One Guard
Chapter 363: Fate hanging by a thread
Genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! When Odom is on the court, the Mavericks are a mess on both offense and defense. However, when Carlisle pressed Odom to the bench, the Mavericks played a wonderful offensive.
Yiyang's back-folding dunks silenced the crowded Chesapeake Energy Arena. Thunder fans couldn't believe it. Cardinal, who looked like a grocery store owner, successfully defended Ibaka and assisted Yiyang to perform a rock-shattering dunk in Westbrook's way. .
Looking at Cardinal and Yiyang who were celebrating intimately on the court, Thunder coach Brooks could only shake his head helplessly. Who would have thought that just one change in personnel could turn the Mavericks upside down?
The Mavericks are a team team. As long as a "part" in this team is not in control, the Mavericks will have symptoms of "limited movement". But if everyone is twisted together, the strength of the defending champion will definitely surprise everyone!
While the Mavericks players were celebrating Yiyang's wonderful dunk just now, ESPN's on-site cameraman pointed the camera at Lamar Odom who was sitting on the bench.
I saw Odom covered his head with a towel, staring blankly ahead. This former "all-round fighter" didn't have any expression at this time. Maybe he is still thinking about why the Lakers abandoned him. Damn the business league, damn Dallas!
Yiyang's dunk undoubtedly boosted the Mavericks' morale. Afterwards, the young Lei Ting wanted to fight back, but encountered strong obstacles.
In the ninth minute of the second quarter, Westbrook's breakthrough layup was blocked by Brandon Haywood. And this is also the first block Haywood has sent since re-joining the Mavericks.
After successfully blocking the shot, Yiyang made a breakthrough and assisted Vince Carter to hit the bullseye with a three-pointer. After the tepid performance in the first two games, Carter finally played at the level today.
Subsequently, the active Cardinal succeeded in stealing Ibaka, and the Mavericks got a fast break opportunity. Yiyang took control of the situation, and after getting inside, he tricked Perkins with a fake fax and successfully made a layup.
Brooks may have never imagined that the Mavericks could play such an efficient offense without Nowitzki playing. Last season, the Mavericks were extremely dependent on Nowitzki. The period when Nowitzki is off the court is usually the weakest period for the Mavericks.
But this year, with the growth of Yiyang, the Mavericks can no longer rely so much on the "German chariot". Although he is still the most important member of the team, Yiyang has undoubtedly begun to help Dirk share the burden of carrying the team.
When the point difference was once again widened to 8 points by the Mavericks, the young Brooks had to stop the game again. He no longer knew how many times he was stopped by the Mavericks today. In short, the easy victory he imagined was definitely impossible. Even if you win, it will be very hard to win today.
"The defending champion's performance today left us extremely impressed. Ten minutes into the second quarter, the Mavericks had an 8-point lead. And you must know that during this time, Dirk has been resting on the sidelines Yes, he led the Mavericks to an offensive frenzy. I believe that after Dirk comes back, the Mavericks’ firepower will become more intense. What do you think of today’s situation, Shaq? After all, before the game, everyone agreed that the Thunder Will take the Mavericks lightly." Barkley deliberately threw this question at O'Neal with malicious intentions.
O'Neill scratched his fat head. The performance of the Mavericks today was indeed unexpectedly good. But in terms of mouth, he must not lose to that annoying guy in Barkley!
"From the current point of view, the performance of the defending champion is indeed very eye-catching. But even half of the game has not been finished, so it is not certain who will win!"
After the timeout ended, the Mavericks skipped over Odom,
Let Nowitzki go straight back into the game. On the Thunder side, James Harden was replaced, allowing the three players to play at the same time. Both sides showed their own fierce firepower. From the second game, the game entered a fierce stage.
After Nowitzki re-entered the court, he once again showed impressive strength. Ibaka and Perkins took turns to switch defenses, but both failed to restrain the advance of the "German tank".
And the Thunder are not to be outdone. Durant, the scoring leader in the two quarters, Westbrook, who is full of impact, and Harden, one of the best sixth men in the league, have brought a lot of trouble to the Mavericks.
Harden is always able to contain the defense, Durant feels hot, like Nowitzki, no matter how he shoots. As for Westbrook, this guy's unexpected breakthrough can always bring unexpected surprises to the Thunder.
With the Thunder's three young players playing at the same time, the young Oklahoma City Thunder showed their impressive strength. The score was getting closer, not because the Mavericks were bad, but because the Thunder were really strong.
The game got pretty tense, and the Mavericks made no mistakes after waiving Odom and have been trying to control the situation. And the young Lei Ting has been relentlessly chasing after him.
This anxious situation continued until the last minute of the fourth quarter. When Durant made a shot against Carter's defense from the three-point line, the score became 96 to 101! In the last minute, the Mavericks trailed by five points. If the Mavericks cannot recover the situation within one minute, then everything they have done tonight will be in vain!
"Kevin is really amazing. This is his 30th point in this game! The young Kevin Durant can already compete with Dirk Nowitzki on the court. In 60 seconds, A 5-point lead. The Oklahoma City Thunder have firmly controlled the situation in their own hands!"
