Grab Curry at the start

Chapter 330 Consecutive Away Game Begins

It is actually better to play back-to-back at home, and the rest and training of the players will not be affected.

The opponent they ushered in was the Hornets, a team with a poor record that could give up the playoffs early.

It's just that they don't have newcomers to exercise, and it's not very fun to play badly.

After all, Gordon, the only potential young man that Paul exchanged for, was reimbursed. This is life.

But the Hornets are good defensively as a big team, which makes them more difficult to play.

Against their team, the consumption will be relatively high, so Zhang Sixin will let the rotation players play more.

Because the Hornets have a relatively strong defense, the players are accustomed to hand-to-hand combat, and they have many injuries of their own.

In this game, their inside line Okafor cannot play.

As a result, the Timberwolves started killing the Quartet inside.

With the deterrence of the outside line, the Hornets really dare not shrink at will.

However, although the Hornets' insider Kaman couldn't defend, he felt good today and hit a lot of shots when he pulled out.

The Timberwolves completely blocked the Hornets' three-pointer, but they were bitten by the opponent.

Zhang Sixin didn't care, and let the substitute players play more time according to the plan.

In fact, against the Hornets, there is not much difference between the main lineup or the substitute lineup. Anyway, the Timberwolves will have a stronger offense than the opponent.

But the Hornets' rotation lineup is also surprisingly good, Aminu and Vasquez can play well.

Looking at it this way, the Hornets are still a bit young. Although they are not top talents, they can be cultivated more.

I just don't know the reason why the Hornets are not completely letting go now. Maybe their head coach Monty Williams has his own insistence.

But no matter what, their record is not good anyway, and the purpose of showing bad will not be a problem.

In the first half, the Hornets really entangled the Timberwolves.

No matter how big the difference in strength is, there are no absolutely weak teams in the NBA, and it is still no problem to last half the court.

Otherwise, why do many teams show their power in the third quarter? This shows that a strong team is not only more capable of players, but also the adjustment ability of the team and the adjustment ability of the stars.

And weak teams may only adjust at that level, and it is difficult to make changes against their opponents.

In the third quarter, the two sides still did not decide the winner, but in the last quarter, Love still closed the game.

For a strong team with weak inside, Love prefers to play no matter what the defense is.

He can do everything inside and outside, rebounding and scoring. At this time, Love is like a superman.

After killing the Hornets, the Timberwolves rested for a day, and then it was the longest seven-game streak of the entire season.

After finishing this away game series, the regular season has come to the final stage.

In the last dozen games, the Timberwolves will definitely focus on the playoffs.

After all, the team's goal is not to make the playoffs, but to defend the title.

The first stop of the away game is Phoenix. There is no doubt that it is time for Love to abuse food again.

When Love can abuse food, Curry will also play very comfortably, and the reverse may not necessarily be true.

As soon as the Suns changed their tactics from last time in this game, they added a substitute at the beginning of this game, focusing on the outside.

This trick really made the Timberwolves a little uncomfortable and gave them a lead for a while.

It's just that the Suns' players are not capable enough, and relying on the forward player Dudley to engage in sneak attacks cannot last long.

As long as the Timberwolves react, the Suns will not be able to kill the Timberwolves in this way, regardless of whether there is a defense inside.

On the contrary, the Timberwolves first exerted their strength inside to withstand the opponent's pressure, and then overtook the score after a wave of explosions during the rotation period.

The Timberwolves' bench lineup is really much better than the Suns, not to mention that the Suns are like headless chickens after Nash goes down.

With Jeremy Lin, Green, Leonard, and Whiteside all performing, how can the Suns stand up.

Without a defensive team, the lead is not safe at all.

The Suns really couldn't score stably in the second quarter. Even if they knew how to cause trouble for the Timberwolves, their players were not capable enough, and no one could do anything about it.

In the third quarter, the sun withstood again, and they were not without resistance at all.

The Suns have no intention of playing badly this season, but they really can't do anything.

These two seasons have made the team and Nash see the reality clearly, so Nash will go to other teams to pursue the championship after the season is over, but unfortunately he didn't go to the right place.

When it came to the rotation period, the Suns were at a disadvantage again, but they withstood this time.

Suns coach Gentry actually made targeted adjustments.

It's just that at the end of the quarter, when Curry and Love exerted their strength, the game was over immediately.

This is the power of stars. The current sun can't stop the Timberwolves' All-Star players, let alone the existence of superstars like Curry.

After the Timberwolves took down the Suns, they rarely had two days to adjust the time.

Of course, there must be consecutive back-to-backs next.

On March 3, the Timberwolves played away against the Jazz.

The Jazz is also a team that is not bad, but it is difficult to enter the playoffs.

The Jazz have taken care of training young players. They have a few good young players, but the team has not made up their minds to sacrifice their record for training.

After all, they still have a few good players, and it's normal for them to have conflicting ideas.

The current Jazz feels mediocre, but it is not so easy for the Timberwolves to win.

Just like the Suns, the Jazz can resist a few times. If they are not careful, they can also play a good performance, and their defense is still slightly better than the Suns.

After the game started, the Timberwolves were in full bloom.

The Jazz mainly rely on some points that the Timberwolves don't pay much attention to for sneak attacks, and they play more as a team.

Even though the players and coaches have changed, the Jazz are still very motivated at home.

As for the Jazz's rookies who play off the bench, there will always be someone who performs well.

Some of them even have a relatively strong performance. Hayward has performed well this time off the bench, and Burks, Favors and Kanter are very desperate to grab rebounds.

Every team has its own strengths, and Zhang Sixin went over the countermeasures in his mind.

"What we have to do is to limit the opponent's offense. The Jazz don't have three points." Zhang Sixin said.

Hold the Jazz's three-pointer, no matter what brilliant performance they have, the result will not change by then.

But Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin has no better way. He can only let the players work hard, even if they face the Timberwolves, they must defend their home court.

However, in the second half, the Jazz's offensive efficiency became lower and lower.

In fact, they are not the kind with poor offense, but their routines have been figured out by the Timberwolves.

It will be very difficult for the Jazz to pinch Harris and Millsap.

If the player who initiates the tactics is not strong enough, the tactical effect will be greatly reduced.

After the Timberwolves established their inside advantage, their outside three-pointers also gradually increased their shooting percentage, and the rhythm of the game has been controlled in their hands.
