Chapter 125: A Transaction Call Comes!

After blowing Gobert, Su Chen did not favor one over the other.

For the other two chips, it was also blown, which is nothing more than to convey that these three players who are chips can become the cornerstone of the team.

Of course, Su Chen just said that they could become the cornerstone of the team, but he did not say that it was the cornerstone of the Timberwolves.

Even if someone finds out this post-match interview after the trade, they can't find a problem.

Play a little word game.

"The Curry family has excellent projection genes, Dell Curry is a very good shooter, Seth and Stephen are equally good shooters."

When he blew up Little Curry, Su Chen even took out his brother Big Curry to talk about it.

If other famous stars were said by Su Chen to be on par with a draft loser, it would definitely cause some contradictions.

But Stephen and Seth are both family, and the younger brother can play in the league, so how can Stephen stand up and refute it before he is happy.

It doesn't cost money to brag, Su Chen is blowing with all his might.

Anyway, these players are very important players, and if you want to trade them, you have to add money!

After leaving the stadium, Su Chen returned to the hotel.

After locking the doors and windows, Su Chen turned on the system.

At this time, the system already had unread news, Su Chen was busy blowing the players just now, and there was a celebration held by the team after the game.

This has been delayed and the system has not been turned on.

Su Chen sat down and took a can of Coke from the hotel refrigerator.

He's not an athlete, he can drink happy water whenever he wants, without moderation or anything like that.

After calming down, Su Chen read the unread message.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for their twenty consecutive wins in the regular season and a raffle is available. ”

"Is there a raffle?"

Looking at this system message, Su Chen couldn't help but sigh.

Let the team fight like this, and let the players insist on playing with injuries, isn't it just for this lottery?

If it's a chicken rib thing, it's a big loss.

"Pump!"

Su Chen took a deep breath.

Compared with the calm state of mind in the playoffs, Su Chen is actually a little nervous now.

Maybe the series win is not as exciting as this twenty-game winning streak, except for the very low margin for error in the first game against the Spurs, playing the Grizzlies is a direct sweep.

Although it is hard to play the Heat, it is much less stressful than the first time you played the Spurs.

It can be said that for this lottery with twenty consecutive wins, it was really hard for Su Chen.

The preciousness is second only to the Spurs in that series.

"The draw is complete, and the B-level skill [Ability Value Fixed] has been issued."

After drawing this skill, Su Chen was stunned for a moment.

The things that were drawn before, you can basically guess what the function is from the name.

Analog glasses, medium-bottle reusable stamina drinks, and Eagle Eye are all simple and clear when you hear them.

Fixed stats sound a bit of a twist.

But if it's a B-level skill, it shouldn't be too weak.

Su Chen clicked on the [Ability Value Fixed] skill that was issued.

[Fixed Ability Value (B Level): After activating the skill, you can designate a player, and his ability value will be locked at 80% of the strength of the peak for a whole match. (Note: If the player is too old, it will be reduced to 60%~75%)】

Looking at this skill, Su Chen fell into thought.

The stat value is fixed at 80% of the peak, which means that this skill is of little use to players in the prime of life.

Players like Iguodala, Josh, Lore Deng.

They are now in the prime of their careers, and although some have declined a little, they are still probably above 80%.

After locking at a fixed value of 80%, these players will instead perform a negative growth.

The same doesn't apply to Butler, a rookie like Middleton, who is already a sophomore or third-year.

Butler's third grade is now in the explosive year, and using this skill for Butler is probably also a negative growth.

Middleton hasn't grown up yet, but now Middleton is almost at about 70% of his peak.

For Middleton, there is definitely an improvement, but it is not obvious.

This skill will be very helpful for veterans and rookies.

For example, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is now gradually becoming the leader of the Timberwolves, is still a lot away from his peak, and many times although he has played statistics, he relies on the team's tactical position and ball possession.

And now the league has not adapted to players like Giannis Antetokounmpo, and I don't know whether to use the outside or the inside, and I don't know what strategy to use.

Su Chen has actually been worried that Giannis Antetokounmpo has always relied on other teams to be unfamiliar with playing the wrong position and eating the wrong position bonus, after other teams have studied Giannis Antetokounmpo.

