Coach Carlisle couldn't have imagined that the biggest obstacle to his desire to completely transform the Mavericks was actually the team's leading star.

As Sun Ce guessed, Nowitzki has a psychological shadow!

Nowitzki was eliminated in the first round of the 2007 playoffs by Stephen Jackson on 38 percent shooting from the field and 21 percent from three-point range......

This series of events has given Nowitzki a psychological shadow to a defender who is similar in size to Stephen Jackson, and when he encounters this type of defender, he will play impatiently and will want to fight back with the same style of play he did in the 2007 playoffs.

It's a disease, a psychological disease, which is very common in the NBA, just like Gilbert Arenas wilted when he met James in his prime, DeMar DeRozan wilted when he met James at his peak and pulled Kyrie Lowry into the water to form the garbage brothers, and the Rockets were afraid when they met the new version of the twins......

In the past two years, the Mavericks management has hired a psychiatrist for Nowitzki, which has been alleviated in many ways, such as being afraid of Duncan, Nowitzki survived, and was beaten by Kobe Bryant for 3 quarters and 62 points, and he also survived.

But it was the darkest season for Nowitzki that was blackened, and the shadow lingered, and in the past two years he has met Battier, Stephen Jackson, Kirilenko, Richard Jefferson...... and several other players of similar size played badly.

Battier just knows this, so he took the initiative to defend Nowitzki, he has been one of the best defenders in the league in the past two years, even better than Garnett and Duncan, in the past two years, Nowitzki has only shot 39% from the field against Battier, and the worst one is 4 of 18 shots.

The doctor's advice was not to stress too much, not to be afraid, and to let Nowitzki face it himself.

Coach Carlisle had no choice but to wait for Nowitzki to adjust his heart.

Playing the Grizzlies today, Coach Carlisle resisted the urge to call a timeout, allowing Nowitzki and Battildo to face each other for a few rounds before calling a timeout.

It's important to help Nowitzki adjust, and it's important to win.

Coach Carlisle replaced Nowitzki with Jason Terry, Marion at power forward, Josh Howard at small forward, and Dampier with the more physical Heywood.

……

Seeing Jason Terry, Sun Ce thought of Curry......

Terry changed into a-yellow headband today, which is quite spicy and makes Terry look even darker.

But Terry is so strong!

came up and singled out Guy, who was more than ten centimeters taller than him, and hit a three-point shot.

This is a real Yan page size!

"That's awesome...... I'll see, Jason Terry, Ability Evaluation A, Offensive S-, Defensive D, Three-point A+, Mid-range Shot A+, Layup B, Dribble Shot S+...... it! Isn't this little man 32 years old? Wait, he's like he just played the best performance of his career last year......"

The situation on the field has changed from one-sided to evenly matched!

The main thing is that the strong attack point that Kidd needs can really play the role of a strong attack point, so that the rotation of the ball that Kidd needs is generated, Terry dribbles to break through the emergency stop jump shot needs to be pinched to defend, and after Terry passes, the ball can run according to what Kidd wants.

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines watched the point difference and couldn't catch up for a long time, just competing with the opponent, but the Grizzlies' previous lead was still there, and sighed.

It was too late to get Kidd last season, and Kidd was traded after the All-Star weekend, and after the All-Star weekend, the Mavericks had to fight for a win in the playoffs, and last year the Mavericks were sixth in the West, and the ninth-place Suns were only 3 wins behind, and there was almost no time to integrate Kidd into the team system, that is, the Mavericks system with Kidd in the system, which was the real beginning of the run-in this season.

And Nowitzki's side wilted when he met Battier......

On the Grizzlies' side, relying on the strength of the starting lineup, in the seventh minute of the first quarter, they still led the Mavericks by 3 points at 15-12, and after Marion received Kidd's transfer pass and hit a layup to narrow the gap to 3 points, the Grizzlies called a timeout!

Sun Ce took off his training uniform and came to the sidelines to do radio gymnastics.

