NBA: This flower path is a bit strong

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

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

But if he averaged 15 points and 7 assists per game, he would be a solid main player if he was in a strong team, but if he was in a team that did not even make the playoffs, such as the Timberwolves, he would still have a long way to go to get full media exposure.

"If you say, increase the number of shots!"

Marbury looked at his friend KG, and then at his teammate Tom Gugliotta, who had taken 11 shots in the first half of the game.

It was a coincidence that the highest scorer in the Timberwolves this season was not KG, who averaged 17 points per game, but Tom Gugliotta, the sixth pick in 1992, who averaged 20.6 points per game.

And right now, there is a rising "lone wolf" who is about to get involved in the number of 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 ball when he was sure, and learned from his big brother KG when he was not sure.

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

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

Apart from anything else, KG's ability to eat cakes has been underestimated.

With Marbury's flash of inspiration, the Timberwolves seemed to be resurrected.

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

Of course, such unexpected tactics will inevitably lead to mistakes, but Marbury's mistakes are not that many. After all, it's Marbury who blames his teammates for their mistakes!

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

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

This has two benefits:

First, it activates the team's defense system. This group of Minnesota wolves are professionally trained and are very fast in switching defenses, especially KG.

Don't forget that the Wolf King, who moves at an amazing speed, is known as a single-player defense, but 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 offender a big cap.

Second, it is a mismatch. Although KG's mid-range jump shot hit rate this season is not as high as 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 jump shot!

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

Although KG's mismatched jump shot tactic is very "simple"! It's just a fake shot, and then the shot, but the effect is good. As long as Hanamichi is slightly delayed, giving KG a chance to mismatch or space to shoot, he really dares to shoot for you.

In the fourth quarter, KG was completely crazy. As a defensive gate, he turned into a Pixiu who could only go in and not out. When Hanamichi finally got rid of Doug West's mismatched defense and rushed to help defend KG, the latter originally faked a shot, suddenly shook the ball, then dribbled and broke through for a layup, and made a "2+1" foul on Ben.

This ball can't really be blamed on Ben. Ben's reaction speed is fast enough. He made up his mind to foul in advance the moment KG made a layup, but he couldn't stand the "dimensionality reduction attack"!

This also touched the heart of Ben. As the substitute master, center, Oakley, Ben was 10+cm shorter than KG, the power forward. Ben could guarantee this with his afro.

So KG still succeeded in the long-handed layup after being fouled, and with the free throw, the score between the two teams was narrowed to 4 points.

The new wolf king of Minnesota is on fire!

Raptors head coach Deng quickly called a timeout, avoiding the sharp edge while changing tactics.

That's right, this coach Deng believes in "take it"!

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

Maybe one day when the "only mother is good in the world" tactic in the CBA can win the championship for the team, coach Deng dares to come to the flower garden to steal the skills!

However, the most urgent task at the moment is to break the wolves' iron-clad defense.Tactics.

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

At the critical moment, Old Deng~Tyleren possessed:

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

"In a long season, even athletes of Michael Jordan's level will always fall into a state of fatigue at some stages and get tired."

"In this game, we haven't given up yet. Even if we have to admit defeat, I hope to admit defeat in the game against the Chicago Bulls on the 8th of next month!"

"Some things may be said too early, but Flower, lead your team to win!"

Coach Old Deng said that I will drink this bowl of chicken soup first, you can do whatever you want.

As for whether the game will win or not, you can decide for yourself!

Hua Dao said: It's all said to this point, can I still say I won't fight hard?

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

Next is the time for Hua Dao to break the ice and score as the team leader.

Das, a good friend, has long been accustomed to it. He has no objection to Hua Dao being the leader. After all, whoever is the leader is the leader, why not find a leader who can treat me to dumplings? Besides, we are all acquaintances, what is yours and mine, let's discuss it!

So on the court, he was very willing to pass the ball to Hua Dao who was facing the basket. When others saw that Das had no objection, they had even less objection, and they all followed the signal of Hua Dao's gestures and opened up opportunities for him to play singles.

So far, the Raptors, who have won 13 consecutive games at the beginning of this season, have finally competed for the team's [Dragon King]. This is also the first [Dragon King] of the Raptors, the red-haired Hua Dao from the flower-growing family, nicknamed [Little Overlord].

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.
