Chapter 51: discouraged

　　 On Christmas Day, Qi Li did not spend alone with Zhang Yiyi, but chose to have dinner with Huang Qi's family.
　　 Zhang Yiyi is a slacker, Qi Li doesn't want to cook alone, so he just got together to ease the embarrassment of the previous day.
　　 After Christmas, Qi Li will lead the team again and will not stay at home. Zhang Yiyi goes to New York alone.
　　 After a few days of rest, the players' condition has to be adjusted. Fortunately, the team that came to challenge them is not strong.
　　 The Timberwolves are still fishy this season, and the biggest change is that they won the fifth pick Kevin Love.
　　 The Timberwolves are not too bad offensive and defensive, but they often lose by small scores. I don’t know if it’s bad luck or bad luck.
　　 Their first scoring point is inside Al Jefferson, who is short and stout like Randolph, and the Knicks are not too worried.
　　 Qi Li wears an angel doll, her hair is meticulous, and she wears a decent suit.
　　 At the beginning of the game, the two teams were attacking. The main firepower of both sides first came from the outside. The Timberwolves teenager Randy Foye performed very well.
　　 The Timberwolves scored slightly better inside, but the Knicks still protected their rebounds.
　　 Now I'm quite satisfied with the rebounds, and the players' enthusiasm has risen.
　　 The Knicks are better at seizing opportunities than the opponent, and they gradually began to control the situation in the first quarter.
　　 This situation is normal. The audience in the stands is very relaxed when they bully a small belly at home.
　　 Habits are terrible. The Knicks' ball has been tightening the hearts of the fans in the past few years. Now that they are strong, they will bully the weak defensive team that is smooth. Everyone has already assumed that the Knicks are a strong team.
　　 Unexpectedly, there was a problem during the rotation period.
　　 In the rotation period, the Knicks usually bully others, but sometimes there are accidents.
　　 It may be that Christmas is too hilarious. Crawford has played a few consecutive irons this time, and the Timberwolves have made consecutive three-pointers from the bench outside.
　　 Sebastian Telfair, Rodney Carney, Rashard McCants are all small people, but they burst for nearly 30 points before the Knicks reacted.
　　 No one thought that in less than half a quarter, the Timberwolves suddenly overtook and led by double digits.
　　 Qi Li has a feeling of vomiting blood, this is the angel doll on the opposite side.
　　 It’s not uncommon for alliances to suddenly explode like this, and Qi Li is lucky to encounter it now.
　　 But it was a bit sudden, and it would be nice if the opponent was a nerve knife like Crawford.
　　 The current situation is a bit inexplicable. Qi Li thought that if the opponent was defensively, no one would be afraid of the Knicks. It seems that he still cannot be taken lightly.
　　 The strength of competitive sports is the first, but the metaphysics of a single game is very important.
　　 Qi Li also quickly adjusted the defensive strategy and supervised the players to increase their aggressiveness.
　　 The biggest change he brought to the Knicks this season is the player's mood.
　　 was suddenly beaten up, and the Knicks players were also very angry. They were more active on both ends of the court.
　　 Compared with the previous indifference, the Knicks' mental state has undergone a qualitative change.
　　 In addition to the communication between Qi Li and the players, the key is the benefits of victory.
　　 Qi Li took them to more victories, won the respect of the players, and inspired them to win or lose.
　　 Athletes are not uncomfortable. In the past, they lost too much and were numb and hid their eagerness to win. Qi Li just helped them return to normal.
　　 After all, winning is so comfortable, who wants to be trampled underfoot.
　　 After all, the Knicks' lineup is stronger. After they exerted their power, the Timberwolves' outbreak did not continue.
　　 This is the difference between a role player and a star. A role player can also eat dumplings, but it is difficult to continue to perform terrifying after being targeted, but when the star is in good condition, even if it is targeted, it can show a strong deterrent.
　　 Before the end of the first half, the Knicks worked hard to reduce the gap between the two sides to single digits.
　　 During the intermission, Qi Li also said something to everyone, "We have a longer rest during the holiday season. This is a good opportunity to relax, but it does not make you forget basketball and how to play the game."
　　 "We are now a strong team. Everyone must adjust their mentality. We will always do better than those teams that are not competitive and ambitious, whether it is during breaks or during games."
"The league has enough opportunities, depending on whether everyone can grasp it. One season's performance may make everyone's salary difference by tens of millions. I hope everyone can become the best in the league, but you also Be determined enough."
　　 "The second half, give me a good fight."
　　 Qi Li's words made everyone very ashamed, and they let the coach down.
　　 After a few days of rest, some people are really too relaxed. They are no longer mud. They have to change their mentality. Timberwolves are not allowed to steal their victory in Madison Square Garden.
　　 As soon as the third quarter came up, the Knicks played extremely fiercely~EbookFREE.me~The Timberwolves players were also a little angry, what do you mean, want to crush them in one breath?
The Knicks have won a few games this season and they really consider themselves a strong team. The Timberwolves players were a bit nervous before, but after they took the lead in the first half, they had a different mentality. Able to turn over.
　　 Even if they are bad this season, they have to bring the Knicks back to their true colors.
　　 Of course, the Timberwolves have gone smoothly before the outside line is gone, and their main attack point has come to Al Jefferson again.
　　 The confrontation between the two sides has become more and more fierce. Although the defense is not very good, they played very passionately.
　　Many strong teams can break the gap in the third quarter, because it takes a little time for players to warm up during the intermission, and it will be easier for strong teams to seize the opportunity, but if the two teams fight directly, it may cause the final quarter to fail.
　　 Players can't break out throughout the game. In many cases, the highest intensity is in the second half of the last quarter. Now the intensity is up early. If the team can't support it first, it will definitely lose.
　　 The Knicks are not afraid of this, they can play more people.
　　 The Timberwolves' bench lineup played better in the first half, but that kind of explosive points can't be reproduced. Now it depends on how much energy the team's strongest lineup can have in the end. Qi Li does not believe that the Timberwolves can match.
　　 Of course, he still has a lucky blow in his hand, which can defeat his opponent's confidence at a critical moment.
　　 Qi Li is very calm on the sidelines. He has a lot of cards in his hands, but the Timberwolves coach Kevin McHale is getting worse and worse. It will be them who can't hold it first.
　　 Sure enough, after entering the final quarter, the efficiency of the Timberwolves began to decline.
　　 They also wanted to cross the Knicks with a breath of anger. Now that the Knicks are really strong, their breath has vented.
