In this season's NBA, if the Lakers led by Zhuang Fei are the most beautiful team this season, then for the last month or two months, the other team in the NBA may not be much different from the Lakers, and this team is naturally the Minnesota Timberwolves, which are currently in second place in the Western Conference, which ended the Lakers' winning streak and made the Lakers' winning streak stagnant at 37 games.

After that amazing game, the Timberwolves became the darling of almost all the media in the United States, and the head coach of this team, George Carr, who has been discriminated against by the American media since the defeat of the Dream Five team in the World Championships, also turned into the hottest head coach in the NBA this year.

Even some media began to advocate whether it was possible for the NBA coach to beat Zhuang Fei to win the trophy of the best head coach this season, you know, for now, it is a matter of time before the Lakers break the league's regular season win record, and it can be said that the league's best head coach is already in Zhuang Fei's bag.

In this case, George Karl can be compared with Zhuang Fei's achievements in leading the Lakers this season with such a victory, which can also be seen from the fact that these media in the United States are obviously praising the Timberwolves to confront the Lakers, or praising George Karl to confront Zhuang Fei.

And that away loss to the Timberwolves did have a great impact on the Lakers, in addition to the most direct end of the Lakers' winning streak, then the more indirect is to break the Lakers' impression of being invincible this season, and since then, the rest of the league has increased the intensity of the Lakers' encirclement.

Arguably after the Timberwolves beat the Lakers. After gaining great fame and benefits. Nearly every team in the league is preparing to get a win back from the Lakers. In this case, after the Lakers lost to the Timberwolves, the game is getting harder and harder, and almost everyone is really looking for the Lakers to fight hard.

Of course, the Timberwolves have been able to maintain such exposure and reputation in the last two months, or the unanimous recognition of the media, except for their defeat of the Lakers, this team's record after beating the Lakers can simply be described as equally unrebellious, because the Grizzlies have not had a good record in recent times. Or when the Grizzlies began to adjust for the playoffs, the second-place team in the West overtook the Grizzlies to become the second-best team in the league, and with only 11 games left, it has already led the third-place Spurs in the West by four wins, in which case, the Timberwolves have almost locked up the second place in the West.

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, if the Lakers are crazy at the beginning of the season, then the Timberwolves are the rear power, and this team is considered by many experts to have shown a championship appearance. It's just that whether this championship is deliberately exaggerated and hyped by these experts is unknown.

But anyway, this home game against the Timberwolves. Zhuang Fei definitely wants revenge, and the Lakers' players also want revenge, especially the Lakers' leading player Kobe, the Lakers' leading player was played too badly by Bowen and Garnett in the last meeting between the two teams, in this case, this game was trained the day before, the Lakers' leading player was already eager to try, of course, in addition to Kobe, the Lakers, who were also not very good in that game, also held back their strength in this game, and were ready to seek revenge on the Timberwolves in this game.

On March 28, 2005, Los Angeles Staples Arena, as one of the best attendance and box office teams this season, this revenge battle with the Timberwolves naturally attracted the attention of a large number of Lakers fans, in the case of the arena has been full, the off-court square is also crowded, in Los Angeles, a basketball regular season game can cause such a sensation is simply unbelievable, but for this Los Angeles Lakers revenge battle, Los Angeles Lakers fans showed their greatest enthusiasm.

It's just that when this game started, the Lakers, who were preparing to fight the Timberwolves, thought they were wrong, except that the Los Angeles Lakers players were startled when they saw the Timberwolves opposite, and even the Lakers fans who were already screaming and cheering before the game started before the game suddenly lost their voices, and the entire Staples Arena became extremely quiet after the starting lineups of both sides came on the court.

Because at this time, the player who was preparing to jump with Webb was not Garnett, not Wang Zhizhi, but the big Chinese fat man Battle, who rarely played, and at this time, Garnett and Wang Zhizhi, who were known as the NBA's No. 1 Twin Tower Combination, were all sitting under the basket in training clothes, and these two were substitutes? In addition to these two players not playing, even the team's defensive titan Bowen was sitting on the bench at this time, and this guy was not only sitting on the bench, but also wearing a suit, which was not prepared for this game.

"Kenny, if I'm not mistaken, the Timberwolves didn't play the day before this game, right? They shouldn't be back-to-back rotations, right? Could it be that this is a special tactic of George Carr? Looking at the strange Timberwolves on the court and the Lakers players with angry faces, Barkley also looked at Kenny Smith with some confusion at this time and said, but at this time Kenny Smith shook his head helplessly after Barkley asked.

