There are no teammates around to respond, and they are facing a defensive master like Billups. No matter how strong Arenas' ability is, the final result cannot be avoided.

"Smack!", although the general dodged Dampoter's block and Lamar's pressing, but in the final slam dunk, Arenas also became the end of the crossbow, and finally failed to dodge Wade's block.

After the basketball was blocked by Wade, it went directly to Lamar's hands.

The Knicks' fast break unfolded again, and after a couple of passes, Dampoter finally scored with a two-handed dunk.

8：0！

The Knicks took the lead after the opening period, and after an 8-0 scoring wave, Phil Jackson also had to call the first timeout of the game.

The Los Angeles Lakers started the game trailing by eight points, which was somewhat disappointing for fans who were fantasizing about watching a high-level game before the game began. One thing came to their minds: the Timberwolves were no different.

On the sidelines, Phil Jackson was throwing tantrums at his players, and he could tell that from the beginning of the game until now, the players' attention was not on the court at all, and everyone was out of the field.

"Can you shift your mind away from the turkey for a while? Looking at our current situation, are you planning to use this state to challenge the Knicks' supremacy?"

"Don't dream! You can't do anything, you don't even have a chance to break out of the West and get that chance to challenge the Knicks! Now it's been almost three minutes into the game, look at your performance, wow! I'm sorry! Gentlemen, not qualified, not at all!"

"Aside from Gilbert's save, every action you take on the pitch doesn't mean anything. I don't want to deny you, but that's the way it is!"

Everyone on the Timberwolves team, including Garnett, was the same, keeping their heads down and reflecting on their previous performance.

Phil Jackson was right, it's Christmas, and their minds aren't on the game at all. Phil Jackson's anger is entirely justified.

David Stern deliberately put such a game that represents the meaning of revenge on such an important Christmas battle, originally hoping to make the Knicks team not have a good mood for Christmas. But who knows that now he has lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot, and the really depressed person has become himself.

"Ben, now sit on the bench and reflect on it! I hope your head cools down a little, your mission is not to fight that Haitian ugly guy on the field!"

"Mark, you come on and take Ben. What should I do, I don't need to teach you any more, right?"

"Guys, attack! What we want now is to score, all run, everybody run. Use your impact to tear through the opponent's defense, don't tell me you can't do it, there are a lot of people around me waiting to play!"

Phil Jackson's words are very obvious, if the form on the court does not change, he will have to make a substitution. Now that Phil Jackson wears two hats with the Timberwolves, his prestige can be said to be unique, and no one on his team is irreplaceable.

The game restarted, and the Timberwolves' offense did improve, and Garnett got a chance to shoot as soon as he came up, hitting a mid-range shot, and finally broke the scoring drought.

The Knicks were not soft on their side, Lamar's breakthrough shot accurately found Billups on the outside. The latter hit a three-point shot.

11:2! The margin was extended to 9 points.

The Timberwolves kicked off again, and after Arenas got the ball, he suddenly turned around and accelerated, and when Billups didn't react, he quickly passed the half.

During the pause, Arenas felt that Phil Jackson's every word was addressed to him. Although he had one successful save, he didn't do anything other than that it wasn't a point guard job at all.

Everyone knows that in Phil Jackson's system, the responsibility of the point guard is the least important. You must know that the Iron Man Andre Miller, who is now sitting on the bench of the Timberwolves, is deeply trusted by Phil Jackson, if Arenas does not perform well, even if Phil Jackson has promised to start, but he will not escape the fate of the bench.

If he wants to change his fate in the NBA, Arenas must seize this opportunity to perform well and strive to solidify his position in the team.

You must know that for the main position of the Timberwolves, Arenas turned down the olive branch of the defending champion and chose to defect to New York. With these days of training, while not fully understanding Phil Jackson's tactical system, Arenas believes that it is not a problem for him to fit in.

Phil Jackson's request for a point guard is simple, just give it to Garnett, who mentions the free-throw line, after halftime, and then run himself, intersperse, and open up space.

Of course, due to Arenas' strong attacking power, Phil Jackson also made appropriate changes and gave Arenas the power to attack the interior with the ball.

