Chapter 372 Dinghai God Needle
In a fiery atmosphere, the game continued.

Seeing that the team led the Mavericks by many points, the Clippers fans shouted for defense in unison.

Maybe it's because the momentum is at a disadvantage, maybe the offensive and defensive strategy is wrong, maybe the Clippers are too fierce, the Mavericks' scoring efficiency is still low, and the defensive end can't stop the Clippers from scoring wantonly. With the Clippers' 6-2 wave, the first The game is over.

The Clippers took a 33-16 lead, and Su Yang temporarily took a rest in accordance with the rotation plan.

Van Gundy rallied the whole team to surround him and repeatedly emphasized that he should not be careless, because the Mavericks have had many major reversals this season, and the [-]-point lead can easily be tied, especially when the main team is resting and the Mavericks retain the main force.

Su Yang echoed his words and expressed his agreement. After all, the Clippers took the lead before, and some of them were willing to leave the field early for the two main players, Dirk Nowitzki and Chandler, which led to fewer offensive options for the Mavericks. They played several times around Peja. .

The generals of the Clippers nodded in agreement, followed by the sound of the whistle at the end of the intermission.

The audience shouted excitedly, almost drowning the referee's whistle, and the Mavericks attacked from the bottom line of the backcourt.

Barea took the ball to the left waist of the frontcourt and imitated Kidd to execute the extremely complicated screen tactic at the beginning. The Mavericks circled around and finally let Terry receive a wide open pass at the top of the arc, and Terry Li shot three-pointers with confidence.

The basketball smashed the basket and hit the iron, the Clippers got a defensive rebound, and Foye caught the ball and launched a counterattack.

Kaman mentioned the top of the arc as a screen, moved to the right after receiving the ball, and handed over to Gordon at 45 degrees.

Terry was blocked by Kaman's human wall and couldn't catch up with Gordon for a while.Seeing this, Nowitzki immediately switched defenses to intercept, and Barea also moved laterally from the left to assist in the defense. The three Mavericks surrounded Gordon in an instant, giving only space to retreat.

Gordon didn't panic at all. While running, he suddenly raised his hand and hit the ball to the right. Kaman just made an empty cut and went down to attack the basket.

But as soon as Kaman picked up the basketball, he encountered Haywood's defense, so he could only bite the bullet and force the basket in a hurry.

The basketball hit the basket and fell, and Kaman grabbed the offensive rebound again, jumped vigorously on the spot, and put the basket again regardless of the defense.

Su Yang excitedly stood up and raised his hands in advance to celebrate, but the basketball hit the basket again and fell, but before he could sit back on the bench, Jermaine O'Neal grabbed an offensive rebound, followed by jumping and laying the basket.

I thought it was a long shot, but Nowitzki jumped behind his back and slapped the basketball with a big hat.

In the chaotic scramble, Nowitzki bent over to get the basket and pull the ball, and immediately passed it to Barea.The Mavericks immediately launched a fast-break counterattack. Barea rushed to the frontcourt, carried Foye and took off for a layup, and steadily scored 2 points.

"Barea's core confrontation is very powerful. I can't believe that he is only so tall..." George sighed softly, turning his head to look at Su Yang, "How did he manage to keep his layup movement stable, and it was a heavy weight confrontation? Do you understand?"

Su Yang raised his finger and pointed to the large central screen, "Look carefully, in fact, after facing Ang's weight, his hand movements have also been deformed, but his waist and abdomen are very strong, and his flexibility is also excellent, which can barely guarantee that his movements will not be affected. .”

The replay of the video showed that Barea picked the ball into the net almost lying down, which required great flexibility.

George nodded thoughtfully: "Then I will also add hip lifts to my training program like you..."

On the court, the Clippers continued to implement the tactics of the previous round.

Gordon took the ball at 45 degrees again, bypassed the screen and immediately took off to shoot, not giving the Mavericks a chance to encircle.

The basketball crashed into the net with a bang, and the score of the two teams became 35 to 18.

The Mavericks launched a counterattack, and Terry continued to use screens to do Iverson's cross-cut tactics, successfully attracting the defense's attention, but passed the ball to Nowitzki, who opened and cut inside, making Kaman bite the bullet and defend. , Helplessly let Haywood go.

Nowitzki decisively hit the ball to the ground, Haywood received the ball from the left waist and made a three-step rush, causing Turk to make a supplementary foul.

Considering Haywood's low free throw percentage, Su Yang raised his hands to signal the audience to boo him.

The audience on the sidelines first knew how to boo, and the other audience booed together, like tens of thousands of mosquitoes flapping their wings at the same time.

Perhaps it was because the sound wave was too strong, after Heywood made the first free throw, he actually threw a three-pointer in the second free throw.

O'Neal grabbed the rebound and passed it to Foye nearby, but Barea was close to the defense in time, and the fast break failed.

Foye still sprinted the ball across the center line, stopped to observe on the left side, and suddenly made a long pass to the right corner.

Such a pass is quite risky. The Mavericks were not prepared and could only watch Tucker make a three-pointer.

The basketball went into the net hollow, and the Clippers led 38 to 19, and the advantage was getting bigger and bigger.

"Those media said that the Mavericks will be our strong enemy. Are they deliberately attracting the attention of the fans, avoiding the game too early and one-sidedness, and focusing on the ratings? With the performance of the Mavericks, how can they be our opponents?" George shrugged slightly. .

Su Yang responded with a smile, turned his head and continued the game on the field.

Nowitzki made two free throw line screens in a row and finally helped clear the space in the right half.

Butler took the ball at 45 degrees on the right side and rushed. Nowitzki screened for the third time in the same round and completely blocked the attempt to catch up with Tucker. Butler took the opportunity to rush to the basket and took off against Kaman's defense. Hit the iron.