Sun Ce is getting more and more popular, the times are calling in Memphis is also getting more and more popular, and I don't know where the DJ at the FedEx Arena heard that this was radio gymnastics......

Sun Ce shook his head, he moved his own, he just watched Kidd fight for so long, and he felt a lot of pressure!

0 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, and didn't see how long Kidd had the ball, Kidd advanced to the frontcourt, handed the ball to Nowitzki and Jason Terry, who came on the court later, and then directed his teammates to run, occasionally the ball passed his hands, and then there were two assists.

This is still a situation where the Mavericks are visible to the naked eye and do not play much smooth coordination!

However, if you want to limit Kidd from getting a triple-double, it's actually very simple, just hurt each other and don't let the other team score......

At this time, Sun Ce heard Battier's voice.

"Zach, don't run lazily when Noah advances, find your place! This way you can shoot more easily, take advantage of your teammates' abilities and don't just think about opening up the situation on your own. Battier said and patted Randolph on the shoulder.

Watching Battier educate Randolph like a younger brother, Randolph didn't pick his nostrils but nodded honestly, Sun Ce felt that the three views were a little collapsed!

It's right that Randolph is a good talker, but this kind of situation of being ordered is the first time Sun Ce has seen it!

Dare to use this tone to talk to Randolph, the team boss in name and strength, Sun Ce is also the first time to see it!

"Even if Battier had the demeanor of a leader, he wouldn't be so awesome! After the game, I have to ask, how to subdue this fat man, let him teach Lao Tzu the technique well......"

……

On the Grizzlies' side, the lineup of Sun Ce, Anthony Parker, Gay, Randolph, and Jordan Jr. played.

On the Mavericks' side, Kidd continued to play, and he was the second-highest player for the Mavericks, averaging 36 minutes per game.

Seeing that the three cores of Kidd, Terry, and Nowitzki are all on board, Marion is also there, and there is a future aunt of the Kardashian family...... Sun Ce felt that the other party was playing tricks!

In the rotation stage, three starters and the best sixth man were actually fielded!

The opponent is planning to break them down in the rotation stage!

Coming back from a timeout, the Grizzlies attacked.

Sun Ce received the serve and advanced to the front court......

Kidd stayed one step inside the top arc and didn't retreat far, he was afraid of Sun Ce's possible outburst.

Sun Ce was about to approach the three-point line, looking at Kidd's figure and Kidd's left foot stepping from time to time...... With just such a detail, Sun Ce felt great pressure!

With more than a meter away from the three-point line, Sun Ce accelerated to the right! Sure enough, Kidd's small action was determined that he was going to break through to the right, Kidd was not fast, A-level speed, but his prediction ability was too strong!

Sun Ce could only change direction in advance, and turned sharply two steps inside the three-point line before reaching the free throw line, leaning his body to the left, and accelerating the change of direction!

"Acceleration and direction change level 1 is triggered during travel, and the host's speed is increased to S ...... within 1 second"

An instantaneous acceleration left Kidd behind!

Kidd watched in surprise as Sun Ce changed direction and rushed into the inner line, feeling incredible! Based on his judgment of Sun Ce, Sun Ce's explosive speed should be very poor, but it was too amazing just now!

Sun Ce took advantage of Kidd's unpreparedness to pass it and burst into the inside, Randolph restrained Nowitzki on the bottom line, Humphries immediately came up to make up for the defense, Sun Ce threw the ball to Humphries's head to the inside, and Jordan Jr. rushed in and pressed the ball into the frame with one hand!

The ball caught the Mavericks off guard!

You must know that Devin Harris, who is also extremely fast on average, has a hard time breaking through when facing Kidd.

But that's not what Kidd cared about, he felt that the kid across from him was really like him! and the big second-grade man opposite, which reminded him of the second-grade big man he once partnered with, who was so able to jump.

Kidd feels like he's going to have to give it his all!

How is he feeling now...... It's the same mood as Nash every time he wants to beat Sun Ce!