What will Giannis Antetokounmpo do in the playoffs?

But now that he has this skill, Su Chen's concerns about Giannis Antetokounmpo are much smaller.

There is no doubt that Giannis Antetokounmpo's pinnacle is the league's MVP-level supergiant, and his 80% ability is already very strong, plus the 10% bonus of all attributes of the striker's bond.

Giannis Antetokounmpo this season may be playing at a level that will surprise everyone.

This is also why Su Chen has to withstand such a lot of pressure, and he has to win 20 times.

The current Timberwolves are still close to something, except for the trade, which is the increase in his coaching ability.

And with this skill, Gobert McCollum can also happily brush these chips.

"Let's wait for this to be arranged, now the team is too tired and needs to rest."

Su Chen took out the notepad he had with him and wrote down the plan.

At the same time, Su Chen also took a look at the personal panel by the way.

[Host]: Su Chen

[Items]: Simulated glasses (S grade), medium bottle reusable stamina drink (A grade)

[Skills]: Eagle Eye (Grade B), Hot Zone Ignite (Rank A), Fixed Ability Value (Rank B)

[Bond]: Striker Bond (Grade A)

【??? ]: Unlock any of these abilities

[Simulation Glasses (S Level): The tactics you arrange are simulated 1,000 times in an instant, and the players can complete them more smoothly, and the organizational attributes of all members are +20%. 】

[Medium Bottle Reusable Stamina Drink (Grade A): After being used on a player, it can recover a certain amount of stamina, and can be used once in a normal game, and will be automatically recharged after the next game starts. 】

[Eagle Eye (Class B): After turning on the Eagle Eye state, it will continue to consume mental power, mark a place, and be able to clearly see the mark. 】

[Hot Zone Ignition (A-level): Ignite the player's shooting hot zone, and the shooting under vacancy and interference can be improved to a certain extent, duration: one minute, limited to one use in the whole court. 】

[Striker Bond (Grade A): When the team has 3 strikers with a height of 2.01 meters or more on the field at the same time, 10% offensive and defensive organization improvement will be obtained, note: Only for frontline personnel, the ability to organize sports shooting must be above the passing line to take effect. 】

[Fixed Ability Value (B Level): After activating the skill, you can designate a player, and his ability value will be locked at 80% of the strength of the peak for a whole match. 】

"There is an ability or a question mark that has not been unlocked, I don't know what the six rounds have not been drawn."

Su Chen looked at the panel and was a little puzzled.

Three skills have been extracted, and they haven't even pulled out the unknown abilities, so I really don't know what they are.

However, Su Chen doesn't have to worry about it now, and the next time he opens it, he will probably have to wait for the playoffs.

This season, they won 20 consecutive wins ahead of schedule, which is already a certain overdraft for the team.

Moreover, the Timberwolves' lineup is actually not that strong.

Compared to the average team that is bad or has difficulty making the playoffs, the Timberwolves are more quick to heat up, not as slow as they are.

At the same time, they encountered some playoff-level strong teams, such as the Trail Blazers and the Warriors, who were still in the run-in stage of the lineup at the beginning of the game.

The Timberwolves have been working hard all offseason, with players 'voluntarily' giving up their vacations and training in the arena.

Coupled with the simulation with simulated glasses, the Timberwolves actually seem to be a team that has been running in for more than a season.

At the same time, facing strong opponents such as the Clippers and the Heat, which do not need to be run-in, they themselves are resting, and when they meet the Clippers and the Heat, they are back-to-back games away.

Of course, Su Chen's contribution is also the greatest.

It's not just about arranging the advanced tactics that are most suitable for this team, but also about the increase in your own ability to the team.

The Timberwolves' 20-game winning streak in the opening season is not replicable.

Su Chen has experienced this twenty-game winning streak, and this season is not ready to fight for another twenty-game winning streak, and the next thing is the team's run-in and preparation for the playoffs.

After summarizing the notes, Su Chen also closed the system.

After the fatigue of these days, Su Chen is also ready to relax.

Next.

For the Timberwolves to extend their opening streak to 20 consecutive wins, it is naturally a hot topic.

Especially last night's game was broadcast live in the United States, against the favorite Heat team this season, and the record of winning the twentieth consecutive victory on the head of the Heat can be described as full of gold.

