214. Twin stars shine!
Amid Garnett's curse, Zhang Hao seemed to hear the encouragement of "Kangbian", and he rushed towards Garnett again and again...
However, although Garnett was angry and his mouth never stopped, he was very calm after venting the iron just now. After being pushed into the three-second zone by Zhang Haoqiang, he seized the opportunity, burst out hard, squeezed up, and tried to interfere with Zhang Hao when he turned over.
However, when Zhang Hao pressed Garnett, he did not turn over, but turned left, and grabbed Garnett's back, grabbed the ball and pushed forward. Garnett was stuck tightly, and Zhang Hao came directly behind Garnett.
Zhang Hao turned around beautifully at a low post, handed the ball to his left hand, avoiding Gugliotta who had made up, and easily made a throw-in.
This move, when the effect of perfectly stuck against the defender when the "Deep Step (Bronze)" turns with a 10% probability trigger, Zhang Hao doesn't even need to use the 3-point speed bonus to use the fixed effect of this medal, because he can push hard!
When he received this medal, he thought that perhaps the effect of this medal in high-level back-attacking may not be as good as low-level back-attacking.
After practice, it is indeed the case!
Even though the Timberwolves have the strength of the playoffs this year, the preseason and the start have been verified, and they have the ability to wrestle with strong teams, after all, they rely on the team.
When encountering Kenny Anderson and Zhang Hao, they can't defend one-on-one. Although most of the other players are functional players, even Barkley becomes functional players when he goes to the Lakers. The arrangement made by Philipley Sanders is to treat Barkley as functional players.
But the Lakers are so powerful! When there is a single point that cannot be defended by one-on-one, and the people have a good vision and can pass the ball, the Timberwolves really have no choice.
Garnett gritted his teeth and tried to calm himself down and cooperate well with his teammates.
After calming down for a while, he realized that Zhang Hao just didn't want him to score. He made good use of this in the next two attacks.
Two more rounds passed, and the Timberwolves worked hard to score another 4 points before the official timeout. When they entered the official timeout, the Timberwolves were 6 points behind the Lakers 17-23.
He scored 23 points in 6 minutes and 11 seconds. This success rate made Del Harris more determined to change his playing style.
Although I didn't think so at the beginning, there was no way, what else could I do if I didn't change it like this?
If this dead child had not made such obvious progress, one more single move and back-attack became richer, and he could complete the linkage with Kenny Anderson on the inside and outside lines, and he would not even have the current style of playing.
At the stage, it is impossible to let Barkley run the tactics with physical strength. At most, it is possible to cooperate with him within a small range.
Then just fight like this! Why don’t you fight? As long as the singles are unsolvable, won’t you come?
Zhang Hao scored 7 points in the first quarter and also passed an assist to Barkley while Gugliotta was attacking in advance. Barkley got 2+1 in the cake, and the TV commentator also had a high evaluation.
However, the TV commentator was amazed more about Zhang Hao's starting stability. It seemed that as long as he should make contributions, he would be able to make contributions.
This is also a pain in the Timberwolves. At first, he saw Zhang Hao not taking action for more than 3 minutes, so Garnett put Zhang Hao's three-pointer once, and Zhang Hao threw it in when he received the ball. He didn't have to find the touch in the game at all, and his stability was terrible.
Every time I see news, I am surprised by Zhang Hao's stability and ability to maintain his feel. Del Harris, as head coach of Zhang Hao, wants to laugh.
Your players spend at least two hours of warm-ups every game. How poor are the stability and performance of the game?
However, the promotional nature is not strong. Del Harris and the management discussed whether to advance the gathering warm-up time and asked the team members to give up like Zhang Hao.
Instead of letting others come to fish early, it is better to do it according to your habits and make effective warm-up preparations during your habits, which is stronger than simply increasing your warm-up time.
It is not difficult to warm up like that, but it is too difficult to have the patience every day. If you are not careful, it may become an venting warm-up after the player loses patience, and waste your energy during the warm-up stage.
The players from the Timberwolves were amazed at Zhang Hao's performance of 3 of 3 of 3 points at the beginning, including 1 of 1 of 2 free throws and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 9 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. However, Philip Sanders calmly saw some opportunities...
He stood in front of the technical stand at the opening and heard what Zhang Hao said.
