Countercurrent and become a superstar

Chapter 95: /, the question is that the Nuggets have the attributes of dragons at home and insects on the road!
"Main players, come out and wash the floor~~"

Three minutes into the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies rotated their lineup. The starting five stood up in confusion, looking at the score of 3 to 92 on the scorer. They didn't know how to fill in the 75 minutes left for them. This 9-point pit.

In the third quarter of the game, the Mavericks hit a three-pointer, leading a 33-24 offensive that widened the point difference to 15 points. In the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies' rotation lineup, whose confidence was shattered, continued to be beaten by the Mavericks' main lineup. Opened up by 2 points.

“There was no problem with the Grizzlies’ rotation in the first half, but the problem was with the so-called starting five.

In the second half, the problem appeared in the rotation lineup. The connection between the two lineups could not be continued, and there were problems in both. This was the disaster buried by the double pit. "

"This is basketball!

They won't operate according to the track you set, they don't have excellent strength, and they want to defeat the elite teams. They need the first step. Every link must be executed according to the plan to perfection. They don't have much room for error... …”

Mike Breen shook his head. Both the starting lineup and the second lineup made damn mistakes one after another. You still want to win a game where the weak beat the strong!

When the Grizzlies' starting five came on the court, the Mavericks' main players also clocked out and came to the wrong forward.

When the Grizzlies aimed to fight hard in every quarter and put their hope of victory at the mercy of the Mavericks' physical fuel tank in the fourth quarter, the Mavericks, under the arrangement of Nelson, had already planned to play the main force. The "three-quarter check-in" plan.

As a result, the Mavericks, who have a stronger card, are obviously better.

Of course, in the drawn game, the Mavericks' rotation was also very bullying.

In addition to the three players who can play in the starting lineup, Jamison, Josh Howard and Danny Fortson, there is also a "one tall and one fast combination". The fast one is Tony Delk, and the taller one is Bradley who is 2 meters tall. .

In the next game, the Grizzlies scored 25 points in the entire fourth quarter, but still allowed the Mavericks to score 17 points. They only filled an 8-point hole, but were buried in a 17-point hole.

Om-!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.

The score was 104 to 97. The Mavericks had the last laugh with a 7-point advantage. While ending the Grizzlies' two-game winning streak, they extended the winning streak to 9 games.

诺维茨基16投9中，三分4中1，罚球8中5，进账24分11篮板3助攻，还算凑合。

覃洋11投7中，三分7中4，罚球2中2，20分11助攻5篮板，表现高效且靓仔。

芬利16投7中，三分4中3，尤其是第三节比赛，三分3中3，表现非常的nice地进账19分7篮板1助攻。

纳什13投6中，三分6中3，罚球3中3，进账18分7助攻4篮板，表现同样出色。

The Three Musketeers + rising star Qin Yang all performed well. Walker had 11 points and Jamison also scored 10 points.

For the Grizzlies, Mike Miller had 24 points, Jason Williams had 20 points and 9 assists, and Gasol had 17 points and 16 rebounds. Just looking at the three cores, they were no different from the Mavericks, but if you pull it down, the rest of the Grizzlies The only two players who scored in double figures were Posey with 11 points and Battier with 12 points.

It was agreed that more people should be bullied than others. Now the Mavericks have more people than you and are stronger than you. They have both quantity and quality. What can you use to support them?
You can't stand it anymore.

……

After defeating the Grizzlies and ending the Southwest Division's devilish schedule, the Mavericks' devilish schedule is not over yet. There are still many tough battles to be fought in the remaining November schedule, including a second game against the Spurs and two more. Against the Nuggets and the Timberwolves guarding the last hurdle, the schedule is simply difficult.

Well, it's been so tough both for the opponent and for the Dallas Mavericks.

"Reverse growth progress bar: 23 (09/10 season template)"

On the plane flying back to Dallas, Qin Yang scanned the system page and nodded with satisfaction.

“After surviving the Southwest Devil schedule, it was really rewarding.

Especially with the blessing of a good performance in the starting lineup, it is a bonus.

The new season has only passed two weeks, and there is already such a reverse growth progress. As long as we continue to maintain this rhythm, maybe this season is not over, and it is possible to advance to the next version. "

Not even a possibility, but a certainty.

Thinking of this, Tan Yang didn't want to close his eyes and rest, and seriously studied the next opponent.

To reach his current status, Tan Yang relies on his own hard work, not just casual talk. In order to make a name for himself faster, he cannot slack off just because of his outstanding performance in the last game.

You still have to work hard, fight, and focus on every game.

In the next game, the Mavericks will be at home against the Trail Blazers, whom they met in the preseason.

After thinking about it for a while, Tan Yang realized that the Mavericks had no idea how to lose against the Trail Blazers, so there was no need to continue studying.

