vertical and horizontal point guard

Chapter 17
Chapter No.17 Tasting the Fruit of Failure
Le Fu and Al Jefferson had different expressions after hearing this. Although Le Fu looked a little tired, there was a hint of excitement in his expression, while Al's expression was a little cloudy.

Love was not vigorously cultivated by the Timberwolves coaching staff last season. He mostly played as a substitute for Al Jefferson last season.With an average playing time of more than 20 minutes per game, he played an excellent performance last season, scoring 11 points and 1 rebounds.

He almost got the double-double data per game in the season, and he has unlimited potential, and the Timberwolves' attention to him has also greatly increased.This season, Al returned from injury, and his performance on the court is not good. Love may be vigorously cultivated!
Love is a smart person. He has a very high IQ on the basketball court, and he naturally understands that this is a rare opportunity. As long as he can grasp it, he can play his worth!

Al is in a gloomy mood. He knows his own state. After returning from injury, his state has declined seriously. He was not enough deterrent at the basket, but now he has become a colander on the defensive end. It can be said that if he can't If he plays an excellent performance, he is very likely to be reduced to a situation where he can play without the ball!

Many players in the league were in a downturn after returning from injury, and were abandoned by the team management, and placed on the table of other teams as a commodity.

There is no way, the NBA is a business field, and it is difficult not to have rifts between players and teams. There are too few examples like the Spurs and Duncan!

Li Shihao saw the gloomy expression flashing across Al Jefferson's face, and after thinking about it in his heart, he understood what Al was thinking!He left a sentence: "Don't stand around the basket doing nothing anymore, I will find opportunities to pass the ball to you, I hope you can play a role on the offensive end!"

When Al Jefferson heard this, doubts appeared on his dark face. This rookie is willing to pass the ball to him?
Al is a little dazed, are all the current rookies so generous and selfless, are they no longer obsessed with personal data?

Which rookie these days didn't try his best to collect statistics in the first season, took most of the team's shots, worked hard to hone his offensive skills, and worked hard to show his worth in the first season.

No one will not understand the truth of being famous as soon as possible!
Al Jefferson can't understand this rookie in the team. He doesn't know that he was the core of the Timberwolves in the first two seasons. Now it's time for the Timberwolves to rebuild, and he will be an obstacle to his rise!
Afterwards, Li Shihao began to increase the number of individual singles, constantly looking for opportunities to exercise offensive skills on Mo Williams.

Fadeback jumpers, post-up singles, pull-up jumpers... Li Shihao used his offensive methods on Mo Williams in turn, no matter whether he was proficient or not.

Offensive methods are all practiced by shooting in games, no one is born proficient in offensive methods.

But Li Shihao is not attacking blindly. Once the Cavaliers' inside line falls into an empty state, Li Shihao's pass will be passed at the first time. What is waiting for the Cavaliers is the inside line being violated.

In a short period of time, the Timberwolves played a wave of 13:4 climax. The Cavaliers were severely suppressed. Mo Williams was blasted at the first position. As a result, the overall state of the Cavaliers is extremely poor.

After halftime, the score was 56:42, and the Cavaliers fell behind by 14 points and were suppressed.

Because of LeBron James, this game received TNT's national live broadcast treatment, and the Timberwolves once again showed their faces in front of the national audience.

But what the fans watching the game didn't expect was that Li Shihao, as a rookie this year, actually blasted Mo Williams in the first position, completely disrupting the rhythm of the Cavaliers' game.

"Look at the offense and defense of the Cavaliers, it's a mess! Is this the Cavaliers that reached the Eastern Conference finals last year?" Charles Barkley commented, shaking his head, "If this defense is placed in front of the great Sir Charles, I will be alone Blow up their insiders!"

Kenny Smith looked a little cautious. The development of the game in front of him was really unexpected. Mo Williams, an old player who played for six or seven years, was severely suppressed by this year's rookie. Not only could he not contribute offensively, but The defensive end is also frequently exploded, and Li Shihao's offense cannot be prevented at all.

"Mo Williams just participated in the All-Star Game last year, but his performance in this game is really not as high as his All-Star level. His shortcomings and weaknesses are infinitely magnified in this game, which will become a fatal blow for the Cavaliers. hurt!"

Barkley nodded rarely, and said: "Compared with Mo Williams' shortcomings and weaknesses, I am more concerned about this Chinese rookie's extraordinary keen observation skills. Bruce Lee did not communicate with Mo Williams before. But in this game, he has a clear understanding of Mo Williams' offensive methods and defensive characteristics, this vision is really amazing!"

Kenny Smith glanced at the stern Barkley beside him, and said with some amusement: "Isn't our great Sir Charles the greatest power forward? Why does he have such a deep understanding of point guards?"

Barkley took a bite of the huge hamburger, and said vaguely: "How can the great Sir Charles' understanding of the field of basketball be comparable to that of you, a player who has never even won the MVP!"

"Then, why doesn't Sir Charles have this exquisite and gorgeous ring in my hand? This ring is really comfortable to wear every day. It reminds me of the years when I won the championship!" Kenny Smith showed his fingers after hearing this Putting on the ring, he countered in a rather helpless tone.

Barkley's face froze, and he silently began to solve the burger in his hand. Not having a championship is really the biggest regret in his career!

As we all know, the little emperor LeBron James has become more and more powerful as his skills become more versatile, but this season he is far from being versatile enough to be competent for the No. [-] position.

LeBron James' organizational ability may be good, but it is far behind Li Shihao, who specializes in point guards. Li Shihao's accomplishments in how to connect the team and control the rhythm are comparable to LeBron James' few passes !
When the game ended, the Timberwolves defeated the Royal Cavaliers of the little emperor James with a huge advantage of 103:85, and the fans in the audience burst into cheers!

How long has the Timberwolves not tasted such a hearty victory?

Now, after the Timberwolves picked Li Shihao in the summer, they seem to be on the road to rise, defeating the powerful Cleveland Cavaliers in the East by a big score at home. This result is beyond the imagination of countless Timberwolves fans!
The media reporters present were not in the same mood. The strength of the Timberwolves in this game really surprised them. Even the Cleveland Cavaliers could not beat them!

Could it be that the wolves that once roamed the west are about to usher in a new wolf king?
