One Guard

The night before the game, Nowitzki barely slept. It wasn't because he was anxious about today's game, but because the fever hadn't subsided, and Nowitzki was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep at all.

Two hours before the start of the game, news of Nowitzki's high fever spread throughout the world. Although it is not something to be thankful for being around others, this is undoubtedly great news for the Big Three of the Heat!

Especially Chris Bosh, when he was still changing equipment in the locker room, the "Dragon King" was already eager to try. The finals played three games, and Bosh was abused by Nowitzki for three games. If the German really played sick today, he would not show mercy!

A basketball court is like a battlefield, so don't expect Dirk's fever to win the sympathy of his opponents. On the contrary, the weaker Dirk was, the more likely he would become the opponent's key target.

"Chris, you have to play more aggressively today! Regardless of whether Dirk will play sick or not, the Mavericks' 4th position will become very weak! Keep the ball in the paint. We need to use both inside and outside today. Play all the offense!" Spoelstra also hopes to take advantage of the opportunity of Nowitzki's illness and move the series to a 2-2 tie.

As for Yiyang? Although the rookie once staged a layup lore, Spoelstra believes that as long as there is no Dirk, the Mavericks will never want to win!

Inside the home locker room at the American Airlines Center, everyone seemed restless. They always stared at the locker room door from time to time, then shook their heads sighing.

People are waiting for Nowitzki's arrival. They hope that after the German pushed the door in today, he will be in a state of high spirits.

But half an hour has passed since Carlisle's latest arrival time, but Nowitzki has not yet appeared. This can't help but make the Mavericks players flustered. Dirk, will he not be here today?

When everyone changes their equipment and prepares to warm up. The thick locker room door was slammed open, and Nowitzki walked in sweating profusely, with flushed cheeks. It looked as though the fever hadn't gone away.

Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing, and their eyes fell on Nowitzki.

"Are you okay, Dirk." Seeing Nowitzki's sweaty head, Kidd felt that Dirk's illness not only did not improve, but worsened.

Nowitzki waved his hand, then sat down in front of his cabinet. The German leaned his head back against the cabinet, looking as tired as if he had just finished a game. "No problem, no problem. You go warm up first, guys, I'll be right there!"

Everyone knew that Dirk must be very uncomfortable now, so they didn't urge him, and everyone went to the field to warm up first. After everyone left, Di Ke found that Yiyang was still inside.

"What's the matter? I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Nowitzki forced a smile at Yiyang, it's no wonder this guy is fine!

"I'll pass the ball to you, buddy." However, Yi Yang suddenly said these words coldly.

This time, Nowitzki's smile became more natural.

"Then I'll score!" Nowitzki stretched out his fist and touched Yiyang lightly.

Yes, I still have such a group of teammates by my side, nothing to be afraid of!

"Unfortunately,

Mavericks officials have just confirmed that Dirk Nowitzki's flu has not improved. The latest body temperature just now is 382°. If my body temperature is so high, I may not even be able to complete the commentary work. I really can't believe how Dirk will deal with the fierce competition later! Looking at the latest news in his hand, Kenny Smith couldn't help shaking his head in disappointment. Dallas must be a city cursed by God, otherwise they wouldn't have encountered so much trouble in the finals.

"Today, the Miami Heat's defensive focus will definitely be on Yi. As long as Yi is blocked, the threat of the Mavericks on the offensive end will be reduced by half! It may be difficult for Dirk to play a dominant performance today. This is an opportunity for the Big Three. ... If they want to tie the game, there is no more suitable time than this." Even Barkley, who has always been optimistic about the Mavericks, is not very optimistic today.

Jordan was able to kill the game with a high fever back then because Jordan no longer belongs to the category of "person". Although Nowitzki played a historic performance in this year's playoffs, no one still believes that this German can create the myth of Jordan.

In the first attack after the start of the game, Nowitzki's weakness appeared under the high-intensity confrontation.

For the first ball in the opening game, Yiyang asked Nowitzki for a pick-and-roll, trying to launch an offense through the pick-and-roll. However, Nowitzki's pick-and-roll did not delay Wade well. Nowitzki felt weak all over, and Wade squeezed past him with a little effort.

Fortunately, Wade's speed is not as fast as before. Even though he quickly bypassed the pick-and-roll, he was still surpassed by Yiyang by half a body. Yiyang took advantage of this half position and made a layup with a low hand, and the Mavericks broke the deadlock first.

Although Yiyang's goal with Wade Biao's speed is very exciting, Mavericks fans are still worried. On the defensive end later, what should Dirk do?

Soft, this is the most significant change that Bosh found in Nowitzki today. Nowitzki wanted to be tough, but his feverish body didn't support him. Bosh leaned on Dirk and leaned back hard. Immediately, a very good offensive position was seized near the three-second zone.

