Chapter 471

Minnesota's big defeat does not seem surprising.

Many people have already expected that there is a big gap between the two teams no matter what aspect they look at.

The only chance for the Timberwolves to win is that Garnett blows up the Warriors inside.

But this is the only thing that is impossible, because this is something that even O'Neal, who was at the MVP level last year, failed to do.

Garnett's post-match speech is like the last cry and pride of the Wolf King, which is both respectful and embarrassing.

Judging from the results of the first round of the first game, there are also teams above and below the gram, but most of them are concentrated in the middle.

Top teams like the Warriors, Lakers, and 76ers all won the game.

In the East, the fifth-ranked Bulls won the first game against the Knicks, and the next gram is up.

During the regular season, the Knicks completed the leap from the Ewing era to the new era.

The current Knicks team has Alan Houston and Sprewell as the offensive core, Marcus Camby as the defensive core, and a group of elite soldiers.

The speed of transformation and upgrading is definitely the fastest in the league.

Achieving 48 wins in the regular season is a very surprising result.

But it's only one more win than the 47-win Bulls.

The biggest problem with the Knicks is that they don't have that kind of offensive player. The starlight in the team is bleak, and if they are close to Alan or Madman, they are really not as good as McGrady.

So the Bulls beat the Knicks 92 to 88 in the away game, and they didn't win much.

Won the game at a critical moment.

This is the first victory of Tracy McGrady, Yao Ming and Brand.

After the game, Knicks head coach Jeff Van Gundy was full of praise for a group of young Bulls, especially Yao Ming.

"He completed a great offense. I didn't expect him to be able to complete the offense from multiple angles. He directly enriched the Bulls' offensive tactical system and made them more difficult to defend."

"In his first playoff game, he was not stage frightened. He scored 17 points and 8 rebounds. The future is promising."

In the west, the sun's next gram is more concerned.

In addition, there is a game between the Blazers and the Kings.

The rise of the two teams is about the same time. The Trail Blazers were the dark horses in the West last year, and the Kings are the dark horses in the West this year.

If the Trail Blazers this season hadn't been troubled by injuries, they shouldn't have dropped to sixth.

But in fact, this generally older Trail Blazers team suffered from injuries and has been playing with an incomplete lineup, even in the playoffs.

Fortunately, Pippen came back in time.

The real combat strength of the two teams is almost the same, and they did play anxiously in the end.

It wasn't until the last minute that Pippen hit a mid-range jumper over Chris Webber with the help of Sabonis' pick-and-roll, which really laid the foundation for victory.

In the end, the Trail Blazers narrowly beat the Kings by 95 point, 94 to 1.

There is a big disparity between the two ends of the game, and the middle game is fierce.

Fierce matches attract the attention of everyone, and many people are watching the four-game series in the middle.

At the same time, the head team began to triumph.

Mainly the four teams of the Warriors, Lakers, 76ers and Bucks.

The Warriors also won Game [-].

Defeated the Timberwolves 103 to 89 at home.

Winning on defense and rebounding, after the whole game, the Warriors sent out 11 blocks, forcing the Timberwolves to make 18 turnovers, while leading 56 rebounds 43 to 13.

Qin Fei scored a quasi triple-double with 33 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists.

This night's score was higher than Garnett's. Garnett only scored 21 points under the Warriors' pursuit and interception, and he only made 22 of 7 shots.

Garnett was so depressed that he almost wanted to switch to the outside line directly.

Why can't the perimeter defense flex its arms, but it can flex its arms below the free throw line?

It doesn't make sense.
The Timberwolves lost two games in a row, and their expectations of grabbing their first win in the first two games were broken, and they left the Bay Area disappointed.

After a short rest, the Warriors also flew to Minnesota, where they were preparing to start the third game of the first round.

The format of the NBA playoffs is about to be revised, but the current first round is still a five-match three-win system. If you lose the first two games, it means that the opponent has three match points.

It is too difficult to win the Warriors three games in a row.

The first round of the playoffs continues to advance, and some awards in the league have also been released one after another.

The first to be released is the best rookie.

今年竞选最佳新秀的球员并不多，最后候选人一共就那么两三个人，场均12.7分7.5篮板1.5封盖的姚明，场均12分7.4篮板1.1抢断1.7封盖的状元郎肯扬马丁，场均13.2分7.5篮板的马克杰克逊。

Except for these three who averaged 10 points per game, no other player averaged double figures per game.

Including Dayao's teammate Mike Miller, the best shooter rookie this year, with a three-point shooting percentage of more than 4%, but only scored 8.9 points, not many shots, and his scoring was not as good as Dayao.

For such a class of rookies, the competitive pressure is indeed not great.

And there are still many people whose attendance rate is not high.

In the end, in the voting session, Kenyon Martin, who had better statistics, won the best rookie of the year.

He only got 44% of the votes in the voting session and almost lost to Yao Ming.

Although he won the best rookie, he also received a lot of controversy. The main reason is that this guy is an insider and his shooting percentage is only [-]%.

In comparison, the Bulls have entered the playoffs, and have completed the next game, and are expected to reach the second round of the playoffs.

So after the results came out, many Chinese fans were not satisfied.

When it came time to select the best rookie team, perhaps because of compensation, Yao Ming was selected to the first team of the best rookie with the highest number of votes.

Also selected are his teammates Mike Miller, No. [-] pick Lang Martin, Mark Jackson and Morris Peterson.

When the best sixth man was selected, the 76ers Aaron McGee defeated other candidates and became the best sixth man of the year.

At this time, some well-known best sixth men have not yet appeared or grown up, and most of the sixth men are really substitute players.

