Just after the opening, Pierce's wonderful goal made the atmosphere in the target center high, and for a while Trail Blazers head coach Dunleavy could only watch silently from the sidelines, but in his heart he did not waver in the tactics he arranged, no matter how beautiful Pierce's goal is, this goal is still only two points, and he also believes that Pippen will not let Pierce break through so easily, it can be said that he is not worried about the Timberwolves' style of play. He was even looking forward to Zhuang Fei's adjustment, but what disappointed him was that Zhuang Fei had no intention of adjusting at all, Zhuang Fei was still looking at the court with a smile on his face, and he didn't even move.

"I have to admit that Pierce's previous offense was wonderful, but that is not the Timberwolves' regular style of play, of course, I know that Pierce and Garnett and even Jermaine O'Neal have the ability to attack the position, but the Timberwolves don't need to use their weaknesses to attack other people's strengths, this is not wise, should they call a timeout, but I think Coach Z seems to be unmoved, could he have expected this change in the Trail Blazers in advance, shouldn't it?" Michaels finally calmed down, as a professional commentator, both basketball knowledge and mental adjustment skills need to be very strong, which is why many commentators can even pick up the whip by putting down the microphone directly.

"I think it's good to listen to now, and it's also very much in line with Coach Z's style, if it were me, I would do the same" Jordan smiled as he looked at the Chinese figure on the Timberwolves bench.

Michaels gave Jordan a puzzled look, then seemed to have thought of something. Then he said with a somewhat shocked face: "Is this deliberate by Coach Z?" ”

"Hehe, yes, maybe he was surprised that the Trail Blazers would have such a change, but obviously, he is very confident in the strength of the Timberwolves, and even if the Trail Blazers have such a change, he doesn't need to adjust. Wouldn't it be better to defeat the enemy with their strong points? This game was only the first game of the series, and for Coach Z he had enough buffer space for him to perform a gamble or experiment, and now the league has been rife with rumors that Zhuang Fei will not defend. Similarly, Zhuang Fei will not position and the impression that Zhuang Fei will not position the offense is mainly generated in the playoffs with the Spurs last season. At that time, the Spurs forced the Timberwolves to shoot only three-pointers from the outside. Now Coach Z is just going to tell everyone that even if he plays positional offense, he can play the Trail Blazers to death. If the Trail Blazers are really killed by the Timberwolves' positional offense in this game, then all their previous preparations for the Timberwolves will be nullified, then the Trail Blazers will once again change from active to passive throughout the series, and they still need to find a way to beat the Timberwolves, and the Timberwolves just need to follow the steps" Jordan smiled again after saying and said: "This is the terrible thing about Coach Z, he can always let his team take the initiative, and he can always force the other side to adjust, It's a terrible thing for a basketball game, which means that Coach Z is always on top of the game."

"Of course. Such speculation can only be based on the fact that the Timberwolves won this game, and from the perspective of strength, the Timberwolves and the Trail Blazers are close in strength, so it is still difficult to guess what the final direction of this series will be, but one thing is certain, as long as the Timberwolves win this game, they will step into the next round with one foot. If he loses, I'm sure Coach Z will have another way."

"I know him very well, he's a great gambler, and he's different from a lot of gamblers, he always likes to leave some cards at the end that can turn the game into a win, and that's why he always wins games. Last season, the Timberwolves ended up with no hole cards, but I believe that Coach Z will not make mistakes again this season" When Jordan finished talking with a smile, Michaels next to him was stunned, he never thought that this basketball god actually knew Zhuang Fei so well, and what he said in Michaels' opinion are things that can be verified, if Zhuang Fei hears Jordan's words, it is estimated that Zhuang Fei will be stunned for a long time, and even have a feeling of 'confidant' in Jordan's heart. …,

"You don't have to look at me like that, don't I often say I'm a die-hard fan of Coach Z? It's not fake, I've been studying him for three years, and I even think I'm no worse than Larry Bird if I were a coach, he always says that he is Coach Z's first protégé, but he's still far worse than me" Jordan said with a slight smile, and Michaels had a wry smile on his face. Coach Z, these two disciples are really big names. Even Michaels thought that if he could study it thoroughly, Zhuang Fei would also be able to become an NBA head coach.

