Chapter 322 From 20 to 22
In this game, Kidd, who seldom attacked in the regular season, showed his prowess. He scored 3 and 3 points in the first half and scored a "2+3" in the second half of the second quarter.His performance surprised the Trail Blazers, and they were a little overwhelmed.

Nuo Tianwang is still so stable, no matter what method the opponent uses to defend him, he can still score steadily. ——This is hard power, and this is the role of stars.

Ying Xiong didn't get too many offensive opportunities, but he never easily wasted offensive opportunities. In terms of rebounds and defense, he fought very hard, which well restricted the opponent's 2nd position Matthews and 3rd position Gerrard Wallace.

With a wave of offensive climax in the second quarter, the Mavericks opened up the point difference in an instant, and the stalemate was also broken.Being pulled away in the opponent's home half, and the overall strength is not as good as the opponent, it is really difficult for the Trail Blazers.

In the second half of the game, the Trail Blazers counterattacked many times, but still failed to turn over, and finally lost the game regrettably.

The Mavericks won the first victory in the series, and the fans cheered enthusiastically. This is a victory for the team and a victory for the fans.

In this game, the Mavericks used a 9-man rotation, while the opponent had an 8-man rotation. In terms of physical fitness, younger opponents did not take advantage of it.

本场比赛，诺维斯基和基德是表现最出色的两名小牛球员。这是应雄首场以首发身份出战的季后赛，他在上场的33分钟里，9投4中，其中3分球4投2中，罚球2罚全中，得到12分10个篮板2次助攻3个抢断1个盖帽的数据。

This is the first time Yingxiong has achieved a double-double in the playoffs. The team can finally win, and his contribution is also indispensable.A shooting guard can grab so many rebounds, including 4 offensive rebounds. It can only be said that this player is so active, they work hard, and they are so brave.

On April 4, the second matchup between the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers in the first round of the playoffs will continue at the American Airlines Center Arena, the home of the Mavericks.If the Mavericks continue to win this game, they will go to the away game with a score of 22:2, and the situation is very good; if the Trail Blazers win, it means that they will win the home court advantage and have a good situation in the next game.

Generally speaking, the losing side will change first.But in this game, the Blazers' starting lineup remains unchanged, and it is still the 5 players from the previous game.Of course, changing the formation does not necessarily mean changing the starting lineup. You can also adjust the rotation lineup, such as adjusting the order of rotation players, increasing rotation, and so on.

After the start of the game, both sides entered the state quickly, and immediately launched a confrontation, and the score also took the lead alternately.The Trail Blazers learned the lessons of the previous game's defeat and played more decisively and quickly, trying to grasp the rhythm and initiative of the game by speeding up the game.

The Mavericks have historical level point guard Kidd. As a master of rhythm control, he patiently responds to the opponent, not being led by the opponent's rhythm to his own rhythm.

The two teams played evenly in the first half, but at the beginning of the second half, the situation was completely controlled by the Mavericks.In this game, Kidd contributed 3 3-pointers, Nuo Tianwang also had a stable output of 33 points, the most surprising thing was that substitute Peja scored 5 3-pointers, and the team won the game One of the heroes.

Ying Xiong's performance in this game was still eye-catching, scoring 8 points and 11 rebounds, and continued to play the role of a strong flank.

The Mavericks lead 2:0 in the series, and the prospects for advancement are bright; while the Trail Blazers are standing on the edge of a cliff, and they must win the next game when they return home, or they will be led by the opponent with a total score of 3:0. No team in the history of the NBA playoffs has been able to complete a reversal.They don't think they can become the team that creates miracles, so the third game of the series is their "battle of life and death".

Going to Portland with a score of 2:0, Mavericks coach Carlisle warned the players not to be complacent. Although the team currently leads with a score of 2:0, it is hard to say that they just kept two home games.In the series, if you don't win on the road, you can't really take the lead. Even if you have home court advantage, if you hit the tiebreaker, then anything can happen.

It is not uncommon for a 2:0 lead to be reversed in the end. In the 2006 finals, the Mavericks won 2 games first and were defeated by their opponents for 4 games in a row and finally lost the championship.They don't want to repeat the same mistakes, they have great goals, and they don't want to consume too much energy in the first round.

On April 4, the third game of the first round of the playoffs between the Mavericks and the Trail Blazers started at the Rose Garden Arena, home of the Trail Blazers.For the Trail Blazers, this is a game that cannot be lost. From the eyes and body movements of the players before the game, it can be seen that they are all holding back their energy.

Trail Blazers fans are enthusiastic, they will work their way to cheer for the home team, and then hope to be able to successfully keep the home team.

Historical data shows that in the third game of the series, the home team has a greater probability of winning.Of course, this does not mean that the visiting Mavericks will definitely lose, but it will be very difficult to win this game.

There are many veterans in the Mavericks team, and they are used to the big wind and waves, so they naturally know when and under what circumstances they should do.

The Trail Blazers did not change the starting lineup in this game. Perhaps in the eyes of their coaching staff, there is no problem with this starting lineup.

As soon as this game came up, the Trail Blazers were like galloping wild horses, going up to their bodies and killing them.Their unsparing offense and defense made the Mavericks make mistakes again and again, and the offensive end frequently hit the iron.However, this method also affected their own offense. The offensive efficiency of the two teams in the first quarter was frighteningly low, and the combined score did not exceed 30 points, which shows the tragic scene.

But from the beginning of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers slowly took advantage of the court by virtue of their home court advantage.The difference between the two teams lies in the rotation lineup. The "Best Sixth Man" Jason Terry was targeted by the opponent in this game, and his offensive efficiency was very low; while the opponent's "Yellow Mamba" Brandon Roy showed great power and was in the offensive. Take whatever you want, not at all like a person who has been seriously injured.

In the end, with Roy's outstanding performance, the Trail Blazers narrowly beat the Mavericks at home, pulled back a victory, and rewritten the total score to 1:2.

Immediately afterwards, in the fourth game of the series between the two teams on the 24th, the Trail Blazers continued to rely on Roy's outstanding performance on the bench to narrowly beat the Mavericks again and tied the total score at 4:2!
From 2:0 to 2:2, it seems to be a flash, and the situation is completely different.As Mavericks coach Carlisle said: "In a series, when you don't win an away game, you can't really take the lead!"
