Head coach of parallel imports in the NBA

167 Chapter 2 Lore advances [-]
At this time, Middleton suddenly ran from the left side along the baseline to the corner of the weak side. Ginobili, who had been paying attention to the opponent, hurriedly followed, while Yi Jianlian was standing on the right side. At the 45-degree position, Splitter was responsible for marking Yi Jianlian, but Budinger suddenly appeared on Middleton's running route, just blocking Ginobili.

At this time, Yi Jianlian also suddenly moved two steps towards the bottom corner.

Middleton came to the bottom corner, and Oden's pass also arrived.

After catching the ball, Middleton made a shooting action. This action completely attracted the defensive attention of Leonard and Splitter, and both of them wanted to pounce on Middleton at the same time.

It was almost a replica of the previous attack. Middleton's catch was responsible for attracting the Spurs' defensive attention. When Leonard and Splitter all rushed to him, the ball in Middleton's hand was also It was passed to Yi Jianlian who was shorted again.

Popovich on the sidelines almost sensed the crisis when Middleton made a shooting action, so when Splitter wanted Middleton to move, he kept shouting anxiously on the sidelines, making the players on the field Pay attention to Yi Jianlian.

But in the noisy environment, the Spurs players on the court couldn't hear it at all.

Besides, even if I heard it, it would be too late to react.

Yi Jianlian, who was completely emptied, once again made an open three-pointer from the outside.
Swish!The sound of the basketball and the Nets rubbing against each other is definitely a heartbreaking sound for all the Spurs fans present.

A three-pointer scored and the score became 99 to 104.

With a 5-point difference, there are still 13 seconds left in the time, and the Spurs still have the last timeout in their hands.

The victory has been firmly grasped by the Timberwolves. At the moment when the basketball fell into the basket, Popovich turned his head and glanced in the direction of the Timberwolves bench.

The old man knew that he had been calculated by this young guy this time. This guy was obviously stuck in the previous few attacks, leaving himself a chance that seemed to have a chance to complete the lore, just to let himself not Take foul play and focus on defense instead.

And this guy even guessed that he would put the focus of defense on Middleton, and then designed such a tactic, he still underestimated this guy, Popovich thought standing there.

Just when Yi Jianlian scored the crucial lore goal, Chen Dazhuang also turned his head to look in the direction where Popovich was. Smile without losing grace.

Immediately, Popovich's face darkened, and he turned his head away.

But even knowing that the game was irretrievable, the Spurs still did not give up on the theoretical chance that existed. After a timeout, Leonard wasted nearly 9 seconds and finally made a three-pointer. A three-pointer was scored.

The score also became 102 to 104, but there were only 4 seconds left.

Although there was still a short timeout in his hand, Da Zhuang didn't use it.

In the final game, with Middleton's two free throws, the game completely lost its suspense.

102 to 106, the Timberwolves defeated the Spurs by 4 points and won the Western Conference Championship, thus breaking through history and reaching the finals for the first time.

"I think Kawhi has been restricted too much in the Spurs. Otherwise, trade it to me. You can pick any player in my hand. How about it, Mr. Popovich, think about it?" After shaking hands with Popovich with a smile, he whispered.

"Chen, has anyone ever told you that you are actually very annoying when you smile?"

"May I take that as a compliment? Well, think about it?"

"It's not impossible, you give me Greg Oden, how about I give you Kawhi?"

You don't look very good, but you think it's pretty.

"Forget it. By the way, I haven't congratulated you on starting a new vacation. Alas, I'm sad. I have to continue the competition. In fact, I think it's better to be eliminated and start the vacation."

Hearing this, Popovich directly shook the hands of the two of them away, and then left without looking back.

After the old guy got angry, Chen Dazhuang also joined the celebration.

Although it is not the final championship, there is still a simple award ceremony as the Western Conference champion.

After everyone put on the T-shirts symbolizing the Western Conference championship, they came to the awards ceremony together. As the new owner of the Timberwolves, Kelly Turner also took over the Western Conference championship trophy from the award presenters.

The combination of the youngest head coach and the youngest team owner in the league also attracted the shots of all the reporters on the scene. The sound of the flashing lights kept ringing, and Kelly also seemed particularly happy and excited.

"I am very happy and very excited. I still feel that all this is like a dream. This is the first time the Timberwolves have won the honor of the Western Conference Championship. I believe this is not the last time. I believe there will be more in the future." Many such scenes need me, and I need to get used to such scenes. Honey, I love you." The excited Kelly even blew a kiss directly to Chen Dazhuang at the end.

Later, when Chen Dazhuang was interviewed, he seemed very calm.

"This is not due to me alone. I think it is the result of the joint efforts of all of us, as well as the fans who support us. We have also encountered doubts and troughs this season, but it is precisely because of us. All the Timberwolves work together to get us to where we are now, of course this season is not over yet, we still have to compete for the final championship, let me continue to work together, maybe we will create a miracle."

At the end of the game between the Timberwolves and the Spurs, the Eastern Conference finals also ended the sixth round of the two sides.

In the end, the Heat beat the Pacers 117-92 at the Pacers' home court, and also eliminated the Pacers again with a big score of 4-2, thus joining the Timberwolves in the finals.

Alas, I have to make a phone call to comfort Vogel. Forget it, let’s not call, lest this guy think I’ve made a mistake and show off in front of him. After the game between the Heat and the Pacers, even though the result has been predicted , but after the real results came out, Da Zhuang wanted to stimulate his friends immediately.

According to the league's schedule, the first game of the finals will be played on June 6. According to the regular season records of the two sides, the Timberwolves will have the home court advantage.
