The godfather of basketball started from conquering the NBA

"That's enough Dwight, haven't you tm seen their countermeasures? They just want to let you fall into the trap of singles. If you keep fighting like this, we can really go out and go fishing."

Garnett couldn't bear it and took the lead. The second quarter was not over yet, and the score had reached 27-59. So far, Howard made 9 of 1 shots. Facing Oden and Dayao's defenses in turn, he only won. 2 points, 5 rebounds and 4 turnovers.

Faced with such data and results, Howard couldn't say anything, and it was Garnett's criticism. The last person he dared to mess with in this team was Garnett.

Usually Kobe would talk to him, and he would have to fight back a few words, but this Garnett he didn't dare.

It's not that he can't beat Garnett, but that this guy is a real jerk. He is not Kobe's character who wants to fight you on the court. He is really scolding and hands-on off the court.

Don't look at Garnett on the court, it seems that he just sprayed and never did anything, but it's not like that off the court, it really hit my teammates.

And kg has another point, that is, he has a great say in the team. He has been in the Lakers for two years, and his blood is already flowing. After winning the championship in the first year, he kissed the floor of Los Angeles, as if he had fought here for more than 20 years.

Therefore, Garnett's status in the team is quite high, coupled with his chattering saliva, Howard respects him at a respectful distance.

Immediately, the Lakers changed their tactics and changed to Nash and Garnett's pick-and-roll as the starting method.

And this change has indeed had a certain effect, because neither Dayao nor Oden are good at defending against pick-and-rolls.

And D'Antoni's pick-and-roll offensive system also has a certain point of view. In addition, Nash and Garnett are both pick-and-roll masters. The Lakers took the opportunity to play 6-0 to narrow the score. Before the end of the half, the score was reduced to 25 points. .

But Xu Xiao still did not change his strategy.

In the second half, the Timberwolves continued the defensive strategy of the first half. It can be seen that in this round of the series, Xu Xiao is determined not to make Warcraft comfortable.

But this is by no means emotional, because if the Lakers want to open the situation now, only Howard can open it up. Xu Xiao is very clear that although Oden is stronger than Howard, if it is a one-on-one, he really can't prevent him from living in the league. A monster that has been mastered for many years.

If Howard opens up this point, thereby driving the Lakers' perimeter to open up the offense as a whole, then the Timberwolves will be difficult to defend.

With Garnett Nash and Artest alone, the Lakers can't hold on. Even if they are allowed to make sparks, it will be a tie in the first three quarters at most.

These old men no longer support them to fill the whole game with intensity.

In addition, his offense is by no means idle. Westbrook hit the Lakers' back line again and again, and Josh also used a stable mid-range to contain the Lakers' momentum of chasing points.

122 to 82, the Timberwolves made another victory.

第三场回到了洛杉矶，这次德安东尼给足了霍华德球权，但是仍然只打出了16中6，15分14篮板2次封盖6次失误的拉跨数据。

129 to 88, three consecutive slaughters.

The Timberwolves have left Los Angeles fans speechless with their super strong performance. Now they just hope that their savior Kobe can return as soon as possible. As for this round of the series, they just hope that it will not be too embarrassing.

When they were eliminated in the semifinals last year, Lakers fans didn't even look at the Timberwolves. Although they don't know where this kind of self-confidence comes from, they never regarded the Timberwolves as their biggest opponent in the West.

After Howard came this year, he directly studied the Heat, and the degree of arrogance can be imagined.

But what's interesting is that in the fourth game, Howard received two technical fouls early and was sent off, and he still left the game with a smile. For him, this may be the last time he played on behalf of the Lakers.

But after losing Howard, the Lakers played very tenaciously. The Lakers, who lost an average of 40 points in the first three games, played back and forth with the Timberwolves in the fourth game.

It even led the Timberwolves by 9 points in the third quarter.

But just as Xu Xiao expected, the Lakers couldn't hold on with just these old guys.

With the decline of physical strength in the fourth quarter, the Lakers' breath was completely broken.

With a little effort, the Timberwolves overtook the score, and the final score was fixed at 111 to 101. The Timberwolves completed their sweep of the Lakers.

这场比赛加内特拿下了25分11篮板，阿泰斯特17分，纳什也有12分10助攻的数据，顶替霍华德打完全场比赛的“大宝贝”格伦戴维斯也有16分8篮板的出色表现。

Although the game was lost, at least this game is a more acceptable way for Lakers fans, but they dare not say too much. After all, Howard has player options this summer. If he becomes a free agent and slaps his ass and leaves, Then the Lakers will be out of talent.

So no matter how disgusting and uncomfortable the management is now, what we have to do now is to stabilize Howard and let him renew his contract as soon as possible.

After the Timberwolves win easily, they will enter the next round of preparations. Their opponents in the next round will be the winners of the Trail Blazers and the Grizzlies.

Although there is a certain gap in strength between the two teams, the Grizzlies are somewhat restrained by the Blazers in terms of style of play.

The pioneering twin stars, Durant and Adelaide are also a little uncomfortable with the defense of the iron-blooded Grizzlies' iron bucket formation.

The two sides are currently tied 2 to 2, but the Grizzlies are the more dominant side on the scene.

If it weren't for the release of Rudy Gay this year, resulting in no one on the front line, no height, plus referees and other unfavorable factors, the Grizzlies may have passed the Blazers.

"Guys, get ready. Our opponent in the next round is very likely to be the Trail Blazers. They caused us a lot of trouble last year. Durant and Adelaide are not easy to solve, and compared to last year, they this year We also introduced the dingo Bogut, which has improved our strength to a higher level.”

Westbrook: "Boss, why are you optimistic about the Trail Blazers? I think the Grizzlies have more hope. If it weren't for the fine whistle, Durant wouldn't have scored at all. Tony Allen is about to torture him to death. Ha ha."

Ibaka: "He tortured you like he did"

Sure enough, Westbrook still has something to say about Durant, even in this life, the grievances have not been cleared up.

"Why don't we make a bet, now that the Grizzlies and the Blazers are tied 2-2, I'll bet that the Blazers will be 4-3 to the Grizzlies, and the loser will ask the whole team to go for a massage. How about it, dare you? bet."

"Boss, you are rich, so it's okay to ask the whole team to give you a massage, but I'm a newcomer and a wage earner. Do you think this bet is conscience?"

"Come on, your big contract for this year has already taken effect."

"Russell, you can't be cowardly."

"That's right, that's right, Russell, you can't be cowardly with such a good opportunity."

Amidst the booing of the crowd, Westbrook gradually lost himself.

"Okay, I'll follow, and I'll bet on the Grizzlies."

"Okay, the bet has been completed, everyone is a witness, but before the bet is completed, you still have to train according to my method. Next, we will train some systems and styles of play for the Blazers. We've practiced before, it's just that we're going to change it."

"Guys, cheer up, for health...no, for victory!"
