One Guard

Chapter 534: The gloomy monster

The second half of the game between the two sides completely turned into a standout performance for the Mavericks. Before the game started, the Eagles originally aimed to win on the road, but now they just hope they don't lose too badly.

However, as time goes by, the Eagles seem to be almost unable to stick to the bottom line of "don't lose too badly". Yiyang made consecutive shots on the offensive end, tearing holes in the Eagles' defense. On the contrary, it was the Hawks. Their offense made the staff at the American Airlines Center worry about whether the basket would be smashed crooked.

"In this opening game, the strength of the Mavericks was fully demonstrated. They used defense to drive offense and offense to assist defense. The offense and defense complemented each other and were closely connected. The result of this was that with 5 minutes left before the end of the game, Now, the Dallas Mavericks are 28 points ahead of the Hawks! What is the concept of 28 points!? This is equivalent to a team not scoring for an entire quarter and allowing the opponent to score for the entire quarter. This shows how good the Mavericks' defense is Terrible."

"The Mavericks' excellent defense is expected. In fact, the person who gave us the biggest surprise today is not Iguodala, not Tony Allen, or the one who has already scored 28 points, 12 assists and 5 rebounds. "The X factor of today's game is the 27th overall pick selected by the Mavericks this summer, French center Rudy Gobert." Others are praising the Mavericks, but Mike Breen believes that it is necessary to replace Gobert. This guy Bell was singled out and praised for a few words.

"Before the start of this game, everyone thought that Gobert would only get a chance to play in garbage time. But in fact, when the game was getting anxious, he interrupted the great momentum of the Eagles' interior offense. Although Gobert only got a chance to play in garbage time today. With 6 points scored, it seemed that he had no other scoring methods except dunks. But the data of 8 rebounds and 4 blocks made this rookie center become the anchor of the Mavericks penalty area! Al Horford, as a The center made only 5 of 12 shots in this game. Among the 5 goals scored, 3 were scored by Dalembert. In other words, after Rudy Gobert, a European rookie, entered the NBA In the first game, he was able to defend an All-Star center at a loss!" Mike Breen looked at Gobert's data today, and then looked at the figure who was still running on the court.

There are too many examples of lanky inside players failing in the league, which is why Gobert is not favored by other teams. But just like Yiyang was selected in 2010, this year, Cuban was lucky enough to make the right bet.

While talking, the game has entered the last minute, and the head coaches of both sides have replaced all the main players. It's just that one is proud of the spring breeze and the other is sad.

Budenholzer looked at the big screen. The huge score difference made him feel ashamed all the time. Now this guy in a suit just wants to hide in the locker room and disappear from people's sight.

When Nick Young scored his 12th point of the game with a defensive shot, the point difference between the two teams officially exceeded the 30 mark.

The 30-point difference has become the largest point difference recorded so far this season.

Now, every second is an ordeal for Budenholzer and his players. Not only do they have to accept the devastation of their opponents, they also have to withstand the pressure from the outside world. What else could Budenholzer do besides complain?

If the Hawks' opponent in today's opening game was the 76ers or Bucks, there would be no need for them to suffer such humiliation. It can only be said that God made a joke with the Eagles in the first game of the new season that made people laugh.

"Beep!!!!!!"

After 48 minutes of suffering, Budenholzer finally waited for the electronic buzzer that signaled the end of the game.

The stands at the American Airlines Center Arena were filled with jubilation. The result of this game did not make their half-year wait in vain. Cuban and Nelson clinked glasses in the luxury box. Facts have proved that with the intervention of Carlisle and Yiyang, the team's recruitment work has indeed been completed better. On the basketball court, Mavericks players hugged and high-fived each other. This is their first game together, this is their first win together. But everyone knows that the blue storm set off by these guys has just landed in the alliance. His destruction will continue to deepen.

Whether it’s Los Angeles or San Antonio on the West Coast, Miami or Chicago on the East Coast, all these cities must be prepared to withstand blue typhoons. Otherwise, this storm is likely to uproot those cities!

"110 to 80, the Dallas Mavericks played an incredible result at home. In the fourth quarter, they only allowed the Hawks to score 80 points, but they scored over 100 points. You know, since the fourth quarter of the game, the main players of the Mavericks have They didn't play much. If Coach Carlisle insists on using the team's strongest firepower, God knows whether the point difference will develop towards 40 points or even 50 points!" A hearty victory made Barkley's mood Extremely enjoyable.

O'Neal, who was next to Barkley, shook his head silently. This game was enough for Barkley to brag about for more than half a year. O'Neal can already imagine how his ears will tingle when Barkley mentions this game.

However, it was an incredible victory. The Dallas Mavericks did not sign the biggest players this summer, but they have assembled the most threatening team.

Do you have to have a team of superstars to win the championship? The Dallas Mavericks have officially launched an attack on this shortcut that the entire league is following!

After the game, Budenholzer was not surrounded by reporters and forced to answer awkward questions, as he had imagined.

The fact is that as soon as the game ended, all the reporters rushed towards the Mavericks' half, and he and his players were ignored at all. Yes, a team that was easily defeated by its opponents, what's so worth interviewing about?

Budenholzer was also happy to be free. Taking advantage of the fact that no reporters came to cause trouble, he hurriedly greeted the players and walked into the tunnel. In an instant, the entire stadium became a carnival venue for the Mavericks.

