Chapter 52 The Suns That Ended The Streak And The Mavericks Ended The Streak

Gao Tian looked at the complacent Ricky Davis, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Ricky, you played well! It seems that my blessing is very useful, don't forget to invite me to dinner!"

Ricky Davis patted his chest excitedly and said loudly, "Put it on me!"

In the past few minutes, he felt that he had returned to his peak. The continuous scoring, the respect of his teammates and the trust of the coach made him extremely proud!
It has been several years since I felt such an atmosphere. I really miss the days when I was in the Cavaliers!

But people always have to look forward, the past is the past, people, always have to look to the future!

Gao Tian started playing in the second quarter with a substitute. He still went to the basket more, or distributed to Ricky Davis on the outside. Under this style of play, the point difference gradually began to tie, and even Overtake.

Johnson couldn't bear it anymore, and quickly brought Nowitzki up, and the Mavericks took the initiative of the situation in an instant.

Just like this, you come and go, the fans watched the game with relish, but it was actually a tepid game, and soon it was the decisive moment of the fourth quarter.

Nowitzki averaged 36 minutes per game this season, but he has played almost 10 minutes in this game, and now there are 3 minutes before the game.

Johnson looked at the Mavericks who were still leading by [-] points and was still suppressing the sun on the field. He smiled proudly. In his eyes, Dirk was definitely the most powerful power forward in history, bar none!

This white big man is all hope for the Mavericks!
But the Suns are really tough, not at all like the Suns that were about to collapse at the most critical moment before. What this rookie brings to the Suns is a qualitative change.

But we don't have to worry about anything, Dirk Nowitzki said to himself in his heart as he shook his opponent for a layup and scored two points.

Because we have Dirk!

Nash felt that his old friend was really serious about hitting him. Seeing the blazing flames in his eyes, he knew he had to respond!
He used Stoudemire's pick-and-roll to pull his old friend out, to the three-point line, pretended to break through, made a lateral step shot, and hit a three-pointer!
Looking at the surprised Gao Tian, ​​he smiled embarrassedly.

This is the move he watched Gao Tian practice during training, and he tried to practice it himself, and found that this move was really useful.

Facing big men and defenders with slow lateral movement, as long as you shoot accurately, this is really a big killer!
In the next round, Nowitzki and Terry played a pick-and-roll again. Dirk received the ball and made a confident three-pointer and hit it!
Watching the game where the gods fought, the fans gave their warmest applause to their hero, Dirk Nowitzki.

Gao Tian wiped the sweat off his face, looked up at the timer, there were 2 minutes left, and it was still seven minutes away!
He received Nash's pass without thinking too much about it, and he took a European step and swayed Dampier for a layup and hit a layup, which was five points away.

Nowitzki felt Stoudemire's huge strength and couldn't help frowning. He pushed Stoudemire with his lower limbs, then directly changed his body and wiped Stoudemire, and made a soft shot.

Nash was not affected at all, and directly assisted Gao Tian with a quick serve and made a layup.

With 1 minute left, still five points behind!
Nowitzki looked at the tense game and held his breath in his heart. This game must be won, otherwise the team will undoubtedly encounter doubts and malicious speculation for the team after losing five games in a row.

He just wanted to turn around after receiving the ball, but Dio stepped forward to block his way in time.Gao Tian took the opportunity to take out the ball, and directly assisted Nash with an easy layup and scored two points.

Jason Terry saw that the Suns were directly guarding Dirk Nowitzki, so he rushed in and made a layup, and the point difference came to five points again!
There are still 30 seconds left, Gao Tian knows that he has to race against time, otherwise there is really no chance.

He quickly dribbled up the court, ignored Josh Howard, ignored the luck, and raised his hand to hit the first three-pointer of the game.

Jason Terry was wasting time, and when there were five seconds left in the attack clock, he gave Nowitzki directly and pulled aside.

Stoudemire understood the criticality of this defense. He watched Nowitzki shoot without moving. He didn't believe that he was still shooting!
Nowitzki hesitated for half a second, turned his back to Stoudemire, and then made another shot fake to make Stoudemire lose his center of gravity. Dior watched him come in and sighed inwardly. He could only beat Stoudemire when he got up. foul.

Nowitzki started the season shooting around 90 percent from the free throw line, which made fouling look like a dangerous thing to do, but Diaw had to, and it was really an easy two to come in. separated.

There is still hope for free throws, what if?
The first ball was hit firmly!
For the second free throw, Nowitzki took a deep breath, adjusted, and shot.

The strength was a little stronger, and it hit the basket directly on the neck!

Recently, Stoudemire felt his finger touch the ball, and when he was excited to accept the rebound, a big hand directly grabbed the ball and pressed it into the basket!

D'Antoni, who witnessed everything, shook his head, it was too fast!
When everyone's attention was on the ball, Nowitzki took two steps to the basket and flew directly after the shot, which was a dunk!
The Suns have eight seconds left, but are still five points behind!

The Suns served the ball from the sideline. Gao Tian was entangled by Josh Howard and Jason Terry. Nash was also blocked. It seemed that five seconds would pass. Finally, Ricky Davis missed a three-pointer after receiving the ball. Nowitzki grabbed the rebound and the Suns lost hope.

In the end, the Suns lost 108:113 regrettably. The best player of the game was Dirk Nowitzki, who shot 52 times with a 25% shooting rate, scored 45 points, and won the best player of the game!
D'Antoni looked at the team's defeat without any expression. He knew that the players' condition was very poor after the Spurs game. crooked.

What I heard the most throughout the game was the sound of the two striking iron. There was no way to do this, but to adjust it back slowly.

You guys got a bargain!

D'Antoni looked at the smug Johnson, and he smiled disdainfully.

When Gao Tian hugged Nowitzki, he heard him say gently: "Gao, you are the most powerful rookie I have ever seen. You are really great. I look forward to our next match!"

"Thank you, Dirk, you are one of my favorite players, and I am looking forward to the next match!"

Gao Tian has a wish. He plans to collect star jerseys. He is very proud to think that he can get these star jerseys that he dreamed of before!
It's a pity that I can't show off to my brothers in the previous life!

The collection that cannot be shown off to others immediately loses part of the fun, but it is still very meaningful. When he asked Nowitzki to exchange jerseys, Nowitzki happily agreed.

I have Nash's No. 13 jersey, Kobe's No. 24 jersey, and now I have Nowitzki's No. 41 jersey. Wait, why do I seem to have forgotten who to ask for the jersey?

A big dull man in the distance smiled...
