In this game with the Thunder, Da Zhuang did not use the system. It is not that Da Zhuang thinks that he can win the game 100%, but Da Zhuang must consider the points in the second half, especially the playoffs. According to the nature of the system,

Da Zhuang thinks that if we get to the playoffs, we must accumulate a certain amount of points.

What is this called? It means you don’t have to worry when you have enough food at home.

And with the current record of the Timberwolves, even if they lose a few games, I don’t think it will have any impact.

However, this match made Da Zhuang feel a little surprised.

After the game started, the Timberwolves' state was still at a certain level. However, the Thunder did not know whether it was because of back-to-back away games. Almost all members were out of shape. Only Westbrook maintained a strong fighting spirit, and even

Durant's shooting percentage is very poor.

In this way, the outcome of the game will naturally be without any surprises.

In this battle between the Western Conference's powerful players at the Target Center, the Timberwolves finally defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 101-90, thus further consolidating their position in the Western Conference rankings.

On the other hand, for the Warriors, the aftermath of losing the game against the Timberwolves also broke out this round.

The Warriors sitting at Oracle Arena actually lost to the Denver Nuggets 91-103 at home.

It was also rare for Cole to be interviewed by reporters after the game and had some opinions on the performance of some players.

After the Timberwolves finished their game with the Thunder, they also appeared at the Toyota Center in Houston the next afternoon, where they will face the Rockets at 6 o'clock tonight.

So far in the regular season this season, the Rockets' performance is even better than last season.

The trio of George Hill, Harden, and David West has really created sparks this season. In addition, coupled with Capela's growth, the Rockets have also achieved 33 wins and 6 losses in the past 39 games.

achievements.

Facing the Timberwolves, who are ranked first in the league, as a good friend of Dazhuang, Carlisle also said in an interview with reporters before the game that he has been looking forward to this game for a long time, and said that the Rockets will definitely go all out in this game.

Try to overturn the Timberwolves, the NBA's galactic battleship, at home.

Carlisle did what he said. The Rockets at home in this game really gave the Timberwolves enough trouble and pressure. From the first minute until the end of the game, the situation was always anxious. Both sides

The score difference never exceeded 5 points from the first quarter to the end.

Whether it was a confrontation between the main lineup or a duel between rotating lineups, the Rockets showed a strong desire to win in this game, and the feel and status of all players were on the line.

There were 29 seconds left before the end of the game.

The Rockets had the offensive ball, and the score at this time was that the Timberwolves were only one point ahead of the Rockets at 103 to 102.

The only thing that is beneficial to the Timberwolves is that the Timberwolves will have the last attack no matter what. Although the time may not be sufficient, Da Zhuang has been holding the last timeout in his hands and not using it. This is the most beneficial to the Timberwolves.

After Harden received a pass from George Hill in the frontcourt, Harden raised his right hand to signal his teammates to pull away, then stood there dribbling and counting the time.

On the sidelines, Carlisle and Da Zhuang both stood there and stared closely at the game.

There were still 6 seconds left in the 24-second attack time. Harden started to activate, and Harden's next move also stunned Da Zhuang. It turned out to be a classic step-back three-pointer in his previous life.

Damn it, did you have this crazy shooting method at this time? Do you remember that Da Zhuang didn’t develop this abnormal shooting method after Paul went to the Rockets?

The basketball fell into the basket, and Middleton protested to the referee that Harden had walked.

The referee also shook his head to show that the protest was ineffective. Only Da Zhuang knew that this kind of method would become so popular in the league in the future. As long as you are a shooting guard, you will be embarrassed to see anyone if you say you can't step back.

.

Spicy next door, this damn thing is not caused by the changes brought about by the little butterfly wings of labor and management, then this is a bit uncomfortable, and the big beard's move is simply unsolvable.

No, there's also that rogue way of drawing fouls. I hope this guy hasn't developed it yet.

103 to 105, there are only 6.7 seconds left before the end of the game.

All the Rockets fans in the stands stood up and cheered wildly.

Da Zhuang also called out the last timeout.

The timeout ended soon and the two sides returned to the court again, and Jokic on the Timberwolves' side used his performance to tell Rockets fans that it was too early to be happy.

After the pick-and-roll, the three-point shot also fell into the basket accurately. The only difference was that the red light on the timer on the backboard also turned on. There was no time for the Rockets.

106 to 105, the Timberwolves defeated the Houston Rockets with a 1-point advantage.

The moment the whistle sounded, the stands of Toyota Center were silent. The crazy Timberwolves players on the court were celebrating crazily. Middleton jumped directly on Jokic's back.

Smith and others on the sidelines also jumped up with excitement.

Da Zhuang calmed down his mood, and then walked towards Carlisle on the sidelines with a smile on his face.

"Can you fucking put away your smile? When I see this smile, I can't help but want to punch you."

"Hit me? I'll go, you damn thing, I don't look down on you, come on, I'll give you a hand, little boy, what the hell, you're not convinced."

Carlisle turned around and left in anger.

Carlisle was indeed very angry. If he lost by a big score, he would have nothing to say, but it felt a bit sour to be defeated.

And the arrogant Da Zhuang here couldn't be happy for long either.

After the game against the Rockets, the Timberwolves returned to Minneapolis for a day of rest, and then came to Oklahoma City to challenge the Thunder away from home.

This time the Timberwolves were not so lucky.

In the final meeting between the Western Conference's top players in Oklahoma City, the Timberwolves also suffered their second loss of the season.

113 to 102, the Thunder ended the Timberwolves' winning streak with an 11-point difference.

However, the end of this game also means that the Timberwolves' devilish schedule has finally come to an end. After this game, the Timberwolves will also have a rare two days of rest, and the opponents in the next round are not strong teams.

In addition, Da Zhuang also decided after discussing with Smith and others that the next regular season will slowly start to rotate the lineup according to different opponents to ensure the physical reserves of the main players.
