In fact, the gap between those supergiants and these second- and third-tier stars is here.

Instability.

They may feel good for the first few minutes, but after a while, the feel is gone.

They can't be like a supergiant, as long as they don't make mistakes in every game, they can almost score 20 or 30 points or something.

They tend to make people's eyes shine, but after they turn on, they can't maintain this rhythm, and there is a feeling of sudden malaise......

Assuming they can maintain that rhythm or even become a norm, then they are the new superstars.

That is, supergiant.

But unfortunately, this step is very difficult to cross, and it requires not only your personal effort and diligence, but also a little talent....... There are too few people who say that they can rise just by working hard and can reach the peak of life to marry Bai Fumei......

To succeed, you need 90% hard work, plus 10% talent.

Effort is important, but talent is just as important.

One is indispensable.

Xu Xuan scored a total of 22 points in the first half, 22 points, 5 assists, and 4 rebounds, and was the highest scorer in the game.

In addition to him, Lu Wei also scored in double figures, scoring 17 points at halftime.

On the Mosaic side, the highest scorer was Hadaden, who scored 18 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds in the half.

Look, Rao was 4-of-4 from the field with Gordon in the first quarter, with a 100% three-point shooting rate, and he still wasn't the highest scorer on Mosaic's side.

What's with?

Didn't shoot the shots?

No, Gordon had six shots in the second quarter, which was definitely not a small number of shots, but he only scored five points.

If he still hits like he did in the first quarter, will it still be like this?

Not at all.

In the locker room, Frank briefly set up his tactics and left.

The second half of the game begins.

On the Lakers' side, Xu Xuan is still on the court, Mosaic's side, Gordon went down to rest, Ariza and Anderson are back, and Harden is still on the court.

Xu Xuan held the ball on the outside, Yi Jian sent a cover, Xu Xuan took the ball and entered the penalty area, which immediately attracted Capela's supplementary defense.

He didn't continue to cut, and against Capela's defense, he turned his back to take the ball and pushed towards the basket.

Xu Xuan's penalty area singles immediately attracted the help of other Mosaic players, and Anderson pounced.

Xu Xuan saw the opportunity, made a ground-hitting pass, and passed to the outside.

Ingram is completely empty, and this is a pretty good opportunity.

But after receiving the ball? Ingram's jump shot on the spot was badly off? smashed directly on the rebound, and was just picked up by Anderson, who rushed into the restricted area to make up for the defense.

Immediately after the throw, Ingram raised his hand to signal that the ball was his problem.

The Lakers' offense failed, and Ingram missed his open shot.

After Mosaic got the rebound, he immediately fought back.

Anderson gives the ball to Harden? Harden rushes to the front court with the ball? No stops? Straight to the basket? Complete the layup.

65 to 69.

A lightning counterattack? Mosaic scored again.

And Harden's layup also sparked cheers from the fans again.

Lakers backcourt serve? Frank Vogel shouted twice from the sidelines, roughly? Draw the team's attention to the mosaic counterattack? Is that the goal just now? Harden's counterattack was too easy.

Xu Xuan made an OK gesture to the sidelines, and then personally held the ball in the backcourt and advanced to the frontcourt.

It's the same way of playing, but this time, the Lakers made a mistake.

After Xu Xuan and Yi Jian blocked and dismantled, they passed a measure to the bottom line in advance, but Yang Shaoxia's running position was a step slower, and the ball flew directly out of the bottom line.

Blunder! Xu Xuan shook his head helplessly.

On the commentary bench, Reggie Miller thought: "Xu Xuan's pass is a little bit of a matter of course, he can continue to impact the interior with the help of the pick-and-roll, but he seems to want to cooperate with his teammates too much and give assists to his teammates." ”

Another offensive failure, Mosaic seized the opportunity and played another wave of fast offense, or Harden, an outside chase three-pointer, successfully hit, Yang Shaoxia's defense looked very weak in front of Harden's rhythm.

After that three-point shot, the score became 65-72, and the Lakers trailed by seven points.

Frank walked to the sideline again, this time without speaking, just crossed his waist and watched how the Lakers played the offense.

Xu Xuan continued to take the ball in the backcourt, he had already thought about this attack, the continuous attack was unfavorable, and he had to score, Frank went to the sidelines to supervise the battle, which also showed this, if the Lakers failed to attack again, maybe Frank would call a timeout.

And Xu Xuan's idea of this ball is to do it alone.

