Basketball: Man in 08, three months left before the Olympics

The scene is a bit messy.

Billups, who has always been calm, can no longer be calm at the moment.

In the final moments, a blown-or-no foul was blown by the referee at the three-point line.

This is undoubtedly fatal for the Nuggets.

So, Billups began to look for referee theory.

Anthony, you join in.

Even after he had just been cleanly cut by Kidd in the last round, the referee gave him a chance to stand at the free-throw line.

However, regardless of whether the referee made this decision correct or not, Anthony should step up and stand up for his teammates, who made him the boss of the team.

The referee, of course, ignored them and upheld the penalty.

108:109

Pei Yun stood at the free throw line, and this was the time to test him.

In the Doncic template, whether it is close, mid-range or long-range shooting, it is good and accurate, but the long-range stability is slightly worse.

But the only thing that pulls the crotch is the free throw.

Fortunately, now the team is only 1 point behind, and Pei Yun only needs to hit 1 free throw to not lose, and 2 free throws are almost dead.

He took a deep breath and completely ignored the boos of the home fans before making a steady free throw.

Syllable!

The first penalty was ironed.

“Ma Dan, it’s a bit of a shame, I’m obviously very concentrated, how can I not be punished?”

Pei Yun was complaining, but at the same time, he did not forget to give his teammates high fives and encouragement.

With the second penalty, he adjusted his breathing again.

Staggering, finally upside down.

109:109

“Good risk, good risk, almost didn’t score again, it seems that I have to practice practicing free throws, if it really doesn’t work, add points!”

Pei Yun has prepared the training plan after this game.

The crucial third penalty determines what kind of trend will be in today’s game, is it going into extra time? Or lore?

Call!

Pei Yun took another deep breath and struck.

Swish!

Hollow into the net!

110:109

Looking at the timer with only 1 second, the ball was almost dead.

The Nuggets called a final timeout, and they were still going to do their death throes.

However, the miracle did not happen, and the game ended with Anthony’s outrageous final goal missed.

Pei Yun made a free throw to kill the Nuggets.

In this game, Pei Yun played 39 minutes, cutting 34 points, 6 rebounds and 16 assists, Novitsky 18 points and 8 rebounds, UAE 16 points and 6 rebounds, Dampier 18 points and 10 rebounds.

For the Nuggets, Anthony scored 27 points and JR Smith scored 26.

After this game, the Mavericks have achieved four consecutive wins, and continue to lead the West along with the Lakers and Spurs.

The Nuggets lost the game and temporarily dropped out of the undefeated First Group.

Next, the Mavericks will return to Dallas and play three consecutive home games against weak opponents.

It has to be said that the Mavericks’ schedule is really friendly in the opening season, and if they play consistently, they are very likely to enter the next relatively difficult schedule with seven consecutive wins.

The team flew back to Dallas overnight.

Although Pei Yun now took the first money of the big contract, he also had a lot of points that could be exchanged for rice knives.

However, since Kuban provided him with such a good private small luxury villa, he had no reason not to stay.

It was late at night when he returned to Dallas, and after taking a shower, Ei Xiaoqi, who had not been in contact for several days, called him internationally.

“Hey, Brother Yun, haven’t slept yet?”

Due to the time difference, it was afternoon on the Dragon Kingdom’s side, and now Ei Xiaoqi should be in intense training, how could he have time to call himself?

“yes, just got back from Denver.”

“Did you win the game?”

“Of course I won, will I lose?”

“Oh, I’m still training, this is not with Coach Lang to take a leave, come out to buy something, I will call you.”

……

The two didn’t have a word to talk like this.

A few days after Pei Yun left Longdu, Yi Xiaoqi returned to the team and started the domestic women’s volleyball league.

Compared with the NBA’s professional men’s basketball team, the domestic women’s volleyball league is not only not profitable, but also particularly hard and not free.

Usually, you have to collect your mobile phone on training days, and only on weekends there will be a half-day free time.

At that time, Yi Xiaoqi would call Pei Yun, and it would last for several hours.

