Chapter 253 Wolf, It's Really Here
2 Chapter [-]: The wolf is really here
The Heat lost, and the young Timberwolves had a laugh at the last moment of the game, which broke the eyes of all experts. After this war, these experts who are important in the United States did not think about the transformation of the Timberwolves, but about the transformation of Miami. The Big Three of the Heat severely reprimanded for their inaction.

In their eyes, the three superstars at their peak should be an invincible team, at least they should not lose to a team like the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Under the eyes of the league, the young Timberwolves played an amazing season last season. A big team reached the Western Conference semifinals. Although it was a pity to lose, such a huge change is already amazing enough.

In contrast, the Oklahoma City Thunder, who were only one step away from the playoffs in the Western Conference, seemed extremely awkward. They have been poor for several seasons, and the team has Kevin Durant, Westbrook, and James Ha. Young star seedlings like Deng still failed to break into the playoffs last year. It can be said that last season was another failed season for the young Thunder.

As for the Timberwolves, they are already good enough, but people in the league began to look at them with critical and even colored eyes.

I thought that the success of last season was just a coincidence. After a summer of changes, the possibility of the Timberwolves' success this season will drop a lot.

This point is almost recognized by many people. After all, the No. [-] star in the western team who restrained Li Shihao is already old and injured, and the league's number one point guard, Queen Bee Paul, who is most able to restrain the Chinese boy, is absent for most of the time. This season, when he returned to the game, he was no longer in the best game state.

This season's Western Conference will test the star's ability to lead the team even more. Under heavy pressure, there will be an explosion. No one dares to draw conclusions about who can break out of the encirclement and break into the playoffs.

But in the eyes of many people, this year's Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder have little chance. Compared with strong teams such as the Hornets and Spurs, the voice of new forces is not important, and they still need more time to grow.

Such a result may have its reasons, but the situation at the beginning of the season still made the Timberwolves a target of public criticism.

After the Timberwolves defeated the Miami Heat, they once again grabbed a strong victory at the Amway Arena in Orlando, which made Warcraft Howard sleepless at night.

Timberwolves' young inside core Marc Gasol played an excellent game against Howard, the "League's No. 28 Center" with 12 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and [-] blocks. The best player of the night.

It has to be said that Gasol really exploded that night. Even Howard, who is extremely dominant on the defensive end, couldn't stop it, and Gasol, who was fully motivated inside, couldn't stop it at all.

In the penalty area, he was overwhelmed, using his all-round strength to drive his teammates and drive the rhythm of the game, until the last moment of the game snatched the title of best player from Li Shihao.

After the game, some Orlando media asked maliciously: "Marc Gasol seems to be performing better, and his stable efficiency is obvious to all. Is he the core of the team?"

Li Shihao smiled slightly and didn't care about it: "The question of who is the core is decided by the coach tactically, and by the fans in the game. We players only need to play every game well!"

Li Shihao will not answer this question directly. He has a good relationship with Gasol, but he cannot publicly respond to such questions in front of the media. No matter what kind of answer he answers, these uncrowned kings will falsify and misinterpret it, and then destroy it. It's a matter of harmony within the Timberwolves.

After all, the most slanderous thing in the world is human words!

The current Timberwolves are still very young, and he maintains the leading position for the time being. For him, this core position is a kind of encouragement and spur. If he does not have enough strength to convince everyone, then what face does he have to play the role of the team? core.

Only progress, never-ending progress will allow Li Shihao to surpass step by step, surpass himself, and surpass everything else!
After the battle with the Orlando Magic, the Timberwolves became well-known. They made it into the top ten for the first time in ESPN's official team strength list, ranking seventh, closely following the sixth Phoenix Suns.

Since the start of the game, the Timberwolves have won all six games, ranking first in the West and first in the league, with a high attitude and indomitable progress.

Fans who love the NBA are all amazed. They don't understand why the Timberwolves, who were good enough last season, have undergone a qualitative change after a summer. The pace of rise has not stopped. Even compared with last season, this time's The steps are bigger.

Already number one in the West! Has-been-in-the-western-conference!

When many old fans see the news about the Timberwolves, this thought will involuntarily flash in their minds. Minnesota is not Los Angeles, New York, or the Celtics Chicago. The team's attention will be less than that of the Toronto Raptors.

A team from a small city, without any big-name stars joining, and no outstanding veterans, has actually reached the No. [-] position in the Western Conference step by step. Even if it is only temporarily, it is enough to shock many people's eyes.

Existence is reasonable!The Minnesota Timberwolves were able to break out strongly at the beginning of the season and rushed to the No. Ways to restrain defeat.

After all, nowadays, the most popular team is the Minnesota Timberwolves. They have attracted the attention of the entire league. Many people are waiting to see how far the young Timberwolves can go?
Whether to continue the winning streak, or encounter Waterloo and reap a miserable defeat!

On November 11, Beijing time, the Timberwolves played against the Atlanta Hawks at home. Facing the 6-point scoring frenzy of Eagle King Joe Johnson, Li Shihao stepped forward again and scored 35 points and 31 assists. Wang Zhan launched a confrontation, made 7 of 4 shots from outside the three-point line, and scored 3 points in a row, until a three-point shot at the buzzer hit the iron.

On November 11th, the Timberwolves flew to Houston, the aerospace city, as a guest at the Toyota Center. The big brother Yao Ming recovered and scored 8 points and 13 rebounds. He didn't play much. He made 4 of 5 shots and all 3 serves, but the Rockets still lost. , the Timberwolves' internal and external core teamed up again, Li Shihao and Marc Gasol's internal and external connections made the Rockets' restricted area frequently leaked, and finally lost the game by a score of 7-94.

So far, the Minnesota Timberwolves have continued to triumph and won eight consecutive victories.

The whole alliance understands, the wolf, I am afraid it is really coming!
