Legendary basketball manager

"Duang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.

There was no miracle, and the point difference was temporarily fixed at 10 points.

During the intermission, the players of the two teams were on the bench, showing completely different states.

On the Rockets side, the players basically had a relaxed expression.

The two core players—Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady, both got enough rest time, are gearing up now, waiting for the chance to play.

In contrast, the Mavericks.

Nowitzki and Chandler, the two cores of offense and defense, were both panting heavily at this time, with fatigue visible on their faces.

No way, the Mavericks' inside reserves are relatively weak.

Once they rest, the point difference may be widened at once.

But the problem now is that Nowitzki, as the main attack point, has reached his physical limit.

During the early part of the second quarter, he is bound to recover his strength off the court.

The difficulty facing the Mavericks is how to keep the 10-point gap from being further expanded in the next few minutes, not to mention narrowing the point difference.

Because once the Rockets continue to expand the point difference, the game is likely to be spent!

The Mavericks can no longer afford such consequences.

In this "Win.or.go.home" game, there's no turning back for the Mavericks!

"Jason, you must play aggressively in the transition after a while."

Carlisle looked at Terry and said seriously.

The Jets rested for a while, and they were in good shape at this time.

And he, the team's No. [-] scorer, is the biggest reliance for the Mavericks' transition.

"Don't worry, coach, they must feel that they have the chance to win now, and our chance is coming!"

Terry said confidently.

In the seventh game against the Lakers in the last round, the Mavericks were also cornered.

At that time, it was Terry's deafening speech that awakened the fighting spirit of his teammates.

Today, this task fell on his shoulders again.

Seeing his teammates' eyes falling on him, Terry cleared his throat and said:

"Brothers, you shouldn't have forgotten the Rockets' outburst before the start of the series, right?"

"If we don't win this game today, they'll put the beep on!"

"What will this lead to? We will be written in history, but we will be written in history as losers, as backdrops."

"Think about our hard work this season, and the result is such a reward, are you willing?"

Terry looked around at the crowd and asked loudly.

At this time, the technology desk has already sounded the reminder that the pause has ended.

But the Mavericks did not set foot on the court, but quietly listened to Terry's speech.

"Of course I'm not reconciled!"

Chandler responded with fire in his eyes.

"You can lose, but not in this way!"

Barea said seriously.

At this stage of the series, many Mavericks players have accepted the fact that they are weaker than the Rockets.

What they are fighting for now is to take one breath... They must not be defeated like this!

Other players also gave Terry a positive response.

"Okay, now we still have three quarters to change the situation."

"Ready to go?"

With that said, Terry put his hand among the crowd.

"o. Three!"

"Go. Mavs!!!!"

The slogans of the Mavericks players were so loud that all the fans at the scene heard them.

After feeling the passion of the players, the Mavericks fans also regained their fighting spirit and started to cheer and cheer for the team again.

During the Rockets' offensive round, the entire American Airlines Center had only a uniform slogan:

"Let's. go. Mavs!!!"

"Let's. go. Mavs!!!"

"Let's. go. Mavs!!!"

......

Inspired by the fans, the Mavericks successfully defended against the Rockets' offense.

Roy's breakthrough layup was interfered by the Mavericks' backup center Heywood and failed to hit.

Kidd, who returned to the court, had quick eyes and quick hands, and received the rebound.

He advanced quickly with the ball, while watching the six directions, constantly looking for opportunities.

Finally, Kidd heard the thunder in a silent place, and found Peja who ran out of the space.

After receiving the ball, the Croatian striker made a decisive three-pointer...

!

24:31, this ball is crucial for the Mavericks.

The Rockets' offensive round.

Curry lobbed the ball to the basket and Oden received the ball smoothly.

However, Haywood, who defended him, was not a vegetarian.

Although his talent is average, he is very good in terms of tonnage and strength, and he is a typical "black and hard" blue-collar.

Au climbed to the top twice and found it difficult to move forward, so he chose to turn around and hook.

Basketball bounces out of the hoop...

Haywood protected the rebound and passed the ball to Kidd.

The Mavericks strike back again!

In the fast break, Kidd once again showed the demeanor of a passing master, a freehand pass behind the back, and successfully deceived the Rockets.

Terry, who followed up on the right, made a decisive shot after receiving the ball...

"Shu~"

Basketball hollow into the net!

At 27:31, after two three-pointers, the Mavericks quickly narrowed the point difference to 4 points!

Curry put his hands on his waist and spat out the braces.

After receiving a pass from Oden, he quickly advanced across the half.

After the start of the second quarter, the Mavericks asked Kidd to defend Curry.

Although the old Kidd is not as fast as Terry, he has more experience and more skilled defensive skills.

At this time, facing Curry's dribbling combo like a butterfly wearing flowers, Kidd was unmoved.

His attention has been focused on Curry's central axis, and the fake moves are directly filtered out by him.

However, while Kidd was waiting for Curry to make a real move, Mengshen suddenly took a step back, and then decisively shot a three-pointer...

Curry's shot speed is too fast!

Even Kidd was unprepared for a moment, and in the end he could only raise his hand symbolically to interfere.

After the basketball left Curry's fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

27:34, this is an Answer.ball!

"Don't panic, the momentum is still with us, just continue with the defense just now."

Terry immediately spoke up to boost morale.

The Maverick generals nodded upon hearing this.

In the transition between offense and defense, Terry used the screen to go out from the baseline and receive the ball outside the three-point line.

After getting the ball, he put on a three-threat pose against Curry.

Curry's hands are outstretched and his concentration is intense.

Terry stepped on tentatively, but failed, so he could only raise his hand to signal the inside line to pick and roll.

Following the cover, Terry got rid of Curry's defense one step at a time, and then faced Griffin with a resolute three-pointer...

Come in too!

31: 34!

"Hey~ After the second quarter, Terry felt too hot. Together with Kidd, he carried the Mavericks on his shoulders."

Zhang Weiping commented in a timely manner.

"Nowitzki can finally take a rest off the court with peace of mind."

Su Qun also sighed.

Three minutes into the second quarter, the Mavericks maintained such a good momentum that Nowitzki won the longest rest period since the series.

But soon, the situation of the game changed again...