On the court, nearly every Mavericks player was surrounded by reporters. People could imagine that the Mavericks could win from the beginning, but they never imagined that the Mavericks would win in such an exaggerated way. When the results of a game exceed reporters' expectations, reporters will frantically absorb any information that is useful to them.

"Also, how do you evaluate Iguodala's performance?"

"What do you want to say about Rudy's four blocks?"

"From enemy to teammate, can you tell us about your relationship with Tony Allen!?"

The reporters rushed to put the microphone to Yiyang's mouth one by one. Yiyang wanted to answer, but every time he wanted to answer the other party, the reporter who just asked the question was pushed to the outside of the crowd.

The stadium was very chaotic, and some reporters who were not qualified to enter the stadium also squeezed in like fish in troubled waters. It was not until stadium security personnel intervened that the chaotic scene was finally brought under control.

"Hahahaha, I can't believe that the Dallas Mavericks dropped a bombshell as soon as they came into their rookie season." On the commentary table, Mike Breen, who had already compiled the information and was about to leave, looked at the chaotic scene below and laughed. He shook his head.

"This is just the beginning, Mike. I have a hunch that the Mavericks can do more than that this season." Brin's partner Kevin Harlan withdrew his gaze. The poor Eagles were just an appetizer for the Cowboys.

"Come on Mike, we have to rush to Brooklyn tomorrow to commentate on the game."

"Speaking of Brooklyn... do you think the Heat can also have a 30-point lead over the Nets tomorrow?"

"Believe me, if Kevin Garnett hears what you just said, he will definitely knock your front teeth out."

"Hahahahaha."......

The two commentators laughed. Yes, this season, every game seems to be full of highlights. The defending champion Heat, the regrouping Spurs, the Nets with a team of giants, the Rockets with the "Magic" combination, the Clippers who welcome their coach, the talented Warriors... This season is destined to be extremely exciting. Of course, whether the Dallas Mavericks can break the dominance of the great powers is the highlight of this season! If you want to survive in the Western Conference, winning a mere game is not enough.

"Dwight Howard picked up the offensive rebound. God, this is already his 26th rebound today! This inside monster ate up all the rebounds today! He directly launched a long pass to James Harden He has already started running towards the opponent’s half!”

Chris Webber's commentary was very fast because the offensive and defensive rhythm of the two teams on the field was also very fast at this time.

After receiving a long pass from Howard, Harden went straight into the Bobcats penalty area. At this time, only Gerald Henderson was in front of Harden.

If it were another defender, they would definitely choose to attack the basket first on this shot. But Harden is different. This guy's first reaction after getting a fast break opportunity is to lean on others!

As a result, Henderson was "lucky" to experience the most realistic "porcelain collision" scene. I saw Harden rushing towards Henderson with the ball. As soon as Henderson opened his hand, Harden took the initiative to bump into him. This time, Henderson himself was called for a defensive foul.

"I obviously didn't do anything!" An angry Henderson opened his arms and complained to the referee, but the referee ignored him at all.

"A dispensable player like you will not be favored by the referee." Just as Henderson was thrown away by the referee, these words popped into Henderson's ears without warning.

Henderson turned his head angrily, it was Dwight Howard!

"This has nothing to do with you, Dwight." Henderson responded angrily. He didn't want anything to do with Howard.

"Indeed, if you had anything to do with me, you might have to lose one tooth now."

Henderson suppressed the anger in his heart and did not continue to entangle with Howard. This was not the first time Howard talked trash today, and Henderson pretended not to hear it.

In the end, Harden made two free throws at the free throw line, widening the game point difference to 12 points. At this point, Rockets coach and former Celtics star "Refrigerator" McHale replaced all the main players with a wave of his hand. In the first win of the season, Harden scored 21 points and 5 assists, and Howard had 18 points and 26 rebounds. The Rockets' performance gave all Houston fans hope. Maybe this time, the championship can really land in Houston!

After the game, Howard looked very leisurely, and he scored a super double-double of 18+26 without much effort.

A reporter walked up to Howard and held out his microphone. Howard no longer had the iconic sunny smile he had during his Magic days. The super center stared at the reporter seriously, as if to remind the other party not to waste their time.

"Just a question, Dwight. The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Hawks by 30 points at home today, and your next opponent is the Dallas Mavericks! Facing such a strong opponent, what do you want to say? ?"

As soon as the words "Dallas Mavericks" were mentioned, Howard felt angry. This summer he went to Dallas with full expectations and sincerity, but Cuban told him: "We already have a candidate for a center player. If you can accept a salary cut, then I will draft a contract immediately."

As the league's No. 1 center, Howard enthusiastically went to Dallas to take over the boss position, but in the end he was "returned" by the other party. This sense of humiliation stuck in Howard's mind. What's more, the "center candidate" in Cuban's mouth is actually just a 27th overall pick. In other words, Cuban thinks that his No. 1 pick is about the same as a 27th overall pick!

Thinking of this, Howard gritted his teeth. This season, he wants to avenge his shame and vent all the bad emotions in Los Angeles! The Dallas Mavericks are undoubtedly a very good target to vent to!

"Just wait and see, we will tear the Dallas Mavericks to pieces." Howard pointed at the camera and said harsh words. The season has just begun, but the smell of gunpowder is already getting stronger...
