Chapter 42 Performance
Jaric's party did not affect the feel of the Golden State Warriors, but the Timberwolves seemed to be still immersed in Jaric's party.

98 is better than 111
The Timberwolves lost a full 13 points!
Whitman was furious in the locker room after the game. He severely criticized Jefferson, McCants and others who performed poorly in this game, and of course, including Zheng Ke.

In this game, three of the Warriors scored 20 points, namely Al Harrington 25, Monta Ellis 24 and Stephen Jackson 20 points. In addition, the Warriors team engine Baron David Si scored 18 points and 10 assists, and Biedrins, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, scored 15 rebounds.

On the Timberwolves side, the highest scorer in the game was Brewer, who came off the bench. Brewer scored 13 of 10 and scored 26 points, justifying his No. [-] pick.As for the performance of the others, they were all poor. It seemed that the Timberwolves had gotten to know each other the night before, and the Timberwolves couldn't stop defending. A breakthrough sprained his knee, which led to him leaving the field for treatment. The doctor said he had to rest for two weeks, which made Whitman even more angry.
Whitman therefore announced that the team will go directly to Indiana tomorrow in order to adapt to the climate there and better face the game against the Pacers the day after tomorrow.
This made Zheng Ke very angry, but Zheng Ke promised Zeng Xiaojun to attend his "Taste of China" dinner tomorrow night!In desperation, Zheng Ke had no choice but to call Zeng Xiaojun, the owner of the Chinese restaurant, and explain the situation. Fortunately, Zeng Xiaojun is also a sensible person, and he did not blame Zheng Ke, but expressed regret
Zheng Ke is also very helpless!How he wanted to have another delicious Chinese meal!
However, this is the case in the NBA. Many things that cannot be done can be done without entering the major league. Many things that can be easily done cannot be done after entering the major league.
The Pacers fell into a slump after the incident at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Reggie Miller, the soul of the team, chose to retire after the end of the 05 season. The team sent away "The Beast" Artest. Scoring small forward Danny Granger is the core, although there are still a group of strong players, but there is no hope of winning the championship
Zheng Ke did not perform well in the last game against the Warriors. He played 24 minutes and only scored 4 points and 1 rebounds on 3 of 3 shots. He also failed to strangle Captain Jack in defense. In this game, he was put on the bench , it was not Gomez who played instead of him, but Anthony Walker who just returned from injury yesterday!
There is no way around this. Walker's scoring ability is stronger than Zheng Ke, and the team lacks the most stable three-pointer McCants, so Walker will start instead of Zheng Ke, and Gomez will start instead of McCants. I hope this change Can play a certain effect.

But the facts were far from Whitman's idea. The main force in the first quarter was completely shot by the Pacers. The Pacers led the Timberwolves by a huge 40-20 point difference.

This time Zheng Ke played the role of the savior. After coming off the bench in the second quarter, he made continuous contributions on the defensive end. O'Neal's singles. Zheng Ke led a group of bench gangsters to blow up the Pacers' benches. The Pacers beat the Pacers with an 11-0 spurt and called a timeout. Marquis Daniels wanted to cry. It's fun, why is the substitute working so hard?
Perhaps it was Zheng Ke's performance that stimulated the generals of the Timberwolves. After the second quarter, the Timberwolves began to chase points again and again, and Anthony Walker fired again and again!In the second half of the second quarter, he threw 3 scoring goals in a row, and he seemed to have found the demeanor of the boy back then!The Timberwolves played 40-15 in the second quarter and even led 60-55 at halftime!

After the start of the second half, Walker's performance was still eye-catching. Jefferson, Telfair, and Gomez also started to go crazy. In this way, Zheng Ke, who led the counterattack frenzy in the first half of the second quarter, had no playing time and was pushed to the bench. superior!

Telfair seems to be paying tribute to his old man, Jamal Tinsley, the main point guard of the Pacers. The two of them come and go to show the skills they have learned in the NBA.These two are both born in street balls, and both have excellent ball-handling skills. Compared with Tinsley, who is good at being hit, Telfair is better at making breakthroughs with his flexibility and speed, and his figure is slightly bloated. Tinsley obviously can't guard against a small defender like Telfair.
The Timberwolves won the game 131 to 118!

Timberwolves star Jefferson looked quiet, but scored 29 points and 13 rebounds. Telfair exploded with 18 of 11, scored 5 points with 5 of 27 free throws, and Walker made 6 three-pointers. Gomez scored 23 points, Gomez scored 16 points, Smith 12 points, Brewer 12 points, Zheng Ke 10 points, Jaric 2 points, seven people in the team scored in double figures!
For the Pacers, Granger did not perform well, with only 14 points. The best performer was Mike Dunleavy, who played 38 minutes and scored 30 points, which was also the highest score in the game.

After this battle, the Timberwolves' record surpassed that of the Los Angeles Clippers and reached No.12 in the West. This is exciting news. From No.12 to No.[-], as long as there are more than four opponents, the Timberwolves team can't help but celebrate!

But the good times didn’t last long. On the second day, the team challenged the New Orleans Hornets, who are temporarily No. [-] in the West, back-to-back. When they met the queen bee Paul, Telfair’s sense of satisfaction from the Pacers was shattered. Being behind from the start until the end of the game didn't even give the Hornets a decent counterattack.
Jefferson was lost in the defense of West and Chandler, unable to extricate himself, unable to save himself. Walker also lost the magic of yesterday. The audience was actually 7 of 1 three-pointers. The only normal Zheng Ke Not enough offensive power
In the second half, Whitman made a change. Zheng Ke defended Paul. Paul deserves to be one of the players with the highest basketball quotient in the NBA. Weak point, striker defense!After Peja Skotovic threw consecutive three-pointers, Whitman was completely helpless.
In the end, the Timberwolves lost to New Orleans by a huge score of 76 to 110.
Zheng Ke lost the game, but the Chinese media was crazy. They had happy smiles on their faces. After the game, Zheng Ke found a reporter he was familiar with, asked the reason, and then found out.

那边雄鹿战，密尔沃基雄鹿主场以103－99战胜夏洛特山猫，易建联出场42分33秒，状态神勇17投14中（前12投12中），罚球1罚1中，得到个人职业生涯最高的29分和10个篮板，另外还有3次助攻、2次失误、3次抢断、1次封盖和3次犯规。

This made Zheng Ke feel happy for Yi Jianlian from the bottom of his heart. The reporter is also a witty person. After thinking about it, he asked Zheng Ke what he thought of Yi Jianlian's new career high. Yi Jianlian praised and wished him better and better.

But in fact, although Zheng Ke said so, he still hopes that his performance can attract the attention of others, and even more hope that his performance can attract the attention of Chinese people. Now Yi Jianlian's performance is getting better and better compared with the beginning of the season, and his own However, his recent performance has been weak. In the last 4 games, he can only contribute 6.5 points and 1.7 rebounds. Even his ranking in the rookie list has dropped to No.10.
Zheng Ke looked up to the sky and sighed: Hey~~ What should I do.
