"I repeat, the Dallas Mavericks are a strong team! They currently have a 29-9 record, which is even better than ours! If anyone else thinks the Mavericks are a worthless opponent, then I urge you to forget about it! After all, I don't want to be an idiot who gets laughed at after losing! Before the start of the game, "Zen Master" Jackson began to do pre-game mobilization in the locker room. Tactical stuff, enough has been said these days. Phil. Jackson only hopes that his team will not take it lightly, and although the Mavericks lost badly in the last game, it was not the true level of the Mavericks after all.

"Phil was right! This is our home turf! Failure is unacceptable! After Jackson finished speaking, Bryant also stood up and yelled at his teammates.

The "Zen Master" looked at the state of the players in front of him with satisfaction, as long as the Lakers themselves do not drop the chain, then this game will be nine out of ten!

When the players of both sides have warmed up and are ready to start the game, the Lakers official also set up a special introduction ceremony for today's game.

When introducing the Mavericks' starters, the tone of the live DJ was as flat as water, and the arrogant Los Angeles fans didn't react to the names.

When the home team's starters were introduced, the lights dimmed and only one spotlight shone on the Lakers' bench. The music played, and the cheers of the fans seemed to be about to tear down the ceiling of Staples. The DJ shouted the name of every starter with passion, and every player on the pitch would make the shouts of the scene an octave higher.

Finally, when the defender in the No. 24 gold jersey walked onto the pitch, Yiyang felt the sound from the stands almost crack his eardrums.

I have to admit that this is the most shocking player introduction ceremony that Yiyang has ever experienced. And the official purpose of the Lakers is also very simple, through the fiery introduction ceremony, continue to put pressure on the Mavericks players!

Finally, all the lights on the scene were restored, and the players of both teams were already standing in their designated positions. Although Yiyang was sitting on the bench, his heart couldn't stop beating. Playing against the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA, a scene that could only appear in dreams before, has now become a reality!

"Hello audience friends, welcome to ESPN! I'm Mike. Brin, next to this is my partner Jeff. Van Gundy. This much-talked-about battle of the western powerhouses is about to begin! Jeff, what do you think is the key to the Mavericks' victory in this game? "Mike. As soon as Bryn's voice comes out, it always feels very intimate. After all, when you play NBA2K games, you hear his recorded commentary.

When Mike. When Brin asked the question, the ESPN director immediately turned the camera on Nowitzki and typed out Nowitzki's horrific stats from yesterday at the bottom of the screen. Obviously, the director thought that Van Gundy would say that Nowitzki's performance would be the key to whether the Mavericks can win, so he accompanied such a shot.

But Van Gundy seemed to be very "uncooperative", and as soon as he opened his mouth, the director immediately cut off the picture.

"There is no doubt that Yi's play will be the key to the Mavericks' victory in this game. The Mavericks don't have a lot of personnel at the No. 2 position, and although Terry has been playing at the No. 2 position, we all know that he will suffer a lot from playing the No. 2 position on the defensive end. So today, if nothing else, he will also have a direct chance to match Kobe. How he dealt with Kobe Bryant, this is the highlight of the game, and the key to the game! Taking the "funny" style route is different, ESPN's commentary is more "academic" style. The commentators are meticulous and the analysis of the game is relatively comprehensive.

After Van Gundy finished speaking, he pushed his glasses, and the referee was ready to throw the ball at this time, and the big battle was about to start!

The referee blew the whistle, and Bynum took the lead in dialing the basketball with his fingertips, and the Lakers won the first attack in the game.

"Old Fish" Fisher began to push slowly, and everyone on the Lakers team immediately ran, including Kobe Bryant.

People often say that Kobe Bryant is alone, but in fact, Kobe doesn't have much possession, he just has more shots. So now Kobe Bryant is not in a hurry to hold the ball, but continues to run to find opportunities.

Fischer paused outside the three-point line and instead of passing the ball to Kobe, he played the ball to the Spanish tower Paulo who was going to be in the position. Gasol.

Terry hurriedly picked up his pace and tried to stretch out his arm to not give Gasol a chance to pass the ball to Kobe. As the "axis" of the triangle strategy, Gasol's ability to respond to the middle distance is very good. So Terry didn't dare to slack off, if Kobe Bryant was allowed to hold the ball, then the defense would be half the failure.

But surprisingly, the Spaniard didn't choose to pass the ball, but instead sat back sharply, pushing Nowitzki back a big step. This guy is going to play singles!

After taking two hard steps in, Gasol turned and hooked his hands. Dirk tried his best to block, but the Spaniard's soft touch helped him successfully score the ball.

As soon as it opened, the Lakers scored in the three-second zone in such a tough way. And this, too, is Phil. Jackson's deliberate arrangement. From the first second of the game, he was going to put pressure on Nowitzki!

"It's okay, it's okay, play patiently, we play patient on the offensive end!" Carlisle didn't get frustrated by conceding a goal, and he yelled at Kidd on the sidelines that he hoped his team could get back the two points he had lost on the offensive end.

Phil. Jackson found Gasol on his first offense, and Carlisle also chose to hit the ball inside on his first offense.

After Kidd's organization, the basketball was finally safely delivered to Nowitzki. It can be seen that when Nowitzki has the ball, Bynum has help under the basket, but he won't easily get caught up. To put it bluntly, Jackson is really relieved to let Nowitzki shoot outside. I don't know if he is too confident in Gasol's defense or if he is really not optimistic about the German's form.