What Zhuang Fei thought in his heart and Jordan guessed is indeed not far from ten, he does intend to use this game to press the Trail Blazers, and he also has enough hole cards in his hand, the strength of the Trail Blazers is very strong, there is no doubt about it, whether it is five of them or Schramf and Brian Grant on the bench, these people can ensure that the Trail Blazers will never be suppressed by any team, which is also why they were able to make the score 3-3 after falling behind the Lakers 1-3 in Zhuang Fei's previous life, In the end, they can still lead by 15 points in the fourth quarter when they tie seven, if it weren't for the referees, they would be the champions, in a sense, this Trail Blazers, which is composed of all All-Star players, is the strongest team in the NBA, of course, the Timberwolves are not worse than them in terms of squad depth, which is also Zhuang Fei's confidence to dare to gamble with them.

"Garnett and Rashid Wallace are very difficult to see such a flesh-and-meat collision, usually Garnett is mostly shallow, rarely in the low post and the opponent fight, in the Timberwolves' tactical system can be solved outside the three-point line is solved outside the three-point line, if it can't be solved, it will be solved in the high position, and they will go to the low post if they can't solve it, this is not a conventional weapon belonging to the Timberwolves, it seems from this game that the Timberwolves are very skilled in this unconventional weapon" Michaels looked at the Timberwolves players in surprise and said that now the Timberwolves players seem to have begun to get better.

"Well, Garnett's hand in this game is very good, Rasheed Wallace's defense is already very good, Garnett has hit a lot of difficult goals, but many people say that the biggest gap between Garnett and Duncan is the low-post offense, and now it seems that the gap between him and Duncan is not big, Garnett's status offense is much better than Rodman's guy" Jordan said that he originally wanted to show off his humor, and Michaels next to him coughed dryly twice, Rodman and Garnett attacked in the low post? It's a bit cold, but he does support Jordan's argument, Garnett is really good in the low post, and the Timberwolves are hiding deeply. Now in the NBA, many experts always say that Garnett's face-frame offense is very strong, but the face-frame offense has never been a way to show his dominance on the inside, so now many people say that Garnett is strong, but there is no dominance, a dominant interior line must also make achievements in the low post, and there will definitely be many experts who will be slapped in the face after this game. The current Garnett is no longer the same Garnett who was forced by Duncan and Admiral to shoot three-pointers a year ago. Or that this timberwolf is growing at a visible speed, and Michaels is the person who can best witness their growth, and he has been accompanying this timberwolf to grow up.

When this game continues to advance over time, the head coach of the Trail Blazers, Dunleavy, is becoming more and more frightened, the Timberwolves can be evenly matched with the Trail Blazers in such a non-mainstream style of play, no, it should be said that the Trail Blazers are slightly suppressed by the advantage of the home court, he has thought that the Timberwolves will insist on playing for a while, but in the end it will change, but now it seems that the Timberwolves have no need to change at all, and they are completely able to fight with the Trail Blazers all the time.

"The strength of this Timberwolves is too unfathomable" Thinking of this Dunleavy hands couldn't help but tremble, what kind of coach would make such a team. …,

"Now that the rumored positional offense is no longer their weakness, is the Timberwolves' last weakness left defense?" Thinking of this, Dunleavy shook his head, he was convinced that the Trail Blazers were very strong, but their offensive ability was average, how could the Trail Blazers test the Timberwolves' defense? Is it to beat Nash to death? Looking at the Timberwolves' two interior lines, he shook his head again, even if he could easily break through Nash to the basket, Stoudemire would definitely be stunned by Garnett and O'Neal Jr., Stoudemire is not Payton or Iverson. Dunleavy suddenly found himself feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

The Timberwolves and the Trail Blazers played very close in this game, and even the Timberwolves fans on the scene were shocked when they watched this game, the Timberwolves in the first quarter of this game were demoralized with Pierce's strong performance at the beginning and then led the Trail Blazers 26-22, and the Trail Blazers kept biting the score, Pippen's performance this season is indeed better than last season's Rockets, although the data is not as good as last season, but the actual performance is much better, The combination of his and Stoudemire's organization has always been able to make the Trail Blazers run smoothly, which is why the Trail Blazers have not been able to break down, the two sides have played very evenly, and in the bench competition, the Trail Blazers, who have always been proud of the depth of the bench, have not taken advantage, and it can be said that the Timberwolves have a slight advantage. This makes the Timberwolves have always taken the initiative in this game, and of course, the Timberwolves' feel in this game is really good.

So when the Timberwolves defeated the Trail Blazers 101-96 at home in this game, the Timberwolves fans on the scene also gasped, such non-mainstream Timberwolves are quite rare, and the Timberwolves won even if they were non-mainstream. This is also a very surprising thing.

But for the rest of the NBA, they'll need to think again. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
