Chapter 42: Performance

The party hosted by Jaric did not affect the feel of the Golden State Warriors, but the whole Timberwolves seemed to be immersed in Jarich's party.

98 to 111

The Timberwolves lost by a full 13 points!

Whitman sent a thunderbolt in the locker room after the game, and he harshly criticized the poor performance of Jefferson, McCantz and others, and of course, Zheng Ke.

In this game, three of the Warriors scored 20 points, namely Al Harrington 25, Monta Ellis 24 and Stephen Jackson 20 points, in addition, the Warriors' team engine Baron Davis chipped in 18 points and 10 assists, and the skinny Bedlins scored 15 rebounds.

And the highest score on the Timberwolves' side was actually Brewer, who came off the bench, Brewer scored 26 points on 10-of-13 shooting, justifying his No. 7 pick. As for the performance of the others, they were all poor, as if they had known each other the night before, and the Timberwolves were ruthless to defend, and were played by the Warriors with various offenses, and at the beginning of the second half, McCantz sprained his knee on a breakaway, causing him to leave the court directly for treatment, and the doctor said that he had to rest for two weeks, which made Whitman even more angry

Whitman announced that the team will head straight to Indiana tomorrow to get used to the climate there and better face the game against the Pacers the day after tomorrow

This made Zheng Ke angry, and Zheng Ke promised Zeng Xiaojun to attend the "Taste of China" dinner he held tomorrow night! In desperation, Zheng Ke had no choice but to call Zeng Xiaojun, the owner of the Chinese restaurant, to explain the situation, fortunately, Zeng Xiaojun was also a reasonable person, and did not blame Zheng Ke, but only expressed regret

Zheng Ke is also very helpless! How he wanted to eat another delicious Chinese meal!

However, being in the NBA is like this, many things that can't be done can be done after not entering this major league, and many things that can be easily done can't be done after entering this major league

The Pacers collapsed after the Auburn Hills palace incident, the team's soul Reggie Miller chose to retire after the end of the 05 season, and the team sent away the "beast" Artest, and now the Pacers are only 24-year-old scoring small forward Danny Granger as the core, although there are still a group of quality players, but there is no hope of winning the championship

Zheng Ke did not perform well in the last game against the Warriors, playing 24 minutes, only 3 points and 3 boards on 1-of-4 shooting, and he failed to strangle Captain Jack on defense, and he was pressed on the bench in this game, and it was not Gomez who played in his place, but Anthony Walker, who just returned from injury yesterday!

There is no way to do this, Walker's scoring ability is stronger than Zheng Ke, and the team lacks the most stable three-point McCantz, so Walker starts instead of Zheng Ke, and Gomez starts instead of McCantz, hoping that this change of formation can have a certain effect.

But the truth was far from Whitman's idea, and the main team was completely shot by the Pacers in the first quarter, and the Pacers led the Timberwolves by a huge 40-20 point margin.

This time Zheng Ke played the role of savior, after coming off the bench in the second quarter, he made contributions on the defensive end, not only chased the cap off Karim Rush's left-handed layup, but also cut off O'Neal Jr.'s singles ball under the basket Zheng Ke led a group of bench bandits to blow up the Pacers' bench, and the Pacers who hit the Pacers with an 11-0 small climax directly called a timeout, Marquis Daniels wanted to cry, don't play like this, why is the bench so desperate?

Maybe it was Zheng Ke's performance that stimulated the Timberwolves, and after the second quarter, the Timberwolves began to chase points again and again, and Anthony Walker fired again and again! In the second half of the second quarter, he threw 3 points in a row, and seemed to have found the demeanor of the teenager back then! The Timberwolves played a 40-15 in the second quarter and actually led 60-55 at halftime!

After the start of the second half, Walker's performance was still eye-catching, Jefferson, Telfair, and Gomez also began to go crazy, so Zheng Ke, who led the counterattack frenzy in the first half of the second quarter, had no playing time, and he was pressed to the bench!

Telfair seems to be paying homage to his old-timer Jamal Tinsley, the Pacers' primary point guard, and the two have been back and forth to show the skills they learned in the NBA. Both of these are born in street ball, both have excellent ball control, compared to Tinsley, who is good at being played, Telfair is better at relying on his agility and speed to break through, and the slightly bloated Tinsley obviously can't guard against a small defender like Telfair

The Timberwolves won the game 131-118!

Jefferson, the star of the Timberwolves, looked quiet, but he got 29 points and 13 rebounds, Telfair exploded 11 of 18, 5 of 5 free throws and scored 27 points, Walker threw in 6 three-pointers and scored 23 points, Gomez scored 16 points, Smith 12 points, Brewer 12 points, Zheng Ke 10 points, Jaric 2 points, and seven people on the team scored double-doubles!

On the Pacers' side, Granger had a poor performance with only 14 points, and the most prominent performance was Mike Dunleavy, who played 38 minutes and scored 30 points, which was also the highest score of the game.

After this game, the Timberwolves' record surpassed the Los Angeles Clippers and reached the twelfth in the West, which is exciting news, and the twelfth to eighth only needs to exceed four opponents, and the whole Timberwolves team can't help but celebrate!

But the good times didn't last long, and the next day the team challenged the New Orleans Hornets, who were temporarily in first place in the West, and met the queen bee Paul, Telfair's just felt satisfied with the Pacers was suddenly beaten to pieces, and the Timberwolves fell behind from the start until Zuihou of the game, and didn't even bring a decent counterattack to the Hornets

Jefferson was lost in the defense of West and Chandler, unable to extricate himself, unable to save himself, and Walker did not have yesterday's magic, the three-point shot was actually 1 of 7, and Zheng Ke, the only normal point, did not have enough offensive ability

In the second half, Whitman changed the formation, Zheng Ke defended Paul, Paul deserved to be one of the players with the highest ball quotient in the NBA, he found that the Timberwolves changed their defense and immediately made a target, and he didn't even need the arrangement of the Hornets head coach to find the weakest point of the Timberwolves, forward defense! After Peja Skotovic threw back-to-back three-pointers, Whitman was completely out of options

In the end, the Timberwolves lost New Orleans by a huge 76-110 point difference

Zheng Ke lost the match, but the Chinese media were crazy, they had happy smiles on their faces, and Zheng Ke found a reporter he knew more well after the match, asked why, and then got it.

Over there, the Milwaukee Bucks defeated Charlotte Bobcats 103-99 at home, Yi Jianlian played 42 minutes and 33 seconds, and was in good shape with 14 of 17 shots (12 of the first 12 shots), 1 of 1 free throws, a career-high 29 points and 10 rebounds, in addition to 3 assists, 2 turnovers, 3 steals, 1 block and 3 fouls.

This made Zheng Ke happy for Yi Jianlian from the bottom of his heart, the reporter is also a witty person, and after thinking about it, he asked Zheng Ke what he thought about Yi Jianlian's career high, Zheng Ke of course picked up haode and said, so he expressed his praise for Yi Jianlian and wished him better and better.

But in fact, although Zheng Ke said so, he still hopes that his performance can attract the attention of others, and he hopes that his performance can attract the attention of the Chinese people, and now Yi Jianlian's performance is getting better and better compared with the beginning of the season, but his own performance has been poor recently, and he can only contribute 6.5 points and 1.7 rebounds in the last 4 games, and even the ranking of the rookie list has been reduced to tenth

Zheng Ke looked up to the sky and sighed: Hey~~ How is this good
