Chapter 162 The Ability To Tolerate Silly Beeps

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight on Fox Sports North!"

There are two familiar faces from Minnesota sitting in the home commentary seat of the Target Center.

Tom Hanneman (Tom Hanneman) and former NBA player Jim Petersen (Jim Petersen) and former NBA player Jim Petersen (Tom Hanneman).

"Tonight, we welcome one of the most exciting teams in the history of sports - the Los Angeles Lakers, who have a record of 2 wins and 2 losses in their previous four games."

Hanneman, like every commentator, makes a formal opening statement.

Peterson, his partner, was more serious. He analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the Lakers and Timberwolves in detail, and concluded that the Timberwolves had the opportunity to achieve the same results as the Eagles under the leadership of Garnett.

No matter how they analyze it, it is not as impressive as Kevin Garnett's roar before the game started.

"Kevin, you're a bitch if you don't smash them!" Garnett said quickly, and then screamed into the sky without warning, using his head to test the hardness of the basket and doing multiple push-ups in a row.

Finally, before the game started, the whole set of self-harming opening show ended.

He hammered his chest and gave Kobe a friendly greeting.

It took only half a minute for him to change from a somewhat neurotic character to a docile and nice man. When the game started, parallel importer Michael Olowokandi proved that he was not a parallel importer at least in terms of jump balls.

Chris Mihm lost the ball.

The Timberwolves' first offense went like this: Garnett set up high and passed to Wally Szczerbiak.

Szczerbiak bluffed and made a fake move. That fake move might not even be able to fool Vaughn Weaver, and it would be like a child's play to deceive Kobe.Kobe didn't react at all.

Szczerbiak froze, and when he was healthy a few years ago, he was very good at ignoring Garnett's good opportunities to make those difficult shots.But now, he realizes that life is difficult and dangerous, and he knows that it is difficult to play a good game without relying on Garnett.

He looks at Garnett's position and returns the ball to him.

So far, the Timberwolves have wasted ten precious seconds of offensive time.

Garnett got the ball in the low post on the right, facing Lamar Odom, a not very tough offensive player against a not very stable defender.Suddenly, the wolf king stepped up horizontally, showing pure talent.

Odom looked at Garnett's shot, and the helplessness in his expression proved how fragile his defense was.

2 is better than 0
"Ahhhhh!!!"

Hitting a jumper, Garnett roared.

"It's really hard for him to play, what do you think?" Weaver commented while also eager to get the approval of his peers.

Wei Xia said: "His voice has always been good."

The evidence is that this year is Garnett's tenth year in the NBA, and he has not heard any rumors of vocal cord injuries.

Smush Parker made the decision without authorization, regardless of whether Kobe's position is good or not, he just wants to follow his own mind and let others go crazy.The Timberwolves' starting point guard Marco Jaliqi didn't expect Reaper to suddenly draw the knife.

Parker dribbled the ball like he was a Kobe Garnett-like giant, dribbling up and shooting.

boom!
Missed, Garnett grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Yaliqi.

In addition to his good-looking wife, Yaliqi's finishing skills are also good. He accelerated his progress, and when he reached the frontcourt, he relied on the god of death to make a 2+1 pick.

In this regard, Kobe did not directly complain about Parker.

Change to last season, he has already started spraying.This season's Kobe is a self-cultivating Kobe, a Kobe who is not easy to get angry, and Parker's existence has particularly increased his endurance to tolerate stupid beeps.

What's more, this is only Parker's fifth game for the Lakers.In the first four games, he played well in two games, played poorly in two games, and one of them was a disaster.When the Lakers found out that Parker would be normalized like that, Kobe would go berserk completely, and he would never forget how the Grim Reaper killed the Lakers on various occasions.

Parker would go on to become the starting point guard on a championship team in the CBA.When introducing him, in order to highlight his extraordinary, people will say that he used to be the starting point guard of the Los Angeles Lakers.

In the first quarter of today's game, Parker vividly showed the big guys how terrible he is for the team that owns him.

One and a half minutes into the first quarter, the fast break dunk failed;

After 1 minute, an inexplicable dribble error;
Incredible self-assertion, sudden and untargeted passing, poor shooting ability.

Of course, a person nicknamed Reaper can do more than that. What really makes him cast a shadow on today and the future Lakers is that he is used to playing half-dead on the court, and then off the court.

Just as Odom broke through from the outside and staged a magician-level figure array to score, Sprewell's frequent loss of position on the defensive end caused Garnett to send good passes in turn to assist his teammates to score.

Five minutes later, the Lakers were beaten 5 to 18.

