"Coach, this game is so bloody"

Stephen Green watched the video of the game on TV in Zhuang Fei's chairman's office, and then said to Zhuang Fei on the side with some trepidation.

In last night, the Vancouver Grizzlies won 98-66 away at the target center to beat the second-ranked Timberwolves in the West by 32 points, which is still the largest point difference lost by this team after Zhuang Fei stayed in Minnesota in 1998, and it is also the biggest point difference of this team in this loss.

What kind of team are the Minnesota Timberwolves?

Although the team is now under the leadership of Van Gundy, it is still the second-ranked super team in the West, and the prestige and strength that this team has cultivated under the leadership of Coach Z in the past three years are still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It's just unbelievable.

It can be said that the loss of this game directly destroyed the so-called 'king's spirit' that Zhuang Fei has built for the Timberwolves in the past three years, and the Minnesota Timberwolves from beginning to end of this game do not look much stronger than the Grizzlies, even the team's boss Garnett does not have such a big advantage in the face of this Grizzlies.

"yes, it's brutal"

At the last moment of this game video, Zhuang Fei can obviously feel that the stands in the target center are half empty, you know, when Zhuang Fei was in the past, no matter what the game, no matter what the game ended up in, the fans in the target center rarely left early, and the Timberwolves fans were actually used to staying in the target center after the game to celebrate the victory with the Timberwolves players, or to taste defeat together. It can be said that the Target Center has been the best stadium for NBA fan culture in recent years, but to Zhuang Fei's surprise, there is such a thing in the Target Center now. In the past, he didn't care much about the Timberwolves' game, after all, the two teams only meet twice a year, separated from the East and West, and the two teams have little competition in the regular season. However, judging from this game, it is estimated that there have been many such early departures in the target center this season.

And what makes Zhuang Fei even more surprised now is that even the remaining Timberwolves fans in the stands did not applaud the Timberwolves players to comfort them, these people were all shouting at the young bald man on the Timberwolves bench to get out of class.

The game came to the second half, when the Timberwolves were already trailing the Grizzlies by 25 points. The fans here have unanimously shouted that Van Gundy is out of class, and Glenn Taylor, the owner of the Timberwolves who has been supervising the game in the stands, also has a black face throughout the game, although the owner did not leave the court early, but the gentleman's muttered 'national scolding' mouth shape several times in this game was caught by the live TV station, and it is obvious that the owner is also very angry now, although he hopes that the team can focus on making money. But he also hopes that the Timberwolves will not be too embarrassed, plus he and the Timberwolves fans are just like Zhuang Fei's performance in the previous years. Where did he receive such an insult in the past year?

"Coach. It seems that Van Gundy's life will not be easy now," and finally Stephen Green looked at the Timberwolves players on the TV screen, and none of the players came down from the court to hug or shake hands with Van Gundy after the game, all of them came down from the court, signaled to the fans who stayed at the scene, and then walked to the locker room passage without looking back. All the players' faces were dark. …,

"Yes, Van Gundy's life will be very difficult" Zhuang Fei finally nodded, now the only achievement of the Timberwolves head coach is to train the Chinese player Wang Zhizhi well, perhaps it is because of this achievement that the Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor can still tolerate him, Wang Zhizhi has been able to contribute an average of 17 points and 8 rebounds per game this season. This center seems to have become a first-class center in the NBA, and it is precisely because of Wang Zhizhi's outstanding performance that Glenn Taylor makes no less money this year than Zhuang Fei last year. Less is definitely less, but it's still within the tolerance of Glenn Taylor.

Although I can still get the support of my boss. If there is such an angry game in the future, it is estimated that he really has no possibility of staying with the Timberwolves. When thinking of this, Zhuang Fei finally sighed, for any coach in the league, it is a great challenge to pick up the stall left by himself.

