Chapter 804 Quick Trading
The Timberwolves were under pressure. In the eyes of many people, this is nothing more than normal.It is very difficult for your second lineup composed of shrimp soldiers and crab generals to withstand the Thunder's second lineup led by Xie Kai and Paojiao.
Thibodeau is a deadly main defensive coach. It is a bit embarrassing to want him to build a strong offensive team. To attack, D'Antoni, Old Nelson, or Gentry are more suitable than him. .
In fact, the offensive potential of this Timberwolves team is far greater than the defensive potential. This team is led by a hardcore defensive coach, which is what the team management thinks.
The Thunder had a lead of more than 2 points early in the second quarter, and they played very easily.The opponent's second lineup was simply given away for nothing. It was simply to fool the time, and it was simply not competitive.
But even if they are the main players, the talented men of the Timberwolves have no advantage when they meet the Big Three of the Thunder.
At the end of the first half, the scores of the two sides did not narrow, and the point difference was still more than 20 points.
This is the best first half of the game since the Thunder's Big Three combined. Although the opponent is weak, their offensive attack is obvious.
There were no moths in the second half of the game, and the suspense soon ended.In the end, the Thunder beat the Timberwolves 122:95 at home, ushered in a big victory, and refused to lose streak.
本场比赛，雷霆三巨头的都表现出色，谢开砍下全场最高的35分，外加5个篮板5次助攻2个抢断1个盖帽。威少轰下24分8个篮板10个助攻，泡椒则是砍下20分8个篮板2个助攻3个抢断2个盖帽。
The 122 points scored in this game is also the Thunder's highest score in a single game this season, and their offense finally felt proud.
At the press conference after the game, the Thunder Big Three and coach Billy Donovan attended the press conference together.
At the press conference, there was a lot of joy and harmony, and everyone boasted about business, which seemed very lively and united.
Coach Donovan was very happy, because Xie Kai had already helped him solve the most difficult problem because he didn't need to show up.For coaches, technical issues at the tactical level are never the most difficult. The most difficult thing is to coordinate the issues between players, especially the issues between stars.It is not impossible to get out of class by yourself if you are careless and don't handle it well.
On November 11, the Thunder played against the Heat at home.
This offseason, the Heat lost their totem player Dwyane Wade.Because the magician Pat Riley repeatedly asked Wade to cut his salary, which angered the team leader, he joined the Grizzlies in a fit of anger.
And Riley was ridiculed by netizens and colleagues because of his cold blood.
In Xie Kai's view, although Wade's age is no longer worth the super maximum salary, it is too ridiculous to keep his salary cut.To know that he has never won the team's highest salary, this is a particularly sad thing for a future Hall of Famer.
The team always kidnaps players morally, which is not a good phenomenon.Compared with the cold-bloodedness of Riley and Angie, the show operations of other NBA teams are much more humane.
It's really "not afraid of not knowing the goods, but afraid of comparing goods"!
The Heat, which ranked third in the Eastern Conference last season, have performed so far this season. Riley was complained by fans as a vampire, and the Heat are also known as the most impersonal team in the league. They have lost face this summer. .
In this game, the Thunder, who played at home, continued the good momentum of the previous game, defeated their opponents, and ushered in two consecutive victories.
After the game, the Thunder temporarily ranked second in the Western Conference with a record of 6 wins and 1 loss.
On November 11, the Thunder continued to play at home against the Eastern powerhouse Toronto Raptors.In this game, they narrowly lost their opponents at home and missed their 10-game winning streak.
The Raptors ranked second in the Eastern Conference last season and are a strong but relatively low-key team.Their record in the regular season has been very strong in the past few seasons, but it is easy to stretch their hips in the playoffs.
On November 11, the head coach of the Thunder lost to the Clippers in the final by Paul, ushering in the first two-game losing streak of the season.
After this game, their record came to 6 wins and 3 losses, and they fell to the fifth place in the Western Conference, which is very disappointing.
The performance of the Big Three is still quite stable. Although it is not too amazing, compared with the first few games at the beginning of the season, their tacit understanding has improved a lot.The team's problem lies in the inside defense of the second team. The inside defense of Kanter and Singler is a cash machine. If they don't attack, they will be targeted. There is no way.
On November 11, the Thunder, which had been in poor form recently, made a deal.
This deal is very targeted. They used Kyle Singler and Joffrey Lovingji plus a second-round pick to trade with the Philadelphia 76ers for frontman Jeremy Grant.
Jeremy Grant graduated from Syracuse University. In the 20145 draft, he was selected by the 39ers in the second round with the 76th pick.
Jeremy Grant was born in a basketball family. His father is former NBA player Harvey Grant, and his uncle is Horace Grant, a member of the Bull Dynasty. Enter the NBA.
Jeremy Grant is 203cm tall, but has a wingspan of 220cm, full of explosive power; can defend multiple positions, and has a strong swing ability.
上赛季在费城76人队，他场均可以得到9.7分4.7个篮板1.8个助攻0.7个抢断1.7个盖帽，是一个非常出色的运动型侧翼。
The reason why the Thunder traded him was to be able to get a striker with excellent mobility and strong swing in the second team to help Kanter defend and help the team increase the thickness of the flanks.
As for the Philadelphia 76ers, getting Lowenji and other players is not their goal, and a second-round pick is more attractive to them.Their goals for this season are still bad, because the No. [-] pick Simmons is estimated to not be able to return until next season.
For the Thunder, the most suitable position for Jeremy Grant is the 3-4 swing, similar to Pickle, playing the 4th position in a small lineup and the 3rd position in a traditional lineup.His outside shooting is not stable enough, but his defensive versatility, blocking ability and athletic ability make him very suitable for this small ball era.
The Thunder did not pay a big price to get an athletic young striker. For them, even if Grant came to this team, the risk was not great.
As a striker striker, Singler's defense is really poor.And even his best shot, it's not particularly consistent.As for Lowenji, with the team having Ilyasova and Collison, he has very few opportunities to play, and it is not a pity to trade him.
