Countercurrent and become a superstar

Chapter 127 Whether the Nuggets are on the second level or the third level, it really means nothing.

June 4, American Airlines Center.

Night falls.

At this time, the home court of the Mavericks is about to host the first game of the first round of the 03/04 season. The opponent is the Nuggets.

Led by Anthony, one of the top picks in the draft in 03, the Nuggets had a record of 43 wins and 39 losses, beating the Jazz by one game and securing a late playoff spot.

In other words, the record of this Nuggets team is at the top four level in the Eastern Division.

The Sonics, ranked twelfth in the Western Conference, with a record of 37 wins and 45 losses, can still squeeze into the top eight in the Eastern Conference. The wild and cruel West is evident.

During the warm-up, Nowitzki and Anthony chatted about the etiquette of a few cents.

Camby, Nash and Walker also opened a chat game of the 96 golden generation.

As for Tan Yang and Josh Howard, although they were also known as members of the 03 generation, they did not join in the fun.

To be able to arrange talents in brother basketball in advance, you must have James' talent.

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

The Nuggets' starting five are Nene Hilario, Camby, Anthony, Wash Leonard, and Mo Wenwei Miller.

The Mavericks' starting five are Nowitzki, Walker, Finley, Tan Yang and Nash.

This game will be broadcast live on TNT radio, with Barkley and Kenny Smith providing commentary.

“There’s nothing good to say!!
The Nuggets can step on the eighth spot in the Western Conference and get tickets for the playoffs. They have perfectly completed their rebuilding goals this season.

Where the Nuggets are truly competitive is at the home court of the Plateau Devils.

In the away game, I couldn't rely on the environment to push my opponent to the next level. I really can't beat him!

In the next series, as long as the Nuggets don't have their heads shaved and are eliminated in a sweep, they will make money.

One word: In this game, if you lose less, you should win.

“Indeed!!

The reason why the black eight is a miracle is because it represents the impossible.

It is impossible to happen in terms of probability, so it is a miracle.

The Nuggets' lineup is too thin, and they are not on the same level. They want to hack the Mavericks' regular season number one.

too difficult! !

Perhaps, the opportunity will appear in the first matchup, if the Nuggets gain some momentum and kill the Mavericks in the first game.

This miracle can still be dreamed of..."

What if it comes true?

The game started.

In the center of the court, the referee blew his whistle.

Beep——!
Nene Lahirio showed off his beastly physical talent and easily defeated Nowitzki to get the ball for the Nuggets' first attack.

……

"Mo Wenwei Miller controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and the first attack was a clear game.

He wanted to hit Nash by name, so he changed direction and accelerated, and he rushed in.

Hey, what the hell?
Miller went in, then jumped out again. After attracting Tan Yang's defense, he distributed the ball to Wash Leonard on the right.

Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right side, Leonard caught the ball and raised it, raising his hand as if to shoot a three-pointer. Oh no, he clicked on Tan Yang, who turned around and rushed back, and sent the damn basketball away. Back to Miller who cuts into the penalty area.

After making an air cut to get the ball again, Miller relied on Nash's pressing to lay up in three steps, drew his bow and shot an arrow..."

Swish-!
2 to 0! !
In the first round, Andre Miller used DDM tactics, "I fight, I fight, I hide, I fight again..."

He found the right opportunity and swung a 40-meter-long knife to chop down the joint defense system around Na Bu Fang and Na Bu Fang.

After the goal, Miller looked at Nash emotionally, as if he was convinced.

Also, the Nuggets use point-breaking tactics and really need to take action from Nash.

Off the court, Nuggets head coach Jeff Bzdelik nodded, very satisfied with the layout of the offense on the court.

The "Track and Field Man Sprint" style of play is still monotonous.

If you want to defeat an opponent of a different level like the Mavericks, you have to increase tactical changes and combine "virtual and real" to achieve their offensive goals more efficiently.

Looking back, Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt, leading the defense Andre Miller.

Nash didn't think twice and chose to play conventional tactics.

"Nash passed the ball to Tan Yang who was in the high post, and then cut to the right side of the 45-degree three-point line without the ball.

Oh, Tan Yang didn't hesitate at all. After catching the ball, he immediately made a wall-kicking pass.

After Nash got rid of Miller, he caught the ball and raised his hand to try for a three-point jumper..."

Nash, a top point guard, turned into a ruthless scorer in an instant. Wash Leonard was still a little uncomfortable. He didn't switch defenses in time. He could only hope that Nash would return the shot and just stay on the outside. .

