Chapter 97
For the Kings, Hawes missed a 3-pointer, and Love received another backcourt rebound!

But for the Timberwolves, Love made a mistake in passing the ball...

The two teams played two more rounds, and neither scored.Soon, there was a timeout on the sidelines, which was called by the Kings.

The timeout ended and personnel adjustments were made on both sides.For the Kings, the second team, which performed well in the first half, made its debut again.When Bobby Jackson and other players played, it sparked a warm welcome from the home fans.

"Sacramento's No. 2 team received a hero's welcome!" Marv Albert laughed.

Mark Jackson said: "The fans like whoever plays well. It's not difficult to understand!"

The game continues.

Bobby Jackson dribbled the ball and gave it to Bobby Brown who came out.

Bobby Brown rushed to the basket, made a mistake in the crowd, and was intercepted by Love!

Love wanted to make a long pass to find his teammate Cardinal, who was going down the field quickly, but was turned back by Xie Kai!

Xie Kai didn't stop after stealing the ball, he directly held the ball to kill, and then split the top of the arc to Bobby Jackson.

Bobby Jackson feinted and cut in the middle, and the hit was given to Xie Kai who made a 45-degree air cut on the right.

Xie Kai made an empty cut to the basket, faced Love, started directly, licked the basket with his right hand-hit!
"Beautiful teamwork!" The groom Albert praised.

The fans at the scene saw the second team, which performed well in the first half, show off their power again, and the cheers came again.

The point difference was pulled to 8 points!
For the Timberwolves, McCants missed a jumper with an emergency stop-Moore accepted the rebound and handed it to Bobby Jackson to push back.

Bobby Jackson slowed down, didn't rush to counterattack, and played steadily.Of course he knew that it would be more effective to push the fast break just now, and it is likely to cause more frontcourt and less play, but he is also old, and his body cannot withstand running back and forth like this.

For the Kings, Xie Kai got a chance from the bottom corner and shot a 3-pointer-this time it's gone!

But Jason Thompson slapped the ball out, and Bobby Jackson at the top of the arc got the ball.

"Jason is a very smart rookie. He knows that he is not as good as Kevin in positioning and strength. It is difficult to grab offensive rebounds, so he changed his strategy and made full use of his advantage of height and speed. He should grab the rebound. It can also help the team get 2 chances to attack!" Mafu Albert praised.

Mark Jackson also agreed: "So rookies must be flexible and have team spirit. You can't stop doing it just because the rebounds are not counted as your own data. Jason has done a good job. exemplary role."

Bobby Jackson and Jason Thompson started high-position pick-and-rolls, bullying Love's flaws in defending pick-and-rolls, and after attracting Cardinal's help defense, Xie Kai split the bottom corner.

Xie Kai got an open chance, this time he didn't let the opportunity slip away from him, and made a steady 3-pointer, opening the point difference to 11 points!
This is Xie Kai's third 3-pointer in this game. He is in very good condition!

The sound waves at the scene were one after another, and the cheers of the fans completely drowned out the voice of the Timberwolves coach on the sidelines.

The Timberwolves request a timeout!Even if coach Kevin McHale felt sorry for the timeout, there was nothing he could do. Damn it, the opponent is on the rise again.In an away game, it is very dangerous for the opponent to make a move, and this time has reached the end of the third quarter. At this time, it is easy for the opponent to let go.Once the score and momentum are suppressed by the opponent, it will become quite difficult to make a comeback in the final quarter.

"Mark, what do you think Minnesota should do next to turn the situation around?" Mav Albert asked.

Mark Jackson pondered for a moment, and then replied: "It's very difficult to do. Their biggest problem is defense. They can't prevent the opponent's inside attack, and because of the collapse of the inside defense, once they shrink, the outside defense will also fail. But their The problem of interior defense is a problem of lineup configuration, and it cannot be changed by tactics. Therefore, unless they play against the sky on the offensive end, I think the possibility that they want to win this game in the away game is already very small.”

Timberwolves coach Kevin McHale forced Yang with a bitter face, and Al Jefferson, the core of the team sitting on the bench, also lost and lost, so angry that he wanted to hit someone.But there is no way, this is an away game, if he speaks a little too aggressively, it may even trigger the siege of the fans, so he can only choose to sulk.

Back from the timeout, the Timberwolves picked up the tempo and needed to score because they were behind.However, the more impatient they were, the more passive they were. Their mistakes increased, but their offensive efficiency did not increase.

At the end of the third quarter, the Timberwolves were already 3 points behind their opponents.

After being beaten 6-0 by the Kings at the beginning of the final quarter, the Timberwolves' timeout did not help, and the game quickly entered garbage time.

In the end, the Kings slaughtered the Timberwolves with a huge advantage of 27 points at home and gave their opponents a 10-game losing streak!

Kings fans finally had the joy of watching a big home win that vented all their pent-up grievances.

谢开本场比赛出战22分钟，10投7中，其中3分球5投3中，罚球6罚5中，得到22分7个篮板9个助攻4个抢断2个盖帽，只出现了1次失误，表现非常高效。

9个助攻、4个抢断以及3个3分球分别刷新了谢开NBA常规赛职业生涯的新纪录（之前分别是7个、3个以及2个）。

The Kings ushered in a big victory after the coaching change, which also allowed new coach Kenny Knight to shine.No matter how scumbag the opponent is, what the outside world remembers is more about the fact that the team has a new look after the coaching change and wins the opponent.

The same new coach, Kevin McHale can memorize too much.Not only has the team ushered in a 10-game losing streak, but he also has no wins in the 5 games he coached.Being massacred by the Kings, which is also the last in the Western Conference, this kind of blow is really not small.

There is no way, if he does not want to be kicked out by the team, all he can do is to help the team win as soon as possible.

After the game, Xie Kai attended the press conference with teammate Bobby Jackson and the team's new coach Kenny Knight.

At the press conference, when a reporter asked Xie Kai whether he deliberately used his outstanding performance to satirize the former coach Reggie Tois, Xie Kai said: "Since I joined the NBA, as long as I play, I have never had a match-fixing problem." I'm a professional player, I can't and don't bother to do this. As long as I play, I will play seriously and help the team win. There are many reasons for the bad data before, not because I did it on purpose .Whether it's Coach Reggie Tois or Kenny Knight, I respect it!"

Xie Kai's answer received warm applause from the audience...