"Wong Lao Kat and Jia Duobao fought, and they died with justice!"

After Tan Yang put down the Trail Blazers player information, this sentence crossed his mind.

In the era of competition between the Lakers and Spurs, the boss and the second team were fighting each other, but the third team player, the Trail Blazers, died.

Oh no, the Trail Blazers also tried their best to compete, but unfortunately, the boss spent a lot of money to form a luxurious lineup. Even if they couldn't beat the Lakers led by OK combination, they couldn't beat the Spurs led by Duncan. In the end, they could only be beaten. Dispersed.

Anyway, if we can’t compete, we can only settle down and rebuild.

June 11, American Airlines Center.

The Mavericks defeated the Trail Blazers with a score of 109 to 98 and a 12-point advantage, extending their winning streak to 10 games.

It has to be said that the basic lineup framework of the Trail Blazers is still there.

With Rasheed Wallace, Randolph, Dale Davis, Bunchy Wells and Stoudemire in the team, they have the resources to compete in the playoffs. It's just a pity that the Trail Blazers are thinking, But it's not about winning games, but about cleaning up the team's problems.

Ask to clean up the notorious "Portland Jail Squad."

In the past, team owners could tolerate it in order to compete for the championship, but now that they no longer compete for the championship, they will naturally not be allowed to celebrate the New Year.

But having said that, as the third pole of the previous championship competition, the Trail Blazers player supermarket has opened, and the whereabouts of core players such as Rasheed Wallace will also affect the league's championship pattern.

This team is not going to do anything good, and with a card like this, it can do bad things.

In Tan Yang's previous life, the Lakers lost every game, essentially losing to the Trail Blazers.

Facing the Trail Blazers who couldn't accomplish anything, the Mavericks actually fell behind in the first half. Fortunately, with the explosion in the third quarter, the Mavericks finished the game.

On February 11, it was still the American Airlines Center Arena.

The Mavericks are at home, ushering in their second regular season game with the Spurs.

With some experience in the game, the Mavericks started the first quarter by implementing a five-defense and three-attack tactic on defense, targeting the "GDP combination" offense, and then letting other role players shoot.

Offensively, use withdrawal tactics to open up space and compete with the Spurs in shooting battles.

In the first half of the Spurs, the outside shooters performed well and withstood the Mavericks' tactics.

However, in the second half of the game, the Spurs' biggest hidden danger emerged.

Outside players such as Ginobili, Parker, Turkoglu, and Bowen cannot play the role of core outside attackers.

So, in the third quarter, the Spurs' outside shooters started a blacksmith show.

鲍文3投0中，三分2中0，吉诺比利2中0，帕克同样2中0，加上特科格鲁三分1中0，马刺队的外线射手群自己把自己给投崩了。

Although Duncan and Nestor Lovis scored 13 points together in the paint, the Spurs only scored 17 points in the entire third quarter.

But the Mavericks scored 27 points.

The game, which was evenly matched in the first half, instantly became unbalanced in the second half.

Trailing by double-digit points, in the fourth quarter, when the Spurs' "GDP combination" continued to be targeted by the defense, their role players had no way to decide the game.

Om-!
As the buzzer sounds, the game time ends.

The score was 98 to 95. The Mavericks narrowly defeated the Spurs with a 3-point advantage, extending the winning streak to 11 games. It also knocked the Spurs' record to ninth in the Western Conference, with only 9 wins and 7 losses.

Of course, during the week that Duncan was absent, the Spurs lost three of the four games and won only one. Injuries affected the performance of the defending champion. This is not the position they should be in.

The Mavericks continue to consolidate their top spot with this unbeatable winning streak.

January 11, Pepsi Center.

Night falls.

At this time, the Nuggets are sitting at home to meet the challenge of the Mavericks. The lights are bright and there is a sea of ​​people. During warm-ups, Nowitzki and Anthony chatted about a few cents.

As the 03 generation, Tan Yang and Josh Howard did not join in the fun.

After all, they are just role players, and Anthony has been trained as the cornerstone of the team since he entered the league. Both parties are in different channels, and they are destined to not be able to talk on the same channel.

Moreover, there is no need to play "brotherly" basketball like James, and there is no need to chat and connect with each other.

During the warm-up, the starting lineups of both teams tonight 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.

"The Nuggets and Mavericks are similar.

For example, both attack to win, and both like to play run-and-gun.

Moreover, they were the second-ranked team in the league last season.

Well, the Mavericks were the second-best team last season, and the Nuggets were the second-worst team.

They are all second! ! "

"Can backwards and forwards count the same?" Kenny Smith looked at Buckley next to him with wide eyes.

Buckley replied calmly.

