THE "WE-WANT-WOOD" IN THE TARGET CENTER FILLED EVERY CORNER OF THE FIELD, AND THE CORNERS OF DEVIN CASEY'S MOUTH COULDN'T HELP BUT TWITCH, AND HE GLANCED AT LIN SEN SITTING ON THE BENCH BEHIND HIM.
At this moment, Lin Sen was still sitting quietly on the bench, without any expression.
Joe Johnson, who stood at the free throw line, was also surprised by the importance that Timberwolves fans attached to Linson, adjusted his breath and watched Joe Johnson shoot the ball to the basket.
The ball went neatly into the basket and Joe Johnson scored four points.
"I really don't know what Coach Devin thinks, when is he going to put Wood on the bench? Since he said before the game that Wood had recovered from his injury, Weishenme has not let Wood play until now? The on-site commentator looked at Devin Casey standing on the sidelines and was puzzled.
Being beaten by Joe Johnson to four points embarrassed Ricky Davis, who was desperate to save face, saw Mike James dribbling the ball past half court and immediately reached for the ball.
Mike James immediately passed the ball over, but Ricky Davis, desperate to save face, found Josh Smith on top of his offensive line as soon as he shook off Joe Johnson's defence.
Caught off guard, Ricky Davis didn't have time to get out of the way.
As soon as the two made contact, Josh Smith fell straight backwards, and the referee's whistle blew immediately.
"That guy sucks, we need Wood!"
"Yes, we need Wood!"
Such conversations took place throughout the auditorium at the Target Center, and soon we-want-wood, which had just dissipated, swept the audience again.
Hitting Devin Casey's eardrums again and again, Kevin McHale was extremely ugly in a box in the target center arena at this moment, and sitting opposite McHale was Linson's agent David Falck.
"Kevin, today is really unbelievable, I didn't ask for a lot of things, and I remember what I said when I signed Wood, to provide him with a coach who could fully support him, a veteran player who could help him, and a uniform team with ideas."
McHale watched everything that was happening on the pitch and listened quietly to Falck's words.
"I always thought Wood could get himself off to a good start in Minnesota, and he did, but no one expected the honeymoon period to be so short."
"Devon is not very good at communicating......"
McHale was interrupted by Falk before he could finish his sentence: "Kevin, that's not a reason why Wood can't play here, is it?" Wood told me he wanted to stay here, but from my personal point of view, Minnesota is not the best choice these days, and Wood is far more mature than I thought, and there is no veteran to lead him to take on a team workout directly. ”
Listening to David Falck's words, McHale suddenly laughed: "Wood is on!" ”
As soon as Linson got up from the bench, the whole target center went into a frenzy, a scene that really shocked Ron Pettit, who was the live announcer on Minnesota Radio.
"It's hard to believe the fans' desire for Wood, we're still seven points behind, but I'm sure countless people have the same confidence in Wood as I do, that he's going to lead us to a comeback, that he's going to lead us to defend our home stadium because we're the wolves of Minnesota!"
Devin Casey listened to the cheers of the audience, and felt a sense of relief in his heart, and all he had to explain to Lin Sen just now was "You decide for yourself." ”
Call!
Lin Sen let out a sigh of relief, leaving the court for just one game made him feel like he had been away from the court for a long, long time.
After straightening the arm guard on his left arm, Lin Sen clenched his left hand into a fist and raised it.
The teammates on the field immediately understood what Lin Sen meant, and the fans on the scene responded to Lin Sen with ultra-high decibel cheers.
Hawks head coach Mike Woodson on the sidelines looked at Linson and smiled helplessly, only playing a quarter of the new season The entire Hawks uniform team regretted their original choice, but in the face of the media, they could only bite the bullet and say that they never regretted their choice in the draft.
Not only that, but he also smiled and said that he believed that Sheldon Williams' future would be bright, and Woodson glanced at Sheldon Williams on the bench and really wanted to scold: "Go to the light of NMD." ”
Eddie Griffin fed the ball to Linson, who slapped the ball twice, feeling the sensation of the ball in his hands.
"He's still very popular."
David Falck listened to McHale's unexplained words: "But this is only the place that I once thought was the best fit for him, and his growth was beyond everyone's expectations, even if he didn't leave now for three years?" Give him a contract of 10 million and still be below KG? ”
McHale didn't say anything more, but looked at the court, he had never regretted handing over the whip instead of taking charge himself.
Linson had just dribbled past halftime when Joe Johnson stood in front of Linson.
Joe Johnson is undeniably offensive and can defend from a No. 1 to a No. 4, but his lack of pace is his biggest fatal injury.
Although his height of nearly 6-foot-8 and accurate judgment can greatly compensate for his slow footwork, so as to achieve a breakthrough route that locks the opponent and can also bring shock to the opponent's outside shooting, but in the end it is only to make up for it.
However, the presence of Josh Smith, a super-spring man, has upgraded Joe Johnson's power on the defensive end.
This isn't the first time Linson has faced Joe Johnson defensively, but he did face more of Taruru Lue and Claxton in his match 20 days ago.
Lin Sen faced Joe Johnson's defense, which was looking at Joe Johnson under the shadow of Joe Johnson, and his eyes suddenly looked to Joe Johnson's right side, while his right shoulder was lifted and his right foot was raised.
Madsen on the inside suddenly ran from the left side of the basket to the right, and Hassel, who was one step inside the left three-point line, ran to the same moment as Madsen was running.
Joe Johnson immediately took a small step from the side, and at that moment the ball came to Linsen's left hand, and Joe Johnson subconsciously thought that Linsen wanted to break through from his right side.
At the same time, Eddie Griffin, who was on the right side of the basket, went directly from the baseline to the left side of the basket with the help of Madsen's cover.
And Lin Sen slapped his left hand violently, and the ball passed between the two like the wind.
When people reacted, the ball hit the free throw line and bounced straight to the left side of the basket.
Almost at the same time as Eddie Griffin's footsteps, the ball came right in front of Eddie Griffin's hands.
Without a hint of hesitation, Eddie Griffin took the ball with both hands and took a step directly to slam the ball into the basket.
Syllable!
The basket shook violently as Eddie Griffin pulled it.

[PS: It is said that Wood is a Ross-type point guard, but Xiao Ai needs to explain here, in fact, this problem should have been mentioned in the article before, and Wood has to do it now.
Even with Garnett, the overall strength of the Timberwolves is terrible, so it is simply impossible for Wood not to step up and score.
Others score poorly on their own, so at the moment blocking and breaking through the ball is the tactic that the rest of the Timberwolves have the best offensive opportunities, which is what the team needs and not Linson will only be a pseudo-point guard. 】
