Regardless, the Timberwolves are currently at the top of the league for the time being.

Since the small ball market has not been exposed, let's make it exposed!

You can't win the championship or no one can see you, one championship is not enough for two, and two championships are three.

"It's just a big challenge to have to play a winning streak and have to brush up player stats."

Su Chen held his forehead.

Fortunately, the recent schedule of the Timberwolves has ushered in another wave of weak teams.

"The others don't practice first, so let's lower the rotation and enter playoff mode."

Su Chen thought about it and came up with a plan.

There is one more thing about playing a winning streak to make the team stand out and increase the value of the team's trade chips.

That's what a twenty-game winning streak can be drawn!

Su Chen has also come up with all kinds of ideas now.

For example, if you want to fix Gobert and McCollum, then everyone else has to satisfy the bondage of the striker.

The attribute of the Bonding of the Frontman can increase the offensive and defensive attributes by 10%.

At the same time, for the use of letters, Su Chen also used the letters full, on the one hand, the letters can feed Gobert.

Even if he doesn't attack, his ability to help defend on the defensive end can cover up a lot of the team's shortcomings.

After professional training in the offseason and now continuing to grow in play, Alphabet has begun to go from strength to strength.

Coupled with the 10% offensive and defensive attribute bonus of the Striker's Bond, although the alphabet has not yet entered the peak of strength, it also has seventy percent strength.

Drawing the letters to the full, is the basic game that the team can win now.

"Alphabet has been working hard lately, and the game is counted as full, and when he wins 20 consecutive wins, he will be allowed to rest."

"As for his physical strength, he himself is relatively sufficient, and it shouldn't be a problem to use physical strength drinks."

Su Chen settled on the use of letters.

The young alphabet's physical strength is still very sufficient, and with a medium-bottle reusable stamina drink, his physical strength is not a problem.

At the same time, for the hot zone ignition, Su Chen had already started to use it on McCollum in the last game.

It's not that he's stingy, it's because McCollum didn't even have a hot spot before the last game.

After a few games in the season, there were two mid-range hot spots, not even three-point hot spots.

However, Curry Jr. appeared in a hot spot with three points at the top of the arc after the last game.

"The two shooters started to have a hot zone, and then the hot zone ignition effect was more obvious."

Su Chen thought as he took notes.

As for the skill of Hawkeye, it seems that it is also going to be used.

Originally, Su Chen didn't really want to use this skill, because it was a lot of mental drain on him, which made him very tired.

But to hit the 20th consecutive victory, not only can the letter not rest, but even he has to work hard.

"Twenty straight wins in the opening game, no one will say that Gobert is a brush."

Su Chen closed the notebook.

Before the 73-win Warriors, the NBA's longest opening streak was held by the Rockets.

In the 1993~1994 season, the Rockets, under the leadership of Olajuwon, started the season with a 15-0 record.

If you can really play the opening game with 20 wins and 0 losses, then it will be a real record.

It's not 2015 yet, and that Warriors hasn't been born yet.

In the 2015~2016 season, after Cole's absence, assistant coach Wharton took over.

With that Warriors team to a 24-0 start, and that season, they also played 73 wins, breaking the record set by Jordan and leading the Bulls.

Of course, it was also because they worked too hard in the regular season and wanted to get this record too much, so the Warriors were all tired.

In the finals, he didn't win the championship.

This is related to a problem of tightness.

Is it true that the Rockets, who are on a 15-game winning streak, are they not capable of continuing to extend their winning streak?

Take a look at the opponent who ended the Rockets' opening winning streak.

The Eagles, led by Wilkins, the best of human cinema.

In that game, Maxwell of the Rockets hit three points in a row at the beginning, and role player Brad also seized the open position created by Olajuwon and hit three points in a row.

But the Hawks are reluctant to be the backdrop for the Rockets' sixteen-win runs.

Wilkins knew that Olajuwon's inside line was not easy to mess with, but Wilkins played very hard in that game, constantly impacting the inside line to challenge Olajuwon.

Kevin Willis and Jon Cohenkeke were also united, giving Olajuwon a tough confrontation on the inside, and both of them treated the game as if it were a playoff.

The score of the two teams was originally bitten in front.

