"Defend, defend, watch defend"

On April 22, 2000, at the Target Center in Minnesota, Trail Blazers head coach Dunleavy shouted at the Trail Blazers players on the court, but even if he shouted through his throat, he finally found that the people on the court still didn't stop him at all, and there was no intention of changing what they should do or how they were.

Dunleavy knew he couldn't control the team, and when he entered the playoffs this year, he also knew that his team was no match for the Timberwolves, and he also knew that he was likely to leave after this season.

But even if Dunleavy thought so in his heart, he couldn't just watch his team fall behind so much and ignore it, he could lose, just like in the last game, the Trail Blazers lost by 10 points, such a score is acceptable.

But now? In this second game with the Timberwolves, the game was only played in the third quarter of the Timberwolves, and the Trail Blazers players on the court were like sleepwalking on the court, with no defensive attitude at all, in fact, the Trail Blazers' defense was not bad, and even in previous seasons, it has always been the top five defensive teams in the league, and each of the Trail Blazers players has a good individual defensive ability, as long as they are a little serious. The Timberwolves couldn't have taken a 30-point lead without the end of the third quarter. And the current Timberwolves are not because of the state of the explosion, today's state of the Timberwolves is very ordinary.

"Mr. Dunleavy, I think you better stop shouting, it's useless"

Seeing that Dunleavy was still shouting at the Trail Blazers players on the court, the assistant on his side was a little weak to persuade, this kind of thing was already obvious, and he just called a timeout. The head coach also laid out the tactics to deal with it, but the style of play of these players on the court did not follow what Dunleavy had laid out, especially Rasheed Wallace, who was the team's most defensive ability. This is an inside line with extremely good defensive ability, but this guy is simply walking now, and even stood there stunned after seeing Sabonis on the side being broken through. Even after seeing Sabonis defeated, the guy was still gloating.

In fact, many people know that Sabonis and Rasheed Wallace have a vendetta, but it is almost unreasonable for a private vendetta to vent on the court, but that's it, Dunleavy also has no way to take Rashid Wallace, even now Bunch Wells is always one step past Dunleavy by Jackson, there is no way, these guys have now completely degenerated into a group of gangsters.

"Hey"

In the end, Dunleavy sighed helplessly and returned to his seat in a daze, while the assistant on the side shook his head again, and this assistant was also extremely sympathetic to the former Lakers head coach.

In many teams in the NBA, a team's defensive ability only depends on the player's own defensive attitude, such a team is generally a team with no defensive system, and the Trail Blazers are such a team from this game. They don't have a defensive system, they defend by individual ability, and when their attitude is extremely bad, their defense collapses completely. In fact, the same is true of the Timberwolves, who do not have a defensive system, but unlike the Trail Blazers, every player in the Timberwolves has excellent professionalism and defensive attitude. This makes the Timberwolves the best in the league in offense, but also extremely good defensively. …,

Trail Blazers small forward Bunch Wells received a pass from Stoudemire and just dribbled a step outside the three-point line to face Pierce's defense is a dry three-point shot, Wells' offense is special in this game or this series, and most of this forced shooting is a pop-up frame and falls into the hands of Nash, this kind of long rebounding is not easy for both teams to grab, but the Timberwolves' luck is better, and most of the long rebounds fall into their hands. Those rebounds even gave the point guard a triple-double in the last game.

Nash didn't dribble at all after winning the rebound, just threw it at the backcourt of the Trail Blazers, Pierce was already easy and fast, and Bunch Wells was still by Pierce's side just now, and at this time, Bunch Wells watched Nash throw the ball and Pierce stood stunned without a trace of reaction, and what was even more speechless was that only Pippen chased Pierce from behind the side of the five Trail Blazers players on the court, and the other four all stood in the Timberwolves' half of the court and watched, It seems that Pierce's offense has nothing to do with them this time, and the Timberwolves' center Sabonis originally wanted to return to the defense, but stopped after taking two steps, because Pierce had already dunked at this time, and Pippen was also standing at the top of the arc of the Trail Blazers' half at this time, looking at Pierce hanging on the basket with his hands on his waist and a confused face. At his current speed, it was really difficult for him to chase from behind Pierce, and even chasing Pierce, who originally belonged to Wells' defense, from such a distance when he was at his peak, made him powerless.

"Hehe, what a good bunch of teammates"

Thinking of the current situation of the team, the corners of Pippen's mouth twitched, and then looked back at Bunch Wells, who was supposed to defend Pierce, with a little anger, but when Pippen saw Bunch Wells' disdainful and indifferent face, he sighed and finally shook his head. He is the nominal boss of the team, but he really doesn't want to do this boss, he would rather be in a team and quietly retire with a contract of 10 million yuan than suffer here.

This kind of scene is not the first time this game or this series has appeared, but it has appeared many times, the whole world knows that the Timberwolves' offense and defense are fast-paced, especially the Timberwolves' fast break after hitting is the world's first, the Trail Blazers have no reason not to know, but this group of people has no intention of limiting the Timberwolves at all.

"How did this group get into the playoffs? Jazz was so unjust by being squeezed down by them. Are they really just a bunch of players who play with passion? Zhuang Fei looked at the Trail Blazers' players on the bench and frowned.

Zhuang Fei now feels that he is really overestimating the professionalism of this group of Trail Blazers players, it is obvious that this group of people is a group of extremely emotional players, in the NBA there are actually many emotional players, such as Garnett of the Timberwolves, this person's temper is not very good, for these emotional players can do anything when they are emotional, they can also beat any team. Of course, the reverse is also true, such as the current Trail Blazers players. But for Garnett of the Timberwolves, he will never be in such a situation as a Trail Blazers player on the court.