Ingram missed a ball and was counterattacked by Mosaic, Xu Xuan made a mistake in passing the ball to Nick Young, and was hit by Mosaic with a quick attack, so Xu Xuan simply didn't pass the ball.

Holding the ball to the frontcourt, Mosaic continued to defend Xu Xuan with Harden.

De Shuai thinks simply, I'll use Harden to disgust you, I don't switch defenses, Harden is enough.

When other teams play the Lakers, they will generally switch positions to defend Xu Xuan, and rarely use point guards to defend.

But Mosaic is different, Mosaic point guard is Harden, and Harden originally played the No. 2 position, his height and body are not weaker than Xu Xuan, and there is no physical disadvantage.

Control to the frontcourt, Xu Xuan took advantage of Randle's blocking and dismantling to go inside, Anderson switched to Xu Xuan, Xu Xuan continued to break through, although Ingram's side was empty again, but he didn't think about passing the ball this ball, but suddenly accelerated, a dexterous change of direction directly threw off Harden, and rushed into the penalty area.

Capela made up for it again, but Xu Xuan still didn't pass the ball, and made a layup before Capela made up the defense.

The basketball smashes the board and bounces into the basket.

67 to 72, two points in hand.

After scoring, Xu Xuan immediately beckoned his teammates to retreat, Mosaic has played several fast attacks in succession, and the Lakers have also learned a lesson, Xu Xuan was the first to turn back to defense, and other teammates quickly retreated to the backcourt.

After Xu Xuan scored a single goal, there was also a burst of admiration on the commentary seat, and Kenny Smith said: "Xu Xuan's choice of this goal is right, don't always think about cooperating with your teammates, you still have to score first when necessary." ”

Reggie Miller also nodded: "Indeed, when Xu Xuan scores, the center of gravity of Mosaic's defense will be tilted to Xu Xuan, so that the offense of other Lakers players will be relaxed." ”

On the court, Mosaic's offense, Harden singled Xu Xuan, Xu Xuan stopped, and then Harden chose to pass, it was Anderson who received the ball, adjusted a step after receiving the basketball, and then a mid-range pull-out jumper, and hit it again with a bang.

67 to 74.

"This time, the Houstonians are very efficient offensively, and Harden and Anderson are scoring in a row."

The Lakers' offense, Xu Xuan came to hold the ball again again, took the ball with his back in the middle distance, and after advancing two steps, he turned over and made a jumper, and with a bang, the basketball obediently drilled into the basket, and the offense was completed, and the point difference became 69-74, and Mosaic still had a 5-point lead.

Harden took the ball to the front court, and in the face of Xu Xuan's defense, Harden felt hot, and after a reverse run, he received the ball again, and faced Xu Xuan's defense again.

Bang, the shot hit the iron and didn't go in.

Yi Jian, who was on the inside, grabbed the rebound in a row, and the Lakers advanced quickly and almost hit a wave of fast breaks.

Mosaic's defense is still very fast, their whole squad is very high, but also very dynamic and fast.

Failing to play a fast break, the Lakers stabilized, passing the ball continuously from the outside, looking for opportunities.

Frank stood on the sidelines and nodded, his state just now was a little unstable, but under Xu Xuan's organization, he quickly recovered.

Although the difference is still 5 points behind, the gap is actually not that big.

The Lakers' attack, after the continuous blocking and dismantling of the outside line, Yi Jian responded with a high position, and a pass was passed to the three-point line, Russell received the ball and shot, and hit a three-point shot!

72 to 74, the difference is only 2 points.

After the score was tied, De Shuai also stood up, walked to the sideline and clapped his hands, signaling his players to speed up the tempo.

Harden got the coach's instructions and immediately sped up, Randle made up in front of Wei Shao, Harden did not stop, and directly forced a change of direction to break through Randle's defense.

After entering the inside, the layup was interfered with by Yi Jianlian, who turned around and won the rebound, and then passed the ball to Xu Xuan.

After controlling the ball, Xu Xuan advanced quickly by himself, while looking at the position of his teammates around him.

“wow!!!!”

"It's coming!!"

Barkley from the commentary desk had already shouted.

The whole team of the mosaic ran towards their own half of the court as fast as possible.

They themselves are born to play fast break, and they are also one of the best teams in the league to play fast break, and this kind of turnovers are counterattacked is something they don't want to see.

But how could Xu Xuan let go of this kind of fast attack.

Harden couldn't keep up with him at this point.

