One Guard

Yiyang made two consecutive magic-like passes. Although they still failed to help the team equalize the score, there is no doubt that the Mavericks have broken the deadlock in terms of momentum.

This is especially evident in Tyson Chandler.

Because of Yiyang's two passes, Chandler is the biggest beneficiary. The "Champion of Boxers" scored two easy dunks thanks to Yiyang's pass.

And after two dunks on the offensive end, Chandler's enthusiasm on the defensive end was also fully mobilized.

This time the Lakers attacked, Kobe tried several times to break through Stevenson, but he didn't get a chance.

There is no way, just to be on the safe side, Kobe passed the ball to Gasol, and then moved himself, allowing Gasol to support the attack in a high position.

When Kobe reaches the right corner, Gasol passes the ball immediately. Just when people thought Kobe would attack by himself, Bynum suddenly leaned against Chandler to take his position and raised his arms.

Kobe did not hesitate to make Bynum more and more core, which is what the Lakers are trying to do now. As the dominance of "Little Shark" continues to rise, more and more balls hit him.

Bynum was solid down the line, and Chandler couldn't squeeze him out of the ball zone. And if you use too much force, you may get into foul trouble again.

Therefore, Bynum was not disturbed too much. His big hand with five fingers spread out was like a suction cup, which firmly "sucked" the basketball into his hand.

"Gasol pulled up to the high post, the Lakers emptied the basket, and Bynum wanted to play alone!"

Bynum felt Chandler's defense with his back. Chandler was very tough and seemed to be defending. What's the best way to deal with top defense? There is no doubt that it is turning around and breaking through!

Thinking of this, Bynum did not hesitate, slapped the basketball on the ground, and then turned around.

However, the situation did not develop as Bynum expected. After he successfully turned around, Chandler did not lose his position because his center of gravity was all forward. Because just now Chandler wasn't a top defense at all, he just had a particularly stable bottom plate, which made Bynum unable to shake that's all.

After Bynum turned around, what greeted him was not the basket with the door open, but Chandler's tough pressing!

But things have come to this point, and there is no turning back. Without getting rid of Chandler's defense, Bynum forced a jump to dunk.

Perhaps, the confrontation with Okafor in the last round made Bynum a little carried away. But not everyone in this league is Okafor. Not all teams' interior defenses are as vulnerable as the Hornets.

Just as Bynum lifted the basketball, a huge sense of oppression came from the side.

Chandler swung his arms and slapped them hard. Unbiased, just shot the basketball in Bynum's hands!

"Block the dunk! Bynum's offensive selection is not good, and he pays for it!"

The basketball was blown away, Yiyang leaped high and controlled it before it went out of bounds.

A blocked shot created an opportunity to switch offenses on the field. How could Yiyang waste such an opportunity?

The No. 1 defender is instantly activated, and he seems to be able to maximize his speed from the first step.

Generally speaking, a player's speed is gradually increased. But Yiyang is different, from the very beginning, he can adjust the speed to the fastest.

"Swoosh!" A whirlwind blew up on the basketball court,

The Lakers players struggled to recover. After Yiyang stepped into the three-point line, Artest, who was biting the tightest, stretched out his hand, ready to grab Yiyang's jersey.

However, Artest pulled nothing. He only held a cloud of air, this guy can't even commit a foul!

Yiyang flicked lightly, and the basketball fell into the net as it scraped the backboard. Although Yiyang did not end the attack with a dunk in the end, his speedy dash through the audience was enough to make the fans hooked.

"It was too fast, and Artest had no chance to foul. One point, the Mavericks instantly narrowed the point difference to one point. Their excellent defense gave them an opportunity to attack. And Yi's excellent performance, the Let the Mavericks firmly grasp these opportunities. The game is getting more and more intense Kevin, what do you think both sides need to pay attention to next?"

"For the Lakers, their defense must be tighter. Because, as long as you give him a little space, he can pass the ball to you!"

In the following games, the two sides played inextricably, you come and go. The Mavericks scored a goal here, and the Lakers immediately returned one.

Kobe managed to widen the point difference, and the Mavericks will always recover quickly.

