Chapter 334: Lakers grilled Timberwolves, Mavericks knocked down the Trail Blazers

　　 Another matchup in the first half of the Western Conference was the Los Angeles Lakers against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
　　 The core members of the Lakers’ three consecutive championships have not been lost, but the overall lineup of the team has been reduced compared to the previous thickness.
　　O'Neal, Walker, Fox, Kobe, and Fisher started all five. The Lakers who got rid of the injury are finally able to play in good health.
　　 On the bench lineup, there are perimeter killer Horry, potential small forward Devin George, "mad dog" Madsen and others.
　　 But if you want to find a player from the bench that can be called the leader of the bench, you really can't find it. This is the biggest difference between the Lakers and previous seasons.
　　 The Timberwolves have a neat lineup.
　　 Nestorovic, Garnett, Szebiak, Peler, Hudson formed the starting lineup.
　　 Compared with the Lakers, except for Garnett and Szebiak, they are obviously weaker than the Lakers in other positions.
　　 But compared with the Lakers, the Timberwolves' bench strength is quite impressive.
　　 Shooting guard Jill's level is enough to compete with Piller for the starting spot.
　　 Inside player Joe Smith was the No. 1 overall pick in 1995. Although he has just returned from injury, he has been able to provide strong support for the Timberwolves inside. He averaged 15-20 minutes per game.
　　 Strickland, a veteran point guard, is the team's pinnacle at a critical moment.
　　 Forward Trent and point guard Mark Jackson can also occasionally show up.
　　 In addition, the Timberwolves also has an old Shentong teammate, Loren Woods.
　　 Woods got a lot more opportunities this season than last season, and even started 11 games.
　　 But the weakness of Woods's thin body leading to insufficient confrontation is constantly magnified as the game progresses, and his data of 2.1 points, 2.5 rebounds and 0.3 blocks is not enough to support him on the court.
　　Because when he is on the court, the Timberwolves are often blown up by the opponent.
　　 Two years, Woods' confrontation has not improved significantly.
　　 In a high-level league like the NBA, it’s impossible to lie down and make money, either because of talent or sweating.
　　Here, like sailing against the current, retreat if you don’t advance.
　　......
　　 Before the start of the series, no team was optimistic that the Timberwolves could win, even if it ranked one place ahead of the Lakers in the regular season.
　　 Because everyone knows that the Lakers are a playoff team, and O'Neal in the playoffs and O'Neal in the regular season are not the same person.
　　 In the first game, the Lakers proved that the experts' eyesight was sharp.
　　117-98, bloodbath Minnesota.
　　 The Lakers turned away from the guest and made the first move in the away game.
　　 Kobe showed great power, scored a game-high 39 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, and shot up to 53.3% of the field goal.
　　 O'Neal also entered the state, contributing 32 points, 10 rebounds and 5 blocks, completely blasting the opposing Slovenian center.
　　 Garnett's performance is as stable as ever, 23 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. He has done everything for the team, but compared to the brutality of the Lakers team, he appears isolated and helpless.
　　 However, the first game was defeated at home. The Timberwolves, like a wolf smelling blood, launched a fierce counterattack in the second game.
　　119-91, the Timberwolves tied the big score to 1-1.
　　 Garnett scored 35 points, 20 rebounds and 7 assists. The Wolf King took the lead and provoked the entire team.
　　 What is surprising is that point guard Hudson, a non-draft player who is only 1.85 meters tall, scored 37 points and 10 assists higher than Garnett in this game.
　　 The Timberwolves like the world proves that they are not soft persimmons that the Lakers can knead.
　　 In the third battle, the Timberwolves continued the nature of the second battle.
　　114-110, the Timberwolves picked the Lakers away through overtime.
　　 Garnett scored 33 points, 14 rebounds, and 4 blocks. Hudson also assisted with 27 points and 4 assists.
　　 On the Lakers side, although Kobe scored 30 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, O'Neal also grabbed 28 points and 17 rebounds, but apart from Fisher, no one scored in double figures.
　　 After the first three games, the Timberwolves took a 2-1 lead, which not only surprised the fans, but also frightened the league and experts.
　　 So, in the fourth game, the Lakers defeated the Timberwolves 102-97 logically.
　　 There were many penalties that were not conducive to the Timberwolves in this game, but they weren't wronged. After all, the referee didn't enter the game after all.
　　 What's more, Garnett's appeal is not as strong as the OK combination.
　　 The first high school student in the United States is waiting to watch the Western Conference semifinals between the Spurs and the Lakers. No one wants to see Hudson, a small point guard running around the court with two braids.
　　 Maybe it was because the referee was so angry in the fourth game. In the next two games, the Timberwolves have lost the spirit of the beginning of the series.
　　 The Lakers defeated the team and eliminated the Timberwolves 4-2 as everyone wanted.
　　 Garnett: I will come next year.
　　 Referee: I will be here next year!
　　 Garnett: Are you trying it out?
　　 Referee: Try it, try it.
　　 Garnett: Call brother!
　　Kassel, Sprewell:─────?
　　......
　　 In the second half of the Western Conference, the Dallas Mavericks, second in the Western Conference, faced the Trail Blazers, seventh in the Western Conference.
　　 Nowitzki, who scored 46 points in the first game, hit the Mavericks and hit a wave of 3-0.
　　 Just as the Mavericks prepared for the next round in advance, and all the experts were optimistic about the Mavericks sweeping the Blazers, the toughness of the Blazers veterans was shown.
　　 98-87, 103-99, 125-103 consecutive three cities, tied the big score to 3-3!
　　 This process stunned everyone.
　　 How can the Blazers suddenly reborn when they are behind 0-3?
　　The reason is one person!
　　 Zach Randolph.
　　 3 games behind, victory is hopeless, Trailblazers coach Maurice Cheeks simply let those young people play more.
　　Who knows that Randolph in the starting field exploded as soon as he burned, and Nowitzki scored 25 points and 15 rebounds, and instantly overwhelmed Nowitzki in performance.
　　 Nowitzki really couldn't find a way for this fat-headed character.
　　 Cheeks discovered that he had accidentally dug out a piece of gold buried in gravel.
From 0-3 to 1-3 to avoid being swept, this is Randolph's own opportunity for the team, Cheeks simply continued to let Randolph do it by himself~EbookFREE.me~ As a result, Randolph Really striving, the next two games against the Mavericks, all the team's highest score.
　　 22 points and 9 rebounds in the fifth game, 21 points and 10 rebounds in the sixth game.
　　 Among them, Nowitzki only scored 4 points in the sixth game.
　　 Such a burst of performance allowed the Blazers to enter the tie-break and saw the hope of eliminating the Mavericks to advance.
　　 In the history of the NBA, there has never been a team that can be behind 0-3 and finally win 4-3.
　　If the Blazers can do it, they will make history!
　　 Under the stimulus of this honor, Cheeks became confused again, and he reused the veterans who had already given up.
　　 And Randolph, at the most critical moment, was again ranked fourth or even fifth by the head coach.
　　 The result will not lie.
　　 The Mavericks successfully won the Battle of Tianwangshan 107-95, and thrilled to eliminate the Trail Blazers 4-3.
　　 After the game, a reporter interviewed the fans who watched the game live and asked him his views on Cheeks’ coaching in this round of the playoffs.
　　 The fans gave a very pertinent evaluation: Shit you are a pool of shit, life is cheaper than ants, I drive a Mercedes, you dig your nose...#%@...(￥(not shown)
