Chapter 61: The Stormy Alliance

Fast forward to December 10, when the schedule is about a quarter of the way out, and the Timberwolves have a 12-9 record in eighth place in the West, the same record as the San Antonio Spurs in seventh place.

This season in the West has been extremely competitive, and the battle for victory has been intense, with everyone trying their best to win every game, even if that victory seems difficult.

The Timberwolves are the most surprising team this season, and the top eight teams in the West this year generally have a win rate of more than 55%.

With a quarter of the way through the schedule, the goals of the 30 teams in the league for the new season can naturally be seen, and there are only a few teams that are interested in the championship trophy. For most teams, they're either looking to play a bad game or they're starting to push for a playoff spot in the new season.

Now the situation in the East and West can be seen clearly, the Cavaliers have experienced two consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season, under the leadership of LeBron James, they have embarked on the road to rise, under the command of the little emperor, the Royal Knights have fought in the north and south, playing a 17-5 record, and now ranking first in the league, even the Los Angeles Lakers, who have a three-high lineup in the team, cannot be compared.

After a brief slump at the start of the season, the Emperor began to show his all-around performance on both offensive and defensive ends, and his increasingly terrifying all-around performance began to dominate the small forward position.

Everyone understands that LeBron James is evolving, he is no longer satisfied with the dream of an all-round warrior portrayed by the media, and his ambition can no longer be suppressed.

From entering the league in '03, for a total of six years now, he hasn't won a championship ring!

Dwyane Wade, who entered the league in the same year as him, had already received a championship ring in '06, a precious ring that changed the way people think about the '03 generation of players.

Before Wade's Heat won the championship, the media focus was always on Carmelo Anthony and himself, but he understood that Cameron could not be compared to himself.

All-round performance, terrifying physical fitness, with such conditions, as long as his ball skills go up by one point, the strength shown on the court is definitely three or four points.

This is not a mathematical calculation that one plus one equals two, he is destined that as long as he practices hard, the ceiling in the future will not be lower than Carmelo Anthony's, and it is not surprising that he will enter the Basketball Hall of Fame and become the next basketball superstar!

However, when Wade's supergod performance in April in '06 was stunned by the shooting guard who played desperately, they discovered that the '03 generation was more than just a two-man battle between LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony.

No one can ignore Dwyanwade! He has the same big heart, the same horror, the same insolvability!

Wade in '06 declared his strong position with his unstoppable performance in the finals!

Dwyanwade is a low-key guy who is quiet and reserved off the court, but when it comes to crunch time, he will be the best in the team!

Now there are people talking about the ranking of the 03 generation, and more and more people think that Wade, who was originally selected as the 5th pick, can become a star show steadily, and even, it is not impossible for the champion show to come!

This remark is not unpopular in the American basketball world, a championship ring gave Dwyane Wade too much halo bonus, and many people began to vote for Dwyane Wade in the face of the selection of the best players of the 03 generation.

This undoubtedly worries LeBron James, which threatens his dominance, and he desperately needs a championship ring to prove himself!

This year is undoubtedly the best opportunity, he has been suppressed for too long, Arenas' Wizards, the Eastern Motor City Pistons, and now the Green Shirts Celtics, one strong opponent after another is like a mountain in front of him, this season he played an undisputed performance, the Cleveland Cavaliers under his leadership is unmatched, 17-5 dazzling record leads the league.

"This year's Cavaliers are still competing for the championship, and no one can stop him!"

This is the strong confidence that LeBron James has shown this season, and many people seem to have foreseen the fierce battle in the playoffs.

Many of the top players in the league seem to be saddled with the same fate, and if they are not lucky enough to become parallel goods, they will have a glorious moment in their careers, make it to the Finals, and then suffer defeat.

O'Neal, Iverson, James, Howard...... Their fates are so similar, the first finals because of their youth and bitter swallowing the fruits of failure, some people after leaving their own team for many years, got the championship ring, some have struggled for more than ten years, when their careers are getting old, but there is no ring to accompany them.

LeBron James doesn't want to be like Iverson himself, and he doesn't want to leave his hometown and win a championship! He's got Akron in his blood, and he's going to win a championship in his hometown! In the land of your fathers, win your most glorious moment!

All eyes are on the Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers this season, they are looking forward to a repeat of the 23vs24 matchup, but they don't know that in distant Boston, a dark and thin man is enduring pain, gritting his teeth and practicing for the ball, and he is not willing to end like this, he wants to bring the city its 18th championship.

No one knows that in Oakland, far away in the Bay Area, there is a similar son of Akron who is struggling, but he has North Carolina blood in his body, and his future is confused and he can't see the direction clearly!

Maybe in the future he will be able to start a fateful battle with another son of Akron, or maybe he will regret the end......

In the icy Minnesota, Li Shihao and Lefu once again fell asleep, the long season was full of uncertainties, and all kinds of powerful opponents made them physically and mentally exhausted.

Failure, remorse, pain, joy, and glory are with them, and the young timberwolves are transforming into the next step of their growth.

They are like a young wolf pack, facing powerful opponents again and again, knocking down the enemy, biting them, fleeing again and again, dragging their tired and damaged bodies back here after victory after victory, silently **** wounds, silently looking forward to their strength!

“Strongisnotgoing，notexperiencedsuffering，wouldnotbebornrealWolfking!” So writes New York Daily News columnist Peter.

Strength does not happen overnight, and without experiencing hardship, the real wolf king will not be born!
