Garnett hurriedly let go of Lin Fei with a smile, stabilized his mood a little, and nodded:

"Well, Lin, you're right, now is not the time to celebrate!"

"But there's no doubt that your performance tonight saved the team and saved me!"

"Really, thank you!"

Looking at the "Wolf King" who revealed his true feelings, his eyes even flashed with light, and Lin Fei was also a little moved.

No one really knows how flustered Garnett was and how heavy the pressure was when the Timberwolves trailed by 12 points in the final eight minutes of the final quarter.

This season, Timberwolves owner Glenn Taylor has a total salary of more than 70 million US dollars in order to create a three-headed monster.

Fourth out of 30 teams in the league.

The NBA salary cap for the 03-04 season is 43.8 million, and the luxury tax line is 50.23 million.

According to the league's rules, the team has to pay a luxury tax of one dollar for every dollar of money that exceeds the luxury line.

As a result, the Timberwolves owner has paid $20 million in luxury tax this season.

And the biggest reason for this is Garnett's sky-high contract.

As we all know, in the 1998 offseason, Garnett signed a super contract with the Timberwolves for 6 years and 126 million US dollars.

What can be said about the impact of this contract, it can be said that it is terrifying, which directly led to the suspension of the league and the shrinkage of the season in 98-99.

This season is also the last year of Garnett's six-year contract, and the salary increase has reached 28 million US dollars, the first in the league.

Even the "big shark" O'Neal has a salary of more than 24 million this season.

With more than half of the team's salary cap, if the team is swept by the Lakers Gentlemen 4:1 in the Western Conference Finals,

The "wolf king" is really not worthy of his sky-high contract, and he is also sorry for the tens of millions of luxury taxes paid by the boss.

Although the direct cause of the Timberwolves' 1:3 deficit in the West is Sam Cassel's injury,

But the "alien" Cassel only got an annual salary of more than 5 million this season, but he played a 15 million-level point guard, which is worthy of the boss and fans.

The reason why there is no one on the Timberwolves guard line after Cassell's injury is that Garnett's big contract restricts the team's reinforcement.

But tonight, with Lin Fei's unexpected outbreak, the Timberwolves escaped from danger, continuing the suspense of the Western Showdown.

And Kevin Garnett's 31 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals, especially the key steals and defensive rebounds in the final moments, are also worthy of the true leader of the team.

At least from tonight's game,

The little-known Lin Fei is the well-deserved savior of the Timberwolves and his "wolf king".

"Lin, your ultra-long three-point just now is so handsome, 12 meters away, you can shoot it, how dare you?"

"Madman" and Szebiak and others also rushed up excitedly, although the team series is still behind, the situation of qualifying is still very unfavorable,

But tonight's big reversal really boosted the team's morale, especially the Timberwolves, who saw the hope of a reversal series.

"Ratrier, you passed the ball to me, and asked me why I dared to shoot?"

Everyone laughed, and the "madman" with a straight temper and a big nerve touched the back of his head with his hand and said embarrassedly:

"I don't know why I passed the ball to you at that time, I always feel like if I give you the ball and you can score immediately!"

"I admit that I gambled, but I was right!"

Si Zebiak rushed up from the middle, put his arms around Lin Fei and the "madman" respectively, and said with a smile:

"You two are really a perfect match, one dares to pass and the other dares to vote!"

The official height of the "madman" is 1.96 meters, and at this time, Lin Fei is standing next to the "madman", and the height is not far behind, at most 2 cm shorter.

According to the body side data of last year's draft, Lin Fei's bare foot height is 1.90 meters, and his shoes are 1.92 meters.

But now it has obviously risen a little, and the height of shoes is about 1.94 meters.

For the height is still growing, Lin Fei is naturally more satisfied, and it will be more perfect if his arm span can run again.

Jordan and Kobe Bryant's height is 1.98 meters, and Lin Fei's expected perfect height is naturally about 1.98 meters.

No matter how high it is, it is not very good, and it will seriously affect the coordination of the body.

But fortunately, Lin Fei has a systematic body, and I believe that with the accumulation of free attribute points, the basketball attribute will gradually improve.

Lin Fei can also transform his dynamic attributes, physical fitness, bounce, explosiveness and coordination through harder training and the help of system props.

[Ding, congratulations to the host, hit 7 three-pointers in a row in the final quarter of the game, helping the team to reverse and win, and gain 50 free attribute points]

[Ding, the system randomly rewards: 10x speed training card, 10x endurance training card, 10x strength training card]

Listening to the system's series of rewards, Lin Fei's eyes also shot bright, it seems that this system is still very conscientious.

If you win a game, you will be rewarded with 50 free attributes, but I don't know how much you can increase when you add them to the basketball attributes.