But for Su Chen's heated discussion, there are more and more different voices.

Although everyone cannot deny Su Chen's ability to lead the team, he is indeed capable of leading this civilian young Timberwolves to win twenty consecutive victories.

However, Su Chen's use of players can be called atrocities, which has aroused the dissatisfaction of many people.

Barkley: Glory? It was just a run-of-the-mill regular-season win, and the Timberwolves players came with injuries. 》

"Su Chen is keen on fame and fortune, and the Timberwolves may not be so optimistic. 》

"In the next game against the Thunder, will the Timberwolves players still play with injuries? 》

Now many celebrities are not looking down on the Timberwolves' 20-game winning streak.

Even though the Timberwolves won twenty consecutive victories, Su Chen's eating appearance was too ugly.

There are no experts in the industry who treat the Timberwolves as a playoff powerhouse, and they all think that the Timberwolves are still pseudo-strong teams even if they step into the ranks of strong teams.

Although there are many dissatisfaction in the industry, there are still not too many voices condemning Su Chen in the general direction.

After all, the Timberwolves haven't lost a game until now.

Barkley, who is also anxious, chose to go against the Timberwolves when the Timberwolves are now downwind.

The rest of the industry experts are smart.

By the time the Timberwolves lost, they were attacking in groups, and then the Timberwolves were isolated.

Now that the Timberwolves are on a 20-game winning streak, the momentum is still too strong.

At the same time, Gobert and McCollum, players who were boasted by Su Chen, were also reported one after another.

In particular, Su Chen's remarks that Gobert was the biggest contributor to the twenty-game winning streak directly made most of the eyes focus on Gobert.

And under Su Chen's intentional arrangement, a large number of highlights of Gobert and McCollum and others also appeared on major video websites.

Linside can still arrange this kind of thing, the Timberwolves small-ball city belongs to the small-ball market, but these things can be done for money, and the Timberwolves can still afford it.

Oklahoma.

The Timberwolves take on the Thunder on the road.

Although the game was not broadcast live in the United States, it attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone wants to see if Su Chen, a crazy guy, really plans to hit the 21st consecutive victory regardless of it.

If the Timberwolves beat the Thunder again this time after picking off the Heat in the last game, then the strength of the Timberwolves is really a bit scary.

Even if they are overdrawing the physical strength of the players and playing with injuries, their strength cannot be denied.

But this game was a little disappointing for everyone.

Giannis, Iguodala, and Butler were several main players, and they didn't play in this game and were directly rested.

Even the most outrageous thing is that because of Su Chen's fatigue, even Su Chen himself took a turn off.

The Timberwolves are going back to their home court again, and Su Chen is too lazy to run, so he directly lets himself rest.

This game was led by head assistant coach Milosevic to Oklahoma, with the second and third teams to challenge the Western giants Thunder.

It's not purely the second and third team, at least Gobert and McCollum are still here.

Milosevic also came with a mission to give McCollum a lot of the ball, and the ball to Gobert could only be passed by Josh with a lob ball.

Milosevic was originally a coach who was more responsible for the training of players, and although he knew a little about coaching, he was not too good.

Timberwolves starting lineup: Rudy Gobert (C), Josh Smith (PF), Dante Cunningham (SF), Patrick Beverley (SG), CJ McCollum (PG).

Thunder starting lineup: Kendrick Perkins (C), Sergi Ibaka (PF), Kevin Durant (SF), Sapo Sofrosa (SG), Russell Westbrook (PG).

Cunningham This is a player of the original Timberwolves team, and he could have entered the rotation lineup to play a little bit in the original Timberwolves, but although Su Chen did not trade him after taking office.

But his usual job has become a water cooler guardian, and this is the first time he has officially started this season.

can put Cunningham in the starting lineup, the Timberwolves have a large part of the rotation, and even a draft pick like Covington has been rested until no one plays small forward.

In fact, Middleton didn't rotate this time, but if you want to brush the chips today, it doesn't make sense for him to start.

After resting for a long time, even he himself took turns resting, and he didn't expect to beat the Thunder, which was a powerful force in the West.

