The third quarter of the game between the Timberwolves and Bulls ended, and the players from both sides returned to their respective rest areas.

Wu Dao didn't say a word after returning to the rest area, but took the sweat towel handed by his teammates and wiped the sweat on his cheeks with his own care.

Coach Philip also focused on observing the expression of the martial arts, and couldn't help but ask with some concern, "How is it?" Can it still hold up? ”

"Do you need to adjust it?"

Admittedly, Coach Philip was selfish when coaching the Timberwolves, or in the NBA, who is truly selfless? That kind of person would not have appeared in this alliance at all.

It's true that Philip wants to take control of this team after becoming the head coach of the Timberwolves, but he also understands one thing deeply, this team has martial arts and no martial arts, and it is completely a two-level team.

It is difficult to say how far the existence of Martial Arts will raise the Timberwolves' record, after all, Martial Arts has just entered the league, he has not yet proven himself in the playoffs, and there are no solid honors at hand.

But one thing Philip is very clear, that is, the timberwolves with martial arts have infinite possibilities. No matter what kind of opponent they are, as long as the martial arts are on the field, they can always find a chance to win!

Even in the face of Michael, who is on fire, they Timberwolves will not necessarily lose!

And it is precisely because of this that Philip is so concerned about the physical condition of martial arts, Philip knows that if martial arts can't bear it at this time, if Michael continues to maintain that competitive state in the fourth quarter, their Timberwolves will have no hope at all in today's game.

Philip hasn't coached many games in the NBA, but a coach of his age knows how terrible Jordan can be when he plays.

"Adjustments?"

"No, I don't."

"That old man has been playing longer than me, and he will only be more tired than me!"

Wu Dao is also a player who has been trained since childhood, although he started in junior high school, but there is no window period in his basketball career, not to mention that his physical talent is also quite outstanding.

In terms of physical reserves, martial arts can be called a physical monster, although it may not be able to be compared with Jordan at his peak in this regard, but compared with the elderly Jordan, martial arts is not false at all.

Seeing that Wu Dao said this with such certainty, Philip also nodded slightly, and then actually asked Wu Dao: "Do you need to let Marbury and Garnett go up and share the pressure with you?" ”

"Kevin's defense should be able to help you, and Stephen's play is a little more consistent than Chris's."

"It will make you more comfortable receiving the ball, and it will reduce your physical exertion to a certain extent!"

Did Philip say this because he was transsexual?!

Of course, it is not easy to want a person like him to change his nature, but in today's game, when Philip saw with his own eyes that martial arts were actually able to fight with Jordan, who felt hot, the concept in his mind would more or less undergo some changes.

He couldn't imagine what kind of style a young man of martial arts level would show after continuing to experience in the NBA for a few years.

Is there a possibility that Wu Dao can take over the baton of the first person in the league from Jordan's hands?!

Philip's impression of martial arts has always been that he is an "excellent newcomer with superstar potential", but now, martial arts has shown more than simply "superstar potential" in his offense and defense with Jordan.

It's a young superstar who has already cashed in on his talent.

As a coach, Philip is well aware of what kind of attitude he needs to take when facing these two types of people.

In the face of young people who have not yet fulfilled their talents, they should be praised and pressed. But for a young superstar who has already formed, he needs to give the other party a certain respect.

When is it time to put on a coaching stand? It is only when the team loses, when the "superstar" himself begins to reflect on his own problems, that the coach needs to be like a coach.

And most of the other time, the meaning of the coach's existence is how to make that superstar play comfortably.

In fact, it was only today that Philip began to re-examine the personal ability of martial arts, and the young figure of Team B that he saw in the ABCD training camp had gradually dissipated in Philip's mind.

In fact, people are like this, and the inherent impression in their minds is actually difficult to dissipate.

When I was a child, the partner who fished with a runny nose, no matter what changes took place in the future, the most impressive thing was still his stupid appearance with a runny nose.

