220:Towards the top (5K Ticket Request)
The starting lineup on the Mavericks' side is similar to last season, and it is to put Wayne's little brother Devin in '04. Game otaku. Harris straightened out.
The starting five Tigers are Harris, Terry, and Josh. Howard, Dirk and the Mavericks' biggest name, Dampier, known as the second center in the West.
On the bench, there was also a Jerry. Stark House.
The offensive firepower can be described as quite brave.
Chinese fans are happy today, now you can watch the Trail Blazers VS Mavericks first, and then the Lakers VS Suns, it's not too cool.
There were three games in the opening match, two of which featured Chinese players.
Can this be unpleasant?
Stern took the hearts of the fans to the core.
Since Wayne is playing in the West for the first time, most Western Conference teams are not as hostile to Wayne as much.
Including calves.
Originally, in the West, the Nuggets, Spurs and Trail Blazers were the most hostile to Wayne.
Let's not talk about the Nuggets, as long as Angua is in one day, the Nuggets are Wayne's enemies.
Spurs, everyone who understands understands, how long has it been since the 05 finals.
If you don't understand it anymore, go to Google the keywords of Wayne, Bowen, Xiang, lung atrophy, and retirement, and you will understand it in seconds.
These words simply sums up the tragic end of Bowen's career.
And the Trail Blazers, because of the guns last season, were not very friendly to Wayne.
But at this point, Wayne himself was part of the Trail Blazers.
Therefore, the West is full of calculations, and Wayne's enemies are the Spurs and Nuggets.
Of course, Wayne wasn't worried about that.
Reverse courtesans are best at making enemies.
In the future, in the west, there will definitely be more and more people who are close to Wayne.
The referee threw the basketball into the air, and the sister-in-law won the ball with the advantage of her height and reach.
Gun'er held the ball steadily to face Harris, and at this point, Gasol stepped up to cover Paul.
Is this still worth it?
Dampier can only keep up with Paul.
So, instead of following forward, he cowered in a deeper position and waited for Paul to come to the door himself.
As a result, Paul didn't waste a second after breaking through with a cover, and passed the ball directly to Gasol.
Gasol raised his basketball and was about to shoot, but Dampier quickly sealed it.
"Hehe, thought I didn't know you had a middle distance?"
Dampier was secretly happy, and by the way, he praised his super high defensive awareness.
And then......
My sister-in-law suddenly put away the basketball and turned her throw into a sudden!
Most of the interior players like Gasol, who have delicate skills and accurate shots, have one characteristic - they played guard when they were children.
Gasol is like that, so his ability to break through the face frame is actually underrated.
Although it can't be like Wayne, he can directly pull the opponent out and go heads-up.
But it's still very effective to pop out of the frame once in a while.
Dampier was one step away from Gasol, and Dirk had two options, either to defend the basket or to defend Wayne.
He chose the former without hesitation, let go of Wayne, and he still had the probability of not being able to shoot in the open space.
But if you don't make up for the basket, Gasol will have to dunk directly!
Dirk then quickly moved towards the basket, and Dampier immediately chased after Wayne, which was a tacit change.
However, Gasol's pass was a step quicker than Dampier's.
Spanish golden boy Rubio once asked Dajia for passing advice, and he not only has good vision, but also first-class passing skills.
That's it, from the cannon blocking and launching the attack to Gasol's breakthrough with the ball.
The ball went around in circles and ended up in Wayne's hands.
What is the first offensive option, I have to come up with a tactical backlash!
Wayne caught the ball and threw it, giving Dampier no chance to interfere at all.
Dirk immediately jammed Gasol under the basket, but it was in vain.
Wayne's three-pointer was solid, and he scored his first point with the Trail Blazers!
"Nice fit, the Trail Blazers trio made a really beautiful offense as soon as they came up.
They seem to have a good understanding, and it doesn't look like it's the first time they've played together. ”
Reggie. Miller applauded, if the previous Pacers' style of play was rough, it was a fierce hand-to-hand defense, and it was a deadly impact.
Then this trailblazer is elegant.
Every run and every pass, it's just right, and it's so soft to overcome rigidity.
However, it is impossible to say how good the current tacit understanding of the Trail Blazers is.
But......
Can't stand the three of them, the ball quotient is quite tall, and they are all very good at reading the game.
If you don't have a tacit understanding, you will have a tacit understanding.
Dirk shook his head, this Wayne really couldn't let go. But today, it is estimated that this will happen many more times.
