Dirk's rebound, Yiyang's three-pointer. Even though the referee stopped the match due to a problem with the timer, the enthusiasm of the fans was not extinguished in the slightest.

"Down with the Warriors! Down with the Warriors! Down with the Warriors! ”

The shouting of the fans continued for several minutes, and finally died down when the timer was resolved and the game restarted.

This ultra-long-range three-pointer is seen as Yiyang's response to Klay and Curry. Don't forget, who snatched your three-point title this year!

The Warriors won't be hit so easily, but there is no doubt that Yiyang's invisibly pretending to be a shot has boosted the Mavericks' confidence.

After that, Warriors small forward Barnes went inside, and the excited Gobert even fanned him to the ground with the ball, and he didn't foul!

After the offense passed, Yiyang's grounded pass allowed Dirk to single Green in the low post. Green does have a lot of strength, and Dirk will have a hard time leaning back.

However, Nowitzki is not the kind of inside line who only relies on his body to scare inward, seeing that Green's center of gravity is all in the back, Nowitzki directly retreats and shoots independently!

Green's overly short height made him unmatched by Randolph in the last round, let alone Dirk. The basketball went into the net crisply on Green's head, and the Mavericks scored in a row! In the blink of an eye, the Mavericks had already taken a six-point lead.

After the goal, Nowitzki roared again, and at this time he was like a golden lion king, ready to get his prey at any time!

"Green must now be very sorry for saying those things that defied Dirk before the game, and never underestimate a veteran. Just like Carter's corner win over the Spurs last season, you never know what kind of game a veteran will play. ”

In the first few minutes of the game, there was no doubt that the Mavericks were in the ascendancy. But if the Warriors can be defeated so easily, then they won't be able to get past the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies aren't a championship team, but they're like a filter. Those who can pass through their level are elites!

The Warriors' "Splash Brothers" are three-pointed, and this is the biggest trouble the Mavericks face. Although everyone in the league knows this, it is not easy to defend against Curry and Thompson.

In the next two rounds, Curry and Thompson began to attack. First, Thompson got the opportunity with his endless off-ball runs and Bogut's small-action off-ball pick-and-roll, and hit a three-point shot before Wade could catch up.

Subsequently, Curry borrowed Green's cover and made a direct three-point shot. This time, Yiyang has defended very quickly. If it weren't for the fact that there was a green across them, Yiyang even felt that he would be able to complete the cap.

However, even with that little space, Curry's three-pointer went in. The title of "perverted quasi" is not in vain!

Although the score was equalized, the Mavericks quickly found their rhythm and frequently attacked the interior. Although Bogut was named to the All-Defensive Second Team this year, he also has a strong ability to protect the rim. But the sluggish pace and the better-than-nothing bounce stopped Bogut's deterrent.

Yiyang and Wade's frequent breakthroughs made the Warriors helpless inside. Drummond. Although Green is fierce, in front of these two guards, the fierceness alone will not make any difference.

Yiyang and Wade scored one after another, and with 2 minutes and 48 seconds left in the quarter, Wade assisted Yiyang for a relay dunk in the air, and the "Yiwei Connection" ignited the scene and gave the Mavericks a 23-16 lead. Although Curry hit two three-pointers after that, the Warriors still trailed 31-24 in the first quarter. Iguodala continued to play well in the second team and didn't leave the Warriors with any chances.

"It was a great first quarter, even though the Warriors are now trailing by seven points. But 7 points is not a point difference at all for a team like the Warriors! "Mike. Brin is right, the Warriors are probably the most score-chasing team in the league. Any gaps will be filled quickly under their tidal onslaught.

After the first quarter was played, the tactical arrangements of both sides were also clear at a glance. The Mavericks, for their part, hope to rely on the super finishing ability of Yiyang, Wade, Nowitzki and Iguodala near the basket to score. And the Warriors are still the same, three-point shots!

As it stands, the Mavericks are a little more efficient. But after that, no one can say whether the Warriors will completely shoot. You know, Curry has already made a few three-pointers on Yiyang's head today. It turns out that not all players will be dumb in front of Yiyang.

"Stabilize the situation, and if you can, I hope you can keep the seven-point gap to the end!" Carlisle doesn't care if the game looks good or not, he needs a win, not a spectacle.

Even if the Mavericks played a mess for defense in the second quarter, as long as they could hold on to the 7-point advantage, it would be worth it!

After the start of the second quarter, the Mavericks' defense was really good. Green's strong attack under the basket was blocked by Dirk and missed.

Curry's three-point shot was almost blocked by Yiyang, but the serious interference still allowed Curry to shoot iron. Thompson, as Barkley had anticipated on the show, Carlisle asked Tony to be the best of the show. Aaron, however, dealt with Clay, and the effect was quite good.

