One Guard

Dirk was doing shooting exercises under interference with the trainer on the training ground as always. The trainer had to hold a long pole with both hands, and a big padded hand was made on the long pole, so as to put pressure on Dirk to interfere. Otherwise, the German's nearly three-meter-high shooting point is not something you can interfere with if you want.

Under the interference of the trainer, Dirk scored ten goals in a row. When the tenth ball sailed through the net, Dirk hammered his chest and let out a roar. His voice filled the entire training hall.

"Dirk seems to be very excited." Armstrong looked at Dirk's perfect condition and smiled happily.

"Even though Dirk is almost 40 years old, his desire for victory and championships is no less or less. This guy just doesn't care about data, so he gives people a tepid feeling, just like Iguodala ." Carlisle said, looking at Iguodala again. These guys under him are all weirdos.

Two weirdos who are obviously very powerful, but think about how to help others every day. A guard who has been in the NBA for five years and won championships and MVPs, but still has an indescribable desire to win. Of course, there is also the center who is obsessed with defense and always wants to kill others in the penalty area.

"This time, that guy Draymond Green has provoked the wrong person." Carlisle whistled, and it was time to start confrontation training to simulate actual combat.

The Mavericks are very busy here, and outside, the discussion about the two teams is also very lively.

Earlier today, the NBA officially announced this season's All-Defensive Team. As soon as this list came out, the game between the Warriors and the Mavericks became a little more interesting.

In the best defensive second team, Bogut and Gobert occupy two interior positions. The list of the best defensive team is even more intriguing. Except for Leonard and DeAndre Jordan, the other three are all closely related.

The names of Yiyang, Tony Allen and Draymond Green are listed at the same time. A total of five people from both teams were selected to the All-Defensive Team. People seem to be able to predict how intense the next series will be!

"Many people think that the Warriors' success relies only on three-pointers, but in fact, their defense is also very good. The selection of Green and Bogut just illustrates this point!"

"The Dallas Mavericks have a total of three people selected to the All-Defensive Team, and two of them were selected to the First Team, which does not surprise me at all. Tony Allen has proven that he has the ability to block any superstar, and he is also No. 1 The defensive ability at the position is also unmatched. As for Rudy Gobert, to be honest, I don't think his defense is much worse than Jordan, who was selected to the first team. Maybe Jordan's big body is more attractive? "

In one series, five players who were selected to the All-Defensive Team were at each other's throats. Coupled with the two super scorers Curry and Yiyang... Before the series even started, people could already imagine the intensity of the game.

The announcement of the best lineup left a lot of material for the Western Conference Finals preview program. Van Gundy Jr., former Warriors coach Mark Jackson and Barkley used their own understanding of basketball to try to analyze the trend of the Western Conference Finals.

"This season, Cole led the Warriors to an offensive efficiency of 109.6 points. They were only 0.1 points less than the Mavericks and ranked second. At the same time, they averaged 10.8 three-pointers per game and their three-point shooting percentage was as high as 39.8. %, ranking first in the league. Because of this, they can play top offensive efficiency with a turnover rate of 14.4%. I have to admit that the Warriors led by me last season were unable to play such an efficient offense. But this year, with The Warriors, who have the league's top offensive capabilities, will very likely break through the Mavericks' incredible defense!" Mark Jackson doesn't say this just because he has coached the Warriors. His arguments are supported by data, which is very impressive.

This is also true. The Warriors were able to tie with the Mavericks during the regular season.

This proves their ability to break defenses.

"The opponent the Warriors are about to face is the league's best defensive team, playing the league's best defense and blasting the league's most efficient offense. Insider Gobert has been selected to the All-Defensive Second Team, and wing Iguodala+ Tony Allen is enough to give the Warriors' outside perimeter a good drink. Don't forget, there were also two games where Curry's three-point shooting percentage became terrible! The Mavericks have a balanced defense inside and outside. I think I'm afraid it's not that easy to break their defense. Regular season? The regular season and the Western Conference Finals are completely different and have no reference value. The Warriors can win in the regular season, but they may not win in the playoffs. "Barkley is still optimistic about the Mavericks, and it turns out that he didn't say good things about the Mavericks just to attack O'Neal. It's the performance of the Mavericks over the years that really impressed this guy who thinks so highly of himself.