The Thunder are a little speechless, and the main lineup is ready to stop the Timberwolves from winning 21 consecutive games from them.

But the whole lineup came on the field and played lonely.

There isn't much suspense in this game either.

The Timberwolves are happy, the Thunder are happy, and everyone is happy.

Today, when the ball is rich, even Curry Jr. came off the bench and scored a career-high 21 points.

McCollum scored 30 points today, and Gobert was a standard 20+10, looking like an inside monster.

However, without the Timberwolves' front-line defensive team, in the face of the repeated bombardment of Wei Shao and Durant, the Cunningham people were dizzy.

Beverley also didn't defend against the peak of Wei Shao, but he became the player who was beaten by Wei Shao in his impression, ignoring that he often helped McCollum to lose his position.

In short, McCollum didn't become the one who was blown up, and that's comfortable.

Thunder 105:88 Timberwolves.

The Thunder won a big win at home, successfully stopping the Timberwolves' winning streak.

The opening streak set by the Timberwolves has also become a 20-win record.

The record has come to 20-1, but it still leads the first place in the West and the first place in the league.

However, for this defeat, it was not disappointed by the Timberwolves fans in Minnesota, after all, they could also see that the team had reached a limit.

There is no need to force a 21-game winning streak.

This Timberwolves defeat did not cause much controversy.

Some people thought that the Timberwolves should be rested after the game, but now in this situation, Su Chen has not come up.

The long regular season continues.

The Timberwolves returned to Minnesota to host a challenge from the 76ers.

But what people didn't expect was that.

Facing the 76ers, the weak team of the league, the Timberwolves did not rotate too many people this time, but they still lost to the 76ers.

In a normal game, the Timberwolves are like playing recovery training, and the intensity is not the same at all as before.

Timberwolves 98:108 76ers.

McCollum had a blistering performance to score 35 points and looked like the only thing he wanted to win in this game.

In fact, it was Su Chen who used [Ability Value Fixation] on McCollum, allowing McCollum to reach 80% of his peak ability.

At the same time, there is also [Hot Zone Ignition], as well as stamina potions, as well as tactical resource tilt.

This allowed McCollum to play a super-high stat battle.

In fact, although the data is good, the efficiency is not too high, and the data of 29 shots and 35 points is not high.

At the same time, it is still the defense of a weak team like the 76ers.

But no matter what, just brush.

Gobert didn't score 20 points in this game, only 15 points and 12 rebounds.

Curry Jr. scored 13 points.

Su Chen didn't let the players continue to work the defensive end, this game is basically to brush up the chips with data, and it is normal to lose to the 76ers.

Giannis even played only 15 minutes before he was off.

After this loss, the Timberwolves lost two in a row.

Next up is to San Antonio.

Spurs play at home.

Although the Spurs have a rotation rest this season, they have not rotated too much.

Because the Spurs are very strong this year, Leonard has also grown rapidly this season.

After Popovich sensed the strength of the team, even though the GDP was older, he wanted GDP to guide Leonard's growth.

Today, the Spurs are at home, and the GDP is all at home, and Leonard and Danny Green are also playing.

It's fair to say that tonight is the full Spurs.

Su Chen knows that this year's Spurs are the real No. 1 in the league, and the only team with more than 60 wins this season.

Now the Timberwolves are just exhausted, and the strength of the Spurs is not equal at all, and if they want to win, they have to fight with all their strength.

Su Chen didn't even want to fight for the 76ers, let alone the Spurs.

Now Su Chen just wants to brush the data.

This is also a standard three-chip player's data battle, and Su Chen doesn't bother to arrange any defensive strategy, just whether the offense can make the chip players brush up.

The game is over.

Spurs 117:92 Timberwolves.

The Timberwolves, who were away from home, were unilaterally beaten by the Spurs.

The stats sheet is still McCollum and Gobert's best efforts, and Curry Jr. has been playing more like a super sixth man lately.

The Timberwolves' forward group has suddenly become a 3D attribute, and all the data is in single digits.

For this game, Popovich also saw that Su Chen didn't want to fight him at all.

Originally, I planned to use this Timberwolves, which have been in good form recently, to practice.

But a tactic that can practice the lineup has become a sandbag that is simply beaten, and Popovich also finds the game boring.

