In this first quarter of the game, the Lakers played with the momentum of the youth army. On the Timberwolves' side, Butler seems to be still observing his new teammates, and he didn't even make a shot after a quarter, which also made Wang Chengkong have some strength but couldn't use it.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led by 10 points at 30:20.

In the second quarter, both sides sent substitutes, and Wang Cheng also went out to rest, until there were 3 minutes left, Wang Cheng and Butler returned to the court at the same time.

The Timberwolves attacked, and the Kings quickly settled into position, closely following Butler.

"I'm going to start, brother." Butler whispered, sinking low and reaching for the ball.

"Is it finally going to start?" Wang Cheng was looking forward to it in his heart, and he was always excited to play against the masters.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of physical confrontation and muscle collision made the surrounding teammates worry.

The opponent was taller and stronger than him, but Wang Cheng still stepped down and withstood Butler's back with his chest.

Butler was a little surprised by Wang Cheng's toughness, and after a few pushes, he still barely managed to get into the three-second zone, finding the right time to make a feint of the shoulder.

Sensing that the center of gravity of the defender behind him seemed to shift, Butler immediately turned around and prepared to shoot.

"Smack!"

A ruthless iron hand reached out, slapping the ball off as he just turned to face the basket.

"Beautiful! Wangcheng's precise slicing ball went straight from Butler's hand! Yang Yi shouted excitedly.

Wang Cheng took the ball and launched a counter-attack, and after advancing to the frontcourt, he found Kuzma in the air.

People to the ball!

Wang Cheng made a quick pass and assisted him to score two points easily.

When the assist arrived, Wang Cheng clenched his fists excitedly, and was just about to turn around and prepare to return to defense, when he found a pair of wolf-like eyes staring at him.

Although there were no words, there seemed to be a depression around Butler, and Wiggins, who was next to him, also sensed his emotions, and even looked at him a little evasively.

"Wang Cheng's steal just now made Butler very faceless, let's see what kind of response the latter will make!" Ke Fan commented.

Sure enough, after the offense and defense exchanged, Butler asked for the ball again at the top of the arc.

Wang Cheng pressed forward step by step, wanting to directly cut off his ability to catch the ball.

The two secretly battled, and in the end, Butler got stuck in front of Wang Cheng with the advantage of strength, and finally received the pass.

"You're well guarded." Butler said earnestly as he struck a tri-threat pose.

"I know." Wang Cheng replied lightly.

"But, the NBA is not that simple."

As soon as the words fell, Butler directly pulled up and shot!

Wang Cheng jumped quickly, but the disadvantage in height and bounce prevented him from forming a block.

The basketball flew to the basket in a very flat arc, bounced off the back eaves, and then fell into the net.

"Hey, Butler's shot is really tough, although there is some luck in it, but this is an a

swe

Ball can be regarded as a lesson for Brother Cheng. Yang Yi said with a smile.

No one can be successful in the NBA, and Yang Yi is looking forward to Wang Cheng's reaction after being deflated.

Wang Cheng's reaction was... No response.

Isn't it just a three-point score? Although Wang Cheng is confident, he is not arrogant enough to think that he can lock up an All-Star player in his prime.

Keep a normal mind and find the field later!

Wang Cheng ignored Butler, who was glaring at him after the goal, and ran straight to the frontcourt.

The Lakers attacked, and the ball brother passed the ball to Randle on the inside, who singled Tai Gibson.

Both of them are short and stout insiders with strength, Randle hit his back twice and didn't find a chance, and when he looked up, he just saw Wang Cheng on the weak side with the help of Lopez's cover, got rid of Wiggins' defense, and immediately passed the ball out.

But his passing level is comparable to that of Wangcheng during the summer league, the ball is low and urgent, and the angle is extremely weird.

Fortunately, when Wang Cheng practiced passing against the wall before, he often passed such a ball to himself. At this time, he quickly lowered his waist to scoop up the ball, and raised his hand to hit the "Xiao Wang Flying Knife".

"Huh~"

The ball brushes into the net again.

After the goal, Wang Cheng looked at Butler in the same way, and the corners of his mouth curled proudly.

"Another hint of a ball! The game is getting better and better, I wonder what will happen next? Yang Yi said excitedly, obviously he was very satisfied with Wang Cheng's psychological quality of not being shocked.

"Andrew."

Butler looked at Wiggins, who failed to defend but still looked calm, and suddenly hated that iron could not be made of steel, but now was not the time to communicate, he could only find a way to solve the problem first.

"Huh?" Wiggins wondered.

"I'll defend him next." Butler said directly, without any explanation.

"Hmm... Good. Wiggins didn't think much of it and agreed.

Turning around, Wangcheng confronted Butler again.

This time, Butler chose to attack from outside the three-point line with the ball, and his style was simple and direct, with no superfluous movements.

After a few simple drums, Butler already understood that it was difficult for him to dribble past Wang Cheng, so he found the right time to accelerate directly, intending to rely on his body to force Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng clinged to Butler without giving an inch, but due to the disadvantage in strength, he still couldn't stop his pace and was fouled.

After the whistle blew, Wang Cheng slapped the basketball fiercely and was eaten twice in a row, which made him a little annoyed.

For no other reason, Wang Cheng discovered a flaw in his defense end: a lack of strength.

There was only one way to deal with this kind of Butler power player: predict the direction of his travel, and then make a steal before he could put his shoulder against himself.

Because once he was seized from the position, Wang Cheng couldn't even release [Death Entanglement].

Butler hit both free throws, and the battle between the two continues.

In between his free throws, Brother Qiu walked up to Wang Cheng and patted him on the back, encouraging: "Wang, let it go, I'll pass the ball to you." ”

"Thank you." Wang Cheng nodded.

The Lakers attacked, and Brother Qiu still sat in the backcourt, combing the offense.

In the corner of the court, the royal city has been entangled by Butler.

The physical oppression inflicted by Butler made Wang Cheng understand why his previous opponents hated him so much.

Wang Cheng knew that with his current level of dribbling, it would be difficult to single Butler, and he could only rely on running in exchange for shooting opportunities.

Fortunately, he has the blessing of [Physical Monster] and the support of his teammates, plus the unsightly defensive habits of other Timberwolves players.
