Chapter 463 When I See You Next Year

In the locker room, everyone is sitting, and when Sanders walks in, he will announce the starting list for tonight.

The door was opened, Sanders walked into the room slowly, and said: "The starters in the first half are Wayne, KG, Sean, and White Wolf."

Saunders deliberately teased people, paused and said, "Ponu."

"Huh?" Vashabek stared blankly at Sanders: "I start?"

"Is there a problem? I can substitute." Sanders joked with him.

Vashabek shouted, "No problem!"

"So, that's what we're going to do tonight, we're going to take advantage of the athleticism of the wing players," Saunders said.

"Coach, don't worry, my pick-and-roll is the second best in the league." Simien said: "The best pick-and-roll player in the league is KG!"

"That's right." Garnett unceremoniously accepted Simeon's friendly flattery.

After the game started, the Mavericks were very uncomfortable with the Timberwolves' change.

This lineup appeared in the second half of Game1.

It was this lineup that turned that close game into a wave of performances by the Timberwolves.

Tonight, the same scenario seems to be happening again.

The defense of Bai Jidong, Battier, and Vashabek locked up the Mavericks' outside offense like a solid wall.

"Gentlemen and ladies, if you want to know what the best defense in the world looks like, then please take a closer look at the Timberwolves' defense. There is no doubt that this is the top defense in history. From the inside to the outside, it is coherent and organized. Targeted, the Timberwolves showed the world the best defense in the NBA," said Mike Breen.

The opening defense helped the Timberwolves build a 10-point lead.

Entering the second quarter, the Mavericks gradually found a solution.

The so-called untie the bell must tie the bell. The biggest advantage of the Timberwolves' defense is the addition of Vashabek, an athletic genius with amazing athletic ability and outstanding defensive awareness.

Likewise, their weakness lies in Vashabek.

Vashabek is certainly talented, but as long as he studies carefully, his awareness, skills, and teamwork are all problems.

Avery Johnson is grasping this point, allowing Josh Howard to adjust his strategy.

Use the pick-and-roll to hit Vashabek and let him mess up.

Vashabek made several fouls one after another, which made the Mavericks' momentum soar.

Offensively, Vashabek is like a black hole.

Once he caught the ball, Howard immediately put him three or four meters away.

The fans at the scene booed one after another, luring Vashabek to make a move.

Vashabek was stuck on a tiger and could only shoot, but his shooting percentage was very low.

For a while, Vashabek, who was full of energy, turned into a negative energy. His existence seemed to be a burden, and the Timberwolves didn't use it, nor did they need it.

Because his defensive effect is very good, but if he keeps him on the court, many of the Timberwolves' tactics cannot be implemented smoothly.

After weighing, Sanders replaced Vashabek.

Vashabek walked off the field with his head down, covering his head with a towel, he didn't want anyone to see his expression.

Old Willis patted him on the shoulder: "Son, you did a good job, don't blame yourself." "It's not bad?" Vashabek took off the towel and looked at Old Willis sharply.

Old Willis took it lightly. He was young and had the same setbacks as Vashabek. "Very good."

Vashabek gritted his teeth, hating his performance just now.

Old Willis said: "You are an amazing soldier. If you use it well, you can kill the enemy. If you don't use it well, you will explode yourself. This is your current effect, but you will not be like this forever."

"You are young, and your future is limitless." Old Willis said.

"That's right, you don't have to worry about it at all. The coach won't take your performance just now to heart." Christie also comforted: "You just need to keep what happened tonight in mind, and strengthen it during training, so as to make today's The shortcomings that were exposed late turned into advantages one by one, and that's when you really replaced Sean as the starter."

"I never thought about replacing Sean, I just want to have a stable playing time." Vashabek said.

"Don't worry, there will be." Old Willis and Christie, the two old guys, took turns feeding Vashabek chicken soup: "If a talented young man like you wants to worry about playing time, then there are many people in this league. They're all going to lose their jobs."

"Relax, the NBA is not that difficult. You have already put one foot in. As long as you keep working hard, the other foot may break in at any time."

The veteran's chicken soup was bowl after bowl, and Vashabek devoured it hungrily, feeling much better.

Replacing Vashabek means that Sanders' strategy has failed.

This hurts morale, and the Mavericks have a chance to turn the situation around in one go.

However, Bai Jidong and Garnett did not want to lose again.

First, Bai Jidong scored two consecutive three-pointers, calling the little general a timeout.

Then Garnett's infinitely mobile defense made it impossible for the Mavericks' offense to play.

Garnett's defense made the Mavericks' offense difficult, like constipation.

In the third quarter, Bai Jidong and Stackhouse had a face-to-face dialogue.

Years of grievances, playoff settlement, there is no more suitable place than this.

Stackhouse attacked bravely, hit Bai Jidong with his back, and succeeded in a step-back jumper; then, Bai Jidong broke through with the ball and got rid of Stackhouse's emergency stop jumper and made a jumper.

