Chapter 432

After the game, Bruce did not accept the invitation from the media, but sat alone in the locker room, thinking about something with his head down!

So far this season, the Warriors have done very well.

However, their game against the Mavericks just now really made him frown secretly.

Duncan and Nowitzki are undoubtedly the absolute core of the Warriors, but in terms of details and tactical understanding, they and other players are like two circles. It seems that they initiate offense and defense, but more are other players. Dependent style of play.

"Jingle Bell!!"

The cell phone in his pocket rang, and Bruce shook his head secretly, then picked it up helplessly.

"Haha, Bruce, are you interested in having supper with me??"

Hearing the familiar voice on the phone, Bruce couldn't help showing a hint of helplessness on his face: "Hi, Donnie, what's the matter?"

With his current mood, he really didn't want to accompany him around the corner, so he asked directly.

"Hehe, it sounds like you're not in a good mood!" Nelson couldn't help but feel a little bit of joy when he heard the displeasure in Bruce's tone.

"Okay, Donnie, I'm really feeling a little uncomfortable right now. Is there anything I can say directly?" Bruce frowned. Hearing the noisy footsteps outside the locker room, he went directly into the small lounge.

"Well, how should I say it!" Nelson hesitated a little, even though his request is very likely to be rejected, don't try to believe what the final result will be!

"I'm very interested in your Argentine kid, do you have any ideas??"

Hearing Nelson's words, Bruce subconsciously became angry. For a moment, resisting the desire to refuse immediately, he said flatly: "Sorry, Manu is not for sale!"

"Hehe, there is no absolute thing in this alliance. If you are interested in Nick (Van Exel), I will be more than happy to give him to you!"

Hearing Nelson's straightforward quotation, Bruce was really speechless for this crazy old man!

With Van Exel's ability, although his financial ability has declined somewhat due to his age, his strength on the offensive end is still what other teams need.

However, for the Warriors, they have no desire to get him, and the team does not need a guy who is cranky and is fighting the refs.

"Sorry, Donnie, we have to get out of here!" Bruce said casually, and then hung up the phone!

In the manager's room of the Mavericks, Nelson looked at the receiver in his hand and couldn't help showing a hint of helplessness on his face: "It's really rude!"

Afterwards, as the players packed their stuff, they all boarded a flight to Apolis!

On the plane, watching the players fall asleep very quickly one by one, Bruce seemed to be infected by them and felt the attack of exhaustion!

He frowned, and glanced at Wilkens who had already fallen asleep beside him, but he couldn't calm down at all!

Judging from the current lineup of the Warriors, they no longer need to add any players.

But judging from today's game, even Bruce, a layman who knows a little about tactics, can see a little bit of weirdness in the team!

Thinking of this, Bruce turned his head to look at Wilkens who was still sleeping with a tired face and frowning, and muttered to himself, "What will you do?"

This season, the Timberwolves played a very surprising game under the leadership of Garnett and Troy Hudson.

Until now, the team that used to be on the verge of the playoffs has suddenly undergone tremendous changes after signing some players this season!

This season until now, Garnett and Duncan are in the fierce competition for the regular season MVP!

With Garnett averaging 23 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists per game, he played the first half that shocked everyone.

Continuing with his current momentum, he will undisputedly win the MVP trophy at the end of the season!

However, due to playing time factors, Duncan only has 2 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists less than Garnett, but if he can set his playing time at more than 35 minutes, his statistics will not be inferior to Garnett !

Now, the upcoming battle between the two, just like the previous one with the Mavericks, has attracted the attention of a large number of fans and media!

As the plane of the Warriors landed slowly, when they walked out of the pick-up channel with sleepy eyes, a large number of media quickly surrounded them with a whoosh!

"Tim, do you think this game will win the final victory??"

"Bruce, who do you think will be the MVP of this season?"

Question after question was thrown to Duncan, Bruce and others like a bombardment. Every reporter looked very excited!

For this question, Bruce didn't want to answer. He was still thinking about the team's affairs, so he replied a few words casually, and quickly left here with the players!

Entering the hotel, Bruce called Duncan directly into his room.

"Boss, what's the matter with you?" Duncan asked with some doubts.

Looking at Duncan, Bruce suddenly smiled: "Tim, after this season, you have to work harder. I don't want the highest personal honor to fall to another team!"

"Hehe, the season is not over yet, who knows the final result!" Duncan smiled indifferently, and then said, "You want to ask about my team?"

