Super Basketball Manager

Chapter 280 The NBA's Three Illusions!

"In your opinion, the Mavericks or the Spurs, who is more difficult to deal with?"

"...Since it has been confirmed that it is the Spurs, I don't want to express too much..." Ron said a little unhappy...

Depend on!Why play the Spurs!

Can't the Mavericks live up to their expectations?
...

As we all know, there are three major illusions in the NBA-the Rockets are strong, the Mavericks are weak, and the Spurs are old.

But this season has turned people upside down...

Compared with the old and hot Spurs, regardless of his ranking, the Rockets are still willing to touch this Mavericks who were messed up by Cuban...

Because the Spurs have the four kings of the basketball court: flexible and fat (still lying in the Bobcats' Dior!), short rebounder (DeJuan - Brian lying in the gun!), hook old man (the No. 21 rookie is on the way!), tall and thin long-distance shooting king (Richard Jefferson and Manu are lying on each other).

Because of the four idiots in the Mavericks basketball court: the guy who pretends to show off his shoes (I am Anta Kidd!), the big rookie (Jets blacksmith Terry!), the suspended shoelace master (Super Barea!), the phone (trash talk) and the constant brother (Mark Cuban sits and lies).

So Houston can only respond with the "Four Big Killers of the Basketball Court": "Give me the ball and I want to go home", "Girls watch and beat chicken blood", "Men show off their skills and walk alone", "**** sweats and body odor"...

Countless people laying guns...

...

Apparently Cuban was sorry for Ron, who was obsessed with E in his heart. T.Fan and the wild tune of the small musketeers of the Jets, they also showed off before the start of the season: "Our big progress this year is that we have a super fast backcourt group. You will see a few small guards driving the game with lightning speed."

After he fooled Ron in G4, he began to study the Mavericks' style of play and restraint methods. As a result...

It is undeniable that Jason Terry's outside play style constitutes part of the Mavericks' cowboy temperament. The jet-style resolute shooting looks really cool on many nights. Even the old Kidd fell in love with the three-pointer and bravely joined the outside artillery. However, this style of play has been proved countless times that it is not suitable for the playoffs.

When Dallas was hacked seven and was eliminated in the first round for the fourth time in ten years, the voice of "Novi softball" was not as raging as it was in 2007.On the contrary, most of the American media set the theme of the chant: Dirk is still lonely.He averaged 26 points per game, shot 7% from the field, 54% from the three-point line, and 7% from the free throw line... For a player who is about to turn 57, can he ask for more?The eternally young Dirk, the immortal Kidd, but-Dallas in the playoffs will always be scattered!It makes you wonder if there is a natural flaw in the core structure of this team.

There is no doubt that Kidd is one of the most selfless and overall-minded players in the NBA, but does Nowitzki really need him?He's not one of those bouncing guys who have to get the first pass to hit the rim in a blitz.

In Dallas, what No. 2 can usually do is pass the ball to No. 41, who is in the mid-range position at the top of the arc, and the latter can choose whether to roll over or fake and then hit the basket. They can't play the pick-and-roll because the former's half-shot is so bad that there is almost no ability to involve it. On the contrary, Comrade Lao Ji's fixed-point three-pointer relies more on Dirk's inside-out...

In short, in terms of the chemical reaction between Kidd and Dirk alone, at least 20 point guards in the league can do it.Like many scoring machines throughout history, the German is the type of player who doesn't need much help from a point guard.

So Kidd's role can only be limited to how to help those other people, regardless of whether No. 41 is present.

According to the conclusions of various experts, Jason Kidd is a great point guard who always seems to do the right thing, sort out the offense, and use experience and inspiration to throw the ball to teammates who are in the open position.
In the playoffs, there is nothing easier than blocking the passing route and cutting off the connection between a core point guard and a role player. When Popovich saw through Kidd's command routine, he only sent a total of 23 assists in the last four games of the series.

When the connection with teammates is cut off, the point guard's personal offensive threat is the only way to break the deadlock and recreate the space for teammates, and Kidd can't do anything about it.If Andre Miller, Billups, Westbrook, and Rose cannot independently score points at critical moments, their teams will undoubtedly die in the first round.

On the defensive end, Jason Kidd after his peak period proved that the data is deceiving-although he maintains much better defensive data than Steve Nash, in fact, the two are the same, and they can’t defend against any opponent in the series.

Everyone beat Kidd's old face into a honeycomb.Unable to prevent the opponent's backcourt is undoubtedly the key to this round of defeat.

Of course, the coach is to blame. In the Suns, Gentry took care of Nash's feelings and also took care of the game. He would send Grant Hilder to block the bullet hole early, but Carlisle let San Xiao's nose and face bruise and let "Mary" sit firmly on the bench.

More fatal than Kidd's personal flaws is that Mark Cuban has been buying lineups around Kidd (not Nowitzki) for the past two years.

He did not hesitate to renew the contract with Kidd at a high price, and then copied the experience of the Suns to sign typical coffee partners such as Marion and Thomas, imagining that the chemical reaction was smooth.

