Chapter 296 [Attendance is record-breaking, why worry about not winning the game?] 】

The Timberwolves currently have a 16-14 record and were just overtaken by the Suns at 17-13.

The two teams were close in results and the game was full of gimmicks, with a total of 20,415 fans pouring into the arena at the Target Center, setting an all-time record for the number of attendance at the Timberwolves' home court.

The current Kevin Garnett is not the Brooklyn Wolf King with the blood of the Hulk, and his loyalty has touched countless people. He's super popular, currently ranked third in the Western Conference Forward vote behind Duncan and Nowitzki, and has a good chance of being a starter.

Another Timberwolves All-Star player, Wally Szczerbiak, the team's face bearer, unfortunately missed due to a foot injury.

Well, this is a record-breaking attendance, and many fans are coming for the Suns, hoping that the two sides will go on a fierce offensive and put up a few more open dunks in this game.

In the outside competition, the Timberwolves are a bit miserable, Trill Brandon chose to retire in the summer, his contract will not expire until 2004, and the Timberwolves have to pay him an annual salary of 10.18 million this season, and his salary is credited to the salary space, which makes the Timberwolves unable to renew Billups in the summer.

Szczebiak has not been released in his rookie season and his annual salary is only 2.93 million, and the Timberwolves' total salary this season is still as high as $59.52 million.

This season, the Timberwolves' starting point guard is Troy Hudson, who is 185cm tall and weighs 77 kilograms, and entered the NBA out of draft, and this is his sixth season in the league, and last season he played at the peak of his stats for the Magic, finishing with 11.7 points, 1.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 22.9 minutes.

It's a convulsive, point guard figure, and a quarterback soul. He looks like an all-star when his hands are hot, and with a pigtail hairstyle like a madman, the audience will be hooked, and it feels like he is the one size smaller Sprewell. However, when he doesn't feel good, he will make the opponent addicted, with this kind of undercover agent, why worry about not winning the game?

Hudson is also recognized as a defensive black hole, his physical fitness is very poor, his speed, power, and bounce are average, and he mainly relies on shooting to score. He played very wildly, so he lost the draft that year and never practiced defense well. Today he wants to face Guo Xu, and the gap is huge.

CCTV5 broadcast the game live, and the commentator Zhang Reasonable said: "I think Guo Xu is going to break out today, he has been fighting the Timberwolves since he entered the NBA, and now that the veteran Brandon is gone, his offense will become easier." (Brandon: I didn't, I'm still alive.) )

Xu Jicheng said: "How to prevent the Timberwolves from the Sun's counterattack is a big problem, Xiao Si and Marion are running too fast. ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "I think Garnett will definitely be able to prevent one, this Xiao Si doesn't want to get a high score today, he must be prevented, if he breaks out again, it will be difficult for Yao Ming to win the best rookie." (Stoudamayer: Who are you scolding?) )

It's a pity that Zhang Reasonable's wish is not easy to come true, Guo Xu is ready to help Xiao Si brush the data, every game.

Xiao Si is not only Guo Xu's teammate, but also an agent with him, and the two will play together for a long time in the future. As long as Smalls stays healthy, the league will have a hard time finding a better interior player than him offensively.

In the 21st century, O'Neal and Nowitzki's scoring ability is stronger than Xiaosi, and it is difficult for others to say.

This season, Guo Xu plans to help Xiao Si build confidence as soon as possible and grow up on the offensive end. In addition to practicing air cutting and running in the team, he also has to practice ball breakthrough and high mid-range shooting, and he also has to practice 30 three-point shots in the middle every day.

Xiao Si's shooting is very unstable now, but Guo Xu knows that he can practice it, in his previous life, his shooting touch was very soft, once he practiced his shooting well, the offensive end is a super killer.

Fans who watched the game early know that in the 06-07 season, Stoudemire was selected for the annual team as a center forward, while Yao Ming only played 48 games and was relegated to the second team.

This is the closest Yao Ming has come to a season, and after losing this opportunity, with the impact of injuries and the rapid growth of Dwight "Warcraft" Howard, Yao Ming will find it difficult to challenge for this honor.

Although the two have different styles of play, their career data are about the same, and Xiao Si is not inferior to Yao Ming in terms of personal ability. Guo Xu knew very well that he and Yao Ming would not play so well as a partner, because Yao Ming was too slow and could only fall into the half-court position.

Suns starters: Guo Xu, Joe Johnson, Kirisek, Marion, Stoudamire.

Timberwolves starters: Troy Hudson, Kendall Gill, Gary Trent, Garnett, Nesterovich.

The Suns intend to fight for victory on offense on the premise of opposing each other's lineups, and the Timberwolves are the usual starting lineup.

Garnett jumped the ball to win against Smalls, and the game began.

The Timberwolves blocked the offense, Hudson got rid of Guo Xu under Garnett's cover, and took a step to be blocked by Joe Johnson to break through the route, Garnett received the pass in the air, squeezed Guo Xu away, and Xiao Si blocked his way.

The Sun arranged joint defense today, in addition to Guo Xu's position is more free, the other four people are responsible for regional defense, so that there will be no chaos, Xiao Si can also do the help defense, and he will be on the player when he arrives nearby.

Garnett leaned his back against Xiao Si, turned around and stepped back to shoot a jumper, and the shot was very high. It's a pity that he met Xiao Si today, who likes to jump very much, and jumps very high.

Xiao Si jumped with all his strength without hesitation, and directly covered the ball, if Garnett made a feint, the ending would be completely different, Xiao Si was nine out of nine fouls by Dangfei.

Guo Xu picked up the basketball and turned around to launch a fast attack, hitting the ground and passing the ball from Hudson and Nesterovic to the front court in the run. Marion took the lead and shook off Nestrovic two meters away, jumped up to catch the ball, and smashed the ball with both hands.

2-0, Guo Xu sent the first assist.

The Timberwolves attacked, still playing blocking and dismantling tactics, Garnett shared the ball after covering, and Nesterovic singled out Marion, turned and shot wide near the basket.

Nesterovic has been aggressive on offense this year, putting up a career-best 11 points and 6.5 rebounds, but he's not as efficient as a blue-collar player. It's good because he's in a contract year and wants to get a big contract at the end of the season.

Even an ordinary interior player like Nesterovic can't look down on the Timberwolves, and he can't wait to finish this season and leave.

It's a pity that his ability is really limited, and Marion, who is half a head shorter than him, is not absolutely sure, which makes the home fans very disappointed, and Ska Jr. grabbed the rebound in the backcourt.

The Timberwolves players returned to defense quickly, Guo Xu controlled the ball and stabilized the rhythm of the position, and played blocking and dismantling with Xiao Si in the middle.

The Timberwolves' defensive tactics are man-to-man, and the person who is marking Xiaosi is Garnett, Guo Xu broke through with the ball on the left side, attracting Garnett to change defense, and brought it to the corner position and passed to Marion who ran from the baseline to the line on the left side.

At this time, Xiaosi cut to the basket to attract Nesterovic's attention, and Hudson and Garnett wrapped Guo Xu together. He shook the ball out of the periphery, and there was immediately a large gap on the field.

It was a very simple close-range shot, Marion hit a 70-degree jumper and hit a solid three-pointer.

5-0, Guo Xu's second assist.

Hudson showed a poor sense of defense, Guo Xu was closest to Marion after the ball, but he didn't react at all, obviously he could go out and interfere with the shot when he turned around, and his height was at a disadvantage, which was better than nothing.

The Suns easily took the lead at the beginning, and the difference in strength between the two teams was too obvious. (https:)
