One Guard

Derrick Rose won the mvp, which also made him the youngest mvp winner in nba history. People say that a new generation of defenders is about to change the world. Basketball fans around the world were shocked that Rose was elected MVP during the rookie contract period. Everyone felt that the next "Michael Jordan" who led Chicago's rise had already been born!

It seemed that the whole world was shrouded in the red storm that Rose created, but the city of Dallas seemed to have some kind of isolation device set up around it.

The fact that Rose won the mvp did not bring much sensation to the city. Even in the local sports papers in Dallas, it didn't make the headlines.

For the citizens of Dallas, it doesn't matter that Rose has won ten mvp. Because tonight, the Western Conference Finals between the Dallas Mavericks and the Oklahoma City Thunder is the most important thing in the world for the citizens of Dallas!

Looking at the words "Western Finals" printed on both sides of the hard floor of the American Airlines Center Arena, Cuban felt both familiar and unfamiliar.

I really didn't expect that this season, just because of recruiting a rookie named Yiyang, the Mavericks could reach this point. The last time the Mavericks played in the Western Conference Finals seemed to be many years ago. Which time, the Mavericks won the Western Conference championship as they wished, but lost the league championship. I don't know if everything will go smoothly this year...

"How about sitting there watching the game today?" Carlisle suddenly appeared behind Cuban, startling the chubby Mavericks owner.

"Damn, do you still have no sound when you walk!? Today, I will sit behind the team's bench. The players are preparing for the game, right?" Cuban said, looking at the players who were warming up on the field .

"The morale is high, the physical condition is good, and there is not too much psychological pressure. The players are in excellent condition." Carlisle replied confidently, which made Cuban feel extremely relieved.

"That's good, I'm really looking forward to you guys beating those young boys in Oklahoma to their teeth at home!" Cuban said, clenched his fists and swung his inflexible arms.

At this moment, the phone in Cuban's trousers pocket rang.

"I have to get the players' families into the field. Everyone is here today, don't mess it up!" Cuban patted Carlisle on the shoulder, then walked into the player tunnel and disappeared on the basketball court.

Carlisle looked at Cuban's fat back, smiled and shook his head. It is really a blessing for Dallas fans to have a boss who is willing to devote himself to the basketball career......

The Mavericks players have begun warming up on the court,

At this time, outside the American Airlines Center Arena, the Thunder's team bus has just arrived.

Before the car came to a complete stop, the reporters had already swarmed up and surrounded the bus tightly. Wearing skinny ripped jeans and a light blue denim jacket, Westbrook was the first to step off the bus, and his exaggerated and weird clothing style in his life always attracts people's attention.

Wearing fancy clothes and sunglasses, Westbrook seemed to be walking on a red carpet at the moment, facing the reporters' cameras, he would occasionally stop and wave to the crowd. Although Westbrook has a flamboyant personality, he is actually a very friendly guy who rarely gives reporters a face.

Behind Westbrook is Durant, who is tall and long, with legs under his neck. Compared to Westbrook, Durant is much more low-key. He only wore an ordinary hooded sweater and a pair of sweatpants, looking very ordinary. Facing the cameras of the reporters, Durant didn't say anything, but kept his head down and walked forward.

One is introverted and silent, the other is extroverted. These two guys whose personalities don't seem to match at all, are the main reason why the Thunder can go to where they are today! The performance of the two of them on the court will directly affect the outcome of the game.

Of course, among the crowd, although a young defender with a big beard did not receive as much attention as the first two. But the reporters still frantically filmed him. The Thunder's best sixth man is bound to bring huge troubles to the Mavericks!

"Although the Thunder are young, their lineup doesn't look weak!" Mu Ran squeezed into the crowd, really wondering what kind of storm those three young talents could create in Dallas.

"I am used to playing against the old Lakers. I don't know what the Mavericks will do against the young Thunder. Let's go, Mu, let's go to the press area in advance. Otherwise, it will be difficult to squeeze in later." !" One of Mu Ran's colleagues dragged him into the stadium, and the smell of gunpowder seemed to be getting stronger and stronger around the American Airlines Center Arena.

After the first round of warm-up, Nowitzki and his teammates returned to the locker room to make the final deployment and preparations before the game. The Mavericks leader didn't talk much today, and he was very serious on the court. Still the same, Nowitzki is always very serious before important games. Seriousness, emphasis on order, and meticulousness, the unique personalities of these Germans are fully reflected in Nowitzki at the moment.

"You'd better not mess with Dirk today, he's a German tank that can blow up as soon as he wants to!" Terry whispered into Yiyang's ear while putting pairs of socks on his feet.

"Huh?" Yiyang was stunned for a moment, Nowitzki is not a tyrant, so he is not as terrifying as Terry said.

"How many times have I said it, you haven't seen that guy get angry, it doesn't mean he has no temper. You have to be more careful on the court later, don't make mistakes. The German roared, it was quite scary!" Kidd, who was watching from the side, smiled and shook his head with a feigned hideous expression. That guy is scaring Yiyang again.

But really, at this point, Nowitzki will never laugh again. Western Conference champions, this is an honor that no one can refuse. Since winning the Western Conference title last time, the Mavericks have spent many years in ups and downs. In the past few years, they have experienced miserable failures again and again, and even suffered the humiliation of their opponents "Black Eight" and "Black Seven".

