The older superstars of the NBA

Chapter 188 The first battle after the transaction

After practicing shooting for more than half an hour, Zhao Feiyang turned and walked to the locker room.After he arrived at the locker room again, he finally found that there were players arriving here.

After pushing the door open, Zhao Feiyang saw some familiar faces.

Kevin Martin sits in the middle, which is a very good position, close to the team's head coach Philip Sanders. He is the team's highest scoring player this season, averaging 20 points per game.

It can be said that this team is currently the strongest player.

Sitting next to him is Andrew Wiggins. This guy is the No. [-] pick selected by the Cavaliers, but he was sent here to trade Kevin Love.

Andrew Wiggins is talented and has averaged 16.9 points per game so far.

From this point of view, this No. [-] scholar really deserves his name.

However, one thing he is more criticized by fans is that this young man seems to have no desire for victory. Not only has he not been keen on training off the court, but his attitude towards the game on the court is almost enough.

It seems that he has an ability of 80 points, but he often only reaches 65 points and stops working hard!

Some Huaxia fans were quite speechless about his performance, and even deliberately posted pictures of him in order to ridicule him, turning his water glass into goji berries, in order to show Andrew Wiggins' "health-preserving style".

In addition to these two, the Timberwolves' locker room also has Maurice Williams, the man who used to play point guard next to LeBron James.

Known as "No Pass", he is famous for not passing the ball.

At this time, he has also reached the end of his career, and it can almost be said that he is on the verge of retirement.

What makes Zhao Feiyang most incomprehensible is that the situation of the team's back line getting together is simply a headache.

The above three alone have already occupied three positions. Even if Andrew Wiggins is put on the front line, the team's back line can be said to be quite crowded.

Golden boy Ricky Rubio, a foreign player with high expectations before the draft; rookie Zach LaVine, known for his athletic ability, especially his dunk performance is very explosive.

There are also a few names that Zhao Feiyang is not so familiar with. The combination of these people makes this team look like a mess.

And not only the back line, but other positions as well.

Anthony Bennett, another No. [-] pick acquired by the Timberwolves in the trade with the Cavaliers, was called "the most water-worthy No. [-] pick in history." The problem of illness exists, and no one knows whether he will have a chance to play out later.

The only eye-catching thing is probably the return of "Old Wolf King" Kevin Garnett.

It's a pity that Kevin Garnett was 38 years old at this time, and his return to the Timberwolves was just to sell tickets and give himself a perfect exit.

It is no longer his responsibility to help the team achieve results.

After all, no one can criticize what a nearly 40-year-old veteran will do.

Faced with such a situation, Zhao Feiyang could only bite the bullet and walk in.After he entered the locker room, he quickly attracted the attention of other people. The reaction of his teammates was neither cold nor cold. Some people greeted him, but they did not show any signs of clapping hands with him.

Only Kevin Garnett walked up to him as an old man in the locker room and took the initiative to express his kindness to him.

"Zhao, welcome to Minneapolis!"

Kevin Garnett offered his hand.

"Thank you, Kevin."

The two clapped hands and hugged each other.

"It's cold here....but you'll get used to it after a while....enjoy the game! No one asks you to do anything here..."

Zhao Feiyang nodded.

Soon, the team coach Philip Sanders entered the locker room.

He arranged the team's starting lineup, Zhao Feiyang was not on the list, maybe because he didn't want to break the current stable situation, in short, Zhao Feiyang entered the substitute list to rest from the beginning.

"Today our opponent is the Oklahoma City Thunder."

"Their record is not much better than ours, so we just do our best...."

There is not too much fighting, and there are not too many slogans. Coach Philip Saunders also looks very Buddhist.After exhorting the precautions on the field, he led the players towards the infield.

As soon as they entered the infield, the cheers of the fans finally came.

At this time, there is not much time left before the game, and the fans have all entered the stadium.

To Zhao Feiyang's surprise, there didn't seem to be so many fans in the Target Center arena. Some seats were still vacant, and the entire arena was probably only occupied by 80.00% of the people.

Even if it is only 80.00%, what is interesting is that there are more than a dozen Asian faces sitting on the team bench to cheer for themselves.

As soon as he walked out of the player tunnel, he heard voices from both sides of the stands.

"Zhao! You are the best!"

"Welcome to Minnesota!"

For these fans who supported him, even though he didn't know which country they were from, Zhao Feiyang still responded enthusiastically by waving his hands.

Of course, apart from a few of them, it is almost difficult to see Asian faces in the entire arena.

call out.

The referee's whistle sounded.

The two sides officially started fighting.

The Timberwolves' starting lineup came on the stage, led by Kevin Martin, coupled with role players like Thaddeus Young, and paired with rookies like Andrew Wiggins, a lineup that looked so decent came out.

On the Thunder side, their starting lineup also debuted soon.

However, they look much better than the Timberwolves.

The two core members of the team, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, can be described as high-spirited. Even if their record is mediocre this season, it will not affect the confidence shown by the two.

Both sides jump the ball.

Snapped.

The Thunder took the lead in winning the ball.

The game officially begins.

Russell Westbrook goes half court with the ball.

Just after halftime, Kevin Durant ran up and responded from the wing.Russell Westbrook looked like he was going to pass the ball to him one second ago, but in the next second, he suddenly changed direction and swayed Kevin Martin to the basket.

His breakthrough was really too fast. Before the inside Timberwolves players could counterattack, he had already leaped high and smashed the ball into the basket.

boom.

A dunk was sent at the beginning.

Such a bursting performance made the entire Thunder bench stand up and applaud.

"Good job!"

"nice shot."

In contrast to the Timberwolves players, the players on the field looked very calm, as if they did not have any counterattack performance because of such a dunk.

On the bench, most of the players were expressionless, acting like a melon-eating crowd.
