NBA: Duncan feels uneasy coaching Warriors

Chapter 172 Lottery Tactical Notes
G5 between the Timberwolves and the Warriors started in Minnesota.

Now holding the match point, the Timberwolves have taken the initiative in this round of the series.

The Warriors didn't give up.

But facing the Timberwolves' plan against the Warriors, Cole still hasn't found a good solution.

The Timberwolves' game is full of momentum, and they look like they are going to close the game at home.

In this game, Iguodala didn't have such a good touch, but Lol Deng frequently got open or misplaced opportunities to play inside, and he raised his touch.

The Timberwolves won another game by relying on all the soldiers without relying on the outbreak of the double star.

Curry scored 38 points in this game, but to no avail.

Timberwolves 105:98 Warriors.

The Timberwolves closed this round of the series at home with a big score: Timberwolves 4-1 Warriors.

The Timberwolves made it to the Western Conference Finals!

They will face the Spurs, who have already entered a day earlier, in the Western Conference Finals.

The Timberwolves fans at Target Center cheered loudly, everyone had a smile on their faces, and a large group of Timberwolves fans refused to leave the stadium.

The host at the scene was also very excited and continued to mobilize the emotions of the fans at the scene.

In 2004, after the Timberwolves entered the Western Conference Finals under the leadership of Garnett, they have not made the playoffs for a long, long time.

Garnett is an unforgettable memory for Timberwolves fans. Even if Garnett said harsh words to the Timberwolves when he left, he would not talk to Taylor anymore.
But in Garnett's retirement season, he still returned to the Timberwolves, and Timberwolves fans will never forget Garnett.

Just because Garnett is the one who brought the Timberwolves to the pinnacle of team history.

Although the Timberwolves did not play an opponent in the Western Conference Finals that season, this is still the pinnacle of their team history. The Timberwolves have never entered the Finals.

This time not only re-entered the playoffs, but also rushed to the Western Conference Finals in one fell swoop.

When Su Chen took the initiative to walk towards the warrior camp, the audience stood up and applauded Su Chen.

Now there are no Wolves fans who still dislike Su Chen's previous deal. The Timberwolves have many high picks in the draft, but the Timberwolves have not been like that for so many years.

Even if Su Chen squandered all the draft picks for the next ten seasons, it is acceptable to the current Timberwolves fans.

A Western Conference final, win or not, is worth it.

It's been too long since Minnesotans have tasted anything like this.

Su Chen rarely took the initiative to go to the opposing camp to say hello and hug, but the Warriors had a special meaning to him.

This is the starting point of his career. If he didn't get such an opportunity in the Warriors, he would have to hang around in the league for many years even if he had a system, and he might not have the opportunity.

The NBA is a place where seniority is ranked. Even the young coaches have been assistant coaches for many years before they got the opportunity by virtue of their excellent results.

The opportunity in the Warriors is a springboard for his career.

He is still grateful to the Warriors players. His knowledge and system are one aspect. If the players are not strong, it will be difficult to win those games.

Of course, after seeing Su Chen coming, Curry and the others also came over immediately.

For Su Chen, these players are the ones who have achieved his current achievements.

But for players like the Warriors, Su Chen is also someone who has made them, especially those who are not of such a high tactical status.

Although they lost the game, Curry Thompson and others responded enthusiastically to Su Chen.

Even Green, who had a conflict with Giannis, didn't flinch at Su Chen, but responded positively to Su Chen.

When Curry and Su Chen embraced, they pulled their jerseys to cover their mouths and exchanged greetings with Su Chen.

Cole's series was indeed dominated by Su Chen, but in the face of Su Chen's initiative to shake hands, Cole still shook hands with Su Chen in a friendly manner.

"When we meet again next season, I will be more prepared."

When Cole and Su Chen shook hands, they said something.

In fact, he was able to get the Warriors on the right track so quickly, thanks to the tactical system that Su Chen left for the Warriors.

Moreover, Cole is very smart. Now Su Chen has pointed out all the shortcomings of the Warriors.

In this offseason, he will think about ways to deal with these strategies, and the Warriors at that time are the perfect body.

"See you next season then."

