The first leg of the playoffs
The next day, the Thunder ushered in the first game of the playoffs at home, the opponent was the Minnesota Timberwolves, who ranked eighth in the West, Durant and others arrived at the arena very early, everyone was waiting for Coach Brooks' arrival, and Coach Brooks pushed the door in not long after Chen Junhao arrived.
As soon as he came in, Coach Brooks looked at his players with a smile and said, "Is it all early, how about the boys, are you confident in today's game?"
Everyone shouted excitedly: Yes
Brooks looked at the energetic players and smiled, and then Brooks told everyone about tonight's tactics, and then asked everyone to train and called Chen Junhao to walk out together, came to the coach's office and sat down.
Coach Brooks said: Junhao, don't you still play as a starter in today's game, this is a playoff game. I've gotten used to playing as a substitute these days, and besides, my cooperation with the second team has been quite tacit, and Harden has also adapted to the starting lineup, and the temporary change is not necessarily a good thing for the team, and the temporary change is also a sign of distrust for Harden, so I think it's better to keep it as it is, Chen Junhao said seriously. After Chen Junhao finished speaking, Coach Brooks thought about it and nodded, Coach Brooks said: What you said also makes sense, so let's maintain the status quo, but your playing time can't be as less than in the regular season, after all, the rhythm of the game still needs to be controlled by a person, Wei Shao is still a little frizzy in this regard, and Harden is also inexperienced, so your playing time can't be about 20 minutes, I'm still a little worried about your body, Although you don't say it, everyone can see that although the injuries on your body are healed, the wrist and foot injuries are likely to be injured again if you are not careful, and the team doctor also said that this is the first round, and I believe that the strength of the team to win the Timberwolves is not a problem. Well, I know I'll pay attention, and I hope that winning the championship again won't hurt me so easily, Chen Junhao said with a smile. Let's go, let's go out, the first game of the playoffs will start in the evening, you can also go to training with everyone, Coach Brooks walked out of the office with Chen Junhao after speaking.
