Chapter 1065 Yes, you are a good person!(1/2)
Last year, Dallas Mavericks fans bid farewell to the team at their home court. The Dallas Mavericks were eliminated at home in the Western Conference semifinals of last year's playoffs with a score of 3 to 4.
And now, in the American Airlines Center in Dallas, the Dallas Mavericks fans are really melancholy.
Because they will bid farewell to their beloved home team at their home court again.
Before the fourth game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Dallas Mavericks even started, Mavericks fans actually had a very strong premonition.
This series will be swept by the Seattle SuperSonics.
In fact, they are not the only ones who have this hunch. Everyone in the world who pays attention to the NBA playoffs has this hunch.
Every game was beaten by the Seattle SuperSonics by more than 20 points.
Throughout the game, except for Nowitzki, who was able to step up and save the life of the Dallas Mavericks at certain times, the Dallas Mavericks really had nothing to fight back against the Seattle SuperSonics.
More importantly, everyone can see that the Dallas Mavericks are trying their best, but the Seattle SuperSonics are not.
The Seattle SuperSonics have not yet tried their best to exploit Nowitzki's weakness.
But even so, the Seattle SuperSonics are leading the Mavericks 3-0. Who can believe that the Mavericks can turn everything around in the next four games?
In the third game, after the Dallas Mavericks lost the first home game of this series, the Dallas Mavericks' always very wise and calm head coach Rick Carlisle panicked.
"I don't know why we lost again. I really don't know. I feel like I can't do anything in this series. I made many, many plans before the start of this series, but those plans didn't work.
Any way it can be used, yes and the Seattle SuperSonics' behavior in the game made it impossible for us to focus on it. Now, I don't know how we can continue to maintain the suspense of this series in the next game."
"No, there has never been any suspense in this series..."
Listen to these words from Carlyle.
Still can’t feel the panic?
Although falling behind 3-0, it was basically too late to recover.
But the Leafs have never lost a series when trailing 0-3, and they completed a 4-3 comeback from 0-3 twice.
Logically speaking, NBA teams should not be so helpless and desperate when facing a 0-3 deficit.
You can't have even a hint of courage to reverse it.
Pearl and jade are in front.
However, this series of the Mavericks has made the Mavericks desperate.
In the first three games, they really seemed to have exhausted all their energy.
In the first game, Marion faced Jaycee and couldn't make any shots. After that, Marion's offensive state never got better, as if he was cursed.
In the second game, after Afflalo was beaten by Rondo, the arrogant and arrogant second-in-command of the Mavericks also suffered a huge blow.
In the third game, I returned to my home court and finally plucked up the courage again, but faced the zone defense of Nelson and the Sonics.
Amidst the clanging iron, they actually had no idea what to do.
You know, who dares to use zone defense against them in the regular season this season?
Aren't you afraid of being shot to death by random arrows?
But in this game, the Mavericks, who were extremely capable of zone defense, were actually defeated by the zone defense.
After this game in which the Mavericks were killed by the zone defense, everyone knew that the Dallas Mavericks collapsed and lost all their energy.
And with such a Mavericks, how can people expect that they can launch the final impact horn at their home court?
However, when the first quarter of the game started, Nowitzki started with a strong attack in an attempt to bring confidence to Dallas and the courage to defeat the SuperSonics, which still brought a ray of sunshine to the gloomy sky in Dallas.
"When a team is at its most desperate, it doesn't matter what tactics or style of play it is. What matters is whether your team has a player who is strong enough to change everything and reverse everything!"
"Nowitzki is trying to do something like this, and he also has such strength. Milicic, Millsap, Ibaka, Marc Gasol, none of them can stop him."
"It's a pity that the Seattle SuperSonics also have a player like this!"
In the first quarter of the game, Nowitzki started to work hard.
There is no way, he needs to change the team's decline, otherwise, his physical protection will be of little use in the end.
However, Nowitzki was desperate when he saw that the points he had earned through hard work could only defeat the Seattle SuperSonics' offense.
Because even though he attacked strongly from the beginning, yes still did not organize his teammates to attack his defensive vulnerability on the offensive end.
In other words, what the SuperSonics were most afraid of last season, his strong attack, is now completely ignored by the Seattle SuperSonics.