Dampier's defense is now limited to hand-to-hand combat in the paint area.
But the pace is too slow, and defending Gasol's technical type will suffer a lot.
Today, Dirk is destined to be constantly caught in the same dilemma.
After the Mavericks beat over, "Little General" Avery . Johnson yelled at Harris from the sidelines.
Harris also raised his hand and gestured two fingers.
"No. 2 singles!"
As a young point guard, Harris has eaten these five sets of tactics of the Mavericks clearly.
Don't say it, Harris's tactics are a little similar to Kobe.
It's all singles anyway!
The ball was passed to Terry, and the Mavericks' lineup pulled away at once.
Why is the Mavericks' offense so full of singles and so efficient?
Because there are so many of them who can shoot!
The starting five tigers, except for Dampier, can all shoot and be accurate.
In this way, the second center in the West has dragged his feet on both offensive and defensive ends today......
As for why the Mavericks chose to let Terry single, to put it bluntly, they look down on Anthony. Parker.
Although the title of king of Europe has been mixed up in recent years, the European league and the NBA have always been different.
As soon as he returned to the NBA, he started as a starter, and many people put a big question mark on his ability.
Maverick this is to help the pioneer inspect the goods.
Terry broke through immediately after holding the ball and was very fast.
Terry has always been an integral part of the Mavericks' offensive end, and in Wayne's previous life, in the '11 Finals, most people only remember Dirk as a god.
However, Terry was also averaging 18 points and 49.4 percent shooting per game in that series.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this performance is overwhelming the mousse at that time.
After Terry broke through, he first looked at his teammates, looking for an opportunity to break through the ball.
He's not the kind of guard who only sees the basket in his eyes, and his options are more balanced when it comes to passing and shooting himself.
But after discovering that the Trail Blazers resolutely defended 1 and 1, Terry jumped and threw in the middle distance!
At this moment, Parker, who had a more dominant height and reach, interfered in time.
Parker is a full 10 centimeters taller than Terry, and with the advantage of his reach, Terry is very uncomfortable.
Eventually, his throw hit the neck of the basket, and the Trail Blazers' defense worked!
"Nice defense, Parker didn't let Terry get his way. Gaso got the rebound, and the Trail Blazers fought back! ”
"This ......" Johnson didn't expect, this Anthony. Parker does have something.
And Parker's performance didn't surprise McMirando.
It may not be possible to say that Parker is a top-tier defensive gate, but his defense is definitely above average, at least not a weakness.
At this time, Candace, the "female version of mousse" who was still in college. Parker cheered his brother's return to the NBA.
What level are you going to say Parker? His sister can dunk at a level!
The Trail Blazers counter-attack is relatively fast, which is also the characteristic of McMillan's coaching.
The changeable rhythm always catches the other party off guard.
When it should be fast, it should be fast, when it should be slow, one fast and one slow, retract and release freely.
Pao Luo immediately accelerated when he received the basketball, thanks to Harris is also a fast man, otherwise he really couldn't catch up with Pao Er, who was not seriously injured.
The gun made an abrupt stop outside the three-point line and immediately stopped the car.
Don't ask, ask is that the core strength is strong and you can do whatever you want.
Paul looked at Yuduka, who cut in from the right after finishing the defense, but his hand turned the ball to the left.
Wayne received the basketball and went on a strong score.
Dampier and Dirk both shrank under the basket, ready to wrap a dumpling.
Since it comes to making dumplings, I have to mention my sister-in-law.
I saw Wayne under the basket, and instead of being strong, he put his hand on Dirk's waist and sent the ball out.
My sister-in-law received the basketball in the middle distance and shot it with the height of the Coke can.
My sister-in-law's shooting is like this, as if it was just a symbolic jump.
Then, the basketball hit again, 4-0.
"This is a hammer!" Avery. Johnson exploded, and he now knows why Popovich was so angry when he saw the Randolph-Gasol deal.
The two interior lines that can shoot and respond are combined, and they are simply unplayable.
Although Wayne was with the Pacers, Ao was also able to shoot.
But his ability to respond has always been a little less interesting, and he still has to work in a low position.
Now this Gaso can really pass the ball, who can withstand this.
The cooperation of the International Twin Towers was a great success, and Wayne and his sister-in-law stayed and flew together, and they played very happily.
What could be happier than being spotted by a teammate when a seat is open?
At this time, Dirk was not willing to be lonely.