Kobe's injured ankle seems to be recovering well. In the first quarter of the game, "Black Mamba" scored 10 points like cutting melons and vegetables. However, the Mavericks, who were blooming more, ended the first quarter of the game with a 25-23 lead and a two-point lead.

"At the beginning of the game, when Kobe scored 7 points in a row, I thought the Mavericks were going to be over. But soon, they adjusted. Look, now the leading team has become the Mavericks. The Lakers first Kobe is undoubtedly the key player in the first quarter, so who do you think is the key player for the Mavericks in the first quarter?" During the break between quarters, the job of the commentators is the most difficult. Because they have to continue to find topics for the fans without the game screen, so as not to let the fans turn the channel because they are bored,

"Dirk scored six points in the first quarter, the highest score in the Mavericks. But as a key player, I still choose him. Without his pass, the Mavericks may not recover so quickly. And a single quarter The data of 4 points and 3 assists is definitely not bad. As the game progresses, Coach Carlisle will definitely send out a double point guard formation. At that time, we will also face Kobe, and we will be able to feast our eyes." Kevin Harlan rubbed his hands, Carlisle, Carlisle, quickly show what the fans want!

"Ron, when did your defense become so clean! What? Have you become a docile lamb!?" During the intermission, the first thing "Zen Master" Jackson emphasized was defense.

Don't think that the head coach doesn't like a guy like Artest who plays dirty. If he doesn't like it, how can such a person survive in the league? Their dirty is exactly what the coaches need.

"Strengthen the defense! Don't let the Mavericks score easily anymore. Switch defenses decisively. Also, try to seal that rookie's passing lane and force him to make turnovers! Forget your damn status as defending champions, here, only Those who try their best can win!" Jackson finished what he needed to say in a few words, and then the white-haired old man left the crowd and sat back in his seat.

The "Zen Master" is like this, he never said any more nonsense. But now the break between festivals is not over yet, so the person in charge of speaking has become Kobe.

"You all heard what the old man said. Be fierce and increase physical confrontation. The main offensive method of the Mavericks is the jump shot. As long as we press all the way, it will be difficult for them to get a shot. Come on, we can do it!"

"Defense! We did a good job defending in the first quarter. Next, I want you to keep it up." On the other side, Carlisle also focused on defense. If you want to win in the playoffs, defense is the safest way.

Before the start of the second quarter, Carlisle looked at Yiyang, then at Kidd. Kidd is in good form today. During the time when Yiyang came on as a substitute, he sorted out the team's offense very well. But if we let Yiyang face Kobe now...

Carlisle shook his head, the double point guard formation, let's not rush to put it up.

After the start of the second quarter, the performance of the two teams did not disappoint the fans. Both sides continued their good form in the first quarter, and the score was difficult to draw for a while.

At the 8th minute and 40 seconds of the second quarter, Yiyang tricked Fischer with a fake facsimile, changed direction and broke through, directly killing the penalty area.

At this time, Gasol was nailed to a high position by Nowitzki. Chandler firmly stuck Bynum behind him, preventing him from going up to make up the defense.

It seems that Yiyang is bound to win this goal.

However, just as Yiyang took off and was about to make a layup. Artest, the most famous villain in the history of the nba league, suddenly ran towards Yiyang like a small truck. Yiyang was severely knocked to the ground by the impact, and naturally the basketball was dropped directly.

"Oh!" The entire court exclaimed, Artest is simply a malicious foul!

However, the referee made a penalty for an ordinary defensive foul on the technical table! This move immediately made the fans in the stands very dissatisfied and booed everywhere.

"Are you sure? Or is it that you don't understand the rules of basketball games at all!?" Carlisle opened his arms and yelled at the referee off the court. If Stotts hadn't stopped him in time, Carlisle might have swallowed a technical foul.

Artest walked away with an innocent face, completely ignoring Yiyang who was knocked to the ground by him. He acted as if nothing had happened.

"Are you okay!" Nowitzki was the first to run up to Yiyang and asked about Yiyang's situation.

"It's okay, but, fuck, it really hurts..." Grabbing Nowitzki and Chandler's forearms, Yiyang stood up again.

I don't know if it was because of the hard fall just now, but Yiyang missed a shot at the free throw line, only scoring one point for the Mavericks. Turning Yiyang's inevitable two points into one point, Artest's intentional foul can be said to be worth the money.

