After looking at the Mavericks' lineup, Jackson said: "I'm going to defend Terry, Sean, let's pay attention to the change, Corey is eyeing Howard, Zhou, you have to help defend at any time." ”

The warriors attacked first, and Zhou Xuan thought about the way to play while dribbling the ball. Even if Kidd is a pass, there must be someone to make up for it, and Kidd will also use the rotation position to defend others, which is not a good way, he has tried it before. The defense of "making up for the dead" is also something he needs to accumulate and improve slowly.

After a bit of nagging from Nelson Sr. during the break, Margeti and Jackson stopped standing stupidly on the perimeter, making an off-ball screen on the side to block Terry.

Howard switched to Jackson, and Zhou Xuan sent the ball to Margety. With an obvious misplaced chance, Margeti opted to break through with the ball and didn't think about passing as soon as he lowered his head. But this time his opponent was Terry, and it didn't matter if he didn't look up, he leaned in and crashed out of the space and rushed inside.

Dampier restarted in the second half and stepped up towards Margeti, who would have easily scored if he had passed the ball to Jackson or Zhou Xuan and had given a lead to Randolph. But Margeti doesn't often make this kind of right-to-data choice, so he rushed forward and went head-to-head with Dampier.

Billy Dampier was not afraid of anyone, jumped up and flipped Margeti to the ground with the ball, of course fouled.

Margeti has his own way of helping the team, and the old Nelson doesn't expect him to be an all-round warrior, if he can shoot and pass suddenly, it will not be a second-rate star with an annual salary of tens of millions, but James.

Margeti hit both free throws, and the Warriors took the lead again. 54 to 53.

The Mavericks kept blocking and passing, and after the worst Terry missed a jumper, the rebound was picked up by Margety.

The Warriors attacked, Zhou Xuan and Randolph played a blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation, and distributed the ball to Marion in the bottom corner. At the same time, Jackson covered Margeti, who cut to the basket.

Marion and Nash have been partners for a few seasons, and although they don't have many assists, they know a lot about the open cuts in positional attack, attracting Dampier to defend and hoist the ball inside. Terry was knocked away without much resistance, and Margeti leaped to his feet and scored with a one-handed dunk. 56 to 53.

The Mavericks attacked, and Kidd was still on the perimeter, passing the ball to Nowitzki, but the Warriors made some changes, no longer containing Nowitzki, but defending him and Terry alone, and guarding everyone else. This change made the Mavericks lose their offensive rhythm a little. Nowitzki didn't feel good in the first half, and in the second half, the offensive confidence was not so full, he singled Jackson, turned around and missed a jumper, and Margeti grabbed a backcourt rebound.

Margeti starts with Josh? Howard competed, he thought he was not inferior to Howard in all aspects, but he was never selected as an All-Star, he didn't play well in the first half, and he didn't want to make his opponent arrogant anymore.

People always like to regard people who are about the same strength as themselves as opponents. If you are too strong, you can only admire, and if you are too weak, you don't take it seriously. If two similar people are treated differently, they are envious, jealous and hateful. Randolph felt awkward when he thought of Boozer and Stoudamire being selected as All-Stars, and he was ignored, and this is the reason.

If Howard and Margety were to go head-to-head, he really wouldn't be able to beat Margety.

The Mavericks attacked, and after a few passes, Howard broke through and scored a layup, and the Mavericks also scored in the second half. 56 to 55.

The Warriors' offense is still simplified, this time Zhou Xuan chose to break through on the left side, passed the ball to Marion, and after the misplacement, Marion hung inside, and Randolph singled Kidd to turn and shoot.

The situation is gradually being mastered by the Warriors. The Warriors don't have Ellis, the last three swingmen, and the pick-and-roll is more powerful. The Mavericks are in trouble offensively because the Warriors' swingman has a clear physical advantage in the pick-and-roll, unlike Terry, who is not afraid of misalignment. After the misalignment, Marion can still keep up with the speed, and he is better at defending the outside than the inside.

Dampier is still the object of being emptied, as long as he goes out to cover, he is the life of being emptied. After five minutes of play, Carlisle was forced to replace Dampier with Buss, who moved faster and could shoot.

However, Buss didn't make much of a difference in the Mavericks' defense this time, and the Warriors played easier, and the ball went straight to the left low post for Randolph. It's like the last series in which Millsap defended Randolph and could only hope that the fat man didn't shoot well.

Bath's single defense is good, and he has strength and speed, but after all, he is only 203CM, which is still the height of wearing shoes, and Randolph is the least afraid of this, and he will shoot with a little space, and he is very accurate.

Randolph dominated the game in the third quarter, scoring 16 points and four rebounds.

Kidd can defend against Margeti on the perimeter, and it is not good to defend against Randolph after blocking and dislocation. Nowitzki and Randolph are old rivals, neither of them can guard against the other, and the offensive end always blows each other. In this quarter, Nowitzki also exerted his power under the premise that no one was trapped, scoring 13 points in a single quarter and helping the team bite the score.

