Chapter 324
Being beaten by GDP together made the Timberwolves very unhappy, because their efforts on the defensive end were in vain.

In this game, Duncan scored 27 points, 18 rebounds and 4 blocks, while Parker scored 22 points and 7 assists. The team's highest 5 points, but also 29 steals.It can be said that GDP used this game to prove that they are still the top team in the league. The ruthless years have not weakened their strength. No matter from any point of view, they are one of the best trio in NBA history.

McHale also knew that the players were not feeling well, so after returning to Minneapolis, he did not arrange training immediately, but gathered everyone together and held a team meeting to summarize and think about the fifth game .

At the end of the meeting, McHale stood up, put his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, looked around all the players, and said in a deep voice: "I know you are very guilty now, and you are very disappointed with yourself, because we didn't make it in the first place." In the fifth game, the Spurs were directly sent home for fishing, and they were severely educated by GDP. But I still have full confidence in you, and then we will play our home game. Before that, we won two consecutive home games , this time will be no exception!"

"Of course, you don't have to put too much pressure on us. After all, we are not the ones who are forced to the edge of the cliff. I just hope that everyone will stick to our previous style in the sixth game, so that we can kill the opponent. Don't you want to have a black eight? ?”

"Think!" Everyone became excited. The black eight is definitely an honor for them. It has only happened 3 times in NBA history. It is conceivable how rare it is.The reason is simple. There is a big gap between the eighth and the first. The first three black eights were either due to the sudden explosion of stars or pure style restraint. The Timberwolves can become the fourth team.

If they can beat the Spurs in the next game, they will create their own history. Although it is difficult for them to go further on this basis this season, they can at least leave their names in NBA history.

For the Timberwolves' loss in the away game, the Minnesota fans didn't take it seriously at all. Their confidence in the team had already exploded, so this time in order to "welcome" the Spurs, they once again filled the entire target center.Many old fans are very excited. This is something that Garnett has never done when leading the team, and it is a great honor.

The Spurs players who walked into the stadium looked serious, their ears were full of boos and curses from the home fans, which made their heads buzzing, and they had to get together and shout loudly if they wanted to talk to their teammates. frowned.

Popovich originally wanted to win the game in one go, and then drag the series into the tiebreaker, but now it seems that it is difficult to achieve this goal. It depends on the GDP combination tonight.

In stark contrast to them, the Timberwolves players who have already been beaten to death are vicious, as if they want to tear each other into pieces, which is very appropriate for their team name.McHale even had to calm everyone in the locker room as much as possible, so as not to get too many personal fouls due to being too active during the game, which would not be worth the candle.

The Spurs still want to defeat the Timberwolves with the pattern of the last game. The ball is basically concentrated in the hands of the GDP trio, but they quickly discovered that the Timberwolves have also made changes on the basis of retaining a fast offense and defense.

If the Timberwolves were all soldiers before, then most of their ball rights are now concentrated in the hands of Xu Hao and Love, and the others only need to be prepared to catch and shoot from the outside.In this game, Xu Hao really looked like the core of the team. He either held the ball and forcibly broke through, or played a pick-and-roll with Love. He could always use various methods to tear through the Spurs' defense and go directly to the basket. Go down and one-on-one with Duncan, and often get something.

Duncan couldn't understand it. You must know that although Xu Hao's performance in the previous few games was very good, most of the time he looked more like a commander, but now he looks like a fierce general who charges into the battle.However, Xu Hao returned fiercely, and his mind was still clear. His continuous scoring was just to reduce the pressure on his teammates on the offensive end.

In the first quarter, Xu Hao and Love scored 27 points together. You must know that the team only scored 36 points. At the same time, Xu Hao also sent 3 assists, allowing his teammates to hit 3 three-pointers. Ellington has two and Brewer has one.The Spurs were completely stunned. Although they also scored 2 points, they always felt that their momentum had been suppressed.

It was still the opponent who took the lead in the first quarter, but Popovich couldn't blame his players. They really did their best.Especially GDP, they scored 30 points together in the first quarter, the key is that other people didn't contribute much!

The most important point for the Spurs is that they are helpless against Xu Hao tonight. Parker, Ginobili and Blair all tried to go to single-handed defense, but in the end they were constantly broken by the opponent and made layups. This is a heavy blow to the Spurs players .

In the second quarter, Love died under Duncan's strong defense, but Xu Hao still raged on the perimeter, scoring 15 points in a single quarter, helping the Timberwolves lead 66-57 at halftime.His super long three-pointer made the Spurs at a loss. Once they stepped forward to double-team, it was tantamount to letting others score. If you don’t go up, Xu Hao will teach you how to be a man with shooting.

His three-point shooting with the ball is simply unsolvable for the Spurs. Popovich can't think of any good way to restrict Xu Hao from shooting one step away from the three-point line. The most terrible thing is that his shooting percentage is still low. There was no significant decline as a result.

可以说徐浩完全是凭一己之力帮森林狼守住了这场比赛的胜利。在马刺球员绝望的眼神当中，他全场三分球16投9中，狂轰37分、6个篮板和12次助攻，同时还有3次抢断和2次封盖，让森林狼以108比97击败马刺，大比分4比2完成黑八。

This is what McHale and Xu Hao think, don't you want to play superstar basketball?We also come to play superstar basketball, it depends on who is better!Xu Hao obviously lived up to the trust of his coach and teammates, and carried the team's offense by himself.

When the final whistle sounded, the Spurs players fell to their knees helplessly, and Shi Buddha, who had always been paralyzed, even shed painful tears. They reluctantly became the background board for the Timberwolves to advance. This is also the fourth time in NBA history Black eight miracles.At this time, there were deafening cheers in the Target Center, and the fans paid tribute to their heroes in the most fanatical way. For them, there is nothing more memorable than defeating the Spurs with a gram!
