Five minutes into the second quarter, the Pacers were in control.

All-Star starting forwards are really hard to guard.

For Dampier at least, Wayne is a lot harder to defend than the traditional centers.

He'd rather rub in the box with O'Neal Jr. than be teased by Wayne from beyond the three-point line.

So, Dirk was tempted to ask, "Do I just want to play with Wayne beyond the three-point line?" Why did you send me to defend him? ”

Dirk's offensive ability is undoubted, and although many people say that he can't win a championship with a jump shot, he can really get good statistics.

And in Wayne's previous life, Dirk also proved that the jump shot is a real drop that can win a championship.

To say that Dirk's offensive ability is a top-notch presence should not be much of a disagreement.

But Dirk's defense ...... Let's put it this way, no one has ever cared about Dirk's defense.

Because his defense really doesn't have much to say.

Dirk's defense belongs to that type, which is not so bad that it is particularly slow, but it is really not a good type.

At this time, Dirk's speed has deteriorated due to weight gain, but it is still quite flexible.

Coupled with the height and reach of the arm, it is still very dangerous to defend Wayne.

That's why old Nelson was going to let Dirk give it a try.

If you don't contain the rookie of the Pacers, it will be really difficult to get back this game.

After the timeout came back, the Mavericks attacked first.

This time, Dirk singled low and made his Golden Rooster independent retreat.

Although Dirk's independent retreat has not yet been completed at this time, it can be regarded as a stunt. The basketball hollowed into the net, and it looked like the driver had regained a little bit of an offensive feeling.

The margin is back in single digits, and the Mavericks are ready to smooth the gap in one go.

And whether it can be done depends on the next set of Dirk and Wayne.

Wayne was originally ready to go up to continue training Dampier, but this time after crossing the halfway line, he found that the negative man had abandoned him.

"Gone? That's where it goes! Wayne looked at Dampier, who was fighting with Xiao Ao in the low position at this time, and felt very uncomfortable.

You're gone, how can I show my strength as an All-Star forward?

Soon, a huge figure appeared in front of Wayne.

Looking at Dirk in front of him, Wayne pursed his lips.

In the end, the spicy man still appeared in front of him.

It seems that there is no way to hide.

Today, it is destined to fight with the old driver!

Dirk was actually a little reluctant, and it was not surprising that Ma Dan had the highest tactical position on the offensive end.

This Nima, today he actually deliberately called himself to defend the opponent's arrow figure, which is a bit nonsense.

I'm Dirk the one who does this kind of thing?

Spent so much money to sign a dampier, and he was completely blind!

Old Nelson was also forced to be helpless, and right now, only Dirk can compete with Wayne.

Wayne and Payton continued to play pick-and-roll, but this time, it wasn't so easy for Wayne to get rid of Dirk by running off the ball.

The current Dirk is not the Dirk after 2011, he can still run.

It's faster than Dampier and the like, and I don't know where to go.

On the basis that speed is not too disadvantaged, Dirk stretched out his long arm again, and Wayne was not easy to catch the ball.

So in this round, Payton handed the ball to Tate.

Atay breaks through Josh. Howard then swooped into the box, but Dampier was very timely to stand under the basket and raise his arms to help.

Back under the basket, Dampier instantly felt like a fish in water, and the defense was not so unbearable.

In Dampier and Josh. With the efforts of Howard and the two, Tai missed a layup.

"Ron misses a layup and Dampier finally plays his part. It seems that Coach Nielsen's adjustment is still very timely. ”

The Mavericks managed to prevent the Pacers from scoring, and they got a chance to close the score!

Defensively, Wayne continued to play against Dampier, and O'Neal Jr. remained against Dirk.

Dirk, who found his touch, shot this time under the interference of Xiao Ao, although Xiao Ao's interference was already very tight, but the basketball still fell hollow into the net.

Old Nelson laughed, as long as Dirk can shoot, the Mavericks' offense is unstoppable!

"Damn it!" Xiao Ao shook his head helplessly, he was really fed up with the fight with Dirk.

Can't you win him once and for all?

At this time, Carlisle also frowned.