Swish-!
“Cum in!!

Nash played very tough and lost two points on defense.

Returning to the offensive end, he immediately doubled back the lost points.

That’s Nash’s role on the court…”

Attack, attack, attack! !
It's already a condition of "not being able to defend". While giving points on defense, I just want to retaliate on offense.

Nash obviously has such offensive talent, you can't beat him.

After all, Nash had no choice but to live in poverty, or, no, to steal other people's homes offensively.

2 to 3! !
Off the court, Nelson never doubted Nash's offensive talent.

Nash, who has full offensive attributes, seems to be forgivable if his defense is poor. No matter how bad his defense is, it seems to be forgivable.

This is called knowing people and making good use of them!

People's energy is limited, and only a few can be top-notch players who can both attack and defend.

A lot of it, both offense and defense, was mediocre.

Nash has done one thing to the extreme, and if he actively does the other thing, it seems to be excellent.

At least, he is cheap!
Seeing this scene on the commentary table, Barkley shook his head despite the beautiful goal.

“It’s already the playoffs.

Whether it is the Nuggets or the Mavericks, the game is played at the rhythm of the regular season.

If they don't change, they are destined to not go far.

The defense is too sloppy, you can score with just one poke, and there is no sense of tightness..."

On the court, the Nuggets continued to play the basketball they are good at.

After a quick baseline serve, Andre Miller advanced with the ball, and the other four turned into "track men" and ran forward quickly.

"Run, Forrest!!"

"Don't let them catch you."

"..."

In the frontcourt, Miller passed halftime and immediately passed the ball to Anthony in the frontcourt from the left wing of the three-point line. Without thinking, he immediately raised the ball to shoot a three-pointer. After Finley moved his defensive focus forward, Immediately collect the ball to the left and make a breakthrough gesture. When Finley tried to move laterally to block Anthony's left breakthrough.

"Fake throws, real surprises, then sway left and right!!

Anthony added a change of pace, darting in like an early morning street, past Finley, the Mavericks' defensive conscience.

He rushed to the penalty area, jumped high, and faced Nowitzki's block under the basket, and made a one-handed dunk. Oh no, Anthony didn't dunk. He dumped the ball to Camby under the left basket. At this moment, the only thing left in front of Camby is the basket..."

Bang-dang——!
Camby dunked with both hands, his entire body hanging on the basket.

Snapped--!
After the goal, Camby roared and then took the initiative to high-five Anthony to celebrate.

Anthony just broke through the Mavericks' defense, and the cake he made was so delicious.

4 to 3! !
Kenny Smith said with a smile.

“The Nuggets’ offense is different from before, it’s like they have a new way of living.

Of course, this is a very reasonable change of pace.

If the Nuggets choose to compete with the Mavericks in a one-on-one duel with the stars, they are seeking death.

Only team tactics are the only formula to defeat the Mavericks in the series.

But in the final analysis, the Nuggets are just a newly rebuilt team with a thin lineup. Under their conditions, they cannot play the tacit teamwork of the Princeton system.

but……"

That kind of team spirit of "everyone for one, one for everyone" can still copy homework.

In the first round, Miller's sudden score, coupled with the pass and cut of Wash Leonard and Miller, in the second round, Anthony's breakthrough after three threats, coupled with Anthony's breakthrough point ball, assisted Camby's open shot at the basket. Basket scored.

This simple and effective teamwork between the two can not only improve the offensive efficiency, but also catch the opponent by surprise.

In the past, it was just one person killing randomly, and the attack was only on the first floor.

Now increase the cooperation between the two and advance the offense to the second level. How do you think it will be answered?
Off the court, Nelson was very calm.

After all, with the Mavericks' lineup and offensive firepower, and the Kings' Princeton system tactics, they all have the confidence to defeat the Kings with offense.

The Nuggets "borrowed" some of the team's tactical thinking and did produce good offensive results, but the offensive firepower they added was far inferior to the firepower of the Princeton system.

Therefore, the Mavericks' offense is at the ceiling of the league.

Whether the Nuggets are on the second level or the third level, it really doesn't make much sense.

No matter at which level, the Nuggets are the younger brother, and the Mavericks still have this confidence.

On the court, Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt. While continuing to pass the ball to Tan Yang, he also brought Andre Miller's defense in front of Tan Yang. Then, he continued to cut outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right without the ball. .

"Oh, it's the passing and cutting cooperation between the Mavericks' dual point guards and two shooting guards.

