。 On January 17, 2000, the Minnesoti Goal Center, the last of the Timberwolves' last four home games, against the Pacers, who are currently in first place in the East.

And now all the fans in the target center are a little silent because they don't know what to do now, and today's game has taken them by surprise.

Before this game, the battle for the first place in the East and West was almost one-sided public opinion, and no one could believe that the Pacers could take a win away from the Timberwolves' home court, and the process and result of this game left everyone speechless, and the Pacers not only won this game, but also won it by a big margin.

After the game, the scoreboard in the target center showed a score of 109-93, the Timberwolves lost by 16 points, and compared to the result, the process of this game was more disappointing, the Timberwolves did not lead once in the whole game, they were behind the whole game, and the shooting rate was extremely low, it was obvious that the previous game against the Lakers consumed too much of their energy, which caused the Timberwolves' performance in this game to be a little lifeless, and the best performance in this game was not Pacers boss Reggie Miller, It was their point guard Mark Jackson, who had 26 points and 13 assists in this game. It can be said that the point guard of the Timberwolves was completely spent on the offensive end.

Zhuang Fei's face was a little embarrassed after this game, although this loss did not affect the current ranking of the Timberwolves, but he didn't want to lose at home, especially when facing the first in the East, Zhuang Fei has always had a mentality, that is, he would rather lose to a weak team than be defeated by a strong team.

"Originally, I thought I would lose this game, but I didn't expect to win in the end" Pacers coach Larry Bird said to Zhuang Fei with a smile after the game, Bird has always been the idol of Zhuang Fei's coaching career, and he entered the coaching circle because of Zhuang Fei, and he was really excited to beat Zhuang Fei. In the face of Bird's excitement, Zhuang Fei could only smile bitterly after the game.

On January 19, the Timberwolves visited Salt Lake City to face the Jazz, and the Jazz's performance this season is still very stable, if the Timberwolves and Lakers are one and the same, then what surprised many people is that the third place in the West is not the Trail Blazers nor the Spurs, but the Jazz who were considered inactive like the Timberwolves before the start of the season. This season, like the Timberwolves, has embarrassed a lot of expert media.

Before this game, the Timberwolves were newly defeated, and the Jazz had won 3 consecutive victories, which can be said to be in good shape, but the Timberwolves were not affected by the last loss to the Pacers, whether it was inside or outside, the Jazz have been suppressed, the Timberwolves are the second offensive team in the West and the Jazz is the second defensive team in the West, in this style of battle, the Timberwolves played their own characteristics, and the Jazz lost their characteristics, and the final score of this game was 107-96. The Timberwolves won by 11 points on the road, and the best player in this game was Garnett, who is currently the No. 1 in the MVP rankings and scored 22 points and 15 rebounds in this game, which can be said to be one of the few times Garnett did not lose to Malone in terms of statistics or performance. In fact, before Malone, Garnett must have begun to become more and more pure when facing Duncan and O'Neal. Maybe Garnett can't compare with them in terms of ability, but Garnett, who experienced the baptism of the playoffs last season, is now starting to have that kind of strong momentum, which is why he can now rank first in the MVP list, and his presence in the game is getting stronger and stronger.

On January 21, the Timberwolves visited Los Angeles, Zhuang Fei and the Timberwolves players in this game are very different, the Timberwolves and the Clippers do not have any grudges, one is the first in the West and the other is the first in the West, and it is impossible to meet and have a grudge. However, Zhuang Fei and his Timberwolves were booed by the fans here all over the game, if it was just against an ordinary away team, it was obviously impossible for such a situation to occur. However, the Timberwolves did not get lost in this boo in this game, but still easily defeated the Clippers. …,

"Coach, those people who boo you guys are all Lakers fans, and not long ago we were all Lakers fans when we played the Lakers at home. Our Clippers are messing up in Los Angeles right now" James Posey said to Zhuang Fei with a wry smile after the game, where did he have such a thing when he was in Wake Forest, his home court was occupied by fans of other teams, and this impossible thing happened in Los Angeles.

"I can see some of it," Zhuang Fei said with a smile, and after this season, I am afraid that the Timberwolves and Lakers will become mortal enemies. Later, when it comes to Los Angeles, it will be the same whether it is the Lakers or the Clippers.

