Chapter 33 Didn’t I say twenty consecutive losses? (asking for votes)

After the start of the second quarter, Bennett and Oden were still on the court, while Antetokounmpo, Robbie Hummel and Khris Middleton appeared on the outside.

It’s exactly the same as the first quarter of the game.

The game is still Bennett's performance time, three-pointers, mid-range shots after breakthroughs, alley-oops after pick-and-rolls, blocking in defense, blocks, etc.

Bennett became more and more excited as he played, while Barkley and Smith on the commentary table were completely numb.

The Timberwolves fans in the stands also became more and more excited as they watched, and the names of Anthony Bennett and Chen Dazhuang took turns ringing in the sky above the target center.

"Kenny, I really don't know what happened. Is it true that we have misjudged Anthony's strength as Chen said, or is it Chen who really understands Anthony?"

"Old man, in fact, maybe we really underestimated Anthony. His rating in the draft was as high as 94 points, and his shooting ability in college was not well reflected in Cleveland. Now I think Chen

You're right, Anthony is just a rookie who participated in the draft in his freshman year, and he does have very good advantages. We should give more time to such a rookie."

"Okay, but I think Mr. David Grant may not be in a good mood at the moment."

"Haha, Charles, I'm afraid it's not just Mr. David, there are probably many people who are in a bad mood, as well as Mr. Adelman, who predicted that the Timberwolves would lose twenty consecutive games, and the always shrewd Mr. Pat Riley.

I’m afraid so.”

"Yeah, you're right, the faces of those who mocked me before should be very painful now."

The game on the field is still going on, and the situation of the game is still a mess.

The Nets' performance after the start of the season, which was highly valued by many media before the start of the season, was not very convincing. You must know the current lineup of the Nets on the court. The owner of the Nets, Prokhorov, paid 100 million for it.

After the transactions involving Garnett, Pierce and others were completed, major bookmakers have reduced the Nets' odds of winning this season from 1:50 to 1:25.

In addition, before the start of the season, many media also predicted that the Nets would be number one in the Atlantic Division where they are located.

Of course, many people have also raised the issue of whether the health and physical disadvantages of the major veterans in this veteran concentration camp will become a stumbling block for the Nets to become a powerful player in the Eastern Conference.

The game situation on the field fully amplified this problem.

In the first half, Garnett still had the upper hand when facing Bennett with his height and experience advantages, but Bennett's range of activities in this game caused the Wolf King to consume a lot of energy in the first half.

In the second half of the third quarter of the game, Bennett, who became more and more excited as he fought, completely became the old Wolf King's nightmare.

At 8 minutes and 41 seconds of the third quarter, Rubio was holding the ball on the outside. Bennett still mentioned the high pick-and-roll. Rubio followed the trend and went inside in small steps. At this time, Bennett, who had completed the pick-and-roll, also followed the pick-and-roll.

Start going down the middle road.

Here, Garnett retreated to the basket after seeing Bennett's action. This scene has appeared many times in previous games. There is no need to think about attitude at all. Garnett judged that the ball ended up being Rs.

O will still pass to Bennett's hands.

It's just a matter of judgment. Whether it can be prevented is another matter.

After Bennett took a step in after crossing the free throw line, he made eye contact with Rubio, and then jumped up directly. Seeing Bennett's action, Garnett jumped into the air without hesitation. At this time, Rubio

O's pass also came to Bennett's hands.

Facing the once-famous Wolf King of the league, Bennett played half the game, and with the blessing of Chen Dazhuang's BUFF, he didn't have any fear at the moment. He held the basketball with both hands and threw it directly towards the basket. Garnett

The blocking right hand was unable to stop Bennett's two-handed dunk.

With a clang, the basketball was pushed into the basket by Bennett's hands. With his hands hanging on the basket, Bennett's body also shook twice. After the old wolf king landed, he was carried by an irresistible force.

He involuntarily took a few steps back and then sat on the ground.

After stabilizing his body and landing on the ground, Bennett made a fist with his right hand and kept beating his chest and roaring loudly.

Oden on the other side also stepped forward, clasping Bennett's shoulders with both hands and shaking him constantly.

The referee's whistle and hand gestures indicated that Bennett's goal was valid, and Garnett also gave Bennett a two-plus-one opportunity due to a defensive foul.

"Although Kevin stood up from the ground and protested to the referee, there is nothing wrong with this penalty. We can see through replays that Kevin did foul. I have to say that Kevin is old." Smith shook his head on the commentary table.

He shook his head and said.

Kidd, who was standing on the sidelines, smiled bitterly, and then arranged for Lopez to replace Garnett, who had committed five fouls.

Many Timberwolves fans in the stands gave Bennett warm applause, but among them there were many older fans who looked at the back of the man who was walking off the field, but felt something strange in their hearts.

This back was also a symbol of the center of the target. The Wolf King not only refers to Garnett, but also refers to him as the king of the Timberwolves.

Before the third quarter ended, he had already received his fifth foul. This game basically said goodbye to Garnett.

81 to 117, the Timberwolves defeated the visiting Brooklyn Nets by 36 points and ended their losing streak. Bennett played 39 minutes and contributed a game-high 41 points and 10 rebounds.

A score of 4 blocks.

Such super statistics also made Bennett the best player in this game.

41 points naturally became Bennett's new scoring record in his NBA career. After the game, when being interviewed by reporters on the sidelines, Bennett burst into tears with excitement and could not even speak at one point.

When the Timberwolves fans who didn't leave the stands saw this, they gave him encouraging applause.

"The victory of the game is not due to me alone. It is due to the efforts of all my teammates. I just did what I should do. I don't know how many points I got, and I don't care. The most important thing is that we won the game."

The important thing is that I doubted myself very much in the past games. I lost my confidence. I thought I was dragging everyone down and dragging down the leader. Just this morning I was still looking for him, but I never expected that.

At that time, he still wanted to trust me and encourage me as before. He kept telling me, Anthony, you can go play with peace of mind and he will take care of other things. I was really touched. I felt that I could no longer find anything.

There are no words to describe it all, I love him very much and respect him very much."

At the post-game press conference, Bennett was also very excited when facing reporters' questions.