"In terms of interior defense, Gobert will face a test this round. Bogut and Green are not traditional interiors. They like to pull up to the high post to cover and pass the ball. Should we let Bogut and Green do whatever they want in the high post? Or should we let Bogut and Green do whatever they want in the high post? Posting on defense, Gobert needs to make a choice! But we all know that when Gobert is out of the three-second zone, it is as if he cannot play." It seemed that Mark Jackson did not want to avoid Barkley, and his tone was very sharp!

"On the defensive end, the Warriors are also facing a lot of trouble! The first is how to defend Curry from Yi's attack, and wait until he misses the open shot? Curry is not good at defense. This is something everyone knows. And the Mavericks' The strong point is exactly at the No. 1 position! In addition, Carlisle can let Tony and Wade switch positions at any time. In this way, Clay will be somewhat restricted. The Warriors are not invincible, they also have many loopholes!" Barkley Tit for tat, he seemed to have found another opponent besides O'Neal.

"Okay, okay, gentlemen." Little Van Gundy couldn't stand it anymore. Barkley was just a troublemaker. No matter who he partnered with on the show, he could stir up a mess.

"The Warriors have the strengths of the Warriors, and the Mavericks also have the strengths of the Mavericks. It is no exaggeration to say that these two teams are currently the two strongest teams in the league. Because of this, the results of the games between the two sides are difficult to predict. . Even if you argue all night today, there will be no results. The two teams are of similar strength. Apart from a real fight, we have no way to know the result. You have nothing to say. Yes, both sides have points where they can restrain the other, and there are also points where they can easily be targeted by the other side. That is why this game is so anticipated. Tomorrow night is a night not to be missed for all basketball fans!"

Van Gundy Jr. ended the argument between the two and the entire preview program. The result is still the same as ESPN's, and it's also impossible to say who will be the final winner.

The outcome of the game seems to be in the hands of the Warriors and Mavericks players themselves.

※※※

On May 20th, in the East, the Hawks and Cavaliers had just finished their battle and met in the conference finals. But in the West, the two super strong teams have already defeated all their previous opponents, and they can't wait to take the lead in showing off their talents!

Since the beginning of the regular season, fans have been looking forward to the showdown between the Warriors and Mavericks in the playoffs. Sure enough, the two teams lived up to expectations and met in the Western Conference Finals.

People say whoever wins the Western Conference Finals has actually won the O'Brien Trophy. Yiyang somewhat disagreed with this statement. He knows very well who James is, and that kind of guy is not easy to defeat. Even if the Mavericks swept the Heat 4-0 last season, the process was much more difficult than the superficial score of 4-0.

Putting aside James for the moment, the Golden State Warriors are indeed a very difficult and powerful enemy. The game against the Warriors may really be more difficult than playing in the finals!

Before the game started, the tense atmosphere in the Mavericks locker room was unprecedented in the playoffs. They swept the Warriors in the first round last season, and the Warriors must be eager for revenge. Invisibly, this increases the Warriors' combat effectiveness.

"Dirk."

Hearing someone calling him, Nowitzki raised his head slightly.

"Is it no problem?" Yiyang asked.

Dirk smiled. He was the one who asked Yiyang like this five years ago. Five years later, it was Yiyang's turn to ask herself.

Just before the game started, Draymond Green still spoke out in an interview with reporters.

"What do you think of Dirk? I respect him. He is one of the best forwards in the NBA. But this game is not something that an old guy like him can play. I will try my best to deal with him and hope he does well. Prepared."

After Green's remarks reached Dirk's ears, the Germans have been very serious and unsmiling.

The Golden State Warriors, this is Nowitzki's lifelong nightmare. God knows, without the Warriors, the Mavericks would have won the O'Brien Trophy in 2007. But at the same time, without the Warriors, Dirk's transformation may not have happened.

Even though the Mavericks swept the Warriors last season, this Warriors team is completely different from before. But there is no doubt that the Warriors are still the most special opponent for Dirk.

"What questions can I have?" Dirk said, standing up. In an instant, Yiyang had to look up at him.

The German moved his arms and twisted his waist. This game isn't for me anymore? No, Draymond Green, you have no idea how the game of the Western Conference Finals is played!

"Let's go, this is our home court, there is no reason to let those bastards run wild here! We are number one in the Western Conference!" Dirk shouted, opened the door to the locker room, and filed out with his teammates.

Dirk has never been like this since Yiyang took over the team. It seems that he is really energetic today.

"Someone is going to be unlucky." Watching the players yelling and leaving the locker room, Armstrong had a smirk on his face.

"I guess this person is not Dirk." Carlisle followed at the end, determined to win!
