The All-Star Game in '09 came to an end in this storm, and Zheng Ke's self-throwing crotch hand-changing dunk left a deep impression; The OK group zuihou won the MVP with a smile and a grudge has also become a legend, maybe a few years later, looking back on the past, people will still talk about this year's All-Stars, and the memory may come back to the back of the 17th that shocked Shijie.

Although the Timberwolves are a small ball city, the Timberwolves have the potential to become a top team, just like the Thunder in later generations.

After the All-Star break, the league entered a period of frequent trades, with strong teams using this time to fill out their rosters and weak teams using this time to empty their salary space. The league began to enter a turbulent period, during which there were transactions almost every moment during the three or four days, but from this year's point of view, they were all small transactions, and the only possible big transactions for the Thunder and Hornets were also "returned" because Chandler failed the physical examination, and the two sides of the deal collapsed.

The Timberwolves have made no moves, and McHale is happy with the team's current roster and believes that there is no need for major repairs, and the priority now should be to focus on the game.

On February 18, the first game after the All-Star break, the Timberwolves challenged the Wizards away.

The Wizards are no longer the Eastern powerhouse they used to be, and the generals have been plagued by injuries in the past two seasons, and they have played a total of 13 games in the two seasons, and the Wizards have also fallen into a slump. The Knicks, who have the lowest record in the league, are the second-to-last Knicks in the East, and they have nearly ten more wins than the Wizards.

When Zheng Ke came to play in this MIC center arena. Stunned by the less than 20% attendance at the scene, he had thought that only the palace in Auburn Hills would be sparsely populated to this extent.

When the game is played, the cheers of the fans are weak, even as the visiting team, the Timberwolves still feel that the arena is too deserted, which is really not interesting.

The result of the game was not expected by 99% of fans, and the Timberwolves beat the Wizards by a large margin. Zheng had 24 points and nine rebounds. Butler, meanwhile, had 17 points against him, but most of the scoring came in garbage time. Or Zheng Ke won it at the end of the break.

The season is coming to an end, and Zheng Ke's call to be named the best defensive player is very high, second only to Howard of the Magic, but some media have raised it. It doesn't matter which of them gets this honor. will set the record for the youngest player to be the best defensive player in the NBA.

Howard's supporters say that this season Howard averaged a career-high 2.9 blocks per game, in addition to 13.8 rebounds and 20.6 points, he turned the Magic into a top-five team in the league in points conceded per game, and his teammates Nelson, Turkoglou and Lewis are not good defensive players, and the Magic can have that. Howard owes a lot of credit.

And those who support Zheng Ke say that Zheng Ke is averaging 23.8 points per game this season. With 8.1 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.3 blocks, all the statistics are very good, especially steals and blocks, Zheng Ke is a rare player who can give away steals without losing position, and he averages only 0.71 per game for opposing players, ranking first in the league. In addition, when Zheng is on the court, the Timberwolves can cause 16.5 percent turnover for other teams, which is equivalent to an average of 16.5 turnovers per 100 possessions, which ranks first in the league, and when he is off the court, this figure drops to 14.3 percent, ranking only 13th in the league.

Either way, this year's Defensive Player of the Year must be one of Zheng Ke and Howard, after all, both of them have played jaw-dropping results according to their records. And one of them is also the strongest contender for the most improved player this year.

After the trade deadline, there were not many games left in February, and it felt like it was about to enter the playoffs, and the pace suddenly picked up a lot.

The Timberwolves have a four-two-two record in the rest of their games in February, and without the momentum of the winning streak, they will always lose one game from time to time, and it is worth mentioning that the Timberwolves have been in danger against potential playoff opponents the Trail Blazers.

It was a game at Portland's Rose Garden.

The initiative at the beginning of the game was in the hands of the Trail Blazers, and Love missed the game due to a thigh muscle strain, so the Timberwolves' interior line was in a hurry from the beginning. Originally, Aldridge was difficult to defend, but now he has replaced the short Greg Smith to defend, and Aldridge played smoothly, scoring 14 points in a single quarter, helping the Trail Blazers lead the Timberwolves by 11 points 33-24.