As I said before, Harden is not a player who is known for his speed, he is more like the 077 of the later generations, his speed is not very fast, but the rhythm is good and scary.

After Xu Xuan turned around and passed Harden, there was only one Ariza left in the Mavericks halfcourt who quickly returned to the basket.

As soon as he took two steps after half court, Xu Xuan saw Ariza defending the basket, so he began to dribble frantically to adjust the rhythm.

At a time when everyone thought he was going to challenge Ariza's under-the-basket defense with a layup.

Xu Xuan dribbled to the right side at an angle of 45 degrees outside the three-point line and jumped to the rhythm.

This is another unguarded conversion three.

In the current basketball perception of all fans, this kind of superstar fast break is one-on-one, and there are only two options, either to score a layup, or to cause a foul to go to the free throw line.

No one thought that Xu Xuan would come again.

Outside the three-point line, no one interferes.

Bend the bow and arrow.

Aim for the bull's-eye.

Xu Xuan leaned forward and shot and sent the basketball.

The sudden stop and pull up in the dribble did not affect Xu Xuan's rhythm, and even the body raised a trace of arc-

The basketball was very hurried through a not wonderful arc.

"!!Shh

A hollow into the net.

75 to 74!

As soon as the goal was scored, the Lakers bench and the die-hard fans who came to Dallas to support the Lakers cheered again, and everyone began to scream.

Harden, Ariza, and Anderson all looked at Xu Xuan blankly.

The phrase "fake" can express their inner feelings at the same time.

Frank's calm face on the sidelines was captured by the cameras and sent to the eyes of fans around the world.

After De Shuai saw this goal, he was first angry, then stunned, then helpless, and finally shook his head, which was also photographed in close-up.

"Haha, the way Frank looks shows that he's not surprised by the ball."

"Yes, as a head coach, he knows the players best, and he must have known that Xu will have such a choice."

"And D'Antoni's expression is one that makes people laugh, hahaha."

Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley analyzed Frank's movements on the sidelines and D'Antoni's facial expressions.

Frank did a good job of hiding it, and didn't express the emotion that he was actually shouting "MMP" as well.

He has been mixed up with Xu Xuan a lot, and he must do a good job of expression control, otherwise he will be embarrassed.

"Wow!"

"it!"

The domestic live broadcast was slightly delayed, which was the mood of all the students who saw this goal, which subverted their cognition......

"Beep!"

De Shuai called a timeout.

75-74, the score was overtaken.

"De Shuai should be a little anxious now, since they overtook in the middle of the first quarter, they have been suppressing the Lakers, and now they are overtaken, we have to find a way."

The suspension ends.

The mosaic sideline ball is sent out, and it still hits Harden at this point.

But now that Gordon is back, Mosaic has been replaced with all the starters.

Harden shook a little, and Gordon on the other side immediately cooperated with the cut-in, attracting the Lakers' defensive attention, and Harden quickly pulled back.

Xu Xuan stretched out his hand as much as he could, interfering with the ball.

"Boom!!"

This ball hit iron, Yi Jian even protected it strongly, and took off the rebound.

Yi Jianlian still gave the ball directly to Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan quickly led the half.

The fast break has no chance, and it seems that De Shuai also laid out tactics against the Lakers' fast break in this timeout.

Moreover, they changed their guards!

Now it's Gordon who defends himself, and Harden defends Russell.

Well?

What does it mean?

Kenny Smith kind of understood, is this to change Harden's focus from defensive offense to pure offense?

Harden's defense isn't what some people say, it's eye defense.

Among point guards, Harden's defensive efficiency has always been not low, just look at his attitude.

Using him to defend Xu Xuan is also a tactical method specially arranged by De Shuai before the game, but now, it can't be continued, the score is behind, and he now needs Harden to turn his focus to scoring.

There is no difference between Gordon's defense and Hardang's defense, Shuangdeng's size and confrontation ability are relatively close, Xu Xuan followed the method of beating Harden just now, and the front court was shaky-

Gordon was deceived in an instant-

Well, Gordon is easier to deceive than Harden, and Harden doesn't eat Xu Xuanhuang's.

After shaking Gordon, Xu Xuan accelerated in an instant.

"Xu, I won't let you play again." Gordon yelled in the back.

"Really? Then you watch. ”

Xu Xuan nodded and replied seriously.

Some people always like fantasies and daydreams, and what Xu Xuan has to do is to break their dreams and let them face reality honestly!
