Yiyang's hard work during All-Star Weekend finally paid off for him. Don't look at the $2.6 million that doesn't seem to be worth mentioning compared to those sky-high endorsement fees, but you have to know that Yiyang's price of getting this $2.6 million is just to take a few photos, at most a few short videos.

Yiyang's current salary for playing with the Mavericks is "only" only $4.13 million, and with a few photos, Yiyang can easily get the equivalent of playing for more than half a year. It can be said that the cooperation that Tuffy talked about for Yiyang is a deal that only makes money and does not lose money.

And the most refreshing thing for Yiyang is that Griffin, who targets him everywhere, was robbed of the fat contract that he was about to get his hands on. Debts must be repaid, this is Yiyang's code of conduct. And sometimes, this "taste" doesn't have to happen on the basketball court.

Early in the morning, he got such good news, and Yiyang's originally tired heart was also greatly encouraged. The 2012 NBA slam dunk king sat up from his bed and looked out the window at the sunshine of the new day, feeling energetic.

The day after the All-Star break, all teams across the league take a day off. Starting tomorrow, the NBA regular season battle will enter the most intense sprint.

Yiyang probably looked at the schedule for the next month or so, and it can be said that they will almost spend the rest of the season in back-to-back games. For him, back-to-back backs are barely enough. Yiyang is worried about whether the group of old guys around him can withstand the impact of continuous back-to-back schedules.

After eating a simple and healthy morning made by Wen Xue, with a big basketball bag from Adidas on his back, Yiyang went out, ready to adjust his condition after the All-Star Game.

In the past, Yiyang was the first to come to the locker room. Every day when he came, the door to the locker room was closed, and Yiyang would clean up the bench like Cardinal when he entered.

But today, when Yiyang walked to the door of the locker room, he found that the door of the locker room was hidden. Looking through the crack in the door, there was no light in the locker room.

"Is it rare that someone forgot to close the door when they left yesterday?" Yiyang scratched his head, it was the only possibility he could think of. Thief? No, there can be no thieves here. There is nothing particularly valuable in the dressing room, and the players' jerseys and boots are not prepared until the day of the game. Second, the security measures in the players' tunnel are very tight, and ordinary thieves have no chance to visit here.

With curiosity, Yiyang quietly pushed open the door of the locker room. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the smell of alcohol. Yiyang subconsciously covered his mouth and nose, and then turned on the light in the dressing room in the dark.

When the bright lights drove the darkness out completely, everything was revealed. Only to see Delonti. West's guy fell asleep leaning against his cabinet with a bottle in his hand, and in front of him was a miserable mess of vomit.

"Oh my god, what a fucking damn one!" Seeing this disgusting scene, Yiyang was a little sick to his stomach. He rushed out of the locker room and called for a couple of cleaners to come and clean up.

"George! George! Yiyang then rushed to the stadium's security center with his bag on his back, where he found George Brown, the chief security officer of the American Airlines Center Arena. Plath.

"What's the flustered about? Did any fans rush in and ask for autographs? When Yiyang found George, the black security guard was joking with Yiyang with a cup of coffee. The U.S. Route Center Arena has not had any major safety incidents for so many years, and every quiet day has also made this guy let his guard down.

"God, don't you know? Last night, one of the players stayed overnight in the dressing room! Aren't you supposed to make sure there's no one in the locker room, according to the rules? ”

“hat！？” Hearing Yiyang say this, George was taken aback. When he was patrolling the players' tunnel last night, he did see that the lights in the dressing room were completely off. If anyone is inside, he has to turn on the light. If you don't turn on the lights, it's completely dark.

"You and I'll go and see what has become of our locker room."

The two hurried through the bends of the players' tunnel and walked quickly to the door of the locker room.

"Damn it, what's that smelling like!?" As soon as he arrived at the door of the locker room, George's sense of smell was stimulated by the smell of alcohol mixed with the stench of vomit.

