The godfather of basketball started from conquering the NBA

The 2011-2012 season has just started, and Xu Xiao and his Timberwolves are already ready to go.

The Timberwolves lineup for the new season is even better than last year.

The generals Yao Ming and Reid have also returned from injury, and James Johnson, who was not stable in the locker room, was sent away to reduce any factors that are not conducive to the unity of the locker room.

The first game of the Timberwolves in the new season is to face the Celtics, a veteran team.

Because it is the first game, Xu Xiao hopes to find out the status of the players. After all, this offseason is longer than usual, and this season's schedule is relatively tight, so there are not many games for them. Find status.

But in the subsequent game, the team members also told Xu Xiao with actions that his worries were completely unnecessary.

After all, they have been playing in the WBA during the offseason, and their status is completely ok.

And like Bledsoe in the second grade, after a period of experience in the wba, he has made obvious progress when he comes back.

It can completely support the organization during Westbrook's absence.

In the first game, the Timberwolves didn't give the Celtics any chance. Although they faced Rondo, Ray Allen, Pierce, Gasol and Joakim Noah's big five lineup, the Timberwolves were all soldiers and were in full swing. Under the attack, the Celtics still lost 95 to 109.

Returning to his home court in the second game, facing the Kings who had just selected No. [-] Irving, they were even more merciless.

在自己的主场威少好好给新科状元欧文上了一课,28分10篮板11助攻1盖帽3抢断的数据，完全碾压7分5篮板4助攻的新科状元欧文。

The Timberwolves also beat the Kings by 131 points 101-30.

After the game, Xu Xiao looked at Irving with a sluggish face and couldn't help but feel a little pity for him. When it comes to basketball skills, Irving can be said to be impeccable.

But it's a pity that this person is a little naughty, his mind is not completely on the court, and he always has to fix some moths.

Now that the Kings have not made the playoffs for many years, I don't know if there will be some changes in the future.

The future is unknown, but now is the best opportunity!

The Timberwolves also took the opportunity to play a winning streak.

It wasn't until the 9th game that they encountered their first loss, and the opponent was also the Lakers they were familiar with.

Before this game, the Lakers had just announced that they had officially signed the Chinese player Yi Jianlian, which Xu Xiao did not expect.

I thought that the UAE would go to the Mavericks as before, but this time it was directly signed by the Lakers, and this move by the Lakers directly excited the domestic fans.

Originally, the Lakers had a lot of fans, but now that they are signing the UAE, they will directly become another "Chinese home team".

The two major groups, Kehei and Garnetthei, were collectively silent.

In this game, Xu Xiao hopes to stage the "National Derby" again.So in this game, Oden was rested and Yao Ming was directly started.

The Timberwolves use Westbrook, Roy, Josh, Ibaka and Yao Ming's starting lineup.

The Lakers used their regular starters this season. This summer, the Lakers traded Fisher for Raptors point guard Calderon.

This top guard in Europe has excellent shooting skills and excellent passing. He once had the highest assist-to-turnover ratio in the league. He hardly makes mistakes. He is an out-and-out pure point guard.

The other positions have not changed, it is still Kobe and Artest, but this year it has been renamed Metta World Peace, and the insiders are Garnett and "Little Shark" Bynum.

At the beginning of the game, the Timberwolves used Ibaka to jump the ball and beat Bynum directly.

The Timberwolves have the ball, Westbrook holds the ball across half court, facing Calderon's defense, starts directly, passes Calderon with one step, and passes inside to Yao, who catches the ball and then makes a deft move to Bynum The small hook makes it easy to hit.

What is the level of Calderon's defense, Westbrook's level of one-step, and Westbrook's ability to create opportunities for inside players is also one-on-one. Although Dayao is not the kind of pie-eating center, Dayao's touch is not. Those pie-eating centers are comparable.

As long as Dayao receives the ball in the three-second zone, he has many ways to put the ball into the basket.

After scoring the first goal, Westbrook and Dayao clapped tacitly.

At that moment, Dayao's expression was a little dazed, as if he saw the "privileged" Francis of Houston.

In the next round, the Timberwolves passed the ball quickly, and Dayao caught the ball with his back from the free throw line. Westbrook found the right time and used Ibaka's off-ball screen to make a quick cut.

Yao Ming saw Westbrook from the corner of his eye, turned his back and threw it into the air without looking at anyone.

"You should be able to catch it, he used to jump so high!"

At that moment, Yao Ming seemed to have returned to the year when he first entered the NBA.

No need to look at it at all, Westbrook behind him rose from the ground and received a dunk in the air.

After the dunk, Westbrook roared to the sky and excitedly gave Yao Ming a high-five to celebrate.

And this moment also moved the DNA of countless Chinese fans.

Because this ball is very similar to the ball that Yao Ming passed to Francis in the All-Star Game back then, and Westbrook's domineering personality is also very similar to the rebellious Francis in his youth.

"Fuck, what did I see? Why does that number 0 in black look so familiar?"

