Chapter 598 The Timberwolves Out of Favor
The Timberwolves started their longest winning streak of the season, finishing the rest of March with a perfect record.

The time has come to the last month of the regular season, and the season has officially entered the final stage. The Timberwolves have only 10 games left. Before that, they had achieved a record of 62 wins and 10 losses.

If they continue the winning streak until the end of the season, they can tie the 96 Bulls' 72 wins and 10 losses.

Rarely for a team that has won two straight titles, it's like they never get tired.

The symptoms of the weakness of the two consecutive championship teams are not obvious in them.

It is worth mentioning that the Timberwolves achieved this record when Garnett was absent from more than a dozen games. This makes people even more curious. record?
This will become an eternal mystery. The Timberwolves are destined to be unable to break the Bulls' record this season, and even tying the record is only theoretically possible.

In the first game in April, they met the Phoenix Suns, a powerhouse in the West.

In terms of the pattern in the West, the Suns are no longer in the first group.

This year's West consists of the Timberwolves, Mavericks, and Spurs.

The Timberwolves have won 62 wins, not to mention.

If there is no accident, the Mavericks and Spurs will also get at least 60 wins by the end of the season.

How terrifying is it that there are three 60-win teams in one division?

Some people even assert that this year's championship will definitely be born among these three teams, and whoever can break out of the West will win the championship.

In the Sun's home court, the game is not easy.

Stoudemire jumped to the ball for the Suns, Nash held the ball, this old and solid point guard,

He is a famous reverse growth player in the history of the league, the older he gets, the more demon he gets.

Over the past few years, the main frame of the Suns has stabilized. The main lineup is nothing more than Stoudemire, Nash, Marion, Bell and the more mature Brazilian Lightning Barbosa.

Barbosa cut out from the left wing and received a pass from Shi and made a mid-range shot, which blew the horn of the Suns' offense.

The duel between Garnett and Stoudemire is very interesting. Both of them have outgoing personalities, they are very public, and they ignore everything.

Garnett's mouth is a little bit more broken. He likes to greet Stoudemire's family before launching an attack.

How could the little bully be willing to be insulted by him, he wanted to scold back on the spot, and also wanted to guard against Garnett's attack.

It turned out that Stoudemire was really bad at defense.Garnett doesn't do a good job of dribbling and stepping back, but he just gets swung away.

The fly in the ointment is that Garnett failed to end the offense and missed a shot.

Himien rose to grab an offensive rebound, but was blocked by Marion on the second attack.

The Sun's counterattack was too fast, and Ukic had already made preparations before the game. Even though he had made enough psychological preparations, he still failed to calculate the time correctly.

The indomitable Son of the Wind almost made this goal, if the Timberwolves didn't have a player named Bai Jidong.

Seeing Bai Jidong, Nash gave up his thoughts, passed the ball to Marion in the bottom corner, ran out to catch the ball and reorganized.

Stoudemire came over, took a block next to Nash, and then made a quick cut.

Nash saw the opportunity and gave a clever hit to the ground.

The Bully got the ball and was unstoppable, and Simeon's defense was like a travesty, which only added a vivid backdrop to the scene.

After the dunk, Stoudemire raised his head and yelled that if he beat his chest like Garnett, he would be the second Garnett.

Bai Jidong was very impressed with Stoudemire.

That year, Xiaobawang won the best rookie from Yao Yueban and led the team to the playoffs in the first year.

The rookie game MVP and the performance in the slam dunk contest let people see his incredible talent and the graceful feeling when he dunks.

The body is well-proportioned, the muscle lines are tight, the height of the bounce, the tension of the kick, and the strength of the dunk, everything seems to be natural.

What is even more shocking is that these slam dunk movements, which are common in practice slam dunk contests, in Stoudemire's actual combat, are easy to come by, blowing up with the wind, and the beauty is too beautiful.

At that time, Stoudemire appeared in the paint area, booking the top ten balls, chasing the wind, and in the background, he had not yet had time to take off and could only look up, or his takeoff strength and height were far inferior to his daunting opponents.

Stoudemire's dunk coupled with the commentator's impassioned commentary made each dunk full of passion, making the audience wish they could take the basketball to the court to show off their glory.

Even though there was Wilkins in the front and Kemp in the rain, Stoudemire is definitely unique in the list of violent dunks.

Last year's minimally invasive surgery made people think that a generation of geniuses had died, but he stood up again.

His luck is better than Penny, and his recovery is a miracle. It is this miraculous comeback that allows the Suns to regain their strength and continue to maintain their competitiveness in the West.

The Son of Wind will eventually grow old, and Xiaobawang will be the future master of Phoenix City.

"Amare looks like a fledgling rookie. His performance makes you completely unable to see that he is doing minimally invasive surgery. This is really incredible!" Mike Breen, as the main commentator of this game, he His partner is Dan Marley.

Marley is a famous star of the Suns, and the commentary tends to be biased towards the Suns: "I think the healthy Amare is the number one insider in the league."

