Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Target Center Arena, Minnesota.

The Timberwolves have played extremely badly this season, despite star Kevin Love averaging 20+15 double-doubles per game. But so far, the Timberwolves have the worst record in the Western Conference and the worst record in the league.

For the Timberwolves game, Minnesota fans are not very enthusiastic.

Because I always look forward to supporting the Timberwolves, but the last thing I see is the Timberwolves being hanged and beaten by others, which is very uncomfortable.

Recently, the Timberwolves have not won a game, and the four-game losing streak has made Minnesota fans feel that they are not interested in watching the NBA.

However, the attendance rate of the Target Center Arena today was close to 50%, because today the Timberwolves ushered in the opponent of the 76ers.

The 76ers' record this season is also not good, just a little bit better than the Timberwolves.

What's more, the 76ers have just played four consecutive road games, and the Devils will definitely be very tired and in poor form.

This is the opportunity for the Timberwolves, and the fans also felt that the Timberwolves could win today, so they all came to the scene, looking forward to a victory.

"I watched the last 76ers vs. Grizzlies game, and because of the Devil's away game, all the 76ers were out of shape. What's more, we have Love and Pekovic inside, as well as Beasley, 76 The people team is notoriously weak inside, we just restrained the 76ers. This game, we Timberwolves will definitely win.”

"Well, the losing streak can finally be ended."

The game has not yet started, and the fans in the audience have arrived, sitting together in twos and threes, whispering.

Meanwhile, in the Timberwolves locker room.

A group of players were also smug, having experienced a four-game losing streak. Although they were used to losing, the players were still a little depressed. The 76ers were obviously the best punching bag.

Head coach Kurt Rambis walked in, clapped his hands, and said, "We have to win this game today, understand?"

"clear."

The crowd responded.

Kurt Rambis looked at Love and Pekovic: "Kevin, and Nikola (Nikola Pekovic), Michael (Michael Beasley), protect the rebounds, Take advantage of our size and paint to beat the Sixers."

"Don't worry, coach."

"Leave it to us."

The three of them spoke.

The Timberwolves were in high spirits and smug, but the atmosphere in the 76ers locker room was a little dull, and the players were silently preparing for the game.

Consecutive away games consume not only the physical fitness of the players, but also the spirit.

After a few games, plus running back and forth, except for sleeping, they were on the plane for almost half of the time, and they didn't get a good rest at all, and they had to deal with the game, so everyone was very tired.

Especially several main players, such as Qin Hao, Iguodala, Speights.

Qin Hao and Iguodala have played for a long time in these few games, and Speights is the same. Because the 76ers are short of insiders, there are only three insiders in total. Barty is still the kind that is about to retire, and many times inside All have to rely on Speights to fight alone.

Seeing that his teammates didn't speak, the atmosphere was dull, Qin Hao frowned, looked at Iguodala, but found that Iguodala was in the same state, he could only stand up by himself: "Brothers."

Everyone raised their heads and looked at Qin Hao.

Qin Hao took a deep breath and raised his voice: "I know everyone is tired, and I am also very tired, but this is not the reason for us to treat the game negatively. Everyone thought that our mailbox was out of gas, even the bottom one in the league. The Timberwolves dare to look down on us and think they will win today. In my opinion, this is an insult to us, and I can't bear it."

"Yes." Speights was the first to echo, "I can't stand it either."

Some took the lead, and others joined in.

This is really unbearable. What record is the Timberwolves, the last in the West and the last in the league. It is too deceiving to dare to underestimate their 76ers.

"So." Qin Hao continued: "We have to win this game today. We have to tell everyone that even if we have experienced a devil away game, even if we are physically and mentally exhausted, we will never be underestimated. We have to defend our Honor and dignity."

After a speech, the enthusiasm of the teammates was also ignited.

"Yes, no one should take it lightly."

"Even the Timberwolves dare to look down on us. I really thought that the 76ers were easy to bully, and this game must not be lost."

"Gan him..."

Everyone opened their mouths one after another, and their morale was high.

At this time, Coach Luke just came in from the outside, watching this scene, and then looking at Qin Hao, he showed a relieved smile, nodded at Qin Hao, and said, "It's time for us to play."

"Walk."

"Kill the Timberwolves!"

The crowd roared and followed Coach Luke out of the locker room.

When he came outside, the boos came.

But soon the fans in the audience began to frown. Although the 76ers players looked a little tired, they were all in good spirits, not weak.

It's not what they imagined.

Isn't it said that the people of the 76ers are physically and mentally exhausted and have no fighting spirit? Why do their eyes look so scary, like they want to eat people.

"This situation... is not very good."

Some sensitive people have already sensed something bad, and frowned, a little worried about the Timberwolves.

Moments later, the Timberwolves players also came out.

Players came out of the player tunnel, all smug and high-spirited, but when they saw the state of the 76ers, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Coach Kurt Rambis also felt it. He frowned slightly, but he remained calm on the surface, clapped his hands, and said to the next player: "Let's warm up on the court, believe in yourself, we will win."

"Um."

"Definitely!"

A group of people spoke, as if to cheer themselves up, and then walked onto the court to warm up.

When Brewer went up, it was a dunk, and when he fell from the basket, he shook his arms and finally let go of the worry in his heart.

No one on the 76ers side dunked to save energy, but everyone was serious during the warm-up.

After a warm-up, the players from both sides returned to the sidelines.

Coach Luke called the players and began to arrange: "Our inside line is at a disadvantage, so none of you have to grab rebounds. Also, shrink the defense line, it is better to let the opponent shoot a three-pointer than let the opponent play singles in the low post. Qin, You pay attention to control the rhythm, we have to play a little more patiently, and we must strive to score the goals that should be scored.”

Qin Hao nodded in agreement.

The players of the 76ers are not physically strong, so they must pursue the success rate and play efficiently enough, otherwise it will be difficult for them to gain an advantage when they are at a disadvantage in the interior.
