The Timberwolves against Larry Bird had the worst-case scenario, and although the outside world's disregard for the Pacers made the legendary small forward angry, it also gave the Pacers an opportunity to give the Timberwolves a fatal blow from a very low profile.

But judging from the course of this game, the Timberwolves did not put themselves in a higher position than the Pacers at all, and even their posture was even lower.

"Beautiful, Nash's flying to grab the ball is very beautiful, although it didn't succeed in the end but won the chance to scramble, Nash and Smiters fought for the ball" Michaels said with a smile in the commentary box, Nash didn't control the ball too much in this game, and he also dominated the off-ball cutting and running in the offense, but he was extremely active on the defensive end, this time Mark Jackson and Smitters' blocking Nash actually blocked it directly with anger, and finally actually tripped Smiters really up, and got a chance to scrum the ball, of courseThe final scramble made Michaels a little funny.

"This is the biggest height difference in the history of the Finals, and the difference between the two is a full 30 centimeters," Michaels then laughed, while Magic Johnson looked at his old rival Larry Bird with a worried face.

"This Timberwolves are not ordinary, this is a very pragmatic team" Magic Johnson sighed in his heart, which suddenly reminded him of the Lakers' Shaq O'Neal, if O'Neal can be as pragmatic and low-profile as Nash on the defensive end, can he not be swept so humiliatingly this season? The magician doesn't know. It's all hypothetical, but the Timberwolves were able to do almost everything they could in this game, which was terrifying, and when every player was scrambling to make a floor flow, they could make opponents helpless even if they didn't really have any defensive system.

Zhuang Fei looked at Nash who was jumping with Smiters from the sidelines and nodded. He never had any excessive demands on Nash's defense, but this Canadian kid is leading by example, Zhuang Fei has always treated him very favorably, but he did not 'accept' Zhuang Fei's preferential treatment, the result of this scrum is naturally no suspense, Smiters quickly dialed the ball to Reggie Miller. But when Reggie Miller was about to catch the ball, he suddenly found a figure in front of him again, this figure was Stephen Jackson's, this time the excellent defender also flew to pass the ball to Reggie Miller when it first arrived in Reggie Miller's hand, and the ball that was picked up by Jackson flew directly to the right sideline, which was where Pierce and Jalen Rose were. The two players rushed towards the ball almost at the same time.

"Oops, slow" Jalen Rose squatted down and found that Pierce had stolen the ball earlier, and at this time the Pacers did not have a single defender in the backcourt, and Pierce picked up the ball without any stops, which is the job he is most familiar with. Solo under the fast attack. This kind of scene has been seen too many times in previous Timberwolves games, and as all Timberwolves fans expected, Pierce jumped straight up from the free throw line and hung to the basket with a beautiful one-arm split.

"Beautiful, this was the first fast-break score the Timberwolves made in this game, and it came from a steal from Pierce. It's Pierce's dragon down."

Michaels on the commentary bench shouted that the game was played too well on both sides. The flashpoint is insufficient, and it can be said that Pierce's slam dunk is one of the most exciting clips of the game.

Pierce was excited today. When he got off the basket, he didn't forget to roar, he liked this kind of big scene, whenever this time he could always feel his blood boiling, the rhythm of this game made him like it very much, he didn't like Nash like fast-paced games, it didn't matter to him fast or slow, as long as he could play this kind of enthusiasm, when he heard more than 20,000 Timberwolves fans chanting his name in unison, Pierce felt that his whole body was steaming. …,

"Zhuang, if I'm not mistaken, this is Paul's 15th point of the game, right?" D'Antoni was a little stunned and said, this is only the second half of the second quarter, the second half has not started yet, and now the Timberwolves score only 40 points, Pierce almost occupies half of it alone, and the Timberwolves team only Pierce scored double-doubles, and the state of this small forward is quite good today.

"This is as it should be, Jermay because he pinned down Davis Davis, and Kevin also took Smy Tesla to the basket, Nash's empty cut took away Mark Jackson at the top of the arc, which makes Paul have too many one-on-one opportunities, and his state today is really good, although Jaylen Rose rarely loses his position in defense, he still has a great weakness compared to Paul, especially in one-on-one" Zhuang Fei smiled and said.