Even the handshake with Su Chen after the game was just a casual shake and left, without communicating anything with Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't care, the data was comfortable.

The Timberwolves played five more games.

respectively.

Grizzlies 95:87 Timberwolves.

Celtics 102:103 Timberwolves.

Timberwolves 97:118 Trail Blazers.

Lakers 105:103 Timberwolves.

Timberwolves 97:108 Clippers.

It's true that the recent schedule hasn't been good for the Timberwolves.

In the face of the menacing Grizzlies, the Timberwolves are still in the recovery period and the data brushing period, and they have no to fight at all.

The Celtics scored the game-winning goal at the end.

Facing the Trail Blazers, who have now gradually run in, the Timberwolves are still in a state of no-play as they are against the Grizzlies.

When playing the Lakers, the Timberwolves led 103-102 in the end, but Nick Young made an unreasonable three-point shot and killed the Timberwolves.

Failed to win this soft persimmon pinch competition.

Originally, when he was playing the Clippers, Su Chen had already resumed the basic rotation, and the recovery period was almost over.

However, the Clippers experienced a previous loss, and this game was vigorous, and Paul played bravely in this game to score 31 points and 16 assists.

At the same time, Crawford also feels very smooth, and when Crawford feels good, it is difficult to defend him without playoff-level intensity.

Su Chen has only restored the team's normal regular season intensity now, and has not forced the players to fight again.

The Timberwolves have only won 1-7 in recent games after 20 consecutive wins, and it can be said that the Timberwolves who are resting in rotation have been numb in a wave.

The Timberwolves' record has also changed to 21-7.

Butler Su Chen gave him eight games of rest, and Butler has not played in these eight games, and his previous injury still has an impact.

Iguodala also basically didn't play much during the rotation.

After playing the game with the Heat, Iguodala felt some discomfort in his ankle, and Su Chen also asked him to take care of it.

Without these two important rotations, Su Chen also let the players who played more before take frequent rotations.

The defensive intensity has also dropped to the level of the ordinary regular season, and the ball is still fixed to McCollum and these chip players.

Such a timber wolf can pinch soft persimmons, which is not bad.

But Nick Young's super-level performance made the Timberwolves pinch a soft persimmon one less.

The Spurs now have a 21-6 record.

The Spurs have played one less game than the Timberwolves and are ahead of the Timberwolves.

Even if the Spurs lose to the Raptors led by Lowry and DeRozan, they are still ahead of the Timberwolves due to their win-loss relationship with the Timberwolves.

After the recent season, the Timberwolves have also come down from the top of the league to the second in the league and second in the West.

The first place in the league and the first place in the West has now become the Spurs.

And the Thunder and Timberwolves are now only one win away.

If the Thunder catch up with the same record as the Timberwolves, with their win-loss relationship with the Timberwolves, their ranking can also go to second place and squeeze the Timberwolves to third in the West.

The difference between the Clippers and the Timberwolves is only three wins.

It can be said that although the current Timberwolves are still in second place in the West, there is not much gap between them and the teams behind them.

The Rockets, Trail Blazers, and Warriors are only five or six wins away.

This year's competition in the western region is very fierce.

Minnesota.

Su Chen was a little tired and returned to the team's office building.

But instead of returning to his office, he went to Dennis Lindsay's office.

The office is not closed, it is open.

As soon as Su Chen entered the office, he found that Dennis Lindsay was already waiting for him.

"Sue, you look tired lately."

Dennis Lindsay stood up.

At the same time, he personally brewed a cup of coffee for Su Chen.

"Thanks, I'm really sleepy right now."

Su Chen sat down and thanked Dennis Linde Track.

"I understand now why you're in a hurry to trade, and we're a squad that's so close to making the playoffs."

Dennis Lindsay also sat down and said to Su Chen.

In recent matches, Dennis Lindsay has also been on the lookout.

In fact, it is not only the recovery of the Timberwolves, but also other teams, especially teams in the West, have begun to study the Timberwolves.

The Grizzlies, Clippers, and Trail Blazers teams they met later were all aimed at the Timberwolves.

The Timberwolves' interior problem is indeed relatively big.

