you are all star

Chapter 295

The coach who didn't say much on the side, when Garnett encouraged his teammates in such a way, he was both worried and happy. The worry was that his teammates were under too much pressure, always nervous, unable to play at the level, so that he finally promised If you fail, the joy is that you can make your teammates feel the responsibility on their shoulders at all times, and they will not be as lax as in the previous game, let down their vigilance and eventually lose the game.

But now the words spoken are like water poured out, and the water has been overwhelmed, so I have to face the difficulties with great pressure.

For the current Timberwolves, they can only look at last night's failure with such a mentality.

Victory will pass, and failure will pass, but it is the heart that cannot pass for a while, a heart that cannot accept failure, people must always look forward, and cannot always be unable to escape from the shadow of past failures, this is the most terrible thing of.

So, they're going to get out of it, and they have to, and that's the only chance they have to continue the winning streak.

Why do you say that?Because they clearly understand that the greatest enemy of man is not others, but himself.

After the setback in New York, he did not shirk responsibility, but was very conscious of his own shortcomings, so that the Timberwolves would not be defeated.

According to general inertial thinking, according to the past NBA practice, back-to-back games will be very strenuous, and most of them will be crushed by a team with sufficient rest and good physical strength. Therefore, even if the Timberwolves have a good record The third in the league, but still not favored.

In fact, whether a team can win or not, you only need to look at the tenacity and tenacity of the coaches and players in the face of adversity to see the state of the team on the court.

In the game against the Wizards, many people really underestimated the Timberwolves, and it was beyond their expectations. The state of all the Timberwolves present on both ends of the offense and defense was nothing like a player who had just suffered a defeat yesterday. The Wizards played a 7-0 spurt, which won warm applause from many away fans, and directly chanted the name of Wolf King Garnett: "Wolf King, Wolf King..."

"MVP, MVP..."

The Wizards star heard the fans so supportive of the Raiders, and suddenly there was a turbulent ups and downs in his heart, and he felt jealous of Garnett. He stared at Garnett for a while, retreated, and whispered: "Okay Garnett, dare to come to Washington to poach fans, he really regards this place as his own, but you have to ask me if I agree."

Before the muttered words fell, his teammate re-passed the ball to Hamilton. Then, a teammate ran up from the weak side to pick and roll for him. Nate actually fell for his trick, and his attention was diverted by him. He quickly put down the ball with his right hand, dribbled the ball with his right hand and took a big stride to the right to pass Garnett. His job is to run actively with the person he is defending, so that it is too late to make up the defense, so Hamilton has an opportunity to shake Garnett, enter the penalty area, and stage a gravitational revenge dunk.

After dunking in, he turned his head to Garnett, despised Garnett with contemptuous eyes, gestured a thumbs down, and then walked towards Garnett with his head held high, and when he passed by him, he said something like this : "Wolf King? That's all!"

Garnett smiled slightly, and trotted back to defend and layup. Garnett didn't even plan to talk to Hamilton, but he was still too much. It was true that he was close to Garnett, but his mouth was like a firecracker all the time. Garnett talked boastfully in front of him, as if such a boast, such a talk, would really be invincible.

When he got tired of talking in Garnett's ear, Garnett responded lightly: "If your game skills are like you who are talking at this moment, then my team will score two points at the moment. We are."

After Garnett finished speaking, he glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, crooked his mouth, smiled slightly, and lightly touched Hamilton with one hand, making a gesture for the ball.

Neal, who was dribbling to organize the attack, saw Garnett's gesture for the ball from the corner of his eye while he was moving, and passed the pass high enough to prevent the ball from falling into Hamilton's hands. Hamilton saw Neal pass it to Garnett The ball felt very short, and should be able to steal it, so they jumped up to grab the ball at the same time as Garnett, but saw the ball above his head, but he couldn't reach the ball with all his strength. Since he couldn't reach it, he could only watch helplessly. The ball fell into Garnett's hands behind him.

Garnett received Neal's lob, dribbled it, looked at all the fans, received the ball and took off, and dunked with both hands in the air.

Hamilton's dunk just now, plus Garnett's dunk at this time, made the entire arena boil, because the cores of the two teams are completely aligned, and there is a confrontation, and there is something to watch, and there is suspense. Will be stage fright, insist on watching.

After Garnett dunked in, he turned his head and glanced at Hamilton, put the ball on the ground, then retreated to the backcourt with an excited smile, and stretched out his right hand to high-five Neal and three other teammates who were applauding for him. , and patted everyone on the shoulder: "Be active in offense and defense, and resolutely win this game, otherwise, I really don't have any face to go back to see the folks and elders."

Neil and the three teammates nodded with firm and serious expressions, and spread out to defend their own people.

Because just now Hamilton and Garnett's back-and-forth confrontation, the two of them have formed a bridge. As the time passed by one minute and one second, the two scorers were evenly matched, but the overall score of the team was not high. The cooperation is not much.

The coach saw that the pairing of the two was flourishing, and they could also tie the score through singles, so they did not replace the two, and let them continue to fight on the field, because their confrontation can bring joy and excitement to people. Call.

But in the second half of the third quarter, because the two persisted in fighting, their physical strength was exhausted, and they couldn't run anymore. The two took the initiative to ask for a rest, and they walked to the bench while looking at their own scores. it's the same.

After Garnett left the court, Neal took over Garnett's baton, continued the previous offensive rhythm and firepower, took away the game victory from the Wizards abruptly, and went back to apologize to the fans in his hometown.

After Garnett left the field, the two teams suddenly lost the previous offensive rhythm of fighting alone. Suddenly, the situation changed, and they played pick-and-roll cooperation and team basketball, but the two teams had different points of offense with the ball and different players.

The Timberwolves rely on Neil to organize the offense and attract double-teams to help defend and then decisively score the ball, while the Wizards mainly play high positions.

The two teams were unwilling to suffer the spittle of the outside world, and both were determined to fight for their dignity.

The more the two teams wanted to widen the point difference, the more they couldn't draw apart, and no one could get rid of the other. In the end, with 28 seconds left in the game, the two teams drew.

It's just that the team belongs to the Timberwolves, and because the ball is critical, Neal whispered a few words in Garnett's ear, and then served to organize the attack.

Garnett really listened to Neal's words. In order to kill the game with this attack, he sent the ball to Neal and delayed the pick-and-roll for Neal. The opponent leaves too many chances.

In order to be on the safe side, Neal tried his best not to let the opponent's plot succeed, avoid them, prevent them from fouling, and avoid giving them three-pointers enough opportunities to organize offenses, so he alternated the ball back and forth between Garnett and him, exchanging two or three times Afterwards, Neal dribbled the ball in a wide arc, and stepped forward with his right foot. The defender thought he was going to break through, so he took a step back. He retracted his foot and shot a jumper behind Garnett who was in a high pick-and-roll. , the ball hit the board high.

"Oh, my god! Another quasi-lore?" There was such an incredible sound of surprise from the audience.

After Garnett picked and rolled, he quickly turned his head to see that the ball actually went in. He just raised his hand and clapped Neil and said, "Brother, this is a key shot! Good job! Maybe the trend of the game is changed because of your shot." Change."

"Actually, this is the result of our joint efforts."

Garnett nodded, smiled, and patted him on the shoulder.

In fact, the Wizards had a chance to tie the game, but they chose a three-pointer, but they didn't make it in the end, so they had to accept the defeat painfully.

It's just that they never expected that it was Neil who finally made the key goal, not the wolf king who has always scored first.
