Going back to San Antonio to play again, this is a result that the Timberwolves don't want from top to bottom, which makes the whole Timberwolves feel very dignified, and the Spurs still have the home court advantage at the critical moment. Whether Zhuang Fei wants it or not, he must accept this reality.

The Timberwolves are still in a very good state now, everyone has let go at this stage of the game, and they have nothing to lose, and now what they can do is still fight hard, strive to beat the Spurs, and then reach the Finals.

"Steve has been a little tired lately," D'Antoni said to Zhuang Fei with a solemn face in the hotel where the San Antonio Timberwolves were staying. Several Timberwolves players have had a fitness crisis recently. Among them, Nash is particularly serious.

"Is it" Zhuang Fei also sighed, since entering the Western Conference Finals, Zhuang Fei rarely rotates other players, Nash basically has to play more than 42 minutes per game, except for the third game Pierce and Garnett, you must know that Nash is just a player who has just started this season, in a sense he is also a rookie player, in the regular season Zhuang Fei can let him rest fully, but when it comes to the Western Conference Finals Zhuang Fei has no such plan, Nash can be said to be the most stable player for the Timberwolves to shoot at critical moments now, and the fourth game for the Timberwolves can win because of Nash's key xìng's mid-range shot, in addition to Nash, Garnett plays almost the whole game in every game, and is fighting with the Spurs inside the whole game, this consumption is much greater than Nash, but Garnett's physical fitness is much better. So it's not as serious as Nash right now. But I'm also a little tired. These two people are Zhuang Fei who wants to rotate but there is no one to replace, and now the Timberwolves have no one to temporarily replace him.

"Let's hold on for a while, this is the last game, as long as we beat the Spurs," Zhuang Fei finally smiled helplessly and said, yes, this is the last game with the Spurs, after beating the Spurs at home on June 4, the Timberwolves suffered another defeat in San Antonio on June 6. And it was a big defeat, with the Timberwolves losing the same kind of luck they had in Game 5 to the Spurs 85-95 on the road. The Timberwolves' own offense played poorly in that game, shooting less than 35% from the field, although the Timberwolves basically didn't shoot more than 40% in this series. And on June 8 the sixth race was held at the Target Center. When Vicky was ready to completely defeat the Timberwolves to win this series, he was hit again, and the Timberwolves, who had a very low shooting percentage in the previous game, regained their touch again, and also completed the shooting rate of more than 45% for the first time in this round of the series, and finally the Timberwolves also defeated the confident Spurs 100-92, so the final score became 3-3 that both teams were unwilling to accept.

"It can only be like this" D'Antoni also shook his head, there is nothing to keep now, now the game is going on to this physical quality is no longer important, the most important thing is that it has become a test of will.

On June 10th, Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals of the NBA playoffs. San Antonio Alamo Arena. The final game of the season is about to take place here.

This is the most critical game for the Spurs and Timberwolves to hit the Finals for the first time in history, although the Spurs' home attendance is not bad, but because of the style of play, there are few times when the Alamo is full, but in today's game, the Alamo Arena was full. There are even quite a few Timberwolves fans who have come all the way across the continental United States to San Antonio. This also makes the Alamo Arena the first time this season that scalpers have appeared outside the arena.

Vicky doesn't dare to underestimate the Timberwolves now, it is true that he used to have the idea of playing the Timberwolves like playing with the Trail Blazers, and he did this in the first two games of this series, the Spurs only needed to beat the Timberwolves at that time in the fourth quarter, but now it is different, let alone the Spurs in the fourth quarter. Even if the whole game is 48 minutes, it may not be able to get the good result he wants, this season the Spurs are unbeatable in the regular season, but when they enter the playoffs and meet Carter and Zhuang Fei, he has encountered a huge challenge, the current Spurs are the strongest time in the history of the Spurs, Duncan came to the peak, Robinson still has residual warmth, looking at the young lineup of the Timberwolves, Vicky understands very well that if he can't win the championship now with a strength higher than the Timberwolves, In the future, it is basically impossible for the Timberwolves to defeat the Timberwolves when they grow up and have equal strength, and maybe then they will really enter the so-called "Wake Forest" era that those experts say.

"Zhuang, I really didn't expect that we would fight this one," Vicky said with emotion as he held Zhuang Fei's hand.

