Chapter 153: The best record in the league

Moodier and his family excitedly lined up outside the arena at the American Airlines Center, where huge posters of all the Mavericks players hung on the wall outside. The young man from Congo also hopes that one day, his picture will be hung there.

Of course, this is a fantasy that every ordinary little boy will have. How many people who love basketball have never fantasized that they will be able to play in the NBA one day?

But Moodier is different from others, since he met Yiyang, Moodier has really made it his goal to play in the NBA, not just a fantasy. For this reason, he spends more and more time on basketball every day, and this little boy seems to find hope to change his fate.

Following the long queue to enter, the Moodier family finally reached the door of the gymnasium. Moodier and his two older brothers are very fond of basketball, but when they step into the center arena of American Airlines, the world of basketball presented here is something that the three boys have never seen before.

In the NBA store, there are genuine Mavericks players' jerseys, and in an accessory store, the owner is proudly showing off a high-quality championship ring. The Mavericks' mascot is interacting with people and taking pictures, and the Adidas store is full of Mavericks-colored sneakers......

While the three lads were dizzying, a staff member in a Mavericks blue T-shirt tapped Moodier on the shoulder.

"Boy, put on a Mavericks t-shirt and cheer on your team! Rest assured, this is given out to fans for free by the team! ”

The Moody's family, dressed in T-shirts from the Mavericks, followed the crowd into the arena.

Suddenly, the cacophony of voices in the stands poured into Moodier's ears. The huge magnesium lights illuminated the whole court like a mirror, and on the court, several players had already begun to shoot and warm up. Close-ups of the players' faces were shown on the big screen.

Seeing this scene, which had only appeared on television, Moodier felt his blood boil all over his body. This warm atmosphere, BA, I'm coming!

"Don't take it lightly, don't make mistakes! The Nets have recently lost five in a row, and there's no reason for them to walk away with a win in Dallas! I don't want you to win, I want you to win beautifully! If you have to fight a team like the Nets, then the championship will not be able to have your share! "Rick. Carlisle has been mobilising in the dressing room, and the managers may be more serious when playing against a strong team than against a weak team.

It doesn't matter if you lose to a strong team, but if you lose to a team that is at the bottom of the league, no one can afford to lose it. Therefore, it is often difficult for the fish belly team to win, in addition to their own lack of strength, another reason is that no one wants to lose to them, and each of their opponents will prepare very seriously. This undoubtedly increases the difficulty for the fish belly team to win.

So far this season, the Nets have a mere 6-16 record. To say that it is a fish belly team is completely understandable. When Chinese player Yi Jianlian was still playing for the Nets last season, the impression that the Nets were a "bad team" was deeply ingrained in the hearts of Chinese fans.

Even though the Nets now have All-Star forward Butler on the roster who was traded from the Mavericks, the Nets' record has not improved significantly.

Butler is indeed an All-Star, and he might be a good piece of the puzzle for a championship team, but Nets general manager Billy Brown. Kim used him as a giant, which is definitely inappropriate.

Judging by the current situation, Billy. Kim should regret it very much. I knew it now, so it was better to choose Yiyang to use it myself. Drafts like gambling, Billy. Kim clearly lost the bet this time. And now, he has to bear the consequences of losing the bet.

At half past seven in the evening of December 9th, the Nets' away game against the Mavericks officially began under the referee's whistle. Before the start of the game, Caron. Butler had a great time chatting with his former teammates, and even though he had only been with the Mavericks for less than a season, Butler still misses the team.

Will this All-Star small forward blame Yiyang? Of course not. It's not the first time Butler has been a professional student, and for him, it's just part of the business.

After the start of the match, the ball broke in the last game, and Tyson, the "boxing champion" who was able to return in this game, easily snatched the ball from the head of Da Lopez. Although Da Lopez is tall and has long arms, this guy really can't jump very much.

On the first offense, Kidd assisted Marion on Caron with a breakaway pointer. Butler scored a goal in front of his former teammate.

And this easy goal also became the tone of the whole game.

Five minutes into the first quarter, the Nets called a timeout, and by this time, the difference between the two sides was as much as seven points.

Moodier's eyes were fixed on the Mavericks' bench as he waited for the man to come out.

Sure enough, after the timeout, Yiyang took off his training uniform and stepped onto the court. At this time, countless Mavericks fans raised signs and Yiyang's cardboard avatar to cheer for this good performance of the Tanhua show!