“That’s right, if it weren’t for that.

The two teams cannot talk about each other.

Because they are not on the same level of team, and they are not on the same channel, so the commentator cannot explain. "

“So, let the Nuggets win if they lose less!

The only thing to watch is the battle for the best rookie of the season.

Anthony is now outstanding, averaging 21 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game. He can also lead a team that was last in the Western Conference last season to the seventh place in the Western Conference. It is very competitive.

While James was struggling in the Cavaliers and Wade was struggling in the Heat, Tan Yang's sudden rise in the Mavericks and continued performance like this did have a chance to threaten Anthony.

After all, the Mavericks' regular season record is so good, they only lost one game. "

“The Mavericks are currently 10 wins and 1 loss, ranking first in the league.

The Nuggets currently have 7 wins and 5 losses, ranking sixth in the Western Conference. There is indeed a qualitative gap with the Mavericks.

However, if I were to guess a winning rate for this game, I would hope it would be a 50-50 draw.

The question is that the Nuggets have the attributes of dragons at home and insects on the road.

Sitting at the home court of the Plateau Devils, the Nuggets' fighting power is immeasurable. They have only lost one game this season, and they lost to the explosive Clippers by 2 points after overtime.

In fact, the Spurs, Rockets, Kings and other strong teams all lost at the Nuggets' home court..."

Of the 5 games they lost, 4 were on the road. In other words, the Nuggets played a 6-1 home tactics and were still able to compete with the Mavericks.

The game started.

Beep——!
When the whistle sounded, the referee threw the basketball high in the air. Nene Hilario showed his beast-like physical talent, defeated Nowitzki, and won the ball for the Nuggets' first attack.

……

“Andre Miller took the ball upfield and took a look at Anthony’s matchup.

Against Finley, Anthony's matchup advantage was not obvious.

Miller moved, he chose to dribble the ball in a different direction and break through. Nash was very active, but he was about to be passed, like an early morning street.

Tan Yang rushed over to help Nash defend.

With a beautiful back pass, Miller distributed the basketball to the right side of the 65-degree three-point line.

Wash Leonard caught the ball, raised his hand, and shot a three-point jumper..."

Tan Yang tried his best, but if he cared about Nash, he was destined to not care about Wash Leonard's defense, so he could only not regard Leonard's three-point shot as alive.

This is also where the Mavericks have the confidence to defend their zone.

Bang-dang——!
Sure enough, Wash Leonard's three-point shot missed.

"Missed!
The Nuggets missed open scoring opportunities.

Oops, their offense wasn't over yet. Camby lit up the basketball, then took off the offensive rebound. Faced with Nowitzki's personal counterattack, Camby chose to pass the ball to Anthony on the outside.

Then, the triple threat faced Finley, feinted, and broke through with the ball. Finley fought and retreated. Oh no, Anthony pulled out, broke into the three-point line, and shot a two-point fadeaway jumper..."

Finley's defense is not inactive, but Anthony's offensive rhythm, sudden stops and quick starts, caught him off guard. He could only defend passively, falling behind step by step.

Swish-!
"In.

Anthony's scoring talent is too strong.

A rookie, facing the All-Star level Finley, can still score with ease.

The talent of a superstar is obvious at a glance!

Who would have thought that in the 03 draft, a pair of unique talents like him would fall to the third overall pick? "

Buckley shook his head and continued.

"It reminds me of the '84 draft.

What the head coach of the Dream Team said at the time.

The second pick should be Jordan.

If the team needs a center, let Jordan play center..."

0 to 2! !
After scoring the goal, Anthony smiled sweetly.

This melon, at this moment, is really sweet.

Looking back, Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt and performed a routine operation. He distributed the ball to Tan Yang at the first moment, and then cut to the right side of the 45-degree three-point line without the ball.

“Walker asked for the ball in the post on the right side.

This is the Mavericks' triangle offensive tactic. Tan Yang holds the ball, Nowitzki is in the middle, Nash is on the far end, and Wash Leonard is on the front with mediocre defense. Let's see how Tan Yang chooses?

Hey, Tan Yang chose to pass the ball to Nash who was outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right side. He caught the ball, jumped up, and raised his hand to shoot a three-point jumper..."

Nash does not hold the ball to organize, and arranges to play without the ball. His advantage is accurate three-point shooting.

Tan Yang had no waves, and Nash had no waves either. He raised the knife and dropped it, the basketball drew an arc in the air, and with a swish sound, it fell into the white net.

3 to 2! !
"That's why Nash can start.

His offensive talent is the ceiling of the league. In addition to being able to organize, he can also score three-pointers. He is really brave. "

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

As a top point guard, Nash naturally realized that Tan Yang's passing was just right, allowing him to shoot without having to adjust.
