I really just want to be a role player

Chapter 347 The first time you make a move, you will see blood, not just rubbing soft goods outside!

It's the Dallas Morning News: On the evening of October 10, Nowitzki teamed up with new aid Subei, scored 31 points, defeated Anthony, who had no desire to fight, and won 58 consecutive victories at the beginning of the new season! (Note: Dirk 3+Su Bei 40 points. The reason why they scored together is because Su Bei guarded Anthony.)
Sports Illustrated: Another narrow victory, the Dallas Mavericks are [-]-[-] against everyone, but they can win by taking risks, vividly showing the winning talent of the regular season champion! !
USA TODAY: Old Boy Dallas set sail, got off to a good start, and won three consecutive victories! !

ESPN reports: The winning streak is not good enough, Dallas has entered the cold winter of the schedule in November, and is about to usher in the devil's schedule.

……

January 11, Staples Center Arena.

The Mavericks beat the Clippers by 109 points 88-21 away, extending their winning streak to four games.

The No. 09 pick in 13, Lang Griffin, made 7 of 7 shots, 3 of 17 free throws, and scored 9 points and [-] rebounds. Although the Clippers lost, Griffin's passionate and explosive basketball style is very attractive.

It's just a pity that Griffin didn't have enough ball possessions. Roundfaced Deng and Kaman were obviously pressing him down, without a bit of force, occupying the team's first and second shots. If there is no accident, the two together Bearded Davis will be on the natural market to teach them... Griffin is pissed and there will be serious consequences!
This team is shabby, not very strong, and there are a lot of shabby things. If you want to play the game, the Clippers are now losing 3 games in a row. With such internal friction, for the Mavericks, it is a dessert in the devil's schedule. Bitter after sweet!
June 11, American Airlines Center Arena.

The Mavericks' 4-game winning streak was terminated, and the Nuggets scored 108 to 97 in the second round.

安东尼表现平平，17投9中，三分4中4，罚球6中5，进账27分5篮板4助攻4抢断。

Anthony with three points, Subei's defense is not enough at all, he can play the kaleidoscope offense to the fullest, everyone has a day to eat dumplings, what else can you do?

Miraculously, Billups' three-pointer was also very accurate, making 4 of 3 shots and scoring 18 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds.

The Mavericks' zone defense tactics were broken, and they defended two points, but the three-point defense was blown up. The Nuggets made 21 of 13 three-pointers, which was better than 18-6. The Mavericks only made 3 of [-] three-pointers. Among them, North Jiangsu accounted for [-].

Not to mention the incomparable three-pointers, and Butler made 17 of 5 shots and Barea made 6 of 1 shots.

Although Subei and Nowitzki scored 47 points together, Subei 20+ Nowitzki scored 27 points, in terms of offensive firepower, they still fell behind.

After all, the Nuggets are a team that can win more than 50 times, and their shots are accurate. The Mavericks have a better lineup and sit at home.

"The November schedule is the devil's schedule for the Mavericks, and it didn't come for nothing.

Except for the first easy game against the Clippers.

The second game is against the Nuggets, the third game is against the Celtics, and then, the second game against the Grizzlies, the 76ers, the Bobcats led by Paul, the Magic, the Eagles, the Pistons...

The remaining four are even better, Thunder, Spurs, Heat, Rockets..."

The ones that are easy to chew on are the Clippers, 76ers, Pistons and Rockets.

June 11, American Airlines Center Arena.

Night falls.

At this time, the Mavericks' home court is about to hold a regular game against the Celtics. The lights are bright and the crowds are crowded.

During the warm-up, Nowitzki and Pierce, who also debuted in 98, chatted about a few cents.

Later, there was a day when Garnett added a few cents, and the same four big fronts, this bit of face, still has to be given.

Kidd chatted with Ray Allen, and Marion chatted with his former Heat teammate O'Neal.

Su Bei also said hello to Lang. After all, when he was in the Lakers, he won two championships in front of the Celtics, so he couldn't pretend not to know each other.

The two teams are both old boys' teams, and they have a lot of acquaintances.

At this time, on the big screen in the arena, the starting lineups of the two sides for tonight's match were also displayed.

The Celtics started five tigers, O'Neal, Garnett, Pierce, Ray Allen, Rondo.

The Mavericks started with five players, Chandler, Nowitzki, Butler, Subei and Kidd.

The game was broadcast live by TNT radio station, and Barkley partnered with Kenny Smith for commentary.

"Both teams are a team of veterans teaming up to fight for the championship. The lineup is strong and they are performing well in the regular season.

Now the Mavericks are 4-1 and have just lost their winning streak.

