After the game, Li Shihao's face could not hide his tiredness, and when Derknowitz came to hug him with a gentle smile on his face, Li Shihao could only smile reluctantly.

He tried so hard to drive the tempo that he still struggled to lead his team to victory, which made him nervous.

Deknowitski hugged Li Shihao heavily, and whispered in Li Shihao's ear: "Bruce, you are very good, but tonight's goddess of victory has set her eyes on my side, you did your best, don't care too much!" ”

Li Shihao smiled bitterly, although he failed, but he did not lose the will to win, he muttered, "Dirk, there is one more game in two days, it is the last matchup between us this season, I will wait for you in Minnesota, I will not let you win again!" ”

Decknowitski smiled when he heard this, and when he heard Li Shihao's challenge, he still just smiled heartily, "Bruce, I'll wait, I hope you don't let me down!" ”

Li Shihao nodded when he heard this, glanced deeply at Dirknowitzki, and finally turned around and walked into the player's tunnel, his back was lonely until the darkness engulfed everything.

…………

Li Shihao deeply felt a sense of crisis, and he couldn't stop stirring in his heart, wanting to break through the heart artery.

Dek Nowitzki's terrifying offensive ability has not been crowned for many years, and he is still saddled with the infamy of "soft egg", and is regarded as an unqualified leader, but what can he do in the future?

Foreign players are generally discriminated against in the NBA. Lucknowitz is okay, at least there is a layer of white blood as a shield, Li Shihao is Chinese, and the status of Asians in the United States is even worse than that of blacks, and many bills of rights have not even been upheld to Chinese Americans, which shows the extent to which Chinese Americans are discriminated against in the United States.

Big brother Yao Ming finally gained a foothold in the NBA with his natural height and hard work. and became one of the few top centers in the league.

And he is in the most competitive guard position, he does not have an advantage in physical talent, and his diligence does not seem to be enough, how can he kill from the talented guard group in the West?

Not to mention winning the championship, it is even more difficult!

Li Shihao understands that there is not much time left for him, the players who can win the championship in the 96 generation have basically won the championship, but there are still many superstars in the 03 platinum generation who do not have a championship ring. Lee has a hunch that perhaps this summer, a big change in the free market will be brewing that will change the league.

03 Many stars of the platinum generation have chosen to test the free market this summer, and the rest of the stars have also joined this year's queue, the Celtics giants have won the championship The case has made many stars red-eyed, and many famous superstars are also ready to move, maybe once the summer is over, there will be several big three teams in the league that are fighting for the championship. At that point, the Minnesota Timberwolves' hopes of competing for a championship are even slimmer. What leverage is there to attract players to join and reinforce?

Minnesota is a small city, and the disadvantage of a small city is that it is difficult to attract stars, not to mention that the cold weather in Minnesota is hated by many players.

At the beginning of the season, the team's owner, Glengler, still revealed his plans to him, as long as he can show the potential of a superstar and even the quality of an MVP. Then even if he pays a hefty luxury tax, he will put together a championship roster for the Timberwolves.

It's just that, not to mention the regular season MVP, even the superstars seem to be far away from him.

A true superstar can not only lead the team to victory after victory in the regular season, but also carry the team forward in the thorny playoff journey.

That's the definition of a superstar!

And Li Shihao hasn't even touched the threshold of the playoffs. Not to mention playing dominating stats in the playoffs!

Now in the regular season, they have played the Dallas Mavericks three times, only winning the first game at the beginning of the season, and losing the last two games, giving the Dallas people the last laugh.

Lee understands that the final matchup in two days is the last chance, and if they can pull back a win at home, they won't be too demorally passive even if they meet the Dallas Mavericks in the first round of the playoffs.

The Mavericks are really strong, but it's better than facing the Los Angeles Lakers, who are more desperate and have no hope of qualifying.

The Timberwolves were all in full swing in Minnesota, and after a night's rest, they faced the Houston Rockets again in the home target center.

The start of the Timberwolves was not smooth, the whole team did not feel good, and suffered a cold period for the whole quarter, and the offensive end hit the iron many times, which was extremely embarrassing.

The Houston Rockets are no better, and this season the Houston Rockets have lost two of the team's most important pillars, Yao Ming and Maddy have missed most of the season, and the competitiveness has dropped significantly.

The problems exposed by the Houston Rockets this season are obvious, they have lost their usual order on the offensive end, and many times they are playing like headless flies, looking at the entire half, and unable to find a reasonable and reliable offensive playmaker.

Fortunately, Li Shihao's control ability has improved a lot compared to the beginning of the season, the Timberwolves are too young, and this season often encounters a young problem - cold hand, Li Shihao has gradually learned to improve the feel of his teammates through his own control ability.

After combing for most of the half, the Timberwolves successfully returned to the three-point shot in the bottom corner of the second half, hitting accurately, and Marc Gasol's singles under the basket were also quite effective, and he frequently succeeded.

Lee Se-ho and Ryan Gomez also scored a three-pointer from the outside in the second half to bolster the team's offensive firepower.

At this moment, the Houston Rockets encountered a crisis, and the Timberwolves' offensive end was completely opened, and the scoring offense was like a heavy heavy infantry, following the same pace, playing steadily, and scoring step by step to establish an advantage.

In the end, in the fourth quarter, the Timberwolves completely shattered the Houston Rockets' remaining one-point advantage and successfully overtook the score.

Scola had 20 points and 10 rebounds, and if the game was won, he would have been the best player of the game, and he was not willing to let the results of the night's work go down the drain and led a group of Rockets bench players in the middle of the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately, this wave of counterattacks did not last long, and was finally ruthlessly extinguished by the Timberwolves, and in the last minute, Battier's three-point long-range shot failed, and the Houston Rockets lost the last chance to overtake, and finally the Timberwolves took the game with a slight advantage of 96:92.