In Philip's eyes, martial arts is the martial arts of team B in the ABCD training camp, and in the eyes of Timberwolves fans, martial arts is the super rookie who averages nearly 40 points per game and can compete with "God" for a long time.

"Since that's what you mean, coach."

"Then let's switch to Garnett and Marbury."

Although Wu Dao is now thinking about how to get to Jordan, the most basic acuity will not be missing, and he will not leave people with the tongue of "interfering with the coach's employment", so he followed Philip's words and said casually.

"Well, good!"

Philip nodded, and then made a substitution.

Although Wu Dao thinks that he has handled it well, in fact, when Philip throws that question at him, Wu Dao does not directly refuse to say "I have no opinion", which means that Wu Dao has begun to interfere with the coach's employment.

Although the media will not use such a thing to attack Martial Arts, the Timberwolves players listened to Philip's words and looked at Martial Arts with a slight change.

There was no anger or dissatisfaction, and there was a trace of awe in the eyes of the team members looking at the martial arts.

This is not a reverence for the strength of martial arts, but an awe of the "rights" that martial arts possess.

When the Timberwolves made personnel adjustments, the Bulls also quickly made personnel adjustments, and the 218cm white big center returned to the court.

The Zen master is a discerning man, and he knows very well that this game is not only a game between the Timberwolves and the Bulls, but also a game between Jordan and the rookie.

What the other players have to do is to tighten their control of the basketball ball and to grasp the opportunity when it arises.

In the third quarter of the game, although Jordan and Wu Dao had a hot fight, both of them had the habit of passing the ball to their empty teammates near the basket point, which indirectly showed that the two of them competed not only in their personal ability.

Both of them are relatively standard core plays, and what they compete with is "all the weapons" they can use.

"Beep-"

The break quickly passed, and the Bulls and Timberwolves returned to the court with the sound of a buzzer ringing through the court.

Jordan, who entered the court, immediately raised his eyes to look at the martial arts of the court players, and saw that the young man was still staying on the court, and a slight smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Bulls ball possession.

The basketball came out of the backcourt, and Ron Harper, who played three quarters, did not stay on the court, and it was Cole who replaced him.

Kerr's physique is not much different from Marbury's, and it is predictable that Marbury will have an easier time playing against Kerr than against Ron Harper.

And Kerr's defense is not too strong, and in the face of Kerr, Marbury will actually have a lot of single opportunities.

Marbury, who only returned to the court in the fourth quarter, didn't have much thought of "making a big difference" even when he saw the Bulls' guard replaced by Kerr.

This time back on the court, he knew very well his task, as long as Takemi's offensive efficiency could be maintained, what he had to do was to give the ball to Takemichi's hands steadily, not do anything superfluous.

What Marbury is going to do, that's what Cole is doing right now!

"Whew!"

The basketball cracked through the air with an indiscrete sound.

The basketball fell into Jordan's hands, who took the ball, quickly swept the ball in the air, and then tapped his toes to the right, after a simple tentative step, Jordan dropped the ball with his right hand, but the whole person jumped backwards to the left back.

In the next moment, Jordan took his left foot as the axis, quickly kicked the ground, stepped forward with his right foot, and accelerated towards the right side of the martial arts.

The confrontation between Wu Dao and Jordan has long escalated, and referees have become commonplace with this level of strong fighting.

In the face of Jordan's impact, Wu Dao leaned back slightly, and after avoiding Jordan's "charged blow" to a great extent, he quickly slid to follow up and took the initiative to meet Jordan's impact with his body.

"Bang !!"

Wu Dao and Jordan made physical contact and let out a muffled sound.

After the fierce physical confrontation, Jordan's speed was slowed down, but his physical posture was still maintained quite well.

Jordan, who was approaching the free throw line, exploded a ball and charged up, and then jumped forward side by side, and after his body hit Wu Dao's body again, Jordan also jumped quickly, his arm blocked Wu Dao's arms in one fell swoop, grabbed the ball with his left hand, and put on a shooting pose.

