Chapter 612: A Solid First Step

『Chapter error, click here to report』

A 40-point massacre shook the U.S. Route Center arena after the game. What else can be cooler than using a 40-point victory to repay the revenge of the Black Eight of the year? This 40-point win indicates that the Mavericks have completely broken the darkness that has been haunting their hearts.

I believe that from now on, no one will talk about the black eight of the year. The Mavericks have broken the shadow left by the Warriors, and this 40-point win is the best proof of that.

After the game, the reporters rushed into the stadium with their mouths wide open. They originally thought that the Warriors would perform better today, but they didn't know that the Dallas Mavericks, who had already performed well, could go to the next level.

Carlisle's strategy is very deadly, and the weakness of the Warriors' interior is infinitely magnified. Of course, the execution of the players on the field is also quite terrifying. They desperately stormed the basket, so that the Warriors finally gave up resistance altogether.

Mark. Jackson has been playing in the league for 27 years since his playing days. But in 27 years, he has never experienced such an exaggerated defeat.

In the final minutes of the game, Mark. Jackson didn't even know how things had gotten to this point. All he knew was that even if he shouted in his throat, the three-point shot that the team relied on to survive in the regular season would just not be able to shoot. Even if Drummond. Green and David. Lee and others have worked very hard, but they can't stop the Mavericks from scoring in the restricted area.

Everything is so powerless, Mark. The only thing Jackson could do was watch the team be bloodily slaughtered by the Mavericks. Having lost 11 points in the last game, Mark Murphy has lost 11 points. Jackson already felt ashamed enough. But obviously, today's score makes the 11-point gap look extremely pleasing to the eye.

"Coach Jackson, what do you think of this 40-point loss!?"

"Is there a problem with the Warriors' defensive strategy? The Mavericks scored a whopping 70 points in the box today, which means that half of their points in this game came from the box! ”

"Mark. Coach Jackson, do you think you were being suppressed by Coach Carlisle, or were your players being suppressed by the Mavericks? ”

All sorts of pointed questions that make Mark. Jackson's mind was a mess. People are right, NBA coach is definitely one of the most stressful professions in the world.

He didn't answer anyone, but like a walking corpse, his eyes glazed over the crowd towards the players' tunnel.

Flash in Mark. Jackson's back kept flashing, but the fat black coach didn't look back. Dragging his heavy body, he disappeared around the corner of the player's tunnel. The noise in the stadium was much quieter, and there were no annoying voices of reporters behind it.

Jackson pushed open the door to the visiting dressing room, which was empty and the players were still trapped in the stadium by reporters.

He walked over to the big tactical whiteboard, and the running lines on the whiteboard were now meaningless. His setup didn't help the team open the gap on the offensive end, and the Mavericks' defense still held back Curry and Thompson's shots.

I can't believe that just a few hours ago, he and his players were here to cheer each other on impassionedly, eager to take away the victory at the Center of the American Airlines, and to continue the "Black Eight Miracle".

But now? It's too cruel, the reality is really too cruel.

"Fuck it!" Mark. Jackson pushed hard, and the tactical whiteboard fell back with a loud bang. Looking at the messy scene, Jackson sat down on a stool in disheveled clothes.

Brilliant Mark, he was completely beaten stupid.

※※※

The next day, Mark. Jackson didn't even dare to watch the news. He couldn't imagine the vicious words the outside world would use to describe yesterday's defeat. If a team is depressed even by the manager, how can he motivate his players?

A 40-point defeat is very, very demoralizing indeed. This is direct proof that the two teams are not at the same level at all. It's good that Mark. Jackson didn't watch today's news, and if he were to see the media comparing the Warriors to the NCAA team, it would be estimated that Mark Brown. Jackson would faint directly from this spike in blood pressure.

Sitting on the plane, Mark. Jackson wished the plane had taken off quickly. The land of Dallas, he didn't want to stay for a minute.

2-0 aggregate, low morale and no way to make up for shortcomings...... Even if the game is about to return to Oakland, the Golden State Warriors' playoff journey this season may already be a lot of bad luck......

With the playoff battlefield shifting, both the Mavericks and Warriors were given two days off.

These two days on Mark. Jackson was unusually tormented because he knew very well that what he and his players did on the training pitch would probably not work at all when it came to the game.

How to crack the Mavericks' defense, Mark. Jackson had no answer in his mind. One of the characteristics of the Warriors' offense is that they are very good at their tactical positioning. But once the tactics don't get out, the team will go into a stagnant mode where they can't attack. It's not for nothing that the Warriors are only in eighth place in the West this season.

And what the Mavericks' defense is best at is making the opponent's tactics unable to run. As for the Warriors' own defense, that's even more Mark. A problem that Jackson couldn't solve. Unless there is an O'Neal on the team now, their interior will only be beaten by the Mavericks.

So these two days of preparation time for Mark. Jackson didn't make much sense. The only effect is to delay the death of the Warriors......

On April 24, 2014, the series between the Mavericks and the Warriors resumed. Back in Oakland, the Warriors fans cheered their team on with their loudest cheers. Although the last game was framed by 40 points, it is clear that Warriors fans don't want to give up just yet.

