One Guard

"How is the lads?" In the American Airlines Center Arena, the Mavericks players have begun to warm up on the field. -79 Novels.com-Although there is still an hour and a half before the start of the game, it can be seen that everyone has entered the fighting state.

"After getting enough rest, both young players and veterans are in good condition. I am very confident in today's game." Carlisle looked at the players preparing hard on the court, and answered the fat man beside him .

The one who just asked about the status of Carlisle's players was none other than the owner of the Mavericks, Mark Cuban.

For this game, Cuban naturally attaches great importance to it, so today he did not go to the luxury box, but went to the stadium in person, and reserved a place for himself behind the player's bench.

Hearing Carlisle's answer, Cuban walked onto the court himself and walked among the players.

"How do you feel?" In front of Yiyang, the chubby boss stopped.

"Well, everything is fine." Yiyang raised his hand to shoot, Cuban casually raised his hand to interfere. However, the basketball still easily entered the net. Seeing this, Cuban patted Yiyang on the shoulder, and then walked to the next player.

"That guy is really enthusiastic." Kenny Smith, who was already in the commentary stand, felt that it was rare to see the team owner walking up to the training ground to prepare for the game with his players.

In the NBA, you rarely see owners who are so committed to their teams. The NBA is a business league, and business is business. For most owners, the team serves only one purpose: to make money. For them, basketball is just a way to make money, players are just a tool for making money, nothing more. But Cuban, he has that kind of enthusiasm for the team that has nothing to do with money.

It is not the first time that the boss personally came down to practice with the players in Dallas. But this will undoubtedly boost the morale of the players.

After a while, several players wearing Warriors training uniforms stepped into the field one after another in the player tunnel on the other side of the field. Cuban looked at the group, his eyes seemed to be on fire.

Yiyang also looked in the direction of the boss's line of sight. At this time, only some fringe players of the Warriors came to the court. It is impossible for a "big guy" like Monta Ellis to appear so early.

Except for one guy, that baby-faced guy Carlisle was talking about yesterday.

After he came to the court, he warmed up casually, then picked up the basketball on the ground and started shooting. Then, the sound of the Nets tumbling has never been interrupted! Even if it's just shooting practice without noise and defense, Yi Yang still has to admit that this guy's three-point shooting is really terrible!

As more and more people warmed up,

As the game got closer and closer, Cuban also left the court and sat in his own seat.

Before the game started, TNT specially gave Yiyang and Curry a split-screen shot, and then printed the data of their last game at the bottom of the screen.

Although the Warriors lost to the Thunder in the last game, Curry scored 39 points with a super high shooting rate of 70%! It can be said that facing Westbrook, this is a very crazy and terrifying statistic.

As for Yiyang, he scored 23 points and 7 assists in back-to-back battles to help the Mavericks win nine consecutive victories. He is not a soft persimmon.

"There is no doubt that these two young guards will be the key to determining the outcome of the game. How terrifying is Curry's madness? You can also call Westbrook and ask. It is also the same as Kidd's defense today. The pressure will undoubtedly be very high, and although the Warriors have a poor record this season, it does not mean that the Mavericks will win easily." As soon as Kenny Smith finished speaking, the referee blew his whistle on the court and put the The basketball is thrown high into the air.

Warriors starting center Andris Biedrins from Latvia, although he is tall and long, was helplessly beaten by Chandler, who jumped even higher.

The first time the Mavericks attacked, Cuban cheered for the team with the fans, without any pretensions of a rich man.

At this moment, standing in front of Kidd was Stephen Curry, who made Carlisle very afraid. Curry's weakness was the same as Yiyang's, that is, a slightly thinner body and weaker confrontation ability. So, Kidd was not polite to Curry, he reached out for a pick and roll, but Chandler didn't make the offer immediately, but suddenly fell!

The referee blew the whistle immediately, and people didn't pay much attention to it. Everyone thought it was just an ordinary foul by Biedrins.

However, the iron-blooded tough guy Chandler did not stand up immediately. Instead, he fell to the ground in pain and hugged his ankles with both hands!

"No, no, don't do this!" Carlisle stood up nervously, and the Mavericks team doctor rushed into the field immediately.

On the big screen at the scene, the replay just started immediately. It turned out that at the moment Chandler was about to go to the pick-and-roll, Biedrins also started immediately, and then accidentally stepped on Chandler's running foot.

Under the strong pressure of two different forces, Chandler's instep bent downward at an exaggerated angle. Played back in slow motion, this scene is really shocking to watch.

Although Biedrins did it completely unintentionally, the referee still gave him a flagrant first-degree foul. The Mavericks got two free throws, but watching Chandler walk to the court with the support of his teammates, Carlisle would rather not have this free throw!

Marion and Nowitzki helped Chandler to the bench, and then the Mavericks staff immediately took over and helped the strong man to the player tunnel.

