One Guard
Chapter 817: Texas Miracle Scene
"Kevin isn't going to give up yet?" Seeing Durant narrowing the point difference to 3 points in less than five minutes, Yiyang was already ready to make a move.
Fortunately, Carlisle thought of it together with him and hurriedly called a timeout. The purpose of this pause is very simple, not to arrange any tactics. There is no tactic that can completely contain a scorer of Durant's level. The purpose of Carlisle's timeout was to get Yiyang back on the court.
"The final moment of the tie-break, guys. I know we haven't played a tie-break for a long time, but this will not prevent us from advancing. From 1-3 to 3-3, we gave in all our sweat! Today, in In front of all the Dallas fans, we must not let down their expectations and our efforts."
Carlisle is the morale-boosting microphone for the Mavericks, but the actual implementation tasks are all handed over to Yiyang.
Although Durant's offensive just now was very scary, when Yiyang took off his training clothes and came back on the court, all the Mavericks players were instantly confident again.
Even if Yiyang just stands on the court and does nothing, he can improve the Mavericks' combat effectiveness. Team leaders are sometimes like this. They are not only leaders in action, but also spiritual leaders of the players.
"I need a strong connection between the two of you. Only if you connect can we have a chance of winning! It's a tie-break, guys, it's a tie-break! One more loss and we're going to fucking go home! Give it all Let me unite and be strong! We are only three points away, don’t give up, okay!?” Billy Donovan sat in front of the players as if he was begging his father to sue his grandmother. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Durant and There is too little connection between Westbrook and most of the time they work independently.
But after Donovan finished speaking, Durant and Westbrook just looked at each other and said nothing.
Donovan sighed. He knew that the relationship between the two guys had reached a freezing point. It's just that people are used to Durant's taciturn appearance, so there have been no rumors of discord between Durant and Westbrook.
But everyone who has been in the Thunder knows that Durant and Westbrook are actually the biggest problem in the locker room, and the two even compete with each other.
Donovan didn't know what else to say, and the timeout ended. Look at the Mavericks players in the other half high-fiving each other, and then look at the Thunder players, stepping onto the wooden floor with a heavy heart. The mental state of the two teams seems to have predicted the outcome of this game.
Donovan simply sat on the bench and crossed his arms over his chest.
"What? So confident?" Donovan's assistant looked at him in surprise. Now is the time when the players need the coach's supervision from the sidelines.
Donovan shook his head.
no answer. confidence? Donovan felt that there was no chance.
"At the end of the timeout, thanks to Kevin's outstanding performance, the Thunder narrowed the point difference to only three points. But now, they are back on the court. Now for the Thunder, Westbrook's defensive efficiency will Directly determines the fate of the Thunder." Everyone knows that Yiyang will become the Mavericks' first offensive point again, but so what? Even if he knew, few people could stop him.
After returning from the timeout, Yiyang still controlled the ball calmly. He wasn't nervous because of Durant's devastating offensive just now. You could only see confidence on Yiyang's face.
Just after Yiyang passed halftime, Gobert and Dirk each set a double screen for Yiyang. Westbrook is notorious for not guarding pick-and-rolls, and everyone on the Thunder team is ready to cover the defense.
However, when Yiyang took advantage of the cover and rushed out, everyone was surprised to find that this guy didn't pass the ball at all! Where's the ball!
Dirk Nowitzki turned around and shot a three-pointer directly, using a secret hand-to-hand pass. The cooperation between Yiyang and Dirk made all defensive players misunderstand.
Dirk's three-pointer was almost uninterrupted because Yiyang drew all the defense for him. The basketball went hollow into the net, but Dirk was still a treasure trove. In the playoffs this season, he still averaged 20.4 points per game. It is a common practice for almost everyone that veterans perform better in the playoffs than in the regular season.
"After Yi came back, the Mavericks' offense immediately became extremely smooth, and the effect was immediate!" Mike Breen had to admire him. With or without Yi Yang, the changes in the Mavericks were obvious.
"It stands to reason that Deron Williams' organizational ability is not weak. Why does this happen?" Kevin Harlan spread his hands. Is Yiyang so magical?
"The reason is very simple, Kevin. Deron's personal threat is not as good as Yi's, so his ability to attract defenses is not that strong. As long as Yi moves, the entire Thunder team's defense will move. In this way, there will be many gaps for others. !”
Seeing Yiyang let the Mavericks get three points without any effort, Durant was a little envious.
What did the Mavericks do a few years after losing to the Thunder? ? They introduced Iguodala, Tony Allen, Vince Carter, Deron, Barea, Wade, Shelvin Mack... These guys are all the backbone of the league who can play a role in tough battles. strength! Without these guys, Yiyang would not have been able to create a myth.
And what about the Thunder? Durant has never seen a championship team's lineup getting younger and younger. Now the team's three main strengths, themselves, Westbrook and Ibaka, were all obtained through the draft. The Thunder have never made any moves in the transfer market and free agent market. Durant has long been disappointed with the inaction of the Thunder management. Only this time it was reversed 1-3, which completely caused this feeling of disappointment.
After the next ball, Westbrook still went his own way. After he rushes into the paint, you don't have to worry about what fake moves he will make, because this number zero will definitely attack the frame directly.
Under Gobert's interference, Westbrook's reluctant layup was a no-brainer. Since Yiyang's return, Westbrook's shooting percentage has never been higher.
Durant would no longer complain about this. He rushed to the basket himself and took advantage of his height and wingspan to grab the offensive rebound before Dirk!
Durant didn't hesitate and got up directly from the basket! Dirk's interference had no effect on this super scorer, the basketball went hollow into the net, Durant made a layup, and there was an extra penalty!
