222. The playoffs are approaching

"I don't know if our management was good or bad enough to draft Antetokounmpo with the No. 14 pick of a draft boy, but then we traded him without a bead. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"We're really unlucky, it's not a loss to trade a No. 14 pick in the draft to an advantageous pitcher like Meeks, but who knew that the Greek boy selected in this draft pick was actually that strong."

"A rookie who averages 6 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game, oh my God, what the hell did our management do."

"This rookie is really unsympathetic, and today he poured salt on our wounds, and actually got 20 points and 10 rebounds, God, let him have diarrhea......"

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

The Lakers players listened to the fans behind the bench talking about Antetokounmpo, and they didn't care about the game at all, and they didn't know whether to laugh or not.

It's uncomfortable not to laugh, it's a little inappropriate to laugh, and I'm embarrassed not to see the little boy Antetokounmpo! So they still choose to hold on.

The Lakers are too strong to surpass the Bucks, and today Kobe Bryant, Nash, and Gasol did not come, and they went directly to Apolis, Minnesota, where the back-to-back opponents are located.

So today's Lakers' starters are Marshall, McCollum, Liu Ren, Antetokounmpo, Thackeray, Antetokounmpo played the first start in his career, and the opponent was the Bucks who selected him and traded him away without playing a game.

When Liu Ren first went to Milwaukee for dinner, he heard fans talking about things related to Antetokounmpo, after all, small cities, the four major league teams are the Bucks, basketball is almost the national sport in this city, and the rise and fall of the Bucks affects the mood of most people.

Antetokounmpo, such a talented rookie, was given away by the team's cabbage price, and they were very resentful.

So when it came time for the game, the malicious Liu Ren deliberately made the ball for Antetokounmpo, constantly attracting the defense to give him the opportunity to hit the basket, Antetokounmpo scored 20 points for the first time in his career, and it only took three quarters.

As a result, Bucks fans have a deeper resentment, and this resentment is endless......

At 109-80, the Lakers slaughtered the Bucks to win six in a row, bringing their record to 53-18.

Because the Eastern Conference games started relatively early, starting at half past three in the afternoon, after playing the Bucks, the Lakers flew to Minneapolis, which was only an hour away, and it was only half past eight when they arrived at the hotel in Minneapolis, so they would not delay their rest.

When Liu Ren and the others arrived at the hotel, Kobe, Gasol, and Nash had just returned, and there was a special guest, who was the Timberwolves' top rebounding maniac Kevin Love.

The Timberwolves' players are much happier than the Lakers, who are taking on back-to-back Lakers with three days off to work.

Knowing that Kobe Bryant had come to Minneapolis first, Love invited them to a symphony recital.

Liu Ren and Thackeray were about to go out for a stroll and see the night view of Minneapolis in winter, and the beautiful winter night landscape here left a good impression on Liu Ren, and as soon as they put down their luggage, they met Lefu who sent Kobe Bryant and them back.

"Hi Liu, Robert, it's been a long time, the last time I saw it was the All-Star Game."

Lefu took the initiative to greet the two, and the way the American players greeted them was, of course, a warm hug.

"Haha, Kevin, this could be the last time we'll see each other this season." Thackeray hugged him very happily, after all, he was a native of North America, and Liu Ren could only hug him.

It's okay to hug a girl, but it's really awkward to hug a big man with a beard on his face.

"Don't mention it, I'm depressed, and I can't get into the playoffs with good data, I really envy you, I've never been absent." Lefou's face was sad.

That's interesting! Liu Ren found that there have been more and more players who have shown favor to them recently, but now the Lakers really have no shortage of interior lines, and Green will be back in a few days, and the team has Gasol, Whiteside, Antetokounmpo, and Green The interior combination of four people is quite enough, even if there is space in the summer, it will be a supplement to the point guard position.

And Lefu still has two years left on his contract, even if one of those years is a player option, Lefu will not be able to choose where he wants to go this summer.

Let the team send the inside line with excellent chemistry to trade for Lefou? None of the Lakers players on the floor wanted to do that.

After chatting with Lefu for a few words, Liu Ren and the others pretended not to hear Lefu's side knocks, and kept silent about possible cooperation.

The next day's back-to-back came quickly, the Timberwolves now have a record of 36 wins and 36 losses, which is quite good in the East, but in the West has completely disqualified from competing for the playoffs, their management has begun to think about the draft pick, Coach Adelman deliberately gave Lefu the opportunity to brush up the data, a group of outside shots around the outside, but the Forest is one of the teams with a three-point difference, the team's three-point shooting rate this season is only 31 percent, the league is at the bottom, and it is clear that Lefu brushes rebounds.

The Lakers also have a rebounding maniac on their side, Han Whiteside, as well as Gasol, who has averaged 12 rebounds per game in the last ten games, and Liu Ren, who has averaged 8 rebounds per game this season, and the game has become a rebounding battle.

The Timberwolves don't defend either, on the Lakers' side, Liu Ren and Kobe Bryant bomb an inside, a mid-range wave shot, and Love grabs rebounds alone, and the Lakers have always occupied the advantage on the court.

However, Lefou's rebounding is really powerful, and his scoring ability is also very good, and he got 33 points and 18 rebounds under the siege of Liu Ren, Gasol, and Whiteside.

That was thanks to the Timberwolves who were made 8-of-31 from three-point range.

However, Whiteside has 16 boards, Gasol has 9 boards, and Liu Ren has 11 boards, and the Lakers still have a rebounding advantage.

The Lakers are full of energy to run for 60 wins, and the Timberwolves rush to the draft pick to brush up on Lefou's data, and the final result is very happy, the Lakers easily defeated the Timberwolves 105-90 to win six in a row, and Lefu also got a good hand.

Liu Ren understands the Timberwolves' thoughts, they are ready to completely rebuild, and Lefu is the best trade chip.

With 54 wins and 18 losses, the Lakers continued to soar.

The March game officially ended after the Timberwolves, leaving only ten games left in April, with the Lakers getting two days off.

……

"Can't the Alliance be kind to us?" Liu Ren once again wanted to hit someone because of the schedule.

The Trail Blazers, Kings, Mavericks, Clippers, Rockets, Thunder, Warriors, Grizzlies, Jazz, Spurs, except for the Kings and Mavericks, are all teams that are expected to enter the playoffs at the beginning of the season!

Now in these ten teams, except for the inexplicable sinking of the Jazz and the continued rot of the Kings, everything else is difficult to deal with!

In the next ten games, Liu Ren didn't dare to be careless at all, and if he was not careful, he might not be able to win 60 wins!

One point is very crucial, it's April, and it's time for the strong teams to abuse the weak teams to compete for the win, only their opponents are all strong teams, and there are three back-to-back, no wonder Liu Ren is crazy.
