NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

In the first quarter of the game, Monty was also thinking about how to deal with Clay's outside shot.

Because of the first quarter, Clay's performance was obviously too good.

"It seems that we need to change defenses infinitely."

When Kaleman said this, Monty also nodded.

In fact, this defensive tactic should have been carried forward by the Rockets' chief assistant coach Bzdelik in his previous life.

This tactic is actually the tactic that should have been used by the five warriors who died back then.

In the subsequent NBA, such tactics can often be seen on the stage of the playoffs.

Monty nodded, and this tactic is the best to restrict Clay.

Soon the second quarter of the two teams came back.

Thibodeau did not let Clay go off the field, and using the main force is a clear tactic of his.

And now the points difference between the two teams is not that big, if Clay continues to go down, then the game will really be no suspense.

And Thibodeau is also going to give Towns a chance to play again.

After sitting on a bench off the court, Towns is also much calmer.

So after returning to the court, Downs also played well here.

Because the Lakers have unlimited defenses, Towns also has the opportunity to play big and small.

Continuous mid-range shots also allowed the Timberwolves to maintain a weak lead.

"Papa Huang, why didn't the Lakers replace my brother?"

Zifeng also asked in the auditorium.

Teacher Huang really didn't know how to answer this question.

After all, this is the head coach's business, how does he know.

Fortunately, Li Xirui on the other side said.

"That's because Coach Monty doesn't want to see the team relying on Chen Tian all the time, so he is reducing Chen Tian's playing time."

As soon as these words came out, the four of them also understood.

On the field, the Timberwolves were so aggressive in attacking, but Monty wasn't in a hurry at all.

Because of Clay's performance on the court, there has been a decline in efficiency.

With 5 minutes left in the second quarter, Chen Tian, ​​Jokic and Anthony also returned to the court.

But at this time, all the main players on the Timberwolves side went down to rest.

Thibodeau also shouted from the sidelines, asking them to start defending.

But in the face of Chen Tian's attack, how could the Timberwolves defend.

Here, Chen Tian received the pass and easily dunked with both hands.

Anthony also did not give up much, and he also made three-pointers with a step back.

Jokic's low back hit was also an easy fallback hit.

In just 3 minutes, the Lakers wiped out the Timberwolves' seven-point lead.

Fortunately, Ingram stepped forward in time at this time.

His sudden inside and outside shots ensured that the Timberwolves score was not opened by the Lakers.

Chen Tian is still very optimistic about Ingram's talent.

After all, when he was in the draft, the template was Durant.

Although not necessarily as powerful as Durant's scoring ability, he can still become the top of the NBA.

At this time, Yingge has begun to realize her talent.

But with 1 minute left in the second quarter.

Chen Tian blocked Yingge's shots consecutively, which also allowed the Lakers to open the score.

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers led the Timberwolves by eight points 64:56.

Teacher Huang and the four of them were very excited to watch this game.

"My brother is amazing. As long as he plays, the score will be reversed immediately."

Hearing Zifeng's soft voice, the others all laughed.

"That's for sure, Chen Tian is the God of Los Angeles!"

"If Chen Tian runs for the mayor of Los Angeles, he may be unanimously approved."

When Li Xirui on the side said this, Teacher He and the others were not at all curious.

Because Chen Tian's popularity in the United States is too high.

Especially in Los Angeles, there is no one who does not love Chen Tian.

Going back to the locker room, the atmosphere of the Lakers is needless to say.

In fact, the Timberwolves did not pose much threat to them.

And in this game, both the starter and the substitute did very well.

So Monty has nothing to say.

On the other hand, on the Timberwolves side, Thibodeau's head was about to explode.
