Chapter 581: Boda, Black Cannon
Mirza. Telitovic, from the Socialist Republic of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, a country that can be said to be completely famous enough for the narrator to cut off his breath. But fortunately, there is a familiar abbreviation in this country, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Telitovic entered the NBA draft in 2007, and a big white man like him, who had little deterrent power under the basket and had an empty shot, was not popular in those days. Therefore, he was also directly defeated "unsurprisingly" that year.
But in the years that followed, Telitovic continued to grow and make a name for himself in Europe. And last season, with a three-year, $9 million mini-mid-range contract, he realized his NBA dream with the Nets.
After entering the NBA, Telitovic showed his strengths. His excellent shooting skills and ability to adapt to the NBA's three-point line allowed him to always make one or two three-pointers per game at the high post. Thus, Telitovic also received the Wave Black Cannon...... No, it's the domineering nickname of the Bosnian cannon.
Although he has temporarily gained a foothold in the NBA, Telitovic plays more of a tactical role on the court to help his teammates empty the interior. He averaged 3.5 points per game last season, which didn't really play much in the game.
This season, although Telitovic's scoring average has "skyrocketed" to 8.6 points per game, he is still not the kind of key person who can make the difference in the game. And that's why when Kidd asked him to play to open up the situation, he looked confused.
When will it be your turn to open up such a thing as an offensive situation? Pierce, Garnett, Johnson, Delon, Terry or even Kirilenko, which of these names is not louder than himself? Even if you want to open up the situation, it's up to them.
But today, Kidd really has to rely on Telitovic. Because of the fiery hand that Telitovic showed on the training ground yesterday, Kidd has high hopes for him.
Now the team is in passivity, and all the loud names are gone. Telitovic, who wanted to be an NBA star in 2007, finally got his first chance in life!
It wasn't until he high-fived Terry that Tlitovic realized that he had already helped the team break the scoreless situation! He succeeded, and it turns out that he can really do it!
"Don't take it lightly, be optimistic about your alignment!" Just when Telitovic was a little fluttery, Terry deliberately patted him on the ass and reminded him.
Telitovic was engrossed, and since the opportunity has come, it must be seized!
Yiyang didn't take Telitovic's three-point shot to heart, and he was still worried about Terry at this time. However, Marion's footsteps should be able to deal well with the big white man who has just come on the field and looks bulky.
So, as soon as Yiyang's toes stepped on the three-point line, he passed the ball directly and let Marion attack with the ball.
Marion did not hesitate after receiving the basketball, and accelerated to Tumirza. As Yiyang and Marion thought, he easily rushed over, and Mirza was as slow as a stake, and he had no ability to prevent a breakthrough.
But today, Mirza, whose confidence has soared, will not be so humiliated. He did his best to chase it up and jump at the same time as Marion, the first time he intended to block a layup from an NBA star.
It turns out that God is not too bad for those who work hard. Mirza's best defense paid off, and with his excellent reach, he covered Marion from behind, making the Mavericks' easy offense come to naught!
"Mirza. Telitovic, is he going to dominate both ends of the floor today!? The local Brooklyn narrators shouted excitedly, as if they had seen a savior.
Telitovic's erroneous block made both himself and the Nets morale high! As long as you work hard, the first place in the league is not invincible!
Blocking Marion's layup, Terry picked up the basket and started pushing straight away. This time he didn't pass the ball to Mirza, but to Delon.
DeLong also seemed to be motivated by the attack and defense just now, and he was very excited to play this time, playing a superb rhythm of ball control in front of Yiyang. A sudden change of direction accelerated, which caught Yiyang off guard. Coupled with Blatche's blocking, Delong successfully broke through Yiyang for the first time today!
After the breakthrough, Gobert was ready to defend the no-fly zone he was guarding. Marion also unconsciously shrinks inside, which is a normal reaction when the defense breaks through.
However, after stepping into the three-second zone, DeLong jumped up and quickly passed the ball to the right corner. The ball passed so fast that even Yiyang didn't have time to steal.
