The King of the NBA

Chapter 79 - 3 straight



   The game with the Lakers ended, the Timberwolves did not leave Los Angeles, because there is another game at Staples Stadium the next day-of course, this time their opponent is no longer the Lakers, but the Clippers.

The Lakers and Clippers are the only two teams in the league that share the same stadium. The Timberwolves are next to each other in this schedule, so although the Timberwolves play back-to-back, they don’t need two. Running around. This is a good thing for the Timberwolves.

  No words for a night.

  The next morning, the Timberwolves will gather and rush to the temporarily rented stadium for training.

   There was a game in the evening, and there was a game yesterday. It was a test of the player’s physical fitness, so Adelman did not set any training topics, but just let everyone train freely, that is, what is the shot, find a feeling.

   Another point is to take advantage of this time to explain to the people the need to pay attention to the Clippers, layout and drill some specific tactics, tactics against the Clippers.

  After all, the Clippers are different from the Lakers. The Lakers are short of soldiers and generals, and the combat power itself is not at its peak.

   But the Clippers are neat, Paul, Griffin, Jordan Jr., Redick, Crawford, Chris… their lineup is not weak at all, but very strong.

   can know from one point, that is, since Paul joined, the Clippers have not missed the playoffs.

   “This game will not be easy, we must go all out…” Adelman’s expression was solemn. After suffering three consecutive losses, they finally won a two-game winning streak. He did not want to end this.

   Timberwolves will be the same.

  ……

After some training, the crowd stopped.

  Ning Yi did not stop and continued to train. He has a special way taught to him by adjusting his breathing to adjust his body and relieve fatigue, which can support higher-intensity training.

  With this set of methods, even if it is a back-to-back game, he does not need to exercise restraint and can follow the usual training plan.

   In fact, at the beginning, neither Adelman nor Terry Porter agreed. It was counterproductive to think that Ning Yi was training blindly.

   But time can always prove a lot of things. After a period of time, they don’t care anymore, because Ning Yi’s training intensity is great, but he will become alive and well again the next day.

   “Uh…”

  Ning Yi took a step forward and shot with his hand raised, and his shot speed was very fast.

   The middle shot reached a level, and Ning Yi was not satisfied with it. He began to pursue the speed of the shot, which allowed him to avoid the cover more effectively and to shoot in more complicated situations.

   Of course, this is not easy.

  After half an hour of training, Ning Yi stopped, rested for a while, and then started training for three points.

  This is also important. Whether it is Ning Yi himself or the system, he ranks three points in a position second only to the CIC. In the future, this may be one of Ning Yi’s most important reliance.

   “Huh, why don’t you progress faster, this training intensity…” On the sidelines, Barria shook his head again and again, stunned for Ning Yi’s training intensity.

   “Yeah.” Love also said: “Ning is hardworking enough.”

  Martin and others also nodded.

  In fact, this is not the first time that everyone has seen Ning Yi practice this way, but every time I see it, I can’t help but sigh. Many people in NBA are very talented, and many people work hard, but Ning Yi’s hard work is really rare.

  Diang smiled bitterly, very suffocating, said with a bitter smile: “It’s not that I don’t work hard, but I can’t do it.” He used to be unconvinced. He followed Ning Yi, and the result was tragedy the next day.

   This training method is not for everyone.

  Half an hour later, Ning Yi’s training finally ended.

  The people left together.

  ……

  At six in the evening, Staples Center Arena.

   The game between the Timberwolves and the Clippers has already started. The Timberwolves took the lead. They had a good style at the beginning of the game and played a 10:4 for the Clippers.

   But soon the Clippers started to counterattack, Paul made a three-pointer, and then assisted Griffin dunk, the two scored 5 points in less than a minute, and the difference was chased to only 1 point.

   Then the Clippers began to gain momentum and soon overtake the score.

   Adelman frowned, called for a timeout, made a staff rotation, replaced Ning Yi and Barria, and then rearranged the tactics.

  When he returned to the field, Ning Yi showed an excellent shot and quickly made a mid-range shot, then he was an empty cut and scored two more points.

   But the Clippers immediately strengthened their defense against Ning Yi.

   A few minutes later, Ning Yi shot again, but failed to shoot. When the first quarter ended, Ning Yi scored 4 points and 1 rebound.

   In the second quarter, the Clippers played a beautiful wave of attacks, widening the point difference to more than 10 points.

   In the time after this quarter, the Timberwolves have been chasing the points, but they have not been able to overtake, the difference between the points is large and small, sometimes more than ten, sometimes only three or five points.

  However, when the half ended, the Timberwolves fell behind.

   “It seems that the back-to-back game has a great impact on the Timberwolves~www.mtlnovel.com~ This is for sure, the physical fitness will not keep up, and the state will definitely be affected.”

  In the auditorium, people are talking.

  Everyone knows the disadvantages of back-to-back games. Some people start to think that the Timberwolves may lose because the Clippers are not a weak team, but also at home.

  ……

   came to the second half, the Clippers continued to expand the point difference, once expanded to 16 points.

   Until the end of the third quarter, the Clippers also led by 15 points, Ning Yi scored 13 points in the three quarters, and performed well, but the team was behind, and his performance seemed bleak.

   In the fourth quarter, when people think that the Timberwolves are gone, they suddenly set off a wave of counterattacks. First, Love Fu made a three-pointer, and then Ning Yi also scored a three-pointer.

In the blink of an eye, the two scored a three-pointer each and chased the difference to single digits all at once.

   After this, the Timberwolves began to break out, Love, Martin, Ning Yi, Brewer all scored. Five players on the field, Rubio did not score one, but sent 3 assists.

   After a shock wave came down, the Timberwolves overtake the score.

   This is the overtaking, so that the Timberwolves finally reversed the situation, leading to the end of the game.

  The last few minutes, Adelman put Ning Yi on the field, let him play the last few minutes of the fourth quarter. Ning Yi did not disappoint him. He scored 18 points, plus 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. It can be said that after encountering a three-game losing streak, Ning Yi began to recover, one game is better than another.

  Finally, when the final whistle sounded, the score was fixed at 111:108. The Timberwolves directed a reversal, winning by a 3-point advantage and gaining a wave of three straight victories.
