Chapter 207 Revenge Mavericks
Since the Mavericks transferred to Jason Kidd, their record has improved significantly.Until now, the Mavericks have always won more and lost less, and they have only lost ten games until now.

However, the Mavericks are quite chaotic now, the lineup changes frequently, and the starting substitutes cannot be fixed.Except for Dampier, Nowitzki and Jason Kidd, everyone else needs to rotate to start.

Not long ago, the Mavericks just completed a deal with the Wizards, trading Josh Howard for the Wizards' Caron Butler.Caron Butler's scoring ability is better than Josh Howard's. After all, Josh Howard is getting older and his statistics have declined.And as Josh Howard gets older, his risk of injury is also increasing. The Mavericks have to trade him for the championship. Otherwise, if an injury suddenly occurs, the Mavericks will have to find new helpers.

Sure enough, Josh Howard was injured after playing four games with the Wizards and was reimbursed for the season.It can be said that the Mavericks made a profit in this transaction, and they did not expect it to be like this. They can only rejoice that this transaction is too timely.

At the start of the game, Bynum and Dampier jumped the ball, and Bynum jumped the ball successfully.Fisher dribbled the ball across half court and handed the ball to Wu Di.

Wu Di caught the ball, stabilized a bit, and started to break through facing Caron Butler.

When the Mavericks defeated the Lakers, many media criticized the Lakers for adjusting their tactics and pushed Wu Di as the core of their tactics.In this game, Wu Di has a stronger revenge mentality than others. He wants to defeat the Mavericks and prove that he is the best organizer in the NBA.

Caron Butler is also an old opponent, and Wu Di doesn't take him seriously.It's not that Wu Di's eyes are higher than the top, but that Caron Butler was no match for him when he hadn't upgraded to a legendary general, and it's even more so now.

With a little force from Wu Di, he pushed Caron Butler away, and Caron Butler had nothing to do with Wu Di.After squeezing Caron Butler, Wu Di went straight to the inside, and Dampier immediately came up to defend.The Mavericks didn't do a good job defending the perimeter. Both Dampier and Nowitzki are slow-footed people who can't keep up with the defenders.

Dampier's footsteps were relatively slow, and Wu Di immediately stopped the jumper and hit two points.

Mavericks attack, Kidd wants to eat Fisher.Fisher tried his best to defend, but Kidd couldn't break through, so he passed the ball to Nowitzki.

At this time, Kobe, who was lying in ambush, rushed over and cut off the basketball.Wu Di grabbed the basketball and rushed forward.Wu Di and Kobe quickly rushed to the front court, and the Mavericks had only Caron Butler to follow.Wu Di threw the ball into the sky, Kobe followed suit and scored an alley-oop.

The Mavericks attacked, Kidd was a lot more cautious this time, and recruited Nowitzki to be his man.Kidd went inside, Gasol followed up, ready to block Kidd's layup at any time.Kidd's scoring ability is not strong, and he dared not attack, so he had to pass the ball to Nowitzki.

However, taking advantage of this effort, Wu Di had already switched defenses with Fisher, and Nowitzki faced Wu Di and shot directly.Wu Di successfully interfered, the basketball bounced out of the frame, and Gasol grabbed the rebound.

Wu Di immediately threw off Nowitzki and rushed forward, and Gasol made a long pass.Wu Di grabbed the ball and rushed to the basket for a dunk in a few steps.

Consecutively defended by the Lakers, the Mavericks' morale was a bit low.But the Mavericks didn't call a timeout. They have an experienced point guard who can make adjustments on the court.

But this game is not that Kidd did not make adjustments, but that the Lakers' defense is too strong.

Kidd once again played a pick-and-roll with Nowitzki, and the Lakers quickly completed the switch.Nowitzki passes the ball to Caron Butler, who catches the ball and faces Fisher for a shot.

Luck was not on the Mavericks' side. Fisher's interference with Caron Butler was not strong, but the goal still missed.

Gasol grabbed the rebound again.But Nowitzki stopped Wu Di firmly and did not let him break into a fast break.Bryant was also entangled, and instead of launching a fast break, he took the ball from Gasol and started playing positional warfare.

The Lakers' positional combat ability is also very strong. Kobe and Gasol completed a pick-and-roll, re-entered the inside, and completed a layup under Nowitzki's defense.

Opening 8:0, the Mavericks had to call a timeout.

This wave of attacks blinded the Mavericks, and they haven't recovered yet.Coach Rick Carlisle adjusted the Mavericks' tactics and boosted morale.

After the game was suspended, the Mavericks' offense improved a little.Kidd got rid of Fisher with the help of Caron Butler and went inside.Bynum came to fill the defense and had to let Dampier go.Kidd immediately passed the ball to Dampier, Dampier dunk.

The Lakers attacked, Wu Di and Kobe played a screen for each other on the outside, and then passed the ball to Kobe, who made a three-pointer.

The Mavericks scored a layup, Wu Di once again cooperated with Kobe on the outside, and Wu Di made a three-pointer.

The Lakers' offense was extremely smooth, and they didn't miss their first shot until the 5th minute.

Both Kobe and Wu Di had a very good touch. They fired consecutive shots from the outside and quickly pulled the score to 10 points.

Lakers fans can be regarded as addicted to watching. The Lakers scored 5 points in 20 minutes. According to this trend, the Lakers will definitely be able to get a high score in the first quarter.

But the fans were too happy, and the real scoring feast has not yet begun.

In the 6th minute, Kobe suddenly felt explosive, and shot a three-pointer directly against the defender, and made three shots in a row.

The Mavericks immediately adjusted their defensive strategy. If Kobe could not be defended, he would be able to end the game alone.

The Mavericks transferred Caron Butler to defend Kobe and wanted to use Caron Butler to limit Kobe.

Sure enough, Caron Butler used defense to limit Kobe. Caron Butler was taller than Kobe, and he was very successful in defending shots.

Kobe was restrained, he didn't make a hard shot, and passed the ball to Wu Di.Jason Terry, who switched to defend, has a strong offensive ability, but he is less than 1.9 meters tall. He can't defend Kobe's shots at all, let alone Wu Di.

Sean Marion started at the second position of the Mavericks, but Sean Marion didn't play today because he sprained his ankle and needed to rest for a few games.That's why the Mavericks will play Jason Terry to increase the team's offensive power.

But today Jason Terry became the Mavericks' surprise player, but instead became a loophole in the Mavericks' defense.

After hitting a three-pointer, Rick Carlisle had to call a timeout again and replace Jason Terry. If he didn't replace Jason Terry, the Mavericks would not have to wait until the second half and could just admit defeat.The Mavericks replaced Ruud Gooden, who is 208cm tall, 5cm taller than Wu Di. The Mavericks are going to use their height to limit the Lakers' shooting.
