When the plane pierced the rain and fog and rushed into the sky. Yiyang looked through the window of the Boeing 757 plane, but could only see the boundless darkness.

The whole Mavericks team is like this plane, shrouded in darkness and completely hopeless. On the plane, everyone was sad. It was a shame to lose to Charlotte Bobcats.

But the past is gone, and Yiyang has listened to everything Carlisle just said in the locker room.

The NBA is actually the same as Wood, no one cares about your emotions, and no one cares if your father is in a pool of blood. All you can do is carry your hard shell and try to survive in that damn place.

The same applies to the NBA. Results speak for themselves, others don't care why you lose, they only care if you can win.

"Don't you sleep yet?" Just as Yiyang was looking out the window alone, Carlisle walked over to Yiyang's seat with a cup of coffee.

"Haven't you slept yet?"

"Me? I can't sleep. After all, my job is to shout twice during a game. But you're different, you're exhausted today. Carlisle said, sitting down next to Yiyang, adjusting the angle of the backrest by the way.

"Today...... Played badly. ”

"Obviously, so you have to sleep now, if you don't have the energy, how are you going to perform well tomorrow?" After saying that, Carlisle covered the stall under his armpit on Yiyang.

"The Jazz just beat the Miami Heat at home."

"So what? Didn't we beat the Miami Heat in the Finals last year? Don't think about it, rest for a while, the plane is still early to land. Carlisle got up with his coffee and turned off the reading light above Yiyang's head.

Is that call in the locker room too heavy today? Carlisle shook his head, the team that is in the transition period between the old and the new is the most difficult to bring.

"The Utah Jazz are finally waking up! After two straight wins, they crushed the Miami Heat with the Big Three at the Energy Solutions Arena last night! The likes of Millsap, Harris and Hayward have all had great performances, and tonight, they may be able to pull off the Mavericks with the underperforming Mavericks! ”

"Jerry. Coach Sloan had been in control of a team for more than any other coach in the league, and suddenly Sloan's era was over. But a lot happened after Jazz. Williams was traded, and it looked like the Jazz were going to fall apart. Tyrone. Coach Corbin took over a mess or, as one NBA team general manager put it, the center of the storm. But what happened recently has shocked everyone, and Coach Corbyn has followed Sloan's tactics but added new insights of his own. Corbyn has always been tough, tough and calm, and the Jazz have acquired similar attributes as a result. So we see that the Jazz are making great progress during this period and have a lot of momentum to return to the playoffs. They're by no means soft persimmons, and the Dallas Mavericks have to be careful. ”

On the big screen of the TV, a news about the Jazz is playing. But in the living room, no one was staring at the TV. The media's praise has no reference value at all. Hayward knew that he couldn't let up in the face of the Dallas Mavericks!

Although recently, their own team has been doing well, while the Mavericks have just experienced a four-game losing streak. But it's because the Mavericks have gone through a four-game losing streak that Hayward will have a lingering heart.

As a good friend of Yiyang in college, Hayward knew it very well. That guy is like a spring, and the more you press him, the harder you press, the higher he can bounce.

Just as Hayward was doing his morning workout, his phone suddenly rang. The white striker quickly looked out the window, and sure enough, a black Humvee car had been parked downstairs in his house.

Hayward stepped onto the balcony, and the people in the Hummer rolled down the windows. "Are you ready to make a big move? Let's go. ”

Paul. The Millsap family and Hayward were so close that they often went to the Energy Solutions arena together.

"Here we go!" The young Hayward responded loudly from the balcony, then turned off the TV and rushed out of the house......

A bus with the Mavericks logo on it drives through the streets of Salt Lake City, and whenever it passes, it attracts a group of pedestrians to stop and take pictures. And the closer you get to the Energy Solutions Arena, the fewer pedestrians are taking pictures. In its place, it's the middle finger of Jazz fans.

"Cheer up guys, I know it's not going to be easy for you guys to fight back-to-back. But just hold on one more night, one more night, and we'll be able to go home and get some rest! The Utah Jazz thought they were really soaring, no! Tell them who's the real boss! While still on the bus, Carlisle had already started to mobilize before the game. However, the effect is not very obvious.

The old guys are so tired, back-to-back fights and back-to-back defeats have worn down their confidence.