Rockets coach Rudy Tomjanovic saw the Hawks' unwavering perseverance in not wanting to be a backdrop in this game, and he didn't use Olajuwon again in this game.

Rudy Tomjanovic also seems to feel that Olajuwon has been used too hard before, and Olajuwon has often played 40+ minutes of playing time in previous winning streaks.

If this game continues to allow Olajuwon to play 40+ minutes of playing time, there is still a good chance to fight it, after all, it is not so easy for Wilkins to really want to touch Olajuwon.

But Rudy Tomjanovic didn't do that, and the Hawks went to the playoffs ahead of schedule, but the Rockets didn't.

This game was also won by the Eagles.

And after the Rockets won the opening fifteen consecutive games, they didn't tighten too much next, winning 58 games all season.

With the configuration of that rocket, if you grit your teeth and fight, there should not be much of a problem with more than 65 wins.

But Rudy Tomjanovic knew that season was a very good championship opportunity for the Rockets, because Jordan announced his retirement after playing last season.

Instead of fighting for those regular season wins, the Rockets kept their focus on the playoffs, and they managed to win the championship that season.

The Rockets, who started with 15 wins, and the Warriors, who started with 24 wins, are representatives of the two aspects.

Both teams were capable of winning so many regular-season games, with the Rockets opting for the playoffs to stay and win the championship, and the Warriors opting for those regular-season records but not winning the championship.

Su Chen chose to forcibly spell this opening twenty wins, and it seemed that he was following the old path of a warrior.

But Su Chen knew that this was not the case.

Only he knows how much of an improvement the Timberwolves will be with this opening 20 wins.

Gobert and McCollum will be the centerpieces of the opening 20-win record, and their trade value will be high.

Even if it's only their first season, there will be teams willing to bet on them.

Gobert and McCollum look like the cornerstone players inside and out, and the attraction is hard to resist if they are traded as a package.

Of course, it's really just what it seems.

At the same time, the lottery brought by twenty consecutive wins is also a benefit that only Su Chen knows.

There weren't too many strong teams in the opening opponents, and the chances were still quite big.

After winning the Clippers, the Timberwolves returned to their home court.

The next opponent is the Knight.

Today's knights are still collecting champions, waiting for James' return.

The Cavaliers' current starting lineup is: Kyrie Irving, Anderson Vallejo, Tristan Thompson, Dieng Vitesse, Alonzo Key.

On their bench, there was also Su Chen's familiar face, Jarrett Jack.

He didn't stay with the Warriors because he won the championship, because he wasn't in the Warriors' system at all, and he still followed his original trajectory to the Cavaliers.

Since the Cavaliers are a team that contends for the top spot, Jarrett Jack doesn't get any shots at all with the Cavaliers, and only occasionally plays the ball.

This was the main player used by Mark Jackson last season.

In this timeline, it seems that the trajectory of Jarrett Jack's life began to change because Su Chen abandoned him when he became the head coach of the Warriors.

However, Su Chen knew that even if he hadn't abandoned him, Jarrett Jack should have slowly faded out of the alliance.

In addition to this set of starters and Jarrett Jack, there are still some available people on the Cavaliers bench.

For example, Delevidova, the guy who later impressed with his excellent defensive performance in the Finals.

Bennett was also on the bench.

"I wonder what kind of helpers the Cavaliers will use Bennett and Wiggins to exchange for James next season?"

Su Chen was also curious.

Love has already been traded to the Bulls by him, unless the Bulls trade Love again next season.

There's nothing to see in this game though.

The Cavaliers, led by Irving and Witesse, have played a professional-level performance, and the Timberwolves, who have already started the playoff intensity of their defense in advance, can still easily win against such a team that does not want to win.

Timberwolves 95:82 Knights.

The scores on both sides were not too high.

The Cavaliers' score is not high because the Timberwolves have turned on high-intensity defense, and everyone is fighting hard defensively.

Irving, in particular, will constantly suffer from high-intensity defensive packages on the offensive end, and the rest of the Cavaliers have a relatively poor ability to handle the ball.

As for the Timberwolves' low score, the pure level is that McCollum's hand is not very good in this game.

