What else did Duncan bring for this game, just look at Pierce being slapped by Duncan after he burst into the basket, he changed the defensive speed of the Spurs, the Admiral is on the court, the Spurs' interior defense is naturally the strongest, but the speed is not fast, without the Admiral, only Duncan alone, the Spurs' interior defense ability has come down, but its speed has been raised, for the Timberwolves, this is obviously the last thing to see is the speed of the Spurs.

Sure enough, as Zhuang Fei expected, ** Vicky did not replace David Robinson, still Duncan sat in the basket as a center, and except for retaining Kerr, everyone else was replaced by the main force, as soon as the Spurs' main force returned, the Timberwolves felt that they couldn't suppress it, and the Spurs set off a scoring mania in the earth-shattering cheers of the home fans.

Zhuang Fei sighed in his heart, ** Vicky is really scheming, but now ** Vicky is not old, he has already had such a deep calculation, it seems that ** Vicky can not save the slightest luck, ** Vicky's control and insight on the court are only stronger than him.

In such a situation, Zhuang Fei had to apply for a timeout, and the Spurs abandoned the regular twin towers and sacrificed a single tower similar to the Lakers, while O'Neal's dominance and Duncan's dominance were completely two different styles, but again, both had the ability to decide the situation of the game.

In the NBA, usually many people like to mention the dominance of players, but few people can say clearly what dominance is, generally speaking, dominance is to have the ability to decide the situation of the game and control the game, this is very abstract, if it is simplified a little more, a player with a group of CBA teammates, can still remain competitive in the NBA, then this is the most concrete manifestation of the so-called dominance, there is no doubt that there are very few people in the league who can do this. And among these few players, O'Neal and Duncan are undoubtedly the two most outstanding. This is also an important aspect of Garnett's current big gap with them, and Garnett is a little too little enough for the impact of the game at the moment.

Of course, it is too early to talk about Garnett's dominance now, Zhuang Fei's pause is to hope that Garnett can attack the interior more, even if there is no way to suppress Duncan, you have to put a little pressure on Duncan, and put a little pressure on the Spurs' interior defense, otherwise other players of the Timberwolves, such as Pierce and Jackson, will directly face Duncan's blocking when they cut in, if Garnett can contain Duncan, then other players of the Timberwolves can also play better.

For so many months, Zhuang Fei is very satisfied with Garnett's performance, although there is no improvement in the ability evaluation of the dynasty system, it is still 89, but there is no doubt that Garnett's progress is extremely obvious, which is mainly reflected in the improvement of his playing style, closer to the basket, and more selfless.

So this season, the Timberwolves can continue to win despite the fact that the interior is not strong, but with the dominance of Duncan in this game, Garnett will undoubtedly face a problem again, how to exert such a huge influence on the game like Duncan, for the strong Garnett, Duncan has always been the target he wants to surpass, in the face of this mountain, Garnett is a little powerless, but more excited. If you want to be the best player in the league, you have to step on the bodies of Duncan and O'Neal.

A big determinant of a player's growth is whether the player's heart is strong, for Garnett now, he is indeed a psychological and ideological giant, he wants to compete with Duncan under the basket, which is also what Zhuang Fei requires, but it is obvious that after the actual action, he and Duncan still have a huge gap.

The Spurs have a slight advantage at home, but the advantage is not too starry, and the two teams have been tied more than 10 times in this game, which can be said to be difficult to solve, until the final Timberwolves lost 109-112 on the road, and finally Pierce missed the three-point shot.

"Kevin, don't be so frustrated, I believe you will be able to reach or even surpass Duncan's heights in the future" Looking at Garnett, who was a little frustrated, Zhuang Fei said comfortingly.