Yiyang didn't disappoint his supporters after he came on the court, and as soon as this guy stepped onto the court, he stole Devin. Harris, on a long run, completed a tomahawk slash that ignited the entire Dallas.

Although Yiyang's violent buckle is not as exaggerated as Westbrook, it is also exciting enough. At that moment, Moodier couldn't help but raise his arms and stand up, watching the game live, and sure enough, it was completely different from watching the game in front of the TV!

As soon as he came up, Yiyang gave Harris enough "face". This No. 1 defender is different from Harris's Chinese teammate Yi Jianlian. He plays with more blood and more guts!

Harris, who was once abandoned by the Mavericks, is also energetic and is preparing to have a good fight with Yiyang. However, it backfired, and the war ended before it began.

In the ninth minute of the first quarter, the Nets' leading guard Devin . Harris suddenly fell to the ground during a breach, clutching his ankle in pain, unable to even stand up.

Replays from the big screen at the scene showed that Harris slipped on the sole of his foot during the breakaway, and his ankle bent at a terrible angle. This injury was purely accidental, and it had nothing to do with Yiyang, who was defending him.

Originally, the Nets were playing very hard, and now Devin. Harris also retired with an injury, and the suspense of this game was suddenly reduced by more than half.

Sure enough, there was a lack of an important offensive playmaking point, and the Nets were getting more and more chaotic. After the offense was messed up, the defense began to crumble.

While the big Lopez and Cuarón. Butler finally combined to score 45 points, but the scattered Nets still lost by a huge margin of 89-102.

Carlisle couldn't hold back his laughter when he shook hands with the Nets general manager after the game, which was a bit rude, but Carlisle's happy mood made him really unable to put away his smile. His players did it, not just winning, but winning beautifully.

Yiyang had 18 points, 11 assists and 3 steals in this unrivaled game, and he scored a double-double again after seven days. And Moodier, who sat in the stands and witnessed all these wonderful performances, was even more determined to take Yiyang as his goal.

11 straight wins, with an overall record of 19 wins and 3 losses. People are speculating about how long the Mavericks' winning streak will last!

After the game, Moodier took off the Mavericks' blue T-shirt and approached Yiyang to sign it. Naturally, Yiyang did not refuse Moodier's request, he not only wrote his name, but also added a sentence to it.

"Be brave and chase your dreams, Moody."

※※※

Moodier is starting to chase his dream, and Yiyang and the Mavericks must continue to move forward for the championship dream.

Two days after an 11-game winning streak at home against the league's bottom-of-the-table Nets, Yiyang once again faced Hayward and the difficult Deron Brown. Williams meet.

This time, Hayward played 20 minutes, but his scoring stats were always "0". Carlisle has studied Hayward's style of play this time and made special arrangements for him. Marion executed all of this quite well, so under Sloan's scolding, Hayward was replaced again and again. After being substituted again in the third quarter, Hayward, who had not scored a point in the whole game, did not get another chance to play.

In addition to Hayward, Yiyang also had a very hard time. Delong. Williams was determined to be ashamed, and he was in good form today.

In the whole game, Delong scored 34 points on Yiyang's head. This is also the highest score for Yiyang since he joined the NBA.

It turns out that there is still a gap between Yiyang, a rookie, and the real league's top defender. But thankfully, such a gap may not take a few years before it disappears.

Although Deron scored 34 points, the Mavericks defeated the Jazz for the second time 103-97 to extend the winning streak at home.

Nowitzki's 31 points and Terry's 22 points allowed Deron to score high points and lose Texas.

Although Yiyang was completely suppressed by Delong today, his 15 points and 6 assists were not miserable. Although 15 points is Yiyang's lowest since December, people will not be worried about the form of the rookie, and they know that the strong No. 1 guard will soon come back to his senses.

12 straight wins, 20 wins and 3 losses. The Mavericks' results surprised all the teams and critics across the league.

In the beginning, everyone wanted to fight the Mavericks, because no one from the fans to the opponents thought that the Mavericks were a strong team in the true sense of the word.

But now, everyone wants to avoid Mavericks. When you run into them, it's definitely a lot of bad luck.

Although the Mavericks won all the way, Yiyang, who was beaten by DeLong in this game, has become the only black spot for the Mavericks in the eyes of many critics.

Isn't it just creating a topic? The news of the Mavericks' victory is no longer enough to be a topic of conversation and news. So this time, the media and experts are going to bring something different to the fans......
