Chapter 329: Golden Rooster Independence
"Hey, I said this early, and it feels like Carlisle heard me say that he wouldn't call a timeout, so he immediately called a timeout and slapped me in the face!" Seeing that Carlisle called a timeout as soon as he finished speaking, Director Zhang said with a smile to resolve the embarrassment.
"This also proves that the Mavericks are very cautious today, after all, they are still behind, and once the score is continued to be pulled away, then the Trail Blazers will really take away two wins on the road!" Yang Rui also said with a smile.
Although Director Zhang's words were slapped in the face just now, Director Zhang, as a senior in the commentary industry, Yang Rui still maintains respect.
"Well done!"
Xue Ding and the others returned to the sidelines, and their teammates all stood up excitedly and came up to high-five them in celebration.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, under the leadership of Xue Ding, the Trailblazers took the lead and scored five points in a row to further expand the score.
Now they have a good chance of taking home two wins in Dallas.
"With a little bit of persistence, we can get back to Portland with two wins, come on!"
Pritchard, the head coach of the Trail Blazers, is also shouting excitedly at his players, constantly encouraging Xue Ding and others.
This game is like a duck to the Trail Blazers, as long as they stay focused and finish this fourth quarter of the game.
Then the duck won't be able to fly.
At this point, the only thought on everyone's mind was to win the game so they would return to Portland with a huge 2-0 advantage.
The duck must not let him fly.
This was the only thought in Xue Ding's heart at this time.
And the Mavericks obviously don't intend to give up the victory of this game to the Trail Blazers so easily.
This time around, the Dallas Mavericks have already experienced too many setbacks.
In 06, when they were leading 2-0 in the finals, they were won four games in a row by the supernatural Wade and the old sharks, who were already on the decline, and took away the O'Brien Cup they thought they had already got.
After a year of defeat, the Dallas Mavericks made a comeback in '07, and the Mavericks became the league's No. 1 team with a 67-15 record, and Dirk Nowitzki also won the regular season MVP.
But in the playoffs, they met the Golden State Warriors led by Nelson Sr.
In the first round of the playoffs in 07, the Mavericks, who had the league's first regular season record, were led by the Golden State Warriors in the first round of the playoffs by Nelson Sr.
After the game, Nowitzki, the team's central leader, angrily smashed a hole in the wall in the locker room.
Although the team is still behind, the faces of everyone on the Mavericks show their desire to win and strong fighting spirit.
They also know what it means to lose two home games in a row in the playoffs.
"I believe that I don't need to say anything, you also know that we have to win this game, we believe that you will never want to go through the pain and humiliation you have experienced in the past, show your attitude and win this game!"
Carlisle didn't continue to lay out any tactics at this time, he knew that these people in front of him were no longer rookies, and he already knew the tactics on the field.
And with Kidd as a brain on the field, he doesn't have to worry about the team's offense at all.
Soon the timeout ended and the game resumed.
This time Carlisle spelled.
He took all the main forces up.
"The Mavericks took all the main players after the timeout, and it was clear that the Mavericks didn't want to give up this game just like that, they wanted to defend their home court with all their might!" Commentator: Yang Rui said after seeing Nowitzki and other main players all appear.
"You're right, the Mavericks are behind, but they are very determined to play this game, and they will definitely do their best to defend their home court, although the Trail Blazers still maintain the lead, but they must play with a twelve-point spirit, otherwise the Mavericks in the last game will be where they are today." Director Zhang analyzed carefully.
Pritchard didn't bring in all of his main players so early, and it was clear that he wanted them to rest off the pitch for a while.
After all, they still have a lead of more than a dozen points.
He has the capital to give his master an extra minute or two off the pitch.
Kidd quickly advanced the ball forward with the ball, and Nowitzki leaned back against Chandler at a 45-degree angle on the left.
The rest of the Mavericks quickly pulled the space away.
Kidd's lobb pass put the ball in Nowitzki's hands.
Although Xue Ding quickly caught the ball the moment Nowitzki received the ball, he was still a step too late.
Nowitzki catches the ball and turns.
Golden Rooster Independence!
Sell!
There was no hesitation.
Xue Ding didn't have time to form a trap on him.
Nowitzki's shot was followed by a wonderful arc in the air and a hollow "boom" into the net.
"The Golden Rooster is independent, Nuo Tianwang's signature move, although Chandler's has been quickly sealed, but it can't interfere with his shooting at all, his trick is really too incomprehensible!" Commentator Yang Rui said.
"That's right, you look at Nowitzki, a tall and big man, who can get it when he turns around and leans back to the golden rooster independence, this is where he is powerful, although Xue Ding has already begun to wrap up, but he is still a step late!" Director Zhang said.
"That's true, a star of Nowitzki's calibre can't let him receive the ball so comfortably in this position!"
"That's right, the Trail Blazers have to wrap up in advance, and it is possible to limit him if he doesn't have a comfortable catch!"
Nowitzki made his trademark shot and quickly ran back to the backcourt with a blank face.
His long blond hair fluttered in the wind.
The fans in the long-dormant arena of the American Airlines Center once again burst into a thunderstorm.
“defence,defence......”
The Trail Blazers attacked, and Chandler sent the ball to Xue Ding from the baseline.
Xue Ding was not in a hurry with the ball, after all, they were the one in the lead, and he slowly dribbled the ball through the half.
Just after halftime, Marion, the Mavericks' defensive gate on the outside, clung to him, and at the same time, Butler on the side was also eyeing Xue Ding, ready to come up and wrap up at any time.
Xue Ding's continuous shaking couldn't shake Marion away.
Suddenly, an accelerated ball burst into the ball from the left, and Butler's bag came quickly.
Xue Ding distributed the ball, and Fernandez, who had a vacant position in the bottom corner, received Xue Ding's pass without hesitation and made a three-point shot.
But alas, this time it didn't hit.
The basketball arced through the air and then popped out of the frame.
This time, Haywood fought desperately with Oden under the basket and won the rebound.
After getting the ball, Heywood was not in a hurry and handed the ball to Kidd safely.