"That's right!" Bruce said very simply, not surprised at all.

Duncan looked at Bruce with a serious face, and after thinking secretly, he stared at him confidently: "We have found some very good methods for the team's tactics and running-in, even though it seems a bit out of touch now, we Will have it all sorted out before the playoffs start!"

"Oh?" Bruce looked at him with some doubts, and then said with a very serious expression: "You know what we need now, you are one of the core of the team, I hope you can help your teammates a lot, Don't make them dependent on you!"

"I will!" Duncan said with a smile, and then he left here!

"I hope so!" Bruce looked at Duncan's back and couldn't help sighing secretly!

At 8:30 in the evening, when the game between the Warriors and Timberwolves started, the two teams directly launched a fierce battle!

In the first quarter, with Garnett's good performance, the Timberwolves temporarily led the Warriors by 30:25.

However, as the two sides replaced the substitutes in the second quarter, the Warriors' advantage directly surpassed the Timberwolves by several grades.

In the center-forward match, Wallace really taught center Mark Jackson an impressive lesson with his strong defense and control of the rebound!

Ginobili's agility and weirdness made Ingel Rakosevich, who is also from Europe, lose his proportions under his impact time and time again.

If it wasn't for Joe Smith to score some points in the duel with Barkley, otherwise the Timberwolves would be defeated by the Warriors in an instant!

Philip Sanders looked ugly, looking at his own players who were constantly being ravaged by the Warriors' substitutes on the court, let alone how depressed he was!

This season, because of the performance of the Timberwolves, Sanders is likely to eventually compete for the best coach of the year.

However, the current situation of being ravaged by the Warriors really made him feel ashamed!

"drop!"

A whistle sounded, and Sanders called a timeout helplessly!

Garnett looked at the dejected appearance of his teammates, he really felt deeply powerless!

Since the beginning of this season, he has used his practical actions to bring great motivation to this team.

But when he played alone, the performance of the rest of his teammates really made him feel helpless!

Now, seeing his teammates being taught mercilessly by the Warriors time and time again, while he was helpless, he felt a huge anger in his heart!

"Philip, I need to play!!"

Sanders, who was yelling at the players, suddenly heard Garnett's request, and he couldn't help feeling helpless!

He is very aware of what Garnett has brought to this team, but because of market problems, some better free agents are basically unwilling to come here!

Unless their boss is generous once, with this lineup, even if they make it to the finals of the Western Conference, they will leave in a very embarrassing appearance.

"Kevin you."

"Philip!! This is my territory!!" Garnett said word by word, exuding a trace of violence from his whole body.

Seeing his firm and fierce look, Sanders finally accepted his request helplessly!

When the two sides returned to the field, the lineup changed again!

After Wilkens saw the look between Garnett and Sanders, he knew exactly what the other party was going to do!

So, after thinking about it for a moment, he directly sent Duncan to the field!

The confrontation between the two super power forwards made the fans extremely excited!

"Tim, I will find a way to blow you up!" Garnett said in a deep voice to Duncan who was about to come, and then turned his head and ran forward!

"Hehe, interesting!" Duncan's eyes flashed with a strong fighting spirit, and he immediately followed!

Mark Jackson brought the ball to the frontcourt. After taking a look at his teammates' running positions, he directly handed the ball to Duncan who was already stuck inside. This is a duel between Duncan and Garnett. I don't want to stir up yellow.

At the same time as he received the basketball, Duncan put his hands firmly on his chest, leaned back tentatively, and directly started his back movement!

While Duncan launched, Garnett tried his best to push the opponent out of the penalty area. Even though he was indeed slightly inferior in strength, he still tried his best to fight Duncan with his tenacious spirit.

When Duncan pushed Garnett to the outside of the three-second zone step by step, Garnett's sudden force gave Duncan an excellent opportunity to leverage.

Under Garnett's force, he turned his whole body quickly. With his right arm, he swept Garnett's body away, and with a small throw, he directly hit the ball into the basket!

"pretty!!"

Bruce stood up excitedly and applauded Duncan's attack vigorously!

Smooth turns, solid inside moves, even though this is the Timberwolves' home court, some fans still applauded Duncan's offense!

The most attractive thing in the NBA is nothing more than the duel between superstars.

Especially when Duncan and Garnett are competing for the MVP, the duel between them has brought great expectations to all fans!
