Chapter 283
Barkley and Kenny Smith crazily praised Su Yan and Garnett before the game, making this already explosive matchup.
Even more anticipated.
And in the atmosphere of the whole arena boiling, the warm-up time was also passing, and the time for the main game to arrive was getting closer and closer!
About 10 minutes before the game.
Many legends also came to the audience.
Former Bulls legend, "Basketball God" Michael Jordan and "The Worm" Rodman came to watch the game and cheer for the Bulls.
"Bird" Larry Bird, "Magic" Johnson, and "Smiling Assassin" Isiah Thomas also formed a group to watch the game.
The watching of legendary legends.
Made the atmosphere of the arena, which was already enthusiastic, even higher.
"Boom!"
Under the earth-shattering cheers of the arena... the warm-up ended, and the main game arrived.
The starters of both sides began to take the field.
Chicago Bulls starters: Point Guard: Hinrich, Shooting Guard: Su Yan, Small Forward: Pippen, Power Forward: Antonio, Center: Da Yao.
Minnesota Timberwolves starters: Point Guard: Sam Cassell, Shooting Guard: Trenton Hassell, Small Forward: Latrell Sprewell, Power Forward: Kevin Garnett, Center: Ervin Johnson.
It is worth mentioning that.
This
"Jump! Ball!"
The jump ball between Da Yao and Garnett.
Although Ervin Johnson is the Timberwolves' center.
But Garnett, who is also 211 cm tall, has an amazing 226 cm wingspan and an amazing 97 cm vertical jump, which is much more talented than Ervin Johnson.
Even the 226 cm Da Yao is not an opponent.
In terms of jump ball.
"Pa!"
Garnett, without jumping with all his might, still snatched it before Da Yao, took the lead to flick it away under the basket, and won the first attack of the game for the Timberwolves.
"Peng peng peng!"
Cassell pushed the ball forward, in the middle of the arc, broke through Hinrich one-on-one on the left wing, accelerated to kill in on the left wing first, and then a confrontation turn to shake off the defense.
Face-up attack?
Antonio came to help defend.
Cassell took the opportunity to make a "pocket pass" to Garnett under the basket, Da Yao came to fill in, and Garnett was not in a hurry to attack.
Handed it over again.
"Pa!"
Sprewell, who cut in, received the ball, did not reduce his speed, held the fire to burn the sky, and before Da Yao came to fill in the defense, he offered a dunk.
It was a dunk right away.
"Roar~"
The "Madman," who seemed to be venting his dissatisfaction with losing in the preseason, roared to the sky, mixed with the cheers and shouts of the home fans.
It put considerable psychological pressure on the Bulls at the beginning.
【Timberwolves 2:0 Bulls】.
Transition offense.
Hinrich pushed it over, Cassell rushed over fiercely, the sudden defensive pressure made Hinrich a little unaccustomed.
"Wow!"
Hurriedly split the ball to find Su Yan.
"Pa!"
Sprewell's eyes condensed, rushing out rapidly like a thunder leopard, intercepting and stealing, and... pushing the counterattack at high speed.
Pippen chased up.
Timberwolves shooting guard Trenton Hassell followed on the wing, a 2-on-1 opportunity for the Timberwolves in the front court.
Pippen chased the Madman, Hassell on the wing had a better finishing opportunity, but the Madman didn't give it, under Pippen's chase and block.
He flew up for a layup, dodging gracefully and hitting the backboard high.
This ball was quite difficult.
How?
"Swish!"
Hit.
"What a strong counterattack!"
"Deserving of being the "craziest genius in history," Sprewell's talent is unquestionable, and this counterattack finishing ability is also truly powerful."
The fans were excited.
And the Madman, who completed the attack, looked at Pippen with a hint of disdain, as if to say, without Jordan, you are trash.
Immediately.
He roared at Hassell again in the backcourt: "Bastard, I can complete the counterattack, don't reach out to ask for the ball and distract me.
Did you hear that?!"
"O... okay."
Hassell nodded weakly.
Scolding teammates too?
Yes.
The hot-tempered "Madman" Sprewell, he even scolds his teammates when he gets ruthless.
Not just teammates, he once dared to choke his coach because he was dissatisfied with the coach's arrangements shortly after entering the league.
Staged the sensational "Choke Gate."
Even the coach dared to hit, so you can imagine how violent his temper is.
And such a violent player, the reason why he can stand in the league is precisely because he has talent and ability like a genius.
"Mini Jordan," "The craziest genius in history."
Such titles can explain how powerful his strength is, which makes the team coach who got him love and hate him.
【Timberwolves 4:0 Bulls】.
Sprewell scored 4 points in a row, tonight he looks a bit excited.
Ball possession conversion.
