In fact, before tonight's game, only 40 percent of the tickets for the Clippers vs. Timberwolves were pre-sold, or more than 7,500 seats.

This is a relatively low number of pre-sales, and this year's season ticket sales are not good, without the season ticket base, how much box office can be supported by loose tickets and package tickets.

And the Timberwolves are different from the Suns and Mavericks, they are the same millennium old team as the Clippers.

In terms of drafts, trades and other operations, the Clippers can be regarded as West Poison and North Beggars, plus the Southern Emperor Magic, the East Evil Knicks, and the Zhongshen Grizzlies, which can be called the top five bad teams in the league.

This kind of team and the Clippers have a rookie pecking at each other, how can Los Angeles fans buy it, and several big TV stations have not given the whole United States a live broadcast signal, which is a game that no one cares about.

But compared with a game that no one paid attention to at all, such as the Bobcats playing the Nets, this game still has more to watch.

First of all, the performance of the Clippers in recent games has attracted the attention of Los Angeles fans, and the two shutouts have given them enough talk.

Secondly, the evaluation of the media is very important, and fans are easily influenced by critics and have likes and dislikes for the team.

And the Clippers' performance in the last few games is very good, even if they lose, the loss is not ugly, and they play very methodically and energetically.

This has won the unanimous affirmation of many ball critics and experts, who believe that the Clippers are on the right path to recovery.

Because of these highlights, many fans poured in and bought a lot of bulk tickets, doubling the attendance.

Before the game began, Ida took out a sports magazine from her bag and handed it to Min Congda, flipped to one of the articles, and said: "Mr. Smart, look, this is the sports illustrated weekly magazine released yesterday, and this article specifically mentions our Clippers and gives a high evaluation. ”

Min Congda took over the magazine, Sports Illustrated, the most famous sports magazine in the United States, and it was a privilege for an athlete to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

It's as if a cosmopolitan figure was on the cover of Time magazine.

So the influence of this magazine among sports fans is very large.

"The Los Angeles Clippers look on the right path to revival...... Stephen Curry's two three-pointers showed the potential of the controversial No. 1 pick...... Smart Min's operation doesn't look as bad as it seems... It remains to be seen whether this once-cursed team can break through the shackles and open up a new situation??? ”

"What the hell is this stuff written about? Are we on the road to revival? I'm obviously messing around. Smart Min's operation doesn't look as bad as it seems? Come on, I didn't do anything, isn't it bad if I didn't do anything? ”

Min Congda couldn't understand that he was obviously messing up and doing nothing, so why wasn't it bad?

Not to mention, Min Congda's attitude of "doing nothing" has surpassed many blind teams in terms of effectiveness.

And the representative team that operates blindly is the Timberwolves that the Clippers played against tonight.

The Timberwolves "picked up" in this year's draft and got Uncle Mu's second, Hashem Thabitt.

In the summer league, Tabit's performance was still remarkable, relying on his height and arm span, and often staged a hot pot feast on the defensive end.

In pre-season, as the opponent's level rises a notch, his performance drops a notch.

In the regular season, when the real battle began, Tabit's performance was completely unwatchable.

The Timberwolves have played four games so far, with Thabit coming off the bench three times and scoring a total of two points.

The best performance was 2 points, 6 rebounds and 3 blocks, and you can still see these 3 blocks, but unfortunately the team lost.

The Timberwolves were also trying to have Tabit as the team's starter and LeFou's interior partner.

Now it seems that whether this guy can survive in the NBA is a question, and the season start is really terrible.

Ringling, another rookie from the Timberwolves, has fared much better and has already secured the Timberwolves' starting point guard position.

In the first few games, he averaged 15 points per game, and in the first game of his career, he scored 18 points and 4 assists in a single game, helping the Timberwolves get off to a good start and win their first win at home.

There was also a good performance in the next few games, so Timberwolves head coach Kurt Rambis was relieved to hand over the burden of organizing the offense to him.

