Chapter 117:

After the timeout, the Timberwolves attacked. Trier broke through to attract Grant to change the defense to the middle. Garnett squeezed Guo Xukong to catch the ball and attracted O'Neill to supplement the defense to give Nestorovic. The latter did not receive the ball directly. Shot, took another step to hit the basket, was pulled back by O'Neill.
Nestorovic made two free throws, 11 to 7. After scoring, his performance is still disappointing, the goal is not good, and a little slower may be blocked.
Kobe Bryant's singles Billups, the horns were caught by Garnett.
Kobe scored a goal for Grant, and Garnett pursued and defended very quickly, and stepped forward to interfere. His height and wingspan can interfere even if he doesn't jump. Grant greeted Garnett with an iron shot, and his rebound was snatched by Szebiak.
Billups immediately received the pass and quickly dropped it, before the three-point line changed to break and caused the Kobilans foul.
Billups made two free throws and scored his seventh point, 11 to 9.
Woodson commented: "Today both sides have very high offensive efficiencies. I do n’t think anyone will start with Jason Guo and Chauncey Billups breaking points, and they feel hot."
Hovas said with a smile: "Changxi has always wanted to prove that he is not a parallel, he finally did it at the beginning of this season."
Billups joined the Celtics in 1997 as a rookie show. He started a wandering career after playing only 51 games in Boston. The Green Army traded Billups because he was a recognized problem player when he was young!
Rookie season he was everywhere to provoke trouble and was invited to the police station for tea. In the worst case, he and his friend played a 3p defendant with a female to the police station. The unbearable "Cardinal" traded him to the Raptors.
The ill-fated Billups failed to join Carter, and was soon traded to the Denver Nuggets by the Raptors. After that, he was seriously injured for two consecutive seasons, and his shooting percentage in the first few seasons of his career has been less than 40%.
Then he was traded to the Magic, and was abandoned again before playing a game for the Magic. In the end, he could only go to the Timberwolves in the bitter cold. His positioning in the Timberwolves was also very awkward. Obviously he was a point guard with a height of 191CM and a weight of 92 kg, but because of Trier in the team, he was forced to take the position of a point guard.
The Lakers played out of position, and Fox made a mistake. His intention to pass Kobe was too obvious. He was successfully intercepted by Billups and quickly distributed to Trier on the other side.
Guo Xu showed a speed advantage to catch up with Trier and succeeded in getting close when he pulled the ball three steps.
Come on, don't want to score easily.
He spotted the step and prepared a hat for the other party. How did he know that he hadn't jumped yet, Trier stumbled and fell to the ground, throwing the ball to the basket at random, the referee's whistle followed.
"Touch porcelain" Guo Xu will also, but the referee often ignores the newcomer, Trier such a famous veteran is more likely to cause fouls. Guo Xu raised his hand for a foul, and did not show innocence with the referee nonsense. In the new season, he has no fewer than three fouls per game and is used to it.
Trier equalized the score with two free throws. 11 to 11.
When the Lakers attacked, O'Neal took the back of the ball to force the basket to attract a double-team, forcibly turned to the middle and split the ball to the left. Grant shot an iron in the bottom line of the open space. He took a step forward and grabbed a front rebound and quickly shot and hit the iron. Zebyak grabbed a defensive rebound.
The Timberwolves continued their old tactics, with the point guard holding the ball and playing inside the pick-and-roll. Sanders, like Jazz coach Sloan, advocates pick and roll offense. The difference is that he also emphasizes that the wing players run without the ball and catch the ball. Trier has regained his second spring since joining the Timberwolves with the Nuggets, has been in control of a lot of ball rights, and his playing time is also guaranteed.
Trier and Nestorovic broke through after a pick-and-roll. Seeing O'Neill was far away, he missed a jumper and missed a jumper. This trick is simple and difficult to block. Whether you can get a mobile phone will depend entirely on the opponent's defensive attitude inside. If you encounter a big man who doesn't like to change defense, you can cast it casually.
O'Neill grabbed a defensive rebound and passed it to Guo Xu. Guo Xu advanced to the frontcourt and passed it to Kobe. Kobe received the ball and forced a layup. He played cricket under Billups.
13 to 11. Guo Xu sent the first assist.
The Lakers only took 5 seconds to attack this time. They can occasionally play fast breaks. Kobe is misplaced against Billups. Others in the fast break are not easy to defend.
The Timberwolves attacked. Trier forced O'Neal after a midfield pick-and-roll and missed a layup due to interference. Nestorovic grabbed a rebound from the frontcourt and distributed the ball to the outside Billups. The latter and Garnett played another pick-and-roll, which attracted Grant to switch and was assigned to Garnett.
Garnett faced Bryant on the right side and then pulled out a jumper. The shot was very high. Kobe could not cover it and the goal was scored! 13 to 13.
When returning to defense, Garnett hammered his chest and roared up in the sky. This was just a jumper, but he seemed to have pulled O'Neal.
Previous generation Guo Xu watched many Timberwolves games on TV, and it was not deep. Now seeing Garnett's jumper up close, he understands why there are so many fans in the future who are "hard", and he is too deliberate.
The Lakers attacked, O'Neal's low attack attracted a double-ball to the outside Kobe, Kobe received the jumper and the ball, Billups rushed out can only interfere slightly. 15 to 13.
Woodson said: "The power of the Lakers' triangle offense is beginning to show. When O'Neal, Kobe and Jason form a triangle on one side, the Timberwolves can only let the weak side to trap O'Neill, otherwise there will be a good shot opportunity."
Hovas agreed with this point: "Because of the joining of Jason Guo and Grant, I think the overall strength of the Lakers is stronger than last season, and the Timberwolves can only win offense if they want to win. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
Billups and Szebiak played a ball-free screen. After receiving the ball, he swayed the defensive Fox. Then he bumped into the foul shot and got three free throws.
Billups made three free throws, 15-16. At this time, Jackson adjusted the lineup and Leder played for Fox.
Today, Fox is in poor condition. He did not make a move after running back, and there was another mistake.
The Lakers attacked, the players pulled away, Kobe dropped the ball to O'Neal, this time O'Neal went deep into the rim, waiting for Garnett to make up the defense, turning around was a one-handed dunk and knocked Nestorovic Staggered. 17 to 16.
When he returned to the defense, O'Neill celebrated with the arrogant "Overlord Step" and applauded the audience. He is the toughest player in the NBA, and the only one of the four centers who are not good at shooting, can dominate the court by relying on a low position.
O'Neill's sturdy body, unique expression and exaggerated stride meteor make him able to ignite the passion of the whole stadium after every performance. He prefers to call this action "youth dance step".
The Timberwolves continued to play pick-and-roll, did not create a misplaced opportunity, Garnett held the ball high and responded, waiting for the teammates to run and divide the ball.
Billups could not get rid of Kobe, Leder followed Szebiak. Garnett scored a goal to Trier on the left, who caught the ball and missed it under Guo Xu's chasing defense.
Grant took the rebound and passed it to Kobe in a straight line. Kobe passed the half pass to Guo Xu on the right. Guo Xu took the ball to the middle of the road and leaned on Trier to force the basketball in his left hand.
19 to 16, Guo Xu personal 9th ​​point, the first quarter broke out.
Guo Xu and Kobe's beautiful fast break connection made the Timberwolves coach Sanders again called a timeout. The Lakers must enter almost every goal.
