Alexander vs. Curry, shooting cylinder exposed! US media used James to spread his hands to mock MVP

On May 21, the Thunder led the Timberwolves 1:0. Curry James obviously didn't play but attracted attention, just because Alexander's free throw was too magical and exaggerated.

In the first game of the Western Conference Finals, the Thunder defeated the Timberwolves with 26 points, but now everyone is not paying attention to who won this game, but what they pay more attention to is how could Alexander have such an exaggerated cylinder? Why are there so many free throws? Even his free throws involved Curry and James, who had no match mission.

Curry led the team to Black Seven in the first round, but after the first injury to the Timberwolves in the second round, the Warriors were also eliminated. The Lakers were eliminated by Wolves Black Six in the first round and returned home, but why is there any relationship between these two superstars in this game now? That would be very interesting.

First of all, Alexander used various collision actions to commit fouls in this game, and sometimes he fell to the ground by himself. The Timberwolves player actually didn't touch him at all, but the referee also blew the Wolves' foul. Sometimes he elbowed his opponent, but the referee called the opponent McDaniels for a foul. American media and netizens couldn't stand this free throw scale. Alexander became the lowest-rated MVP after winning in history.

First, after the game, the US media pulled Curry in and posted three pictures, saying that there were three players whose cylinders were like this: Alexander's cylinder was simply a huge cylinder, butler's cylinder was slightly larger than his own body, and Curry's cylinder was a line in the middle, like a golden cudgel.

As the NBA MVP, his full name is Most Valuable Player. He must be at least the top three superstar in the league. Playing like this will make the game lose its viewing ability. Therefore, foreign media directly compared the cylinders of Alexander and Curry, a small stick and a huge cylinder, which is really a bit exaggerated.

And not only Curry, but James was also involved, because in the third quarter, Alexander suddenly fell to the ground without anyone touching him. At this time, 5 people from the Timberwolves team spread their arms at the same time and spread their hands directly. Why are there 9 arms? In addition to the four people on the scene, Edwards, Reed, Divenzenzo and Alexander Walker, Gobert also spread his hand on the bench.

After no one touched him but fell to the ground, the referee would call the Timberwolves foul, and they would definitely feel it was unreasonable. As we all know, James sometimes spread his hands during the game, so when James was involved, the American media mocked Alexander: "If LeBron and his teammates were on the court, they could hold this action for one minute."

James and Curry were actually pulled over because of Alexander's free throw. It is conceivable how low the attention in the Western Conference Finals is, and they can only use the old super giants to attract attention. Secondly, how ugly Alexander's free throw is. Everyone can no longer bear it, so they speak out. Which star doesn't want such a cylinder? Even with James Curry, the referee could not blew such a whistle. He did not score the ball in every round, but to foul. And what is outrageous is why among all these super giants, only Alexander's whistle is different from other people?