What the hell?

Qin Yang didn't play according to the routine. He caught the ball and pulled it out. Against Miller's block, he raised his hand and tried to shoot a three-pointer. It was too random. Is it possible..."

Andre Miller's defense is higher than Nash's, but it's definitely not as high as a few, three or four floors. It can only be regarded as a little bit above the league average. Facing Tan Yang, he doesn't care about martial ethics. A sneak attack, but he was not careless and could not dodge to block the shot. He could only bet that Tan Yang's three-point pistol was out of bullets.

Bang-dang——!
You guessed it, there were no bullets in Tan Yang's three-point pistol.

You'll die if you try, and you'll miss a three-pointer.

“Missed three points!!

Tan Yang's choice was terrible.

Sure enough, it is still unreliable to let a rookie start.

Tan Yang is still too young, and the difference between him and Anthony just now is not a billion!

Alas, the Mavericks' offense was not over. Nowitzki stepped forward and regained Tan Yang's missed basketball.

This time around, luck seems to be on the Mavericks' side.

Nowitzki got the ball, he was flanked, and the basketball was about to be lost, so he passed the ball...

Tan Yang, he cut into the penalty area and got the basketball. He jumped high and shot. Will the ball be there..."

Swish-!
The knife falls and the ball goes in.

There is no offense that cannot score. If not, then try the second time.

Qin Yang failed to score a three-pointer, but with a second two-point shot from the basket, he drove the basketball into the basket and continued the Mavericks' goal.

4 to 5! !
Snapped--!
When returning to defense, Tan Yang and Nowitzki high-fived in celebration.

"Tin, congratulations on your first scoring goal in the playoffs."

Tan Yang grinned when he heard the kind words from the future King Silver Horn.

He chose to take unreasonable shots because he wanted to score his first score after getting his first assist in the playoffs of his career.

On the commentary table, Barkley also smiled and said.

“The players on the Mavericks court really dote on Tan Yang!!
Also, Tan Yang's support organization can free Nowitzki's offense in positional battles, allowing him to focus on offense and only use it as a knife to attack the city and pull out the ground.

Defense can also fill holes for Nash's poor defense.

Occasionally, he can use three-point shooting to threaten the opponent's defense. This kind of organizational 3D role player is just a fucking rookie. It's cheap and practical, and it's really good..."

If you have the strength, I still don’t threaten the support, so I will naturally pamper you.

On the court, the Nuggets attack.

Andre Miller continued to name Nash, which was the key to breaking the game.

A simple tactic like attacking Nash is still too good. No one would choose to challenge the difficult problem and give up on Nash's scoring question.

"here we go again!!
Nash is simply not a championship-level controller.

When he is on the court, the defense can only take frequent beatings.

Miller changed direction and broke through, he went in again, and Nash was unable to parry.

Tan Yang's defensive assistance was also in place quickly, as if he had predicted it.

Alas, Miller still didn't shoot, he broke through and scored the ball.

Wash Leonard on the right wing cut into the three-point line early without the ball. He also predicted the Mavericks' defensive arrangement and taught the Mavericks' defense to focus on one thing and lose the other.

Leonard catches the ball, will there be a two-point shot from close range..."

Bang-dang——!
Opportunity is out.

Miller breaks through and distributes the ball, Leonard cuts without the ball, the closer to the basket the higher the hit rate, and the tactics are executed according to the truth said by Lu Xun.

It's just a pity that no matter how true Lu Xun's words are, Leonard is useless and useless.

"No!!

The scoring opportunity was great, but unfortunately, the basket was not owned by the Nuggets.

Oh, the Nuggets' offense was not over. Nene Lahirio stepped up and grabbed an offensive rebound.

After landing and being flanked, he immediately distributed the ball and found Anthony who cut into the penalty area without the ball.

Leaping high in the penalty area, it was a one-handed chop from the gods..."

Bang-dang——!
Tomahawk chop, two points scored.

After Anthony scored, he beat his chest and roared, nodded continuously in celebration, and his grin was really sweet.

“Great job!!

It's teamwork between the two again.

Instead of individual players messing around, they break through and distribute the ball, passing and cutting to cooperate...

Adding changes in the offensive rhythm made it impossible for the Mavericks, who were already sparsely defensive, to defend themselves..."

6 to 5! !
At the beginning of the game, the offenses of both sides were back and forth, and no one could do anything to the opponent.

Both sides attack very hard. Next, we can only see whose attack lasts longer?