Seeing that Dirk is about to take off, he can't just let the calf catch up so easily.

In this round of the Pacers' offense, the ball still did not find Wayne.

Stephen. Jackson's jumper from beyond the three-point line hit an iron and the Pacers' offense suddenly stopped.

After the Mavericks counterattacked, Dirk faked a real shot, shook off O and scored two more points with a slow three-step layup.

Suddenly, there were only 5 points left. Dirk hit three shots in a row to knock the difference back in one fell swoop.

It is worthy of an old driver, and he speeds as soon as he steps on the accelerator!

Carlisle rushed to a timeout at this point, and he needed to hold on to that last advantage.

Everyone thought that Carlisle would make adjustments on the defensive end, but when it came up, Carlisle emphasized offense.

"Way, break through with the ball more, play Dirk more."

"Oh...... Yes!? Wayne looked up in surprise, more punches to Dirk?

Do you think too much of me, or do you look down on that German too much?

I didn't think I had a hard time catching the ball just now.

"Consume him, try to kill. We have to distract him on the defensive end so that he is less efficient on the offensive end. ”

"Oh, that's right." Wayne replied silently in his heart, saying so, and then he just killed Tudek.

To get in or not to get in?

"Jermaine, you play a lot on the defensive end, even if you foul, don't let him go to the basket easily. As long as he has a problem with his fitness, his shooting percentage will definitely fluctuate. ”

Carlisle's tactic, to put it bluntly, is to let Wayne and Xiao Ao fight Dirk hand-to-hand.

This...... Didn't you say last year that hand-to-hand combat like this would make the game boring? Isn't it hoped that the alliance will be able to rectify it?

Now it's really fragrant again?

Regardless, Wayne must have to carry out Carlisle's arrangement.

Just hard to slam Dirk, but I don't know if I will lie down before Dirk lies down.

Coming back after the timeout, Wayne stopped going around with Dirk. He holds the ball directly on the right side of the three-point line, and then the whole lineup pulls away.

"The Pacers actually arranged a one-on-one tactic for Wayne! Coach Carlisle is very bold, does he want Wayne to punch Dirk? ”

Dirk has also played small forward before, so he's no stranger to perimeter defense.

With his arms open and his center of gravity lowered, Dirk's movements were quite presentable.

Wayne took two steps with the ball, but Dirk's center of gravity didn't waver at all.

At this point, Wayne sped up and took a step toward Dirk's right.

Dirk did follow quickly, but ...... still allowed Wayne to grab about a third of the position!

And just like that, Dirk followed Wayne to the basket.

Dampier repeated his old trick and walked under the basket with his arms raised high, ready to be ashamed.

But Wayne wasn't a coward, he saw Ao in the middle distance, so he passed the ball before he was caught in the middle.

By the time Dampier scrambled to pounce on Xiao Ao again, it was too late.

"Brush!"

O'Neal Jr. hit a mid-range shot to break the scoring drought. Wayne's breakthrough worked, and he had become Carlisle's go-to weapon.

Dirk also found himself hitting a hard stubble today, and it was not so simple to contain Wayne.

I just sprinted wildly with Wayne, and now I want to participate in the attack immediately.

Dirk felt his breathing become rapid.

When the Pacers made a comeback, Dirk, who wanted to take a breather, found out in despair that he was ...... Wayne has the ball again!

"I'm rubbing, you're looking down on me Nuo!" Dirk lowered his center of gravity and lifted his trouser legs.

He wants to see what Wayne is capable of fighting by himself!

Before Dirk could finish making up for it, Wayne broke through again with a quick change of direction in front of his body.

The protagonist's opponents often die from talking too much.

Dirk didn't react immediately this time, and was directly overtaken by a position.

Looking at the back of No. 99, Dirk sighed: "Hey, there really are two brushes." ”

Then, the German tank stepped on the accelerator and stepped into the fuel tank and jumped after Wayne.

Dirk's palm was just a few centimeters away from the basketball and he couldn't stop the layup from being scored!

Dirk is starting to gasp a little, Wayne's style of play, Dirk feels like he is preventing misalignment every round!

