Super Basketball Manager

Chapter 279 What it used to be!Once Mavericks!
When Kevin Durant used a drift buzzer in the last 20-second timeout of the Thunder, the score was pulled from 20 points behind to only 1 point behind. In the last 5 seconds, the whole field led the defense, and then the ball appeared in the hands of Bynum, so the latter was decisively sent to the free throw line. Witnessed by the most distressed fans in Oklahoma, Bynum satiated Kobe's appetite with two threes...

However, Durant's god-like lore is only a small pause away...

The Thunder was finally thrown by Westbrook in despair, and regrettably ended the journey of the season...

Black eight?

does not exist…

But Oklahoma's young guards proved their future promise with the most satisfying series ever...

Two vignettes:
Part/one: Someone: "Finally able to go to the nightclub! Girl with big ass~~~ Tsk tsk..."

Part/two: The day after G6, it was still Toyota Center, Taylor used the most passionate performance to sublimate the original good mood of Aerospace City...

Allegedly, except for the management of the Toyota Center, the Rockets players were nowhere to be seen...

Except for David Anderson and his girlfriend who were in the crowd...

It's no wonder that after the entire series, the first thing that comes to mind is to sleep all day long...

country music?

Maybe when you go to a nightclub, you will find Mayo, Chandler, and even Iverson and others...

...

Since then, all the top four in the Western Conference have been produced-semifinal opponents: Lakers VS Suns, Rockets VS Spurs...

In the first round, unlike the calm East, the first round in the West-no survivors...

That is, none of the matchups were really as expected before the game, and some were even eye-popping...

Take a closer look, the Houston Rockets, which ranked sixth in the Western Conference during the regular season, were able to grab the home court advantage in the playoffs...

That's right, their opponent will be Black 2, a team that is a hundred times more difficult than the Nuggets, and in a sense even more difficult than the Lakers - the San Antonio Spurs...

blacken?

Ron looked bitterly at the pile of compiled statistics and scouting reports about the Mavericks, and shrugged helplessly...

Well, start from scratch...

Starting from the death case of calf...

...

The Mavericks failed to keep the Spurs alive after holding three match points in 2006 and 2009, and now the latter have also proved to their old enemy that this is an irreversible advantage.

The only difference is: this time, Dallas lost more to itself.

For two neighbors who have been at odds for many years, it is nothing for Black Six to be revenged by Black Seven.In detail, after two years, Carlisle's total playoff record against Popo is still slightly ahead of 6 wins and 5 losses.

However, last year the Spurs had Ginobili - the team's best playmaker - absent as an excuse. Now, can Dallas find any disadvantages on its cards as an excuse to be hacked?
"We should have a general manager like Ron...he is cool, he can definitely let us win the championship and get soft..." Some fanatical fans in Dallas wrote to Cuban to propose...

A few days later, when some fans were pleasantly surprised to get Cuban's personal reply (maybe it was still sent in groups), when they were planning to brag, after taking it apart, there was nothing inside, only three small words...

"What about me?" Just three words left people speechless...

Although Mark Cuban refuses to admit that he is naive enough to use NBALIVE as a tool software for trade experiments and lineup evaluation, he said that he plays this thing and often "experiments some imaginative lineup combinations."

So you can imagine how powerful Marion + Butler's flank is in the virtual world, and he can easily win a few championships for his boss.

For many years, Cuban has been obsessed like a devout gamer, adding soldiers and horses to manage the team. Unfortunately, he can’t be like a computer game, and it doesn’t matter.

More than ten years ago, when Ron was playing against LIVE9X online in the national team, a teammate became crazy about the Mavericks, because maybe he realized that he looked almost as angry as the boss, shouting the heroic slogans of "do anything for victory" and "let the money go for honor".

He learned to speak in English and even got a reply.Ron believes that since then, countless fans in the world have fallen in love with this Western Youth Army like him, or fell in love with Mark Cuban's wild dream.

And when he joined Dallas as he wished, it was from those years that the Dallas Mavericks won more than 50 games every year without interruption.

But ten years later, Dallas is still fighting the world with jump shots, so compared with the only other 50-win team in the league in a decade, their disadvantage is so obvious: 0 to 3 for the championship, 4 to 1 for the number of first-round tours.

Special thanks also to the Houston Rockets in 05, otherwise the king of the regular season would have had a 50% first-round kill rate in the past ten years.

It sounds like a student who always ranks at the top of the usual exams, but repeats the college entrance examination for 10 consecutive years, and the decline is endless.

In terms of exact timing, bad luck has been winding up Mark Cuban's team since letting go of a player.

That person is Ron's teammate in the national team.

He loved the Mavericks so much at the beginning, but was ruthlessly abandoned by Cuban in the end... Maybe it was because of him that he lost his character...

What Steve Nash?Is he Chinese?
It must be Wang Zhizhi!
In the summer of 02, Cuban violated the "not bad money" rhetoric and was stingy with the Chinese player, and then the curse of the Chinese began. In the third game of the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs in 03, Dirk died. It was the only serious injury in his career, and the Mavericks were out;

04年凑满BIG5力压湖人F4，结果首轮即1比4被老国王送回家钓鱼；
Then there was Nash in 05, "Dwayne-Stern-Wade" in 06, the old Nelson's broken soul trilogy in 07, Captain Jack, and the bearded dream back to the top;
In 08 and 09, two convulsion teams that suddenly jumped to the second place in the West killed them. Yes, the Hornets and Nuggets in any other season in the past ten years were not enough to beat Dallas, but they just hit the Mavericks at the highest time...

Mark Cuban's team was KO'd by all inexplicable opponents except the Rockets, and the more tossed (Walker, Jamison in 04, Kidd in 08, Marion + Butler + Haywood in 10), the more tragic the embarrassing cycle.

The only thing to be proud of is that they beat the Spurs twice, but this year they were blacked out by their old opponents, which makes this achievement look quite uncomfortable.

Cuban: "I know the Rockets are very strong this year, so I want to keep the record of not being KO by Houston, so I deliberately lost to the Spurs, can't I!"

...

Master Ban, are you just that picky?Would you rather let the Spurs kick ass than let the Rockets make it to the Western Conference Finals?

Cuban bleeds out two lines of tears - "You know!"

　Cuban: "I know the Rockets are very strong this year, so I want to keep the record of not being KO by Houston, so I deliberately lost to the Spurs, can't I!"