75-68, the Warriors led by seven points.

"Ellis sat off the floor for the entire quarter and the Warriors didn't have any obvious weaknesses on the defensive end, and as long as they didn't have two small men on the floor together, their defense would be great," Barkley said. But Mavericks guards Barria and Terry have to get one, otherwise no one can break through with the ball. Howard is also more likely to shoot and score after receiving the ball. ”

"Now the Mavericks are in a bit of an awkward situation, and to strengthen the offense you have to have holes on the defensive end," Smith said. The Nuggets have become stronger this year, changing from the No. 2 starter to Deng Tai? Jones started with two defensive guards on the perimeter, which worked better than offensive guards, and the Mavericks didn't have such people. Kidd can certainly defend the number two, but Terry's defense can't match Billups. As for Barria, I don't know if Coach Lu Dao will let him play. ”

Carlisle was thinking about that too. Barria is a special player, it is difficult for opponents to prevent his breakaway, and he can shoot the ball, but the defense is too poor. Terry has been playing for a long time, and if he doesn't let Barria play for a while, "The Jets" don't know how effective they can be in the fourth quarter. And Antoine? Wright's offense was too poor, his defense was average, and Carlisle didn't want to use it.

After thinking about it, Carlisle said: "Jose (Barria), you can play in a while, break through and attack or divide the ball yourself." Others compress the defense and don't let them burst into the basket easily. ”

With Barria's stature, he can play 20 minutes per game in the regular season, which is already very important.

The old Nelson is much easier to arrange the lineup, the only thing he needs to use his brain is how to arrange the lineup so that his subordinates will not have opinions, such as Ellis has been resting for too long. For a defender who has just signed a multi-million dollar annual salary, this is depressing enough.

"Monta, you play the number 1 position, and Corunna (Azubuuk), Stephen (Jackson), Corey (Margeti), Ronnie (Turiaf) ......"

Randolph was also out of the game, and at this time he was replaced by Turyaf to strengthen the interior defense. Marghetti made a cameo in the No. 4 position, and he did not suffer a loss against Basley. It seems that the score is about the same, but the actual Warriors still have spare energy, and the stamina of the main players is properly distributed. And not letting Ellis and Randolph play together can maximize the attack power of the two.

Before going on the pitch, Nelson Sr. said to everyone: "I believe you all have the quality, and at this point, we have only one goal first, and that is to win. Forget the stats, forget about individual performances, play to win. Pass the ball to the most appropriate and easy place to score! ”

In the second quarter, Barria played better than Ellis and proved himself. Ellis sat off the court for a while, thinking about how to play more efficiently. Ellis couldn't start in the team, Ellis admitted it, but the benches couldn't play efficiently, which he couldn't tolerate.

This season, his shooting percentage has decreased compared to last season, and if he is blown up by Barria, how can he be worthy of the team's big contract? People say he's rubbish and the fans will approve of it.

When he came on the court, Ellis looked at Barria, his eyes were on fire, and his heart was shouting. "Blow this little guy up, blow him up."

Ellis quickly launched a wild attack, and after blocking and dismantling, he didn't return passes to Bass and Dampier, and just relied on his speed to break through and shoot. The tactics that the Mavericks wanted to see, the Warriors also began to use.

Carlisle let Dampier play, the purpose is to resist inside, Randolph was too arrogant in the last quarter, to prevent him from attacking with his back, Dampier is the most suitable. In the 2006 finals, he prevented the death of "Big Shark" O'Neal.

But the Warriors became Ellis's main attacker, and the Mavericks' previous arrangement was in vain. Jackson was on the court and also retained a playmaking point. When Ellis broke through, he passed out of the line, and Jackson made a second play.

Zhou Xuan was not there, but the warriors still played very patiently, gave up the fast attack, and kept playing positional battles, the score was ahead, and the Mavericks were more anxious than them. The more anxious you are, the lower your shooting percentage will be. Kidd, the Mavericks' offensive organization is also a little messy, and after the blocking, it mainly relies on the singles of Barria and Howard. Bath was majestic in the first half and was restrained in the second.

Wright came on to strengthen the defense at the No. 2 position, and formed a double swingman with Howard, which didn't play much. Azubuke doesn't cut or break through and stays on the baseline as a three-point shooting spot that attracts defense.

Wright helped his teammate pack Ellis once, but Azubuuk didn't relent, received Ellis's ball, and hit a three-pointer in the open position.

After 5 minutes of play, the difference widened to 17 points.

Zhou Xuan was cheering for his teammates on the sidelines, he was not the protagonist on the field today, but his teammates opened it, and he was also very excited. He hopes to eliminate the Mavericks as soon as possible and reach the Western Conference Finals. If his teammates can step up and score every game, he will play with ease.

Old Nelson was also very satisfied with the disciple's performance, the calf topped three quarters, and the weakness was still exposed, that is, the inside line. Dampier, a guy with an annual salary of tens of millions, is really no better than Bass with a base salary.