"Go on, be a little more resolute!"

At this point, Carlisle shouted happily from the sidelines.

There's nothing like making an adjustment right away to make a manager happy.

After hearing Carlisle's shout, Wayne nodded silently, and then complained in his heart: "Do you think I'm not tired?" ”

Wayne's breakthrough did work, because after the Mavericks' offense, it was obvious that Dirk's running was not as aggressive as it was just now.

It's not that I don't want to be positive, it's that I'm really tired and want to take a few rounds off first.

In this way, little O'Neal can easily stick to Dirk.

As a result, the Mavericks also slowed down the pace of chasing points, and Dirk's streak of scoring was officially interrupted.

Old Nelson really didn't expect Wayne to use this way to scare Dirk's defense.

This is a gamble, betting on who can hold on to the end and not get tired first.

The third time, Wayne hit the basket with the ball again, and Dirk felt that his pace had begun to slow down.

So, the chase defense was half a beat slower.

When Wayne jumped up for the layup, Dirk jumped up impatiently to block.

But because of physical problems, he couldn't fully exert his strength, so the jump height was a little uninteresting, and he pulled Wayne's forearm and was whistled for a defensive foul.

"Doot toot!"

The whistle blows, and Wayne is knocked off the line by Dirk. He felt that if he forced his way a few more times, he would probably run out of energy.

"Wait?" Wayne, who was out of breath, lifted his head.

Breakouts, fouls, this ......

Isn't this the free throw method used by AI and Bosh in the first two games?

Yes, as long as you can get free throws, even if the physical exertion is severe, you can still ensure efficiency.

At the same time, it can also drag down Dirk to the maximum.

Wayne felt as if he had stumbled upon a way to brush up on points.

I'm an All-Star forward in the East, and I'm going to make a fool of myself today!

Wayne stepped onto the free throw line, took a few deep breaths, and waited for his body to calm before taking the free throw.

At this time, no one will interfere, and there is no need to act hastily.

Wait until you are in the best state to invest to ensure the success rate.

Sure enough, the basketball hollowed into the net. This way of scoring is easier than passing Dampier!

Soon, Wayne made a second free throw and it was still in the net.

Two free throws and two hits, and the Pacers are about to pull the difference to double digits again!

Wayne had mastered the essence of this breakthrough tactic, so he ...... At the end of the second quarter, it rained on the court!

"Dirk fouled again, Wayne was on the free-throw line again, how many free throws did he make today? But it can't be helped, Dirk will always be half a beat slower. ”

'Another foul, Dirk is going to be substituted if he doesn't want to be sent off early.'

In the eighth minute of the second quarter, Wayne burst Dirk!

Stackhouse came back to fill the scoring gap.

At the same time, the crooked mouth sprayed in time, continuing to stimulate the nerves of this Stark House.

The Mavericks' offense was completely chaotic, with Dirk and Stackhouse being restrained by Payton and Wayne, respectively.

The most bizarre thing is that Wayne's way of controlling Dirk is not defense, but offense!

Time entered the third quarter, and "Rain God" Wayne continued to rain for the next minute!

It's a breakthrough, it's a free throw!

Dirk has been suddenly exhausted by Wayne, and Wayne's efficiency is not really very high, but ...... You can score points!

Halfway through the third quarter, Carlisle had to kill people.

He told everyone: "If you have the chance, fight back!" ”

This is simply the life of the German tank, and the engine almost did not burst.

Because he put too much effort into the defensive end, Dirk's offensive efficiency in the second half was also very poor.

At this time, Maji, who had just stepped into the commentary business, couldn't stand it anymore: "Dirk's performance in the second half was not good, especially in the third quarter. ”

After speaking, Ma Ji was stunned for a moment.

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong, but it doesn't seem quite right?

As Dirk's fitness declined, his pace was much slower than before.

Wayne then took advantage of this to break through more frantically and make fouls again and again.

Finally, he experienced the thrill of a minute of rain falling on the court.

It's simply ...... It's cooler than shooting three points!

Obviously, there are no sports goals, but the score just keeps rising, and I can't stop at all!