After hearing this, Su Chen responded with a smile.

He knew exactly what Cole was thinking, but if he dared to use these against Cole, he was not afraid that Cole would think of a way to deal with them.

The series is over, and for the Warriors, so is their playoff run.

Although they are the defending champions, after losing to the Timberwolves, it proved that they still have a long way to go.

As for whether the Warriors lineup will be broken up because of this game, it depends on Lacob's patience, whether he will continue to use Cole or change coaches.

But for Su Chen, there is no need to think about it now.

After the series is over, reporters from well-known TV stations can directly enter the arena to interview.

"Coach Su Chen congratulates you. You led the Timberwolves to tie the best record in team history. I don't know what you want to say now."

The reporter at the scene asked Su Chen.

"I"

When Su Chen was about to answer, there was a lot of cheers and applause, which interrupted Su Chen's words.

The reporter also smiled helplessly, the decibels on the scene are too loud now.

After more than ten seconds, the cheers slowly subsided.

"I would say we are still on the road and we will remain focused."

Su Chen forgot what he had thought up, and rearranged his words.

"You defeated the defending champion, what do you think is the reason?"

The reporter continued to ask Su Chen questions.

"They still have a lot of potential that hasn't been realized. Curry Thompson is a historical-level shooter. Green can also make a lot of incredible passes. Their role players are also very capable. In short, they are very good opponents."

"We can win because we are more focused, our defense is more tenacious, and everyone is working hard to complete the tactics."

Su Chen replied to the reporter.

"The next opponent, you will face the Spurs, what do you think?"

The reporter at the scene continued to ask Su Chen questions.

"I don't know, to be honest, before the game, I have been telling the players not to think too much, don't think about the next round, and focus on the immediate game."

"I haven't studied it, but I know the Spurs are a very strong team and we need to improve our focus."

Su Chen nodded and replied.

"Thank you for the interview."

Then the reporter ended the interview.

At the end of Su Chen's interview, the audience cheered again.

Su Chen waved his hand to express his gratitude to the fans, and then walked towards the player tunnel.

On both sides of the player tunnel, many fans reached out for high fives, and some took out pens and jerseys for Su Chen's autograph.

Su Chen was in a good mood for this match.

Not only responded with some high fives, but also signed two jerseys for two young fans.

Su Chen returned to the hotel in the team's car.

The first game will be played in San Antonio, but now the players have only played high-intensity games, and they are going to take a rest before flying to San Antonio.

And Su Chen still has things to do.

"The Warriors are a solid A-level team, otherwise it would be too much."

Su Chen opened the system interface.

At this time, there was indeed a system message.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning and scoring the series of A-level and above teams, and a lottery can be conducted."

Su Chen was not surprised by this piece of information.

On the contrary, Su Chen would be surprised if there was no such news.

The Trail Blazers are at least an A-level team. If the Warriors don't count, it would be too fake.

However, Su Chen felt that the Blazers were a bit like an A-level team that got stuck in a bug.

The actual combat power of the Blazers is actually not very strong.

But there is a 75-year-old Lillard, which should have raised his rating a lot. Of course, this is just Su Chen's guess.

Su Chen didn't know how the system would score.

"If you want to play the Spurs next game, it will be comfortable to have a powerful skill or prop."

Su Chen rubbed her hands expectantly.

This season, the Spurs are really the strongest enemy. After all, according to the original memory, the championship of this season is the Spurs.

The Big Three of the Heat were broken up directly this season.

After all, the Spurs eliminated the Heat with a big score of 4 to 1. The Heat's Big Three are already very weak.

The Spurs' games against the Heat were always by a score of more than 20 points and more than [-] points.

The Heat beat the Spurs 98-96.

In that game, James made three of three three-pointers and scored 35 points.

And that game was also the epitome of the entire series.

Wade has only averaged 17 points per game this season, and it is difficult to give James too much support.

And this is Wade's average per game for the entire playoffs. If only the finals are counted, Wade's average points per game will be even lower.

Bosh also averaged 15 points per game, and other role players are getting older and less able to give James a lot of support.

Therefore, the Spurs are the most powerful opponent.

The Spurs who can survive this season, in fact, the Heat in the finals are relatively easy to beat.

