Chapter 280 Little Nash: Want to Win

Before the game, in an interview with reporters, Rubio claimed that the Warriors are not the Warriors before. The team's state and the chemical reaction between the players are very good, and they can win more games in the second half.

However, as beautiful as the ideal is, the reality is as cruel. At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors trailed the Timberwolves by 10 points.

Seeing that his teammates were a little frustrated, Rubio quickly released them. The game was only in one quarter. After the Timberwolves took the lead, it was easy to wave, so the Warriors had a chance to comeback.

But in the second quarter, Li Yu led the team to a 12-0 run, which directly ended the game.

Ashuai saw that the Warriors were vulnerable, so he replaced the starting players and let the rotation players go up to exercise.

In the end, the game ended, and the Warriors were defeated by the Timberwolves at home.

Defeating the Warriors, the Timberwolves have won 11 consecutive victories, and the next away game against the Suns is of great significance, because if the Timberwolves can beat the Suns, they will achieve a record of 46 wins and 8 losses and lock in the playoffs in advance.

On the evening of February 2, the Wolves will come to the home of the Suns - the US Airways Center.

After sending Nash away, the Suns embarked on the road to rebuilding. So far this season, they have achieved 18 wins and 9 losses.

The big reason is that Nash Dragic Jr. played the best performance in his career, averaging 20+ per game, and some "shouldn't win" games were gnawed down by him abruptly.

The Suns management is naturally very dissatisfied with this result, but they can't tell Dragic that you don't want to win.

They thought about sending Dragic away, and the latter also agreed to break up, but the team put him on the trading market, and the offer received could not satisfy the appetite of the management, so until the end of the trading day, Dragic Odd is still in the Suns camp.

"The Timberwolves have had a very strong season this season. They have won 11 consecutive victories since February, so we just have to do our best in this game."

The head coach of the Suns, Lindsay Hunter, was very euphemistic about lying down and losing.

The players of the Suns had mixed reactions when they heard what the head coach said.

For the vast majority of players, winning or losing this game is of little significance. Anyway, the team cannot make the playoffs and must be rebuilt.

They play in the Suns, more to play brilliant data, so that they can get a satisfactory contract next season.

Others don't care about winning or losing, Dragic cares, he is the most eager person in the Suns to win this game.He is a talented backcourt player, and he has his own halo when he enters the league. When he meets an opponent like the big devil, he naturally wants to compete.

The Suns are a rebuilding team, and there are very few opportunities to broadcast live in the United States. The game against the Wolves did not receive too much attention, and not many people came to watch the game, and there were many empty seats in the arena.

The mood of the audience was not high, and the DJ tried various tricks to enhance the atmosphere, but the effect was not good.

The warm-up is over, and the starting players of the two teams enter the field.

Minnesota starting lineup: Lillard, Li Yu, big brother-in-law, Love, McGee.

Suns starters: Dragic, Shoe King Tucker, Dudley, Luis Scola, Marcin Gortat.

It was finally not Love's jump ball. Lillard was ready to catch the ball. Big McGee lived up to expectations and overwhelmed Gortat to jump to the initiative for the Timberwolves.

Lillard advanced with the ball, dribbled it beyond the three-point line on the left wing, and observed the position of his teammates. Dragic stepped forward to harass him. The former did not want to tangle with the defender and was about to pass the ball to the big devil. The short and strong man on the opposite side locked it.

Jeff Green was entangled with Dudley, and the Timberwolves had no chance on the outside, so Lillard chose to go it alone.

Crossed over the defender, rushed two steps inside, hit the ground and passed the ball to Love.

Finally returning to the 4th position that he has been thinking about, Love naturally wanted to perform well, played a trick to sway Scola, shot from close range, and scored two points.

2: 0.

"The inside players of the Timberwolves played very aggressively as soon as they came up."

The on-site commentator analyzed it and said in surprise: "The big devil didn't participate in the offensive round just now. This is too abnormal."

"He was locked by Dragic, isn't it normal that he didn't participate in the offense?"

"I don't agree with your statement. With Tucker's defense, it is impossible to completely restrict the big devil."

The Suns attacked, Dragic advanced with the ball, used his experience to get rid of Lillard, rushed into the three-point line, and caught a glimpse of the big devil defending him from the corner of his eye.

He thought to himself: Well done.

The center of gravity of the body is lowered, and the whole person is like a light swallow, flying towards the defender.

His first step is very fast, and his basic skills are solid. When he breaks through, he is steady and ruthless, and it is difficult to be guarded.

In previous games, he used this trick to teach his opponents a lot, but this time he miscalculated, and the defender was like an insurmountable mountain in front of him.

The first attempt to break through failed. Dragic didn't have to pass the opponent with a straight head. Instead, he made a fake shot and sent the basketball to Gortat.

The ball was given very comfortably, and Gortat took the ball and took a step forward to knock McGee away, soaring into the air and scoring a dunk.

2: 2.

The Wolves attacked, and Li Yu crossed the half court and asked Lillard for the ball. Lillard threw the ball directly without any hesitation.

Tucker, who is physically strong, saw the big devil holding the ball, and immediately defended it.

The goal Tucker set for himself was to see the big devil die and prove his defensive ability to the outside world.

It's just that Li Yu can shoot, pass and rush, Tucker feels a little bald, and doesn't know how to limit the opponent's points.

When he saw the ball holder beckoning his teammates to pull away, his eyes lit up, and the opponent chose to play singles, which was exactly what he wanted.

Tucker's thick legs are slightly bent, blocking the ball holder like a rock, and it is bound to block the latter here.

Bang, bang, bang!Li Yu continuously dribbled the ball under his crotch, and made a large swing to distract the defenders, and seized the opportunity to suddenly activate the lost step.

brush!With just one step, he broke through the defense on the opposite side.

Tucker only felt a figure flash in front of his eyes, and his body failed to respond in time. By the time his body received the instructions from his brain, the ball holder had already reached the paint area.

Facing Scott who came up to defend him, Li Yu dribbled the ball behind his back and changed hands, and made a breakthrough from the left. Seeing his opponent being swayed, he immediately pulled the basketball back, and jumped into the air with both legs. Arm hanging basket heavy buckle!
Tucker looked bewildered, yes. The opponent is too fast, and he can't guard against it at all.

"really fast"

The on-site commentator couldn't find the right words to describe Li Yu's performance just now.

Hiss, the audience gasped, the ticket was worth it.
