Chapter 237 Winning streak
"A star-studded superstar moment, a dominant performance!"

Although before the start of the series between the Kings and the Mavericks, in the eyes of most of the media, Yan Hua was still a bit behind Dirk Nowitzki, but after the game, when Yan Hua was in the game At the last moment, he scored 10 points in a row and directly took over the game. After scoring a quasi-triple-double of 30+ in the whole game, Yan Hua was greeted with overwhelming praise. Yan Hua is not as good as Dirk Novi Cisky's words, after this game, no one mentioned it again.

Especially in the next second duel, after the King defeated the Mavericks again, those newspapers and media praised Yan Hua, which made Yan Hua blush a little. What is the greatest center after the four major centers? The number one center forward in ten years is about to create a king of an era, so Yan Hua can no longer tell whether the media are praising him or trying to blackmail him.

After going through the test in the first game, the Kings and Mavericks have almost figured out each other's bottom line. The Kings are basically able to deal with the Mavericks' three-inner lineup skillfully. After hitting three insiders, Yan Hua was not completely restrained, which undoubtedly boosted Reggie Toyce's confidence, so in the second game between the two sides, regardless of whether Rick Carlisle will continue to use the three For the inside lineup, Reggie Toyce still followed the previous game as a model and sent out a starting lineup of Yan Hua, Dante Green, Serge Ibaka, Kevin Martin, and Tony Allen.

Compared with Spencer Hawes, Dante Green is a little shorter and lighter. He has always played the fourth position. The three-point ability is also stronger than Spencer Hawes. A four-position with a playing style similar to Rashard Lewis is easier to open up space and provide more offense for Yan Hua. Under pressure, without having to consider defending Dirk Nowitzki, the fourth position of Dante Green is undoubtedly more suitable to form a partner with Yan Hua.

As for Tony Allen, who was repeatedly emptied by the Mavericks in the last game, Reggie Toyce did not use Zhu Holiday to replace Tony Allen as the starter like in the series against the Trail Blazers. One is because of Tony Allen's game experience, and another point is that Tony Allen's defense is stronger. Not only can he wipe Kevin Martin's ass anytime and anywhere, but he can also limit the Mavericks' Jay Sen Kidd.

Tony Allen once said a famous saying: I don't know much about offense, but you can't understand it in front of me.Although there are some exaggerated elements, this sentence also explains Tony Allen's role on the court very well.

Although he is a combo guard who can play two positions, Tony Allen is unqualified in many aspects. He lacks passing vision, no organizational talent, and poor shooting. No, playing the first position has no organizational talent, passing and handling the ball are average, playing the second position is too short, has no shots, and has a single scoring method. If it is a team that requires high guards, Tony -A player of Allen's type is afraid that he will be on the bench.

But in the king who has a third position who can barely organize, and a fifth position with a very strong support ability, and does not need to score, a defender of the type Tony Allen has the soil to survive, because Tony - Allen has the defense that the Kings need most. As long as Tony Allen is on the court, Kevin Martin can devote all his energy to offense and scoring, let alone Tony Allen who plays the first position , It can also prevent the opponent's No. [-] position from passing the ball and scoring points.

In the last game, although Tony Allen played 32 minutes, he only scored 7 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists, but Jason Kidd, who was facing Tony Allen, was also beaten. Tony Allen limited the embarrassing data of only 5 points and 4 assists. Unlike Tony Allen, Jason Kidd is the brain of the Mavericks and the starting point of the Mavericks' offense. Jason Kidd Germany being restrained, or being handed over by Tony Allen, has an impact on the Mavericks' offensive end far more than the impact on the Kings. After all, the Kings don't need Tony Allen to organize, nor can they There is no need for Tony Allen to score, so knowing that Tony Allen is likely to continue to be emptied, Reggie Toyce still arranges for Tony Allen to start and let him go with Jason Kidd Duizi went.

Tony Allen's restraint on Jason Kidd and Dante Green's starting start as an odd tie were all important factors in the Kings' victory over the Mavericks in Game [-] of the series, but the Kings were able to win in Game [-]. The key to defeating the Mavericks in the game is the outstanding performance of Yan Hua and Kevin Martin, who are the core of the team and the main scorers.

In the second game of the series, the Mavericks still continued the tactics and strategies of the previous game, focusing on taking care of Yan Hua, but Kevin Martin scored 21 points in the first half, and Dante Green scored 7 points in the first half. Shoot 4 three-pointers, forcing Rick - Carlisle had to change the king's defensive strategy in the second half.

However, as soon as the Mavericks' defense against Yan Hua relaxed, Yan Hua succeeded in singles against Eric Dampier inside, forcing the Mavericks' inside to start shrinking again.

"This is the real combination of internal and external tactics." When the game ended, the Kings defeated the Mavericks 98-89 at home. Wicki's Charles Barkley also praised the King's performance in this game.

With the inside players as the core, rely on their super scoring ability at the basket to attract the opponent's double-team and create mobile opportunities for the outside players, while the outside players use continuous scoring to share the pressure on the inside players and create singles for them. This is a virtuous circle, a cycle that can bring victory to the team, and it is also the essence of combining internal and external tactics, and the current king has obviously found the essence of combining internal and external tactics.

"The Kings and the Rockets are becoming more and more similar." Of course, the Rockets that Kenny Smith talked about are not the Rockets that can't even make the playoffs now, but the one that was led by Hakeem O. The King Rockets led by Rajuwon, but whether this King can reach the highest peak of the NBA like that Rocket, Kenny Smith does not know.