"But this kid is really not scared at all in the big scene, this is an excellent Mr. Big Heart" Zhuang Fei added with a smile, and D'Antoni nodded, although the Timberwolves performed very well in this game, but both of them saw that the Timberwolves currently have a little shortcoming, that is, there is no explosive performance, although the Pacers have been suppressed, but they are only entangled with the Pacers, the players are not too open, and some shrink their hands, which is also inevitable, not to mention the Timberwolves players, Even the Pacers players are a little out of their hands. After all, this is the first Finals game for both sides, and the players need to have a process of adaptation.

This also makes Pierce's explosive performance not in the same rhythm as the other nine players on the court, and Pierce looks more energetic, more conspicuous and more radiant.

"Although this game seems to be slow-paced, both sides actually scored more than 45 points after halftime, and the Timberwolves scored 50 points, which is too high," Michaels looked at the scoreboard on the side of the court and sighed, in fact, in his opinion, both sides of the game were too reasonable. There are no holes on both sides in the offense or defense, and in this case, the shooting percentage on both sides is surprisingly high, with the Timberwolves reaching 55% and the Pacers also having 52%, which can be said to be not much different, and this kind of game is difficult to see.

"The two teams combined for only 3 turnovers in the first half, 1 for the Timberwolves and 2 for the Pacers, and the scores on both sides of each other's mistakes added up to only 2 points, which is the dunk after the steal that Pierce just had, in a sense this can be called a perfect game, at least in the history of the NBA, there are no two teams that can perform like these two teams today" Magic Johnson recalled the games he had experienced before, although there were some classics among them, But none of the games came close to this one.

"Perfect game?" Michaels was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought, the so-called perfect game is a game with 0 errors, which is easy to understand, whether it is football or basketball, it is universal, however, it is basically impossible to have a game with 0 errors on the basketball court, and the first half of this game seems to be really close to this definition.

"It shows that both sides are very focused and cautious, and this is also connected to the general trend of this game, didn't you just say that this game is a bit dull? It's like that when everyone on both sides is careful and well-behaved," Magic Johnson said with a smile.

"This is indeed a special game" Magic Johnson said when he watched Zhuang Fei and Larry Bird disappear into the passage to the locker room, Zhuang Fei didn't have much other arrangement at halftime, just let the Timberwolves players talk about how they felt in the first half, this chat-style tactical arrangement is indeed very novel, and the Timberwolves players obviously enjoy this topic, everyone seems to be much more open than just now, of course, Zhuang Fei is also very happy, he has been depressurizing the Timberwolves players, Thinking about making these players more relaxed and indifferent all the time. …,

When the game restarted, Zhuang Fei could obviously feel that the Pacers increased the pressure of the game, each player's movements were bigger, and the concentration of the Pacers players also increased, these Pacers veteran players were able to adjust their state according to the situation on the court as needed, and now the Pacers are 6 points behind the Timberwolves at halftime, and if they continue to play so dullly, the Pacers will definitely lose in the end, so Larry Bird is strengthening the team's rhythm, just like they did against the 76ers and the Heat in the first two roundsThese two teams quickly collapsed under the pressure of the Pacers, and it was naturally impossible for this aging team to maintain this absolute concentration and high-intensity confrontation throughout the game, which is also their hard fight for this game.

"The Pacers are ready to fight hard, the third quarter is the showdown, and if the Timberwolves can hold on to this score at the end of the third quarter, then the game is basically won," Magic Johnson said with a smile as he watched the sudden change in the court. It makes sense for him, and the Pacers are bound to launch a big comeback at some stage, but Larry Bird's comeback looks a little early.

When the third quarter ended, the Timberwolves led the Pacers 78-70 when the Magic knew that the Timberwolves basically won the game, the Pacers did their best in the third quarter, and still lost by 2 points in the end, in fact, as the Magic expected, the final score of the game was 101-92, and the Timberwolves defeated the Pacers at home and won the first Finals victory in the history of the Timberwolves.
