The first day of the intense playoffs passed, and there were four NBA games on that day, almost every one of which was full of excitement.

by MVP candidate Derek. The Chicago Bulls, led by Rose, defeated the Pacers as expected. Rose's all-around statistics of 39 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists made the 22-year-old guy proud.

People are eager for this No. 1 to be the next Michael of Chicago. Jordan, for now, Chicago fans may not be disappointed.

On the same day, the Heat, with their Super Big Three, easily crushed the 76ers. Evan. Turner's performance continued to decline, scoring just two points. And Yiyang, who was selected after him, cut down two pairs.

In another game, the "monster" Howard, who slashed 46 points and 19 rebounds, lost to the Atlanta Hawks without helpers. The loss in this game may make it more difficult for the Magic to renew Howard's contract.

Of course, the most high-profile game of the first game day had to be the battle between the Trail Blazers and the Mavericks.

Until the last minute before the end of the game, no one dared to predict who would be the winner. The two sides fought very fiercely, the game was full of ups and downs, and there was a lot of suspense. Aldridge's steady play, Yiyang's perseverance in the first three quarters of the game, and Nowitzki's miracle of 18 points in the final quarter all made this game full of endless topics.

Of course, the most unusual thing about this game is the verbal exchange between the two sides at the press conference after the game. Although the two teams did not attend at the same time, the words of McMillan and Carlisle still made the headlines of major sports newspapers the next day.

"Nate. McMillan: Losing to the Mavericks was just bad luck. ”

"Rick. Carlisle: The Trail Blazers win is the underdog! ”

The aggressive language of these two managers naturally brought the entire series into the spotlight.

So, the day after the game, when Mavericks assistant coach Stotts knocked on the door of Carlisle's office, he saw a very strange scene.

"Rick, what are you doing?" Carlisle's desk was piled with newspapers, and Carlisle was reading one of them with relish.

"As you can see, read the newspaper." Carlisle didn't turn his head and continued to read the words of the newspaper in his hand.

"You weren't used to that, man."

"Would you like to take a copy of it too? I just found out today that these newspapers are even more brilliantly written! McMillan and I could simply say a few words, and the reporters would be able to stretch out a whole page of text! It turns out that this is the reason why Carlisle is so keen to read the newspaper today. He never knew that journalists had such a strong ability to make up the news.

In the pen of the reporters of various newspapers, Carlyle and McMillan have almost become a pair of bitter enemies. But in reality? There was no personal vendetta between the two, they just said those things to be able to win.

"How are the players in mood?" After reading the newspaper in his hand about the war of words between himself and McMillan, Carlisle got up from behind his desk and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window where the training ground could be observed. While watching the players on the training ground, he chatted with Stotts.

"It's not bad, a few veterans who didn't perform well enough in the last game haven't been affected psychologically." Stotts, who was standing beside Carlisle, replied.

"Well, he's okay?"

"The team doctor has thoroughly examined and there are no injuries at the moment. Hey, Rick, those words from yesterday's press conference weren't your style. Stotts was still puzzled, after all these years of following Carlisle, this guy had never taken the initiative to choke on others. But yesterday, he actually responded so violently to McMillan's remarks.

'I just hope the media will focus on me and then leave some space for the players. In particular, he is still just a rookie and is easily distracted by external factors. Now it seems that I did a good job. Carlisle finished speaking, and turned his head to reveal a mouth full of white teeth. Stotts shook his head, sure enough, Carlisle, this guy, would never do something for no reason.

Wrath? No, Carlisle would never make a decision because of his emotions. Even if McMillan's words did make Carlisle angry, he wouldn't do that.

"Let's go, man, it's time for us to go to the training ground." As Stotts pondered, Carlisle patted his assistant on the shoulder.

The two guys walked out of the office and only by being with the players could they really understand the state of the players at this point.

After yesterday's game, the Mavericks have two days to adjust until April 19 before the second game between the two sides begins.

Due to the abundance of time, the consumption of the players yesterday was too great. So today, Carlisle didn't have any high-intensity training scheduled. The main thing is to do some restorative exercises, and after noon, the players are free to move.

Although it is the middle of the playoffs, it stands to reason that the training should be tighter. But Carlisle didn't think so, and the nervous mood was not conducive to the game. Too much intensity of training will make the players play abnormally on the field.

After a brief lunch provided by the team, the players left the stadium and came back to training on time the next morning.

Yiyang didn't go home directly today, but went to Moodier's house in person and handed over the playoff package to his "little" friend.

Originally, Yiyang wanted to send the tickets to Moodier at the beginning, but at that time, Moodier was also playing his own continental finals and was not in Dallas. So, in order to prepare for the game with peace of mind, and also so that Moodier can receive the tickets in person. Yiyang chose to give the ticket to this guy who is very similar to himself today.

Moodier only led his team to the continental championship yesterday, and today he received such a perfect gift, this guy can't be happier.

Yiyang is also very happy, because compared to when they met at Christmas, Moodier seems to have grown a lot taller and stronger. While the body isn't all there is to basketball, it's definitely the foundation of the basics.

Judging from the current growth rate of Moodier, in the future, Moodier will at least have a physical fitness that can play professional basketball.

The Moodier family was naturally very enthusiastic to keep Yiyang to finish eating, but Yiyang still politely refused. Because today, the Moodier family is not the last stop in Yiyang......