"Kevin Durant! This is an opportunity he worked hard with his enthusiasm! So tough, we can see how eager he is to advance to the Western Conference Finals! Kevin has waited long enough for the championship!"
After Durant caused the foul, he just clenched his fist lightly, and then walked to the free throw line, preparing to shoot the free throw!
During this period, he did not high-five any of his teammates. For Durant, this has become a personal war with the Mavericks, not a war between the Thunder and the Mavericks.
Although the Mavericks fans shouted to interfere with the free throw, Durant still cold-bloodedly made the ball. The three-pointer was successful and the gap was once again stabilized at three points.
"It doesn't matter, let's be steady and take our time, don't rush!" However, Yiyang's simple words stabilized the mood of all his teammates.
Every word Yiyang said on the Mavericks was beyond doubt.
Westbrook was furious at this point, which may be his biggest fault. The more critical the moment, the more anxious Westbrook becomes.
If he used his strong body to block steadily, Yiyang's offense might be very difficult. But all this guy can think about is how to steal and how to dunk in one go. Against ordinary point guards, Westbrook's steals may catch people off guard. But facing Yiyang, trying to steal the basketball from his hand is as difficult as trying to pull out his heart from the air.
Yiyang changed hands on his crotch, as if he knew Westbrook's intention in advance, and skillfully avoided the thick arm stretched out. Afterwards, Yiyang directly held the ball and accelerated, surpassing Westbrook by half a body.
Westbrook immediately turned around and chased after him, but after exerting all his energy, he just took a step forward. Yiyang retreated skillfully and returned to the three-point line.
The "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" forcibly changed their center of gravity and rushed towards him. Fortunately, his physical fitness was so strong that he managed to stabilize his body and was not knocked down. On this point, Parker of the Spurs has the most say. After all, he had been knocked down twice by Yiyang's retreat, and Parker hated this move extremely.
Although he was not knocked down, Westbrook still couldn't block it in time. Who would have thought that Yiyang, who was unguarded outside the three-point line when he first entered the league, now has a killer trick of retreating for three-pointers.
When Durant saw Yiyang take action, his heart had already gone cold. Sure enough, the basketball was so accurate that it didn't even touch the rim and rolled up a "white wave".
"Another three-pointer! The showdown between Yi and Kevin was really exciting!"
"Serge, ball!" After Yiyang scored, Durant and Westbrook opened their palms at the same time and shouted at Ibaka, who was about to serve a baseline kick.
Ibaka was confused. He didn't know who he should listen to. Durant gritted his teeth and ran away, handing possession of the ball to Westbrook again.
This is his character, his willingness to sacrifice and be humble. It is precisely because of this that he has been able to get along with Westbrook for so many years.
Westbrook continued to advance with the ball without shame. In his opinion, everyone should serve him as a matter of course. But this time he passed the ball, just past the midfield line, to Durant.
Durant faced Iguodala and made several triple threat moves, but Iguodala remained unmoved. Seeing this, Durant handed the ball to Westbrook again, preparing to run out of space and ask for the ball again.
However, Durant obviously thought too much. As a point guard, Westbrook almost only passes this one pass. You can't fight this time, Westbrook will do it by himself.
Durant used an off-ball screen to get rid of Iguodala and asked for the ball outside the three-point line. At this time, Iguodala was three or four steps away from Durant. As long as the ball arrived, there would be a big gap!
However, Durant watched helplessly as Westbrook ignored himself in the open space, forced a layup despite Yiyang's strong interference, and was then slapped away by Gobert like a volleyball.
This risk not only blocked Westbrook's shot, but also broke Durant's heart.
Fuck you Westbrook! I really can’t stand it! Leave Oklahoma, leave this hopeless team! This voice echoed in Durant's head, and it has never been stronger!
Wade picked up the basketball that was kicked out by Gobert and ran quickly with his knees riddled with holes. Westbrook is chasing after him, hoping to make up for it.
However, Wade was not stupid. After he reached the basket, he gently threw the basketball back. Without looking back, he opened his arms directly to celebrate the goal. Yiyang did not disappoint Wade. He caught the basketball in the air, and then slammed the ball into the frame with Westbrook's surprised eyes!
Continuing with the picture of Wade passing an alley-oop to James to celebrate in advance, the "Flash" also left his own classic moment in Dallas.
"Dwyane Wade, he is definitely one of the most charming players in the league!"
Watching Yiyang dunk the basketball into the basket, watching Wade laughing and high-fiving Yiyang, Durant suddenly stopped running.
Envy, Durant sees all this and is extremely envious! He has no energy, and he has no spirit. How could such a united team be defeated! ?
In the next five minutes, Durant did not perform any more brilliantly. He gave the game to Westbrook and allowed his "good brother" to play freely.
When Westbrook went crazy in the last minute and Yiyang sent two fatal jumpers in a row, it was all over.
"Reversal from 1 to 3, the Dallas Mavericks and Yi completed another feat! The Oklahoma City Thunder were suddenly eliminated by Yi in a good situation!"
The moment the electronic buzzer sounded, all the fans in the American Airlines Center jumped to their feet. Their cheers, following the night breeze, crossed the shores of Baiyan Lake and spread to every corner of the world where there is basketball!
Durant looked at Yiyang, who was surrounded by his teammates, and lowered his head. He didn't comfort Westbrook or talk to anyone else. Alone, the tall and thin man No. 35 walked into the tunnel with his hands on his hips, looking so lonely and helpless.
When Yiyang turned around, he accidentally saw the tall figure. Although the season is not over yet, Yiyang can already foresee the super storm in the summer transfer market.
But soon, Durant's back was "overwhelmed" by the smiling faces of his teammates.
Yiyang didn't think so much and fell into the carnival. Dallas, Texas, has once again become a place where miracles happen. (https:)
