Chapter 86 The curtain rises, the Rockets vs Timberwolves!

Before the game, the Rockets warmed up the game on their official Twitter and said that the team will strive for 10 consecutive victories.

The comment section of this tweet quickly gathered a large number of fans.

Fire fans are naturally rejoicing.

Since the beginning of this season, the team's successive victories have given them a feeling of "turning over and singing".

"Our morale is high, and we are full of talents. I dare say that this 10-game winning streak is stable!"

"The physical condition of the Yao-Mai combination this season is great, and it feels like they are both back to their peak! Coupled with the strong performances of young players such as Lowry, Courtney Lee, Griffin, etc., the Rockets have sufficient fuel and are on the way to fly Skyrocketing' trend!"

Fans of other teams, seeing the Rockets so strong, will inevitably feel a little "sour".

But the Timberwolves are obviously not the best choice to end the winning streak of Space City, so they have to talk about him and pick some other things:

"George is still on the daily watch list and is about to miss the fifth game. I don't know how he will feel when he comes back and finds that he has lost his main position."

"Courtney Lee is definitely a strong contender for this year's Most Improved Player, Paul George? Just a rookie, let's practice for another two years!"

"Judging from the attitude of the Rockets in cultivating Courtney Lee recently, there is a high probability that George will disappear, and Griffin's position as the third giant is also in jeopardy."

......

All kinds of strange remarks emerge in endlessly, and the only thing in common is-hope that when the Rockets are about to reach their peak, there will be a fire in the backyard, and several potential rookies will "fight".

............

In such an environment of public opinion, the game came as scheduled.

Such an important game, CCTV will naturally not miss it.

"Hello, viewers, welcome to the NBA game broadcast brought to you by cctv-5."

"I'm Yu Jia!"

"I'm Yang Yi."

In the live broadcast room, two commentators started as usual.

"Today brings you the Houston Rockets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves!"

"Director Yang, can you briefly analyze this game for us?"

Yu Jia asked.

"Ok."

"The situation of the two sides of the game is very different. The Rockets have won nine consecutive victories, ranking first in the league, and are the biggest dark horse since the beginning of the season!"

"The Timberwolves only achieved a record of 2 wins and 7 losses. The recent situation is not ideal. The core of the team is Kevin Love, who is known as the 'God of Love', but so far, he has not proved that he can lead the team with good data. The team wins."

Yang Yi analyzed.

"Love has ushered in a great improvement in statistics this season. He is currently averaging 18.5 points and 12.3 rebounds per game. He is known as one of the best insiders of the new generation."

"However, he will face Yao Ming and Blake Griffin today. I don't know if he can handle it."

Yu Jia said with a smile.

Obviously, after these 9 victories, whether it is fans or commentators, the degree of optimism towards the Rockets is far from what it was at the beginning of the season!

"Okay, now I've got the starting rosters for both sides."

"The Rockets are still: Lowry, Courtney Lee, McGrady, Griffin and Yao Ming."

"The Timberwolves are: Luke Ridnour, this year's No. 08 pick-Wesley Johnson, the 03 No. [-] pick who just transferred from the Heat-Michael Beasley, the new Wolf King- Kevin Love, and the No. [-] pick of the [-] Golden Generation - Darko Milicic!"

Yu Jia introduced.

"But judging from the draft pick, the Timberwolves are no worse than the Rockets."

"This also shows that in terms of talent alone, the gap between the two teams is not as great as shown in the record."

"The key depends on whether these talented young people from the Timberwolves can live up to people's expectations of them."

Yang Yi commented with a smile.

"Yeah, the NBA is a place where miracles happen. The game is not over yet, and everything is unknown!"

"Okay, now the game is about to start, let's turn our attention to the front!"

After all, Yu Jia waved his hand, and the screen switched to the Toyota Center Arena.

............

At this time, Shen Fei had brought the general manager of the Blazers, Pritchard, who had come all the way, into the VIP box.

The live broadcaster keenly captured this scene and turned the camera over.

Soon, Shen Fei's figure appeared on the big screen in the center of the arena.

Fans at the Toyota Center immediately gave warm applause and cheers.

Obviously, they are very satisfied with the new general manager!

The Asian youth smiled and waved to the fans calmly.

"The fans love you so much!"

Pritchard said with a smile on the side.

"I brought Houston a win, and they're going to like me."

Shen Fei said lightly, without the slightest hint of pride in his words.

Pritchard was taken aback when he heard the words, and admired the young man in front of him even more.

............

With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially begins!

Not surprisingly, Yao Ming won the scrum again.

Since his comeback, he's no longer a matchbox bouncer, so thus far, the jumper hasn't lost.

The rocket strikes first!

Lowry pushed the ball across half court to organize the offense.

Griffin stepped forward to pick and roll.

With the help of the cover, Xiaogangpao easily got rid of the defense of Ridnour, the thin point guard of the Timberwolves.

Love didn't dare to neglect, and quickly came out of the penalty area to defend.

Unexpectedly, Lowry saw the right time, hit the ground, and passed the ball to Griffin who was running down.

The next moment, the white monster came out of the cage!

"bang!"

Griffin made a powerful one-handed dunk and slammed the ball into the basket.

The strength is so great that it seems to smash the backboard!

"wow~"

The Toyota Center boiled instantly.

The fans present have gradually become accustomed to Griffin's dunk performance, and they are looking forward to every game!

2:0, the Rockets took the lead!

In the transition between offense and defense, Love immediately wanted to use singles to regain the field.

He received a pass from Ridnour in the low post and started posting up.

But after pushing twice, Le Fu suddenly discovered that the strength of the opponent was not lost to him at all.

Seeing that the attack time passed by seconds, he knew that there was no way to delay it any longer, so he wanted to pass the ball.

But when he looked up to observe his teammate's running position, a figure quietly walked over from the bottom line...

"Snapped!"

The basketball in Love's hand was taken out, and it was Lowry who came!

After completing the steal, he immediately advanced with the ball and launched a counterattack.

Tracy McGrady and Courtney - Lee quickly followed up the first time.

The Rockets played a three-line fast break skillfully!

On the Timberwolves side, only Wesley Johnson and Beasley retreated to their own half in the first place.

The two unanimously turned their attention to McGrady on the left.

Lori had an idea, and faced TC's direction, but suddenly flicked his wrist to the right, passing an advance amount!

Courtney - Lee rushed to catch a pass from his teammate.

At this moment, there was no one in front of him.

And Johnson, who has outstanding physical fitness, quickly adjusted his pace and rushed towards Courtney Lee.

But...it's too late!

Xiao Li took three steps, soared into the air, and reached the highest point before the opponent's defense was in place.

"bang!"

Another crisp one-handed snap.

Although it is far less powerful than Griffin's dunk just now, it is strong enough for wing players!

As soon as the goal was scored, the fans at the scene were completely excited.

As if they had foreseen the victory, they began to celebrate wildly.

The sound was so loud that it seemed to overturn the roof of the stadium!

At the same time, in the VIP box, Shen Fei asked with a smile: "How is Courtney-Lee's fast attack ability not bad?"
