Chapter 213 The Fierceness of the Green Army
What kind of situation can make a team that is in an awkward situation worse? If you ask Dwayne Casey this question, he will definitely tell you that it is a series of away games.
When your team starts a losing streak, the best way is to rest at home, but the Timberwolves are unlucky in the schedule. They are already in a difficult situation now.
As a result, this damn schedule made them have to take a long-distance trip to the east, six days, four battles, and one back-to-back. This scratching devil's schedule is arranged after Christmas.
Originally, the Timberwolves players are scattered. Do you expect them to play well? It's better to expect the opponent's poor state, and the continuous away game will wear away a little courage they have left.
Even if it is pressured by Kevin McHale, the team manager, it can bring much help to the team.
I'm afraid Dwayne Casey didn't expect to take the victory in Boston before the game started. After all, the bad state of the Timberwolves is completely like a collective.
The management of the team is not good. It can't blame others. There is no deal, no plan. It is completely waiting for the draft to bring them qualitative changes. Unfortunately, they don't have Angie's luck.
Randy Foyer is not Master Joe, and even he can only rank in the top ten in this rookie. Whether it is Roy, Rondo and Chen Feng, they are so far away from him in terms of personal performance.
The only advantage of this guy may be to brush the data for himself to make the transcript look better.
Even in the All-Star rookie game, this guy can barely squeeze in. As for his evaluation of his future? Maybe outside the management of the Timberwolves, not many people can be optimistic about this guy.
Some people are just not born at the right time. If he advances a season or postpones a season, he may not face such an embarrassing situation, but God, that old guy, is willing to make such a joke with people.
This season has almost been ruined. Even rookies like Randy Foyer have begun to get used to failure. You can imagine how bad the team's morale has been.
The strength gap between NBA teams is not out of reach. Even the bottom team can often unexpectedly overturn the leader, but you must be able to maintain strong cohesion.
As for this point, it seems that it has nothing to do with the Timberwolves for a long time. Their cohesion is equivalent to nothing.
No one cares whether they lose or not, and no one cares whether the team can break into the playoffs. Maybe what they care about is whether they can get a salary. In addition, the team is dead.
Even if McHale will applaud everyone before the start of the game, what effect can this have? I'm afraid it can only prove that these guys are still alive.
Consecutive defeats, consecutive defeats, such continuous defeats have long lost their confidence in winning. Even in the face of the Bucks who are at the bottom of the league like themselves, they can lose without any suspense.
At half-time, they only supported two quarters in Milwaukee, and then most of them chose to disarm and surrender. Only Garnett himself could fight with his opponent, but he could not save the team.
Resistance? Maybe in addition to some guys whose contracts are about to expire who can still have the strength to refresh data, other people have long not valued their future in the Timberwolves. It's like a swamp.
It is said that the Trail Blazers are a star black hole, but now it seems that Minnesota's despair is actually more horrible.
Even Dwayne Casey himself has no intention to win the game. There has been news from the management for a long time. It is unknown how long he can sit as the head coach.
Next week? One month? Or after this game? Anyway, Dwayne Casey knows in his heart that the team's continuous failure is always looking for an unlucky scapegoat. He is definitely a good choice.
However, Dwayne Casey doesn't mind get out of here. If he was still full of confidence when he took over the team at the beginning of the season, he would have been physically and mentally exhausted by today.
The players are not confident, and the management is in chaos. This is the current situation of the Timberwolves. This is definitely something that a coach can save. Dwayne Casey's current plan is to stand in this last shift.
It's not a surprise if he receives a letter of dismissal tomorrow morning. What Dwayne Casey can do now is only one kind of unwillingness that he doesn't want to be swept out of the house.
Many players are waiting to be traded. Even if they can't trade, they are looking forward to changing places. After all, Minnesota, a city with little attention, is not popular at all.
This is not New York, not Los Angeles, and there is no background. It is estimated that except for the loyal fans of the Timberwolves, no one will pay attention to them at all, let alone popularity.
Except for Garnett, most of the other people can only play the role of passers-by, including Dwayne Casey. Maybe no one knows where this guy came from.
