Chapter 224 221. Defeat the Sun Easily (Part [-])
The performance of the Mavericks rewrote coach Alvin Gentry's previous analysis of them.

"The Mavericks can play the league's first record, and is far ahead of No.2, not because of the strength of a few stars."

"Of course, strength is also one of the factors for them to win, and what is more important is the strength of the team formed by these people."

"Like Arenas, a player who hasn't played an official game for a long time, was first injured and then suspended a lot."

"At the beginning, no one believed that he could return to the All-Star level. Everyone thought he was a negative asset in the trade between the Mavericks and Wizards."

"After coming to the Mavericks, the atmosphere of the team changed for Arenas. He stopped acting recklessly and started defending."

When Gentry thought of Arenas, he couldn't help sighing, "The influence of the team is really too great. The Suns were a good team before, but now they have fallen apart."

"The example of Arenas is the most obvious. Kidd has a second spring, boxing champion Tyson Chandler also has a sense of presence, and even players like Yi Jianlian and Jeremy Lin who are not physically dominant can play better and better. The current Mavericks make everyone better."

Gentry couldn't help but believe that this was Xiaoding's role.

But in fact, Xiaoding alone cannot change the team.

Nowitzki, as the leader of the team, he played a role in shaping the character of the entire team.

Five years ago, Nowitzki was at the peak of his career. He won the MVP, led the team to the finals, and led 5:2 in the start.

Just when everyone thought that the Mavericks would beat the Heat to win the first championship in team history, the referee's father helped the Heat fight back against the Mavericks in four consecutive cities.

Cuban, who was so angry about this matter, even declared that he would find a private detective to investigate the alliance.

Although I don't know what method the league used to suppress Cuban's anger, that finals also became one of the cases of referee intervention.

After losing in the finals, Nowitzki and his Mavericks have experienced such humiliating moments as black eight and black seven.

If it were another superstar who has been called a softie by the media, his mentality would have collapsed long ago.

But Nowitzki didn't, and the repeated defeats kept motivating him to become a better version of himself, and that's how he got the unsolvable golden rooster independent stunt.

Nowitzki's experience happens to be a low-pitched cello piece, which may remain low, but with the addition of cheerful violins, it can play a heavenly note.

Ding Yan Yuhang is the violin that can play with Nowitzki!

The addition of Xiaoding has completely activated Nowitzki's off-the-ball skills. He can use his footwork and experience to catch opponents off guard.

After all, those who are as tall as him are not as fast as him, those who are faster than him are not as old as him, and those who are older than him have no sideways movement, so Nowitzki can often be like a wedge directly wedged in the most painful position of the opponent!

His success rate of mid-range, three-pointers and air cut layups ranks among the top in the league. Coupled with Ding's support, Kidd's pass, the boxing champion's screen, and the general's interspersed, Nowitzki played easily and the effect was even better.

Gentry believes that nowitzki's data will become more and more eye-catching as Ding is getting better and better with the Mavericks.

Even if the core position of the team is given up, Nowitzki will still be a top ten superstar in the league.

With the cooperation of the three generals, it is not surprising that the Mavericks can win so many games.

In Gentry's eyes, whether it is the Big Three of the Heat or the Big Three of the Celtics, the two Big Three in the Eastern Conference are not as reasonable as the three generals of the Mavericks.

That is to say, Nowitzki is unwilling to play center now. If he switches to center, Ding can go to power forward, and then let Marion, Arenas, and Kidd assist, the Mavericks' offense will surpass the peak Suns.

Gentry has seen this step, and suffice to say he is a good coach.

However, Carlisle has actually been experimenting with this lineup for a long time.

To deal with the Suns, of course, you only need a regular lineup, but at the critical moment of the playoffs or finals, he has the courage to change. Anyway, Carlisle’s nickname is also Jim Carrey, ah no, a master tactician!

While Gentry was thinking wildly, the Suns were about to lose their bottoms.

The three quarters are not over yet, and the Suns lost by 24 points.

What's more deadly is that when the full main lineup is on the court, the Suns have been losing points, but the substitutes can chase points a little bit.

Of course, it is impossible to expect the substitutes to fill in the holes. Their offense and defense are extremely unstable.

So Gentry, who put Bao on the bench, quickly recognized the reality that the game was over.

In the fourth quarter, the two sides sent their substitutes to finish the garbage time.

The Suns' bench narrowed the deficit to 15 points.

It's a pity that there was no time for Nash and others to come back and fight again. The game ended at 116:101, and the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Phoenix Suns at home.

Because Xiaoding and the others only played three quarters, everyone's statistics are not outstanding.

But their high efficiency horrified the media.

When Ding, Nowitzki and Arenas are on the court at the same time, the Mavericks can beat their opponents by 41 points per [-] possessions!
And it's not just this game, the commentator called up the previous data. The data shows that the total score difference of the three of them is 17 points ahead of the second-ranked Celtics Big Three and 21 points ahead of the third-ranked Spurs GDP!
As for the Big Three of the Heat, when they are on the court at the same time, the Heat can only win by 11 points, which is embarrassing, because this data is not as good as most of the three-core teams in the league.

After the Mavericks defeated the old rival Suns, Lao Na and Nowitzki hugged and greeted.

Nowitzki asked half-jokingly, "Do you want to come to Dallas?"

Nash smiled helplessly. Why doesn't he want to go home, and if he can win the championship when he comes back, he will kill two birds with one stone.

But now the Mavericks lineup is quite united, even if he was the assist leader last year, there is no reason to replace Kidd at all.

After all, like Kidd, Nash is also getting old, and it is hard to say whether he can maintain his peak for a few years.

On the contrary, it is Kidd, who is obviously the last contract, and will retire after the game. The Mavericks have no reason to drive away one of the Dallas 3J combinations at the last moment!

In terms of origin, Kidd has a deeper origin than Nash.

Nash was also very aware of this, so he just shook his head, then gave Nowitzki a high-five and a bump on the shoulder.

The exhausted Nash walked back to the locker room behind his teammates.

Looking at him, his old teammate Marion felt a little uncomfortable.

Obviously Nash is still at his peak, but he feels old and tired.

When brother basketball became a thing of the past, everyone went their separate ways, but reunited as opponents, Marion silently wished Nash good luck in his heart, and wished the son of the wind to continue to fly with the wind...
