Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife

Chapter 38: 1 more nerve knife

118 to 96, the Lakers finally beat the Timberwolves with 22 points at their home, and won the second victory of the new season.

In the first quarter, Li Wan scored 12 points in the first 5 minutes and scored 15 points in the first 5 minutes, and scored 15 points in the whole quarter, helping the Lakers in the first 5 minutes. At 8 minutes and 15 seconds into the second quarter, he had a 20-point lead.

This wave of his outbreak completely put the game into "garbage time".

Kobe Bryant played 25 minutes and 14 seconds in the whole game, "clocked" in three quarters and got off work. He easily got 20 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. Of the 8 assists, 4 of them were assists to Li Wan, and they were all obtained in the second quarter. .

A reporter asked Kobe after the game why he kept passing the ball to Li Wan.

This caused a heated discussion during the second quarter of the game.

Kobe has long thought of the answer: "You think I can't pass the ball, the Timberwolves also think I can't pass the ball, and I know you all think I can't pass the ball, it's that simple!" In short, you are in the first place. Layer, I'm on the fifth floor.

Phil Jackson, who was in the atmosphere, licked his lips, and "I believe in you" almost blurted out.

Li Wan continued to play in the "garbage time", playing in 30 minutes and 14 seconds, scoring 21 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals. The dazzling performance in the second quarter made the Timberwolves choose to devote all their attention to him when the game was hopeless. In the second half, he just took advantage of the slack, scoring two goals and making a foul. Overall, his condition was not good. - This also made him think of a question, during the two minutes when the "Nervous Knife" badge was lit, was he in a full state, otherwise he should not be able to hit consecutive hits in his state tonight. Of course, this remains to be verified later.

However, under his restraint, the other Lakers players who played in "garbage time" have good statistics.

Jordan Farmar scored 16 points and 5 assists; Vujacic scored 14 points and 4 rebounds; Turiaf also scored a "double-double" of 10 points and 10 rebounds.

The only person who remained calm after winning the game was Bynum, who played well in the opening game. After he scored 6 points in the first quarter, his performance gradually suppressed Al Jefferson. The final whistle sounded and his data was frozen. In the 13 points, 8 rebounds and 1 block. "New Wolf King" completely crushed him with 22 points, 13 rebounds and 2 blocks.

Brewer was also a little depressed. He was full of fighting spirit to fight against Li Wan, but it ended before it started. In the second half, he scored 7 points, which is actually more than Li Wan, but after the second quarter, who would say that he performed better than Li Wan!

He finally failed to complete "revenge" and fell in front of Li Wan and his team again.

Li Wan in the NCAA Finals is "crazy" enough, but after coming to the NBA, this "crazy" has the omens of becoming more and more "crazy"!

Frustrated, he sent a message to his college teammates as soon as he returned to the locker room at the end of the game: I have no more, I will see yours.

—It's okay, bro, look at me.

The person who responded to his message for the first time was Al Horford, who was the next fastest player in the "Florida Five" to play against the Lakers.

Li Wan's performance in this game once again detonated social media.

There have been two games in the regular season so far, and this rookie has played double-digit performances in a single quarter. This game with the Timberwolves was even more awesome. In the early stage, the hand was obviously cold and only 1-of-6 from the field, and suddenly broke out and scored 11 points.

ESPN's famous commentator and Blazers legend Bill Walton said after watching the game: "This will be another nerve knife, at least he has shown such potential!"

Li Wan really did not expect that he would be called a "nerve knife" so quickly.

It's only been two regular season games, isn't it too sloppy?

Of course, after the Lakers played their third game of the regular season, he immediately felt that Bill Walton was right!

The Lakers' third game, ushered in the first "away game" of the season.

Said to be "away", but in fact it is home.

Because their opponent is the Los Angeles Clippers.

Although the retired jerseys belonging to the Lakers on the ceiling were covered with black cloth, the logo on the floor was also replaced by the Clippers.

But how many fans in Los Angeles like the Clippers?

Just look at the whole atmosphere in the auditorium that night. In the auditorium on the left, the fans held up the banner "Make the Lakers Great Again". The northwest corner was full of Kobe posters, and the east was full of "Lakers." Come on" and "Nervous knife Li Wan" these slogans.

It's hard to believe that this is the home of the Clippers.

Li Wan was still in a sluggish state in this game. He made four or five shots in front of him and only hit one goal.

However, the performance of the last game with the Timberwolves was still in sight, and Phil Jackson chose to believe it.

As soon as the third quarter of the second half came up, his trust was also rewarded. Li Wan "woke up" and used 9 points in a single quarter to help the team expand to a double-digit score during this period.

The Clippers finally lost the game at their "home", 99 to 110, with a score difference of 11 points, and suffered a 3-game losing streak.

If Li Wan remembers correctly, the Clippers ended up finishing fourth from last in the Western Conference this season. And it was officially demolished and rebuilt the following year.

To say that the "stingy" owner of the Clippers has a really bad brain. If you let "Master Baylor", a lifelong champion without a championship, as the team's general manager, can he form a championship team?

If you can't make it, you don't have the ability to know!

After the game, the Clippers' rookie this year, Al Thornton, who was the 14th pick in the first round of 2007, took the initiative to say hello to Li Wan.

The two of them didn't have much interaction before, and they didn't even say a word.

Therefore, Li Wan was a little puzzled when he saw that he was so active.

Of course he didn't know that Al Thornton was so enthusiastic because he defeated the University of Florida in the finals.

As students at Florida State University, Florida has always been a mortal enemy in their eyes—in fact, every state university is basically a mortal enemy relationship with the state university. In addition to Florida and Florida State, Michigan and Michigan State University are also deadly enemies.

The students at Florida State University couldn't be happier to see the University of Florida lose so suffocatingly.

Li Wan finally got 12 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists tonight, and his performance was not good. Except for the 9 points in the single quarter, he only scored 3 points in the whole game...

But because of the attack of the "nerve knife" attribute, he once again became the focus of heated discussions the next day.

The Lakers continue their road game, this time for real.

They will fly to Washington to challenge the Wizards!
