The Hornets played the Timberwolves with a 7 at the beginning; 0. Although Wang Kai could explode at this time, the timing was wrong. If Wang Kai started playing wildly at this time, then he would not be able to play in the second half.

So at this time, the Timberwolves also started to think of ways from the team. The Timberwolves started to play Gomez's bottom-line singles at this time.

The Timberwolves are also sure that they can see that Peja's defensive ability is too poor. Peja is now old and has many injuries, but she is indeed a defensive weakness.

Gomez knew that Peja's movement ability was not good at this time, so he used a change of direction shooting to attack.

Originally, Gomez was also on the same speed, but Peja was too slow. Gomez changed direction and threw Peja away.

After throwing away Peja away, Gomez easily raised his hand and made a mid-range shot. The Hornets played role players, and the Timberwolves also started playing role players. In terms of lineup integrity, the Timberwolves were stronger than the opponent.

The Timberwolves finally began to find some offensive methods, but the Hornets were reluctant to give in at this time.

Okafor got the ball and came up to force Pekovic with his desperate strength. When the two of them competed with their strength at the basket.

Peja came out to get the ball in a cunning way, and Okafu passed the ball to Peja. Peja took the ball and shot quickly without giving Gomez a chance to get close.

Peja was taking advantage of his touch and throwing a three-pointer. "Brush!" Peja scored another three-pointer.

10:2, Gomez scored one, but soon Peja made a three-pointer. After the Hornets played the role player, Peja became the main player of the Hornets' scoring.

The two teams competed for role players at the beginning, and the main players were hidden first. In this case, the Timberwolves suffered a loss.

Because the Hornets were prepared and designed many role players' tactics, the Timberwolves did not have such preparations. So after playing for 5 minutes in the first half, the Timberwolves fell behind again.

15:7, the Timberwolves fell behind by 8 points. At this time, McHale saw that the main lineup was insufficient in attack power.

He started to replace Curry. Curry was not a perfect player on the defensive end, but Curry was so sharp on the offensive end.

At this time, the Hornets did not have too many outside scorers, and the Timberwolves would not suffer any losses when they replaced Curry. Moreover, when the opponent played role players, Curry had a lot of room to play.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Timberwolves replaced Curry first. In the first round of Curry's debut, the Timberwolves immediately played Curry's off-ball tactic.

Moreover, Curry's no-ball tactic was played in conjunction with Wang Kai's no-ball tactics. Wang Kai started running from the left and Curry started running from the right.

The Timberwolves run without the ball and the Hornets must give up one, compared to Wang Kai and Curry's destructive power is indeed smaller.

So at this time, once Curry ran out, the opportunity immediately appeared. When Curry ran to the wing, no one came to defend Curry.

Curry's shot in the last game was indeed bad. Today, the Hornets relaxed their defense against Curry intentionally or unintentionally. Curry is a pitcher who cannot be empty. In essence, he is actually the same as Peja, so once there is an open position, Curry takes the ball decisively and takes a steadily three-pointer.

"Brush!"

Curry had an open space at the beginning of the game today, so the opening feel was very good. Once a shooter made the first shot well, he would most likely make a very smooth shot in the future.

As the head coach, McHale knows Curry very well. When he saw Curry coming, he knew that today's game was easy to play, at least someone scored in the first half.

Wang Kai naturally knew Curry's style, so he immediately gestured to Fery after Curry scored, allowing the team to continue playing Curry's tactics.

The Hornets are playing very well now, so they don't care too much about Curry's projection.

The Hornets came over again and wanted to hit Peja's projection, but after half a quarter of the game, Gomez had already found Peja's pulse.

Gomez now sees that Peja has no ability to move, and he just sticks his body tightly on Peja's body. Wherever Peja goes, Gomez will stick it to Peja. No matter where Peja goes, Gomez will stick it to Peja's body.

This will greatly affect Peja's shooting, and Gomez's use of this kind of battle can seriously consume Peja's physical strength.

Once Peja's physical strength is insufficient, the effect of the game will be several times off. At this time, Peja got the basketball, and it turns out that it has become much softer and failed to win the basketball.

It only takes a few minutes to use Peja. After a few minutes, the physical strength is gone, and Peja's effect disappears.

The Hornets missed a long shot, and the Timberwolves came over again without any hesitation, but Wang Kai and Curry ran against each other.

At this time, the Hornets' defense finally improved a little, and Paul came over to defend Curry horizontally.

However, Paul also had a problem with Curry's defense, which was that he was not tall enough. Curry was a player who mainly shot. When he took the ball, he saw that it was Paul and immediately pointed a step backwards in front of him.

With a quick retreat and a quick three-pointer, Paul was not tall enough, Curry shot too fast, and Curry took advantage of the little space.

"Brush!"

