The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 231 Old Nelson's Confidence!Battle Dallas!
Due to time constraints, Zhang Bolong could only watch the match between the Heat and the Bulls at three o'clock in the afternoon.

In his impression, the Bulls seemed to have swept the Heat in this playoffs.

In the first game, the Bulls did win.

Facing the menacing "herd of bulls", the hot flames of the Heat seemed to be mostly extinguished by the wine in last year's championship trophy.

Although the points difference between the two sides has been kept anxious, no one has taken too much lead.

But the Bulls always held the initiative in the game. Luol Deng, Ben Gordon, and Hinrich took turns to attack, and the battle was resolved like a frog boiled in warm water.

At 96:91, the Chicagoans won the first game of the series with a 5-point advantage.

What Zhang Bolong couldn't understand was that the Heat didn't seem to show the belief and fighting spirit to win at all.

On the court, you can't see their indomitable fighting spirit last year.

Even the team's top star "The Flash" Wade only took 16 shots and scored 21 points while contributing 5 fouls and 5 turnovers.

It can be said that it is like sleepwalking.

They are too old-fashioned. For those veterans who won a championship and their careers are complete, they have lost the motivation and desire to fight.

This atmosphere even spread to the whole team.

Being eliminated by the young bulls is also a reasonable necessity.

"Did you watch the game?"

"The Nets and Raptors haven't finished playing yet, they are very close."

On the special plane of the Warriors, several people were still discussing the game just now.

"It seems that the Heat will be eliminated by the Bulls in the first round this year."

"I feel the same way. They are in a bad state this year."

"They don't even want to play! Shaq is really old."

"Who was the last defending champion who was eliminated in the first round?"

"Long, what do you think of Wade's performance just now? He is the FMVP! How is it like the first playoff game?"

As soon as Zhang Bolong sat down, Ellis asked.

Harrington and others also turned their heads.

"If Dwyane can maintain the state of last year's finals, then he is not just the FMVP, the MVP must also be his."

Zhang Bolong laughed and said,
"But if I were him, I would choose to take 10 more shots, maybe the team will lose more, but at least it looks vigorous, not dying like this.

"I agree, so shall we all hand you the ball later?" Richardson replied with a smile, "Let's have a blast."

"That's the Mavericks! Let me guess, will our title after the game be: The Dragons scored 60 points, but the Warriors lost to the Mavericks by a big score, and the total score fell behind 0:1?" Pietrus The expression is exaggerated.

Looking at these teammates joking and joking with each other, Zhang Bolong also felt a lot more relaxed.

This proves that the team has a good atmosphere and has not been overwhelmed by the upcoming battle.

Fly all the way.

As soon as he got off the plane, Zhang Bolong received a piece of good news.

The Rockets won!
At the Toyota Center, the Rockets played a beautiful comeback.

Once trailing the Jazz by 14 points, McGrady scored 8 points on 7-of-16 shooting in the third quarter. The Rockets overtook the score and kept their lead until the end.

In the end, Yao Mai scored 28 points and helped the Rockets take a 1:0 lead.

This made Zhang Bolong feel refreshed when he arrived in Dallas.

It has always been the role of others to reverse the Rockets. If you want to see the Rockets reverse, it was basically a Chinese New Year dumpling a few decades ago...

He was happy for Dayao from the bottom of his heart.

Although the Rockets lost the tiebreaker in the previous life, many things have changed since he crossed over. The fate of the Rockets may not be as tragic as in the previous life.

At least, Boozer had nothing to do against Dayao in today's game. On the offensive end, he even made 17 of 4 shots, and he was out of the sky.

If this guy can't get back to form on time, the Rockets might really be able to break the curse of the first round ahead of schedule.

After sending the congratulatory message to Yao Ming, Zhang Bolong also joined the team in the preparation training.

……

In 2006, after Zhang Bolong was selected by the Lakers, the number of domestic basketball fans suddenly exploded.

Basketball has also become the favorite sports activity for all Chinese men and even some women.

And these two days are undoubtedly the most exciting days for these domestic fans. The grand occasion is almost as if the national football team is rushing towards the World Cup qualification.

Their two home teams, the Rockets and the Warriors, will play their opponents in the playoffs successively, launching an impact towards the glory of the championship.

A group stage similar to the World Cup belongs to it.

The popularity of these two teams, especially the Warriors, is far greater than the influence of e-sports events on young students in the future.

When the Rockets got off to a good start as they wished, people also focused all their attention on the Warriors.

They expect that Zhang Bolong can successfully win the precious victory in the playoffs like Yao Ming.

……

The game is about to start,
In the player tunnel, Old Nelson patted the boys on the shoulder one by one.

The old man was silent for a while, and finally cleared his throat:

"I know that many of us are on the stage of the playoffs for the first time."

He looked into these young eyes,
"But I'm going to tell you, there's nothing special about it."

"Think about your first game in the NBA, and think about today."

"nervous?"

Old Nelson's eyes also revealed memories.

"...you survived, and not only that, but you became a vital part of a playoff team."

"If you were not eliminated at that time, you were destined to make a difference at such a moment."

His voice was getting higher and higher.

"The outside world looked down on us, thinking that the Dallas Mavericks would easily sweep us."

"They didn't care that we swept the regular season because everyone thought the playoffs were the real game."

"So now, my lads, go out there and prove that we're a group of brave, unafraid warriors, whether it's the regular season or the playoffs!"

"Remember our tactics, I guarantee with my 30 years of coaching experience, we definitely have the strength to beat the Mavericks!"

Zhang Bolong rarely heard old Nelson give such a passionate pre-match speech,
He knew that the old man was not in a calm mood at this time.

On the opposite side is the team that I personally cultivated and built, no matter from players, stars, or coaches.

Under his own hands, the Mavericks have become one of the most competitive teams in the West, and they are not even far away from the goal of a championship.

But due to various reasons and intensified conflicts, he left.

Is it revenge?

It never occurred to him.

But want to win?

of course!

The old man looked at Zhang Bolong.

"Take them to the Dallas Mavericks, is there a problem?"

Zhang Bolong smiled,

"It's not a big problem."
