Garnett also breathed a sigh of relief, very good, as long as Sprewell doesn't mess around, this game will still have to be played.
The Timberwolves continued to attack, and they couldn't afford to lose any more, because every one of their losses was moving the Suns toward 72 wins.
Cassell originally planned to force Nash, but Joe's timely defense in singles made Cassell fall into a double-team.
Cassel then handed the ball to Garnett, but Garnett also had to face the double double-teaming of Ole and Stoudemire.
There was no way, Garnett had to give the ball to Sprewell who was waiting outside the three-point line.
At that time, Sprewell really wanted to fight Li Ang directly, but considering what Garnett said, Sprewell restrained his urge.
Instead of continuing to play singles, he used a hook posture, ready to let the ball pass through mountains, rivers, seas, and crowds, to reach Szczerbiak on the other side of the court.
First of all, Sprewell's choice of passing target is very confusing.
Cassell and Garnett are by his side, he does not pass.
He insisted on passing the ball to Szczerbiak on the other side through a group of people.
Secondly, Sprewell's passing action is also very confusing.
If you want to pass the ball to a teammate so far away, at least you have to choose a fast and accurate way of passing the ball, right?
However, he chose to use the hook action to pass the ball.
Sprewell may have thought that by passing the ball higher, he could safely pass through the crowd.
The ball is indeed passed high, but slow and floating.
Li Ang stared at the basketball on top of his head, and tried to move a few steps, only to find that...
I seem to be able to keep up with the speed of this ball?
Li Ang followed two steps, then jumped with all his might.
Sprewell smiled, such a high ball, it is impossible to be snatched.You young people are still shallow.
But with a smile and a smile, the madman's expression could no longer be mad.
Because he found that Li Ang seemed to be able to intercept this high-altitude shot.
Playing with Li Ang, don't raise your speed.
Because height was never an issue.
"Steal! After the outrageous shot just now, Sprewell made an outrageous pass. It is outrageous. He is outrageous!"
Seeing Li Ang easily steal the ball, Garnett looked at the madman with question marks all over his head.
No... Brother, if you don't want to pass the ball, you can just say it, why make this kind of ball out!
Sprewell really didn't do it on purpose, he was really serious about passing it on.
But... the tortoise players all pass the ball like this.
The Fever has never been a passing guard.
Regardless of the season with the most assists in his career, he averaged 6.3 assists per game.
But that season, he also sent 4.0 turnovers.
Putting 6.3 assists and 4.0 turnovers together, it doesn't look that good.
It's like you say you are 18, but if it is followed by millimeters, it will be meaningless.
It's not that the madman doesn't want to pass, he only has this passing ability.
After completing the steal, Li Ang did not seek credit, but quickly passed the ball to Nash who had already run to the front.
Li Ang's "Bullet Pass" badge played a role at this time.
The pass was accurate and fast.
Nash easily scored a layup, and the Suns counterattacked to widen the point difference again.
So far, the rhythm of the game is completely on the Sun's side.
Defend, take the ball, counterattack, defend, take the ball, counterattack...
The Suns played this game all season, but apart from the Spurs, Pistons and Bulls, few defensive teams seem to be able to contain such an offense.
Sprewell's tortoise-like pass made Li Ang very excited.
The madman is going further and further on the road of gradually turning into a turtle.
Therefore, turning players into turtles will not solve the problem.
What a waste of money.
The most correct decision made by the stupid management of the Timberwolves may be not to give Sprewell an annual salary of tens of millions.
In the next few rounds, Sprewell didn't catch the ball.
Although he didn't want to paddle, it seemed like he was paddling.
Garnett worked hard to bite the score on the offensive end, making a big jumper for a while, and breaking through the inside for a while to force the frame.
The pincer attack of Stoudemire and Ao did not completely restrain the strong desire to win.
But no matter how hard it is, it's hard to beat four hands with two fists, and hard to beat two legs with one stick.
The Timberwolves have been suppressed, and now they urgently need a breaker.
This person can only be a madman.
But under Li Ang's strict defense, the madman struggled to connect the ball, let alone break the game.
Garnett doesn't understand, why is Ang Ang ignoring me today, why is he so interested in Sprewell?
Some things are better not to know.
The reason why Master Tang asked Li Ang to strictly guard against Sprewell, regardless of Garnett, is because Garnett's explosive scoring power is not terrible in the eyes of Master Tang.
Although Garnett's career-high 47 points were scored on the Suns before.
but......
You just let him let go, and he only scored 47 points.
Therefore, there is no need for Li Ang to restrict him at all.
At the end of the first quarter, Garnett was caught on the offensive end and couldn't even turn around.
Now that the Timberwolves are 6 points behind, Garnett knows very well that if he forcibly turns over and shoots a jumper under double-teaming, there is a high probability that he will be beaten.
If they were beaten into a counterattack and the point difference was stretched to 8 points, they would be running behind by double digits in the first quarter.
Just when Garnett was at a loss, Sprewell went to the right side of the three-point line and raised his hand for the ball!