The Spurs have Leonard to limit James, and the Timberwolves have Iguodala.

These two are able to get FMVP by defending James, and the effect is similar, and the Timberwolves have other defenders who can face James.

"Extract."

With anticipation, Su Chen started to draw this reward.

"The extraction is complete, and the B-level item [Tactical Notes] has been issued."

When Su Chen saw Class B, his face suddenly collapsed.

In the last round, he had an A-level skill against a weaker Trailblazer, but he became a B-level skill when he defeated a stronger Warrior.

However, this has never been rewarded according to the difficulty of the opponent, but a lottery.

"On the first draw, there was an S-rank, and now it's all broken copper and iron."

Su Chen felt helpless.

Anyway, let's take a look at this new item first.

Su Chen clicked on [Tactical Notes] to check.

【Tactical Notes (Grade B) - deepen players' impression of tactical options and strategies, increase team coordination and tactical performance, and increase team atmosphere by +10%. 】

Su Chen was stunned.

Originally, according to the previous description, Su Chen thought it was an increase in the team's organizational strength, but then it turned out that it was not an added attribute.

Add a team atmosphere
"The team's organization ability +10% is also good."

Su Chen complained weakly.

But if you think about it carefully, the S-level simulation glasses only add 20% to the team's organizational ability. If this tactical notebook can increase 10% of the organizational ability, it will be more or less A-level.

"Or it's just a B-grade item."

Su Chen shook his head.

However, Su Chen looked at the attributes of the analog glasses. This tactical notebook should be linked equipment with the analog glasses, but there are overlaps.

For example, in the first article, "Deepen the player's impression of tactical options and strategies", the simulation glasses instantly simulated a thousand times when arranging tactics, which in itself deepened the player's tactical impression.

It seems a bit tasteless to deepen it, but it may be useful.

But the second is okay, that is to increase tactical performance.

The performance of players in tactics is different. Some players perform well in a tactical system, and some players perform mediocre in a tactical system.

Increased tactical performance should more or less improve.

As for the team atmosphere +10%, it should be regarded as an atmosphere adjustment.

Generally speaking, this can be regarded as a prop of the same system as the analog glasses.

"Look at the lower panel."

Su Chen opened her panel as usual.

【Host】: Su Chen
[Items]: Simulated glasses (S-level), mid-bottle reusable energy drink (A-level), tactical notes (B-level)

Continuous effect: two charges are obtained within 1 minute, and the player's impact on the basket will automatically take effect. Free throws consume a charge. 】

【Tactical Notes (Grade B) - deepen players' impression of tactical options and strategies, increase team coordination and tactical performance, and increase team atmosphere by +10%. 】

As for the other category, Su Chen didn't think much about it.

After pumping so many times, I was stunned that I didn't draw out the classified things.

But looking at her panel, Su Chen was still very satisfied.

"Large and small things, I have smoked them 8 times in total. Most of the A-level and B-level things are quite useful."

Su Chen looked at her panel and commented.

"Play the Spurs next round."

Su Chen rubbed his chin and began to think.

The Spurs this season, if they say they are strong, they are really strong, but if they say they are particularly strong, so strong that they are invincible, that is an exaggeration.

If it's really that strong, then it won't be a tiebreaker with the Mavericks.

It wasn't that Parker broke out in the tiebreaker, and the Spurs were almost blacked out again.

In the original timeline, the Mavericks' lineup was relatively poor.

The old Nowitzki, the old Carter, and Monta Ellis, Calderon, and old Marion.

The Spurs have always been difficult to deal with that kind of play that doesn't follow the routine.

Of course, Su Chen didn't want to refer too much to the Mavericks' tactics against the Spurs.

An unreasonable style of play, to put it bluntly, is to shoot against the head, which is too hard to feel.

It can only be said that the Spurs are not as strong as they really imagined.

Even the Spurs, who retained this championship lineup, were eliminated by the Clippers in the first round of the next season.

"This Spurs conducts the ball fast, and it is really good to rely on coordination, but this point of the Timberwolves' defense can be rotated."

Su Chen took out his notebook for recording tactics and wrote them down.