"Hey, you've all heard what the boss said! Cheer up, it's coming! You can't get off the bus and put on the face of a loser! "It was Nowitzki who mobilized again, and the players got a little bit more energetic. Sometimes, the star of the house may speak more effectively than the manager. Carlisle hopes that in the future, Yiyang can also be like Nowitzki, who can boost the morale of his teammates through words.

As soon as the bus stopped in the underground parking lot of the Energy Solutions Arena, the long-awaited crowd of reporters surrounded it. The court security guards were like big enemies, and they had to hold hands to build a human wall to open a way for the Mavericks players.

"Also, what do you think of the team's recent four-game losing streak!"

"Coach Carlisle, facing the mighty Tyrone. Corbyn, are you confident that you can lead the team out of the gloom!? ”

"Dirk! What is it that has put the team in such a difficult situation? After Kidd's injury, the team cut Delonti. West, isn't that a complete absence of subs? ”

The reporters chattered and asked, but naturally did not get any response from the Mavericks players.

Unlike usual, today, Yiyang is the one at the forefront of the team. In the past, he was the last to get out of the car.

Yiyang can't wait to hurry to the locker room to change clothes and then warm up, the darkness that surrounds the Mavericks, he wants to break it with his own hands!

"If the Utah Jazz win this game again, they will overtake the Houston Rockets and return to the top eight in the West!"

"That's right, Shaq, so already, the Jazz players are definitely going to be at their best. The Dallas Mavericks, who have lost four in a row, may be more than lucky. "Before the game started, TNT's live broadcast was already in the middle of the story.

Kenny. Smith, Charles. Ross Barkley and O'Neal were all on hand to bring the most dynamic commentary to the fans.

Kenny. Smith and O'Neal have been talking about the Jazz's good, and then stressed more than once that the Mavericks are going to lose. These two guys talk like they have noses and eyes, as if they can foresee the future.

"I say, both of you, stop! Before the game even started, you kept saying that the Mavericks were going to lose, and the Mavericks were going to lose! Come on, this is a basketball show! If you want to predict the future, you can simply go to USA Today talk show! Buckley, who was caught between the two, finally couldn't take it anymore, and he slapped the table with both hands, so that O'Neill and Kenny. Smith shut up instantly.

"We're not predicting the future of Charles, we're making a difference. The Mavericks injured Jason on their side. Kidd, and the players are in a very bad situation. Dirk. Nowitzki shot below 40 percent from the field for the second game in a row, and even his usual consistent performance in yesterday's game was just 17 points. Do you know what a 17-point pair is? This is his lowest score in a single game of the season! O'Neal's favorite thing is to raise the bar with Barkley, not to mention that he still has so many stats to back him up this time.

"Bala Bala, that's enough!" Barkley shook his head and played the scoundrel, who made the Mavericks play really badly lately? Shaq had the data to back it up, he didn't. But Barkley has a fat gall in his heart!

"I don't believe Coach Carlisle will make any adjustments after four consecutive defeats. The Mavericks have always been a team not to be left behind, and now they desperately need a win, so they're sure to fight hard. In particular, he is currently the youngest player on the Mavericks' roster, and at the same time the strongest. He'll bounce back later, but he's not just a German. Harris can stop it. ”

"I admit that he did become a star in the world at the slam dunk contest, but this is the NBA regular season Charles, not that he wants to bounce back, he will definitely be able to bounce back!" O'Neill is still in charge, and TNT's ratings have skyrocketed under the two guys' verbal battle!

"Well, I'm not going to talk to you so much Shaq. If the Mavericks lose five in a row today, I'll be wearing a wig to the game next time for the whole night! Barkley was stunned for a moment, then gently held his forehead. Suddenly, he remembered the bet he had made to kiss the donkey's ass. Woe comes from the mouth, woe comes from the mouth!

Kenny. Smith couldn't laugh straight at this time, and O'Neal on the other side naturally accepted the challenge without fear. "If the Jazz lose, I'll wear a purple wig to talk about the game!"

After the two commentators finished their bets, they both turned their heads to the arena in unison.

In the middle of the pitch, players from both sides were ready. Every round from now on will determine how Barkley and O'Neal will look the next day.

After Yiyang and Hayward embraced, they stood back in their place. He didn't know the bet between O'Neal and Barkley, and he wasn't in the slightest interest in what the two fat guys looked like in wigs.

"The essence of professional basketball is fucking victory!" Carlisle's words have been lingering in Yiyang's ears. Now in his eyes, there is only victory!