The game continued to play until the end of the fourth quarter, when the Mavericks had trailed by 13 points, and Wayne also scored 27 points on free throws - a game-high.

It's the Mavericks' offensive round, and the exhausted Dirk wanted to break through to Ao, but he couldn't run.

So, he passed the ball to Dampier on the inside.

Dampier faced Wayne and came with a big hook from the center.

Strike iron!

Wayne picked up the rebound and pushed straight to the frontcourt.

Dirk saw it and hurriedly retreated. He faced Wayne and ran backwards with his back to his own half.

But as he ran, Wayne suddenly accelerated, with no intention of passing, as if he wanted to break through the defense by himself.

Dirk was in a hurry, and he also accelerated. But because he was running backwards, coupled with physical exhaustion, his legs were out of rhythm, and Dirk suddenly lost his center of gravity in the process.

As a result, the famous scene of the old driver driving the car was born.

I saw Dirk suddenly and uncontrollably retreat, waving his hands helplessly in the air, trying to regain control of his center of gravity, but to no avail......

That's it, like dancing, one step, two steps, three steps...... After about nine comical steps back, Dirk finally lost all his weight and sat down on the ground......

Old Nelson was stunned at the time, this Nima was pushed by the air?

Wayne was also stunned for a moment and passed the ball out.

This...... Do you say it is to help or not to help?

How do you look like a slanderer.

Dirk, who was sitting on the ground, simply fell to the ground and lay down on the cold floor.

"Fuck the All-Star starting forwards." Dirk scolded softly in a language he could understand.

Playing against Wayne is simply too torturous!

This time, Dirk himself lost his center of gravity and fell on his own, indicating that his physical strength had been squeezed dry by Wayne, and there was not a drop left.

Nelson Sr. reluctantly replaced Dirk, and this time, it was he who lost the bet.

Without Dirk, the Mavericks' offense at critical moments was chaotic like headless flies.

The Pacers also managed to hold on to their advantage until the end.

97-89, with Wayne's 14 free throws, the Pacers finally got their revenge last time.

Dirk made only 9 of 24 shots today, and although he scored 23 points, he basically relied on the number of shots.

And Wayne scored 30+ points for the second time in his career today, tying his career-high record with 32 points in the game!

In fact, Wayne's goal scoring in the field battle is not an exaggeration, but the free throws of 13 of 14 benefited Wayne a lot.

In any case, Wayne was kind of overpowering Dirk in terms of performance today.

Well, although it doesn't seem to be hard power......

No matter what, it's true anyway.. All-Star starters!

On top of that, it still gave him the harvest of German. Harris's admiring gaze.

"Wei, you actually defeated Dirk!"

"Hmm...... It was Jermaine who teamed up to defeat Dirk. ”

"With you, I think we might really be able to defeat Generation 03!" Harris seems to have automatically ignored some information.

"Well, then, prepare for that day, Devon, I need your help." Wayne smiled speechlessly, this guy was really fooled and lame.

In this way, Wayne, the starting forward of the Eastern Conference All-Stars, played a battle to prove his strength in front of Dirk.

Of course, he also gained Harris, a little brother who is willing to do things with Wayne.

After the game, in the face of an interview with reporters, Wayne was a little embarrassed: "My performance today was really average, really. ”

However, Wayne's truth-telling was interpreted by reporters as humility.

scored 32 points on Dirk's head and said that his performance was average, which is really terrifying!

Penalty kicks, sure enough, are easy to use.

Back in the locker room, Wayne thought over the course of the game.

Seriously, being able to overwhelm Dirk in data today is a bit of a "crooked way".

But as long as you can win, then all means are justified!

You see, today, although it was scored by free throws, didn't it also get a lot of praise?

Wayne was wondering if he could do something unusual when he played the 03 Star team half a month later.

After all, if you fight hard power, the 04th class will definitely not have to fight. It's like today, if you fight hard power, it will definitely be Wayne who will be blown up.

Thinking of this, Wayne began to think about his way to win.

This year's rookie game could be the best rookie game in NBA history......