The morale of the Celtics is high, and now they have won 5 consecutive victories, full of momentum.

If I had to choose a team to guess in advance, I think the Mavericks will win the game.

Kenny, what do you think? "

"If there was a bet, I wouldn't bet on the Celtics to win.

Don't ask, the question is that although the Green Army won the game, they played very hard.

The first three games, against the Bucks and Bulls, all went to overtime before the winner was decided.

In addition, in the last game, they played against the talented Thunder team, and they also fought very fiercely.

Although the Celtics won the game, the consumption was too much and there was basically no rest time. The Mavericks played back-to-back away games.

Let’s look at the ages of the Green Army’s starting Five Tigers…”

Garnett was born in 1976 and is almost 35 years old.

Ray Allen gave birth to 75 and is almost 36 years old.

Pierce was born in 77 and is almost 34 years old.

O'Neal Jr. was born in 78 and is almost 33 years old.

At this point, O'Neal is still injured. If the Sharks are not injured, they will be the starting center at the age of almost 39 years old.

At this age, you say the Green Army will be strong, I believe it, but you say the Green Army can last?

I just wanted to ask: Ah SIR, did you make a mistake?

"Indeed, to say the Mavericks are an old-boys team compared to the Celtics would be a disqualification.

The Mavericks are really old, there is one and only Kidd, and the others are all in their prime..."

beep-!
The whistle blew, and the referee threw the basketball high up. O'Neal, who had been seriously injured, was basically on the floor. Chandler easily jumped to win and scored the first attack for the Lakers.

Su Bei rushed up immediately, taking advantage of their old age and wanting to take advantage of their physical strength and talent, Lei Allen quickly followed.

On the other side, Butler also ran with Pierce.

"Rondo presses and interrupts Kidd's fast-break attempt to pass the ball.

The Mavericks wanted to bully the Celtics' old front line, but they didn't know that it was Kidd, the oldest player on the court at this time, who was pegged by the young Rondo instead.

The game dragged into a positional battle, Kidd dribbled the ball to the top arc, and gave the ball to Butler to break through..."

It's still the DDM tactic of dealing cards from the top arc, the almighty Butler, breaking through Pierce, there is nothing wrong with this choice.

"Three-threat walk, kick-start, change direction, Butler gets past Pierce.

Athletic crushing, getting to the paint, pulling up two-point jump shots..."

Swish-!
With his hands up and down, Butler accurately hit two points.

In other words, Butler's state is very unstable, but his technique and body are close to Dacheng, and if his state is online, his impact is still unstoppable.

Pierce was exploded at the beginning of the lateral move.

From the moment the Big Three of the Celtics were formed, Pierce's defense against strong teams will be brought up for discussion.

No way, now that I'm older, it's not surprising that I can't stand it.

Off the court, Rivers was very calm. The game had just started, and he hadn't figured out the state of the opponent's players, so he could only rely on himself.

It's okay if you can't stand it, just collect information carefully and wait for the next round to target it.

"Rondo also got the ball up the court, picked up Kidd's homework, and came to the top arc to deal.

There is no suspense, Pierce, as the number one scorer in the Green Army, was flopped. "

"Catching the ball, three-threat walk-up, copying homework again.

Pierce took a step and made a breakthrough. After being followed by Butler, he immediately turned around and gave Butler a butt. Kidd's help defense was not in place yet. Pierce had already shaken his shoulders slowly, turned around, raised the ball, and raised his hand Two-point fadeaway shot..."

Kidd rushed over, just to guard against loneliness.

It all depends on Butler's personal defensive skills?

Not much!
Butler has a fierce look on his face, but he is useless to interfere with the defense.

Swish-!
2 to 2! !
Pierce dared to brag that he is the number one small forward in the league. He didn't just put money on his face indiscriminately. There is still something offensively.

Although he is almost 34 years old, he can still score 20 points and 5 rebounds this season.

Don't ask, it's Pierce's offense. It doesn't require physicality, it's technical work, so it's naturally very hard!

Off the court, Carlisle's face was calm, but he was speechless about Butler's defense in his heart.

Positive is positive, fierce is fierce, and the most important thing is efficiency?
You took it out!

"Mavericks offense, Kidd continues to flop and pulls the pass to Dirk Nowitzki at the three-point line.

After catching the ball and lifting it up, Garnett hesitated for a moment and didn't make a save. Ray Allen chose to switch defenses, but Nowitzki didn't make a shot, but was assigned to Su Bei in the right corner..."

The Celtics still rely on chain defense to win the game. The restrictions on three-pointers are really not good. The outside defense changes, and Nowitzki is taken care of. The corner three-pointer will be put into infinity.