Find some double-digit scoring players from the bench, with better statistics, and at the same time the team's record is not bad.

Originally, Clifford Robinson also had the opportunity to run for this award, but Uncle Cliff encountered an injury in the middle of the season and only played more than [-] games in a season, so he lost his eligibility for the election.

Aaron McGee was elected the best sixth man, which is not a good thing for the 76ers.

The fans of the 76ers trembled, the best sixth man was given to the 76ers, then the most valuable player.
They didn't say anything, but they had already thought of this reason in their hearts.

After all, if you can get the best sixth man option, then you will be affirmed by the league, indicating that this person is helpful to the team's record.

Since he is helpful to the team's record, the contribution of others to the team's record may be less.

In such a conversion, the most valuable player, after all, is the most valuable person. Compared with the same direction, it has already taken advantage.

In 01, the most intense competition was not the Most Valuable Player, but another award that no one had imagined - the Most Improved Player Award.

This small award that Qin Fei also won has gathered many great gods in this year.

Although it was Tracy McGrady who stood out, after him, Peja Stockovich ranked second, Steve Nash ranked third, Sean Marion ranked fourth, Dirk Nowitzki ranked fifth, and Jason Terry ranked sixth.

On April 4, the third game between the Warriors and the Timberwolves.

This is the last stand of the Timberwolves. If they lose, they will really be GG, and they can only go home and fish.

Garnett hadn't tasted a playoff victory in too long, and he was desperate to declare his contribution in Minnesota through such a victory.

Including the league also hopes that this round of the series will not be so "no suspense".

Therefore, with the will of many parties, this game was successfully fought into an anxious battle.

The Warriors and the Timberwolves even tied at 48 in 101 minutes of regular time. The Timberwolves broke out with a strong scoring ability, making all kinds of fouls, and all kinds of fairy balls.

Big Ben left the field with six fouls, and at the critical moment of overtime, Carlisle used Clifford Robinson to partner with O'Neal.

Little Austrian top Garnett.

In fact, Xiao Ao also had four fouls on his back, and he played very hard.

In overtime, the Timberwolves scored first. Brandon, who scored 25 points in the game, hit a single-block screen and hit two points longer, helping the Timberwolves take the lead in establishing an advantage.

Qin Fei wanted to kill inside, but the Timberwolves double-teamed him very resolutely.

Qin Fei shot from outside, Billups missed the shot and returned the ball to Qin Fei.

Not because he didn't have a chance and didn't shoot, but because he had missed some shots before, and he lost his confidence in this shot.

This is the gap between young players and old players. If this ball is Dell Curry or Mullin, they will definitely shoot it.

Billups has shot before and has a reputation for a big heart, but this time, he really wants to give the ball to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei took the ball and rushed again. He didn't have a chance, so he chose to make a direct pull-up jump shot from mid-to-long distance.

The basketball hit the net!

The goal was scored, and the Target Center Arena sighed in unison.

this is okay too
After two rounds, Qin Fei received a pass from Billups in an air cut in the middle, and scored the ball with Garnett on his shoulders.

The referee didn't call a foul, but the two-pointer was actually scored, and the Warriors took the lead again.

Garnett missed consecutive offenses, and the Timberwolves suddenly had a "power outage".

Falling behind this time made them flustered.

Then, Billups forced Brandon to make a turnover on the defensive end, and the Warriors began to control the clock.

Qin Fei received the ball from a low post and stormed the Timberwolves basket, but he still passed the ball to Billups at the top of the arc.

Billups took a deep breath and kicked the ball up.

"Hit!"

Amidst the host's yelling, the entire Target Center arena fell into a silent silence.

The Timberwolves fans seemed to be discouraged, the energy of fighting for the whole game was gone, and the fighting spirit was exhausted.

After that, although Garnett turned over and scored two more points with a jumper, he couldn't save his teammates who had fallen into the dust.

The red light comes on and the game is over.

In the end, the Warriors beat the Timberwolves 110-106 in overtime.

The total score of the series was 3-0, sweeping the opponent.

Although the Timberwolves players lost the game, they still paid tribute to the Warriors players immediately. Everyone clapped and hugged each other, which was relatively harmonious.

Qin Fei also hugged Garnett after the game.

Garnett is actually very confused this season, including Duncan, who he cares most about. He thought he would stick to the small ball market with him at first glance, but he didn't expect to go to the 76ers and join forces with Iverson.

The effect of the joint efforts is obvious to all, and the 76ers immediately became the favorites to win the championship.

"Qin Fei, can Baotuan really win the championship?"

Garnett actually admires Qin Fei more. Qin Fei is the kind of person who relies on his own passion to start a business. In the Warriors, he didn't form a team with other people. If he reached the finals alone, wouldn't he also win the championship?
Qin Fei was taken aback by Garnett's question, but did not expect that there would be additional questions.

He was a little silent, this kind of thing should not be you.
"Actually, I don't think it doesn't matter whether you sign up to the team or not. Maybe some people just want to play in a comfortable environment, but if you want to make a decision, you must bear any impact of this decision. After all, this is a decision of your own choice."

Qin Fei said some strange words, but Garnett felt that it was not strange at all after hearing it, and it was even a little deafening.

Garnett nodded and sighed with emotion: "I am getting more and more confused. The times are changing too fast, but you are right. No matter what, any decision must be carefully considered by oneself."

When did I say that?
Qin Fei nodded and said with emotion: "It's not your fault, it's the general trend."

"What?" Garnett raised a black question mark.

Qin Fei said: "You are very strong, come on."
