The King of the NBA

Chapter 420 Winning Streak, Winning Streak

There is indeed no suspense in the game, the gap is too big.

The Timberwolves won by 15 points in the first quarter. After entering the second quarter, the Timberwolves further expanded the point difference. By the end of the half, the point difference had reached 20 points.

"It feels like the Timberwolves are stronger than they were last season."

"Yeah, Ning Yi's passing is more ingenious than last season. He didn't score much in the first half, but the number of assists has reached 8, and he is only two points away from double figures. He didn't make many shots. The Timberwolves already Leading the Hornets by 20 points, if Ning Yi strengthens his personal offense, the Hornets will cry."

"That won't be the case. Although Ning Yi didn't score a lot, the other players of the Timberwolves played very well. Ning Yi restrained the defense on the offensive end and sent out assists. That is to say, although Ning Yi didn't score, but part of the Timberwolves Scoring is related to Ning Yi. So if he turns on the scoring mode, other people's scoring will inevitably decrease, not to say that once Ning Yi starts scoring, the Timberwolves can win the Hornets by 30 points, 40 points, no."

"Oh, makes sense"

There are no weak teams in the NBA. It is impossible for the Timberwolves to beat the Hornets by 30 or 40 points.

But even if you win by 20 points, 10 points are enough, and ten points is also a win.

The second half is about to start, the coach of the Hornets cheered up the players: "It doesn't matter, there is still the second half, the difference is only 20 points, we can still recover, as long as we play well"

This is just a consolation, because the Hornets failed to turn the situation around after entering the third quarter, and the Timberwolves still had the upper hand. Ning Yi strengthened his personal offense, but his choice of points was very clever, always at the key point of the Hornets chasing points Standing up at all times made the Hornets' counterattack impossible.

After a few minutes, the point difference was still more than 20 points.

At this point some Hornets fans had lost their patience and got up and left.

The Hornets asked for a timeout, and the coach's face was livid. This time, he didn't say anything to the players like "20 points is not too much" or "can still catch up", because by this time, the strength gap between the two sides has undoubtedly been revealed. If the difference in strength is small, it is still possible to catch up, but if the difference in strength is too large, it will be difficult.

When the third quarter ended, Ning Yi's personal assists had reached 11, and his personal scoring was 17 points. Compared with his last season, it seemed very few, but he still had 7 rebounds.

With 17 points, 11 assists, and 7 rebounds, Ning Yi played very comprehensively and with high efficiency. More importantly, the Timberwolves are already leading by a large score. With his teammates playing well, there is no need for Ning Yi to brush data.

For Ning Yi, swiping data is meaningless.

He has proven himself in the past two seasons, and now that his strength has further broken through and reached the real level 9, he has full confidence in himself and doesn't care much about statistics anymore.

Ning Yi didn't play in the fourth quarter, and his personal data was fixed at 17 points, 11 assists, and 7 rebounds.

"Hehe, I didn't expect to clock out in three quarters in the first regular season of this season." Ning Yi rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "It would be great if every game could clock out in three quarters."

"That's unlikely." Love didn't go up either. He took a sip of water and said, "But if you meet a team that isn't too strong, it shouldn't be difficult to clock out in three quarters. Now Jokic, Whiteside and others are As we grow up, it's easier for us."

Ning Yi nodded.

Now the Timberwolves' bench lineup is indeed very strong, almost able to compete with the main lineup of some teams. With such a bench lineup, the pressure on the main lineup will naturally be much less.

Not only Ning Yi and Love, Rubio, Martin, and Dion are also much more relaxed.

Soon, the game ended, and the Timberwolves defeated the Hornets 128:114, ushering in the first victory of the regular season this season.

Coach Adelman was in a good mood, with a smile on his cheeks, and said with a smile: "I have a hunch that this will be a pleasant and easy season, at least the regular season."

Love felt bad, so he scored 18 points, Martin 9 points, Rubio 10 points, Jokic 15 points from the bench, Whiteside 6 points, Clarkson 8 points , it can be said that except for Ning Yi, everyone else is in a bad state. On the Warriors side, Curry scored 34 points, Thompson had 27 points, Green had 17 points, and Barnes had 14 points. All four of them played very well. It is no surprise that they beat the Timberwolves.

"Unfortunately, the seven-game winning streak has been terminated."

"It's not a big deal. This season has just started. I think the Timberwolves will really start a new season after this loss. I bet they will achieve even more amazing results."

The Warriors exploded this season, with Curry averaging 30+ per game and Thompson averaging 20+ per game. The Warriors even had a 13-game winning streak and achieved a record of 16 wins and 2 losses.

But even so, we can still only rank second in the West. It shows how crazy the competition in the West is, and the teams in the East are secretly glad-fortunately, we are in the East. Except for the Cavaliers, everything else is pretty good. normal.

In 9 games, Ning Yi averaged 27 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists per game. His personal scoring has improved because he has strengthened his personal offense.

The people who were ridiculed because of Ning Yi's scoring decline in the previous seven games all shut their mouths. They finally understood that Ning Yi was not as good as last season. His scoring average declined only because he didn't want to score, not because he couldn't score.
