NBA: Best point guard

Chapter 258

Timberwolves starting lineup point guard Stephen Marbury, shooting guard Doug West, small forward Tom Gugliotta, power forward Kevin Garnett, center Dean Garrett.

In their lineup, small forwards, power forwards, and point guards all score in double figures, so in terms of strength, they are not on any team.

But as far as their current performance is concerned, there must be a problem with the running-in of the team. Some players cannot have a chemical reaction with the team, so the performance is not high or low.

With the whistle of the referee, the game began.

Mutombo hit the ball to Zhao Qiang, and Zhao Qiang organized the 76ers to attack.

Marbury quickly came up to defend.

Marbury has always regarded Zhao Qiang as his biggest opponent in life.

So as soon as Zhao Qiang made a basketball, he immediately defended.

Zhao Qiang has played against Marbury, so he is very clear about Marbury's characteristics. After dribbling, he retreated and suddenly accelerated to the left, then immediately turned to the right and threw Marbury away.

Marbury was stunned, and Zao Qiang's change of direction was faster. Compared with when the two of them met at that time, the current beam speed was even faster.

Marbury didn't react at all just now, and was passed directly.

Zhao Qiang passed Marbury, and then made an easy mid-range shot.

To be honest, the current situation makes Marbury a bit unacceptable. It is Zhao Qiang's personal strength to get rid of Marbury, which is a bit too much. Marbury is a bit unable to accept the opponent he believes. up.

Gugliotta quickly shouted, "Stephen, don't be in a daze, you have to defend yourself, understand!"

Marbury's behavior caused some dissatisfaction with his teammates.

He also quickly realized that he really shouldn't be in a daze in such an important game.

Then the Timberwolves attacked, Marbury dribbled and Zhao Qiang came up to defend.

Because Zhao Qiang has sufficient physical strength, basically his defense will choose to use a half-court press defense.

Just after halftime, Marbury posted it up, which made Marbury feel very uncomfortable.

You use such a strong defense as soon as you come on the court. I really don't know what your name Zhao Qiang means?

Marbury kept trying to break through, but Zhao Qiang kept squeezing Marbury's dribbling space. In the end, Marbury couldn't dribble the ball at all, so he could only hold the ball in his arms to prevent Zhao Qiang from taking it away. .

The other players of the Timberwolves rushed up to respond, and Marbury barely passed the ball to Gugliota.

Gugliota still has something, put the basketball in the basket through the screen.

Zhao Qiang continued to organize the 76ers to attack.

Marbury took a step back this time, and he couldn't get too close to Zhao Qiang. If he got too close, he would definitely be passed by the other party.

Zhao Qiang advanced step by step, while Marbury retreated step by step.

This scene made people feel very funny, as if Marbury was afraid of Zhao Qiang.

Seeing that Zhao Qiang had almost advanced and was near the three-point line, he immediately made a fake move to break through. Marbury stepped back to defend, and then Zhao Qiang immediately stepped back and shot a three-pointer. Swipe across the sky and hit the basket.

It's really not too easy to beat Marbury.

Although he was defeated by his subordinates, Zhao Qiang didn't understand why he was so afraid of him.

The problems with two consecutive balls appeared on Marbury, which made Gugliota, who is now the core of the team, very upset.

Quickly came up and said to Marbury: "Cheer up, buddy, our team still needs you, the game has just started, and it's not like we can't win."

The Timberwolves continued to attack. Marbury passed the ball just after halftime, and he was really impressed by Zhao Qiang's oppressive defense just now.

That kind of defense really made him a little breathless, so he decided to pass the ball directly.

Gugliotta made a match with Garnett, and then Garnett hit the board.

I have to say that Garnett has already shown his talent at this time, and he is really strong.

This is why Garnett can become the core of the Timberwolves after a while and sign a super contract.

Under such circumstances, Big Ben was indeed suppressed by Garnett, because Garnett has always been a player who plays with his brain.

Daben's basic skills are relatively rough in all aspects. If Daben can hone his skills more, then he will definitely not be weaker than Garnett.

And Daben is a very flexible swing position, he can play both the 4th position and the 5th position.

Zhao Qiang continued to attack, and Marbury was concentrating on his defense.

It's just that such a new infusion has no effect. After all, there is a gap in strength, and Zhao Qiang easily passed Marbury.

Then score easily.

In the situation caused by Marbury's omission, his teammates came to make up the defense. Although they made up the defense, they couldn't fill the vacancy of the omission.

Then the head coach of the Timberwolves had no choice but to replace Marbury first. This guy's mentality collapsed and he couldn't continue playing on the court.

It's just that Marbury himself is not very good at organizing the team's offense. He relies on himself to break through and cause damage. If there is really no chance, he will choose to pass the ball, but this is the case when he really has no chance. Under the circumstances, whenever there is a little chance, Marbury will choose to do it alone, and the name of the lone wolf has gradually begun to emerge.

After Marbury was replaced, the Timberwolves' offense played a little more vigorously, and they would not be beaten helplessly.

At the beginning, their defense was directly hit with holes. After changing players, they were able to defend the 76ers' offense a little bit.

But they couldn't prevent the improvement of the 76ers' overall momentum.

After all, the 76ers have now defeated many strong teams and have maintained a winning streak. The momentum of the entire team is unmatched by other teams, especially a mid-range team like the Timberwolves.

The momentum of the 76ers basically overwhelmed the entire Timberwolves, and the Timberwolves were not powerless to fight back. At least Garnett had a good performance.

TT commentator Smith explained: "This game can be regarded as a duel between two of the more promising freshmen in their draft this year, but it is obvious that Marbury's strength is a little bit worse."

"Judging from this game, Zhao has the overall upper hand, and after the 76ers have fought against strong teams during this period, the whole team seems to have undergone a great transformation. They are no longer like A rookie team."