After talking for a while, Yi Xiaoqi suddenly asked Pei Yun on the phone: “Brother Yun, do you think you can still adapt to living in the United States?” ”

Pei Yun didn’t hear the meaning of his words, but just replied: “It’s okay, I met some friends here, but most of the time I have to play games, and I don’t have time to go out to play, by the way, there are quite a few Chinese restaurants, Chinese food is doing well, how, you want to come over?” ”

“Didn’t… It’s not decided yet, just ask. ”

……

Next, the Mavericks’ three home stadiums, which will face the challenges of the Grizzlies, Kings and Pacers, are not a strong team.

In the fourth game, they will travel to Houston, the next door, to challenge the Rockets.

After the victory over the Nuggets, domestic fans were boiling again.

Pei Yun’s free throw in the final moments made them revel again.

In their eyes, Pei Yun seems to be a top box office champion star, and at the Olympics, a “Killer Dream Team” is a god.

After a few months, another “Free Throw Nuggets” appeared in the field of vision of Dragon Kingdom fans.

In the eyes of fans, Pei Yun has become an idol, and whenever I watch him play, it is a pleasure.

And the sports channel also tasted the sweetness, the Mavericks and Nuggets that game, directly set a ratings record for them.

After the game, the sports channel urgently held a meeting and was already planning the next live broadcast.

That’s right, the Rockets and Mavericks game in Houston a little over a week later.

This game has a lot to watch.

The most anticipated highlight is, of course, the showdown between Dayao and Pei Yun!

Although the Mavericks played the Rockets in the regular season last season, Pei Yun was still unknown at that time and did not even get a chance to play.

In the playoffs, after Pei Yun’s sudden outbreak, he and Dayao have always existed as teammates.

This time, it will be their first time as opponents.

What will it look like?

Is Pei Yun stronger? Or is Dayao stronger?

Such a comparison obviously does not make sense, the two of them are one and one is five, and it is not easy to have a direct confrontation on the field.

But in the eyes of fans, such a topic is enough to attract attention.

In terms of player level height and stability, it is natural that Dayao is more convincing.

02 champion, an all-star player every year, the absolute backbone of the Dragon Country men’s basketball team.

But in terms of recent status, Pei Yun is a more prominent party.

The sports channel, defining this game as “Dragon Country Derby” and “Red and Blue Showdown”!

————————

In Dallas, after a day of vacation, the players began an intense training camp.

Coach Carlisle is indeed a very dry coach, he has tailored the tactical positioning and training goals for the team and even each player.

For example, let the UAE strengthen confrontation, let Pei Yun strengthen free throws, let Novitsky strengthen the accuracy of passing…

Cuban also appeared on the training ground, and he urged everyone to train, especially Dampier and Howard.

And once the training goals for the day were completed, Cuban promised to lead everyone out for a meal on his day off.

This year’s Mavericks, from the owners to the players, from management to every scout, are motivated.

Cuban saw it in his eyes and only felt that the future of the team was very promising, and he was quite happy.

Soon, their first opponent struck.

The Memphis Grizzlies, who took the talented high school student OJ Mayo with a prospect pick in the draft, plan to fight the new season with Gasol Jr., Conley and others.

However, Mayo’s adaptation in the NBA is not stable, and it is a bad game.

Coupled with the fact that the whole team has no chemistry, their team strength is greatly reduced.

Since the start of the season, it has even been difficult to win a single victory, and now visiting Dallas, which is gaining momentum, is almost a very strong and weak matchup.

And so it was, with the Mavericks winning 113-87 at home.

Pei Yun clocked out of work in the third quarter, scoring 30 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists.

Of course, the Mavericks have embarked on a “hidden plan” to force up the stats of Dampier and Howard so that they can have more trade value.

It’s a win-win for both the players and the team, so the whole team is trying to make it happen.

In this game, Dampier got 22+14 data, and Josh Howard also had an 18+5+5 performance.

Two days later, a second rival, the King, struck.

This season, the Kings’ roster has been dismal.

