legendary point guard

"The Timberwolves may regret today's choice one day in the future, but they certainly won't at this moment. Wood Lin's future looks to be more star-like than most people. This is inherent, so I think Minnesota has done

A good choice.”

Kenny Smith said with a smile.

"What I'm more interested in is Wood Lin's speech. He said that facts will prove many things, such as vision. This sentence is so right. Those who have criticized him must remember this piece of wood.

,Kenny, I think one person must be very angry at this moment."

Charles Barkley turned his head and looked at Kenny Smith.

"Is there someone?"

"Yes, Michael must be very angry. He is one of the rare people who has publicly commented on Wood Lin, and I know what kind of character he is."

Buckley looked proud.

Michael Jordan in the Bobcats' preparation room couldn't help but cursed when his friend Charles Barkley said: "Damn fat pig."

Kevin McHale looked at Lin Sen wearing a baseball cap on the stage and smiled.

He expects Lin Sen to become a powerful helper for Garnett.

Danny Ainge in the Celtics preparation room showed a disappointed look. He originally had a glimmer of hope that the Timberwolves would give up on Lin Sen.

But it didn't work out, and the Timberwolves still picked up the rookie Lin Sen he expected.

"Forget it, that's all we can do, then agree to the Portland deal."

Danny Ainge rubbed his temples and said.

The assistant wrote Brandon Roy's name on the stationery.

"Then it was the Boston Celtics' turn to select the seventh overall pick. According to rumors, they wanted to trade up the pick before the draft, but failed." Kenny Smith said.

Barkley on the side nodded: "Yes, that's good. They also like that piece of wood, but unfortunately the Timberwolves, who have the same record as them, are ranked ahead of them, so they seek to trade up, but unfortunately no one is willing.

But there are still good rookies among the remaining players."

"For example, Brandon Roy, or 'Little Maddie' Rudy Gay, how will the Celtics choose? Let's wait and see."

Just as Kenny Smith finished speaking, David Stern on the stage read out the Celtics' choices.

"Sure enough, they chose Brandon Roy, which was a good choice." Barkley said with a smile.

At this time, Lin Sen also walked into the Timberwolves' preparation room.

"I don't want to hear all about your scandals in the summer."

Kevin Garnett looked at the rookie Lin Sen in front of him and said.

McHale smiled: "Lin, you need to represent the team in the summer league. This is the beginning of your integration into the NBA. I hope to see you maintain a good figure before the start of the new season training camp."

"That's no problem." Lin Sen said confidently.

"Oh, the Celtics chose to trade." Barkley's voice came from the TV.

The Portland Trail Blazers sent Stephon Marbury's cousin Trafair, former shot-blocking leader Ratliff and a 2008 second-round pick.

Boston gave away rookie Brandon Roy, who had just been picked with the seventh overall pick, as well as the team's former All-Star centers LaFrentz, Dan Dickau and some cash.

"This is a big deal, and the deal just now seems to be just a small deal."

Lin Sen stared at the TV, listening to Kenny Smith's laughter.

During the trial training, he and Brandon Roy participated in trial training in three places with the Timberwolves and Trail Blazers Boston.

From his point of view, Brandon Roy is an outstanding guy, but it is a pity that the two have no record of direct confrontation in the NCAA.

Now Roy has gone to the Trail Blazers, and the Trail Blazers and Timberwolves are also in the Northwest Division.

This means that the two will have the opportunity to play against each other at least four times every season.

Just when Lin Sen was thinking about this, the Houston Rockets selected Rudy Gay with the eighth overall pick.

"Oh, Houston has made money. Rudy's physical fitness is amazing. He was once considered a candidate for the No. 1 pick, but he still has a lot to learn. Being with T-MAC is a good learning experience for him.

Opportunity." Barkley, who once played for the Rockets, said with emotion.

However, this supposedly lucrative selection did not last long, because after the Grizzlies selected short guard Kyle Lowry with the 24th pick, Rudy Gay switched clubs.

The Rockets sent Rudy Gay and Swift, who signed last year, to the Grizzlies in exchange for defensive powerhouses Shane Battier and Kyle Norry.

This trade is far more exciting than the multi-player trade between the Celtics and Trail Blazers.

But this is not what Lin Sen cares about. He is more concerned about his future with the Timberwolves.

Minneapolis is the largest city in Minnesota in the United States. It is located in the southeastern part of Minnesota, across both banks of the Mississippi River, with an area of ​​142.5 square kilometers and a population of nearly 380,000, accounting for more than half of Minnesota's population.

It borders St. Paul to the east and forms the famous Twin Cities with St. Paul, the capital of Minnesota. People living here come from five continents, but one-third of the Asians live below the horizontal line.

This place is not as remote as imagined, and it ranks among the top in the United States in terms of finance, culture and transportation.

When Lin Sen got off the plane, there were a large number of people at the airport pick-up area to welcome him, which made Lin Sen feel warm.

The Minneapolis media "Star Tribune" even used "The Wood Arrives" as the headline of the newspaper that day.

All Timberwolves fans are looking forward to it, hoping that Lin Sen will bring hope to the Timberwolves' revival.

The Timberwolves' ticket sales for next season have increased significantly from the moment the draft began.

The Timberwolves provided Lin Sen with a small two-story apartment in Minneapolis. The small apartment was a 20-minute drive from the Target Center Arena. It was not too far or too close, but Lin Sen was very worried.

Satisfied with his temporary residence.

After the draft, the summer league began, and Lin Sen represented the Timberwolves in the Las Vegas Summer League.

Linsen started every game in the seven games, averaging 20.5 points, 8.3 assists, 6.5 rebounds and 4 steals per game, leading the Timberwolves to 5 wins and 2 losses in seven summer league games.

Excellent results.

Linsen was also selected to the Las Vegas Summer League All-Pro team.

What's slightly worse is that he averaged 3.4 turnovers and 3.2 fouls per game in seven games, and his shooting percentage is not ideal. His too fancy passing directly leads to an increase in turnovers. His thin body puts him in a passive position on the defensive end because

Even though he is in a passive defensive position, he still actively defends, which directly leads to the high number of fouls he commits.

Lin Sen's performance completely confirmed what the scout report said, and many experts directly criticized Lin Sen.

"A guy who played so poorly in the summer league, do you expect him to adapt to the more intense regular season?"

This is the sentiment of many people.

But the person involved, Lin Sen, didn't care. He felt pretty good about himself.

However, all this is not the point.

The point is that during the summer league, Linsen had a violent conflict with veteran Ricky Davis, who followed assistant coach Portman.