According to the core formulated by Su Chen internally, he knew that it was Giannis, but Giannis and Goebel did not match at all.

When Gobert was on the court, the bull corner position played by Giannis, Iguodala and others could not be played.

Gobert is on the court, and all the balls have to be fed to Gobert.

On the court, Gobert didn't show his own offense, but Dennis Lindsay knew from watching the team's training that Gobert's skills were rough to the extreme.

McCollum fed him the ball, and he couldn't even catch it.

Not to mention autonomous offense.

Yes, Gobert's empty catch-up on the court looks pretty good.

However, the feeding space given by Giannis can be basically put in by Muscala's family, and Giannis himself is not bad at playing those balls.

It means that all the chances created by Giannis have become balls for Gobert, and he may not be able to put them in, which is the most unbearable.

Although Muscala can open up space when he is on the field, Muscala can play as a substitute, and the main force is really counted.

Instead of Gobert and Muscala, Giannis can only play center by himself.

Now in this league, there are still many powerful centers, and it is too physically exhausting to let Giannis carry the inside line.

Besides, Giannis's ability to assist in defensive sweeping is top-notch, and it is a waste to use it as a blue-collar interior liner.

"Tell me, what's the news?"

Su Chen waved his hand.

He just heard Dennis Lindsay say that there was a movement in the team, so he hurried over.

"It's the list of players you asked me to follow, there are teams on the list, and I called to ask."

Dennis Lindsay smiled.

"Oh? Who is it? ”

Su Chen asked curiously.

He had five of his previous target candidates.

Varan, Ibaka, Al Horford, Brooke Lopez, Marc Gasol.

Among them, Valan is the alternative among the alternatives, and if it is not necessary, Valan is not chosen.

Lopez and Gasol Jr., Su Chen felt that their team would not take the initiative to make this call.

The Grizzlies are still in the playoffs this year, and the black and white bears are as clear as the team logo for the Grizzlies.

Putting Gasol Jr. on this list is all to see if they can fool around or something, and the Grizzlies are unlikely to take the initiative to make a call about Gasol Jr.'s trade.

It's the same with Da Lopez.

Their local tyrant boss this year has created a luxury lineup, at least on paper, it is indeed luxurious.

Developing rookies is not a priority for them, and the Nets can't make this call about Lopez.

Then there are only two left.

Horford and Ibaka.

Horford's willingness to stay with the Hawks is not very strong, and he basically will not stay with the Hawks, and Horford will let him go for nothing if he becomes a free agent.

Serge Ibaka is the Thunder's disappointment with him.

Ibaka's interior defense ability is top-notch, and his single defense ability is not bad, and his mobility is very strong.

In addition to this, he also has a very precious shot in the small-ball era.

Ibaka is definitely a top blue-collar player, a very, very perfect championship puzzle.

But the Thunder's positioning of Ibaka has never been blue-collar, and they want Ibaka to be the type of player with thick eyebrows like Davis.

Ibaka doesn't have that ability.

Moreover, the ability that Ibaka has shown is not something that can be left behind by a small contract, and they don't want to give such a blue-collar Ibaka to a big contract.

Rather than letting Ibaka go for nothing, the Thunder obviously wanted to change something.

The Thunder are typical of small-ball market ideas, and they'd rather come back with some chips than bet on a championship.

The Thunder have already let go of Harden, and it makes sense to release Ibaka.

Durant and Wei Shao are the future of the team in the minds of the Thunder management, and the others are role players who can be changed at will.

"Thunder, they're willing to take out Ibaka!"

At this time, Dennis Lindsay smiled and said the answer.

Hearing this answer, Su Chen nodded.

It seems that his thoughts are similar, either the Eagles or the Thunder, and he took the initiative to call.

"Sue, why don't you feel surprised at all?"

Seeing Su Chen's calm expression, Dennis Lindsay was a little uncalm, and asked curiously.

Originally, he thought that Su Chen's list was pure, would these teams really come up with a trade.

But Dennis Lindsay did not expect that the Thunder would actually propose a deal from Allah.

This surprised him, Su Chen seemed to have thought of it, and he was not surprised.

For Su Chen, this was really nothing surprising.

If the Grizzlies had a call from the Nets, it would have surprised him.

(End of chapter)