They are both international players, one of you won the World Championships, and the other stepped on me to win the seventh.
Are you still bullying me when you come to the NBA?
I'm not a vegetarian!
So, Harris gestured four fingers.
Singles in the fourth position!
This season's Dirk is an MVP-caliber player, especially the face-frame offense, which is really good.
The Mavericks' offense emphasizes fast singles, so Dirk wasted no time, taking a step forward after receiving the ball, then quickly retracting the basketball and making a step-back jumper.
It's that simple, it's that straightforward.
Wayne did his best to block it, but Dirk's shot was really not a good interference.
The basketball hit and the Mavericks scored their first point of the day.
"!" Wayne picked up the basketball unwillingly, and Dirk's face was indeed a bit of a beep.
After that, he practiced his back again, no wonder the Heat couldn't withstand it in 11 years.
In that case, don't blame me for bullying you!
Wayne began to play with Paoill, and before the start of the season, some media predicted that Wayne and Paoer might fall out.
But from pre-season to now, no signs of this have been found.
After the pick-and-roll, Paul broke through Dirk, and it was like a joke.
Dirk's defense is enough to choke Wayne, let alone Paul.
After Paul's breakthrough, the sister-in-law was very clever enough to jam Dampier.
So, the No. 3 guard dunked violently.
Don't look at only 183, the explosiveness is indeed strong.
At this time, Pao Luo suddenly remembered his opening moves of Wayne and Gaso before the game.
He couldn't help but wonder if I could jump up and throw five punches in the air before hugging Wayne.
See here, Avery . Johnson gave up.
Abandon the defense to contain the opponent.
It's really unstoppable.
Paul + Wayne + Gaso, there is no solution to the offense.
Whoever blocks and dismantles will be beaten to death.
In that case, let's have a confrontation between men!
So the first quarter of the game came to an end in the crazy confrontation between the two sides.
Even with the rotation time, the attack of both sides did not weaken in the slightest. The Trail Blazers have Dixon, Outlaw, and Percy.
On the Mavericks' side, there is also Stackhouse, the sixth man, who continues to implement the singles strategy.
So the first quarter was played, 28-22, and the defending champions of the West trailed by 6 points.
That's a lot more than in the previous two seasons.
"Keep fighting like this, let's devour those mercenaries with our attacks!"
Avery. Johnson knows that in the face of extreme offense, a six-point deficit is not a problem at all.
But the Trail Blazers don't plan to play against them, and McMillan is very persistent on defense.
"Defend closely, put pressure on the ball! So Dirk can't rush, he can only shoot. Keep putting pressure on him, sooner or later he'll lose his touch! ”
McMillan emphasized, and gestured.
At this time, the driver was afraid of being guarded by the swingman, and Wayne was a large swingman.
So in the second quarter, Dirk found that the offense was much harder than before.
Before he could catch the ball, Wayne would rush over and stick to him.
After receiving the ball, still stick to yourself.
Don't give a breakthrough, don't give a chance to start easily, and force you to turn your back.
This move not said to completely prevent Dirk, but it did greatly reduce Dirk's offensive efficiency.
Dirk scored 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting in the first quarter, but he went 2-of-4 in the second quarter.
In the third quarter, Dirk made Johnson tremble with a wave of 1-of-4.
Said to be a good attack, you actually defended!?
Moreover, it is so well guarded!
In the original history, although Dirk won the MVP this season, he was not absolutely inexplicable.
If you really don't have a solution, you won't be hacked.
In the fourth quarter, Dirk, who was physically and mentally exhausted by Wayne, even had a hard time receiving the ball again.
Under Wayne's defense, Dirk was exhausted and sweating profusely.
Every time he meets Wayne, Dirk feels like he's going to be tortured to the point of physical exhaustion.
The classic picture of him driving backwards because he was too tired has been played back as a funny video from time to time.
And Wayne, he just likes this kind of hand-to-hand combat.
The "tough defense" that was trained to gold still had a huge impact on Dirk, and with the blessing of "long-lasting", Wayne's closer defense is, the easier it is.
You're probably a little more tired when you let him run all over the field.
But you let him get tangled closely...... Kobe Bryant knows how powerful. It's not how powerful the defense itself is, it's the kind of power that can really torture you to death.
By this point, the Trail Blazers had led by 11 points in the final five minutes of the fourth quarter.
The Western Conference champions are in disarray at the Rose Garden.