Barkley didn't contradict O'Neal's words because it was true. The Mavericks played very well today, but the Thunder's strength is too strong. After a summer of evolution, the young Thunder has become a top team in the league. It is not surprising that they were able to complete the overtake in adversity.
At this moment, Barkley can only pray silently in his heart, the Mavericks must survive until the last moment!
The Mavericks started a new round of offense with Yiyang holding the ball. With only one minute left in the game and five points behind, the pressure undoubtedly fell on the Mavericks. If it was another young point guard, he might not even be able to handle the ball steadily now. But Yiyang remained expressionless when he controlled the ball and advanced, as if everything was under control.
"Today's performance is also very eye-catching. So far in the game, he has scored 25 points. This number is second only to Dirk and Durant. You know, the two names in front of him are all in the In the range of super scorers. At the last moment, we can look forward to Yi's performance."
Yiyang controlled the ball for halftime, and Westbrook slammed it up viciously. Facing the Minnesota Timberwolves in the last game, Westbrook scored 28 points and taught a lesson to Spain's "golden boy" Rubio who made his debut in the NBA. But today, facing Yiyang's defense, Westbrook has only scored 16 points so far, and his shooting has just stabilized at 40%. It can be said that Westbrook lost to Yiyang again today.
But this strong defender will not raise the white flag to surrender, he hopes to use his tough defense to bring the same trouble to Yiyang! Want to steal the win? no way!
Westbrook directly entangled him. If it wasn't for Yiyang's skillful ball handling skills, he might really have been made a mistake by this kind of pressing defense.
"Westbrook's entanglement is very tough, and the confrontation between the two is almost at the level of the playoffs!" Barkley's hands are full of sweat. If Yiyang makes a mistake and the Thunder continue to score, then the game may not be suspenseful.
Westbrook did fight hard, but what made him feel exasperated was that the damn basketball seemed to be a part of Yiyang's body. Shuttle flexibly between Yiyang's legs and back, the rhythm of controlling the ball was not disturbed at all.
At this moment, Nowitzki tacitly proposed to pick and roll for Yiyang. Yiyang shook his shoulder, and Westbrook thought he was going to break through to the side with the pick-and-roll.
However, Yiyang's whole body is full of feints. While deceiving Westbrook and Nowitzki into entanglement, Yiyang went to the side without the pick-and-roll. A false cover, Westbrook was fooled!
After getting rid of Westbrook, Yiyang looked up at the time on the rebound timer. There were 10 seconds left before the end of the 24-second offensive clock.
Afterwards, Yiyang quickly scanned the entire half-court, looking for the best point to take the ball.
At this time, Westbrook was chasing wildly behind Yiyang, while Ibaka was pulled beyond the three-point line by Nowitzki. The Thunder team's three-second zone opened, and Yiyang suddenly accelerated and plunged in!
"Protect the rim, protect the rim!" Thunder coach Brooks is well aware of how terrifying Yiyang's finishing ability is at the rim. He loudly reminded everyone on the sidelines that Yiyang must not be allowed to score this crucial goal!
Yiyang entered the penalty area, and three Thunder players surrounded him. Yiyang, who was wrapped with "dumplings", was not in a panic. He stared at the basket, but with a bowling movement, he passed the basketball "randomly" at an extremely fast running speed.
"It's splitting the ball! I plan to split the ball!"
Because Yiyang's pass was very sudden and his movements were very random, no Thunder player could react quickly and reach out to steal.
The basketball passed by Durant, the No. 35 felt cold and turned around suddenly!
Vince Carter, the old flying man who wore the Mavericks' No. 25 jersey, his muscles were no longer obvious, and he had a big beard on his chin, leaped high and his body was straight. When he soared to the highest point, the old guy with a vicissitudes of life pushed the basketball vigorously, pressed his wrist, and moved his fingers.
The basketball flew towards the basket with an extremely high arc, and Carter landed on the ground, his eyes fixed on the basketball, and his hand still maintained the movement of pressing his wrist.
"Carter is dead, he is useless."
"This guy just dunks, nothing special. Now he's old, he can't fly, and he's useless."
"Vince Carter? That guy hasn't retired yet?"
For some reason, these damn voices suddenly sounded in Carter's mind. But at this time, the old flying man had a faint smile on his face.
Thank you for trusting me, boy.
"Swipe!" The basketball is like a sharp saber, piercing the Thunder's heart!
"The ball is in! The ball is in! Yi's wonderful pass, Carter's beautiful shot! The Dallas Mavericks hit a three-pointer! Yi and Carter, two guards, one old and one young, pulled the defending champion back from the cliff! 2 points, With 38 seconds left in the game, the Mavericks narrowed the gap to only two points! Hahahahaha, look, this is the defending champion, and this is the Dallas Mavericks who will never be favored. The game will continue, the game is not over yet!"
Barkley laughed wantonly, this is the Dallas Mavericks game.