Nowitzki turned his head to look at the villain with an innocent face. What he hated the most was someone who attacked a newcomer, Yiyang. After all, this is in his own territory, bullying his little brother in his own territory, doesn't that mean he doesn't take himself seriously? As a result, the Germans, who have always been docile, are also thinking crookedly at this moment.

Two minutes later, the score between the two sides was still tight. But the Lakers have already achieved a 5-point lead by relying on Kobe's personal performance.

This time, Kobe bravely broke into the inside line of a forest of strong men, causing damage.

Kobe is on the line, but Nowitzki's attention is not on Kobe at all. Because at this time, Artest was standing next to Nowitzki, ready to fight for rebounds that might appear after free throws.

Kobe hit the first free throw. The second free throw, I don't know if God understood Nowitzki's heart, after the basketball swiped around in the frame, it really slid out.

Nowitzki responded immediately, stretching his long arms and grabbing the defensive rebound. Artest is close behind the German, also want to try to steal.

As a result, Nowitzki held the ball with both hands and twisted his waist, seemingly intending to protect the ball. But in fact, Nowitzki's elbow was quietly hit on Artest's nose.

Unexpectedly, Artest fell to the ground suddenly and covered his face with his hands. Originally, the referee didn't see anything, but after being messed up by Artest, the referee immediately applied to go to the technical station to watch the replay.

"Shit!" Nowitz basically thought that as a tough guy, Artest would bear these alone. However, that guy is just a cunning fox.

In fact, it's not that Artest wanted to act on purpose, it's because Dirk's elbow just now was really "exciting". Artest felt that if he didn't get some back for himself, it would be too much of a disadvantage.

Through video playback, the referee clearly saw the picture of Nowitzki elbowing Artest. As a result, Nowitzki was sentenced to a technical foul, and the Lakers had to make free throws!

"Fuck, now you see the foul again? Then why didn't you see it just now?" Carlisle now had to take off his suit and go to the field to fix the damn referee. Nowitzki also complained to the referee that he was unintentional, but the referee ignored it.

In this way, a free throw by Artest widened the point difference to 6 points. After that, the Lakers have another chance for a throw-in.

"Dirk!" Carlisle yelled into the arena.

Nowitzki turned his head and found Carlisle pressing down hard with both hands. This is to remind yourself, calm down!

But the game has come to this point, it is not easy to calm down. In the subsequent games, the physical contact between the two sides became more and more frequent and fierce. "Zen Master" Jackson's arrangement worked, but Carlisle didn't want to see his players fall into hand-to-hand combat.

During this period, Yiyang had suffered a lot. Of course, he also did bad things to others.

The increase in the number of fouls has greatly reduced the fluency of the game. At the same time, the behavior of fans on both sides in the stands became more and more intense. The stadium security had to set up a cordon between the fans on both sides to prevent special situations from happening.

The entire second quarter was spent in the process of the two teams secretly competing. Kobe went on a killing spree and scored wildly, making the Mavericks once again passive.

Three seconds before the end of the game, the score had become 50 to 44. With Kobe's efforts, the Lakers led by 6 points.

In the last three seconds, the Lakers sent the baseline ball. Normally, the score of the half-time game should not change.

However, a dramatic scene appeared. Since the time was only three seconds, Odom shot directly as soon as halftime passed.

But Odom, who was angry, did not shoot in a proper manner, but ran into Yiyang, and then released the ball.

Odom himself refused to accept that he lost to a Chinese rookie in the competition for the best sixth man, and today the two sides were very angry, so Odom made this decision.

Yiyang was at a loss, and before he realized what happened, he was knocked to the ground by Odom. The referee's whistle sounded, and everyone thought the referee would blow Odom an offensive foul.

However, when the referee gestured towards the technical table, the entire American Airlines Center Arena was overturned by boos.

The referee calls a defensive foul by Yiyang, and Odom, will stand at the free throw line and execute three free throws.

A free throw in midcourt resulted in three free throws, and Odom leapt to his feet in an instant.

And Yiyang, this taciturn guy, with fierce eyes, forced him towards the referee...
