Double stars shine in Los Angeles

Chapter 190 Big Victory Mavericks Begging for Collection

Before the end of a quarter, the Dallas Mavericks, who used to be strong in the West, were already [-] points behind their opponents.You know, this is the playoffs, not the regular season. Neither defense nor offense can match the regular season. However, the Los Angeles Lakers still took a strong lead by [-] points in the first quarter. Opponent, this is something no one expected before.

Although many so-called experts and media predicted before the game that the Los Angeles Lakers would sweep the Dallas Mavericks, no one expected that the game would be so simple.

The head coach of the Dallas Mavericks got a little anxious, called a timeout again, replaced Chris Kaman with Brandon Wright, and replaced Danny Jones with Vince Carter.Chris Kaman is indeed old, and the continuous futile running back and forth on the field made him even more exhausted in his poor physical strength.

After the timeout, the Dallas Mavericks' offense finally improved.Substitute point guard Dominic Jones made a throw after a breakthrough.Immediately after defending the offense of the Los Angeles Lakers, point guard Darius Morris, who replaced Steve Nash, was too careless. After being successfully intercepted by Dominic Jones, he went straight to the basket of the Los Angeles Lakers and easily went up. basket.Dominic Jones' own layup after a steal was the only bright spot in the first half for the Dallas Mavericks.

Los Angeles Lakers head coach Mike Brown stood up and came to the side of the court and shouted at his players on the court: "Focus! Focus! Don't make unnecessary mistakes!"

Darius Morris dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Seeing that Lin Fengzhe reached out to him for the ball, he immediately passed the basketball over. This is the core and boss of the team in the future. Now that Kobe Bryant is not on the court, That was Lin Fengzhe's biggest, so Darius Morris immediately passed the basketball over.

Lin Fengzhe, who received the pass, posed a three-threat stance facing Sean Marion's defense, and at the same time kept using fake moves to try to shake Sean Marion.Seeing that Sean Marion was unmoved after a few moves, Lin Fengzhe suddenly started, ready to forcibly break through Sean Marion's defense.

Although Sean Marion looks a bit abstract and his shooting moves are a bit ugly, Sean Marion is still very good at defending swingmen.So the moment Lin Fengzhe started, Sean Marion followed Lin Fengzhe.However, although Sean Ma Liang's judgment was very accurate, he was inferior to Lin Fengzhe in terms of speed and strength. In addition, the defender was already in a passive position, so he was thrown away by Lin Fengzhe after only two steps. Most of the body position.

At this time, Lin Fengzhe only had the last line of defense of the Dallas Mavericks in front of him - Brandon Wright!Seeing that Sean Marion had been left behind by Lin Fengzhe, Brandon Wright, who was the team's last line of defense, had to come out to defend.In this way, Li Yifeng was vacated under the basket.

Just when everyone thought that Lin Fengzhe would choose to attack by himself or pass the ball to Li Yifeng, Lin Fengzhe directly passed the basketball beyond the three-point line at the top of the arc!
There was a figure in the No. [-] jersey, none other than Tracy McGrady.The Dallas Mavericks didn't notice when Tracy McGrady appeared in that position. Their attention was on Lin Fengzhe, who is now the number one player besides Kobe Bryant. Score points!Of course, no one knows how Lin Fengzhe found Tracy McGrady and passed the basketball over, because Lin Fengzhe never looked in any direction from the beginning to the end, not even a glance.

Unguarded Tracy McGrady received a pass from Lin Fengzhe and made some adjustments. He still had time to see if he stepped on the line before taking a long three-pointer. It was still the familiar low arc shot. Basketball Hit the back edge of the rim with a "pop" and bounce into the hoop.Tracy McGrady, who succeeded in the attack, was still the same as before, still sleepy and sleepy, and there was no celebration. He just pointed at Lin Fengzhe when he retreated back to the defense, indicating this It was a good shot, and then turned around and went back to prepare for the next defense.

Although the offense of the Dallas Mavericks has improved, the point difference is still in double digits. The defense of the Dallas Mavericks obviously does not have much effect in front of the Lakers.After the first quarter, the score was 32 to [-], and the Los Angeles Lakers led their opponents by [-] points at home.

Due to the fact that the Dallas Mavericks fell behind too much in the first quarter, the main players in the starting lineup, except for Chris Kaman, who was resting on the bench, and Darren Collison, who was hit before, all played , Knowing Dengtai Jones who controls the ball on the field.

For the Los Angeles Lakers, Yao Ming, Josh McRoberts, World Peace, Tracy McGrady and Darius Morris played in the second quarter.The first offensive point of this lineup is Tracy McGrady, and the second offensive point is Josh McRoberts, who has improved significantly this season.As for Yao Ming, it is more necessary to cover for his teammates in the high position and then receive the return pass from his teammates to support or score by himself.

The Dallas Mavericks took advantage early in the second quarter, taking advantage of Yao Ming's slow movement, and Dirk Nowitzki used Brandon Wright's screen to score consecutively and play a [-]-[-] attack Wave.

Mike Brown called a short timeout, without any arrangement, just to interrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm, and at the same time stabilize his players.

After the timeout, the Los Angeles Lakers stabilized as Josh McRoberts caught a point fake shot off a Tracy Darius Morris drive that dangled past Brandon Wright's defense before one-handed The split buckle scored his second score of the game.

When the game lasted for almost 5 minutes in this section, the Dallas Mavericks took advantage of a dead ball and began to rotate personnel, replacing Dirk Nowitzki and other starters.Vince Carter and Chris Kaman were on the field with three backups.

Without Dirk Nowitzki and Shawn Marion, the Dallas Mavericks were down a notch both offensively and defensively.After the Los Angeles Lakers' defensive pressure decreased, their offensive efficiency improved again.Soon the score gap that was narrowed just now was once again widened by the Los Angeles Lakers, and the score gap returned to double digits again, reaching [-] points.

Seeing that the point difference was widened again, Rick Carlisle had to replace the main players who had not been resting for a long time, so as to stabilize the situation, but facing the Los Angeles Lakers who had already played the feeling, they couldn't do it again. Soon the score was close.

When the game was about to end in less than 3 minutes in the first half, the Los Angeles Lakers also replaced their main players in order to maintain the player's touch.The main players who played again still maintained the previous good touch and offensive rhythm. Although there was a small problem, they quickly adjusted and still maintained the suppression of the Dallas Mavericks.

At halftime, the Los Angeles Lakers ended the first half with a 22-point lead.

At halftime, the head coaches of both sides stayed behind to accept a short interview with reporters.

"We didn't do well enough in the first half, especially our defense was poor, we didn't limit the opponent's offense well and let the opponent score easily. On the offensive end, we couldn't play our own rhythm and fell into the The opponent's defense is in the quagmire. Now we are in a vicious cycle, and we will make changes in the next game." This is the words of Dallas Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle.

The head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, Mike Brown, seemed very relaxed, "Our players realized very well in the first half, played our tactical arrangements perfectly, and our excellent realization on both ends of the offense and defense. Opponents, this gave us a big advantage. In the second half of the game, we will continue to do so and keep the advantage until the end."

In the locker room of the Dallas Mavericks, the atmosphere was a bit dull. Even though Carlisle and Dirk Nowitzki kept encouraging their teammates, the effect was not very good.The two of them could only sigh secretly.

Intermission time passed quickly.There is already a clear gap in the momentum of the players on the two sides playing again, and the Dallas Mavericks seem to have no idea of ​​wanting to fight.On the other hand, the Los Angeles Lakers have high morale.
