By the time Zhang Tao played again in the second quarter, the score was 32-50, and the Kings were already trailing by as many as 18 points.

Jorger called a timeout.

Zhang Tao’s face was not very good, and he walked over and whispered to Qiaogel: “Coach, leave the inside line to me, send 4 small men on the field.” ”

Jorgel also saw that the other big men were not in the state and nodded.

Zhang Tao couldn’t bear this group of pig teammates.

In the second quarter, the Kings’ re-entry lineup became Fox, Hill, Hield, Bogdan, and Zhang Tao.

The Timberwolves side is their starting lineup, Teague, Wiggins, Butler, Gibson, Towns, such a lineup is an average height of 10 centimeters taller than the Kings.

“Several big men on the king’s inner line went out of order today, except for Zhang Tao, they all seemed to be absent-minded, their defense was not as tight as the last game, it seemed that they were in trouble, Jorge made corresponding adjustments, let Zhang Tao stand alone on the inside line, and see how the king defended next.” Barkley said.

The King’s offense is not too much of a problem, the main problem is in defense, no matter how good Zhang Tao is, it is impossible to dig up these interior partners to fill the hole, not to mention that now the Timberwolves feel good, Wiggins hit two long-range three-point shots in succession, such a ball can score, really can’t fill the pit?

The Timberwolves no longer know nothing about Zhang Tao, and they played very smart in the first quarter and did not provoke Zhang Tao head-on.

Zhang Tao is also waiting for the opportunity, and he does not want to give up easily.

Zhang Tao looked at Downs, Downs is 2.13 meters tall and weighs 111 kilograms, is a big man with projection ability, he has caused a lot of problems for the King’s defense on the court, because Zhang Tao has to pull out to defend, as soon as he pulls out, it is difficult to defend the inside, Butler and Wiggins have many opportunities to attack the basket.

Zhang Tao, who suffered a dark loss, is also ready to change the team’s strategy, and he constantly analyzes the offensive and defensive defensive shortcomings of the Timberwolves to try to find their loopholes.

Thibodeau is known for his defense, his men are disciplined and tough, and the Bulls of the 10-15 season are known for their defensive toughness, even in the absence of star Rose, the Bulls can still fight other teams until the end.

It’s just that on this Timberwolves, you can’t see the shadow of the bull at all.

In order to completely reinvent the team, Thibodeau spared no effort to trade the Timberwolves’ 2017 first-round No. 7 pick, Zach LaVine and Chris Dunn for Jimmy Butler and the Bulls’ 16th overall pick in the first round in 2017.

Then signed Taki Gibson for 2 years for 28 million, Jeff Teague for 3 years for 57 million, and Jamal Crawford for 2 years for 8.9 million, trading the team’s starting point guard Rubio to the Utah Jazz in exchange for a 2018 first-round pick.

Thibodeau has also played his usual dead-grass style in previous games, with the main players averaging more than 33 minutes per game, of which Butler averaged 36.7 minutes per game, while the other substitutes did not play much time except Jamal Crawford and Nemanga Belitsa.

This transformation hasn’t improved the Timberwolves’ defense, scoring 109.5 points and conceding 107.3 points this season, and they are ranked 17th in the league on defense and 8th in offense.

It is not their defense that allows them to win, but their offense.

Even with the addition of iron-blooded titans like Butler and Gibson, the Timberwolves’ defense has not improved much.

Downs is a bit softer on the inside.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tao was ready to attack!!

In the first round after playing in the second quarter, Zhang Tao, who had made changes, immediately entered the three-second zone to engage in hand-to-hand combat with Downs.

The little man on the outside kept passing the ball on the periphery, and finally Hill sent the ball in, and Zhang Tao successfully received the ball in the three-second zone.

Zhang Tao caught the ball with both hands, turned suddenly on the spot, Tangs tried his best to harden with Zhang Tao, but unsuccessful, Zhang Tao turned around and completed the two-handed dunk through Downs!!!

“Box!!”

“Bang!!”

“Beep!!”

34 to 50

Downs was knocked out directly by Zhang Tao, and then he was also blown by the referee for blocking a foul!!!