Haywood, who was temporarily unguarded, followed up and grabbed an offensive rebound.

"Nowitzki is too calm. They are 21 to 38 behind now, but he doesn't seem to notice it. If it is replaced by the general team leader, he probably has already taken over the game. How can he help his teammates with three single-block screens in a row?" George sighed road.

"He is the kind of star who needs him to stand up, just wait and see." Su Yang replied.

On the court, the Clippers continued to play the previous 15 and 24 pairs of tactics.

Foye dribbled the ball to the top of the arc and passed it to Kaman to cover Kaman. At the same time, O'Neal set up a wall on the right side as a screen. Gordon took the opportunity to lift from the short corner and rushed to the right Lateral 45-degree three-point line.

In this way, Kaman moved the ball to the right, and once again formed a hand-to-hand screen cooperation with Gordon.

Maybe it was because of being fucked twice in a row to accumulate experience points, or maybe he was so angry that he decided to take a gamble. Terry stepped around suddenly, bent down to grab the basketball, and Gordon was not paying attention, and almost gave the ball to him. Lost, hurriedly took three steps.

Who ever thought that Nowitzki went up to intercept in advance, and Gordon was in a hurry, and there was not enough room for manipulation.

Helpless, Gordon quickly hit the ball to the ground, and it was too late to align.

Kaman turned around and stepped to grab the basketball. As soon as he got up, he was surrounded by Terry and Nowitzki. After a quick glance, he could only pass the ball long to the left corner, but with only 4 seconds left in the attack, Tucker received Basketball, immediately rush to shoot a three-pointer.

The basketball slammed into iron, Nowitzki leaped high, grabbed the ball with both hands and landed, and passed it straight to Terry.

The Mavericks team rushed, Terry ran to the top of the arc with the ball, stopped and slowed down, and patiently waited for his teammates to get in position.

Nowitzki followed up to the free throw line, got the ball behind his back, and Gordon was forced to switch defenses in a misplaced single.

The two confronted a few times, Gordon was not tall enough, and he retreated again and again, losing defense visibly to the naked eye.

Nowitzki found the rhythm, turned right often, faced Tucker's pincers, and raised his hand to pass the ball.

Barea caught the ball in the right corner, flew back to the defensive Tucker with a fake move, and hit the basket in two steps.

Kaman hurried up to defend, but his movements were too slow, and Barias passed by him directly.

Foye rushed up again, trying to block Barea's hook shot, and the ball flew straight to the left wing.

Amid the boos all over the court, Terry received the ball wide open, took off steadily and shot a three-pointer.

bass!The basketball went into the net hollow, 38 to 24.

"I want to practice post-up to the free throw line as soon as possible, that move is too cruel!" George said enviously, "Ordinary big players get misplaced opportunities at the free throw line, and few people can back-up like Nowitzki. beat."

Su Yang smiled: "Come on, Dirk Nowitzki is the only player in the NBA who is proficient in post-ups from the baseline, post-ups from the waist, and post-ups from the high position. To reach his level, it takes seventy years for a talented player to reach his level." Eight years."

"Huh?" George froze.

On the court, Gordon looked for cover at the top of the arc and was suddenly double-teamed by the Mavericks, but Kaman took the opportunity to slip into the paint.

Seeing this situation, Gordon pulled the ball back, raised his hand and put the ball straight into the paint area, the position was a little low.

Kaman bent down to grab the ball, got up and was intercepted by Nowitzki, and Butler and Haywood arrived immediately.

The Mavericks were surrounded by three groups, not giving any possibility of operation, and Kaman hurriedly moved around trying to get rid of it.

It's a pity that the referee whistled and whistled for walking, and the ball was transferred to the Mavericks. The audience booed to express their dissatisfaction.

Offensive and defensive transitions, the Mavericks continued to cover at 45 degrees on the right.

Barea interspersed back and forth, finally pulling out space at the top of the arc, and hurriedly used Heywood to cover and break through.

Kaman stayed at the free throw line and waited, but Barea went up to the basket resolutely, and the two collided head-on.Kaman suddenly raised his hand and slapped the racket and flew it out of bounds. The referee immediately whistled for the violation and gave the Mavericks the right to the baseline.

With 11 seconds left in the shot clock, the Mavericks didn't discuss what tactics to play. Butler went directly to the right side to get the ball and waited, while Terry and Heywood were standing in the short corner on the right side. Barea and Nowitzki were standing Free throw coil top.

Seeing Mavericks standing like that, Su Yang stood up with his hands behind his head: "Nowitzki is going to score..."

George stared blankly, and subconsciously asked, "How did you see that..."

Before the words were finished, the referee blew his whistle, Heywood turned and started, and went straight to the left corner along the free throw line.

Terry also started running to the right corner, Butler made a gesture to pass the ball, but at the same time, Barea set up a wall to block O'Neal, Nowitzki took the opportunity to go around the screen and rush to the basket, and raised his hand to catch the ball , take off and hit the board easily.

boom!The basketball rebounded into the net, 38 to 26.

Su Yang patted George on the shoulder, "Let's go, Jeff is going to ask for a timeout."

George was still a little dazed, and Van Gundy raised his hand at the referee to signal a timeout, and Foye just took the ball past halftime.

The Clippers gathered together, and Van Gundy said with a smile: "See, we suddenly led so much before, and a large part of the reason is because they replaced Nowitzki in advance to rest..."

Su Yang nodded in response. After Nowitzki reappeared, although he only scored 2 points, 1 block, 1 rebound and 1 assist, there were still many indirect assists, as well as a large number of correct and timely screens, which directly revitalized the Mavericks' overall offense.

As far as the Mavericks are concerned, Nowitzki's role is comparable to that of Dinghaishenzhen.