"I know, at the beginning of this round of the series, you were prepared to be swept by us in four games" Zhuang Fei was stunned after speaking, and then Zhuang Fei continued: "Mr. Greg, I have to admit that you did a great job, you successfully dragged the game into the seventh game" Zhuang Fei's tone was extremely serious, but Vicky's face was extremely ugly, of course he heard that Zhuang Fei was sarcastically mocking him.

"Hmph, you don't really think you can beat us, it's good to be able to fight until now with your little strength" Vicky is not a good stubble, if the previous weakness was more about sitting and watching the calmness and self-confidence of luck, the current Vicky is not as calm as before, and now he is ready to share a victory with Zhuang Fei no matter what the occasion.

"Our strength is really unimpressive, but it's enough to beat you," Zhuang Fei said with a smile, no matter what the outcome of this match can make Vicky deflated, he will be happy, because his Jabalka can't use the resentment that makes him hold his stomach.

The sparks created by the two before the game once again made this game extremely exciting.

"Now is the so-called moment of life and death," Zhuang Fei returned to his bench and looked at the Timberwolves players who were still warming up on the court, and sighed, this is the first time in his life that he has suffered a tie-break, and he had no chance in college before. This feeling made Zhuang Fei nervous and exciting at the same time

"Kevin, are you nervous" Paul Pierce threw the ball in his hand to the basket, his hand was actually shaking all the time, he was very excited now, a kind of incomparable excitement, I don't know why, he felt that he was very suitable for such a scene, he felt that such a desperate situation or adversity could make him play better.

"Nervous?" Garnett stopped what he was doing and thought about it and said seriously: "Not at all, I lost in the first round of tie-break last year, and I don't want to lose the second time now, so I won't be nervous, I'm just more focused than ever before" Last year was a turning point in his life, when he was confused, and now he already knows what his goal is and what he wants.

"Steve, what about you?" Pierce looked at Garnett, who looked serious, nodded, and then asked Nash next to him.

"Me neither, when I was on the bench with the Suns, I fantasized all day long, fantasizing that I could one day replace Kidd as a starter, fantasizing about one day leading the Suns to the playoffs on my own, and then fantasizing about winning the MVP and winning the championship like Jordan, this kind of scene has appeared in my mind many times, when I first entered the league, I fantasized about tying seven in the Western Conference Finals with the Rockets, and then I fantasized about stealing seven in the Finals with the Bulls, so now I'm not nervous. On the contrary, I am very excited, although the real opponent now is not the rocket in my dream, but it doesn't matter, I now feel that I have inexhaustible strength" Nash said excitedly and surprised Pierce and Garnett next to him, usually Nash is still a person who likes to dream, but if Zhuang Fei and D'Antoni hear Nash now say that he has inexhaustible strength, he will probably be surprised, because the team doctor has obviously said that Nash's physical fitness has reached the limit.

"We're going to win, definitely" Pierce picked up Nash and Garnett's hands and put them together, Pierce and Garnett and Nash's faces were full of fighting spirit, and Zhuang Fei, who had been observing the players on the court on the side, was also very surprised to see this scene, because the momentum of these three people was obviously different from before

Michaels, the on-site commentator of this game ABC, has come to the scene early, this round of the series is the most jīng color series of his live broadcast career, all kinds of historical moments on both sides are endless, basically every game can find historical moments that have not appeared in previous games, and now the game is at this time for him The season is perfect and over, he doesn't just care about the Timberwolves and the Spurs, as a professional commentator, he also pays attention to another division final, However, neither the Knicks nor the Pacers are the opponents of the current Spurs and the Timberwolves, which can be said to be a certain thing, so now the Timberwolves and Spurs are competing not for a Finals ticket but for a championship ticket, so this is a Finals tie-break staged in advance.

As someone who has been witnessing the performance of both teams in this round, he sincerely hopes that there will be no losers in this round, because both teams are great enough, although he knows that this is impossible, but his heart is still full of melancholy. Looking at the gestures from the director of the scene, Michaels knew that the live broadcast had officially begun, and he also threw the melancholy in his heart out of his head, and his voice became full again.

"Good evening everyone, ABC viewers, Game 7 of the 1999 NBA Playoffs Western Conference Finals starts now, and I'm Michaels, the live commentator today."

As soon as Michaels' words fell, the referee threw the ball into the sky, and the final Western Conference Finals officially began.
