Chapter 213 Garnett Pulling Hips
But Li Qi is not the kind of person who stares at his teammates and spouts trash talk when his teammates don't perform well.On the Timberwolves side, Cassel passed the ball to Garnett on the right. Garnett pulled the shot and missed. Fortunately, Garnett's touch on the Timberwolves side was also bad enough, but the Trail Blazers were still leading.
However, the Madman was replaced by Barry because of his status, but Barry's coming up meant that Alan Houston was liberated. Sprewell was old, but he could still guard against it to some extent, but Barry really had to do his best. There was no way their family had the blood of the brush.
Cassel still walked in, and continued to shoot after turning his back. This is his special skill, and it is also a skill that guards in Jordan's era talked about most. But does it really have any practical value, except that it consumes more energy?
The ball was hit, and the rebound was taken by the Blazers, but the Blazers' offense, the new Barry, didn't make a shot in the open, and the two sides started a fight.
However, at the end of the first quarter, the Blazers were still in the lead. They scored 34 points in this quarter, and the Timberwolves had 27 points.
The Timberwolves did not allow Li Qi to score double-digit points in a single quarter, but Li Qi's 9 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds and 2 steals were still enough to give the Blazers the lead.
The reason why the Blazers scored 34 points was not because of the strength of the starters, but because Okur, who came off the bench, received a pass from Li Qi and hit two three-pointers. Milicic went down because of his physical strength.
Okur is really a treasure for the Blazers this season. His flak-like style of play is seamless for the Blazers' lineup.Therefore, if the offseason is as expected, Portland should renew his contract. An insider with a relatively unique style of play like Okur will not be very expensive. If this person is in the small ball era, 2000 million a year is an easy thing.
In the second quarter, the Timberwolves replaced Hoiberg and other substitutes, but Szczerbiak was not seen. The opponent seemed to be injured in the series against the Kings and needed to rest for a few games. This is very pessimistic for the Timberwolves.
The Trail Blazers opened the scoring account at the beginning of the second quarter. Blake passed the ball to Diaw on the right. Diaw received the ball at the top of the arc. Trendon Hassel was still very active in defense. Diaw swayed in front of him.
Li Qi cheered for his teammates on the bench. Although the Timberwolves lost Szczerbiak, the other main players were still there. This game was not so easy for the Blazers.
In the Timberwolves' offense, Cassel didn't try to force Blake. He gave the ball to Hoiberg at the top of the arc. Hoiberg faced Barry, dribbled the ball a few steps to the left, hit the inside, and handed it to Garnett.
The reason why the Timberwolves fell behind in the first quarter was because they made too many unforced mistakes. Li Qi seized this opportunity to fight to the death. Counterattack is the Blazers' sharpest weapon.
Blake dribbled the ball to the front, Cassel took the initiative to press, Dale Davis came from behind and made a screen for Blake, firmly blocked Cassel, Blake rushed to the penalty area at the fastest speed, Garnett and Elvin Johnson wanted to double-team him, but Blake saw Barry, who was unguarded in the right corner, and passed the ball, Duang, but Barry missed the shot.
Fortunately, the rebound was from the Trail Blazers, and Blake received a pass from the left. He took the ball and dribbled to the right, and chose a one-step jump shot inside the three-point line. Cassel didn't expect that Blake would play like this. Blake scored two points for the Blazers. 27:38. This game has gone in the direction of Hua.
Cassel touched his bald head, this is a bit difficult to deal with, if it wasn't for the different jersey numbers, the alien really thought it was the white devil Bibby who just threw the ball in front of him.
But soon the Timberwolves took advantage of Garnett's high shot to score two points. They didn't give up, 29:38, but Garnett didn't seem very happy. In the first quarter, he made 8 of 3 and scored 6 points with a high shot.
However, the Trail Blazers, after leading too much, started to wave again. It is the same virtue as the series against the Grizzlies. The Timberwolves are not the Grizzlies.
When Szczerbiak was unable to play, another white man stood up.
Garnett's touch is still very poor, but he still helps the team a lot on the defensive and organizational ends, especially rebounding. This guy is really crazy.
The CIC king hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the Timberwolves pulled the score to only 8 points. With more than eight minutes left in the game, Li Qi and the starters began to play.
Li Qi came up, Trendon Hassel continued to let him go, he still made a decisive shot, Duang hit the ball again, the rebound was picked up by the Timberwolves, they started a fast break again, Alan Houston appeared in the position where he had just made a three-pointer, Hoiberg passed the ball, Duang unfortunately missed this shot.
The rebound fell directly into Li Qi's hands. Li Qi pushed forward with the ball. Trendon Hassell stuck to Li Qi to prevent the opponent from rushing up. Li Qi passed the ball to the madman. It's like that.
Cassel fed the ball to Garnett again. Garnett was on the right side, holding the ball away from Maggette and rushing to the basket. Milicic made up for it. Timberwolves No. 21 chose a hook, but the ball was not scored. He still continued his poor touch in the first quarter.
