new lord of the rings

Chapter 116 Pushed into Desperation!

The outside world is disturbing, and Zhang Xin has already flown to Dallas, Texas with the Warriors to challenge the Dallas Mavericks away.

Everyone in the Warriors knows that this is not an easy task. The away games in the playoffs have always been known as brutal. In the Special League, the Thunder, Warriors, Mavericks, and Jazz are all known as home games for the devil, and the fans are especially enthusiastic.

Zhang Xin already realized this deeply when he was warming up. The American Airlines Arena was full of fans in light blue T-shirts, holding up slogans and shouting loudly. The shouts of more than 1 people formed a huge sound wave. , Wave after wave hit the warriors.

Zhang Xin was in it, enjoying the boos of the home fans, who were abusive, cursing, and intimidating. Zhang Xin faced it with a smile.

These are the usual tricks of the home fans. They constantly interfere with the visiting team players off the court. If the visiting team players are embarrassed and disturbed by the scolding, then their goal has been achieved.

Game start.

The Warriors are still regular starters: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Bogut, Harrison Barnes, Draymond Green.

The Mavericks have no personnel adjustments: Monta Ellis, Devon Harris, Dirk Nowitzki, Samuel Dumport, Sean Marion.

With a jump ball in the middle circle, the Mavericks won the ball for the first time. Devin Harris crossed halftime under Curry's interference and directly gave the ball to Dirk Nowitzki at the elbow. Zhang Xin's pupils constricted, which is abnormal!
Generally, the Mavericks will not let Nowitzki hold the ball so quickly. Monta Ellis took the lead in the last two games.

Dirk Nowitzki carried Green, dribbled twice, pushed Green away, turned over and hit a jumper!This seemed to sound the horn of the Mavericks' offense, and the Mavericks' offensive hit the Warriors wave after wave.

The Mavericks players who returned home unleashed a strong offensive power, scoring 45 points in the first quarter, and Mark Jackson couldn't cool down the Mavericks' touch even after calling a timeout.

At 45:29 in the first quarter, the Mavericks led by 16 points!
Zhang Xin saw the determination of the Mavericks, Curry and Thompson went down to rest, and Zhang Xin led the rotation to play.

The determination of the Mavericks is carried through to everyone in the team. As long as they are on the team, they will fight hard. Under the encouragement of the home fans, each one of them will display incredible abilities. With Zhang Xin's desperate support, the Mavericks' rotation still beat the Warriors 8 points, the point difference was pulled to 24 points!
At the end of the second quarter, the score of the two sides was 88:64. The Warriors' scoring cannot be said to be abnormal. The problem is that the Mavericks are bursting today!
During the halftime break, the Warriors who returned to the locker room looked tired and a little frustrated. Zhang Xin saw that the situation was not good. The Mavericks' fighting spirit might not be able to last the whole game, but if the Warriors' morale dropped, the game would be ruined.

Zhang Xin coughed to attract everyone's attention.

"Hey! Brothers! Listen to me!..."

Everyone turned their attention to Zhang Xin.

Zhang Xin's eyes were piercing, and he scanned Curry, Thompson, Iguodala, Green, Bogut one by one...

"I heard that on the way to the NBA championship, there are always many thorns, fog, sacrifices, wolves and tigers, devils and evil witches. There has never been a championship paved with flowers and greeted by fairies. Only fighting! fighting! and fighting! (fighting! fighting! and fighting!)..."

"...Now, why do you look depressed, why do you lower your head, have you accepted the fate of failure? This is only the first round, and we will meet the Clippers, Thunder, Spurs, Heat, Pacers later ...For these more powerful opponents, do we have to accept the fate of defeat in every away game?!"

The eyes of the warriors gradually became firmer. Zhang Xin had already gritted his teeth a little bit after speaking. Everyone was aroused by the determination to win contained in Zhang Xin's words.

"That's right! Mavericks and the bastards are not qualified to beat us yet!" Green yelled.

"Hey, brother, I'm ready, are you ready?" Curry walked to the middle, raised his right hand, Thompson, Zhang Xin Iguodala... raised their right hands one by one, surrounding Curry.

Curry growled, "Are you ready!"

Everyone roared from their chests and stomachs: "Fighting!"

Curry looked up: "Warriors..."

Everyone stomped: "let's go!"

Curry yelled again: "Warriors..."

Everyone tried their best: "let's go!!!"

……

At the beginning of the second half, Mark Jackson made adjustments. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Iguodala, Zhang Xin, and Drummond Green played.

Before playing, Zhang Xin said that at such a time, if you have a chance, just throw it, don't worry about it so much.

The Mavericks played Monta Ellis, Devon Harris, Dirk Nowitzki, Vince Carter and Sean Marion, and the Mavericks took the initiative to adjust the lineup to a smaller lineup to deal with the Warriors' small lineup.

Curry gritted his teeth and dribbled the ball across the half court. Zhang Xin took advantage of Green's cover and went out from the bottom line to the top of the arc to receive a pass from Curry. Before turning around completely, Zhang Xin jumped up and shot. Sean Marion Unable to hold his feet, he invaded Zhang Xin's cylinder, and Zhang Xin fell to the ground.

"Beep!!" The referee even blew the foul.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc and falls into the net!

Three points hit!There will be additional penalties!
Zhang Xin scored and added penalties, and the difference between the two sides was narrowed to 20 points!
On the defensive end, the Warriors used fast rotations to constantly switch defenses with pick-and-rolls. Nowitzki caught the ball and double-teamed. Hastily struck the iron.

Green controls the basketball and immediately promotes a fast break. Zhang Xin is like an arrow off the string, rushing to the frontcourt like lightning. Green makes a long pass to Zhang Xin. The road ahead of Zhang Xin is smooth. !What two points, it is impossible to shoot two points, just shoot three points!

The Mavericks fans looked at Zhang Xin dumbfounded and forgot to boo.

Zhang Xin was very angry with the ball, obviously there was no one under the basket, he just dribbled the ball in for a layup or dunked hard for two points and he got it, but Zhang Xin just shot a three-pointer from the three-point line!What a psycho!
The orange basketball pierced through the sky and fell into the net!
The Mavericks fans booed after reacting.

"Hey! Mr. Zhang's ball...Mr. Zhang should not discuss whether his shot selection is reasonable or not, just look at whether he can score or not. After all, three points are one point more than two points. It’s the right choice, but if you have strong confidence, you will make it, so it’s not a bad choice.” Wang Meng said.

"God-killing essence! The more desperate the situation, the more it can stimulate Mr. Zhang's killing-god essence. As the saying goes, look at Curry in good times, look at the first brother in trouble, look at Thompson in adversity, and look at Zhang Xin in desperate situations. I have a bold guess... probably Next, under the leadership of Mr. Zhang, the Warriors will set off a frenzy of scoring!" Yang Yi guessed.
