's not easy to keep New York, don't use it in Minnesota."

Yang Yuyu gave Zhang Sixin a hard look, and started to drink in a huff.

Zhang Sixin actually knew the reason why Yang Yuyu said this, but he didn't know how long he would stay in Minnesota. There was no need for Yang Yuyu to affect his job search because of him.

The two did not continue this topic, and they still had a lot of fun in Los Angeles.

Especially Zhang Sixin, the climate here in Los Angeles is much more comfortable than that in Minnesota.

If he leaves Minnesota in the future, Zhang Sixin thinks that the place he will go to will at least be better in this respect.

Although Zhang Sixin has a lot of fame in the league now, as a head coach, his figure is the same as that of ordinary people. It is difficult for ordinary people to recognize him when he goes outside to play, and he is quite comfortable.

The Timberwolves' players who are going to participate in the All-Star Weekend have also arrived one after another, but Zhang Sixin has no time to pay attention to them for the time being.

He also doesn't want to participate in any All-Star Weekend activities, and he can go there when the players on the team are about to play.

On the first day of the All-Star Weekend, during the rookie game, Zhang Sixin came to the arena.

The Timberwolves have four players playing, and this year's first-year team is actually relatively strong, because Griffin has taken a year off and is now the first-year team's starter.

With the inside combination of Griffin and Cousins, plus Wall on the outside, it is really not easy for the second-year team to win.

The outside line is okay, but the second-year inside line is a combination of Gibson and Blair, which is really much worse.

Therefore, Zhang Sixin also gave some ideas to Curry.