Dirk once again singled with the ball, and Wayne was still close to the ball, pressing.
Dirk was uncomfortable, and his hand was affected in the continuous hand-to-hand combat.
So this time, Dirk chose to break through!
Wayne reacted immediately and resisted Dirk, and when Dirk jumped to the basket, Wayne split his head and covered his face with a big risk!
"Smack!"
"The basketball was fanned out of the bottom line, and Dirk's strong burst was not possible at all! Tough defense, Wayne put Dirk to shame today! Miller stood up and applauded, this is the league's top offensive No. 4 position!
was pinched to death by Wayne.
Wayne: Sat down Miller, I haven't added any stats yet. Otherwise, you'll have to applaud harder.
Dirk also fell to the ground in embarrassment after being blocked, and Wayne stood in front of Dirk and roared angrily.
The Rose Knight, conquered the lion.
Miller suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, and he had the same savage smell as he had been with the Pacers!
He previously said that this Trail Blazers are very elegant, and they overcome rigidity with softness.
However, he was wrong, and the team with Wayne was never about overcoming rigidity with softness.
They're going to hit it hard!
After completing the block, Pao Luo was the first to rush up and high-five Wayne.
As long as you play well and seriously, I will recognize you as a good big brother.
Dirk was autistic, and the more he went to the back, the more he couldn't move.
Want to play a match? I'm sorry, but the Mavericks really don't have any team offensive routines.
The offense of this team is spread out with a lot of singles.
Once a point is sealed, it can't be moved.
So in the original history, you have to wait for Carlisle to come and transform the entire offensive and defensive system, and the Mavericks can really make a name for themselves.
Wayne's attack completely shocked Dirk.
He knew that this third year had begun to move closer to the top No. 4 position.
For the next five minutes, Dirk didn't make a single shot, and he couldn't even catch the ball.
Others can still score goals in singles, but they can't score in a row.
On the Trail Blazers' side, Paul is still full of energy and always creates easy scoring opportunities for his teammates.
And just like that, in the cheers of the Trail Blazers fans, and in the stunned expressions of the neutral fans, the Trail Blazers defeated last season's Western Conference champions 106-91, 15 points at home!
"It's over, the Trail Blazers have shown us how strong they are this season! Last season's Western Conference champions, doing nothing in front of them! Tremble, there is really a very terrible force in the west! ”
Dirk looked at the big screen in disappointment, he was 8-of-16 from the field today, and he scored 26 points on 50% shooting, which seemed to be pretty good.
If you just look at the stats, Wayne's defense is just like that.
But those who watched the game knew that five of Dirk's eight goals came in the first quarter when he was full of energy.
Throughout the second half, he was limited to just one open goal.
Wayne is now a defensive gate, except for the low post top defense, which is almost meaningless.
After the match, Gaso was very excited to hug Wayne.
Paul also came up and punched Wayne.
These two men rarely tried such hearty big wins last season.
Wayne looked up and saw that he had 25 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, Gasso had 18 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks, and Cannon had 24 points, 9 assists and 2 steals.
What more bikes?
The team's three-point shooting rate is also above 40%, after all, there are really many three-point shots.
Others don't score as much, but they win with efficiency.
No matter how sour the outside world is, the pioneers are strong, that's the truth!
After the game, when Pao'er was interviewing, someone passed behind him and touched his head.
Pao'er's expression was wrong in an instant, and he turned his head with a straight face, wanting to see who was so short-sighted.
Don't touch my head, don't touch my head, I don't have to warn you to remember?
As a result, when he turned his head to see that it was Wei Ge, Pao'er suddenly showed a mouth full of white teeth.
The expression transformation is so fast that it can be called Hollywood level.
It's Wei Ge, that's fine.
Paul looked at the camera with a grin, and the reporter asked him one last question: "If you had to choose the best performer from the three of you, who would you choose?" ”
"Wayne, the championship genes in him, his drive, his pre-race encouragement, all had a huge impact on us. I think the Trail Blazers are finally a team that starts winning! ”
Keeping up with a good big brother who is capable, competitive, and really capable of winning, Paul said that he was very comfortable.
If this were Zack, he would have to be beaten into a patty by Dirk today.
Well, God knows how much Cannon Nails hates Zack.
As Wayne exited the field, he reached out and high-fived the fans in the stands on either side.
The fans responded with cheers.
In just one game, the new owner of the Rose Garden was recognized by both fans and teammates.