"Obviously, the Timberwolves don't think there is any need for this game and the Lakers to fight here, the Timberwolves did not play the day before this game, but the day after this game, the Timberwolves need to play against the Spurs, which is the decisive game that will determine the second place in the West this season" Kenny Smith frowned when he said this, and continued: "And more importantly, it is clear that George Karl is not prepared to let the Lakers or Coach Z adapt to the strength and style of play of their team in this game, you know, Coach Z's tactical pertinence is the strongest in the league, and if the Lakers figure it out, they will lose the lead for the Timberwolves, who are likely to meet the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals."

"This was expected, but I didn't expect George Karl to do it so thoroughly, Garnett and Wang Zhizhi all sat on the sidelines, which made it clear that they were going to lose on purpose, which was definitely able to make them suffocate their bodies for the Lakers who were bent on revenge" Looking at the Timberwolves starters on the court, Kenny Smith actually laughed at this time.

He admired George Carr's deliberate disgusting of Zhuang Fei and the Lakers in this game. Especially when he looked at the Lakers bench at this time. When I saw the Chinese with an extremely ugly face, I felt that George Carr did a very good job.

"Coach. What do you say we should do now? In front of the Los Angeles Lakers bench, Green looked at his teacher with a depressed face and asked, at this time, the starting lineup sent by the Timberwolves is actually a combination of Battle, Moko, Xue Yuyang, Pierce and Ridno, if Pierce and Ridno are the starters of this team, the other three Chinese except Xue Yuyang, the 03 generation, have established themselves in the Timberwolves and become regular rotation players. In addition to being able to contribute about 6 points per game, the other two people are basically of little use to the Timberwolves, if it weren't for Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor, it is estimated that George Karl would have kicked them out a long time ago, but these two people actually started in this game, which is clearly disgusting Zhuang Fei and the Lakers.

"Since he wants to disgust people, then let's disgust them" Finally, after Green asked, Zhuang Fei's face also changed, and then he ordered Green: "You go and tell the players on the court that this game doesn't matter who the players on the court of the Timberwolves are." We're all going to have to give it our all, since they're not going to start. Then we'll put them on the hook."

After Zhuang Fei said viciously, Green also led the order to the sidelines to remind the Lakers players, but at this time Zhuang Fei's face was still a little not very good-looking, he was ready to break the Timberwolves' system again in this game, if it wasn't for the last umbrella tactics in the last game, the Lakers would have been a fiasco, and the umbrella tactics could not have been used, in this case, many people said that the Timberwolves were able to beat the Lakers in the playoffs is not unreasonable, It's just that now George Carr doesn't even give Zhuang Fei a chance to break their system.

Zhuang Fei's order is to let the Lakers go all out, hoping to use the huge point difference between the two sides to force out George Carr's strongest lineup, if he can really tolerate his team to lose a lot, then Zhuang Fei admitted, if he can't tolerate his team being trampled by the Lakers, replace the main force, which is also what Zhuang Fei wants.

It's just that what makes Zhuang Fei extremely speechless is that halfway through the first quarter of the game, after the Timberwolves were beaten 20-8 by the Lakers in the first half of the game, the Timberwolves' head coach George Karl actually removed the team's only two starting core players, Pierce and Redno, and this directly made Zhuang Fei on the side speechless again.

"Kenny, I swear, George Karl is definitely on purpose" Looking at George Carl sitting in his seat with a smile on the sidelines in the face of the huge point difference between himself and the Lakers, Barkley on the commentary bench actually laughed, it was the first time he saw Zhuang Fei show such a rich look in a game, no matter what the outcome of this game would be, George Carl definitely achieved his goal.

"But the players on the Timberwolves court in this game are miserable," Kenny Smith, who also smiled at this time, also said.

This game is indeed like Kenny Smith said, the players on the Timberwolves court are miserable, Pierce and Ridno did not play again after the first quarter, Ginobili and Garnett and Wang Zhizhi and Bowen did not play for a minute at all, in the face of the angry Lakers they can stop it, in the end of this game the Timberwolves only scored 65 points away, while the Lakers scored 148 points at home, and the most depressed Kobe Bryant even hit a high score of 65 points again.

It's just that at this time, neither the Lakers players nor the Lakers fans have too many happy looks. Even after beating the Timberwolves in this game, they have already established the first spot in the regular season this season with their 68-2 record.

"Stephen, we were fooled" At the end of the game, when Zhuang Fei saw the expression on the faces of the Lakers players after venting, his heart sank again, and at this time, Green on the side also seemed to think of something.

"The Timberwolves took off the gas that the Lakers had been gathering for a long time in this game"

Kenny Smith looked at the Lakers players on the court after the game and said something meaningful, while Barkley on the side was confused and had no idea what his partner was talking about. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