Although Jordan's wrist flicked, the basketball quickly crossed over Wu Dao's head and flew towards the basket.

"Bell~~~"

However, this time, Jordan's projection was not as "invincible" as before, and the basketball hit the edge of the basket and was directly collapsed out of the basket.

The short break seemed to disturb Jordan's excellent hand.

Under the basket, Ben Wallace used his body to push away the Bulls' interior players and create a good environment for Garnett to win the board.

Although Garnett ran and jumped, the rebound was also pinched by Garnett.

"Are you tired?"

"Michael?!"

When Wu Dao saw his teammates grabbing the rebound, he also grinned at Jordan and mocked.

Such a scene has actually happened many times before, when Wu Dao and Jordan have a ball that has not been scored, the other party will often find an angle to sarcastically.

"Is it possible?"

Jordan asked rhetorically, and the "Pupil of Death" glared at Martial Dao.

Sometimes, Jordan's strength is not only reflected in his ball skills, but also in his words and demeanor.

Kwame Brown must be able to understand the meaning of these words

Wu Dao didn't have a lot of things, just glanced at Jordan and quickly ran towards the front court, and the basketball was transferred from Garnett's hands to Marbury's hands.

Marbury, who had just come on the court, was full of energy after a full quarter of rest, and as soon as the basketball started, he began to accelerate to the fast break.

And the figures of Wu Dao and Garnett also overtook Marbury one after another, and when they saw their teammates entering the front court one after another, the speed of Marbury's feet was raised again.

After a quick steal from Kerr in front of a body in disguise, Marbury started to cross the halfway line and there was almost no cover in front of him.

The Bulls' players returned to defense quickly, and there were not many people, Jordan, Kerr, who was pretended, and Rodman, who returned to the court, and then there were none.

Cooke's running speed is not fast, and the Bulls' big center obviously can't keep up with a physical monster like Garnett.

Three-on-two in the frontcourt.

Jordan's didn't care about others, just stared at martial arts.

Seeing that there was no chance to play the ball to Takemichi, Marbury went to the basket himself, and after attracting Rodman's defense, he instead sent Garnett an open catch, and as Garnett split the ball into the net, the Timberwolves immediately added two points to the scoreboard.

"Defend!"

"Run faster!!"

After the Timberwolves scored, the anger in Jordan's heart was also vented towards the belated Cook.

Jordan is a tough guy, himself, and quite his teammates.

No matter how much Jordan glorifies himself in his autobiography and documentary, he is that kind of person, and that will not change at all.

When his teammates play well, Jordan can talk and laugh with you, but once the performance does not satisfy him, or even drags him back, then the face of "God" will come out.

After being scolded by Jordan, Cooke's skin obviously tightened a little.

The pace of running towards the front court is also obviously a little faster.

As the Bulls entered the frontcourt, the basketball came to Jordan's hands again.

Facing Wu Dao, who was defending about half a meter in front of him, Jordan did not choose a three-point shot, dragged the ball down, and simply shook it to his right side, Jordan also quickly changed direction, and his body leaned on Wu Dao's body again.

After rushing into the three-point county line under the pressure of Wudao, Jordan turned around close to Wudao, and the moment he was stuck in front of him by Wudao, Jordan raised the ball and shook it, and then successfully lit up Wudao before throwing a backward jumper.

Excellent footwork and feints, even if it is martial arts, in the face of Jordan's series of operations, he can only raise his hand to try to interfere.

I thought that such a defense would be of little use to Jordan, but after a soft sound from the direction of the basket and Garnett's loud cheers.

Martial Arts, who looked back at the basket, had a slight smile on his face.

"This old boy can't do it!"

"Attack!"

Wu Dao let out a low cry and quickly ran towards the front court.

Take advantage of his illness to kill him.

Wu Dao didn't want to give Jordan a respite at all.
