Chapter 144 Selected for the Rookie Challenge (please subscribe, ask for a monthly ticket)

When the Jazz players walked into the target center, they were surrounded by overwhelming boos. It was not that the two teams had any grievances.

It's that the Wolves are in a winning streak, and the team's new favorite is hitting the best of the month.

The fans wanted to win very much, so they began to interfere with the Jazz's mentality before the game started.

It's a pity that the Jazz's main players are veterans who have experienced many battles. Facing the interference of Wolves fans, they don't blush or heartbeat.

If you shush, I'll hit mine. If you don't accept the end, try it?

Regardless of whether you are aiming for six consecutive victories or competing for the best of the month, the Jazz will go all out, and we are the upstarts who overthrow the league's upstarts!

Ah bah, we are not upstarts, we jazz have fought against gods before!
What does the Wolves have? The team's best record is only the Western Conference Finals, and there is only one time. What is there to be proud of?
This is the inner monologue of the Jazz players. To be honest, they really look down on the Wolves. A team that has missed the playoffs for seven consecutive years will suddenly rise because of a rookie player?Everything is just an illusion!

The Wolves still continued the old lineup in this game, and the Jazz started very strangely: Devon Harris, Josh Howard, Gordon Hayward, Al Jefferson, Paul Millsap .

Among the Jazz's starting five, there are four forward players. There is really no one in this lineup.

There is no big center among the players on the field, but the average height is really not low. Except for Harris, who is 191cm, the other four are all taller than two meters.

Sacrificing the big center in exchange for the mobility of the team, this Jazz team had a faster offensive rhythm than the Wolves at the beginning.

Fast is fast, but the offensive efficiency is not particularly high. After the first quarter, the Jazz made 30 of 13 shots and scored 27 points.

The Wolves were even more eye-catching. They only hit 28 goals in 6 shots and scored 15 points, digging a big hole.

This result was not because the Wolves players didn't want to win, but because they wanted to win too much, and they tried to be perfect every time they shot, but they fell into a pit.

This big hole was not filled until the end of the first half.

Li Yu is both a father and a mother, and he scored 20 points at the end of the half, just to keep the point difference from widening.

During the intermission, Ah Shuai called the players together and trained them with a gloomy face.

During working hours, Ah Shuai will not let the players ignore him. Encouragement is always needed for a good game, and criticism is indispensable for a bad game.

The reason why the Wolves can complete the transformation this season is not only because of Li Yu's arrival, but also revitalize the Wolves' offense.

On the other hand, it is because of the team discipline established by Ah Shuai.

The reason why a bad team is a bad team is not only because there are no superstar players in the team, but also because there is no execution ability.

On the court, he can do nothing but singles, he can't run tactics, he can't defend, can he win by PIGU?
After being severely criticized, the appearance of the generals of the Wolves team has changed. If it was the Huskies before, it is really the Timberwolves now.

In the second half, the team's offense was dominated by Li Yu. With his outside control, Love and Page went crazy inside.

Grabbing the board and the second attack, Love is full of presence, and the Jazz's dead four forwards can't even hug them.

The pitfalls in the first half were too big, and the Jazz are not the kind of team that is easy to collapse. After the third quarter, the point difference narrowed to less than 10 points.

But in the fourth quarter, the Wolves' youthful advantages gradually emerged, and they were still able to run and jump.

On the Jazz's side, their physical strength began to collapse. The offense relied on Meng, and the defense relied on gambling.

The Wolves scored 40 points in the fourth quarter and reversed the score in one fell swoop, 102:108, winning six consecutive victories.

With his all-round performance, Li Yu was elected the MVP of the game. In the best prediction of the month, he successfully overtook the Black Mamba and was temporarily in the leading position.

After defeating the Jazz, the Wolves felt very comfortable, waiting for the All-Star Weekend to come.

This season is a shortened season, and the intensive schedule has resulted in players who hardly have more than two days of rest. To be honest, everyone is very tired.

Before the All-Star voting, some players even advocated canceling this All-Star to give players enough rest time.

But for the fans, they waited for this once a year, and if it was cancelled, it would be a mess.

Due to the pressure of public opinion and consideration for the development of the league, David Stern insisted on holding this All-Star event despite all objections.

Of course, the player who appealed not to hold the All-Star, seeing that the All-Star voting channel opened as scheduled, did not announce his withdrawal from the voting.

Li Yu neither signed up for the slam dunk contest, nor participated in the three-point contest or skill challenge, and waited for the start of the rookie challenge.

The selection process of the Rookie Challenge, which was postponed before, will officially start at 2012:2 pm on February 22, [-], leaving enough suspense.

The second-year and first-year mixed together, and O'Neill and Barkley, respectively serving as the general manager for the draft, are the highlights of this Rookie Challenge.

In the studio that night, Sharks and Flying Pigs attended in costumes, preparing to select 10 players from the shortlist.

The 10 second-year rookies on the roster are: Blake Griffin (Los Angeles Clippers), John Wall (Washington Wizards), Jeremy Lin (New York Knicks)
The 10 first-year rookies are: Li Yu (Minnesota Timberwolves), Kyrie Irving (Cleveland Cavaliers), Kemba Walker (Charlotte Bobcats)
Shark, who loves to be funny, managed to control the atmosphere of the scene, until the audience almost cursed, and started to use his No. 1 lottery.

"Hey guys, I don't need to say much about the first choice, you also know who I will choose."

The big shark smiled, and then said: "I will use the No. 1 pick to select Lee from the Minnesota Timberwolves. My little brother, let's fall into the arms of Uncle Shaq."

The Sharks chose Li Yu, and the Flying Pigs were quick, and immediately decided on their No. 1 pick: Irving from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Seeing the first choice of the two, the audience smiled knowingly. Duke's duel between young and old, Li Yu and Barkley's grievances and enmity, this is a good look.

Shark's second choice did not choose the white monster that the audience expected, but chose Lin Shuhao, who has been in the limelight recently.

In the first two selections, two yellow-skinned guards were selected. The Sharks are trying to make trouble, but the audience likes this SAO operation very much.

Barkley originally thought that O'Neal would choose Griffin, but the opponent chose a thin guard instead of a powerful power forward. Naturally, he would not politely include White Warcraft in his account.

After picking two guards, O'Neal's next pick was an insider, DeMarcus Cousins ​​from the Kings.

Now it was Barkley's turn to do something, and he chose Li Yu's younger brother Ricky Rubio.

Then the big sharks selected: Paul George, Derek Williams, Greg Monroe, Landry Fields, Brandon Knight, Tristan Thompson, Kawhi Renner Germany.

And Barkley is: Kemba Walker, Markieff Morris, John Wall, Gordon Hayward, Marshan Brooks, Norris Cole, Evan Turner.

O'Neal's coaching staff: Don Adams, Steve Kerr.

Barkley's coaching staff: Maurice Cheeks, Mike Fratello