"I didn't expect Dayao, who was at the peak, to meet a new "boss" who is rising."

"I hope these two people can complete their unfinished business."

But the Lakers are not reconciled to being the background board.

Kobe and Garnett's pick-and-roll mid-range consecutive hits helped the Lakers stabilize the situation.

Although these two people are getting older, if they are not injured, it is really difficult to guard against this technique.

Moreover, Dayao was also greatly affected by injuries. Although he lost a lot of weight during the offseason, his speed and explosive power were completely gone. Slow movement also made Dayao lose his previous advantage in the matchup with Bynum.

Bynum received the ball in the low post, turned around quickly, and used his speed to pass Yao Ming.

But at this time the Timberwolves' striker group is already ready.Ibaka quickly came to the defensive position, and Josh shot out from the side, directly slapping Bynum's shot.

"Seeing that there are no audience friends, I have already said that the Timberwolves team is really suitable for Yao Ming. In this team, Yao Ming will not have such a great pressure. The Timberwolves have the best athletic striker in the league, which can completely cover up The shortcoming of Yao Ming's poor athletic ability."

The commentary on the other side of the ocean is also crazily boasting about the Timberwolves' lineup.

But it did let the audience see how comfortable it is for Yao Ming to be paired with an athletic and defensive striker.

Before this time, it is necessary to go through the Rockets' garbage management, and there is almost nothing to do.

Millsap and Artest are the only two transactions that can be called robbing, and it all depends on the completion of boss Xu Xiao, otherwise they would not even be able to get them.

But these two are not good at athletic ability. Millsap was too young when he partnered with Dayao, and his technical level was far from that of the future All-Star. delhi.

So think about it, Yao Ming's last striker with such excellent athletic ability was Swift, who had not been instructed by Xu Xiao and had an undeveloped golf quotient.

Back on the court, Yao Ming apologized for the loss of position just now, but Josh indicated that it was okay and continued.

In the end, this round ended with Kobe's strike, Yao Ming got stuck, Westbrook took the rebound happily, and directly launched a counterattack.

Josh followed up, faced Kobe and Artest's pincer attack, and quickly threw the ball. After receiving it from the baseline, Roy lightly tossed it, and followed up with Ibakata's top-mounted dunk, which once again ignited the momentum of the Timberwolves.

"The offense is smooth and flowing, and the current Timberwolves are getting better and better."

At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves led the Lakers by 29 points 21-8.

In the second quarter, both sides came on the bench. On the Timberwolves side, JR Smith and Bledsoe appeared together in the backcourt.

The Lakers have replaced the veteran Bibby. This season, Bibby did not join the Knicks but came to the Lakers. There is also the white shooter Dunleavy, who was the No. Baby" Glenn Davis.

In the second team, the Lakers and the Timberwolves still played back and forth. Bynum was a bit frustrated with the front line group of Yao Ming and Timberwolves, but after Yao Ming was off the court, he could do whatever he wanted.

Because Oden didn't play in this game, Ibaka and Gibson could only be used as center forwards. Neither of them is a pure center forward.

This made Bynum feel angry when he caught it. Fortunately, JR Smith's extended three-pointer helped the Timberwolves stabilize the situation.

But the Timberwolves also have their own troubles. The starter Roy and the substitute jr Smith both fell into foul trouble.

At this time Xu Xiao looked at the bench, and suddenly waved and shouted:

"Jimmy!"

Butler, who was at the end of the bench, heard the coach calling his name and subconsciously thought he had heard it wrong. It had to be reminded by Mike Reed next to him that he realized that the coach was calling him.

It's no wonder that Jimmy Butler is a rookie this year. In the talented Timberwolves, although Butler works hard enough in normal times, the time given to him is still limited, basically it is some irrelevant game time.

But now, they were a nationally broadcast game, and the opponent was the Lakers. Jimmy was a little unreal.

"Listen Jimmy, I know you are ready, so now you go kill Kobe for me, I believe in your ability, come on, let Los Angeles see, every one of our players who made a name for themselves in the Timberwolves , use Los Angeles as a stepping stone."

Xu Xiao's inspiring words made Jimmy Butler instantly full of fighting spirit.

After the timeout, Jimmy Butler appeared on the stage. Kobe looked at this rookie who looked a bit like Jordan, and couldn't help mocking:

"Rookie, are you going to play against me? Are you ready to be torn apart by me?"

Jimmy Butler ignored it, but stared at Kobe intently.

Seeing that the opponent didn't fight back, Kobe also became interested, and directly reached out for the ball, pulling away to teach this rookie a lesson.

Butler lowered his center of gravity and stared at Kobe's every step. Kobe's sudden start prevented Butler from blocking it immediately, but Butler followed quickly.

Then he stopped suddenly, turned around and made a shot in one go. Because Butler didn't keep up with the first shot, all his subsequent defensive choices were passive.

In the end, I could only watch Kobe throw the ball in.

"Welcome to the NBA, rookie!"
