The King of the NBA

"I heard that Love will come back today, I wonder if it's true or not?"

"It should be true. Calculating the time, Le Fu has been resting for almost three months."

"I don't know if his condition has recovered. He hasn't played for three months. I'm afraid he won't be able to adapt for a while."

"It doesn't matter, there is always an adaptation process. I believe that Love will not be knocked down by injuries. There is still more than a month in the regular season. Love is back, and the Timberwolves are even stronger. It will definitely be no problem to reach the playoffs." , and even hope to rush to the top four."

In the auditorium, the fans were discussing.

Today, the attendance at the Target Center is over 70%. Although the game has not yet started, the fans are already a little excited. Today the Timberwolves will play against the Pistons. What fans are most looking forward to is Love will come back.

After being injured for three months, Love is finally coming back!

Meanwhile, the Timberwolves locker room.

The Timberwolves players were all in the locker room, coach Rick Adelman was also there, and Love had tidied up his equipment, with a trace of excitement on his face. After three months, he could finally return to the field.

"Le Fu, welcome back."

"Love."

"Brother, we can fight side by side again."

Everyone walked towards Le Fu, high-fiving and hugging him one by one.

Ning Yi also stepped forward and hugged Love: "You will finally come, we will become stronger and go further. This time, it is definitely not just the first round of the playoffs."

"Well." Love nodded heavily. Up to now, their goal is not only to enter the playoffs, but to go further in the playoffs, so they still need to work hard to strive for a better record and rely more on Only in this way can it be more beneficial to them in the playoffs.

Adelman also walked away, patted Love, and said with a smile: "I believe in you, we all believe in you, injuries will not knock you down, they will only make you stronger. Don't worry, it will be the same as before. "

This time, Love has been on a three-month truce, and today is the first game back. However, Adelman gave Love enough trust and readjusted his tactics. It is still the same as before, with Love as the core of his tactics.

Adelman is very clear that the ranking in the playoffs is important, but Love itself is more important. If there is no Love, it will be difficult for them to go far in the playoffs. So the top priority is not to try hard to win, but to get Love back to his form as soon as possible.

"There is still more than one month in the regular season, enough." Adelman thought to himself.

At seven o'clock in the afternoon, players from both sides played.

Then they went to the court to warm up, and Love also went to the court to warm up.

Seeing this situation, the fans were excited. Love is definitely going to play today, but there is one thing, how much time he will play is still uncertain. After all, he has just come back, and the playing time is limited to avoid secondary injuries. practice.

After some warm-up, the players from both sides left the field.

"Ning." Drummond came here, opened his hands, and hugged Ning Yi. "I really don't want to be your opponent, but I won't show mercy."

"Haha, I won't be merciful, you have to be careful." Ning Yi laughed, and patted Drummond's back hard, feeling hard, full of muscle lumps, and secretly lamented that this guy was too physically fit Scary, like a monster, he smiled and said, "Drummond, don't lose too badly."

Drummond grinned. It is said that this guy loves to laugh, and sometimes he laughs when he loses the game.

He just laughed and said, "Don't worry, you will lose. You have to be careful, don't give me a hat and pass out."

Ning Yi stared at Drummond, the two looked at each other for a while, and then Qiqi smiled, friends are friends, games are games, this is the quality of professional players.

"Come here, let me talk." Adelman beckoned, and when the crowd gathered around, he began to arrange, "Wait for Pekovic, Love, Ning, Martin, Rubio, you guys start."

When Love came back, the starting lineup must be adjusted. In the end, Brewer was taken down and placed on the bench, while Ning Yi stayed, which was regarded as a stable starting lineup.

This is not surprising. Ning Yi's performance is obvious to all. If he is not allowed to start, it would be unreasonable!

It's just that Brewer is still a little depressed. He came to the Timberwolves to be the starting small forward, and the Timberwolves executives also promised him, but now he is reduced to a substitute. But this can't be blamed on the Timberwolves executives. Who would have thought that Ning Yi, who was not an elective, would be so amazing?

In fact, there are people who are more depressed than Brewer. For example, Budinger, Shabatz, and Cunningham were all in the position of "chief backup small forward". Don't argue, no one is better than the other anyway, the difference between the third substitute and the fourth substitute is not that big.

"It is still sent according to our previous methods, but some adjustments are needed." Adelman said: "Love is still the first offensive point, but other people need to run more and make air cuts to open up space for Love and create Opportunity. On the offensive end, Pekovic, you have to protect the rebounds, and Ning and Martin, you also have to fight for rebounds."

Everyone nodded.

This arrangement is actually to protect Le Fu. After all, Le Fu just came back from injury. If he doesn't protect himself better and gets injured again, it will be over.

Subsequently, Adelman made some arrangements for specific tactics.

The game is about to begin.

Players from both sides played, the Timberwolves replaced Brewer with Love, and the Pistons once again started with Andre Drummond, Greg Monroe, Kyle Singler, John Sh - Smith, Brandon - Jennings.

It was Pekovic and Drummond who went up to jump the ball. The referee threw the ball into the air. Drummond was a little faster and caught the ball first. Jennings.

"here we go."

In the auditorium, the fans stared at the field.

Jennings advanced to the frontcourt, made a pick-and-roll with Drummond, and then passed the ball to Smith. Smith took the ball and made a tentative step.

"snort."

As soon as he rushed to the inside line, Pekovic was annoyed, took a step forward, jumped up, and covered Smith with his big hand like a cattail fan.

But at this moment, Smith distributed the ball to the side. Monroe, who slipped over from the baseline, grabbed the basketball, took a step forward, and jumped straight up. Love could only watch, but he couldn't stop it. Gotta pay a foul.

Bang!

With a loud bang, Monroe hung his hands on the basket.

At the very beginning of the game, there was a two-handed dunk. Several people from the Timberwolves exchanged glances, and the opponent came down from the start of the game. It can be seen that the comer was not kind.