Led by “crooked shooter” Kevin Martin, paired with a group of unknown players, since the start of the game, it has only barely won a game because of Martin’s supergod performance.

The rest of the time, they’re more like the kind of team that’s already rotten and rushes to sign next season.

Fans lament the decline of the Kings, who were expected to compete for the championship a few years ago, under Webb’s leadership.

But since the dissolution of the flamboyant “Princeton Style” Kings, they have plummeted.

In Dallas, crooked shooter Kevin Martin went it alone.

In the end, the Mavericks defeated the Kings 126-113.

Pei Yun played 34 minutes and scored 28 points, 7 rebounds and 14 assists.

What amazes Dallas fans the most is that their starting center, Eric Dampier, slashed 30 points and 20 rebounds in this game.

In addition to the fact that the Kings’ interior line is too weak, the Mavericks are all feeding cakes and all rebounds, which is also an important reason why this data is “brushed”.

At the press conference after the game, Dampier was invited to the central position, and he told the media with great confidence: “I feel very good lately, the second center in the West that you are expecting is back, no, maybe it will be the first now!” ”

The copy was given by Pei Yun to Cuban, just like Pei Yun’s tone when he said at the Dragon Country men’s basketball conference that he wanted to win the Olympic championship.

Video of the press conference quickly spread to the sports media across the United States that day.

The 30+20 numbers were also very convincing, and soon people began to believe that Dampier was really the second center in the West.

Then came the third opponent.

Indiana Pacers.

The Pacers in the 08-09 season were not the same powerhouse team that went on to play seven games against James.

At this time, the Pacers did not have Paul George.

Roy Hibbert is still just a backup center, with mediocre numbers and nothing striking.

They relied on the leader Danny Granger to lead the team, and they also struggled a little in the East, which was not very strong.

The result was not suspenseful, and the long-distance walkers surrendered with little resistance in the face of the calf team fighting on their doorstep and in high spirits.

The Mavericks eventually won the game 119-101.

This time, Eric Dampier continued his highlight performance, he scored 20 points, 18 rebounds and 5 blocks.

Pei Yun played 32 minutes and scored 36 points, 4 rebounds and 11 assists.

As a result, the Mavericks have won seven straight games.

They dominate the West, but the Lakers and Spurs have not lost either.

Next, there will be a three-day break before the Mavericks travel to Houston to challenge the Rockets.

In the second week of the week’s best selection, Pei Yun was nominated.

But in the end, he lost to Kobe, who averaged 33 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game, and could not continue.

Before leaving for Houston, Dayao called Pei Yun in advance.

“Pei Yun Laotie, congratulations, your team has won seven consecutive victories, hey, we are still struggling.”

The Rockets didn’t start well, and Dayao returned from injury, and his form was really not there, only 4-3, ranking eighth in the West.

In today’s competitive West, such a record could easily be squeezed out of a playoff spot.

Dayao’s situation there is not good, and the atmosphere of the whole team is strange, which is in stark contrast to the unity of the Mavericks.

“What’s wrong, Dayao, do you want to come and team up with me and the UAE?” Ha ha! Pei Yun joked.

“I think I want to, but of course it’s impossible, by the way, you guys came to play the game this time, after the three of our brothers got together, last time I said that I was the host, or your boss Mark’s pocket.” Dayao said.

“What’s the matter, anyway, our boss has a lot of money, don’t worry.” By the way, Dayao, you have to be careful in this game, the recent ‘second center in the West’ in our team is very fierce, and there is a posture that will overwhelm you. Of course, Pei Yun knew the team’s plan, and he just mentioned it casually to Dayao.

Dayao is a person who likes to joke, and when he heard Pei Yun tell him so, he also said: “Come and come, although let the horses come, you and the UAE will also come together, don’t blame my subordinates for being merciless at that time!” ”

“Hahaha, I like you to say such things, then when the time comes, our dragon country derby, can say well, no one is allowed to let anyone, do your best to fight ah!”

“Who lets who is a dog!”
