Chapter 131 returns to the eighth

A graceful dunk, the perfect combination of strength and figure, this highly ornamental dunk instantly won a cheer and applause in the target center.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been in a vacuum since Garnett left Boston, and there are many fans in this cold city who expect their team to welcome a new young leader to lead the team to rise and create new glory!

Having been a playoff viewer for two or three years in a row, the box office of Timberwolves fans has become sluggish, fans empathize with the current situation facing the team, and the ticket prices are getting lower and lower year by year, making the Timberwolves management feel anxious, and Minnesota fans' desire for young superstars is also climbing step by step.

But this year was different, McHale drafted the Chinese guard from Syracuse University in the summer draft, and he wasn't conspicuous in the crowd at all, and God knows why McHale picked that kid at that time.

Minnesota fans learned that McHale gave up Europe's "golden boy" Rubio and North Carolina-born Tylawson to choose a Chinese-American point guard who played basketball in the NCAA for three years.

When I first saw the news, most Minnesota fans were in a bad mood, the 09 draft was a rare draft year, how many talented guards were among them, and the Timberwolves, who held three first-round picks, should have taken more initiative, but the Timberwolves gave up many options and insisted on choosing the Chinese kid.

Because of that six-overtime game?

That game was indeed very inspirational and upset, and the mainstream media in the United States unanimously praised the record-breaking game, but who values the true strength of the Chinese kid?

In the world of uncrowned kings where public opinion is paramount, valuable news is what they value. As for the strength of the players themselves?

Sorry, Whocare?

Before the 09th draft, the North American media hyped the Chinese boy because of the six-overtime matchup, which made the Chinese boy's draft market soar, and once reached the ranks of lottery signing.

But behind the sugar-coated shells. And how many people are optimistic about this mediocre-looking Chinese kid?

Maybe he'll fall to the end of the first round, maybe he'll be drafted in the second round, these are not the concerns of the media, which believes in the supremacy of profit.

Perhaps, when the two rounds of the draft are over, the Chinese kid has not been selected by a team, causing the biggest scandal in NBA history, so that the eye-catching news will attract the curious glance of these well-dressed reporters.

The urine nature of the media is like this, who can bring more reading, which news can create more value. Who will be the guest of honor for the media!

When the Timberwolves did use the sixth pick to pick the Chinese-American kid, many media outlets were already laughing, especially the Dallas media reporters, who even prepared a very mocking headline article to stimulate the painful hearts of Minnesota fans.

But when the Chinese kid is a dark horse from the NBA, Minnesota fans are the happiest, and the leader-like ability to lead the team is beginning to show in the Chinese kid. Timberwolves fans are from the bottom of their hearts!

Tickets began to run out of demand, and the Timberwolves' No. 11 rookie jersey became one of the best-selling items in Minnesota. American families on the streets and alleys more or less have a Chinese kid's jersey.

The Chinese kid conquered Minnesota with his performance!

But the Chinese kid is good at everything, that is, the dunk These ornamental goals are basically insulated in the game, and Minnesota fans have been looking forward to Li Shihao's dunk after seeing the air connection between Brewer and Li Shihao.

Li Shihao, who doesn't understand "affection", has always maintained a rational playing style, and he can't dunk without dunking, which can save physical strength and not affect the heat of the hand. Best of both worlds.

This is very bad for Timberwolves fans, like Kobe Bryant, Wade and other leading stars in the league will come to help with a few dunks, and even Derrick Rose, a sophomore rookie from the Chicago Bulls, will perform a few wonderful dunks in the game.

In the Garnett period of the Timberwolves, but will there be a dunk feast, Garnett as an interior star. Although the dunk action is not stretchy enough, it still is visually explosive by relying on the perverted bouncing force.

Li Shihao has become the darling of Minnesota City this season, but he has maintained fewer dunks, how can this not make Timberwolves fans itch?

When Li Shihao appeared to dunk again, there was a long cheer in the entire target center, and even a few cheerful and unrestrained young female fans held up placards, and the ambiguous and provocative words of encouragement on them made people blush.

Li Shihao felt the warm atmosphere of the audience, smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and made a stretching gliding action, and the cheers of the audience were even more jubilant.

Li Shihao smiled and stretched out his hand to point at Jet Li, who was watching the game on the sidelines, and made a signature Huang Feihong kung fu move, giving a thumbs up, causing the spotlights to flash non-stop.

Many media reporters present pressed their fingers numbly, but they still didn't notice it, looking at the wonderful moments in the camera, they only felt that waves of bonuses were rolling towards them.

As a result, the Timberwolves' home atmosphere was completely mobilized, and the Timberwolves' morale soared, and they won a wave of 8:0 in the subsequent offense, completely overtaking the score.

On the other hand, the Russian City Thunder, Kevin Durant, who had been hot for most of the game, finally encountered a scoring drought, and the outside jumper hit again and again, and the shooting rate dropped to the freezing point.

Although Durant's scoring ability has been greatly improved this season, he still relies more on jump shots to score, and without excellent ball-holding breakthrough skills, Durant's scoring ability at critical moments is still questionable.

Finally, the game was without the final suspense, and the Timberwolves were suppressed for most of the half, and the score disadvantage was wiped out in the final minutes.

When the final whistle blew, the Timberwolves successfully defended their home court with a score of 119-110 at home, and the entire target center was jubilant, and many fans cried tears of joy as if the team had won a big win in the playoffs.

After tonight, the Timberwolves officially overtook the Russian City Thunder and temporarily finished eighth in the West with a 25-18 record. (To be continued.) )
