(Haha, unconsciously 600,000 words, time is so fast)

"Yesterday's Christmas game summary: Knicks lost to San Antonio Spurs at home, revenge hopes were disappointed, Knicks fell to third in the East, Minnesota Timberwolves won away against the Lakers, Timberwolves rose to first place in the West, Lakers fell to second place, Lakers' twenty-game winning streak came to an end, and the Timberwolves ushered in eight consecutive wins"

This year's Christmas war is definitely a grudge war, the Timberwolves and the Lakers, the Spurs and the Knicks, the two matchups have been hot before they start, especially the Timberwolves and the Lakers, the head coach battle, the team ranking battle, the All-Star battle, and O'Neal's 80-point rambling before the game, but with the end of the game, these grievances came to an end again, and new grievances were also born.

"This can't help but be said to be Shaq's complete defeat, Shaq's data is very beautiful compared to the Chinese kid, 18 points and 14 rebounds, and the Chinese kid is only 10 points and 6 boards, but Shaq only had 4 points and 6 rebounds when he faced Wang Zhizhi in the first half, which is a lot different from what he said about 80 points, if there were still people who thought that the Chinese kid's strength was completely unable to compete with Shaq before this game, then after this game I think everyone should change this opinion, I heard that he came on the court with a cold, collapsed after halftime, the professionalism of this Chinese is touching, if I hadn't voted for the All-Star, then after this game, I would definitely choose that Chinese kid, his performance will shame the person opposite him"

"I think Coach Z's personnel arrangement is too conservative, although Wang Zhizhi is a rookie this year, but his performance strength is compared with Jermaine O'Neal, just like the ratio of the two halves of the Timberwolves' game, Coach Z has no need to let him go to the bench because he is a rookie, I think after this game, those who say that Wang Zhizhi can enter the Timberwolves rotation lineup because Coach Z takes care of his compatriots 1 voice can be stopped, Coach Z is not taking care of his compatriots at all but suppressing his compatriots"

Zhuang Fei definitely didn't expect that one of his game works, the power potion bought with the soon-to-expire voucher would have such a great effect after being used by Wang Zhizhi. Because some people can't compete with O'Neill even if they use this potion, such as Dean Garrett, his steps are not as flexible as Wang Zhizhi, and his speed is average, and his height is only 2.06 meters, but it is obvious that Wang Zhizhi is very suitable for this potion. It's good because such a game can beat O'Neal.

"Coach Z completely restrained Phil Jackson tactically, and it turned out that the results of the All-American Coach of the Year selection for three consecutive years from 1996 to 1998 were correct, and many people were Z coaches who should not have won three in a row, and NBA champions could not always be compared to NCAA champions. But this was the first meeting between Coach Z and Phil, and Coach Z won outright, and his tactical use in this game was interesting, and he used a lot of 'chase-down' tactics in this game. He forced most of the Lakers' offense to the periphery, the Lakers scored very high in the second half of the game, but the perimeter scoring has a very big drawback, O'Neal is still under the basket, no matter whether the Lakers' perimeter offense is thrown in or not, O'Neal has no way to quickly return to his defensive position, and the Timberwolves can use this moment to launch a counterattack, this game Timberwolves have a lot of counter-attacks, and the success rate is also extremely high. In fact, it proves that the Lakers can't suppress the rhythm of the Timberwolves like the Spurs, not that the Lakers' defense is not fast enough, but the Timberwolves' advancement is really too fast, and Coach Z's game may have created a new way for all teams that have a headache for the Lakers to fight the Lakers, but I think the entire NBA is probably the only Timberwolves who can chase the Lakers like this."

Zhuang Fei's arrangement in the second half of this game was actually just a variant of the Timberwolves' defensive counterattack, and the effect of this game did surprise Zhuang Fei. But Zhuang Fei definitely doesn't think that this game is really a Phil Jackson, and it is far from it, and now the comparison between the Timberwolves and the Lakers is the same as the tactics used by Zhuang Fei, and they are in a weak position. Although Zhuang Fei won this game, he still lost in the second half in the score. It was only because there was too much lead in the first half that Zhuang Fei finally won, and this chasing tactic had a certain effect, but it was not yet able to bring victory to Zhuang Fei. Zhuang Fei is very clear about this. And in the second half, Zhuang Fei's idea of suppressing the Lakers on offense did not come true, O'Neal's completely liberated Lakers are indeed the most terrifying offensive team in the league, and the Timberwolves are still not enough at this point. …,

"After watching this game, I think everyone should face up to this Timberwolves, we can't look at them as a young team, they have grown strong enough now, we can fully believe that the Timberwolves can now be one of the candidates for the championship this season, they don't lose to the Lakers, they don't lose to the Spurs, and they don't lose to the Trail Blazers, when facing the Lakers chasing points at the last moment of this game, the tenacity shown by the Timberwolves players made the Lakers desperate, Such a team has transcended the boundaries of age and experience, they are mature enough, if you saw in the Western Conference Finals last year that the Timberwolves made a lot of mistakes in the key moments against the old Spurs, then this game of the Timberwolves was perfect, this Timberwolves is the most special team I have ever seen, I hope they can be lucky."

