Junior Basketball says

Chapter 393 is behind

Losing a home game is not a small blow to the Timberwolves, and things that make them even more angry are yet to come.On the second day after the game ended, many media wrote articles analyzing the direction of the finals, and there was no lack of sympathy for the Timberwolves between the lines.

In their view, if they hadn't met the Heat, the Timberwolves would have every chance to win this year's championship trophy, but now their luck doesn't look very good.That's right, although the Heat just equalized the big score, they still don't want to see the Timberwolves. No one denies the potential of this small market team, but want to win the championship?Let's wait a few seasons first!

Even the local media in Minnesota is full of grief. If the Timberwolves hold two home games in a row, they will still believe that these wolf cubs have a chance to win the championship, but who let them meet James who is full of firepower?The Timberwolves' luck is really bad!Poor thing, they should have gone to Miami with a 2-0 score...

Such an argument made Xu Hao very uncomfortable.It is right to be optimistic about the Heat. After all, they have the Big Three, and they are all at the peak of their careers. What about the Timberwolves?Their core trio may not reach the level of the Big Three!

But if you don't like it, you don't like it. Why should you pity us?Haven't the Heat ever lost when James was doing his best?Not necessarily?We also have our own dignity, and we will definitely continue to work hard for the championship!
Therefore, before boarding the plane, Xu Hao accepted the interview uncharacteristically. He said in a deep voice: "The Timberwolves don't need mercy. With our strength, we really can't crush the Heat, but it's not that we can't win the championship. Those who are not optimistic about us, go Just wait and see, we will tell you with practical actions that basketball is also round, and the difference in strength does not determine the final outcome."

Xu Hao's words made the Timberwolves fans unanimously applaud, they like such a player with personality and fighting spirit.However, many reporters still scoffed at Xu Hao's words, they would not believe that the Timberwolves could win the finals!

On the plane, McHale said to Xu Hao with a wry smile: "Chris, you really shouldn't have said that..."

Xu Hao snorted: "Then let them watch the Timberwolves joke? I believe we can win, and I will do what I say."

His attitude was tough, and McHale shook his head, not going to say anything more.After nearly three seasons of getting along, he also knows the character of his number one general.Although he usually looks very gentle, like every Chinese he has ever met, but there is a deep pride hidden in his bones, and he will not swallow his anger when he encounters doubts, but fights back fiercely.

However, what Xu Hao said in front of the camera was still very encouraging. At least it allowed his teammates to overcome the disappointment of being tied by the Heat, which is very good for the next game.For any team, the away game is very stressful.

Miami is a seaside city located in the southeastern United States. The sun, sand and bikini beauties here may be more famous than the Big Three.But the Timberwolves players turned a blind eye to all of this. After recuperating in the hotel room, they came to the training hall to start training. In their eyes, the championship ring is more attractive than the beach beauty.

After two days of rest and adjustments, the Timberwolves ushered in their third and first away game in the Finals.It's just that they didn't have the consciousness of playing away games. When they entered the field, they were all arrogant, as if this was the center of the target.

For the Timberwolves who came from afar, Miami fans showed them "noble indifference". To put it bluntly, they looked down on them.After all, the Heat's ancestors have also gone before, and the distance is not too far away: in 2006, Wade and O'Neal led the team to win the first championship in the history of the Heat.And they also have full confidence in the Big Three and do not think the Timberwolves are a threat.

Soon the Timberwolves players saw a truth: any player's combat power at his home court will be doubled.Although James was not as aggressive as the previous game, Wade and Bosh also continued to score in their own way.

That's right, Spoelstra has adjusted the team's starting lineup. He found that the Minnesota's starting inside line has a huge advantage in height. Not letting Bosh start is tantamount to giving the Timberwolves the initiative of the entire inside line.Now it seems that this adjustment is not bad, Bosh also has outside shooting ability, although it is not too accurate, but at least his shooting touch is not bad tonight.

As soon as the Timberwolves came up, they were stunned by the consecutive scoring of Wade and Bosh. It was not until two and a half minutes into the game that Xu Hao scored the first point with a breakthrough layup.Xu Hao also felt very helpless about this. He originally wanted to pass the ball to bring the touch of his teammates, and everyone formed a scoring wave together. He didn't expect that a few very good passes would be wasted directly.

But it's not enough for him to score alone. The Heat are not a weak offensive team.At 6 minutes and 35 seconds of the first quarter, the score was 18 to 10, and the Timberwolves were 8 points behind their opponent.As Wade broke through and hit a layup, the point difference between the two sides widened to double digits. His goal also brought thunderous applause and endless screams from the audience.

McHale quickly called a timeout. The Heat had already taken the lead, and it seemed that their scoring rhythm was good. If they didn't pause for a while to interrupt their scoring continuity, they didn't know what would happen.At the same time, he was not very satisfied with the performance of the players. Everyone seemed a little impatient, as if they wanted to hit the doubters in the face immediately, which was obviously not possible.

After all the players gathered around, McHale did not rush to take out the tactical board to draw tactics, but said loudly: "I know that all of you are very dissatisfied with the outside world's remarks, and you all hope to use your performance to fight back. But is this how you fight back? It’s because you are afraid that others will not ridicule you enough, so you take the initiative to send jokes, right?”

This completely ruthless remark made everyone bow their heads.McHale took a breath and continued: "Fast-paced basketball is what we are good at, but the Heat are not slow, so I ask you to try to choose the best shot opportunities on the court, and don't shoot casually. We can't afford to waste it, Kay." Vin and DeAndre will be under a lot of pressure."

In the end, McHale concluded: "I know that everyone is very young, which is our characteristic, but after several seasons of polishing, the boos of the home fans should not be considered disturbing to you. So in the following During the game, keep your mind steady, don't worry about the noise outside, and play our own style, we can win here!"