It was such a half-dead state that the Timberwolves watched the Celtics perform a gorgeous appearance at the North Shore Garden Arena in such a sluggish atmosphere, and they just appeared silently.
No one shouted any slogans. Even Dwayne Casey clapped his hands to cheer for them, and it seemed to be a little lacking **. All this seemed to be a routine.
Maybe these guys are still thinking about how to end the game quickly. They will have to make up for a nap on the plane and then fly to New York to compare with the Knicks. If it proves that they are worse, it will completely extinguish the minds of those Timberwolves fans and take the damn Eastern Brigade as soon as possible. Over the past, a long-distance trip is a physically and mentally exhausting torture for the current Timberwolves.
The players' different thoughts also made Dwayne Casey helpless. However, although he knew that the end of the game was likely to be defeated by his opponent, he also tried his best to send the strongest team of the Timberwolves.
Randy Foyer, Riki Davis, Garnett, Hassel, Blount, this is already the strongest lineup that Dwayne Casey, as a coach, can rack his brains.
Even Dwyane Casey also considered the factors to prove himself in front of the old Lord, such as Ricky Davis and Blount, who exchanged the Timberwolves from the Celtics.
Especially Ricky Davis wanted to be the boss in the Cavaliers, but the management of the Cavaliers, who was selected as the little emperor, kicked the Celtics. As a result, he has been sluggish for more than two years here.
When he was finally sent to the Timberwolves, he was basically used as an addition. This guy was also resurrected in the Timberwolves. Now he may be out of Garnett, which is in his heart.
Blount is not so angry, but there is nothing wrong with proving himself in front of his old employer.
In fact, it should be fair to say that Dwayne Casey is a more attentive coach, but this guy's luck is so bad that he caught up with the Timberwolves' lowest time to coach.
Unlike the Timberwolves' brainstorming lineup arrangement, Rivers is obviously much easier. Since the ticket has not been issued, he can continue to use the previous starting lineup.
Rondo, Chen Feng, Jefferson, Pierce, Tony Allen and Rivers know how difficult the other party's situation is, so he has no intention of dragging the game to the fourth quarter.
"Quick battle, put pressure on the opponent from the beginning of the game. The Bucks can defeat them with oppression and defense, and we can also do it. I don't want any accidents when we meet such an opponent."
Although he lost to the Heat, now the guys under Rivers are becoming more and more profiant. In the face of the Timberwolves at the bottom of the West, what he needs is a withered offensive!
There is no need to be polite or hide anything. Rivers just wants to tell these guys to beat me hard! Beated until the other party began to collapse! The harder you beat, the better!
The Celtics are not short of fierceness now, especially with the fierce votes of Chen Feng and Pierce. When they become fierce, they will definitely make many opponents tremble.
But Rivers now not only wants to make these kids fierce, but also has to make them have a murderous spirit. When he meets the opponent, he can psychologically hold the opponent's momentum and make the other party afraid!
Like a beast, you must make it full of dangerous wildness. As long as someone dares to look directly at it, it will be suppressed by the murderous feeling.
Rivers's free-range**, the biggest gain is that this group of fierce Boston bandits can make people break down, and his words are equivalent to opening the fence where the beasts are rampant.
A group of beasts screaming and rushing out. What they can do is definitely tearing up all the enemies they can see!
The Timberwolves over there were not even ready to meet the fierce bandits at the beginning.
Before Randy Foyer could even control the basketball in his hand, he was successfully caught by Rando's flashing ball. When he realized it, the ET-like guy had run away.
After receiving Rondo's pass, Pierce single-handedly ate Tranton Hassel, with a swing and a sliding step under his feet, so that Pierce smoothly shook his opponent and scored lightly and abnormally.
And this is just the beginning. Pierce's attack was so fast that many people were even thinking about it, but just a minute later, Dwayne Casey could only shout desperately on the sidelines.
At 8:0, only one minute and five seconds have passed on the court, and the Timberwolves are being torn apart by the Celtics fiercely.
The Celtics, who have just accepted a defeat in Miami, are using their strength to show their opponents how fierceness is...
(All kinds of request!!! The first update... Working hard... Everyone, it's awesome. By the way, I'm Jose Guo Nu's book. In fact, there's no need to push it. It's very famous!)
