308 Announcement of Return
In the next few games, the Timberwolves won and lost, and Xu Hao's performance was also good and bad. It can be seen that he will still struggle in his new role for a while. The match against the Knicks is just a super-level performance played by Fu Zhixin .

However, Xu Hao has to go to Northwest Hospital for reexamination every few days, and McHale has been checking the condition of his ankle through Torik.According to Gray, Xu Hao's injury has almost healed, and he can tentatively make some large-scale changes of direction and dunks.As long as the previous situation no longer occurs, the possibility of injury recurrence is very small.

Xu Hao was still convinced by Gray's diagnosis, which made him very happy.However, he still needs to overcome the hurdle in his heart. If he can't get rid of his inner demons, it will be difficult for him to exert his full power even if he is made of steel and iron.

Of course, Xu Hao will not try it directly in the game rashly, he is going to try it on the training ground now.Sessions, who was facing him at the beginning, also subconsciously reduced his physical confrontation, but was scolded bloody by McHale, and had to use his breastfeeding strength to fight against Xu Hao, trying his best to stop his attack. Breakthrough, and even fouled.

Xu Hao is happy instead of angry. For him, this kind of defensive intensity is suitable. He can't play off the ball forever and rely on the cover of his teammates to shoot open three-pointers.Sessions' defensive ability is mediocre, but he can still see it under McHale's order. If he can't even break through with such a little defensive strength, how can he find his state in the game?

During this period, Xu Ansheng and Xue Yong often called Xu Hao overseas to discuss how to overcome the psychological impact of the injury.One of them is an old fan who has been watching football for many years, and the other is an experienced retired player. He has seen countless stars who have suffered from injuries, and they can also give Xu Hao a lot of useful suggestions.But their thoughts boiled down to three words - don't be cowardly, as if you have never been injured, you can play a good performance.

Xu Hao was a little dumbfounded, could this be considered a suggestion?After all, he has to think about his career, and Dr. Gray only said that the possibility of recurrence is very small, but it is not close to zero, which also makes him keep a cautious attitude at all times.However, Xu Hao still feels that he can be bolder, and his performance on the training ground is enough to explain a lot of problems.

Seeing that the regular season has entered the final stage, Xu Hao felt that he had to find his best form quickly. Now that the Timberwolves were still half a game behind, he didn't want the team to be blocked out of the top eight with such a small gap.

However, at this time, the Timberwolves will face another tough battle, and they also want to compete with them for the eighth sun in the West.The current record of the Suns is only 1 game behind the Timberwolves. That is to say, if they win this game, they will complete the overtake. This is obviously not what the entire Timberwolves team wants to see. Those who come.

But it is undeniable that the Suns' lineup is still very strong. Their backcourt is dominated by Nash and Carter, and the small forward is Hill, who was once known as Jordan's successor. The combination of Frye and Lopez Jr. is also an offensive A defense complements each other.Their only shortcoming is that the average age is too large, which is the root cause of the Suns' mediocre record this season.

Even so, the Suns are still not an easy opponent to deal with. After all, the two sides are now fighting for a place in the playoffs. Basically, it can be said that it is life and death, and no one will hold back.However, Xu Hao is eager to try this game. Nash's organizational ability is indeed top in the league, but his physical fitness is very average. When facing him, Xu Hao undoubtedly has a clear advantage.If he dare not break through the defense and hit the basket under such circumstances, Xu Hao can choose the dog leash.

This game is still the home of the Timberwolves. The local fans in Minnesota also know that this is a key game related to whether the team can make the playoffs. The tickets have been snapped up long ago, and the price on the black market has doubled. Everyone wants to be able to go to the Target Center to cheer on the home team, watch them win the game, and take the initiative in the battle for positions.

But what the Timberwolves fans didn't expect was that from the home team's first offensive round, Xu Hao, who would only dodge three-pointers in every game before, was like a bloody shot. After the inside line, he leaned against Lopez under the basket and made a layup.Although it was not a slam dunk, it was also Xu Hao's first breakthrough score since his comeback.

In the following time, the home fans seemed to see the youthful and invincible Timberwolves team that was galloping around at the beginning of the season again.Under Xu Hao's command, the players performed their duties and their movements were smooth and smooth. Everyone was able to easily find opportunities to take action.But none of them were greedy for credit. Instead, they all selflessly passed the ball to teammates in better positions.

Nash, who was facing Xu Hao, also had to admit that this young Chinese kid in front of him has the potential to become one of the strongest commanders of the new generation. Coupled with his amazing three-point shooting, There's every chance he'll be on the MVP leaderboard and possibly even be inducted into the Hall of Fame.Nash has always been full of confidence in himself, but facing Xu Haohe at this moment, he couldn't help but feel that the waves behind the Yangtze River are ahead of the waves ahead. He, the former two-time regular season MVP, couldn't get the slightest advantage in front of Xu Hao.

Originally, the Suns' lineup was relatively old. After being rushed by the Timberwolves, they could only be in a passive position.In the first quarter, under the leadership of Xu Hao, the Timberwolves scored 35 points, while the Suns, who are also known for their offense, only scored 27 points. This was because Nash hit a mid-range shot at the buzzer. It's a double-digit difference.

But the Timberwolves obviously didn't intend to respect the old and love the young. They continued to advance in the second quarter and had already achieved a 13-point lead at the end of the half.Although Frye hit consecutive three-pointers at the start of the second half to narrow the point difference to single digits, Xu Hao quickly stood up and confronted him, and at the same time let Brewer personally interfere with Frye, directly suppressing the momentum of the Suns. .In the end, the Timberwolves beat the Suns 111 to 91 at home and successfully squeezed into the top eight.

Of course, the most important thing for the Timberwolves is Xu Hao's recovery.In this game, McHale did not deliberately suppress his playing time and gave him 32 minutes. Xu Hao posted a score of 27 points, 7 rebounds and 13 assists, and also made many sudden attempts to the basket during the game. Scored the next score and even contributed a tomahawk dunk, which aroused cheers from the audience.

Everything shows that the super guard who helped the Timberwolves attack the city at the beginning of that season is back!