At the critical moment, the Timberwolves' bench lineup broke out, Foye felt hot, suddenly incarnated as Reggie Miller, threw in a three-pointer, chased the Timberwolves back behind, and at the same time, reversed the Timberwolves' decadent momentum on the field, Whitman hit the iron while it was hot, so that Zheng Ke, who had only rested for two minutes, returned to the court, and the Wolves regained the initiative.

At halftime, the Timberwolves trailed by just one point.

After the second half, the scores of the two teams were anxious, Zheng Ke broke through the inside line in a row, beat Batum out of the court with six fouls, and forced McMillan (the head coach of the Trail Blazers) to replace Gomez, who has gradually lost his luck this season. The two brothers reunited, and couldn't help but sigh, the days of training together in the stadium are still vivid, and now one is a superstar all over the world, and the other can't even keep the starting position.

Gomez played hard, but his muscular body still caused some problems for Zheng.

It wasn't until the junihou moment of the game that the two teams gradually decided to win or lose, and the magical Roy couldn't hit the crucial three-point shot, and the Timberwolves narrowly and narrowly won the victory away from home.

Zheng Ke was named the best player in a single game, he shot 12 of 24, 4 of 9 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, and scored 37 points.

After this game, the Timberwolves are in fourth place in the West with a 39-19 record, two wins ahead of the Trail Blazers, who are fifth in the West.

In February, the best player in the West went to Kobe Bryant and the best player in the East went to James, and the two are now evenly matched in the MVP rankings, and the two teams have similar records, but in comparison, the probability of the legendary godson winning his first regular season MVP this season seems to be higher.

Zheng Ke's entertainment company is completely on the right track, and Taylor's third solo album is about to be released, in addition to her usual country music style, there are also some rock and pop elements added to it, such as the song "Rollinginthedeep", which shocked many fans when the single was released, and rushed to the second place on the Billboard two weeks later, launching a fierce attack on Zheng Ke's top spot.

The outstanding talent of the husband and wife team stunned many characters, compared to Taylor, who has long been known as a talented woman, Zheng Ke, as a basketball player, is even more surprising, even if he writes rock and rap, it is more acceptable than lyrical. If Zheng Ke hadn't opened an entertainment company by himself as the boss, the door of his house would have been trampled by the heads of major entertainment companies now. During this time, Zheng Ke and the others also made the name of Kongcheng Entertainment Company.

Qin Yue took the opportunity to throw an olive branch to some unambitious young singers, and successfully signed some young and potential singers, and the empty city entertainment company gradually began to plump up.

Xiao Zheng Shuang has been more than three months old, and he has basically adapted to the environment, he will be very happy and let out a cheerful laugh when he teases him, and when he sees his mother, he will have a sweet smile on his face, and his mouth will constantly babble and learn to speak, and he will be able to concentrate briefly. He is the baby of Zheng Ke's family, and every day when he returns home, when he sees the sleeping little Zheng Shuang, Zheng Ke will feel that the fatigue on his body is swept away.

In March, the focus of American basketball fans shifted to another event – NCAA March Madness!

The NCAA Championship began in March, with 65 teams participating in the tournament, which is a national event that has been highly anticipated, and even the appeal of the NBA has dropped more than one level in this time.

Without a trade, countless scouts from league teams were sent to the NCAA in order to get first-hand information about these college basketball players in order to get a head start in the June draft.

The Timberwolves are no exception, the team has raised so many scouts, although many of them are part-time, but after all, it is not the one who gets paid, there is no reason to put it at home as a decoration, and it is natural to send it out to collect information. In addition to their two draft picks this year, the Timberwolves also have first-round picks from the 76ers, first-round picks from the Celtics, and first-round picks from the Heat. These were originally used in preparation for the rebuild, but I didn't expect the Timberwolves' rise to be so amazing, McHale has begun to plan how to properly handle these draft picks, and it is certain that they will not all be used to select rookies, because the Timberwolves have no extra opportunities to develop rookies, and no one has the courage to recruit so many rookies at once.

In March, the NBA went into a low profile, and the Timberwolves learned from the Spurs to win steadily. The tacit understanding between Billups, Zheng Ke, Love and others is also getting better and better, and on March 12, the wolves defeated the Los Angeles Lakers. It was the Timberwolves' first win over No. 1 in the West this season, and it caused quite a stir (to be continued......