The first insider?Stoudemire?

Breen really wanted to hit Marley in the face with a size 45 slipper. How could he say that because Stoudemire is a Suns player?The impartiality of the commentator was eaten by you?It's because of your nonsense and nonsense that there are too many people, so some fans are allowed to watch the game on mute!
Garnett never wanted Stoudemire to dominate him, so he took the initiative to ask Bai Jidong for the ball, wanting to play singles again.

Bai Jidong saw that he had a good chance and had a lot of space, so he gave him the ball.

The two top insiders clashed again, and Garnett was still able to break Stoudemire's defense.

Unlike before, Garnett is no longer obsessed with shooting, but chooses to take a big step to attack the basket.

The benefits of playing a guard from a young age became apparent at this time. Marion gave a lot of confrontation, but Garnett's layup action did not deform, and he put the ball into the basket with a soft touch. A layup that went wrong.

Garnett stood up and complained to the referee: "Sir, where is my cylinder?"

"KG, stop talking." The referee glared at him.

Garnett has already suffered a lot from the referee.

Sometimes, Garnett even suspected that Kahn had bribed the referee and deliberately cheated him, but after thinking about it carefully, it was impossible.

Kahn hated him any more.It is also impossible to do so.

Even if he wanted to, he didn't have the ability.

Only the league and underground casinos can influence the referee.

If there are occasional serious deflection in one or two games, it may be that the referee is involved in underground gambling, but this season the Timberwolves are obviously not popular with referees, and the answer is obvious.

The league also doesn't want the same team to dominate the league all year round. Fans need freshness, and the league also wants to create topics.

But there is no way, the Timberwolves' lineup structure is too young, and they have won the championship for two consecutive years.

However, the average age of the two cornerstone players is only 29.5 years old. Even if all the executives of the league squat in the corner and draw small circles and curse them for injuries, it will not work.

Then you can only use other means, such as letting the referee blow the whistle.

"If Amare's defense is better, I believe he can easily dominate the league. Defense is the biggest stumbling block to his great legend." Breen agrees with the second half of Marley's sentence.

What he disagreed with was that Stoudemire could easily dominate the league with a better defense.

Even if his defense is better, he can't dominate the league. At most, he is a smaller version of Garnett.

The tall version of Garnett can't rule the league, so how can the short version of Garnett rule?
Even though he and Marly had many disagreements, Brin still maintained a good quality.

"Amare should be a No. [-], but he can only play No. [-] under the Phoenix system; similarly, Sean is a No. [-]. In order to cater to the team system, he needs to be No. [-]; in this way, Phoenix's interior defense is of course useless, but fortunately their offense can redeem the loss."

"The premise is, don't run into Minnesota and San Antonio." This is the voice of Brin.

The defense after the Timberwolves confirmed his voice.The high-intensity defense made the Suns' ball turnover difficult.

Nash couldn't find anyone to pass the ball, and he was stuck again.The attack time was tight, so he had to attack alone.

In such a situation, Nash couldn't keep calm. His shot was not stable enough. He swiped around the basket and fell to the basket and was caught by Garnett.

Garnett dared to pass the ball, but Stoudemire violently took the ball from his hands.

Garnett felt pain in his finger, but the referee ignored his pain.

After grabbing the ball, Stoudemire let out a roar, and immediately rose up under the basket. Everyone was impressed by his astonishing explosive power. His arm that soared into the sky fell down, and it was really a thunderbolt dunk.

"Fuck!"

Garnett is on fire again.

Bai already had a premonition, and hurried to Garnett: "Is your hand okay?"

Garnett said: "It seems that unless he breaks my bones, the "Adjudicators" are not going to restrain these "nobles."

"I thought you were used to it, don't you get used to the scale of these guys?" Bai Jidong asked back.

"How can I get used to it? I'm not a masochist! This kind of thing makes no sense. He beat my finger to bleed." Garnett took out the bleeding finger.

Bai Jidong brought him in front of the referee: "Sir, look, isn't this calling a foul?"

"You need to wrap up after the game." The referee tactfully avoided the core problem, and "well-intentioned" helped them suspend the game.

This is called going to jail if the grievance fails.

Garnett wanted to win the sympathy of the referee, but now he is fine, and there is no need to play the game.

The referee's move is really clever, Bai Jidong wants to give him a thumbs up.

Casey is going to have a headache. The Suns have a small lineup. The original matchups on the court are very reasonable: Garnett vs. Stoudemire, Himien vs. Marion, Bai Jidong vs. Raja Bell, all of them Counterpoint height suppression.

Now, in order to keep up with the speed, Simien can only be played as a center and Bai Jidong as a power forward.

"Wow, it's been a long time since I played power forward, I really miss it." Bai Jidong muttered.

　After Durant hit the game-killing three-pointer, his face was expressionless, in stark contrast to Green and Curry, who were so excited that they lost control.He really chose the most difficult path. The difficulty of this path is that no matter how outstanding his performance is, we cannot evaluate him objectively without "he joined the 73-win team".