Following Parker's freehand breakthrough, he ignored Kobe's vacancy, and tried to let the madman complete the attack with a casual back pass, but he didn't grasp the strength. When the ball flew out of bounds, he fundamentally destroyed Kobe's ability to tolerate stupid beeps.

"If you don't give me the fucking ball, I'll throw you out of here, you moron of morons!" Kobe yelled.

Parker took a look at Kobe. He was the only one who was so mad at Kobe without worrying about his status on the team.

Kobe's anger didn't matter to him. Since he wanted the ball, he gave it to him.

Parker's abstention-like attitude made Kobe even more irritable.

Kobe has forgotten what he needs to do, triangle offense or boxer offense or what?It doesn't matter anymore, the important thing is that tactics can't vent his anger, one-on-one can.

He continuously changed directions and swallowed Szczerbiak's defense, and the height he forcibly pulled up required Garnett to have a chance to interfere like an embellishment.

Szczerbiak, whose physical fitness was destroyed by injuries, watched Kobe take off in front of him, unable to do anything.By the time Kobe fell, the basketball had reached its highest point. Finding the center, it ended perfectly with a bang.

Garnett caught the ball again and attacked.

He only scored one goal in the previous few minutes, but he beat the Lakers with a pass.

No one will doubt his ability to break defenses. How dazzling Odom's offensive talent is, how hot the black hole effect on the defensive end is.

It's not his fault, it's his style.With his technical characteristics, it will be even more popular in the future small ball era.It was an era when the ball-handler was above all else. If you can’t catch rebounds, you will have the inside line to help you block. If you can’t defend, you will have the inside line, wings, and even 3D guards to cover the bottom. If you can’t make three-pointers, you can let the center come out and shoot three-pointers.

Those waste snacks whose tails are not wagging enthusiastic enough may still be traded by the team.

Garnett broke through Odom's defense and played hard with the ball, 2+1.

During Garnett's free throw, the Timberwolves replaced Olowokandi, played Garnett at center, and played Eddie Griffin at the four.

The Lakers approach is to replace Brian Cook and replace Chris Mihm.

Garnett made an extra free throw.

21 is better than 8
"Our inside line is not KG's opponent at all." Weaver nags.

Wei Xia believes that Kobe is also not comparable to any outside line from the Timberwolves.Why is the sense of presence on the court far inferior to Garnett, and the Lakers are also beaten by the Timberwolves?
The answer was revealed, and Parker passed the ball to Sprewell.

Kobe asked for the ball to no avail and continued to move.

He baited his teammates for a long time, but no one gave the ball to him. At the same time, facing the former club that refused to let him support his family, Sprewell felt angry from the heart, and he wanted to make a goal with an annual salary of tens of millions to let them know that not giving him a salary of tens of millions and not letting him support his family was the stupidest mistake the Timberwolves made since the establishment of the team⑴.

Sprewell wanted to challenge Garnett.

Seeing his former teammates stepping forward, the Wolf King showed no sign of retreating. He resolutely put on a stance and blocked the madman with mediocre athletic ability.

That was probably the most brutal block that Wei Xia has ever seen.

Garnett hit the Madman's ball to the backboard first, and then grabbed it with the other hand.

The target center that exploded in an instant made Phil Jackson stand up and gesture a pause to the technical stage.

From the look on his face, Smush Parker had pretty much destroyed his ability to tolerate the stupid beep.

The Timberwolves counterattacked successfully, scored 23 points in half a quarter, and led the Lakers by 15 points at home. Seeing that the game was about to be turned into a revenge battle against the Lakers—revenge for the 04 Western Conference Finals—the Lakers firmly requested a timeout.

Jackson's expression was extremely cold, as if he had been stung by something.

"Wish, Luke." He called out the names of the two young players.

Wesha and Luke Walton got up together, and Jackson ordered them to replace Parker and Sprewell.

Parker sat down indifferently, even if he disappointed Zen Master and was sprayed by Kobe for half a minute, he didn't feel the slightest guilt.

In his eyes, playing badly is everyone's problem, why only blame him?
From Wei Xia's point of view, it is a good thing for Parker to play like this.

Not only did he not have the slightest anger in his heart, but he also had the urge to continue to sit and cheer for Parker, asking him to continue his efforts.

⑴ Some people may say that Garnett's contract is the most stupid.Put yourself in the shoes of the Timberwolves, if you were the owner of the Timberwolves and gave a player like Garnett a premium contract, although the team has lost room and room for reinforcement for a long time, the team’s market value has doubled several times because of this person. Would you regret it and think it is stupid?Of course, I think the yin-yang contract incident that harms others and oneself is even more stupid.