Curry made another shot from Paul's head, and Curry made two consecutive three-pointers, and immediately changed the score to 13:15.

The Hornets' hard-working accumulation in the first half of the quarter instantly turned into ashes. This is the danger of a scorer with strong explosive power. He can instantly change the situation of the game.

After Curry made two consecutive shots, the Hornets couldn't calm down. Scott came up and asked the team to take care of Curry.

The Hornets have been focusing on taking care of Wang Kai, but now they have to focus on taking care of Curry, and the defensive pressure has suddenly increased.

While the defense has increased sharply, the pressure on the offensive end is also greater, because Curry scored continuously, and the Hornets must score at this time.

At this time, Okafor went deep into the basket and wanted to play Pekovic, but at this time Pekovic was already used to Okafor's attack. Pekovic was pressing against Okafor tightly, and Okafor was very difficult to attack after being targeted.

Players outside of superstars are like this, and they are very afraid of targeted defense. Once they use targeted defense, they are basically bound. However, superstars can often break the constraints of ordinary rules with their extraordinary physical fitness.

This is the charm of superstars. In short, superstars are not Earthlings, and they don’t follow the rules that most people follow when playing basketball.

Okafor is not a superstar, so once he is targeted, Okafor will find it difficult to score.

He finally threw the basketball out to West for handling. West still had the ability to play singles with the ball. He leaned against Jefferson with the ball, and then took a neat step back and dodged away from Jefferson's mid-range.

"Brush!"

Jefferson scored the first point at the beginning of the game today, and the weight of these two points was very heavy.

Today, Jefferson is like Paul. He has played hiddenly at the beginning and does not take the initiative to attack. Now he is in a difficult situation when the team is in trouble.

However, just when West made a shot, the Timberwolves simply handed the basketball over to Curry to control it in the backcourt.

Curry held the ball personally, and the Hornets' defense was a little difficult, because Devin Brown was defending Wang Kai, and the height difference between Peja and Curry was too big. Paul was still staring at Fier, who was also a shooter who caught the ball.

As a result, Curry took the ball over, and a simple change of direction was easily shaken away Peja. He reached the free throw line and raised his hand and easily shot a mid-range.

Curry scored 8 points in a row on the court, rewriting the score to 15:17, and the difference was still two points.

The Hornets' advantage was shortened instantly, and Scott quickly called another timeout. Scott suddenly saw Curry's explosive scoring power, and he immediately replaced Pekovic with Corison.

Corrison on the Hornets obviously targeted Curry. Corrison is fast and ruthless, and it will cause great interference when defending Curry. Moreover, with Corrison's personality, he will definitely attack Curry, which is also a challenge to Curry's defensive level.

The Timberwolves broke the deadlock with a mixed lineup, and the Hornets also fought with a mixed lineup.

After the timeout, the Hornets really started playing with Corrison. Corrison is a typical chaotic defender. His best attitude is to get the chestnut from the fire and play singles alone by dribbling the ball.

Now facing a player like Curry who has a slightly weak defense, he immediately played very easily, shaking up quickly, raising his head and making a fake move, then immediately pulled up and jumped up and made a quick stop shot.

"brush!"

Collison's offense was pretty good, and he came up and scored 2 points.

The Hornets' role player is still scoring continuously. The Timberwolves seem to have identified Curry, and they still push forward the ball and play Curry's off-ball tactics.

The Timberwolves players understand Curry and recognize Curry. They all know that Curry's explosive scoring power will be far better than Curry once he becomes sharp.

Curry ran out after half a circle this time. When he received the ball again, the Hornets really strengthened it. Corey and West all rushed to chase Curry.

Curry was not double-teamed by these two people on the sideline. Just when the Hornets thought they had finally completed a defense, Curry passed the ball behind the back and hung it directly into the hands of Fier in the bottom corner.

Fye had an open space at this moment, and he immediately took the ball and took the ball to "pull!"

The Timberwolves threw another three-pointer in, 18; 19, and the Timberwolves chased the score difference by only 1 point.

The point where Curry is stronger than Corey and the general drawback is that Curry not only has strong scoring ability, but also has strong main attack ability. However, ordinary drawbacks only have shooting keys and no passing keys.

Curry can score and pass the ball. At this time, the Hornets' effect on Corey was offset.

Moreover, Corey is a scoring player with a draw, and his score is not very stable. He is not as explosive as Curry when he draws, and his passes are not as good as Curry, so the Hornets have no success in the matchup.

At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves finally recovered the score. At 23:23, the two teams ended in a draw.

It's hard to say who won this situation. Although the Timberwolves caught up with the score, the Hornets also successfully passed the first quarter.

Judging from the current Hornets' tactics, Paul will definitely save it for the second half, and West will definitely show his strength in the middle. You must know that these two people basically did not play in the first quarter.
Chapter completed!