"Coach, isn't it good for the Trail Blazers to play like this, and we also win easily."

Zhuang Fei was a little dissatisfied with these Trailblazers players on the field. But this dissatisfaction can only represent him personally, Stephen Green next to Zhuang Fei is very happy, this is the first time he has accompanied Zhuang Fei as the first assistant coach to play the series, for him only to win is enough, and Green has the same mentality as more than 20,000 Timberwolves fans on the scene, when they see the Timberwolves leading by a big score, and the score is getting bigger and bigger, with the increase in the point difference, these Timberwolves fans are also getting more and more excited. …,

Zhuang Fei listened to his disciple's current words and shook his head with some sighs.

In fact, there was no suspense in this game at the beginning of this game, and after the first quarter, this completely unguarded team let the Timberwolves score 41 points in a single quarter, and the second quarter also let the Timberwolves score 40 points. By the end of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers had trailed the Timberwolves by 47 points 75-122 on the road, and the Timberwolves all three quarters of the game were 40 or more in NBA history, and the Timberwolves were the only team in NBA playoff history to blast more than 40 points in three consecutive quarters of a game.

"I think it must be painful to be the head coach of such a team," Zhuang Fei looked lightly at the bench of the Trail Blazers and sighed.

The game was completely garbage time at the end of the third quarter, and when the fourth quarter began, Zhuang Fei withdrew all his main players, and only Crawford was left on the Timberwolves court. Reed, Jackson, Ginobili and Bowen, this is a full-back formation, in the second half of the regular season this season Zhuang Fei often used such a formation, in fact, in last year's Olympics Carter-led Dream Four full-back formation gave the world a big surprise. Zhuang Fei also has some experience with this formation, so after Reed's recovery, Zhuang Fei has been letting the Timberwolves players practice like this, compared with the previous conventional tactics, this set of tactics is stronger in terms of offensive ability, of course, the opposite is naturally the defensive ability will be worse, of course, for the second team based on offense and point grabbing, it is also okay to sacrifice defense in this way.

Of course, the Timberwolves' all-guard tactics are much worse than Dream Four, after all, now Ginobili can't compare to Carter, Crawford is also Kobe's poor version, and Reed can't compare with Pierce, even so, it is extremely easy for the current Timberwolves to clean up the current Trail Blazers.

So at the end of the fourth quarter of this game, the Timberwolves scored 162 points, and the shooting rate was as high as 65%, while the Trail Blazers scored only 96 points, and the Timberwolves had 9 people score double-doubles in this game, 5 people scored 20, and Nash delivered 22 assists in the first three quarters of this game, and the best player in this game is also Nash, which is also Nash's best in two consecutive games in this year's playoffs.

Of course, for the Trail Blazers, their 65-point loss to the Timberwolves also set a record for the most losses in NBA playoff history, and this shameful record will surely stay with this group of players for a lifetime

At the press conference after the game, the atmosphere was a little weird, and only Zhuang Fei's angry voice was heard in the entire news hall.

"It's the most rubbish team I've ever seen and the most rubbish group of players I've ever seen, so I'm disappointed with the game"

At the post-match press conference of this game, Zhuang Fei said something that surprised these people under the surprised eyes of Dunleavy and all the reporters.

Originally, everyone thought that this post-game press conference would be a place for Zhuang Fei to celebrate, but they didn't expect that Zhuang Fei would shoot at the Trail Blazers, the Trailblazers played very rubbish in this game, which is what everyone saw, but Zhuang Fei should not say this as an enemy team head coach, but these reporters were relieved when they thought of the relationship between Zhuang Fei and the Trailblazers now, and even some reporters were wondering if Zhuang Fei was ready to run Dunleavy now, not only reporters now think so, but even Dunleavy is like this, When a team plays like this, everyone thinks of the coach.

"Mr. Zhuang, are you talking about Coach Dunleavy's command problem?"

"It has nothing to do with Mr. Dunleavy, he's a very good coach, in my opinion he didn't do anything wrong, what disappointed me was the players on the Trail Blazers, they didn't have a bit of execution, you know, most of them are some of the best players in the league"...,

"I don't see in them the work ethic that you should have as a professional, it's a bunch of selfish people who are just going for themselves, they shouldn't be in the playoffs at all, and if they still behave like this in the next game then I think the Trail Blazers fans don't have to go to the stadium for the next game, and they don't even have to turn on the TV, which will pollute your eyes and make you hate the sport of basketball."

Dunleavy looked at Zhuang Fei, who was now getting more and more excited, and his heart warmed for no reason, thinking that in the entire NBA, only the Chinese in front of him could understand his difficulties. Michael Dunleavy is grateful to Zhuang Fei now, but Zhuang Fei is still talking again, without the slightest intention of stopping. In the face of Zhuang Fei's sudden frenzy, these reporters on the scene were also very excited, there was no big selling point in the first round of this year's playoffs, and there was little news material, but Coach Z was obviously helping them by making such a drama now, and even some reporters on the scene thought about the title of the play. Of course, Zhuang Fei definitely didn't think about what kind of mood the reporters were in now, but continued to roar.

"In my opinion, no coach in the league would want to be the head coach of such a team"

When Zhuang Fei finished saying this, he threw his sleeves and left under the excited eyes of all the reporters in the audience. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