After observing the game for half a quarter, he found that Zhang Hao was trying every possible way to prevent Garnett from scoring.
Before the official timeout, Garnett took the initiative to run the ball for the Timberwolves, and after receiving the ball, he really attracted Zhang Hao's attention. Garnett completed two assists and got 4 assists in the quarter...
Although Garnett didn't play like this, the Timberwolves still had other opportunities in those two rounds, but if Garnett received the ball, it would be strong if it was passed smoothly.
Garnett took the initiative to ask for the ball and could not get out of the ball, but the probability is small, and the probability of scoring will increase after passing it out... Philipley Sanders chose to seize this opportunity!
...
After the official timeout came back, both sides made adjustments to the lineup and play details.
The Lakers have a clearer use of the stars. At this stage, the Lakers have grasped the singles scores of Zhang Hao and Kenny Anderson, and equipped them with a more suitable lineup.
When Zhang Hao is in charge, he needs at least one inside player with a savvy appearance. The Lakers are many, Barkley, George Lynch, Jason Williams, and Colsey.
A second-hand set point that can be matched, both the Magician and Kenny Anderson and Brian Shaw can do it.
Wing pitchers, Doug Christie, James Robinson, Byron Scott, are all OK.
Kenny Anderson's singles should be simpler. Just pull it apart and he can score a big shot.
But the flaw is that to ensure offense, the defensive lineup will be disrupted, which will make their already tight defensive ability worse.
But there is no way. When they were fighting the Knicks in the opening game, they also felt that they had a strong defense. In fact, if they defended against a slow-paced positional team, they were really good. Zhang Hao, George Lynch, Doug Christie, with Barkley and Kenny Anderson, it was definitely true.
But teams with fast-paced play styles are really uncomfortable.
Since this is the case, play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses!
The Timberwolves also seized the opportunity they discovered, and caught Garnett's first and second graders to use it to death, completely restrained Zhang Hao, created an inside opportunity, and also put a double-point guard combination between Terry Porter and Marbury. When the Lakers contracted in order to defend the basket, there was a chance to shoot from the outside.
Both times were gambling, but it was also Zhang Hao's concentration performance. He saw the opportunity. Two times, the Lakers fought back and recovered the score as soon as they came up.
After overtaking the score, the Lakers failed to widen the gap at once, but they did not give the Timberwolves a chance to overtake.
When the official timeout in the fourth quarter was reached, the Lakers led the Timberwolves 118-111 by 7 points.
The official pause comes back, and Marbury wants to solve the problem by herself and chooses to break through.
This time, Zhang Hao was judged again!
Zhang Hao retracted decisively, and with one palm, he pulled Marbury away from the outside defense and then pressed the ball thrown on the right side of the three-second zone on the rebound, grabbed it and started a counterattack!
There are not many opportunities for counterattack, so Zhang Hao worked very hard every time. This time, Zhang Hao pushed the counterattack alone and failed to trigger the second acceleration of "single riding". When he rushed to the left of the opponent's three-second zone, Garnett had already retreated to the basket and defended in place.
Kenny Anderson was hit by two people, or was it passed to Brian Shaw who followed behind and stopped outside the three-point line? No!
Zhang Hao chose to come on his own and jumped up against Garnett's defense. Garnett also jumped hard. The two fought each other. Zhang Hao pulled the ball horizontally in the air to the right, avoiding Garnett's exaggerated arm, raised his arm straight up, shaking his wrist, and threw the ball out. As soon as he threw it out, his hand was hit by Garnett's pulling back.
If the ball is not shaken out, the ball will be blocked by Garnett with the back of his hand.
However, after shaking it out, it becomes a thug!
The referee whistle sounded! Garnett's foul!
Just as the referee's whistle sounded, the ball that Zhang Hao hooked fell into the basket!
The goal is valid, and there is a penalty for additional results!
I really started to be ruthless. I could do anything except math problems! I didn’t hook my hand and had a good luck in hooking my hand!
As Zhang Hao made extra free throws amid the cheers of fans at the scene, his personal score increased to 37 points, and the Lakers' lead also expanded to 10 points, leading 121 to 111!
