NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

For the first time, Stephen Marbury truly realized how far he was from being a top point guard.

Of course, the top point guard does not refer to the 178cm guy on the opposite side.

However, with his average of 15 points and 7 assists per game, if he was in a strong team, he would definitely be a key player. But if he was in a team that didn't even make the playoffs, such as the Timberwolves, he would probably have a long way to go if he wanted to get full media exposure.

"If you want to increase the number of shots!"

Marbury looked at his good friend KG, and then looked at his teammate Tom Gugliotta, who had taken 11 shots halfway through the game.

Coincidentally, the highest scorer of the Timberwolves this season is not KG, who averages 17 points per game, but Tom Gugliotta, the sixth pick in 20.6, who averages 92 points per game.

And right now, there is a rising "lone wolf" who is about to get his hands on the ball and take more shots on the offensive end.

In the second half of the game, Marbury, who had made up his mind, played very smartly. He took the balls he was sure of, and learned from his big brother KG about the balls he was not sure of.

Inadvertently, the Timberwolves' tactics started from the outside and most of them ended from the outside.

There were a few unexpected passes, which were unexpected and were scored by the Timberwolves' inside players.

Apart from anything else, KG's ability to catch the ball has been underestimated.

Thanks to Marbury's inspiration, the Timberwolves seem to be on the verge of revival.

In the third quarter, the Timberwolves scored 24 points and the Raptors scored 17 points. The score difference between the two sides returned to double digits. Marbury scored 12 points in the third quarter and contributed 3 assists.

Of course, with such unexpected tactics, mistakes are bound to happen, but Marbury did not make that many mistakes. After all, I was the one who passed the buck to others and it was none of his business whatsoever when my teammates made mistakes!

With a 10-point gap, it seems that the Timberwolves still have a chance to fight back.

In the fourth quarter, Timberwolves head coach Darnell Walker issued a tactical order to play an off-ball pick-and-roll to create offensive opportunities for KG.

This has two benefits:

The first is to activate the team's defensive system. This group of Minnesota wolves have been professionally trained and are very fast in switching defenses, especially KG.

Don't forget that the Wolf King, who moves at an astonishing speed, is known for his one-on-one defense, but he has the ability to assist from the first position to the fifth position. If you are not careful, a Wolf King will jump out from behind the opposing player and give the invader a slam dunk.

The second is the mismatch of the names. Although KG's mid-range jumper hit rate this season is not as high as the 45.4% in his peak period, it has also reached a very stable data, averaging 4 mid-range shots per game, especially almost no one can block his jumper!

(KG is the player with the fewest blocked jump shots in the NBA, no doubt about it!)

Although KG's mismatch point-and-shoot tactic is very "simple"! It's just a fake shot, and then the shot, but the effect is good. As long as the flower path is slightly delayed, giving KG a mismatch opportunity or shooting space, he really dares to shoot for you.

KG went completely crazy in the fourth quarter. As a defensive gate, he turned into a Pixiu, only able to go in and not out. Hanamichi finally got rid of Doug West's mismatched defense and rushed to assist KG. The latter originally faked a shot, but suddenly shook the ball, then dribbled for a layup and called a "2+1" foul on Ben.

You really can't blame Ben for this ball. Ben's reaction speed was fast enough. He decided to foul in advance the moment KG made the layup, but he couldn't withstand the "dimensionality reduction attack"!

This also touches on Ben's pain point. As the substitute, center, and Oakley, Ben is 10+cm shorter than KG, the power forward. Ben can guarantee this with his afro.

So KG still succeeded in making a layup with his long hands after being fouled, and with the free throw, the score between the two teams was suddenly narrowed to 4 points.

Minnesota's new wolf king is on fire!

The Raptors' head coach, Dennis, quickly called a timeout, avoiding the opponent's attack while also changing tactics.

That’s right, this old coach Deng believes in the “take-it-as-it-is” approach!

The prototype of the Mosaic team's one-star-four-shooting tactic is useful, so he dares to study it and try it out; the off-ball pick-and-roll tactic in front of him is useful, so Old Deng can come up with an off-ball assist defense pick-and-roll tactic for the Raptors in the future.

Maybe one day, the "Only Mom is Good in the World" tactics in CBA can win the championship for the team, and Coach Deng will dare to come to the flower-growing family to learn from them!

However, the most urgent task at the moment is to break the Wolves' iron-clad pick-and-roll tactics.

In the first 4 minutes of the fourth quarter, the Raptors only scored 2 points.

At the critical moment, Lao Deng~Tailulun was possessed:

"Flower, how far our Raptors can go this season depends on you at the critical moment!"

"In a long season, even athletes of Michael Jordan's level will always get tired at some stage and feel exhausted."

"It's not the time for us to give up this game. Even if we have to admit defeat, I hope it will be in the game against the Chicago Bulls on the 8th of next month!"

"It may be too early to say some things, but Flower, lead your team to victory!"

Coach Lao Deng said, "I'll drink this bowl of chicken soup first, you can do whatever you want."

As for whether you win the game or not, it’s up to you!

Hua Dao said: Now that things have come to this, how can I not fight hard?

Hanamichi didn't know how long he had played so far, but for the rest of the time, he could only say sorry to Puopeye Jones, the substitute player in his position, saying that today is another day when you can't get a double-double!

Next, it is time for Hanamichi, as the team leader, to break the ice and score.

My good friend Dasi has already gotten used to it, and has no objection to Huadao being the boss. After all, it doesn't matter who is the boss, so why not find a boss who can treat me to a meal of dumplings? Besides, we are all acquaintances, so what's yours and what's mine, just discuss it!

So he readily passed the ball to Hanamichi who was facing away from the basket. When the others saw that Das had no objection, they all followed the signal given by Hanamichi's hand gestures and gave him the opportunity to play one-on-one.

At this point, the Raptors, who have won 13 consecutive games at the start of this season, have finally selected the team's "Dragon King", who can be regarded as the Raptors' first "Dragon King", a red-haired man from a flower-growing family, nicknamed "Little Overlord" Hanamichi.

As for what happens next, whether the position of the Dragon King can be secured depends on a one-on-one fight with the new Wolf King.