The game between the two sides was about to start, and Min Congda returned the magazine in his hand to Ada, saying, "Ada, will these articles have an impact on the support of fans?" What is the feedback from the fans in the media department now? ”

Ida said: "There will definitely be an impact, Sports Illustrated is very influential, and the number of letters and private messages received in the background of our email and media accounts is increasing, and there will be more and more fans who are interested in us." ”

Min Congda picked his face, these garbage media, will write blindly, isn't this adding resistance to my mess?

We have to find a way to hedge away the comments of these experts who are bullish on the Clippers.

At this point, the two sides had already jumped the ball and started playing, and the Clippers started the game with a 7-0 offensive shockwave.

Randolph scored back-to-back low shots under the basket, and then Eric Gordon hit the basket on the counterattack and made a layup, causing a foul on Jefferson.

Go to the free throw line and make a free throw.

As a maturing basketball audience, Min Congda's unfavorable start to the game could no longer make him irritable.

He just silently watched the Timberwolves' clumsy performance on the court, this offense, this defense, if there is a rule, there is still there.

After all, it is a professional NBA team, and a bad team is relatively bad, not absolutely bad, but at a certain level.

The Timberwolves follow the traditional two-strong interior line in the lineup, and Al Jefferson and Kevin Love are the standard configuration in the current NBA.

After all, the Western leader, the Lakers, has three high deterrence there, and each team will find a way to equip a good interior combination.

It's just this time, the main big forward Kevin Love is absent due to injury, and the opponent after the start of the Clippers season must have an injury and the benefits continue.

Al Jefferson scored the Timberwolves' first goal in the low post to ease the team's scoring drought.

The two sides started a one-point, one-goal battle, and the Clippers always maintained a five-point advantage.

"Why is the Timberwolves' defense and offense unfocused, just play? It was said that our No. 3 position was a weakness, and I didn't know what to target. Let's talk about your rebounding ball...... Randolph grabbed the frontcourt rebound again......"

Randolph grabbed three frontcourt rebounds in the first quarter, and attacked the Timberwolves' baskets in a row, causing the Timberwolves to foul one after another.

"Did this kid Randolph take Viagra? Why is it so fierce? What's your situation? ”

Randolph scored 12 points in the first quarter and grabbed five rebounds, including three in the frontcourt.

Relying on Randolph's excellent performance, the Clippers led the Timberwolves by five points at 33:28 in the first quarter.

Once the team is in the lead, the players will play more relaxed and the coach will be more comfortable with the formation.

After the defeat of the back three in the last game, Dunleavy decided to try a second team of one big and four small.

He fielded Curry, Jordan Jr., Gordon, Thornton plus Ricky Davis.

On the Timberwolves' side, Rambis replaced No. 4 pick Hashim Tabitt.

I hope this big man can open up on the field, otherwise the team's high-level show will be wasted.

As a result, little Jordan is enough to stay on the court, and Tabit is even more stupid than him!

Tabit and his teammates made a pick-and-roll combination, and went down to catch the ball and attack the basket directly.

He didn't hold the ball steadily, he was slapped by Jordan Jr., and Tabit jumped up and dunked along the inertia.

When he hung without the ball in the basket, the Clippers players and Jordan Jr. were already on a fast counterattack.

Curry made a high hanging pass to the inside, Jordan Jr. received the ball, and the basket was dunked with one hand!

In the next few rounds, Tabit's performance on the court was a disaster, and the defense was always one step slower.

On the offensive end, he has been buttery, unable to control the ball well, and his teammates don't want to pass the ball to him.

With the Clippers extending their lead to nine points at 41-32, Rambis had to replace Tabit.

And Jordan Jr. played well during this time, scoring 4 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 block.

A second-round show, which sets off Tabit even more incompetently.

Min Congda looked up at the ceiling and sighed, "Why didn't I think about choosing this product at the time!" Mistakes, mistakes! ”
