I'm a basketball star

Chapter 140 [It's Lu Deng's "annoying moment" again! 】

After Landon scored the goal, he high-fived Pekovic.

"Nicola, that's great. This goal mainly depends on your pick-and-roll. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have a chance to make a shot. Thank you."

Pekovic had a smile on his face. He used to pick and roll and never felt a sense of accomplishment.The statistical score of the goal, the statistical assist of the pass, it seems that the goal has nothing to do with the pick-and-roller.

You have heard what Lu Deng said, half of the military medal is yours and half is mine. I have never heard such a "pertinent" praise!

This is encouragement!

When attacking again, Pekovic tried every means to play the ball for Lu Deng, and he was more motivated than chasing beautiful women.

Luden played like a fish in water, like mercury pouring down the ground, one three-pointer from the left, one three-pointer, and six three-pointers in a row before he was interfered by Brandon Davis, who switched defenses, and missed one.

前8分钟，三分球7中6，加上一次技术犯规罚球，拿下19分。森林狼截至目前一共猜得到24分。而76人队才得了8分。

Just like the previous game against the Pacers, Luden once again took the lead and widened the gap.

As Lu Deng's defender, "Prince Luke" is really miserable!

Partly because of Lu Deng, partly because of Pekovic.

Six defenses and five hits on Pekovic.

Pekovic was tall, big and fat, and every time he hit it, it was like hitting a hot air balloon, and Mbah a Moute was knocked back and forth.

The most depressing thing was that Pekovic was sweating profusely and was extremely greasy. He accidentally bumped into his armpit, and the smell of sweat could make people overwhelmed!After three days, I could still smell that sweaty smell. When I remembered after eating, I put down the bowl and ran to the bathroom, holding the toilet to vomit for a long time. The "aftertaste" on Pekovic's body lasted for three days The smell hasn't dissipated yet.

Lu Deng scored 19 points in the first quarter, Luke Prince had 0 points, 0 rebounds and 0 assists, a technical foul, hit Pekovic 5 times, and fell [-] times.

Now he's dumb, and he doesn't follow Lu Dengduan anymore.

Watching the news, when CJ Myers was defending, he laughed and scolded "CJ Myers is a second idiot" in front of his teammates. Now it's his turn, and he was beaten even more than the second idiot.

Luden was replaced by Sanders, and all his teammates came up to celebrate Luden with high fives. Sanders patted his head lovingly.

All the fans stood up and cheered and applauded loudly. After watching the Timberwolves for so many years, it is rare to be so relieved today.

Don't look at just playing one round, Lu Deng has become a hero in their hearts, the hero in the center of the target.

Until Lu Deng sat down in his seat, the staff put towels and drinking water on the floor, and the rebroadcast footage was still on him, "reluctant" to leave.

On the 76ers side, Luke Mbah a Moute was also replaced by Brown, and he sat on the bench in despair. Brown's face was dark and he didn't even look at him.

In this game, Brown is not going to play Mbah a Moute again.

The game in the first quarter seemed to be a footnote to the whole game.

Even if Luden is not present, the overall strength of the Timberwolves is still much higher than that of the 76ers.After 6 minutes in the second quarter, Sanders sent Luden again. At this time, the score on the court was 48:32, and the Timberwolves led by 16 points.

Brown didn't send Mbah a Moute on the court, and used Tony Roten to defend Luden.

In the scouting report before the game, the Timberwolves scout wrote Tony Roten like this:
"Pros: He's a natural aggressive guy who wants to get to the rim all the time. He's a fancy dribbler, comparable to a young Crawford. When he's up to speed you're hard to stop him, and he gets caught by the way he plays. It made my heart ache."

Looking at this paragraph, Lu Deng felt that this guy seemed to be quite powerful.He suddenly remembered that last season, when the starting point guard Michael Carter-Williams of the 76ers was injured, Tony Roten started the game and hit a triple-double in the first game, which made many people know him.

But he can't bear to look directly at his shortcomings. The scout report describes his shortcomings like this:

"When you see his flaws, you can understand why the Grizzlies would have given up on him. If I were the Grizzlies general manager, I would have given up on him too, because he's one-sided. His best situation is:' Teammates are responsible for running to contain others, and I am responsible for the final finish.'

"He only has the concept of offense in his mind. If he and Crawford and Nick Young put together a team, they will probably fight in the aisle at halftime because of sticking the ball and grabbing possession!

"The problem is, he's not the leader of the team. Of course, he can't be the leader of any NBA team-he has the heart of the leader, but he doesn't have the skills of the leader. Such a person can only be the leader with his teammates. Beat too hard to find North.

"Because he has the heart of being the boss, he doesn't defend much. Defense is a blue-collar job. So when Tony leads the team, he often fights on his own, like a loose sand."

The scouting report mentioned a sentence at the end: "If Tony Roten leads the team, pass the ball when attacking, and you will find countless open positions. At that time, the opportunity to kill the game will come..."

Is that true?Lu Deng thought, if a person like Luo Teng defends me, isn't he trying to kill me?Come on, come on, let's go!

The game restarted, and the Timberwolves had all the starters: Luden, Rubio, Pekovic, Brewer and Thaddeus Young.

Rubio is in control of the ball. In just two games, Rubio summed up an experience: "Gather assists and find Luden."

When Lu Deng was there, he didn't need to attack at all, he just needed to pass the ball into his hands, everything was so simple.

Pekovic, the big white bear, found a sense of accomplishment after playing with Luden. He was very excited when he played, like a child, willing to run and block people more than ever, plus Brewer and Sadie Si-Young's offensive ability is good.

The 76ers are miserable. They can't fight offensively, but how can they defend against a mess of loose sand?
On the first touch of the ball, Luden hit a three-pointer with the help of Pekovic's block.This is the seventh three-pointer he scored, and he made 7 of 8 shots. Although it is not 7%, it is also a frightening shooting rate.

Since then, he has been out of control. With the cooperation of his teammates, he made four consecutive three-pointers and only missed one. He scored a total of 12 points in the second quarter. Lu Deng's total halftime score has reached 31 points.

Not only Luden couldn't stop, but the rest of the Timberwolves, Brewer and Thaddeus Young also scored goals one after another. In the second half of this quarter, the Timberwolves scored 26 points and the total score reached 74. :44, the game has lost suspense.

In the second half, Luden did not appear again. Relying on the advantage established in the first half, the Timberwolves easily won 121:90.

Lu Deng scored 12 points in total by making 10 of 1 31-pointers in the first half and making [-] free throw. The efficiency is extremely high!

……

At the post-match press conference, Saunders took Luden to attend, and the 76ers only came with coach Brown alone.

That's right, if it wasn't for the regulations, he wouldn't want to come either!

But innocent absenteeism at the press conference is punishable by fines.

A local Minnesota reporter asked Lu Deng: "Before the game, Luke Mbah a Moute said that it is useless for you to study the history of Philadelphia. He will reward you with a few big hats and 'beat you back from history to reality'. At this moment, what do you want to do? what did he say?"

Lu Deng thought for a while and said: "Two points, the first point, Prince Luke should clean up his Twitter. The second point is more important, I think he should give Shaq O'Neal a gift, begging him to put a Ma, don't choose the cue ball he scored in the top five!"

The reporters roared with laughter.

However, giving O'Neill a gift may not work. Even if he gave O'Neill his father's tribe, O'Neill would not let go of such good material!