Yiyang stood in the center of the Oracle Arena and looked at the surrounding auditorium. It's very lucky for a team to have such a loyal group of fans.

It's a pity that I can't let you get your wish today!

When the Mavericks players took the court, boos erupted in the Oracle Arena. It's a noissy sound, but it's also exciting, and every basketball player loves to play in this environment.

Today, Carlisle has no and Mark . Jackson is gracious. He made Rudy. Gobert starts straight out and is going to blow up your interior as soon as he comes up.

In this regard, Jermaine. O'Neill felt nothing but deep despair. This season, he was the team's third center forward after Bogut and Azeli. I didn't expect that I would be a starter in the playoffs.

Although O'Neill Jr. has also experienced glory, now he must admit that he is a little inadequate.

As soon as he started, Yiyang assisted Iguodala to hit a three-pointer from outside the three-point line. Carlisle, it seems, is no longer content with his team scoring in the three-second zone. Today, the Mavericks are going to open up the offense in all directions.

But after the Warriors' offense passed, the fans in the Oracle Arena didn't see surprises. Yiyang and Tony. Allen's death entanglement made Curry and Thompson unable to run tactics at all.

Maybe these two little defenders will grow in the future, and they will become many times stronger than they are now. But at this moment, the young "Splash Brothers" really can't cope with such a defense.

The Warriors' offense stalled as soon as it came up, and it was Harrison who ended up with Harrison. Barnes stumbled on a driving layup to score two points for his team.

Iguodala's momentary oversights allowed the Warriors' young forward to take the chance, but Mark Brown. Jackson was well aware that Iguodala might only miss this one time in the whole game.

That's right, in fact, even Mark. Jackson himself has lost confidence in this game.

Subsequently, Gobert made several violent dunks under the basket, so that the score began to have a tendency to be pulled away. O'Neill Jr. had no way to stop the Frenchman except for fouls.

If Gobert's shooting wasn't really "genius", maybe he would have scored high points today.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Warriors fell into passivity. Curry and Thompson were in a hurry, so the two brothers began to try to score from the outside.

But Curry and Thompson's iron problems have not been alleviated after coming to Oakland, but have worsened.

After a while, the symptoms of three-point iron spread to the whole team. Later, not only Curry and Thompson, but also the rest of the Warriors showed symptoms of not being able to shoot three-pointers.

In the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, the Warriors "unsurprisingly" trailed by 20 points. If this game is lost again, then the Warriors, who are 3-0 down, are almost doomed to elimination.

Curry and Thompson don't want to accept such a fate yet, and they try to change the course of the game!

But the Mavericks' defense never seemed to go wrong, and they stayed focused throughout the game, tirelessly following their opponents around the court. Curry and Thompson, who were eager to equalize the score, became more and more impatient, which led to their shooting percentage falling instead of rising.

In the end, the Mavericks won again by a marginal score. After the game came to Auckland, the result did not change

Barkley looked at the Warriors' stats for this game, and the three-point shooting percentage hit a new low. Thompson fired from beyond the three-point line 11 times and hit just two shots. Curry took eight shots, one more than Thompson.

The Warriors made 31 three-point shots as a team, nearly double that number of the Mavericks. However, the number of hits is not as many as the Mavericks. 19.4 percent, a staggering number that makes Barkley unbelievable that the Warriors have always been a three-point shooting team.

"What more can I say? Coach Carlisle told everyone that defense is the key to winning the game! "Last summer, the super defensive lineup that Cuban spent a lot of money to build, after going through the "warm-up" of the regular season, finally showed their most terrifying side.

Three games in a row have dumbfounded the league's best three-point shooting team. If you look at the entire league, maybe only the Mavericks can do it.

3-0 down, countless teams want to break the "curse" of falling behind 3-0 and definitely going out. But one thing these teams have in common is that they all failed in the end.

At the post-match press conference, Mark . Jackson bluntly uttered something in front of everyone that made Warriors management angry. "We've lost this season, it's over, it's over."

The team is destined to lose, the fans know it in their hearts, but as the head coach, it is indeed a little inappropriate to admit defeat directly.

Mark. Jackson's remarks quickly jumped into the ears of the Warriors players, and there is no doubt that his remarks became the last straw that crushed the Warriors.

A day later, the Mavericks won the crucial battle with their main players only playing half a quarter.

At this time, the Warriors have no intention of fighting, and they are all losing anyway, so why struggle?

, which is the closest difference between the two sides since the start of the series. Of course, this is also the reason why the main players of the Mavericks did not play for a full half.

The result of this series can no longer be changed, 4-0, before the series begins, the warriors who are eager to stage the "Black Eight Miracle" may never have imagined that their ending will be swept out!

"4-0, the Dallas Mavericks swept the Golden State Warriors and became the first team in the league to advance to the second round of the series! God, almost every series in the West is hard to solve. But the Dallas Mavericks crushed their old enemy in such a crazy way. "Barkley looked at the Mavericks players on the court who were high-fived each other, the first step on your road to the championship is very steady!

The Black Eight Miracle is indeed a very exciting thing, but the Mavericks don't need a miracle. Their great strength will crush all the opponents who stop them!

This year's Dallas Mavericks are no joke.