Bosh raised his hand to ask for the ball, and Bibby passed the ball over Yiyang's head and sent it to the "Dragon King".

The opportunity to avenge his shame came, and Bosh gritted his teeth. He wanted to hit with the ball behind his back! This guy wants to use the most brutal way to vent all the grievances from the past!

"Bang!" Bosh leaned back forcefully, and the muffled sound of the collision between muscles made the fans in the stands tremble with fear. While they felt sorry for Dirk, they cursed Bosh. But this will not stop Bosh, but will make him more excited to play!

"Boom!" The second time, Bosh's recoil seems to be stronger. Nowitzki looked shaky, but he did not give up, endured the torture and continued to stick to Bosh's side.

At this point, Bosh has advanced to the three-second zone. In this position, if he turns over and shoots a jumper, Bosh is still very sure. Dirk Nowitzki, let you taste the humiliation today!

Back swaying, stepping back, turning over and jumping. Bosh's movements were completed in one go, and Nowitzki's reaction was half a beat slower, and he couldn't jump at all.

Bosh in the air couldn't help smiling, but at this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped out, completely covering the "Dragon King".

Bosh shot the basketball, but the black shadow was still flying upwards. He blocked the way of the basketball, and slapped the basketball that Bosh just threw back!

"Tyson Chandler, his supplementary defense is perfect! A powerful block, he seems to be telling Chris, never want to take advantage of Dirk!"

The basketball is fanned, which is

Yiyang seems to be a signal to launch a fast break. He tried to run toward the basketball, stretched out his long arms, and caught the ball that was rejected by Chandler before everyone else.

Chandler's block was like stepping on the accelerator of Yiyang's "sports car". As soon as he grabbed the ball, Yiyang turned around and ran away!

"Whoosh!" The Mavericks players seemed to see a bolt of lightning running through the field, but behind Yiyang's bolt of lightning, LeBron James, the "humanoid tank", was still chasing after him.

Yiyang has to admire James' physical fitness, he can always react quickly and immediately speed up to bite the attacker. If you just layup like this, James will definitely press the ball to the backboard. Yiyang looked at the follow-up route of his teammates and decided to think of other ways.

In the blink of an eye, Yiyang, who was moving at super high speed, had entered the three-second zone. James is like a falcon, biting the rabbit that is running wildly in front of his eyes.

Behind James, Marion was also running hard, trying to support Yiyang. Yiyang held the ball with both hands, turned around, and lifted the basketball. It looked like he was about to pass the ball to Marion behind him!

This time, James' attention was distracted. He was just about to reach out to steal, but Yiyang suddenly withdrew the basketball and his eyes, and put the basketball lightly into the frame before running too far.

"Another fake facsimile, and I won't be surprised to see Yi complete these moves. After a crazy season, we have long been used to Yi's beautiful fake pass. 4 to 0, it seems The start of the Heat team is not as smooth as people imagined!"

When Nowitzki was weak, everyone on the Mavericks stepped forward to help Nowitzki share the pressure. Chandler's timely supplementary defense and Yiyang's sharp fast break undoubtedly made the Heat suffer, and he had to divert his attention from Nowitzki.

In the last game, the Heat lost to the Mavericks who were all soldiers. It seems that today, the Mavericks still have to use the power of the team to make up for their disadvantage in superstars.

In the following games, the resilience shown by the Mavericks made the Heat play very passively.

On the defensive end, although Nowitzki, who has a high fever, is a weakness, other people's active defense and assistance can always save the day.

On the offensive end, as Dirk said. Yiyang is like a bottle of "super glue" that binds everyone together.

Marion, Chandler, Terry and even Stevenson, who was not good at attacking, were all under Yiyang's organization, and they were attacking brilliantly.

The Heat couldn't find a defensive center of gravity at all, because Yiyang's ball could be passed to anyone on the court. Anyone can score.

Even Dirk, who was suffering from a high fever, received two wonderful passes from Yiyang and hit a half-block basket.

Halfway through the first quarter, only Wade performed normally among the Heat's Big Three. James couldn't find the rhythm like sleepwalking, and Bosh, who was eager to "do something wrong" on Nowitzki's head, suffered from the restrictions of the defense and didn't get too many opportunities.

Seeing this, Spoelstra had to disable the first timeout of the game. The Mavericks are far tougher than they imagined, and the high fever cannot be a roadblock preventing them from winning.

Watching the Big Three of the Heat walk off the court in a state of embarrassment, the fans cheered one by one! did you see it? We are the Dallas Mavericks, not Dallas Nowitzki! We are united, we are invincible!

Barkley didn't speak for a long time, because he was completely stunned by the ability of the Mavericks to survive in adversity. People say that the Mavericks often fail in the playoffs, but Barkley knows that is a thing of the past. The current Dallas Mavericks are scary, really scary!

"The tenacity of this team is enough to support them to win the O'Brien Cup!" Charles Barkley said.
