Chapter 67 Miserable Boozer
Two days passed quickly, and Ling Bo's study hadn't made any progress. They were about to fly to Minnesota to challenge the Timberwolves away.

Minnesota, which is not considered prosperous, is like a lonely North Star, engraved on the map of the United States.It is hot in summer and cold in winter. Compared with those metropolises with unique geographical location, Minneapolis is not such a place to linger.

In 1989, a rookie had just arrived. He had to admit he was weak, and he had to stand at attention when he was beaten. It was not until 1995 that a turning point came.

Kevin Garnett, a gangly high schooler, joins the team.

Just like an NBA superstar, Garnett's childhood was not good. It is said that children from poor families headed home early. However, a 13-year-old boy was forced to go to the dock to do coolies. It is embarrassing to think about it.

The suffering of childhood made Kevin Garnett's personality inevitably split apart. He is a Taurus, but he has a Gemini-like personality.

Garnett, who is loyal to the league, received a six-year contract of 1.26 million in his third year in the league.That was in 1999, more than double Ling Bo's current salary.

However, this contract made it difficult for the Timberwolves' reinforcement project to continue.

Garnett, who is stingy and stingy, once haggled over a few dollars for tips and waiters, but in charity, he sold millions of dollars in donations.

The grumpy Garnett, who is used to talking trash, smashed the rookie's jaw with a punch, but such a man adopted the grandson of the neighbor's grandmother's family as if he was his own.

Interpret your true self with a double-faced personality.

Garnett is such a strange, complicated player.

Scores, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, an all-round player, dedicating everything to the Timberwolves, Spider-Man Garnett, who is 2 and 11 in height, can always deliver one gorgeous report card after another.However, behind the magnificence, there is a deep loneliness.

Fail, fail, fail again.

First round, first round, first round.

The brilliance of the moment, the end of the song, the reincarnation of the six realms, and the endless abyss.

Kevin Garnett, nicknamed "KG" and "Wolf King", was selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves with the fifth overall pick in the first round in 1995.Garnett on the court has comprehensive skills, outstanding passing, and extremely deterrent defense.

If the matchup with the Rockets is a test of the Cavaliers' physical fitness, the matchup with the Timberwolves will be a major test for the Cavaliers' inside players.

The Cavaliers flew to Minnesota. After the plane landed, everyone felt a severe cold. It was winter at this time, and the biting cold wind made people wrap their coats tightly.

Fortunately, Ling Bo has internal strength to protect his body, and the general severe cold and heat can't help him.

When the time comes to the local night, the Target Center arena is full of seats. Although the local climate is very cold and snowy, the fans here are very enthusiastic.

Before the game, Mark Ososki found Ling Bo and said to him: "Ling, I regret to tell you a piece of news, I hope you can accept it."

Ling Bo smiled and said, "Assistant Mark, let me guess. The coaching staff must have discussed and asked me to continue to serve as a substitute, right?"

Mark Osorsky said: "Ling, do you really have the ability to foretell? Is what Carlos said true?"

Ling Bo, ho, it's not difficult to guess at all, it seems that the nickname Ling Shenzhu cannot escape.

Ling Bo said: "Assistant Mark, I know that you have been fighting for me since I joined the Cavaliers, but the coaching staff, Brother Silas, sometimes you can't do anything."

Mark Osorsky smiled awkwardly and said: "Ling, you are such a good and considerate boy. The head coach said that he understands that you are capable of serving as the starting point guard, but the team lacks A strong player, both offensively and defensively, you are a surprise player on the bench."

"The five players on the starting list have LeBron. He has certain organizational skills, but the bench lacks leaders. I hope you can accept it."

Ling Bo said: "I don't care about starting or coming off the bench, I just want to play, I just want to win."

Mark Osorsky said: "I understand. In fact, this is a nominal starter or substitute. The head coach said that it will increase your playing time, and promised that it will increase from the previous 10 minutes per game to a lot now. in 24 minutes."

Ling Bo said: "I see, I accept the coaching staff's arrangement, and I will take my sixth man position well."

Mark Osorsky was taken aback, then said, "The best sixth man?"

"By the way, the substitute also has an award, the best sixth man, not bad, hahaha."

In the Target Center arena, players from both sides have already entered the field, and the starting lists of both sides are shown on the stadium screen.

Minnesota Timberwolves: Sam Cassell, Latrell Sprewell, Wally Szczerbiak, Kevin Garnett, Michael Olowokandi.

Both of the Timberwolves' guards are very experienced veterans, averaging 13+5 per game.

Visiting Cleveland Cavaliers: Kevin Ollie, Ira Nubell, LeBron James, Carlos Boozer, Ilgauskas.

With the referee's whistle, the game between the Cavaliers and the Timberwolves officially started.

The Cavaliers attacked, LeBron James attacked with the ball, broke through the fake shot and passed it to Carlos Boozer.

Boozer caught the ball and wanted to make a small throw. Unexpectedly, the tall and thin sunspot in front of him, who was a circle thinner than him, stretched out a powerful big hand and directly slapped the basketball out of the court.

Hey, get off your horse.

The first offense was blocked, and Carlos Boozer almost cried without tears. He was ravaged by Yao Ming wantonly in the last game, and Garnett slapped the basketball into the air at the beginning of this game.

Don't bully me, I'm very fierce when I get angry.

"Can you, dare to shoot like this in front of me?"

Kevin Garnett habitually said: "Man, do you want to continue to taste the taste of hot pot, I will let you have enough."

One is the wolf king who has been famous for many years, and the other is a sophomore freshman who has just entered the league for two years. Carlos Boozer couldn't help feeling a little guilty when he saw Garnett's fierce appearance.

Carlos Boozer, who is usually in nightclubs, is scared?

The Cavaliers reorganized the offense, Kevin Ollie received a pass and assisted James to hit a two-pointer.

The Timberwolves organized an offense. Garnett, who was retreating from the backcourt, was like the leader of a pack of wolves, and the two players behind him looked like wolves in a pack of wolves, aggressive.

Sam Cassell comes upfield and Garnett asks for the ball in the low post.

After receiving the pass, Garnett played Carlos Boozer with his back. After several consecutive dribbles, Garnett turned around and dunked very domineeringly. Carlos Boozer wanted to regain the face he lost just now, but he The defense was mediocre, and with Garnett roaring and dunking, the momentum was a little weaker.

Carlos Boozer: Fuck, what just happened, did I get dunked?
Damn, it's so hard for me!
Boozer looked at Ling Bo with an aggrieved expression, as if he was asking for help: Brother, help me.