Telitovic had a second shot from beyond the three-point line today, and if he misses a shot from the open spot, it will be a fatal blow to the team's morale.
However, Telitovic did not let that happen. He made a steady move, his expression full of confidence. If you can get one, why can't you get into the second?
The arc of the basketball is so high that it is impossible to judge whether it can be hit or not. The last time I scored, it was the second time the basketball hit the front of the basket and then fell down for the second time. But this time, Telitovic, who was not disturbed in any way, directly threw a hollow ball!
"Beautiful! Telitovic's second three-pointer of the game, the Nets scored six points in a row, and the gap was instantly reduced to two points! Hahaha, the Nets are starting to fight back, and they refuse to surrender! ”
The originally lifeless Barclays Center is full of life again, who would have thought that this big man in Bosnia-Herzegovina would be able to shoulder such a heavy responsibility?
Kidd happily flailed his fist, using no suspicion, no suspicion, this is what he learned from Carlisle. Every player on the team, even the "water cooler manager" at the end of the bench, has a day when he can make a difference.
Carlisle was suddenly replaced by Cardinal in the finals that year, which made Bosh deflated. Today, Telitovic is Cardinal who belongs to Kidd!
After an attack, Yiyang's mid-range pull-up jump shot stabilized the situation for the Mavericks. But that hasn't dampened the Nets' enthusiasm for chasing points, and their offense has been revitalized by Telitovic.
In the following game, Terry really showed his talents, hitting a shot from beyond the three-point line, and also relied on a two-point shot with Telitovic.
The excellent play of these two bench players allowed the Nets not to be stretched too far in the end. 28-24, the first quarter ended, and the Brooklyn Nets fought tenaciously to make them only 4 points behind!
In the second quarter, Telitovic started directly! Today, Paul. Pierce's such a big name has to be his replacement.
Originally, Carlisle thought that after replacing Nowitzki, Telitovic, who had lost his height advantage, would be dumbfounded. However, as Terry said, this guy feels so hot today!
In the third minute of the second quarter, Telitovic played. He received DeLong's ball and was ready to shoot, but Nowitzki, who was tall and long-armed, had already pounced.
As a goalscorer, Telitovic is well aware that the rhythm of his shot is very important. If the rhythm is interrupted, it will not be worth the loss.
So, Telitovic, who shot with confidence, had the courage to shoot decisively against Dirk's defense!
Dirk found that even if he wanted to block this guy, it was not so easy. In the next second, the sound of the Nets tumbling came from behind Dirk, and Telitovic hit another three-pointer!
"The Bosnia-Herzegovina artillery is in full swing today! The game was only in the second quarter, and he had already scored 9 points! And this three-pointer made the advantage that the Mavericks had almost established come to naught again. ”
Yiyang looked at the big man in Bosnia and Herzegovina in surprise, we can't just let your little-known guy stop us from winning 17 consecutive victories!
As a result, Yiyang took the initiative to break through in the next round of attack and tried to enter the interior line to make Telitovic foul. There is no better way to curb the play than to simply not let the opponent play.
Just when Yiyang jumped inside and made a layup, Garnett rushed out and took the initiative to help Telitovic carry the foul and knock Yiyang to the ground. After the foul, KG did not forget to habitually release harsh words.
"Stay away from our X-weapon, or I won't be able to guarantee that your ribs will remain intact next time!"
Yiyang ignored Garnett, who was known for spewing trash. Sometimes he just squirts and doesn't really do anything. But he didn't let Telitovic get a foul on his back, which annoyed Yiyang.
Two free throws and two free throws helped the Mavericks regain a five-point lead. But the game was played so anxiously, and it was clearly not what everyone on the Mavericks wanted to see.
Subsequently, Telitovic became a point of threat that no one dared to let go. With him pinning down the Mavericks' defense, the Nets' offense is also a lot easier.
Under Kidd's command, Terry and Delon finally got to work. And Telitovic's continued good touch allowed him to kill all sides on the offensive end today!
