Two days later, the Timberwolves host their second preseason opponent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It was also Luddon making his first appearance on the Timberwolves' home court of the season, the Target Center.

Summer league was played in Las Vegas and the first preseason game was played in Indiana, and many Minnesota fans haven't had a chance to watch Lu Deng play live.

The opportunity came, and the first opponent was the visiting Philadelphia 76ers.

Tickets sold out within 10 minutes. Timberwolves general manager Milt Newton especially regretted that he should have doubled the price when he knew he should have raised it!

Now it seems that as long as Lu Deng is here, the tickets will not be sold!

……

In the locker room, assistant head coach Ryan Sanders brought a scouting report from the 76ers and had a copy for each of them.

Lu Deng looked at it, good guys, the people who can barely be named are all on the injury list, and this year's rookie Joel Embiid is reimbursed for the season; Nolens? Knoll doesn't know when he'll make a comeback; There is also Michael Carter Williams, who has made a slight name for himself, is also on the injury list.

Lu Deng, who is not on the injury list, does not know any of them. What Brandon Davis, Luke Bamot, Tony Roten, Alexei Shevid, Henry Himes......

I used to think that the Timberwolves were rotten, and the 76ers' cards were even worse, and they were all rotten.

It's really hard for the 76ers, endlessly rotten, almost becoming a joke in the league. This was not the case with the previous 76ers. Lu Deng watched Iverson play when he was very young, how dashing, how handsome, and played all over the league.

You look at the 76ers now, not to mention the ugliness, the game is still bad, I really think the 76ers should give money to every fan who comes to the scene to watch the game, thank them for enduring the scene.

"Ryan, who am I going to defend against then?" Lu Deng asked the assistant coach.

Ryan smiled: "Don't defend, these people let them go to the empty basket, and three can score one at most." ”

The crowd laughed.

Lu Deng asked again: "Who will guard against me?" ”

Rubio said as he changed his jersey: "I guess Prince Luke is defending you?" ”

"Prince Luke?"

Several of the Timberwolves' "old men" laughed, and Ryan said, "It's Luke?" Richard? Bamot, in the trade between My Wolf, the Knights and the 76ers, Luke and Sheved were sent to the 76 team, and he is said to be the son of a chieftain in Cameroon, Africa, so he is called 'Prince Luke'. ”

Rubio laughs, "He's still Joel Embiid's fellow countryman, and it's said he 'discovered' Embiid. ”

"He found Embiid?"

He said it himself, both of them are from Cameroon. Luke said he gave Embiid some advice in Cameroon three years ago. He was a Bucks player at the time, and he held a training camp, and when he saw Embiid play for the first time, he encouraged Embiid to practice basketball. ”

"Well, then, Prince Luke is still a Bole!"

"Who knows if he's bragging! Embiid said he had killed a lion with his bare hands, would you believe it? ”

"I believe it, there is a hero in our country, named Wu Song, who was drunk and killed a tiger."

"Wow!" The team members were stunned!

"Mysterious Africa, Mysterious China!"

Lu Deng looked at the scouting report and said, "Prince Luke played the small front or big front, and I can't get on top with him!" ”

Rubio said: "The family is a prince, his father is a chief, and he is also a government official in Cameroon, and Prince Luke has to bring an entourage when he goes in and out." Such a person, he doesn't care if you are on top or not! What rules does the prince have to talk about when he does things? Anyway, you don't have to get a cap on him, he's a good defender. ”

"Really? So I'm going to have to study him. But if he is so powerful, why is he being traded back and forth, why don't I know him after so many years? ”

Honest center Gurgui Dean said: "Richie is not joking, Luke was traded, he was angry, and he has long threatened to come back and capture Minnesota. And he's really tough defensively, so you have to be careful.

"Also, I have a Twitter following him, and he tweeted during the draft meeting, and he mentioned you in Twitter, and the wording was very polite, saying that Embiid is the champion, and it shouldn't be you. Yesterday he tweeted again, Yaoyao, you can see for yourself. ”

Dean said, finding the tweet from Luke Bamot yesterday on his phone, and handed it to Lu Deng, "This guy who can't help himself, he seems to be going to get along with you." ”

Lu Deng took the phone and looked at it, and Luke's Twitter wrote: "Don't ask me about the Chinese, I don't know him, Embiid is the strongest rookie, tomorrow I will prove that the Chinese is a paper lion, I will beat him out of the original form!" ”

"Paper Lion, haha, we call it a paper tiger in China! Whether it's a paper tiger or not, we'll see after the game. ”

……

At the pre-match press conference, Sanders brought Lu Deng to the press conference as usual.

76ers head coach Brett Brown is taking Luke Bamot with him. They really have no one to take with them!

The last press conference was one-sided with questions, and this time it was even worse than the last time, and all the reporters asked Lu Deng questions.

Local media in Minnesota first asked: "Luden, today is your home debut for the Timberwolves, will you continue to play magically?" ”

"You have to ask God about this, I can't be the master."

"What did you prepare?"

"The coach won't let anyone say who will be fined. Only He Himself can speak, and you can ask Him. Actually, I think it's so unfair! ”

Lu Deng's teasing of Sanders drew laughter.

"Do you know what nicknames you have now?"

"Don't scare me, what are they calling me?"

"That's more, the Chinese Emperor, the Wonder Boy, the King of Shooting Kings, the New Wolf King, that's right, TNT calls you the madman Lu Deng, and also calls you the 'King of Arrogance'!"

Lu Deng muttered in Chinese: "his uncle's TNT!" ”

"What do you mean?"

I mean to say, "TNT has a lot of humor. ”

The press conference became a one-man show for Lu Deng, answering more than a dozen questions, and the last question was asked by the Philadelphia 76ers' reporters:

"Luden, if it weren't for Joel Embiid's injury, maybe he would have been drafted by the Cavaliers, then you could have been selected by the 76ers, did you follow the 76ers before the draft? And what do you think of Embiid and the 76ers? ”

This question seems to be prosaic, and there is a faint hint of the sour taste of wanting to recruit Lu Deng to the 76ers, but in fact, there is a hidden murderous intention. If you don't answer well, you may hurt the Timberwolves and offend the 76ers, and you may even have a grudge against Embiid!

Absolute coercion is a provocative problem.

Lu Deng smiled and said: As far as I know, Philadelphia is a 'city of heroes', and the Philadelphia 76ers are a team full of heroes, how can I be qualified to evaluate it and play against the 76ers...... Actually, I'm here to learn......"

A group of reporters almost laughed when they heard the word "learning".

Good guy, let's talk about "City of Heroes" again, and let's talk about "studying" again, the last time I went to Indiana to "study", I didn't beat Indiana to death, and CJ Miles's pillow hasn't dried yet......