There are not many opportunities like this. If you seize it, you will be an opportunity to create an advantage. When both sides have opportunities to create an advantage and you will be seized, it is a state of anxiety. However, in the fourth quarter, Zhang Hao seized most of the opportunities that should be seized, but Garnett did not. The Lakers took the opportunity to create a 10-point lead.
On the Timberwolves, Marbury failed to replicate his performance at the end of the third quarter at the end of the final quarter. Although the Lakers failed to seize more opportunities to widen the gap in the next few minutes, the consumption of time is an advantage for the Lakers!
After 10 minutes and 48 seconds in the fourth quarter, the Lakers led the Timberwolves 128 to 121 by 7 points. If the Timberwolves did not defend this goal, it would basically announce the end of the game.
The Timberwolves defended very well against Kenny Anderson this time, and Zhang Hao's line of picking up was blocked. There was no way. Kenny Anderson was cut off from the passing route, and there was Sam Mitchell, who was one step higher than him, and forced a move with two points...
At the basket, Gugliotta stuck Barkley's rebounding position outside the right side of the three-second zone. He was very good at this position.
However, just as Garnett was about to win the rebound, someone rushed in from behind... Lakers No. 8!
With Doug West close to him, Zhang Hao rushed into the inside, jumped behind Garnett, and pressed the bounced ball into the basket!
At the same time, Doug West pulled Zhang Hao for a moment. Zhang Hao just looked thin and the strength of the center with a 110+ kilogram should have. Not only did he not pull it down, he also lost a foul!
At 11 minutes and 02 seconds, Zhang Hao succeeded in the re-dumping and received an additional penalty!
When Zhang Hao made a free throw, the score difference reached 10 points again, but it was no longer halfway through the fourth quarter. For the remaining time, the 10-point difference will make the Lakers secure the victory!
At the last moment, the Timberwolves' enthusiasm and physical strength were also beaten.
Garnett played the whole game, Marbury played for 44 minutes, Gugliotta played for 46 minutes, and could have relied on the motivation to catch up with the opportunity. Now, time + score = despair, it collapsed!
At the last moment, the Timberwolves relied on Terry Bert to throw a three-pointer, and the Lakers Barkley grabbed an offensive rebound and scored two points.
Zhang Hao played for 48 minutes in the game, making 13 of 24 shots, including 3 of 5 three-pointers, plus 11 of 12 free throws, 40 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, and 4 blocks.
Kenny Anderson scored 26 points and 12 assists.
In the end, relying on the Lakers' crazy performance of 66 points and 20 assists, plus the 18 points of the cake forward combination Barkley and George Lynch's 16 points, Doug Christie and Brian Shaw scored 20 points together...
The Lakers 6 players scored in double digits, defeating the Timberwolves 133-124!
Garnett scored 11 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals and 1 block tonight. He performed for the first triple-double in his career, but he finally lost to Zhang Hao!
It was just a gap of one or two rounds. He did so well in passing the ball and sorted out the team's offense so well. Their team had Gugliotta who scored 32 points, and Marbury also had 24 points. The team's 7 players scored in double digits, but because of the fact that they were not sure about it in a few rounds!
Zhang Hao played this game so well! He felt so well since he went crazy last season with the Knicks, because this is a game where he really confirmed that he was one of the core offensives from the very beginning.
Moreover, facing the Timberwolves, who had an excellent start, won with his 40 points and 6 assists and defensive performance!
On Marbury, he tried his best to win during the competition, and did some things, and finally messed up some things, but he had no choice but to do so, and he tried his best to do it.
Looking at Kenny Anderson's performance of 26 points and 12 assists, he looked at his 24 points and 7 assists, and his score was not low, but 8 of 18 shots was really not worth it when the opportunity was so good. After comparison, he realized that he was not Kenny Anderson's opponent yet.
Seeing Zhang Hao walking towards Garnett, Marbury also wanted to go over and express his thoughts that the Timberwolves would definitely win in the next game. Indeed, looking at this game, the Timberwolves have a chance, but they are not as good as the Lakers.
However, when Marbury arrived next to Zhang Hao and Garnett, he heard Zhang Hao reach out and say to Garnett: "Kevin, I'm having a great time playing tonight. I hope I can play so well next time... Hey, don't leave..."
Garnett slapped Zhang Hao's hand and left!
If you weren't afraid of fighting, Garnett might want to take action!
Chapter completed!
