Chapter 27 Touched

There were no surprises in the game that night. The Boston Celtics, who had come all the way, were unable to cause any hindrance to the Timberwolves' winning streak.

Just as Chen Dazhuang thought, even the system seemed to have no interest in the opponent. The system, which always liked to cause trouble, only provided Dazhuang with five BUFFs of one red, one blue and three white.

After receiving a pass from the point guard in the fourth quarter, the three-point shooting rate increases by 50%. For every minute of the game, the shooting rate decreases by 1% (double BUFF, exclusive BUFF for point guard and shooting guard)

The passing success rate increases by 50% within ten minutes. (Special BUFF for point guards)

Chen Dazhuang chose to use this red and one blue BUFF in the fourth quarter.

However, in the first three quarters of the game, the Timberwolves have maintained a slight lead. The healthy Oden's dominance at the basket is still unable to compete with Celtics center Faverani.

In other positions, when the combination of Rubio and Martin faced Bradley and Crawford, although the two did not have an advantage defensively, they were much stronger than the opponent offensively.

In addition, the Celtics themselves were quite slow to enter the state after the opening game.

Therefore, the Timberwolves have been in the lead in the first three quarters, although the point difference is within single digits.

In the fourth quarter, with the support of BUFF, Martin threw four three-pointers from the outside. These four three-pointers instantly widened the point difference between the two sides, thus laying the foundation for victory.

108 to 88, this is the final score between the two sides.

The Timberwolves ushered in their 11th consecutive victory. When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, deafening cheers rang out from the center of the target. From the opening attendance rate of less than 50%, to

Now almost every venue is full. According to data provided by the NBA's official website, the Target Center in Apollos has become the top three arenas in the league in terms of attendance.

Glen Taylor can be said to be smiling from ear to ear.

Timberwolves fans know very well that all this comes from that young Chinese, so now Chen Dazhuang can be said to be the most popular person in the entire Timberwolves. Neither Oden nor Martin is as popular as Dazhuang in the team.

After this round, the Timberwolves also took the lead in the league with their 11-game winning streak. The Indiana Pacers, an Eastern Conference team that had previously won 10 consecutive games, lost to the Chicago Bulls 94-110 in an away game in this round, and thus were also eliminated.

The winning streak ended.

However, a subsequent report by ESPN once again brought the Timberwolves into the spotlight.

On November 17, ESPN reporter Kate published a report saying that according to insider reports, the Minnesota Timberwolves had reached a deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Timberwolves will send Kevin Love and receive Anthony Bennett from the Cavaliers, plus a 2014 first-round pick and a 2014 second-round pick.

After ESPN's report was forwarded by major media, many people also confirmed the report from the NBA's official website.

Immediately after the Timberwolves and Cavaliers held press conferences one after another, Bennett and Love, as the protagonists of this transaction, also appeared one after another at the press conferences of both parties. However, when the two were interviewed by reporters at the press conference,

What he said suddenly made Chen Dazhuang the focus of attention from many media and fans again.

"Chen is the person I respect the most. As early as when I was competing in the NCAA, he has been playing a very important role in my basketball career. He would always encourage me and give me confidence. Later,

I decided to enter the draft and was selected first by the Cleveland Cavaliers. I was very

I was very excited and happy, but after I joined the team, I encountered a lot of problems and suffered a lot of doubts and criticisms. At that time, we still kept in touch, and he kept encouraging me.

I feel that he is the head coach who understands me best, and I am willing to play for him for the rest of my life."

At the Timberwolves' press conference, after Bennett took over the No. 24 jersey from Milt, he was very excited when being interviewed by reporters. When asked about his views on Chen Dazhuang, he was even more excited.

I was so excited that I shed tears.

This made Da Zhuang a little confused. He didn't expect this guy to be so emotional.

Love was equally excited, but his excitement is more accurately described as anger.

Kevin Love is obviously not well prepared for this transaction. However, the main reason why Chen Dazhuang agreed to trade Love was influenced by his memory. In Chen Dazhuang's memory, in fact, this transaction will still be the same next season.

will happen.

But for Love, he actually didn't expect that the Timberwolves would trade him out. In addition, the team's miraculous record this season also gave Love hope, so he was not ready to leave the Timberwolves.

planned.

And Love has always been optimistic that the team will not trade him out. After all, after Pekovic left the Timberwolves, he was the veritable boss in the Timberwolves lineup according to his contract.

On January 26, 2012, the Timberwolves and Love completed a new contract extension. The four-year contract of US$60.82 million was also the Timberwolves' highest salary. Even the team's subsequent extension of Pekovic's contract was only for a five-year contract.

60 million contract.

"He is the most incompetent head coach among the 30 teams in the league. I don't know how a guy who knows nothing became a head coach. I even suggested that the league should check his qualifications. I even think the assistant

Coach Smith is more qualified than him, because Smith does a lot of tactics, and he only knows how to sit there and use some childish actions to attract the attention of the media." Love told reporters at the Cavaliers' press conference.

When talking about his views on Chen Dazhuang, he showed extreme disdain.

A reporter raised a question about the Timberwolves' record, and Love attributed it all to luck.

"I think the Timberwolves' 11-game winning streak doesn't mean anything at all. First of all, the opponent the Timberwolves encountered was not a strong team in the league, and from the game process, it can be seen that the Timberwolves did not have any tactics during the game, it was nothing more than

Because of our personal abilities and status, to be honest, I am very much looking forward to the next encounter with the Timberwolves, and I believe I will prove my strength." It seems that Love is full of confidence in himself.

It's just that after he said this, the reporter on the scene had a weird expression. This is because when he said this, he didn't think that if the Cavaliers and Timberwolves met this season, they would have to compete.

It's the finals.