"Without adjustment, Su Bei catches the ball, jumps up, raises his hand and makes a three-point jump shot..."

Instead of turning back, Ray Allen shrunk to the basket, ready to collect the rebound. This was a bet that there was no bullet in Su Bei's three-point pistol.

Swish-!
guessed wrong.

There are no prizes.

Su Bei's three-pointer, the first time he took a shot, he saw blood, and he was not a softie who was loitering outside!

2 to 5! !
"The Celtics' defense still focuses on guarding the two-point area and the basket.

Subei's three-pointer was completely ignored.

Three-pointers can't kill the game. This is the belief of the Celtics' chain defense.

As long as the green army doesn't care, Subei's three points will not hurt. "

"Next, see how the Celtics respond offensively?
Rondo continued to turn Pierce's cards. If he scored in the last round, he could renew his cup.

Received the ball, stepped forward with three threats, accelerated to break through the inside, turned around, but it was a jerk, turned halfway, swayed out of space, and immediately shot a two-point fadeaway jumper..."

Butler's defense couldn't keep up.

Bang-dang-!
"Pierce hit two and the basketball bounced off the rim.

Luck was on Pierce's side, the basketball bounced back, Pierce, facing the basket, rushed in, caught the ball, swung the ball, turned around and picked..."

Bang-dang-!
The iron still missed, and Pierce's second attack was also sent.

"Rebound, Celtics again, Garnett grabs the front basket.

Being stuck behind Nowitzki, he didn't play by himself, but gave the ball to Pierce who ran beyond the three-point line to shoot,..."

There is no shot you can't score, and if you can't, then the second, third...

Bang-dang-!
The basket is not used to Pierce.

Consecutive shots, still missed.

"It's useless to give a chance, Pierce is still too greedy.

He wanted to respond to Su Bei's three-pointer, but he still couldn't understand his two-pointer.

The rebound finally, finally got to Chandler.

Rondo rushed out to grab Kidd's ball, slowing down the tempo of the game.

Dribbling the ball to the frontcourt, Kidd arced the ball to Butler to break through.

Huh?
Butler didn't take the offensive line of 'I hit, I hit, I hide...', after the three-threat probe, he pulled the ball up, raised his hand and tried a three-point pull-up jumper..."

Bang-dang-!
Despite catching Pierce off guard, Butler died trying.

"Basket, sling out, Garnett rips off the rim.

Nowitzki doesn't go inside, and Chandler alone makes it really difficult for the Mavericks to grab rebounds. "

"The Celtics are still playing offensively.

Huh?
Rondo didn't deal a card, but relied on his own speed, and chose to suddenly start to accelerate. Kidd fought and retreated. Before Su Bei and Chandler's assistance came over, he pulled the ball up and raised his hand for two points to make an emergency stop. Jump shot..."

Kidd is completely useless for this kind of speed play.
However, he is not afraid. Rondo's shooting is unreliable.

"There is no bullet in your pistol!"

Swish-!
Rondo shook his fist excitedly.

He is a monster with long arms. Shooting is really a challenge for him. Fortunately, it is his own ability to shoot birds to death and get caught!

4 to 5! !
"In transition, Kidd dribbles the ball to the top arc and doesn't flip Butler's card.

Nowitzki avoided Garnett's defense, pulled to the right 50 degrees, received Kidd's pass, dribbled the ball up, O'Neal's body fell a lot, and he couldn't stop Nowitzki's post-up single .

Ray Allen was afraid of Su Bei's three-pointer, so he followed the defense closely, and did not rush to help the defense. Seeing O'Neal's defense was about to lose, Garnett swept past, but Nowitzki passed behind Garnett..."

Bang-dang-!
Chandler dunked under the left basket, and his whole body was hanging on the basket.

4 is better than 7!

Although Su Bei played soy sauce on offense, his legend was circulating on the court.

The three-pointer hanging over the head opened a big hole for the Celtics' chain defense.

The Celtics can only cool down Su Bei's three-pointer first, and let the bullets fly for a while.

"The Celtics attacked, and Rondo didn't make any waves.

The top arc continued to deal and turned over Garnett's cards.

Being defended by Dirk Nowitzki, he turned his back to the bottom line and broke through, and then used his own iron-blooded mid-range shot..."

Facing Garnett's specialty, Nowitzki can only make the best defensive moves and still listen to the gunshots.

Bang-dang-!
Fortunately, the gun didn't go off, but the basket rang.

Garnett, who is almost 35 years old, averaged only 15 points and 9 rebounds per game this season. The schedule is difficult and his state is unstable, which is not surprising.
