Chapter 674 The Beginning of Destruction
After Marbury's strong two plus one scored, the momentum of the Knicks reached a climax. Liu Han is now recognized as the No.1 in the league. Liu Han's name is almost everywhere in the All-Star voting and the league's major lists. The All-Star votes ranked first, votes from all over the world made Liu Han more than double the number of votes compared to No.2.

Being able to perform well under Liu Han's defense is almost the dream of all young players nowadays. Although Marbury is no longer young, and he is also a rookie in the same class as Liu Han, his performance today undoubtedly gave the sinking A positive sign for New York fans.

Liu Han's defense just now was actually not a big problem. His position has reached the limit, but the explosive Marbury did show unparalleled strength. His dodging in the air almost broke his limit. Of course, the ball There is also a certain element of luck. If he is allowed to make such an action again, even without Liu Han's defense, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Marbury to score.

Marbury scored a wonderful two plus one, Liu Han naturally had to say that this kind of ball must be responded to, otherwise the momentum of the entire team will be affected.

After Marbriga made a free throw, the Mavericks quickly sent the baseline ball. The Knicks players also knew that Liu Han would definitely come to the ball by himself, so they were all ready to fight.

After Liu Han dribbled the ball to the front court, Alan Houston immediately pushed forward, but Liu Han accelerated his breakthrough from the right side of his body in disguise when his center of gravity was not stable. open.

However, at this time, Kurt Thomas of the Knicks was already in place, blocking Liu Han's way to move forward, but Liu Han suddenly turned 180 degrees around Thomas with his left foot as the axis, and at the same time made Alan Houston's flanking attack for bubbles.

At this time, Liu Han has already reached the three-second zone, but Mutombo in front of him has already defended him. He could have passed the ball to Aaron McGee in the bottom corner, but Liu Han did not do so. He scored by himself, and he can only score by himself, which is related to the momentum and state of the entire team.

Facing Mutombo's defense, Liu Han turned around to avoid the opponent's long arm, and at the same time tucked his belly in the air, and then hooked the ball back to the basket with his left hand according to his own feeling.

The referee's whistle sounded, and Mutombo made an obvious downward movement in order to block the block, and the ball accurately drilled into the net after hitting the board.

Liu Han responded with a two plus one.

Compared with Marbury's two plus one before, Liu Han's ball is more difficult.

The game continued, but the core and "pseudo-core" of the two teams began their respective performances. Liu Han is the undisputed core of the Mavericks, while Marbury's core status in the Knicks has yet to be confirmed.

At the end of the first quarter, the two teams scored 35 to 33, with the Mavericks leading by two points.

In the second quarter, the two sides sent substitute players one after another, and now there was a gap. When the Knicks started on the court, relying on the excited Marbury to knead the team into a whole, but after Marbury was off the court, The Knicks showed their true colors right away.

In the Knicks' bench, only Osella Harnington has some combat effectiveness. Except for him, the rest are all low-paying players.

The Mavericks' bench lineup relied on Bradley to cover the pick-and-roll tactics. Xue Yuyang's high mid-range shot and Korver's three-pointer both gained.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Marbury only rested for less than 3 minutes before returning to the court again. Don Cheney, as the head coach, is actually almost like a megaphone and a repeater.

Relying on Marbury's individual singles in the first half of the second quarter, the Knicks narrowly tied the score.

Afterwards, the two teams returned to the court as starters. Alan Houston felt very good today. Not only was his mid-range shot as sharp as ever, but his outside three-pointers were also extremely accurate.

At the end of the halftime game, the two sides once again tied for 68.

I have to admit that Marbury is indeed the golden generation of the 96 draft. Although his height is flawed, his dribbling skills and shooting ability are top-notch, and to be honest, Marbury's passing awareness is actually very good , just doesn't take passing seriously due to personality issues.

Marbury played [-]% of his strength today, allowing the Mavericks and everyone to see his power.

After the start of the third quarter, Nelson asked Liu Han to mark Marbury, hoping to rely on Liu Han's personal defense to limit Marbury's performance. This did play a certain role. Marbury began to make mistakes. It also dropped quickly, and the Knicks' offense began to stagnate.

But at this time Alan Houston started his own performance, maybe it was affected by Marbury's state, or because he didn't want to just hand over the team leader's position, Houston scored 4 three-pointers in the next 4 minutes. He made three shots and scored two plus one once, allowing the Knicks to still bite the score in the third quarter.

With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, the two teams began to replace players to prepare for the decisive battle in the fourth quarter. At this time, the score between the two sides was 84 to 83, and the Mavericks only led by one point.

In the 4th minute of the fourth quarter, the Knicks first replaced the main lineup. Marbury finally performed without Liu Han's defense. He made two shots from outside the three-point line to help the Knicks overtake the score. Leading by 4 points.

After that, the Mavericks also began to replace the main players, and the two sides have been in a stalemate.

With 3 minutes left in the game, the Mavericks led the score by two points, and then the two teams began the final battle.

Alan Houston hit the sixth three-pointer of the game to help the Knicks lead the score by one point, and then Liu Han also responded to the opponent's three-pointer with a three-pointer.

In the last minute, Marbury once again bravely scored two points against Liu Han's defense, helping the Knicks to tie the score.

The Mavericks' final attack was heavily surrounded by Liu Han, so he had to pass the ball to Nowitzki who was open, but Nowitzki made 4 three-pointers today, but he missed the most critical goal. The Knicks The team grabbed the rebound, rushed the offense without a timeout, and their last shot also missed the basket. The two sides entered overtime with a score of 116.

At the beginning of overtime, Liu Han opened the door to victory for the Mavericks. He first took advantage of Marbury's exhaustion to grab the ball in his hand and counterattacked, and then took Marbury's forced shot in defense , the good physical condition of the Mavericks adjusted by traditional Chinese medicine doctors allowed them to still show a better physical condition than the Knicks in the overtime of back-to-back away games.

Marbury was brave in the first 48 minutes of the game, but he was no longer brave in overtime. After all, he was only one person, and the tacit understanding with the team was not enough. At the last moment, he still chose to believe in himself.

In the end, relying on the five-point advantage Liu Han established for the Mavericks at the beginning of overtime, the Mavericks defeated the Knicks 129 to 124 in overtime away games and won their 15th consecutive game.

Marbury played 50 minutes and scored a large double-double with 36 points and 16 assists. His performance brought surprises to New York but failed to lead to victory. Of course, no one thought that this was actually just New York's "disruption" Start.
