Chapter 588

"Dirk, we haven't lost yet, I believe you can!"

After switching from offense to defense, Steve Nash, who was advancing with the ball, saw that Dirk Nowitzki's expression was obviously a little strange, so Steve Nash, who was a bit confused, advanced to the distance from Dirk Nowitzki. When Notitzki was not far away, he opened his mouth to encourage Nowitzki.

In the current situation, Steve Nash is really helpless. In the whole round of the series, facing Meng Xu's strangulation, except for the occasional flash, Steve Nash's performance was average most of the time. The first few minutes now will determine the game and even the championship, so Meng Xu will not relax his blockade in the slightest. When every attack is extremely important, Steve- Nash didn't dare to gamble, so he, like Nelson, pinned his last hopes on Dirk Nowitzki.

"Steve, I see." Looking at Steve Nash and nodding towards him, Nowitzki said softly.Once again, the outcome was decided in one fell swoop. The head coach and teammates pinned their hopes on themselves, so Nowitzki could not back down, nor could he back down. This was his responsibility and mission, and he had to shoulder it.

"Steve!" Just as Steve Nash was about to do a pick-and-roll with Antoine Walker, Dirk Nowitzki, standing near the left three-point line, reached out to Nash for the ball up.

With Antoine Walker already in place, Steve Nash used Antoine Walker's body to simply block Meng Xu, who was defending him, and then took the ball and continued to move laterally one step later. The basketball was handed over to Dirk Nowitzki, who was already waiting there.

James Posey's height is a disadvantage for power forwards, but he has excellent mobility, good strength, and first-class defensive awareness. Therefore, James Posey is often assigned to defend those big men who are 10 cm taller than himself. In the first few games of the finals, James Posey failed to defend Nowitzki, but in today's game, everything changed. James Posey discovered the tried and tested defensive tricks in the previous games. Today is completely useless, because in today's game, Dirk Nowitzki did not try to attack him head-on from beginning to end, so as to get a chance to attack the frame or get to the basket, but to use his height And the advantage of strength, first use the back body to continuously squeeze in, and then there is the kind of back-turning and fade-away jumper similar to outside players. Can you imagine a big man with a height of more than 2 meters 10 playing a fade-away jumper?Especially when Nowitzki was jumping, one leg was bent forward to prevent the defensive player from jumping close to the body. James Posey really didn't know how to defend this shooting method.

This is the case again in this offense. After getting the ball, Dirk Nowitzki first leaned on James Posey with his back, pushed James Posey into the three-point line, and then turned his back and leaned back. Jump shot, even though James Posey was already prepared, but James Posey still had no choice but to watch Nowitzki's basketball fall into the basket. middle.

'This game, I will never give up! "After the shot was made, Dirk Nowitzki shook his fist at Meng Xu not far away. It was a response to Meng Xu's provocation just now. Nowitzki wanted to prove himself with practical actions and prove that he was not Not weaker than anyone.

"Team it!" After the game restarted, Rick Carlisle, who was pacing back and forth on the sidelines, finally stopped after Nowitzki made another hit, and squeezed out three words with difficulty.

Lester Conor, who received instructions from Rick Carlisle, quickly made a gesture to double-team Nowitzki towards Tyshawn Prince, who was running towards the frontcourt.

"It would be great if you could have such an ability in the first game." This round of the series is now, and Meng Xu feels excited for the first time. Because the Pacers' opponents in the previous two finals, the Los Angeles Lakers, Whether it is personal ability or the overall strength of the team, they are much better than the Mavericks. Therefore, in this year's finals, Meng Xu still can't find the excitement in the previous two games. Xu also won't have the idea of ​​brushing data in the finals.If Nowitzki can have the ability he has today in the finals, then correspondingly, under the stimulation of Nowitzki, Meng Xu's performance will be better, so Meng Xu is somewhat regretful now.

Whether it's the confrontation with Kobe or the back and forth with O'Neal, Meng Xu will feel a sense of crisis and feel extremely excited at the same time, but now, when Nowitzki enters the unstoppable mode, Meng Xu's heart Finally, I have this feeling again, that feeling of falling into a state of frantic killing.

When Meng Xu dribbled through the middle circle again, the Mavericks also began to double-team Meng Xu, but under the double-teaming of Antoine Walker and Michael Finley, Meng Xu did not go up halftime That way, when you encounter a double-team, you will pass the basketball out, but you are accelerating, changing direction, stopping suddenly, and then accelerating this set of movements, you will throw Antoine Walker away, and then use your physical advantage to directly smash away Michael Finley went straight to the basket.

Antawn Jamison, who was dunked by Meng Xu in the last round, seemed to have a very strong mentality. When Meng Xu knocked away Michael Finley and went straight to the basket, as the Mavericks finally Antawn Jamison, who was behind a barrier, rushed towards Meng Xu without hesitation, trying to block Meng Xu's footsteps with his body.

Therefore, when Meng Xu jumped two meters below the free throw line, Antawn Jamison, who had already reached the defensive position, did not wait in place, trying to make Meng Xu an offensive foul or something, but chose to attack actively. After Meng Xu took off, he jumped up immediately, and at the same time stretched his arms, ready to interfere with Meng Xu.Antawn Jamison is not a 3 player in the general sense. He is an all-round forward who can play both 3 and 4. A small forward who can play 4 has no strength. It has to be said that although there may be some shortcomings in dealing with those orthodox insiders, when dealing with outside players like Meng Xu, Antawn Jamison is still confident that he can handle it.

But with the muffled sound of muscles colliding, Antawn Jamison was surprised to find that he was knocked into the air by Meng Xu!He was knocked out by Meng Xu without any power to fight back!
And what followed was a loud bang. Antoine Jamison, who was knocked out, saw Meng Xu hanging on the basket with one hand before he landed. At this moment, Antoine Jamison -Jamison's heart was shaken, can he really block this guy in front of him?

"Meng Xu's attack was too violent this time! The dunks after running past Michael Finley and Antawn Jamison in succession are really domineering!"