Stackhouse is no longer the long-awaited successor to Jordan, and the years have eroded his body.

Bai Jidong scored consecutive points above Stackhouse, and the little general had no choice but to take Stackhouse down.

In the back, the Mavericks have no one to replace, and can only barely support with a battered lineup.

Under the leadership of Bai Weidong and Garnett, the Timberwolves pursued the victory.

In the end, the Timberwolves won by 20 points and avenged what they had done a few days ago.

At the same time, they led the Mavericks 3-1 with a big score and won the match point.

The Mavericks were cornered. Although they have not been eliminated, the outside world agrees that they are already out.

No team can win three games in a row against this Minnesota team. Absolutely not.

"I hope that the people who cheered for our victory are not the same group of people who cheered for our loss a few days ago, otherwise it will be difficult for me to say." Bai Jidong first complained about the nonsense in the fan group, and then said : "This is a gratifying victory. There were many difficulties during the game, but we did not give up. I would like to thank my teammates. It was their support that made us win."

"Dallas has brought you a lot of trouble. What strategy do you think they will adopt in the next game?" A reporter asked.

Bai Jidong said domineeringly: "There is nothing to guess, the series has no suspense, we will end the series at home, sorry, I did not mean to offend, but I am sure we will not return to Dallas."

In Game [-], the Target Center was packed.

In the player tunnel of the home team, Bai Jidong called everyone together and said: "The door to the finals has been opened, let us go in, get rid of Dallas, let us enter the finals, that is our stage, get ready to play !You nasty fellows! You wolves of Apolis!"

Bai Jidong's remarks more or less irritated Mavericks.

Although they have no fighting spirit, but in order to slap Bai Jidong in the face, they are willing to try again.

Therefore, the Mavericks showed a strong desire to win.They're as serious as the Western Conference Finals just started.

Every time the Mavericks score, the scorer will demonstrate to Bai Jidong: "The series will not end tonight."

Therefore, Bai Jidong learned a lot and said to his opponent every time he scored: "The series will end tonight."

A game about whether the Mavericks will be out of the game has turned into a battle of spirits between Bai Jidong and the Mavericks.

Although the desire to make Bai Jidong live up to his words is very strong, there is an obvious gap in strength between the two sides.

The Timberwolves have already figured out the Mavericks, and they are completely suppressed on the scene, and they have the momentum to lead 3 to 1 with a big score.

Don't look at the Mavericks playing lively, in fact, there are losses in every quarter.

To their credit, they never gave up.

For the audience, this is a good thing.

No one wants to see garbage time, and it is best if the suspense can be maintained until the end of the game.

The Mavericks satisfied the audience, bet on their dignity, and fought the Timberwolves to the end.

"No matter what the ending is, we will remember the performance of the Dallas Mavericks. They did not play negatively because they were 3-1 behind. They are still working hard and fighting for victory." Breen said: "In any case, this is respectable. Yes, I salute them."

"I will praise Dallas' performance. This is what the conference finals should be like." Marv Albert also said.

Fighting back, the spirits of the two sides are still too far apart.

The Timberwolves controlled the overall situation and did not leave the slightest chance for the Mavericks.

In the last ten seconds, the Timberwolves led by 11 points, and Bai Jidong took possession of the ball.

Neither team played.

Bai Jidong held the ball in his arms and said to Stackhouse, "I won."

"Yes, you won." Stackhouse listened to the audience's countdown, and when the final whistle sounded, he extended his hand to Bai Jidong: "Congratulations."

"You guys played well."

After many years, Bai Jidong's hatred for Stackhouse also faded.

"No matter who your opponent is in the finals, I will firmly stand on the opposite side of you, and I hope that the champion of the Eastern Conference can blow you up." Stackhouse said.

Bai Jidong sneered: "Then you will be disappointed, because we won't be blown away."

Garnett and Nowitzki, two people who hated each other, gave each other a hug after the series ended.

Garnett said: "See you next year, and I'll still kick your ass."

"When we meet again next year, I will be a different me." Nowitzki did not show any disappointment, "I will become stronger!"

"Don't think that only you will become stronger." Garnett said: "No matter what you become, you are still a German mixed chicken."

"I'm a chicken, and you are America's filth field." Nowitzki said: "You have a mouth that produces filth."

After all, the two did not shake hands and make peace, and the last scene left to each other was unpleasant trash talk.

Bai Jidong was much better, except for Stackhouse, he talked and laughed with everyone in Mavericks.

Because Bai Jidong is not a difficult person to get along with.

His never-closing mouth is a nuisance on the court, but a delight off it.

"That's all about tonight. Minnesota defended the division title and they're going to represent the West in the Finals," Breen said in his final briefing.

PS: Today is the fifth update, for the sake of the fifth update, recommended tickets.
