The ring also has a number of his jersey number on the upper right side of the logo, and the name is engraved on the side of the ring.
Especially Oden's and Chen Dazhuang's rings. Oden's ring is engraved with his average data in the five games of the Finals and the words FMVP on the inside, while Chen Dazhuang's ring is engraved with the Timberwolves' regular season performance last season on the inside.
Achievements.
The ceremony of awarding the rings was not long, but it brought the atmosphere of the scene to its peak. What was worth mentioning was that not only Xiao Hua came to the scene, but also Maxili's wife and son were specially invited to the scene.
There was a touch of warmth in this happy awards ceremony.
Maxili was the No. 14 pick in 1992. He played for many teams and only played for the Timberwolves for two seasons. Unfortunately, he died in a car accident in 2000 at the age of 30. The Timberwolves also retired Mark at the Target Center.
Siri's No. 2 jersey is also the only jersey retired by Target Center since it entered the league.
After the award ceremony, both parties returned to the locker room.
As the opening game of the new season, the system that was launched again did not disappoint Chen Dazhuang.
Three red and two white buffs were refreshed, giving Da Zhuang full confidence in this game.
Moreover, among these three red cards, there is actually a single buff for the point guard. This is what Chen Dazhuang needs most at the moment. The current lineup of the Timberwolves has some problems at the first position. Between Lin Crazy and his teammates,
The tacit understanding between them is very low, and sometimes the problem
There are some problems with the ball and he is not decisive enough. Although Smith has made some adjustments in training based on these problems, this does not mean that you can practice it today and you will be able to do it tomorrow. This requires a long period of accumulation. Slowly
Slowly make changes in some ball handling habits.
In Da Zhuang's view, the biggest effect of the buff is to speed up the change, and now Da Zhuang also allows the team to use some videos of games with and without buffs for training.
This also allows players to see their own problems more directly. This method has been proven last season. Both Middleton and Bennett have benefited a lot from this.
Within thirty minutes, the tacit understanding between the two players designated by the host increases by 50%. After these two players receive the pass, the hit rate increases by 10%. Each assist completed permanently increases the tactical understanding ability by 100%.
3 (Point guard single buff.)
The other two are for a center and one for a shooting guard.
Soon the starting players from both sides came to the center of the court.
As the starting players for the Timberwolves in this game, Chen Dazhuang arranged Shuhao Lin, Middleton, Bennett, Yi Jianlian and Oden.
On the Grizzlies side are Tony Allen, Courtney Lee, Mike Conley, Randolph and Gasol.
The Grizzlies basically didn’t make any big moves in the free market this summer, which is just a few rotation player adjustments. In an interview before the game, Grizzlies head coach Dave also said that their lineup is more skilled than the Timberwolves.
He has a better understanding than his opponent in terms of speed, so he is still very confident in this game.
But once the game started, Dave was hit in the face.
The Timberwolves' offense did not go as he said after the opening. In fact, he thought this way because of the Timberwolves' performance in the preseason. Everyone knows that the Timberwolves were unable to occupy the No. 1 position during the offseason due to Rubio's incident.
The problem is, this can be seen from the performance of the Timberwolves in the preseason.
But what Dave didn't expect was that the No. 1 position that should have become a vulnerability for the Timberwolves in this game not only did not become a vulnerability, but instead became one of the best performers in the game.
After the game started, the Timberwolves' first attack was the cooperation between him and Middleton. First, he handed the ball to Middleton in a hand-off, and then ran without the ball and Middleton lobbed the ball.
It was given to Oden in the post, and Oden handed it to Lin Crazy. The basketball did not pause in his hands for more than three seconds, and he directly handed the ball to Bennet who used the screen of his teammates to throw away the defensive player.
special.
After receiving the ball, Bennett immediately took off and shot.
The basketball fell into the basket accurately and scored a three-pointer.
In Dave's view, the serious problem is not whether the Timberwolves scored three points or two points, but that this offense can be said to be coordinated by the entire Timberwolves in one go. The movement and coordination between the five players on the field can be described as beautiful.
Draw to describe.
After seeing Bennett score the ball on the court, Shuhao Lin secretly clenched his fists. Bennett also stepped forward and gave him a high-five. In fact, after joining the Timberwolves, Shuhao Lin was under a lot of pressure. You know
The Timberwolves were the championship last season, and because he and Chen Dazhuang are both Chinese, many people in the outside world think that Chen Dazhuang chose Lin Shuhao because of his compatriots.
Especially when the Timberwolves did not perform well in the preseason, such voices became even louder.
Although he has put in a lot of effort in both training and games since joining the team, this cannot dispel the doubts about him from the outside world. He knows very well that the only way to dispel such doubts is through games.
This was only the Timberwolves' first attack, and as the game went by, the Timberwolves gradually took control of the game. It can be said that Lin Shuhao used his actual performance to respond to the doubts about him from the outside world.
By the end of the first half, the Timberwolves had basically secured the victory of this game.
67 to 53, leading the Grizzlies by 14 points at halftime.
What made Dave and the Grizzlies players feel that victory was hopeless was not the score difference, but the scene of the game. Whether it was the offensive or defensive end, the Timberwolves showed extremely strong suppression, especially Dave's
The trusted Grizzlies insider, with Oden's strength, both Randolph and Gasol were in a very awkward position.
Another surprise for Timberwolves fans is the performance of LaVine and Dinwiddie.
Especially LaVine, the young man is entering his first NBA regular season game in his career. He is so excited that he will never shoot if he can dunk, and he will never do it half-heartedly if he can dunk as beautifully as possible.
It's just that this kind of behavior made Da Zhuang look a little ugly on the sidelines.
"Go back and give him extra practice. Why make it so complicated when you're already scoring points? It's all fancy stuff."
Smith also shook his head and said nothing.
Chapter completed!