But in the playoffs, except for the only victory, the Mavericks did not play any game that allowed the ball to run smoothly and was full of mobility, because everyone relied too much on Kidd's scheduling, and neither had the Jazz's tacit understanding of any two players on the field.

The age structure is also a problem. The average age of the Mavericks is approaching 31 years old, which is much higher than the old man’s Spurs in people’s inertial thinking, and even one year older than the Celtics. The number of 26-28-year-old golden age group is 0, and it is the only team in the league where all the starters are over 30 years old.

Cuban can't save his team without breaking the boat.

Even if you are desperate, if you miss the point, it is equal to 0...

According to Ron, the Mavericks are actually an enhanced version of the Rockets team that was driven and lacking in passion before Chandler came to Houston...

Sometimes, a little passion, a little inside strength, can change the spirit and combat strength of an entire team...

And if they were to face the Mavericks in the semifinals, Ron had a few plans that would be enough to solve this luxurious but not gorgeous half-team...

A while ago, Dallas Public Enemy, Bruce Bowen, who quit the arena, was asked by a reporter: If a guest reporter interviewed Mark Cuban, what would be your first three questions.

"Where do you get so passionate about basketball?"

"Don't you think this hot energy has made you stretch your hands too far, and you have crossed the line as a boss?"

"Don't you think that what you say is like fuel to anger your enemies?"

"I'm proud of my players, proud of their fighting spirit." Cuban concluded his team owner career, "but not proud of the NBA, not proud of my inability to help the team realize its ideals in the past ten years. So I feel I owe the fans an apology, but this is the way this business (NBA) is played."

Now in front of Ron, it seems that Cuban is much lower-key than Bowen's impression.He said that he hadn't thought about the future yet, and he had to be quiet for a while, and then make a long-term plan in the summer.

This person who has always tried to subvert the rules of the NBA game is surrounded by frustration.

Even Dirk Nowitzki, the team's only non-sale player in a decade, said it would take some time to consider an extension.

From 2000 to 2010, the Dallas Mavericks reached a turning point in history.

Will they still be the wild west cowboys?
Would Dirk still be the leader who stood there no matter how many times he was taunted by fate?

Is Kidd still a trustworthy commander who can really combine selflessness and victory?

Will second centers, jets and small sports cars still be the landscape at American Airlines Center?
Will Cuban still be that crazy guy who has "so much enthusiasm" for basketball and keeps pissing off opponents?

In essence, Dallas is still following the team-building routine of 06. It is nothing more than Haywood and Butler replacing Diop and Josh Howard. Kidd is no more effective than Harris, Marion is no more effective than Stackhouse, and the others... are just older.

So what Mark Cuban owes fans is not an apology, but a broken wrist, and then handing over the baton of general manager to someone more capable...

For example, the frowning Chinese right now...

really…

...

"We and the Spurs both play in the right way, so we both respect each other." During the five-time battle, Cuban yelled "I hate the Spurs" while explaining the origin of the two teams.

But it is precisely from this point of view that the Mavericks’ bad luck is even more unbearable-the other two hard-working kings in the Western Conference and the Suns have not played in the “correct” way in the past ten years. I went, but I went too far.

Where is the problem?Obviously, it is difficult to sum it up in one word, "Bobo Zhugeweichi is too godly".

As the world accuses, Rick Carlisle's employment and command are the primary failures in this series' loss.The positioning of Dampier and Haywood, abandoning Butler and Marion, overusing three small lineups, relying too much on singles and jump shots, almost completely forgetting Stevenson...

This coach who always stands on the sidelines and uses that Jim Carrey face to play "Les Misérables" can only find those obvious mistakes when the whole world is scolding and being stupid. For example, Dampier is not worthy of being the starting center of any NBA team except himself. For example, Raiders can never be used twice. Last year Barea made Pop a painful lesson, so this year should be replaced with Stevenson;

As the schedule progressed, some mistakes were corrected, but most of them were too late; some did not change, because behind these appearances was the deep release of the lack of on-the-spot coping ability of the Mavericks coaching staff.

On the other hand, the lineup is actually not as good as the Mavericks' thick Houston Rockets?

The semifinals are actually just a preview of the first round?It's just that the object of being teased has changed from Dantley to Adelman himself?

But don't forget that Yao Ming and Scola are the most miserable people in the Holy City, and they are second only to Kobe...

At least Houston, which has the home court advantage, will not shout in the headwind: "Give me the ball and I want to go home!"

　Because the Spurs have the four kings of the basketball court: flexible and deadly fat man, short and strong rebounder, hook old man, tall and thin long-range shot king.

　　Because of the four idiots in the Mavericks basketball court: the man who pretends to be a showman, the rookie who is unique, the shoelace teacher is suspended, and the phone (trash talk) keeps talking.

　　So Houston can only - the four major killers on the basketball court: "Give me the ball and I want to go home", "Girls watch and beat chicken blood", "Men Sao shows off their skills and walks alone", "**** sweats and body odor"...