Yiyang just saw Chandler's distorted and painful expression clearly. It seems that in today's game, the Mavericks will lose their most important defensive barrier.

Helpless, Carlisle had to replace the Frenchman Petro. The Mavericks' advantage at the fifth position was wiped out in an instant.

Afterwards, the Mavericks seized two opportunities for free throws, but the attack after throwing the ball came to an end in the sound of Nowitzki's iron strike.

Warriors All-Star forward David Lee grabbed the rebound and 'handed' the ball to that baby-faced No. 30.

Curry immediately pushed, but 'Monta' Ellis raised his hand and yelled for the ball. There is no way, Curry has to pass the ball out, not letting that "ball bully" play well first, and the whole team will not be able to run smoothly in the future.

Facing the strong but not fast-moving Deshaun Stevenson, Monta Ellis made a three-threat move with the ball and suddenly broke through!

The speed of this guy's first step was astonishingly fast, causing Stevenson to be thrown away by half of his body in an instant.

If Chandler is here, even if Ellis succeeds in breaking through, Carlisle doesn't have to worry. But the Frenchman Petro, obviously cannot be compared with Chandler's top frame protector.

Seeing Ellis breaking through, Petro quickly dropped Biedrins to defend the inside line, but the lightning-fast Ellis had already jumped for a layup, the Frenchman was a step slower, and Stevenson couldn't keep up in time. Just like that, a breakthrough straight into the heart allowed Ellis to crush the Mavericks' defense!

"'Monta Ellis' breakthrough is like a sharp knife. Losing Tyson is really a big trouble for the Mavericks' defense!" Even Kenny Smith had to admire Ellis' luck. He was injured and left at the beginning of the game. This time, Ellis can boldly hit the basket.

In the next attack, Kidd leaned on Curry's layup but was blocked by David Lee who suddenly came out. Curry made a long pass after receiving the basketball, making Ellis, who was running at the front, the vanguard in the conversion attack.

Facing Marion who was close behind him, Ellis continued to accelerate, gradually opening the distance between Marion and himself. Afterwards, this seemingly thin but powerful guard successfully dunked with one hand, boos were heard in the American Airlines Center arena. But Ellis didn't care. Instead, he opened his palm next to his ear, signaling the Mavericks fans to speak louder.

"The Warriors scored easily again. It seems that when the Mavericks meet the Warriors, they always make inexplicable mistakes."

Fortunately, another attack by the Mavericks, Nowitzki used his signature step-back jumper to bite the score for the Mavericks. But soon, David Lee used a left-handed hook with his back to open the gap again.

Facing a striker who can attack with both left and right hands and has extremely delicate skills, Nowitzki has met his opponent today.

Although the Warriors are aggressive, the No. 30 that Carlisle emphasized yesterday has not performed much today.

The game lasted for several minutes, the scores of the two sides were very tight, and the Warriors still had the advantage in terms of momentum.

This time, the Warriors' offense wasn't fast, and Monta Ellis, who was already playing well, didn't seem to be in a hurry to get the ball.

Curry made a few gestures, and David Lee immediately mentioned the high position. However, Curry didn't want to play a pick-and-roll with David Lee. He just passed the ball to David Lee who was in the middle and long distance, and then ran away immediately.

Although David Lee didn't have a three-point shot, within the three-point line, that was his shooting range. Therefore, Nowitzki didn't dare to let go of a single step, and everyone thought this shot was a singles tactic for David Lee.

But only Kidd knew that this ball was actually a tactic that Curry called for himself! This No. 30 knew that Kidd was a little tired after playing for several minutes, so he used fast running to consume Kidd's body!

Finally, the distance between Kidd and Curry was gradually widened. Curry circled beyond the three-point line again and raised his hand for the ball. David Lee is a good long passer, his pass is just right, very comfortable, Curry catches the ball and shoots!

Kidd followed the pace of No. 30 and jumped suddenly, but Curry's super fast shot speed surprised Kidd.

It can be said that Kidd has defended very well. But Curry's quick shot allowed him to complete the shot before Kidd's interference formed.

Old Kidd immediately turned his head to stare at the basketball, just in time to see the basketball hollow into the net. That baby-faced expression was as indifferent as Yiyang's. He raised his arms and showed three fingers. At the beginning of the game, Curry used a three-pointer to severely hit the Mavericks' defense at the No. 1 position!

The referee's whistle sounded, and Carlisle, who was 5 points behind, called a timeout. Kidd walked off the court panting, confronting a guard like Curry running all over the court, it really made his old bones tired.

"Take a rest, Jason, and get ready to play! Keep an eye on Curry, and don't let him go for a moment!" Carlisle's tone was so unquestionable.

"Yeah." Yiyang nodded lightly, and answered casually. After that, he stood up and took off his training clothes.

Stephen Curry, let's have a showdown!