"Coach, I know, I now understand where my way out, if I want to reach Duncan's height, I must be more determined to go to the basket, I must gain weight, I must play a good center, I can no longer be attached to the outside" Garnett's words made Zhuang Fei a little stunned

"Ding, Kevin Garnett has a comprehension in the game, and the ability value is +1" Hearing this electronic tone again, Zhuang Fei stayed directly, Garnett, who had not improved for several months, finally broke through 89 and reached 90, don't underestimate the difference, this is a level, 95-99 is an A+ player, and 90-94 is an A-level player, and the same 85-89 is an A- player, so to speak, Garnett broke through a level, not added an ability point.

From this moment on, the Timberwolves finally have a real superstar, and the ability value of more than 90 to reach the A level can be regarded as a superstar.

"Perhaps, that's the only consolation in this game, Garnett has finally grown." Zhuang Fei thought in his heart.

For Zhuang Fei in this game, Garnett's progress is the greatest consolation, but for Vicky, seeing Duncan's true strength is more important than the victory in this game, because it will have a huge impact on the Spurs' future games.

In the future, when the Spurs encounter a team with weak interior strength, they can completely let Duncan play with a group of substitutes, and let the Spurs' veterans rest at ease, which not only does not affect the team's record, but also solves the team's aging physical problems.

It can be said that the best in this game is the biggest winner, winning the game and winning the future.

"Congratulations, Greg, you won" After the game, Zhuang Fei smiled and shook the hand of ** Vic and said, this season has lost 3 times in four times against the Spurs, which makes Zhuang Fei very unwilling, but the current Timberwolves are indeed a little less interesting in terms of strength. But even so, Zhuang Fei still couldn't let go, after all, he missed an opportunity to reach the second place in the west.

"Haha, the Timberwolves are also very strong, I remember at the beginning of the season, when you played with us, you had no style at all, and of course there was no competitiveness, but it was just one season, no, it should be said that half a season, the Timberwolves have grown to the same height as the Spurs, Zhuang, you shocked me too much"

In the face of Vicky's praise, Zhuang Fei was a little stunned, in his later life, he had the impression that you, the coach, have always been a tyrant-like figure. Just when Zhuang Fei was still stunned, ** Vicky continued, it can be said that he is in a good mood now.

"Zhuang, I'm very optimistic about the future of your team, the future NBA is yours" ** Vicky patted Zhuang Fei on the shoulder and continued: "But the current NBA is the Spurs, Zhuang, before you reach the top of the NBA, I will help you keep the NBA." ”

Zhuang Fei felt a cold sweat in his heart, he seemed to have heard this sentence somewhere, Zhuang Fei was straight, his eyes became a little sharp, and his voice became a little cold.

"Mr. Greg, I don't just want the future of the NBA, I want the present of the NBA"

This time it was the turn of ** Vicky to be in a daze, this kid was so angry, but Zhuang Fei's momentum suddenly aroused his blood.

"Okay, I'd love to see who is the winner of our two teams this season, the Western Conference Finals, see you soon" ** Vicky's god also became serious, without the kindness just now. And after throwing this sentence, ** Vicky turned and left.

Okay, see you or leave, Zhuang Fei looked at the back of ** Vicky and said secretly in his heart.

"Zhuang, it's a shame to miss a chance to finish second," D'Antoni complained regretfully on the bus to Dallas.

Zhuang Fei also felt a little uncomfortable, after losing to the Spurs, the Timberwolves lost nine times, fell back to fourth in the West again, and were suppressed by the Trail Blazers, the Trail Blazers and the Timberwolves were both nine defeats, while the Spurs were eight defeats, and the Jazz were also eight defeats.

However, what makes Zhuang Fei's heart a little better is the last ten regular season games, and the Timberwolves' schedule is the best.

On April 15, the back-to-back Timberwolves defeated the Dallas Mavericks 101-95 away, although the Timberwolves were affected by the loss to the Spurs in the previous game, but the team still won the weak Mavericks with difficulty, and the Trail Blazers, who are in third place in the West, were not so lucky, they lost to the Rockets with a score of 76-86, and also gave up the third place in the West.