"I just really didn't expect the Grizzlies to really seem to be back in business, and they're already on a five-game winning streak after beating the Timberwolves in this game, right?" Seeing Zhuang Fei's sigh, Stephen Green also sighed a little, he was not very optimistic about this team before, it can be said that this team is too ' in Green's opinion. It's hard, the player's character is hard, the style of play is also very hard, such a team is easy to break after encountering things, just easy to break, for a basketball coach for such a team is not very like, but with the recent wave of five consecutive wins, this team has slowly caught up, the current Boston Celtics are 31-6, and the current Raptors have become 28-9, has tied with the Heat's record, and is also overtaking the 76ers.

"This is also due to their strength, this is a team that can suffocate the entire league" Zhuang Fei finally shook his head and said, and Green also nodded thoughtfully after hearing Zhuang Fei's words.

"Although the team is still three wins ahead of them now, but according to their current state, this lead is not safe at all" Zhuang Fei finally looked out the window and thought with some caution in his heart, he also felt the threat of his team's first place in the East.

In the last game, the defending champion Timberwolves lost to the Grizzlies by 30 points at home, which also made almost all the mainstream media in the United States sigh for the Timberwolves, and the sensational effect of this game may only be a little less than the Christmas game against Jordan this season, but even this is enough to make people look sideways, and this game is even considered by these people to be the Timberwolves, a team established by Zhuang Fei, is about to collapse before the dynasty is completed. If the Timberwolves' game since the start of this season has lost its former dominance, then this game has lost even the deterrent power of this team.

Of course, the Timberwolves' loss is the Timberwolves' own business, and Zhuang Fei is no longer the coach of the Timberwolves now, but even so, Zhuang Fei was still harassed by those reporters before his home game against the Pistons, in the eyes of these people, Zhuang Fei is the person who has the most say in the performance of the Timberwolves this year. It's just that to the frustration of these people, the Boston head coach didn't respond to any questions about the Timberwolves, even some Timberwolves fans didn't respond to questions about Zhuang Fei's return to Minnesota.

On January 11, 2002, the Boston Celtics hosted the challenge of the Pistons, who are currently 27-11 in the fifth place in the East this season, and this team has been in the top three in the East this season after the largest trade in the history of the league, Stoudemire got the flying squirrel, Stoudemire got All-Star power forward from the Grizzlies, plus Dale Davis, a super defensive interior from the Pacers, and Starkerhouse, the team already has a super scorer, it can be said that this team can now be in the top three in the East on paper. And the performance of this team this season is also a relief for Pistons fans, it is obvious that this team has risen this season after the depression of losing Grant Hill last season, although this team is currently only ranked fifth, but it is not much different from the previous team in terms of results, and it can be said that it is fully capable of going further. …,

And this game against the Boston Celtics is the key for them to go further.

So after the start of this game, Zhuang Fei felt the energy of this ball, which has always been a very powerless game. Although this team has a first-class defender like Little Squirrel, but the style of play of this team is a little speechless to Zhuang Fei, and there is not much cooperation at all, that is, the team's three core players, Little Squirrel, Stackhouse and Rahim, take turns to play singles, Little Squirrel Sudden One, Stark House Throws one, and then Rahim also pulls out the inside line and throws one, this is a complete singles team.

"That's how they got to where they are this this season?" Stephen Green was also speechless to see the performance of the players on both teams on the court, a tactic that was much simpler than the Boston Celtics in the first half of the season.

It's just that even so, the Celtics, who were better than the Pistons in tactics and coordination in this game, still lost, and the flying squirrel Stoudemire played this game with the performance of playing Jordan in the Raptors, James Posey's defense of such a speedy No. 1 position was once again a problem, and Jackson was also a little embarrassed by the nerve knife of Starkerhouse. In this game, the Boston Celtics completely hit the Pistons' three-board axe.

And after this game, what surprised Zhuang Fei even more was that the Grizzlies returned to the home court to bloodied the 76ers after the Timberwolves scored 30 points in the last game.

Now Zhuang Fei had to face the strongest storm from the rear. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
