Legendary basketball manager

Dallas, American Airlines Center.

The Mavericks are currently undergoing daily training.

However, after the training ended, Nowitzki and Kidd kept everyone behind for a short closed-door meeting.

The purpose of the meeting is very simple, it is to give the players a "psychological massage", and discuss the strategy for the fourth game by the way.

"The coach has talked about a lot of tactics, but I still want to know if you have any other ideas."

"Now the big score is 3:0. We have already stepped into the abyss with one foot. Everyone can speak freely and speak out boldly if they have any ideas."

Nowitzki said straight to the point.

"To be honest, no matter how subtle the coach's tactical arrangement is, it will be difficult for us to block the Rockets' offensive."

"The third game was the closest we got to victory, but what did we rely on to win points in the first half? The Rockets felt cold, but once they warmed up in the second half, we couldn't hold back."

"I think our next game is to try to play our offensive content, and then take a gamble that the Rockets are not in good shape."

Terry's words were objective, but somewhat dejected.

It's hard to imagine that these words came from Terry, who has always been known for his self-confidence.

But none of the Maverick generals refuted him.

In the last game, the Mavericks players were indeed exhausted.

Leading by 18 points in the first half, the result was a 50+ in a single quarter in the third quarter...

Even if the Mavericks are not a team that is good at defense, this score is too exaggerated, and it is already a historical record.

The rocket's terrifying firepower also gave the Dallas Cowboys some psychological shadows.

"Is there a possibility that the Rockets' performance in the first half of the last game was indeed abnormal, but they also performed abnormally in the third quarter?"

"If the third quarter is the regular level of the Rockets, how can we continue the suspense of the game until the last moment?"

Seeing that everyone was depressed, Old Kidd hurriedly spoke out to enlighten them.

He spoke very well.

Instead of refuting Terry's argument, he raised a question.

After hearing this, everyone's eyes became brighter.

"Assuming that the fourth quarter is the normal level of competition between the two sides, then we are just a game away, and the gap is not very big!"

Chandler responded immediately.

"I think the biggest problem is that the Rockets have too many people playing. They can maintain a high intensity throughout the game, and we can only cope with it by shortening the rotation."

"So, we may compete with them in a certain quarter and even gain an advantage, but it is difficult to convert the advantage into a victory."

Caron Butler said helplessly.

This point can be said to be a problem that every opponent of the Rockets will encounter along the way.

The depth of the Rockets' bench is terrifying!

There are all-stars like Roy, supernovas like Oden, Jeremy Lin, and Griffin, and powerful players like Yi Jianlian and Tucker...

It's hard to imagine that these players will gather together and play as substitutes!

"This disadvantage is undeniable. The Rockets' lineup configuration is indeed better than ours."

"But to be honest, isn't our opponent the Lakers in the last round better equipped than us? Did we succeed in the reversal in the end?"

"Now everyone doesn't have to think too much. It's not what we're thinking about right now. We're thinking about defending our next home game now."

"If it's just to win the next game...is the disadvantage in the lineup still so important?"

Nowitzki said with bright eyes.

The nba is where miracles happen.

It may be difficult to have luck in the outcome of a series.

But if it's just the outcome of a game, the difference in strength sometimes won't be so obvious.

What Nowitzki has to do now is for his teammates to focus on the next game and fight for victory without any distractions!

"I...I see."

Butler nodded.

"According to the experience of the previous game, if we want to win, we must start off with a good offense."

"And every time we crash, it's because of poor offense."

"Jason...we need you to step up!"

Kidd looked at Terry and said.

Terry pursed his lips and nodded solemnly.

As the leader of the team, Nowitzki has done everything within his power.

In the first three games, the German chariot averaged 36.8 points, 10.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.

It can even be said that when Jordan came, it would be like this, and the score would be a few more points at most.

But Nowitzki played to this level, and the Mavericks were still in the third game... Terry, as the team's second scoring point, is bound to take responsibility.

In the first three games, he fell into a comprehensive disadvantage in the matchup with Curry.

At every technical level-catch&shoot shooting, attacking with the ball, hitting the basket... Curry has done better than Terry.

And Terry in the Mavericks is equivalent to a transmission.

In the playoffs before the Western Conference Finals, he was often able to lead his teammates to play shock waves when the team needed it.

Terry's "nerve knife" attribute is also a weapon for the Mavericks to boost morale!

But since the Western Conference Finals, the Jets have only nerves and no knives...

This is also an important reason why the Mavericks failed in the first two games and fell short for the third time.

"I'll adjust, trust me!"

Terry said solemnly.

In this kind of closed-door meeting between players, everyone has something to say, and there will be nothing hidden.

And if players make a promise at this moment, they will generally try their best to realize it.

The Maverick generals smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"Sure you can do it, brother."

Chandler laughed and patted Terry on the back as he spoke.

This closed-door meeting also ended in such a pleasant atmosphere.

............

Time flies, and another day passes in a blink of an eye.

Beautiful country time January 5, Dallas, American Airlines Center Arena.

The much-anticipated fourth game between the Rockets and the Mavericks is coming as scheduled!

Such an important game, CCTV will naturally not miss it.

"Hello viewers, welcome to watch the broadcast of NBA games brought to you by cctv-5."

"I'm Su Qun!"

"Hi everyone, I am your old friend, Zhang Weiping."

In the broadcast booth, two commentators opened as usual.

"Today brings you the Western Conference Finals—the Houston Rockets vs. Dallas Mavericks!"

"Director Zhang, can you briefly analyze this game for us?"

Su Qun asked.

"Okay! In the last game, both sides played a good half of the game, and the game was played until the last minute to decide the winner."

"Compared to the previous two games at the Toyota Center, the Mavericks have significantly improved since returning home."

"Of course we all support the Rockets, but in my opinion, I think the Mavericks still have a good chance of winning a game at home."

Zhang Weiping said with a smile.