A large white monument stretched across Vignary's eyes, and the girl pulled out her phone and took a selfie with the monument. The monument is designed to be suspended from top to bottom and surrounded by four sides, and the interior of the monument is only a black marble with the name of former U.S. President John F. Kennedy carved in gold.

That's right, the monument in front of Vignarie is the famous Kennedy Monument in Dallas. At this time, Vignali was in the crowded Kennedy Memorial Plaza, waiting for Yiyang's arrival.

When Yiyang saw Vignali, Vignari was dressed like an ordinary girl. A simple black T-shirt and ordinary skinny jeans. If you want to say the most unusual thing, it may be that in addition to high heels, this girl wears basketball shoes the most.

Vignari was wearing only a light amount of makeup and a shawl with long hair today, and the only thing she used to hide her face was probably a pair of wide sunglasses.

"It's not good to have a lady wait every time." Vignari spotted Yiyang, who was staring at her not far away, and walked up generously.

Yiyang raised his hand and was about to say "Hi" to Vignary, however, he felt two balls of meat suddenly touch him. Looking down, the Italian girl didn't greet Yiyang, but directly gave him a big hug warmly.

In the crowded Kennedy Memorial Plaza, a man and woman embracing each other are unobtrusive. What's more, no one could have guessed that celebrities like Yiyang and Vignali would go on a date in such a "down-to-earth" place.

The date location was decided by Yiyang, and he did not hesitate to report the name of Memorial Square on the phone, because for Yiyang, who trains every day in addition to training, this is the only date he can think of in Dallas.

It's the playoffs now, and Dallas naturally attracts a lot of foreign tourists. And this square does not charge any entrance fees, which is famous and affordable, so there are always large groups of people here.

But it is precisely because there are so many people who come here to visit that this place is not at all related to "romance". From a distance, it may be fine, but when you get closer, you find that it is full of people, noisy and bustling. But the good thing is that in the crowd, no one will find out what the identity of the man and woman wearing sunglasses is. Yiyang and Vignari don't have to worry about them being disturbed.

"I feel your heartbeat, what are you nervous about?" Seeing Yiyang's face turn slightly red, Vignari hugged her tighter.

"No, we ...... Let's go! ”

The two walked around the square arm in arm, and Vignari was always easily attracted to the little things on the side of the road.

Buying an ice cream or seeing a handicraft stall will make this Italian girl excited.

Whenever Vignari left Yiyang's side, Yiyang would always take out her phone and take pictures everywhere.

Vignari couldn't believe that Yiyang had lived in Dallas for more than half a year, and looking at him taking pictures everywhere, he looked like a Chinese visiting Dallas for the first time.

The two chatted like this, while shopping arm in arm. Every now and then stops, then move on.

When the two of them came to a place surrounded by a crowd, they both stopped themselves.

With the start of the playoffs and the Mavericks' victory, the basketball atmosphere in Dallas is also quite strong at this time.

And this place surrounded by crowds is a street court with only half a field and a basketball hoop.

Inside the court, the famous NBA star "Glove" Gary. Peyton is holding the microphone to host. It was like a street basketball game sponsored by Sprite, and at this point, the game went into halftime. During the halftime performance, Peyton was holding the microphone, preparing to choose a guy from the crowd who could dunk to perform for everyone.

Interacting with the crowd on the sidelines is a very important part of a good basketball atmosphere in the United States. And the basketball talent in the United States is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, maybe there are really some guys who can perform beautiful dunks in this group of audiences.

"Is there any of you who can surprise me? You can come up! I can cooperate with you, but you must come up with a dunk that will dazzle everyone! "Payton's presence here as a former NBA superstar is certainly very compelling. And there are a lot of people who want to dunk in front of Payton and countless cameras, but not everyone has the courage to do so.

"Yi, you go and try it!" Vignari suddenly shouted excitedly in Yiyang's ear.

"Huh? I'll be recognized! Yiyang hurriedly waved his hand.

Vignari looked around and borrowed a Mavericks baseball cap from a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy and put it on Yiyang's head.

"Baseball cap and sunglasses, they won't recognize you! Go, I want to see Peyton's surprised expression! ”

Before Yiyang could react, Vignari grabbed Yiyang's hand and raised it high.

"Oh, looks like we have volunteers!" Peyton saw the arm raised in the crowd, and as soon as he said this, everyone's eyes focused on Yiyang.

"Come on, man! Now that you've raised your hand, don't be afraid! Peyton in the venue waved at Yiyang with the microphone, and the people around him also began to shout and make way for Yiyang.

"If I'm recognized, none of us will want to leave this place." Yiyang shook his head, and then handed his phone and other belongings to Vignary.

Under the shouting and pushing of the crowd, a yellow-skinned "masked man" walked onto the court.

Vignari notices that Yiyang's phone screen is still on, and wants to help him turn it off. But when the Italian girl saw the contents of the album on Yiyang's phone that had not yet exited, her smile froze.

It turned out that Yiyang raised his mobile phone to take pictures, and it was not a scene that he photographed. Yiyang's subject today has only one main character, Valentina. Vignary.

She looks around in her sunglasses, she frowns and speaks, she licks the ice cream happily, she strokes her hair, she smiles...... What about the view of the streets of Dallas? No, not a single photo shows the city. It's all her, and in Yiyang's eyes, it's all her......

Looking at it, Vignari smiled, and smiled very happily. This cold boy turned out to have such a side.

"Can you do it? Buddy. At the same time, Payton on the court began to hold the painting to arouse the atmosphere of the scene, and Yiyang was about to start dunking......