But the Warriors' defensive intensity has also increased, and every time Yiyang breaks through, someone will make up for it in front of him. Sometimes it's Thompson, sometimes it's Barnes, sometimes it's Green. In short, it will not let Yiyang break through easily. It's the same with Wade. One of the great features of the Warriors' defense is that they have infinite turnovers. Because their players can really defend any position.

The two sides played hard, and the Mavericks maintained the lead, but the lead was not solid.

It wasn't until eight minutes into the second quarter that Kerr and Carlisle gradually replaced their main players. It seems that this is the end of the second quarter fight.

The Warriors brought on Livingston, a former high school rookie who replaced Curry. But Carlisle is more worried about Barbossa, the "Brazilian Lightning" than Livingston. The Brazilian guard used to be an important role in the Suns' peak, and even averaged 18 points per game at his peak! After drifting to the Warriors this season, Barbosa has also had occasional wonderful performances.

However, the first to score after the Warriors' second team came up was Livingston, who had suffered a major injury hit!

Livingston shook off old Carter from beyond the three-point line and went straight to the break. Then he used his height advantage to avoid Bowler's block and easily made a layup.

In the next round, it was Livingston who interfered with Carter's bottom corner jumper, the Mavericks' offense was blocked, and the Warriors counterattacked!

Despite his age, Barbossa is still very fast. He quickly passed the half court with the ball, and Baller thought the Brazilian would hit the basket on his own, so he leaned towards him intentionally or unintentionally.

However, Barbosa suddenly scored a point in the middle of a quick run and distributed the ball to Livingston. The latter made a layup and scored two rounds in a row!

"Rick!" Armstrong was a little nervous, and it was a terrible thing to lose points in two consecutive rounds in the playoffs.

Calle scolded and planned to put Mark in place of Barria to consolidate the defense.

On the next Mavericks offense, Iguodala was violated, but not enough fouls, so the Mavericks didn't make free throws. Taking advantage of this dead ball, Shervin. Mark is on the field. He has only one goal, to prevent the former high school rookie.

The result? As a result, Livingston scored again.

"Incredible, Sean. Livingston! Shoot from beyond the three-point line! Shervin. Mark's interference, it seems, doesn't work at all for Livingston! "Mike. Brin's mouth was wide open, scoring seven points in a row, which is normal for Curry, Klay, or Yiyang. But in Livingston, who is averaging only 5.9 points per game, it's very annoying.

"Damn it, how did you kill a guy like this again!" Carlisle was furious, but he wasn't angry with the players, he was angry with himself. finally suppressed the Warriors' starters, and now another bench has come to create a "surprise" for him. Mark's defense was pretty good just now, but Livingston just got the ball in, what can you do?

In fact, this is not the first time Livingston has surprised their opponents this season. Although this guy only averages 5.9 points per game, he knows that he has to give his best every minute, after experiencing ups and downs and almost saying goodbye to his basketball career.

So whenever the opportunity arises, Livingston can grab it! He occasionally cut a dozen or twenty points, and Cole would not be surprised.

"I'll get him." Yiyang said, shaking off the towel hanging around his neck. But Carlisle shook his head, in the second half, maybe there were more difficult moments than this, and Yiyang needed to deal with it!

That's what makes a strong team, like Carter, Iguodala and even Bazemore and Mark that the Mavericks occasionally come out of, and the Warriors, as a league powerhouse, don't expect their roster depth to be as weak as the Clippers.

Livingston and Barbossa occasionally bring some deadly performances.

It's like that with the benches, you don't have to play good stats every game. But once in a while, you can take someone's head!

Fortunately, old Carter wasn't a fuel-efficient lamp either. Livingston hit his shot so high that he even hit a bit like Jordan's mid-range shot, and Carter also received a pass from Mark and made two three-pointers.

In the last three minutes of the second quarter, the two teams were still tied.

56 to 56, half time, not enough time for them to separate the winner. The starting lineup was slightly better than the Mavericks, but the Warriors relied on the second team to pull one back.

It is impossible to predict the outcome of the two teams, because even after a real fight and a half, the outcome is still uncertain.

This is the strong dialogue, this is the collision between the first in the league and the second in the league. In the second half, maybe the Warriors' bench won't play as well again. But can you guarantee that their starters won't explode?

"It's a shame that we're seven points ahead!" At the end of the half, Yiyang shook his head slightly.

"Don't think it's going to be an easy win against the Warriors, it's going to be a tug-of-war for the whole series. Get ready, too. Carlisle was not surprised by this result, which is why he did not let Yiyang go up to defend Livingston just now.

Maybe in the fourth quarter of the game, there will be such a scorching moment. At that time, it was the time for Yiyang to show his strengths......