Leaving Los Angeles, Zhuang Fei and the Timberwolves traveled to challenge the Golden State Warriors, who have been trading since the Golden State Warriors rejected a trade from the Lakers. Their recent performance has been a lot better, although Szczebiak really can't lead them out of the quagmire, but they are really doing their best, Zhuang Fei can especially feel this in this game, Szzebiak has always been a pitcher in Zhuang Fei's hands, but this game, the league's most famous pitcher has begun to do a lot of other things, such as defense, such as rebounding, and then assists, it can be said that Szebiak is still showing his all-round in this game, The last time Zhuang Fei said to him that he should keep his own characteristics and not get lost, it is obvious that Zhuang Fei's warning Szzczebiak did not listen, he has now reached a state of madness, everything wants to take Carter as the standard, this season Carter and Grizzlies have soared very quickly after the run-in in place, and now they have rushed to sixth in the West, and have begun to challenge the top four in the West, but Szzambiak simply forgot that he and Carter are not the same kind of people at all, and Szzambiak's performance is very good based on the data of this game alone, 22 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, but he didn't have as much as the stats on the court, and his performance was very obscure and struggling. And the result of this game is also without the slightest suspense.

After the end of this game, Szzambiak was very disappointed, no matter how Zhuang Fei comforted him, this former disciple of Zhuang Fei was a little unlistenable, Zhuang Fei is not his head coach now, he can't help Szzambiak find himself, many NBA newcomers will encounter Szzambiak's situation, some people succeed, but more people lose themselves and sink. Of course, Zhuang Fei didn't want Szzerbiak to do this, but now only he could help him.

After the Timberwolves leave Golden State, the next stop is Texas, the Timberwolves will face the Rockets and Spurs on January 25 and 27, this season the Rockets abandoned Pippen to join Francis, the results have not declined much, Francis, the most powerful contender for the best rookie, has performed extremely well this season, has completely become the new core of Houston's outside line, and has even begun to attack the position of the team's boss, as Olajuwon ages, Francis will undoubtedly become his natural successor, And the guard is also very popular in Houston right now.

"Zhuang, your performance this year is too strong" Tang Shuai said helplessly after the game, the Rockets have performed very well in this game, but

It seems that the Rockets and the Timberwolves are not at the same level, which also makes the old coach a little helpless, originally he gave up the position of head coach of the American team in order to bring the Rockets wholeheartedly, but now it seems that the performance of the Rockets is not very good, and the coach of the American team in front of him who replaced him has performed very well in this year's NBA, and the contrast is too great.

"Now that the Rockets are in the rebuilding period, their performance is already very good, and Francis is also a great guard" Zhuang Fei said with a smile, and a smile appeared on his face when he heard Zhuang Fei praise Francis Tang Shuai, and it could be seen that he was also very satisfied with Francis.

In Houston, Zhuang Fei and Tang Shuai have a very good relationship, but in another place in Texas, the atmosphere is completely different.

The first meeting with the Timberwolves won by 41 points, and now Vicky is holding back his anger and preparing to die at home with Zhuang, it can be said that it is almost impossible for the Timberwolves to retreat peacefully in this game, and this game with the Spurs is also the penultimate game of the Timberwolves before January 30, as long as they win this game, the Timberwolves will not be surpassed by the Lakers before January 30 anyway.

"Hmph, the Timberwolves are doing very well now, but it doesn't mean that they can't be beaten, we are confident that we can beat them at home" Vicky was confident in his pre-game press conference, the Spurs' form has indeed picked up in recent times, and it is clear that the Timberwolves' away game has reached the end of his strength in his opinion, and it is natural for the Spurs to beat the Timberwolves in this situation.

In the face of Vicky's aggressiveness, Zhuang Fei is very indifferent, in fact, even if he loses to the Spurs in this game, the Timberwolves can still maintain the first place in the West as long as they win at the next home game against the Jazz, so at the pre-game press conference Zhuang Fei just smiled and said something that made Vicky extremely crazy: "I hope I don't lose 41 points."

Obviously, Zhuang Fei really stimulated Vicky, of course, the Timberwolves would not lose 41 points in this game, not only did they lose so much but also won a big victory again, and the final score of this game was 100-90, and the Timberwolves won ten points away.

"This task is finally completed" Zhuang Fei was a little distracted when the whistle sounded, although the system has not confirmed the completion of the task now, it is only because the alliance has not officially announced the list. But the end result is already a certainty.

"It's so tiring that the team can finally rest" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come