"It's a great game, but it's really just a regular season, the Timberwolves still haven't shown people their defensive prowess in this game, Coach Z's team is still repeating their offense, he showed us that they're not good at defense, which will make it very difficult for them in the playoffs, although New York lost this game, but they only allowed the Spurs to score 88 points, and the Knicks still have a brighter future than the Timberwolves."

The next day, the sports section of the American media reported on the results of the two Christmas games on a large scale, it can be said that in addition to the New York and Spurs that echoed everyone's expectations, then the pre-game favorite Lakers finally lost to the Timberwolves, this result was not expected by many people, of course, although this game is not so earth-shattering, but it also answers all the speculations of everyone before this game...... Mike, how is it, is Wang Zhizhi's condition serious? Zhuang Fei watched the team's assistant coach D'Antoni walk in, put down his newspaper, and then looked at D'Antoni with an anxious face.

"Well, there are no injuries and no major problems, the doctor's diagnosis is that the excessive loss of strength has caused muscle soreness and weakness, and it may take half a month of rest, I think Wang Zhizhi will not be able to play in the next half a month" D'Antoni said with some regret, Wang Zhizhi's performance in the last game made him gain the trust of the Timberwolves, the two most important things for an ordinary rookie in the rookie period are to gain the trust of the team and maintain continued health, other things such as data are not important at all, and now trust is there, But his health is gone, so D'Antoni is sorry now.

"Well, that's it, then let him have a good rest" thought for a while, and then slowly spoke, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although the description of the dynasty system said that it could not bring injuries to the players, but Zhuang Fei did not dare to be completely relieved, and now it seems that this is indeed the case, the schedule of the Timberwolves after this game is not too good, but it is enough to deal with, and the impact of the lack of Wang Zhizhi's rotation point is not too big.

"How is Manu doing now" Zhuang Fei asked again, Ginobili has been resting at home now, which is licensed by Zhuang Fei.

"It's much better, I think I can come to the team tomorrow to report" D'Antoni said with a smile, and Zhuang Fei also nodded.

This game was won, although Zhuang Fei was very happy, after all, the team is now ranked first in the West, and his A+-level task can also let him see the hope of completion, but after the victory in this game, many other things made Zhuang Fei very helpless, such as Wang Zhizhi's performance in this game made Zhuang Fei feel like lifting a stone to hit his own feet, team owner Glenn Taylor of course also watched the Timberwolves' Christmas game, and he was very happy when he saw Wang Zhizhi appear in the lineup, thinking that Zhuang Fei really understood his hard work, also thought that Zhuang Fei really put down his shelf, after the Timberwolves returned to Minnesota, the Timberwolves boss immediately visited Zhuang Fei, Zhuang Fei and his family lived not far away, the businessman also held a celebration party for Zhuang Fei in his own home, but in the end Zhuang Fei refused, it can be said that Wang Zhizhi gave Glenn Taylor a reason to persuade Zhuang Fei.

Also according to the information brought by Su Skirt, the situation in China is actually similar, all the Chinese people are more fanatical after watching this game for Wang Zhizhi to swipe tickets, if the previous swiping tickets make them a little lacking in confidence, then after this game, they have a lot of confidence, and there is no sense of being a thief, and they have the same idea as Glenn Taylor, hoping that Zhuang Fei can straighten Wang Zhizhi. It can be said that after Zhuang Fei won this game, the pressure he faced was no less than before the game.

"It seems that the tragedy of this game is not only Ao Fat, but also myself," Zhuang Fei sighed in his heart and said with a wry smile. And D'Antoni on the side couldn't understand why the manager was always unsettled today.

"Hey, it doesn't matter" Zhuang Fei gave up the entanglement after thinking for a while, then picked up the schedule in front of him, counted it, and laughed loudly.

"17 games away from January 30"

January 30 is the day the All-Star head coach will be announced, and as long as the Timberwolves can keep the No. 1 spot until then, the mission will be accomplished. (To be continued) RQ
