"It's Andrew Wiggins again, and this is his third consecutive shooting of the game!"

At the Amway Arena, the home of the Orlando Magic, the commentator sitting in the commentary seat frantically output into the microphone: "With this goal, the Timberwolves temporarily lead the home team Magic 15-7 on the road!" ”

Wiggins almost took over the game in the opening stages of this game, not only scoring like crazy on the offensive end, but also returning to the defensive end, his help defense was very timely, and he was able to appear in the defensive position that head coach Tom Thibodeau asked him to appear in every time!

On the other hand, on the Magic side, Aaron Gordon, who is also in the small forward position, is not as eye-catching as Wiggins shows, after shooting two mid-range iron shots in the opening game, Gordon seems a little timid, and the Timberwolves have Karl Anthony Towns guarding the inside, causing Gordon not to break through easily.

After a few back and forth, the Timberwolves naturally had the upper hand.

Of course, the team's weak point in the game, the Magic head coach Frank Vogel off the court also saw it, Wiggins shot, he was also very decisive, and directly substitution.

Since the starting small forward is not performing well, you might as well try the bench.

Jeff Green replaced Aaron Gordon and DJ Augustin replaced Payton Jr., and it was clear that Vogel was also unhappy with Payton Jr.'s playmaking in several games.

After a few words with the two players who were substituted, Vogel turned his attention back to the field, this substitution was just an attempt, and he didn't think it would really solve the problem.

Sure enough, Vogel's substitution did not solve the problem, but made the Magic's offense stagnate, on the Timberwolves' side, Wiggins temporarily hid the edge, but Zach LaVine stepped forward, even burst into the shot, 15 points in a single quarter, plus Towns hook hand and mid-distance, the first quarter ended, the Timberwolves led the home team Magic by double digits on the road!

"Bang!"

At the end of the first quarter, back on the bench, Vogel threw the tactical board in his hand aside: "I don't have any tactics to tell you right now. ”

"Boys, look up at the score above the arena and see how many points you're behind!" Vogel was furious and waved his hand: "You let your opponent shoot 61.4% on your own turf, and you yourself only have 27.8%!" ”

Listing this set of data makes Vogel even more angry: "Do you know that today's opponent has only won one game so far this season? ”

"You know what it means to be 22 points behind in the first quarter?"

Yes, Vogel's anger is completely reasonable, because on this very field, the Orlando Magic trailed the Minnesota Timberwolves by as many as 22 points at 17:39!

They allowed their opponents to dominate their home court with a very high shooting percentage, with Zach LaVine and Andrew Wiggins contributing 15 and 11 points respectively, while the Magic's team-high score was only Serge Ibaka's measly 4 points!

"If you don't want to win, then I can give up this game!" Dropping the last sentence, Vogel did not give the players a chance to explain, and directly submitted the lineup list for the second quarter to the technical desk.

"Toot!"

With a whistle, the game between the Timberwolves and the Magic in the second quarter was about to start, but before the commentators on the sidelines came to their senses, there was a commotion in the audience!

"Look, it's CJ Watson!"

“Oh，My God！ If it weren't for my mobile app, I wouldn't even know there was such a player on the Magic team! ”

The fans exchanged their heads and expressed their shock, and indeed, it was too shocking for them.

Because at the beginning of the second quarter, the point guard discharged by Coach Vogel was actually CJ Watson!

"Wow, I guess I read that right, that's CJ Watson." Not only the fans, but now, even the commentators are confused: "This is his first appearance this season, I can't believe it, I almost forgot that he existed." ”

"Oh my God, I don't understand at all, Coach Frank actually put such a retired player on the field, is this a new tactic?" Another commentator also expressed puzzlement, he couldn't figure out what Vogel wanted to do!

However, his companion shook his head: "No, man, look at the rest of the Magic, I think it's a tactic called 'giving up.'" ”

At this time, Watson was followed by scoring guard Mario Hezonia, power forward Damyan Rudez, center Stephen Zimmerman, and small forward Wu Rui!

Except for Hezonia, who was selected by the Magic with the fifth pick in 15, the other two interior combinations, like Watson, made their first appearance this season!

"What the hell is Coach Frank Vogel doing, is this going to give up the game!"

Watching the team start to sort out the jerseys on the field and prepare for a good performance, even the fans at home couldn't bear it, and the Amway Arena gradually became noisy.

The fans also know the ball very well, even if a small number of fans were happy for a few seconds because they saw Wu Rui appear early, but after stealing the joy, they couldn't laugh, they understood that the team's current lineup was not here to win at all!

"I think Coach Frank is punishing the main players for their performance in the first quarter." finally figured out something, and the commentator was also helpless: "It seems that the young people of Minnesota can celebrate the end of the losing streak in advance." ”

Including the commentators, as well as all the home team fans on the scene, they all have a certain number of endings for this game, the lineup on the Timberwolves' side, although they won Wiggins and Towns, but LaVine, who was hot in the first quarter, is still on the court.

Coupled with Tyles Jones, Shabazz Mohammed and other bench bandits, the combat effectiveness is considerable.

Of course, even if the Timberwolves' lineup is less combative, it is still much stronger than the current lineup of the Magic team!

"Look at the faces of these guys, I don't know why Coach Frank would want me to play!" Feeling the disappointed eyes of the fans in the stadium, Watson, who appeared for the first time, did not feel happy at all, but his face stiffened: "Is this trying to embarrass us!" ”

"CJ, what are you talking about, the coach let us play, how can it be that we are embarrassed?"

Watson complained, and Wu Rui, who was standing next to him, was not affected by the fans on the sidelines at all, he tucked the corners of his shirt into his pants, jumped twice by the way, and warmed up.

Being able to play in the second quarter really made Wu Rui's heart excited, and after watching Zach LaVine and Andrew Wiggins' energetic performance in the first quarter, Wu Rui's heart gradually warmed up.

How much have I learned?