"Smack!", the sound of a basketball hitting the ground sounded. The basketball was smashed to the ground by Arenas, and after a huge refraction, it was directly handed into the hands of Garnett under the basket.

After Garnett received the ball, he leaned on Lamar to quickly attack the inside, and before Darm Porter pressed up, he slammed the ball into the ball with one hand.

11：4！

"Well done, Gilbert! That's it, that's it!" Phil Jackson shouted from the sidelines, very pleased with Arenas' pass.

Garnett also reached out and slapped Arenas as he passed by. The Wolf King had always had a bit of an opinion about this teammate before, thinking that a guy like Arenas was simply a time bomb pressed in the locker room, but with more than three months of communication, he at least regarded Arenas as his own.

"Brothers, don't care, take your time!"

Arenas' performance also made Lamar feel a little different, and he remembered that in history, Arenas was definitely a thorn in the thorn. When he was in the Washington Wizards, he didn't talk about angry coaches, and even pulled out guns and killed people with teammates for a few quarrels!

How could he be so obedient now? Could it be that Phil Jackson was really a powerful spiritual mentor? Otherwise, how could he train the unruly Arenas like a good boy.

"It looks like it's going to be taken seriously. Lamar silently reminded himself, then reached out to Billups for the basketball.

The moment he received the ball, Lamar suddenly activated, using his dazzling feints to confuse Garnett before he could take his position.

Lamar, who was thinking of attacking the inside line to give the Timberwolves a little blow, just rushed a step and bumped into a green figure, followed by the referee's whistle and an offensive foul!

Looking at Arenas who fell beside him, Lamar couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and secretly blamed himself: How did you forget that this guy is a competition-type player, if he really goes crazy, this guy can transform into a large AI.

Lamar didn't say anything after standing up, turned and ran towards his own half, but the flames of battle in his eyes did grow brighter and brighter.

Don't underestimate any opponent!

Arenas dribbled the ball and attacked again, a pass, a foul on Lamar that made him completely excited. After dribbling the ball past half court, seeing that Billups on the opposite side was not very tightly defended, the general, who was already excited, suddenly jumped up and shot directly.

"What?" exclaimed Billups.

knows Arenas Billups very well, and the two had no less confrontation in private when they were on the Knicks. Although the style of play has changed since Arenas left for the Timberwolves, Billups is still confident against him. Of course, in order to better defend Arenas, Billups also deliberately studied the footage of Arenas' recent matches before the game.

After researching, Billups found that Arenas' breakthrough was still as sharp as ever, but the three-point shooting was not as accurate as it was when he was with the Knicks. For this reason, Arenas will definitely not make more than five three-point shots per game these days, and most of them are in open positions.

That's why Billups deliberately took a small step back when defending Arenas tonight, focusing on defending his breakaway.

At this point, the underside of the basket was already crowded, and everyone looked up at the basketball that was still gliding, ready to scramble for rebounds.

"Huh!"

The ball actually went in!

The Timberwolves' bench burst into cheers, and even Andre Miller, who was compressed by Arenas, jumped up and waved the white towel in his hand vigorously.

Although Phil Jackson's face was as calm as ever, he secretly screamed "It's dangerous" in his heart. At this time, the old fox's eyes on Arenas also changed, he did not object to the team's individual heroism on the field, but was very supportive, as long as you have the ability, you can occupy a place in his lineup.

Seeing that the ball was scored, Arenas also let go completely, constantly waving his arms, and even began to provoke Knicks fans.

"This guy is still as arrogant as ever. Lamar muttered in his heart and put his mind on the court.

Lamar reached for the basketball, then lunged again.

Almost the same position as Arenas just now, Lamar also fired from a distance and hit the same shot.

Riding on the Timberwolves' offense, Arenas broke through to attract the defense and passed to James Posey, who scored on a layup.

The Knicks attacked again, and after Darm Porter got the ball under the basket, he knocked away Mark Blunt and scored with both hands.

The Timberwolves offense, or Arenas, he and Garnett blocked, burst inside to attract the defense, and then distributed the ball to the outside, and Ray Allen hit an empty three-point shot.