George struggled to get over the disgusting smell and looked into the locker room. While several cleaners have already started cleaning in the locker room, Delonti. West, however, still slumped in front of the locker like a piece of rotten meat.

"Yesterday...... I didn't know this guy was in there yesterday! Damn it! Did he just spend the whole night in the dark!? Looking at George's surprised expression, Yiyang could only shake his head helplessly.

Delonti. When West first joined the team, the veterans often told Yiyang that the guy was a neurotic with unstable mental state.

At that time, Yiyang didn't take this sentence seriously. Because for most of the season, West's performance was normal. While West has always been a maverick, at least he's never caused much trouble in the locker room. But now, Yiyang knows it. The words that the veteran players said to him before were not a joke at all!

West's hangover left the players almost an hour late to finally be able to use the locker room. And this has undoubtedly greatly affected Carlisle's training plan.

When West woke up, his eyes were still hazy. He was called directly to the office by the Cuban, and it was almost an hour before he came out of it.

That day, West didn't train and went straight back to the locker room to get dressed and go home. It is reported that this is Cuban and Carlisle gave him a day off. This time, the Mavericks handled West with relative gentleness. Aside from fines, there were hardly any penalties.

But this incident also indirectly led to a significant decline in the quality of the team's training that day. Carlisle was very unhappy with the training of his players that day, which also caused him to yell directly on the training ground.

The players' already bad mood has worsened, and tomorrow, they are about to take this not good form to face the incoming New Jersey Nets.

"Brooke. Lopez is perhaps the league's most versatile scoring center, with Brandon Brown. There's nothing Haywood can do about the Nets' star at all! ”

As soon as the commentator finished speaking, Lopez hit the board with a hook and scored again. Haywood angrily hammered the cushion on the basketball hoop to vent his emotions, and this was already his 28th point for Lopez!

After this goal, the Nets overtook the score again. In this game, the two sides took the lead a total of 18 times, and the process was quite miserable. But before the game, even Nets coach Avery . Johnson also said that the Nets want to crush the Mavericks on the road unless God helps.

Could it be that God has really manifested his spirit?

No, God, the old man didn't possess Lopez today. The reason why this game, which originally had no suspense, was scorching was entirely because the Mavericks except Yiyang performed so badly!

The Mavericks re-attacked, and Yiyang faced a panting Delon, and easily completed the breakthrough by blocking and dismantling. Deron seems to have completely changed since he came to the Nets, and he can no longer play the court-handling ability of the Jazz.

If the Nets didn't trade with the Mavericks back then, the one who is partnering with Lopez now may be Yiyang.

After Yiyang broke through, Nets power forwards Humphries and Deron both chased after Yiyang, while Nowitzki was completely empty.

Humphries didn't make up for it because he was jealous of Yiyang's favor by Kardashian, but today, Nowitzki's hand was very cold, and he would rather drop Dirk than make up for Yiyang!

Yiyang forced a layup under the attack of the two, of course, he was directly knocked to the ground by Humphries in the air, and the basketball naturally failed to hit.

Although he was given two free throws, Carlisle was not happy at all. Today, Yiyang is fighting ball by ball with his body. He fell again and again, and got back up again and again, which ensured that the score could remain in a scorching state.

If it were a normal time, Yiyang would definitely give the ball to Dirk. But today, Yiyang knows that if he wants to score, he still has a better grasp of breaking through.

"With the exception of Yi, no one on the Mavericks shot above 40 percent today. Dirk. Nowitzki had the highest shooting percentage of the rest of the guys, but only 36.8 percent. I don't know what's going on with the Mavericks, their form has plummeted. Perhaps, they haven't recovered from the cheerful atmosphere of the All-Star Game? ”

Unbeknownst to the commentators, West, who was sleepy-eyed on the bench at this time, was one of the reasons for the Mavericks' poor form.

Yiyang desperately fell to bruise all over his body to get two points, but when he came to the defensive end, he was easily overtaken by Lopez.

