basketball myth

The big score of 2 to 1 gave the Timberwolves an advantage at home. The occurrence of this situation shocked countless fans.

Before, everyone thought that the powerful Spurs would probably sweep the Timberwolves directly, and even if things went wrong, they could easily resolve the battle with a score of four to one.

Who would have thought that it was the Timberwolves who were aggressive and took the lead in winning the second game, with a strong tendency to rush into the next round.

As a result, at this moment, the public opinion of the majority of fans finally gradually showed a major tilt. People began to compare the Timberwolves and the Spurs on almost the same level, and no longer discussed the issue of who is stronger and who is weaker.

Fortunately, the playoffs have only been played for three games, and the Spurs are not without opportunities. As long as they work hard to win the next game, there is still hope to regain the initiative.

And just when the Timberwolves and Spurs may be locked in a tough battle, the playoff opponent the winner of the two will face in the next round is already quite obvious and is about to be revealed.

The Oklahoma City Thunder currently defeated the Denver Nuggets with a strong score of 3-0 and almost entered the second round of the playoffs with one foot in front.

Therefore, some players in the Thunder team were even proudly looking forward to the next round of games. When they quickly learned that the current Spurs team had suffered a lot in front of the Timberwolves, they next

After the first round opponent may be the Minnesota Timberwolves, I can't help but feel even more excited.

Especially their head guard Westbrook, who is very much looking forward to it and is almost gearing up. He also told the media early that he hopes Li Feng and the Timberwolves can successfully enter the second round of the playoffs.

Acting as their Thunder counterpart.

Of course, this is not a friendly support for Li Feng and the Timberwolves. His main purpose is to win back face and regain his position in front of Li Feng.

Because during the regular season, he thought he had formed a bad relationship with Li Feng, and was persecuted by Li Feng several times. In addition, he was overshadowed by Li Feng, and even had problems with the All-Stars.

It also made him resentful. Therefore, he has been very unhappy.

He was going to let out all the grievances he had been holding in for almost a season and let Li Feng know how miserable he would be if he offended him. He didn't care about the mentality of the opponents Denver Nuggets players at this time and directly wanted to cause Li Feng in advance.

attention.

The majority of good people, especially the crazy media, like news like this the most. They threw all Westbrook's statements in front of Li Feng who was preparing for the fourth playoff game early and asked what was so special about Li Feng.

idea.

But Li Feng felt quite bored with the reporters' questions and Westbrook's invitation to fight from afar.

He just told the media that he hoped Westbrook would not be happy too early, so as not to encounter the Denver Nuggets' desperate counterattack and become a big laughing stock, but he would follow him unceremoniously to watch the fun.

As for his current opponent, the Spurs, he deliberately said that it is too early to talk about the next round of playoffs. The Spurs are very strong, and their previous two wins were a bit of a fluke. He tried his best to bring various advantages to the Spurs.

He has such a high hat and is unwilling to reveal the Timberwolves and his true inner thoughts at all, which really disappointed the media again.

\\He tried hard to stop making the arrogant remarks he had at the beginning of the season and become smarter.

Therefore, he is not willing to take the initiative to stir up the Spurs' desperate nerves, and it is better to help cool down the situation. He simply said that the Timberwolves won two games because of luck, just to try to paralyze the Spurs.

But does he really think so in his heart? Absolutely not. In the team, he and his teammates have long established a goal, which is to work hard to defeat the Spurs and enter the next round. Now that we have entered the playoffs

, of course they have to exert 100% of their energy so that they can have a clear conscience.

…

One day later, Game 4 of the playoffs between the Timberwolves and the Spurs will be played again.

The atmosphere at the target center was even more exciting than the previous one.

That's the way fans are, the more expectations the team gives them, the more excited and supportive they become.

Li Feng's support group of Chinese friends has also grown rapidly. Many Chinese people living in Minneapolis and even other places in Minnesota have rushed over to witness Li Feng's miracle in the playoffs.

The great Yao of the past was not as mature, hot, and even magical as he was when he first entered the playoffs. Therefore, Li Feng has already made people unconsciously and instantly have more expectations and love for him.

For this game, even the league’s boss, Mr. David Stern, came with his assistants.

This unexpected situation made a small group of people who hated Li Feng immediately say sourly: Li Feng's backstage came to specially escort him, which proved that the Spurs were really in danger.

David Stern seemed very high-profile and didn't care at all about the attention of the media and the audience. He sat in the audience with a smile on his face, as if he really wanted to watch the game seriously.

As for this extremely tough old man, Li Feng quite liked him.

Therefore, he wanted to work harder to play a good game so that David Stern would be satisfied and then be able to provide him with more conveniences and benefits. This was not because he wanted to sincerely embrace him, but on the contrary, he was prepared to let David

·Stern took the initiative to come over and support him.

Of course, these are just some episodes outside the competition.

In the fourth playoff game, the Spurs worked very hard. If they can win this game, the next scene will be slightly easier, but if they fail again, they will be immediately pushed to the edge of the cliff.

superior.

Therefore, they changed their defensive posture against Li Feng as soon as the game started.

Wasn't it difficult for them to limit Li Feng's offense in the previous games, so they simply don't want to continue to strengthen their defense against Li Feng now. That requires too much manpower and energy, and is too difficult and difficult to obtain.

Good results. They immediately began to work hard to cut off the various connections between Li Feng and his teammates, and forcibly isolated Li Feng.

They believe that no matter how strong Li Feng's personal ability is, it will be much harder to fight alone if he loses contact with his teammates.

The following facts proved that the Spurs' new defensive strategy was really effective.

When the Timberwolves game started, Li Feng took the initiative to attack for a while, and then tried to hand the ball over to his teammates, but he suddenly discovered that it was difficult for him to do this.

It shouldn't be too difficult for him to continue scoring on his own, but his teammates have been cut and surrounded by the Spurs and cannot attack smoothly.

The way the Spurs defended him at this time, they were more concerned about restricting his passing and controlling the ball. The intensity of defense against his scoring was only maintained above a normal level.

Li Feng tried to distribute the ball and control the team, hoping to let his teammates immediately attack, but he tried several times, but failed. The other teammates of the Timberwolves were severely restricted, and the Spurs players were working extremely hard.

Maintain this weird defensive posture.

Soon, Li Feng realized the seriousness of this problem, but there was no good solution.

With no other choice, he had to regain his scoring weapon and barely maintain the team's scoring firepower. As for him, he might collapse from exhaustion, and he would never be able to strengthen the connection with his teammates, so he could only take the first step.

That's one step.

Facing the Spurs' new defensive situation, other Timberwolves players also felt very strenuous and felt a little out of their depth. They were all trying hard to think of ways to struggle out of such a dangerous situation.

Therefore, in the fourth game, a confrontation gradually emerged between the Spurs and the Timberwolves, where the Spurs and the Timberwolves were tactically arranging and dismantling the situation. However, the Timberwolves seemed to be missing a move, and it was difficult to easily solve and get rid of the difficulties for a while.

For the rest of the game, it depends on whether the Spurs players can maintain the cutting and enveloping defensive tactics for a long time. Or whether the Timberwolves players can free themselves from it in time.

In addition, there is another big variable in the game, and that is whether Li Feng can really persevere on his own and defeat the Spurs by himself without relying on his teammates at all.