He can attack whatever he wants, and his strong attack won't even change the SuperSonics' tactics.
Yes, the defensive players of the Seattle SuperSonics are still very weak in front of him, but compared with last season, this season, his offense no longer has the ability to change the opponent's tactics when facing the SuperSonics.
!
This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Nowitzki.
He has now very clearly felt how powerful the Seattle SuperSonics control the game.
The Seattle SuperSonics' control over the game is Yes's control over the game!
Yes's hand seemed to completely cover him and his Dallas Mavericks, which was quite despairing.
In the first quarter of the game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Dallas Mavericks, Nowitzki relied on his strong attack to barely extend the life of the Dallas Mavericks for one quarter.
34 to 30.
The first quarter of this game was actually the first quarter with the smallest point difference among the four games between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Mavericks.
However, such a minimal point difference still did not make the desperate Mavericks fans feel the coming of hope.
In fact, there is really no hope and no miracle.
In the rotation time contest between the Dallas Mavericks and the Seattle SuperSonics, the Mavericks were completely defeated once again.
James Harden, Matthews, Danny Green, Ibaka, Gasol...
The rotation of the Seattle SuperSonics in this series has even made Mavericks fans despair.
When seeing these five people, even some Mavericks fans were more desperate than when they saw Yees, Rondo, Durant, Millsap and Milicic.
The defense of this rotation of the Seattle SuperSonics is so strong!
Not only was the defense a powerful explosion, but the offense was also very powerful. It simply suppressed Barea, Terry and Monta Alice, who the Dallas Mavericks have always been proud of!
After the crazy three-shot shooting of the Dallas Mavericks in the regular season, almost everyone else failed in this series except for Barea!
Even if Barea didn't misfire, it definitely wasn't as fierce as it was in the regular season.
Therefore, Nowitzki's crazy output in the first quarter saved the team's life.
However, in the second quarter, the starting players from both sides came up one after another, and the score between the two sides was once again stretched to ten points.
You know, except for Nowitzki, who rested for six full minutes in the second quarter, the other Mavericks players did not rest for that long. They were already coming in after two or three minutes of rest.
In other words, during the rotation phase of this game, there was a period of time when the main players of the Dallas Mavericks played against the substitutes of the SuperSonics.
But even if the main force plays as a substitute, the main force without Nowitzki seems to be unable to beat the five substitute lineups of the SuperSonics...
That's right, at the last minute of the rotation, the players on the Mavericks field were Kidd, Barea, Afflalo, Marion, and Kwame Brown. They actually didn't beat Harden, Matthews, and Dan.
A lineup of Negrin, Ibaka and Gasol...
This made the already desperate Mavericks fans really desperate to the extreme.
Mark Cuban, the number one Mavericks fan on the sidelines, saw the SuperSonics replacing their rotation players with dull expressions when they saw the five SuperSonics rotation players coming off the court. He likes to roar and jump. At this moment, except for opening his mouth,
My eyes widened, unable to do anything.
"Danny, Wesley, congratulations, you have become famous in this series!"
Ty Lawson and Ingles, who greeted Danny Green and Wesley Matthews on the bench, looked at them with envy.
Judging from the performance of these two people in this series, they can guarantee that they will have a stable job in the NBA.
And Danny Green and Matthews themselves were very excited.
Take root in NBA!
This is the lifelong dream of many basketball players!
Not to mention low-post rookies and undrafted rookies like them.
Even those high-ranking rookies dare not say that they can all take root in the NBA.
Most NBA players, including those high-level rookies, are basically rookies who spend four years in the NBA and then disappear.
And they have now achieved what even high-ranking rookies long for so quickly!
"Sure enough, as long as you can come to Seattle, it is more valuable than entering the NBA with lottery status!"
Danny Green and Matthews looked at each other and nodded silently.
Even if they enter the NBA as lottery picks and go to other teams, they will not perform well enough to take root in the NBA in their first season.
It's possible that they are just like other players who just took a few more years of salary in the NBA and then disappeared from the NBA after taking the salary.
Where is the scenery like now!
Matthews and Danny Green, who sat back in their seats, looked at the SuperSonics No. 9 on the court. The admiration and respect in their eyes could not be hidden at all.
To be continued...