Haywood was almost psychologically shadowed by Lopez, and this time, Lopez used an unconventional move to suddenly throw in the three-second zone. While the toss was a bit ugly and looked like an amateur, that didn't hide the fact that Lopez had a soft touch. The basketball went through the net, and the two sides took the lead for the 20th time!

At the end of the game, Yiyang no longer had the physical strength to impact the inside line. Originally, he didn't get a break during the All-Star Weekend, and today he was the hardest fighter. Carlisle was worried about watching off the field, and he was afraid that Yiyang would be injured due to excessive exhaustion. But he also knows that if Yiyang is taken down, this game will be over!

At the last moment, Yiyang cut off Lopez's layup and used his last strength to run all the way to the basket and hit a layup, allowing the Mavericks to chase the difference to 1 point.

But then Lopez's mid-range fire allowed the margin to be stretched away.

The Mavericks' last attack, Yiyang was tragically caught by a double. There was no choice but to give the ball to Nowitzki, who was receiving from beyond the three-point line.

But Nowitzki's cold hand was still there, and his three-point shot stumbled out of the box. At the same time, the red light on the rebound comes on and the game is over......

After the game, Yiyang went directly to the wooden floor. He's so tired, it's probably one of the most tiring games he's played since entering the NBA. Others were unable to stand up, resulting in Yiyang having to take the lead alone. But unfortunately, Yiyang does not always save the team from fire and water.

"Brandon. Haywood actually allowed Lopez to score 38 points! 38 points! If Tyson were still around, the win would probably have belonged to the Dallas Mavericks! ”

"I don't know what Dirk is up to, maybe he thinks he can step back into the background? If he behaves normally today, the Nets won't get a chance! Hey, let's hope that tomorrow's back-to-back battles, the Mavericks can pull one back. ”

"I also scored 28 points, 8 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks today, but there is no way, basketball is a team sport. The performance of one person still can't hide the slump of the whole team. ”

The commentators were silent, and counting the loss against the Lakers before the All-Star break, the Mavericks were on a two-game losing streak. Hopefully, the "All-Star post-game syndrome" won't drag down the advantage that the Mavericks have built up for most of the season.

Although the night was very unpleasant, the Mavericks players didn't have time to adjust. As soon as the race was over, everyone boarded the flight to Memphis. Facing Lopez today, there will be a little Gasol waiting for them tomorrow.

On the plane, everyone's mood was not high. Carlisle could clearly sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the team. This season, the team is really not having a good time.

Odom has been completely marginalized by the team, and his impact on the team has gradually diminished. But who would have thought that now another Delonti has been killed. West.

The next day's FedEx Arena was also very unsmooth.

The back-to-back games were a bit overwhelming for the Mavericks' veterans, and the most heartbreaking thing was that Kidd sprained his ankle again during a breakaway in the second quarter and was forced to go down.

Kidd's injury meant Carlisle had to use Delonti. West came to replace the vacant position after Yiyang's departure.

During an offensive attack in the fourth quarter, Terry was ready to pass the ball to Yi Jianlian, who was in the open position, and let Yi Jianlian jump shot in the middle range.

However, Delonti. West, however, suddenly rushed to the passing route, "stealed" Terry's pass, and headed for the three-second zone himself.

This time, Gasol Jr. obtained a capped data for nothing. Terry gritted his teeth in anger, this guy West is completely a cancer on the field!

After that, West's performance was still a mess. There was no way, now that Kidd was not there, Carlisle had to overload Yiyang and continue to play.

However, even so, the Mavericks couldn't get through it. Yiyang's performance of 25 points, 9 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals couldn't resist the pace of consecutive defeats.

The aging of the Mavericks' roster and the tossing of the dense schedule were one of the reasons for the loss, but the contradictions between the players were an even more terrible fuse......

I thought that after shining in the All-Star Game, everything would go smoothly for the rest of the game. But for now, I'm afraid it's going to backfire.