At that moment, Garnett felt as if he saw the light.
Without hesitation, he passed the ball to Sprewell.
After Sprewell received the basketball, he originally wanted to shoot a three-pointer directly.
But seeing Li Ang catching up, he hesitated a little.
So, he temporarily decided to make a fake vote and make a real breakthrough.
However, because Sprewell himself decided to make a breakthrough temporarily, the connection between the false throw and the real breakthrough was very unnatural.
Li Ang saw the right moment, quickly struck out, and successfully knocked out the basketball in Sprewell's hand!
Now the ball was about to be lost as soon as it was in Sprewell's hands, and he was completely locked up by Li Ang.
"Fake Squid!" After being intercepted, Sprewell cursed angrily, and then quickly pursued.
Li Ang rushed to the frontcourt and jumped up to make a layup, but Sprewell didn't seem to be able to stop Li Ang.
But he still tugged on Li Ang's jersey, hoping to drag him off directly.
Needless to say about the ending, Li Ang still made a layup under Sprewell's pull, and there was an additional penalty!
Sprewell thought that 2 points were not enough, so he had to give Li Ang a buy 2 get 1 free.
His impulsive behavior put the Timberwolves in crisis.
Garnett was about to cry, who the hell sent you to punish me! ?
Li Ang lived up to Sprewell's kindness and easily made the ball from the free throw line.
The Suns lead by 9 points!
Seeing this, many people already want to give up.
From this point of view, Li Ang's 72 wins are almost a certainty.
The Timberwolves simply don't have the ability to stop the Suns.
Jordan shook his head crazily. He didn't even know how Sprewell had the face to ask for tens of millions of annual salary.
It can't be that someone has such bad eyesight, right?
In the end, the first quarter also ended while the Suns were completely suppressed.
31 to 23, the Timberwolves were rubbed by the sun on the ground in the first quarter.
During the intermission, Timberwolves general manager and coach Kevin McHale looked at everyone and couldn't speak foul words for a while.
As we all know, McHalemidy, a Minnesota native, is more than seven feet tall, with arms reaching knees, and a beautiful figure.
When he was young, he dominated the NBA with his skills at the basket. Among the power forwards, he had few opponents.Competing with the Lakers of the Magician for hegemony in the alliance, and winning three supreme rings, the limelight was second to none.
As a player, McHale is Liu Bi's.But as a coach, McHale's most talked about is... blah blah blah.
There are records in history. Refrigerator coaches like to let the stars play freely, love three-pointers like their lives, and focus on chicken soup for the soul rather than offense and defense tactics.
Good at taking Deng as the leader, shooting birds at random, the euphemistic name is: multi-directional free three-dimensional attack.
It was a good talk for a while.
Seeing that the general Wulang Wang in the army is in a hard fight, the refrigerator can only look at the lieutenant madman: "You have to find a way to open the situation!"
"Brother Mai, is there any way to help me open up the situation?"
The face of the refrigerator was cheerful: "Wuhe, I hope your hands are warm!"
mad Men:......
The last time I was so speechless was when I listened to you.
To be honest, the coach of the Timberwolves suddenly changed from Philip Sanders to McHale. The players can really feel the difference in ability between the two.
After the intermission, when Li Ang played, he found that everyone in the Timberwolves was in a dazed state.
They weren't stunned, but they were all trying to recall: Just now...what did the head coach arrange?It seems to have said a lot, but it seems that nothing has been arranged!
The Timberwolves attacked for the first time, and Garnett was pinched again as soon as he received the ball.
There was no other way, Garnett had to hand the ball to Sugar Man.
O'Neal immediately rushed back to the basket to stop Olowokandi. Although he failed to block the ball directly, he successfully stopped him with a foul.
Sugar Man's free throw percentage this season is only 59%, which is indeed very accurate compared to Shaquille O'Neal and Da Ben.
But judging from the average level of the league, Sugar Man's free throws also fall into the category of "unreliable".
Sure enough, Olowokandi only made one of two free throws, and the Timberwolves only scored 1 point in this offense.
Now the Timberwolves are in urgent need of chasing points. Relying on such a 1-point chasing is like chasing the goddess sitting in the co-pilot of a Ferrari on three wheels.
Olowokandi couldn't help Garnett break the double-team, and Kassel's attack power was limited after recovering from a serious injury.
Sprewell really became the winner of this game.
The madman also became engrossed. He actually didn't care if the Timberwolves had a round trip, nor did he care if Li Ang won 72 wins.
But he cares about tens of millions of annual salary.
If he was defeated like this, wouldn't his annual salary of tens of millions be in vain?
Madman was also known for his defense when he first entered the league. As long as he defends seriously, he does still have some ability.
This time, the moment Li Ang speeded up to break through after holding the ball, Sprewell took out his hand and actually knocked the ball out of Li Ang's hand!
Li Ang was a little surprised. Since the dribbling attribute was mentioned, Li Ang was rarely directly intercepted by others.
He admitted that he was careless.After all, today, Sprewell hardly caused any trouble for Li Ang.
