Chapter 2 Twenty-Eight
After halftime, the Timberwolves not only overtook the score, but also made use of continuous strong play from the inside, coupled with the three-point firepower from the outside, both inside and outside, the offensive firepower suddenly increased, and instead suppressed the Dallas Mavericks.
The fans in the Target Center cheered unceasingly, and many fans even put up placards prepared in advance, showed them, and shouted loudly, cheering for the home team they supported.
The Mavericks players on the field heard the tide of cheers coming from all directions, and many people's moods were affected, and they began to become restless.
The madness of the Timberwolves fans at home finally affected the players in Dallas. They did not feel this home effect when the wind was downwind, but when the team was in a headwind, they fully felt the "adverse reaction" brought by this crazy home court. ".
After two quarters of hard work in the first half, the two teams contributed 56:49. The Timberwolves led by 7 points, and the pressure was on the Dallas Mavericks.
During the intermission, Li Shihao had a good deal with a group of "special" guests in the Target Center.
Timberwolves' playoffs are very popular with domestic fans. With Yao Ming injured and Yi Jianlian in decline, Li Shihao's Timberwolves are gradually becoming the focus of domestic fans and have gathered a large number of fans.
The base of fans is not small. In the process of Li Shihao's rise like a dark horse, many black fans appeared. Fortunately, Li Shihao's performance has remained stable and did not disappear like a meteor. Black turned pink.
In order to take care of the emotions of the domestic fans, the National Sports Station broadcast the playoffs of the Timberwolves. For the three home games in Minnesota, the National Sports Station sent two experienced commentators, Zhang "Rational" and Su Qun, to go together. Overseas, the game is broadcast live.
Zhang Lili is very optimistic about Li Shihao. Teacher Zhang Lili, who came from the 90s and [-]s, has a special feeling for the national basketball. No one does not want the country to have new excellent basketball seedlings.
Although Li Shihao studied at a university in the United States, he grew up in China since he was a child. He is a Chinese descendant in his blood, and he is much more upright than Joe Alexander in the previous two years.
However, Joe Alexander is handsome because of his mixed blood, but Li Shihao really can't compare with others.
However, Mr. Zhang Lili is not such a vulgar person. What he pays attention to is the real skills. In his opinion, Li Shihao, who has achieved these things in his rookie season, has a great future, and he may go further than Yao Ming Some.
Domestic basketball lacks an outstanding guard, otherwise Yao Ming would not be so tired playing in the World Championships and Olympics. Now Weiping Bryant is very happy to see an excellent guard seedling.
Teacher Zhang Lili, who often explains the Timberwolves games, did not forget to emphasize that he is a die-hard fan of Li Shihao while explaining the game, which provoked many netizens and fans to comment with a smile: "Aren't you always a die-hard fan of the volute? What's your position?" So unsteady!"
However, there is a new atmosphere in domestic basketball. Whether it is fans or these basketball seniors, they are all happy to see it. Who wants to watch people from other countries play every day? Anyone will be delighted.
Teacher Zhang Lili came all the way to Minnesota to broadcast the game live. As the landlord, Li Shihao naturally had a good conversation with Zhang Lili, and said that he would invite all the staff of the National Sports Station to have dinner together after the game. Happy.
Naturally, this point was collectively cheered by the staff of the National Sports Station, and Li Shihao's image in their hearts was instantly fuller.
"What a kind and kind big brother!"
The halftime break was very short. After chatting for a while, Li Shihao and Mr. Zhang Lili returned to the bench, ready to wait for the start of the second half of the game.
At the beginning of the second half, Timberwolves head coach Frank Vogel did not put Li Shihao and Marc Gasol in the first place, and let Kevin Love, Corey Brewer and Darko Milicic play together. The effect is actually not bad. Although Li Shihao's outside firepower has dropped a lot after Li Shihao left the field, as far as the interior is concerned, the Timberwolves' offensive ability has not been affected. Love's mid-range shooting at the basket feels extremely soft, and can also provide Timberwolves with sufficient firepower. .
In the first half, Timberwolves coach Frank kept Kevin Love on the bench and refused to let him play. Instead, he gave Darko Milicic more playing time, which made Kevin Love anxious.
But whenever Love turned to head coach Frank Vogel with questioning eyes, the latter always looked indifferent, as if saying, "Don't worry, there will always be your chance to play!"
In this way, Kevin Love was almost on the bench for nearly two quarters, and he got 5 minutes in the entire first half, which made Kevin Love suffocate. He is the team's starter. The power forward only played for less than 5 minutes. He watched that sultry kid from Darko show off his power at the opposite basket, but he could only hold back off the court, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
After head coach Frank Vogel put Love on the court, the latter's desire to attack rose to its peak. He didn't score a single point tonight!
Love didn't mean to be polite, and asked Ryan Gomez for the ball again and again, but the latter didn't refuse, obviously knowing that Love was overwhelmed.
As soon as Love got the ball, he put on a stance and started playing singles. The Mavericks' substitute insider Bass couldn't prevent Love's offensive at all. Regardless of Love's rebounding statistics this season, he has always been the highest in the team. Other statistics have always been It's nothing special. In fact, Love's offensive ability is not bad, but the Timberwolves' possession of the ball is not easy. For a team, dual-core is already the upper limit. Li Shihao and Marc Gasol's combination of inside and outside It is currently the most suitable team building combination.
Love's appearance was indeed quite hot. The situation of the Dallas Mavericks was already unstable, and the suffocated Love played wildly again, defeating the Mavericks' substitutes.
Mavericks coach Carlisle couldn't sit still. He quickly replaced the team's main lineup. He didn't dare to rest the team's main players. If they rested, the team would lose more points. In the future, the hole dug will be too big.
