Chapter 57: No matter how good the bench is, it is afraid of the sword

For ordinary fans of the NBA, the excitement of the game sometimes does not matter the score, as long as there is a fierce confrontation, there are wonderful goals, there are dunks, there are blocks, but for the fans of the home team, their team is behind, even if the game is exciting, it is difficult to satisfy them.

So once a team falls into a slump, the attendance of the stadium will naturally decline, except for some die-hard fans, most of the spectators come to watch the game in search of a chance to relax, and now the pace of social life is getting faster and faster, and people want to enjoy happiness.

The Kings used to have a bad attendance on the court at all, which is related to their sluggish results, but since the arrival of Adelman, the Kings have gradually become one of the teams with a relatively high attendance rate in the West, although most teams do not rely on court attendance to make profits, but after all, this is a sign of the team's prosperity, so even if the Spurs play ugly, they are still one of the teams with the highest attendance in the West.

Today was supposed to be Christmas, and most Kings fans wanted to see a victory, especially against the mighty Mavericks, but the game went on less than satisfying for them, and the team was always behind, and if it weren't for the outburst of substitutes and the slump of the Mavericks' bench players, the game might have lost its suspense at halftime.

Adelman is indeed a good coach, but no matter how good a coach is, there are times when he is negligent, he made a big mistake today, ignoring the overall effect of the Mavericks and expanding Liu Han's personal factors, which may be related to his experience with the Warriors back then, Liu Han can always get particularly high points in games with the Warriors, which makes Adelman quite embarrassed, and now Adelman attaches a little too much importance to Liu Han.

At halftime, Adelman tried to change the team's tactics, but he found that there was really no good way, and the single defense of Liu Han was ineffective, and the rest of the Mavericks were in a burst of state, which once made Adelman fall into confusion, he was deeply trapped in the small circle of Princeton tactics, and always wanted to use Princeton to limit Liu Han's play, but Princeton's tactics are generally an offensive tactic, and defense is not what he is good at.

After the start of the third quarter of the game, Liu Han did not appear in the lineup for the first time, Nelson directly put on a strange formation, he put Odom in charge of playing point guard and replaced the unsatisfactory performance in the first half of Korver, this young man still made Nelson quite satisfied in training, but his psychological state seems to have some problems, Nelson feels that he should practice this kid well.

The reason why Liu Han sat on the bench is simple, he will next lead the team's bench lineup against the Kings' bench "gang".

After the start of the game, although the offensive efficiency of the Mavericks decreased due to the lack of Liu Han, the team's operation was still normal, and because the height of this lineup was higher than that of the Kings, it still had a big advantage.

The Kings still had no problem attacking after the start of the third quarter of the game, but the defense never stopped the Mavericks' multi-point offense, and the slow movement speed of the two interior lines allowed the Kings to only shrink the defense, but the Mavericks are not the general team that relies on the interior to attack, and their three-point and counterattack are the Mavericks' sharp weapons.

The two teams played back and forth in the first seven minutes of the third quarter, and the difference in the score remained unchanged at about seven points, but Liu Han kept sitting on the bench and asked Adelman to be careful.

After a fierce seven-minute game, the two sides gradually switched to the bench, Liu Han took the lead in the middle of the third quarter, and Adelman did not replace Gerrard? Wallace, after all, is the only player on the team who can keep up with Liu Han.

Kings fans expect their bench players to play an offensive climax again like they did in the second quarter of the first half, but the reality has given them a painful answer, no matter how good the bench is, they are afraid of kitchen knives, not to mention that Liu Han is still a sword stained with the blood of the enemy.

Liu Han stared at Bobby in defense? Jackson, restricting others from making moves and letting Gerald go? Wallace.

After the first half of the game, most of the Mavericks saw that Gerrard? Wallace's flaws, he is a very rough player, excellent defense but almost no outside projection, the only point that can score is the secondary offense or the violent dunk that breaks into the interior, but now there is no shortage of players with excellent defense in the Mavericks lineup bench, Liu Han not to mention, Josh Howard is also a guy who plays actively, and Danny who has returned from injury? Fortson, although he was knocked out by Malone elbow that time, but after returning to the game, Fortson still played badly, with these three people, the Mavericks don't worry about being broken through to the interior when they are defending.

And after Liu Han strangled Bobby Jackson, the initiator of the Kings' offense, the Kings' bench bandits lost the rhythm of the offense, while the Mavericks had a huge advantage in the face of chaos, that is, Liu Han, now Liu Han is almost recognized as the No. 1 offensive player in the league, and such players are like fish in water in the face of chaos.

With five minutes left in the third quarter, the Kings nearly used up all of their timeouts, but the margin was widened by the Mavericks.

After the Mavericks scored 13 three-pointers in the first half, the Mavericks hit 7 three-pointers again in the third quarter, and Liu Han alone hit 5 three-pointers, and his 5 three-pointers were only made in the second half of the third quarter.

Liu Han led the team to hit 24 three-pointers in a single game during his time with the Lakers, which also broke the SuperSonics' record of 20 three-pointers in a single game in the 95-96 season, and now the Mavericks have tied the SuperSonics' record and have a chance to break the Lakers' record of 24 three-pointers.

By the end of the third quarter, the seven-point gap had widened to 23 points, and the Kings scored just six points in the second half of the third quarter.

After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Liu Han did not go to rest, and the Mavericks directly changed to the starting lineup, intending to directly lock the ending of the game, and the Kings were not willing to lose, they sent all the main forces to deal with the Mavericks.

But in Brad? When Miller left the court with six fouls and the Mavericks extended the margin to 27 points, the Kings finally surrendered.

In the end, the Mavericks defeated the Kings 127-102 to maintain their first place in the league, while Liu Han still maintained his role as Adelman's "nemesis", which frustrated the coach.
