legendary point guard

The Golden State Warriors have missed the playoffs for 12 consecutive seasons, which is the longest record in NBA history. You can imagine the pressure on Chris Mullin before the new season.

In order for the team to break this embarrassing record, Chris Mullin fired Montgomery, the head coach last season, and hired Nelson, who had coached the Warriors.

"Mad Scientist" Nelson, as the coach with the second most wins in history, has never led his team to win the O'Brien Trophy, but no one can deny his greatness.

His coaching style is extremely clear, and he integrates offense into the blood of the team. This is exactly what the Warriors do in the new season, and their crazy offensive rhythm has left a deep impression on people.

Let people appreciate another offense-first team besides the Phoenix Suns.

As the leader of the Warriors, Baron Davis has also gotten rid of injuries in the new season. He averaged 23 points, 8 assists and 2.5 steals per game for the Warriors. He is one of the hottest players in the new season.

In the preseason, Baron Davis once embarrassed Lin Sen. Many people who were looking forward to seeing Lin Sen's jokes could not wait for the start of the game.

On the morning of November 15th, ten hours before the evening game, the Timberwolves were training before the game.

Lin Sen passed the ball to Garnett inside, then quickly turned around and ran to the other side.

Jaric's timely screen allowed Linsen to get rid of Ricky Davis's guard, and Garnett immediately passed the ball.

Lin Sen caught the ball and shot, and the ball went into the basket cleanly.

"Bang! Bang! Well done. KG, you can be a little faster. Wood, can't you be closer or farther?" Devin Casey shouted to the court.

"This is a buy one, get two meters free mid-range shot." Lin Sen joked.

"Wooden, if you can be so confident about your mid-range shooting, then I will be happy to listen to you tell these terrible jokes every day."

Lin Sen glanced at Garnett helplessly: "OK, KG, you have to believe me, one day I will be able to practice this damn mid-range shot well."

"I hope I can see that day." Garnett said with a smile.

After the morning training ended, Devin Casey once again organized the whole team to watch the new season Warriors game video.

Lin Sen was replaying the preseason game against the Warriors. That game was Lin Sen's first setback.

Thinking about it now, Lin Sen can still remember how strong and powerful Baron Davis's big ass was that day.

At noon, the NBA officially announced the Most Valuable Player for the second week of the new season. Lin Sen, who was nominated in the first week, was nominated again, while Garnett won the Western Conference second week after being nominated in the first week.

most valuable Player.

At the same time, the league officially announced the latest rookie rankings.

After ranking second in the first week of the regular season, Lin Sen once again ranked second among rookies. Although this list is only a reference, it still caused strong dissatisfaction among Timberwolves fans and Lin Sen fans.

Ranked first is Brandon Roy of the Portland Trail Blazers, the seventh pick. The Trail Blazers' record of 3 wins and 4 losses in the new season is far inferior to the Timberwolves' 5 wins and 1 loss.

Moreover, although Brandon Roy was able to contribute 16.4 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal in the first seven games per game, Linsen averaged 22 points, 13 assists, 4 steals and 5 rebounds per game.

The data is undoubtedly much worse than the data.

Therefore, Timberwolves fans and Lin Sen fans criticized the official ranking as unfair.

There were many objections on the NBA’s official website message board——

"I think the person who ranked this ranking must have a head full of shit. Everyone can see that Wood is a hundred times better than Brandon."

"Wood is only ranked second? Does he think that Wood's data in each game is missing a decimal point? I think there is something wrong with my eyes or there is something wrong with the head of the bullshit expert who ranked it."

…

Of course, there are voices of opposition and voices of support——

"His data, yes, it is indeed outstanding, just like a superstar's data, but outstanding data does not mean that his strength can really match the data. Whether it is defense or offense, he is far inferior to Brandon.

outstanding."

"He has players like Kevin Garnett who can help his teammates become better, but Brandon does not. Put Brandon in Minnesota. I believe Brandon can easily contribute 20+7+7 per game.

Super data.”

"Wood is so different from Brandon. He should improve his poor mid-range shooting. Oh, he better worry about his game tonight. BD will let him know how bad his defense is."

…

David Stern did not expect that a rookie ranking would also cause quite a stir, which gave David Stern an unexpected surprise.

For David Stern, as long as it is beneficial to the league, nothing else matters. Lin Sen is also a figure he is optimistic about in the future of the league, and Lin Sen's performance at the beginning of the new season is indeed outstanding, even far exceeding his performance.

expected.

So David Stern is happy to see these controversies because they bring more exposure.

Only with constant exposure will more people know about it, and Lin Sen is obviously better than many people in this regard.

Coupled with Lin Sen's yellow skin, his position as a point guard and his pleasing style of play, Lin Sen is destined to become more popular after vigorous packaging and publicity.

Originally, the Timberwolves versus the Warriors were an ordinary game that was not considered a strong dialogue, so it received more attention.

However, Devin Casey and Kevin McHale were a little unhappy because McHale received a call about Chris Mullin on the day of the game.

During the phone call, Chris Mullin directly expressed his thoughts on whether the Timberwolves could trade Linsen to the Warriors.

McHale clearly told Mullin that Linson was not for sale, but this did not dispel the Warriors' desire to covet him.

"Wood is a great little guy and I admire him very much. If I were to coach him, I would make him even better than he is now." Nelson said in an interview before the game.

This made Devin Casey very angry. Nelson said in front of everyone that his coaching ability was lacking.

Devin Casey smiled in front of the media and responded: "Of course, him coaching Wood will make Wood better, but in my opinion, the better he said is only that Wood's score will go straight to 30 points.

Even if he wins the scoring title, I have no doubt, but one thing I believe is that Wood will completely stay away from the ranks of top players because he will not teach Wood any defensive skills at all."

Nelson, who has been in the league for more than 20 years, didn't care at all when faced with Devin Casey's counterattack: "Isn't the offense good? He has unparalleled offensive talent. In my opinion, they are killing it."

His heart, I know he wants to attack rather than pass the ball, and a good coach will make him even better."

However, what is a little surprising is that Baron Davis did not have any comments on Lin Sen, just as usual.

"BD's Confidence" - the "San Francisco Chronicle" is even planning to use this title after the Warriors' victory.

At eight o'clock in the evening on November 15th, Kevin Garnett and Latvian handsome boy Biedrins stood in the center circle waiting for the whistle to sound.

Lin Sen glanced at Baron Davis next to him and focused on the ball in the referee's hand.

The competition is about to begin!