Three-point shot, accurate. There is also the middle distance. There was even another time when Telitovic, who played confidently, sat inside and leaned on Nowitzki to score a hook!
Today, the Nets' $88 million luxury tax star roster is nothing as dazzling as Telitovic! He became the offensive backbone of the Nets, even Terry and Delon couldn't match!
During this period, Carlisle also thought of a lot of ways. But none of them can completely curb Telitovic's play. It's not uncommon for role players to explode in a game. It's just that Carlisle didn't expect that this unfortunate thing would actually bump into the Mavericks, who are eager to win 17 in a row!
In the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, Telitovic hit his seventh three-pointer of the day from beyond the three-point line! This three-point shot allowed the Nets to move the score to 95 at a critical moment!
"Great Mirza, he is simply the king of Brooklyn today! Jordan New York! Barclay's Larry. Bird! The local Brooklyn commentator directly attached the word "Great" and all sorts of bluffing names to Telitovich. It can be seen from this that the Bosnian and Herzegovina are playing miraculously today.
He scored 34 points, shot 66.7 percent from the field, and made 7 of 11 three-pointers. In addition, he also contributed 6 rebounds and 1 block. I have to admit that, at least today, Telitovic is worthy of all the titles!
With Telitovic's seventh three-pointer, a frustrated Carlisle called the game to a halt. Today, even if Telitovic Jordan is possessed, he will not allow the team to lose to such a role player! If you lose, it will be a great shame for the calf!
"Look at Coach Carlisle's annoyed face! Telitovic scared the Mavericks! Isn't it threatening to win more than just 17 consecutive wins!? So today, he beat Telitovic! Now, Telitovic's individual score has surpassed him by 6 points as an MVP! Believe me, Telitovic will be able to lead us to victory! "The more the Mavericks and Yiyang are deflated, the happier the local commentators in Brooklyn become.
The arrogant New Yorkers have always looked down on teams in other cities, and today Telitovic played the best performance of his career, which gave them arrogant capital! In the past few days, people are always looking forward to who can stand up and teach Yiyang a lesson. Today, this man has finally appeared!
"Rudy, I want you to defend against Telitovic!" As soon as the Mavericks players arrived, Carlisle made a bold decision!
"Me!?" Gobert pointed at himself in confusion and asked him to leave the box where he was good and go to the high post to defend?
"That's right, Telitovic has almost no ability to break through and attack with the ball, so you don't have to worry! If he dares to shoot, you give him a taste of hot pot! Carlisle burst into a foul mouth at a rare moment, and it seemed that he was really by Telitovic.
"Also, on the offensive end, increase the number of shots you take. In the last two minutes, I want you to finish the game! Carlisle clenched his fingers into fists, and he didn't want to play with the Nets anymore. In this game, the winner should have been decided a long time ago!
Yiyang nodded, I don't know if it was influenced by Telitovic, the morale of the Mavericks was a little low. And this also caused the shooting rate of teammates to start declining.
Nowitzki and Iguodala both shot only 30% from the field today, and if it weren't for the fact that they had already scored 28 points and the Nets had too few offensive points, the Mavericks would probably not even be able to hold on to the tie now.
Don't look at Yiyang's expressionless face, but in fact, he wants to turn the situation around as quickly as he likes Carlisle.
Yiyang can accept being suppressed by Terry, suppressed by Garnett, and suppressed by Pierce. But lost to Telitovic? No, this is unacceptable!
At the end of the timeout, the Brooklyn fans collectively chanted Telitovic's name. At this moment, he is the hope of all Brooklyn fans!
Yiyang gritted his teeth and was the first to step into the court!
In the last two minutes of the game, 95 draws. The Mavericks attacked first, and Yiyang took the basketball from Gobert.
Telitovic? Your show time is over. Next, I'll show you what a true superstar is!
When Yiyang is provoked, the Mavericks' opponents usually don't end well.
Kidd and Terry are still happy that they have successfully activated the X-factor of Telitovic, but they don't know that at the same time, this also detonates Yiyang's powerful TNT bomb!