Lin Fei's consciousness clicked on the three reward cards in the system's backpack, and the system's explanation immediately popped up:

[Ding, three ten-fold training cards, which can help the host increase the training effect of the three attributes of speed, strength, and endurance by ten times, and are valid for one month]

Lin Fei was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and glanced at the system panel, his current speed, endurance, and strength three personal attributes were not up to standard.

They are Speed 59, Endurance 48, and Strength 50.

You must know that if these three basic attributes can be significantly improved, it is a transformation of talent.

Especially in the face of tougher defenses, the improvement of speed, endurance and strength all help Huang Tian run in a better position in the confrontation, so as to receive the ball more easily and score.

Lin Fei's unexpected outbreak in this game can be said to have caught the Lakers and the "Zen Master" off guard.

But then back to the Lakers' home court of the Western Conference Finals G6,

The coaching team of "Zen Master" will definitely carefully study the characteristics of Lin Fei's off-ball running position and formulate a more targeted defensive strategy.

And Lin Fei's black hole attribute on the defensive end is likely to be targeted by the Lakers on the offensive end.

Despite losing the game, the Lakers players still walked to the player tunnel with their toes high.

Bryant smiled gentlemanly and waved goodbye to the Timberwolves fans who shouted at him on both sides of the tunnel:

"Thanks, we'll see you next season!"

Kobe Bryant couldn't have made it clearer that the series would not return to the Target Center arena, and the Lakers would end the battle in the next game.

O'Neal also slapped his belly lazily and smiled at a white fan wearing Garnett's No. 21 jersey next to the players' tunnel:

"Hi man, I think you should be wearing the number 22 shirt instead of the number 21!"

The meaning of the words "big shark" is also obvious, if there is no No. 22 Lin Fei's 7 three-pointers tonight,

Their Timberwolves hero star Kevin Garnett can now squat on the floor and pound his chest.

To be honest, O'Neal's performance tonight was not outstanding, only 17 points, 13 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 5 fouls.

Far inferior to the Wolves' 31 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals.

But O'Neal only had 11 shots tonight, and he had no intention of competing with Kobe Bryant for the ball, and he played more Buddhist overall, which was also a potential factor in the Timberwolves' comeback.

However, when he returned to the home stadium for the G6 of the West the day after tomorrow, O'Neal knew that he had to take his responsibility.

If you want to beat the wolf king, for O'Neill, who is 32 years old and at his peak, he still has a hand.

The boss of this Lakers team has always been him, not the arrogant No. 8!

After Lin Fei and the players celebrated a little, they also got the official ball for tonight's game from their teammates.

and walked to the technical table and negotiated with the referee team.

This is Lin Fei's famous battle on the NBA court, and he hit 7 three-pointers in the final quarter to score 21 points, directly helping the team complete a big reversal.

Therefore, Lin Fei must collect the official ball of this game.

Joey Crawford, the referee who blew tonight's game, also smiled and agreed to Lin Fei's request to collect the game ball, and patted Lin Fei on the shoulder and said:

"Kid, you're playing great, I'm lucky I was able to blow for tonight's game!"

"Keep up the good work, and look forward to your better performance in the future!"

I have to say that the bald Crawford outside the game is still very kind.

Lin Fei is not good at polite negotiations in public, but he still understands the basic human feelings, so he also blew a few words against his will:

"Mr. Crawford, your blow is just as good! God bless you with good health! ”

Offending a famous NBA referee of Crawford's level is not a wise choice for a player.

Duncan sat on the bench and laughed for less than three seconds before being ejected directly by Crawford, which is really a bit crazy.

ESPN's beautiful anchor and reporter Erin Andrews also held the microphone at this time, twisted her sexy waist, and walked up to Lin Fei with a smile like a flower.

"Lin, it's a great honor to interview you!"

"There's no doubt that you're the hero of tonight for the Timberwolves and the Target Center arena!"

For Erin Andrews, a famous beauty reporter of ESPN, Lin Fei, as a die-hard NBA fan in his previous life, naturally heard of her deeds.

At this time, Erin Andrews had just entered ESPN, and her career had not reached its peak until around 07, and she was elected the most beautiful female anchor in the whole meter for two consecutive years.

Andrews, who is 1.78 meters tall, weighs only 56 kilograms, convex and backward, and his figure can be said to be very slim.

Tonight's Erin Andrews is wearing a white shirt with hot denim super shorts, long wavy blond hair, and a pair of long legs with white and tender skin.

Coupled with the black strappy heels, the altitude is already close to 1.90 meters.

Standing beside Lin Fei, he was only a little shorter.

Under the lens of the cameraman, the two actually seem to be a good match, like a couple.

The 26-year-old Andrews, for the 20-year-old Lin Fei, is definitely a royal sister.

"Miss Andrews, I'm also honored to be interviewed by such a beautiful woman as you!"

As a human being in two lives, Lin Fei has a more mature and stable mentality, even if the sexy beauty is on his side, he is still calm and elegant, and his conversation is light.