McCollum scored 21 points on 20 shots in this game, which was relatively inefficient.

But regardless of whether it is inefficient or efficient, Su Chen will give him the right to make a move and give him a tactical position.

Just brush!

20 shots and 21 points but winning, can this scold the brush?

However, Gobert is still stable, with Alphabet and Josh taking turns feeding him bread, plus he has some ability to grab the board and play secondary offense on his own.

I brushed Gobert with a 20+10 standard data.

Little Curry's performance this time was still average, with 12 points, anyway, it was an addition to Su Chen, and he didn't bother too much to brush him.

The Timberwolves have a 9-0 record and continue to lead the league.

Two more games followed.

The Timberwolves won back-to-back victories over the Nuggets and Celtics.

Nuggets 103:118 Timberwolves.

Timberwolves 98:95 Celtics.

The Timberwolves have an 11-0 record.

The Timberwolves' winning streak continues.

The player stats are also very happy.

McCollum's game against the Nuggets felt very good, and Su Chen also ignited the hot spot for him.

McCollum scored a season-high 31 points in that game.

Gobert is a very stable 20+10, and Curry Jr. is also a stable 15 points.

In fact, the NBA has a very simple logic, whoever has the ball, who has the tactical position, who has the data.

Even if it's a role player, as long as you give him a tactical position and give him a player, he can still give you about 20 points.

Especially with the change of the rules in the small ball era, the increase in offensive rounds, and the average of about 20+ per game can be done with the ball in hand.

This has led to a lot of inefficient scorers in the league.

For example, Kuzma, relying on the accumulation of shots and balls, can also play a pretty beautiful statistic.

Even though these three are still rookies, they can still score those goals with the ball and their tactical position.

It's certainly not that efficient.

But the Timberwolves' basic handicap is too good, and the team's defensive efficiency value has temporarily ranked fifth in the league.

Originally, the size of the Timberwolves was perfect on the defensive end, and the simulated glasses allowed the Timberwolves not to have to run in too much, and the forward bond was a simple and crude increase in attributes.

If it weren't for McCollum and Curry Jr., it would not be impossible for the Timberwolves to rise to the top three in the league in defensive efficiency.

But.

Now a voice is beginning to emerge from the outside world.

It is probably the problem of Su Chen's employment.

When playing the Cavaliers and Nuggets, the Timberwolves were in the eight-man rotation.

When playing the Celtics, because Bradley broke out at the beginning, Su Chen directly turned into a seven-man rotation in order to keep the team at high intensity.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was substituted for two minutes in the final quarter and then immediately replaced.

You know, it's the regular season.

Most of the teams are in a 10-man rotation or even an 11-man rotation, and everyone is still in the stage of adjusting the lineup.

But the Timberwolves suddenly played a seven-man and eight-man rotation, as if they had turned on a playoff mode in order to maintain their winning streak.

Players like Milderton, Muscala, who played well before, suddenly felt like they had no ball to play.

"The Timberwolves have won eleven in a row, but are they too reluctant? 》

"Giannis only rested for two minutes, in order to maintain the winning streak, does Su Chen take the players too seriously? 》

The Timberwolves are on the verge of breaking the opening winning streak of the Celtics and Mavericks, and the Timberwolves may continue to maintain a seven-man rotation. 》

In terms of the media, it was also questioned about Su Chen's decision to let the players play like this in order to impact the winning streak.

Now the Timberwolves' style of play is also being analyzed by many people.

Whether it is from video analysis or data analysis, it can actually be seen that today's Timberwolves are a team that relies on defense.

On the offensive end, it relied on McCollum, Giannis and Gobert to score points.

Butler is now out of the rotation at one point.

McCollum's efficiency is actually not very high, but now for a defense like the Timberwolves, McCollum's efficiency can support the Timberwolves' offense.

If McCollum is shooting only 38 percent from the field, but the Timberwolves can limit opponents to 30 percent, then McCollum is a qualified offensive player for the Timberwolves.

Today's Timberwolves rely on such excellent defensive ability to play the current winning streak.

But with such defensive intensity, the physical exertion of the players is destined to be very large, and on this basis, Su Chen can actually do such a thing as a seven-person rotation!