Now, after finally breaking through the haze and coming here, how could he fall down hard again?

"Guys, I believe you are familiar with the tactics, and I don't want to talk nonsense. The Thunder have arrived, and they will go to the court to warm up soon! I only have one request, do a good job!" Carlisle saw When the players were almost ready, they launched a final mobilization.

As soon as Carlisle finished speaking, Nowitzki suddenly stood up from his seat, startling everyone.

The German looked around the locker room and made eye contact with everyone. This guy with messy and long hair looked like a golden lion.

"Brothers, let's go!"

Nowitzki took the lead in opening the locker room door and led the players out.

Nowitzki walked the road from the locker room to the basketball court in the American Airlines Center Arena for 13 years! In the past 13 years, he has gone through countless joys and sorrows, countless joys and sorrows. He has won his own honor, but also experienced miserable failures.

But so what? Every time you start from here, it represents a new beginning!

This is Dallas, this is my place!

"Go, go!" Under Nowitzki's roar, the players rushed out of the player channel one by one and stepped onto the court.

"Let's welcome, Dallas~~~~~ Mavericks!" The live DJ yelled just right to ignite the atmosphere of the scene, and the huge noise was really like a sound wave, slapping towards the face.

Yiyang felt that the hairs all over his body stood on end. Every time he advanced to the next round in the playoffs, it would bring Yiyang a new experience.

"The Dallas Mavericks are finally on the stage. Audience friends, welcome to tn.t TV station. The high-profile Western Conference Finals will begin immediately!" Kenny Smith's long-lost voice reappeared on the TVs of every household in Dallas, waiting For more than a week, the flames of war have spread again in this big Texas city.

"What is very surprising is that in this year's Western Conference Finals, we could neither see Kobe nor Duncan's weird smile. Thunder and Mavericks, two teams that were not favored by people before, But reached the top of the Western Conference! I don’t know what a different experience such a brand new matchup combination will bring us.” Charles Barkley also echoed, before the start of this season, he may not even think of himself Will sit at the American Airlines Center in Dallas and commentate on the Western Conference finals. He never imagined that Lei Ting's "Youth Guards" would pass all the way and make such a big breakthrough in performance.

The Western Conference finals without Kobe and Duncan seem to be missing something. But what the Mavericks and Thunder bring to the fans is more freshness.

"The duo of the Thunder are the ones that the Mavericks must be careful of today! The fourth-year Kevin Durant has averaged 27.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game this season. The third-year Westbrook has 21.9 points and 8.6 assists are accounted for! There is no doubt that these two young people have stepped into the ranks of superstars! Maybe in people's eyes, the Thunder is just a young army. But in fact, they are already a team with A powerful team driven by two superstars at the same time! The poor Nuggets and Grizzlies have already experienced the power of these two people, and their fate is not very good. If the Mavericks do not take precautions, they may fall into the same footsteps !” As soon as it came up, Kenny Smith put out the beautiful statistics of Westbrook and Durant.

And Kenny Smith's thoughts actually represent the inner portrayal of most fans. Although the Mavericks swept out the defending champion Lakers with a total score of 4-0 in the last round, subconsciously, people are still not very optimistic about the Mavericks, a team that has frequently lost the chain in the playoffs.

But on the court, the Mavericks players have not received any impact. This season, they all came all the way without being optimistic.

"Yeah, did you see that guy?" During the warm-up, Nowitzki stopped Yiyang, and then pointed to the No. 0 guard in the opposite half, Russell Westbrook.

Yiyang nodded, he didn't know what Deke wanted to tell him.

"I believe you can handle him. Brian said that he has given you special training for the past few days. Hey, let those who think that they can play basketball well with a strong body go to hell!" Nowitzki said and clapped Patting Yiyang on the shoulder seemed to encourage him.

"And then there's the number 9, you know him."

Nowitzki refers to the Thunder's starting power forward, Serge Ibaka, a sports defensive insider with dual citizenship of Congo and Spain.

Although this is only Ibaka's second NBA season, his deterrence on the defensive end has shocked the entire league. Countless excellent insiders have all been defeated by his terrifying bounce and violent blocking.

Yiyang looked at Ibaka, then at Dirk. Still just nodded and didn't speak.

"I'm going to beat that guy too, but, I need your help. I trust you, your ball always arrives, right?"

"No problem, Dirk. Don't worry about my pass."

"Well, listen, people say that Westbrook and Durant are one of the scariest duos in the league. Today, let's show people what kind of duo is really scary. !"

After Nowitzki finished speaking, he stretched out his arm.

The German looked murderous today, he wanted to win, he wanted to bring glory to Dallas. He wants to prove that he is not a softie!

Yiyang walked up, and the two of them crossed their arms forcefully. The power in Nowitzki's body seems to be transmitted to Yiyang's body.

"Beep~~~" The electronic buzzer sounded, the referee signaled that the warm-up time was over, the substitute players were off the field, and the starting players stood at the designated positions, ready to start the game!

Yiyang and Nowitzki took off their training clothes. People say that basketball is a sport dominated by blacks, but Yiyang and Dirk are not black athletes. But today, skin color will not be a roadblock to their victory!

A duo is better than a duo, if you don't try it, how will you know?

"beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, and the basketball was thrown into the air. It looked so dazzling in the brightly lit stadium...