Nowitzki's ability to read the game is naturally strong, and if he breaks through the basket, he basically has no chance of scoring under the combination of the Lakers and the two towers. Nowitzki took a step back, causing Gasol's center of gravity to move back, but suddenly retreated and rolled over for a jumper.

Yiyang on the bench stared at the basketball, and when the ball flew halfway, he shook his head slightly.

"Boom!" Sure enough, the sound of striking iron spread in the Staples Center, but it was not Kobe Bryant who struck iron today, it was Dirk!

"Hey." Carlisle waved his hand reluctantly, although missing a goal didn't mean much. But the start was not good, and all the coaches would not like it.

After that, it was as if it was going according to the script, and Phil. Jackson is the director of this good play.

Unlike Carlisle, who travels from the sidelines to the sidelines, the "Zen Master" is like an old man watching a play, sitting motionless on his bench. The situation on the court is completely controlled by the Lakers, whether it is offense or defense, the Mavericks can't take advantage of it.

Nowitzki is still struggling on the offensive end, which has also led to a big impact on the Mavericks' overall offense.

Mike. Brin and Van Gundy Jr. shook their heads repeatedly, and after Nowitzki returned from injury, his condition was really not so easy to adjust.

The first quarter lasted five minutes, and in just five minutes, the Lakers stretched the margin to seven points. And in the past five minutes, Kobe Bryant hasn't attacked much.

When Artest hit a dribble with a stumbling layup, Carlisle finally called the game off. The 9-point difference put the Mavericks in danger as soon as they started.

"Although the Mavericks have a better record, it is clear from the five-minute duel that the defending champions are more in control of the game. They did a good job defensively, and Phil's tactics allowed the Lakers to try to cut the connection between the Mavericks players and force everyone to play alone. But singles is not the Mavericks' specialty on the offensive end. "Mike. Brin also took advantage of the timeout to explain to fans why the Mavericks dug themselves another hole for no apparent reason.

"The point is that Dirk's offense didn't live up to expectations, which made the whole Mavericks run extremely poorly. We can see that he has also taken off his training uniform, and he should be about to play. Hopefully, the Mavericks will be able to upset the balance in Staples. Van Gundy helped his glasses, even if he was biased, in short, this guy is particularly optimistic about the Tanhua show from China. After all, Van Gundy Jr., who used to coach Yao Ming, is one of the commentators in the league who knows Chinese players best.

"Oh? Did the kid play? At the end of the timeout, when Kobe, who returned to the court, saw Yiyang replacing Kidd, the No. 24 also smiled excitedly. The legendary man who "exchanged two James", Kobe Bryant wants to see how capable he is on the field.

In the Staples Center, the huge Lakers logo is in the middle of the court. When Yiyang controlled the ball past half court, he couldn't believe that he really stepped on the logo of the Los Angeles Lakers.

The shrill boos of the Los Angeles fans lingered around Yiyang, and the strong Fischer looked fierce in front of him.

Yiyang let out a big breath, and his eyes immediately became focused. I saw Yiyang stretch out his hand and beckon, as if he had called a block. Through the afterglow, Fischer also saw that Nowitzki seemed to be on his left.

Yiyang alternately dribbles with his hands, and suddenly accelerates!

Fischer hurried around the pick-and-roll, and instead of squeezing in front of Nowitzki, he went around behind Nowitzki. Dealing with this kind of guard who likes to break through and doesn't shoot very much is the most effective way to defend the pick-and-roll.

Bynum has also helped defend the basket, and at the same time blocked Chandler's inside route, without giving "The King of Fighters" and Yiyang a chance to play empty. Bryant on the flank also stared at the yellow-skinned No. 1, ready to help defend at any time. In Phil. Jackson here, Yiyang definitely enjoys the treatment of a superstar.

Everyone thought that Yiyang would break through, after all, breakthrough is what Yiyang is best at. Whether it is to break through the frame or break through the ball, it needs to be premised on Yiyang's successful breakthrough.

Yiyang saw Fischer go around behind Dirk, but he suddenly stopped suddenly, stopped the car, and then took a step back diagonally and retreated back to the three-point line.

The leisurely "Zen Master" immediately widened his eyes, this was the first thing he expected today, Yiyang's action, could it be ......

A fake breakthrough and fake blocking and dismantling allowed Yiyang to completely shake off Fischer. Yiyang stepped back and jumped directly at the top of the arc outside the three-point line, and shot a three-point shot in the open position.

"I also chose to shoot a step-back three-pointer!?" Mike. Brin's tone was one of questioning, as he couldn't believe that Yiyang would choose to attack in such a way.

In the past two games, Yiyang has shot outside the three-point line a total of 5 times. Even with such a small number of shots, Yiyang's three-point shooting rate in these two games was 0%, and he didn't score a single goal.

But Nowitzki smiled, and you don't know how much this guy shot from beyond the three-point line on the night he lost to the Grizzlies......

The basketball was softly thrown by Yiyang, and Kobe Bryant immediately turned around and stared at the basketball that began to fall.

"It's fucking ......" Carlisle was ready to scold, but the next second, the basketball crashed hollow into the net.

"What the fuck...... Strike! After hitting the three-point shot, Carlisle suddenly raised his arm and shouted loudly!

"In! I actually entered! Oh my God, he completely defeated Fischer from beyond the three-point line! As soon as he got on the court, he gave the Lakers a slap in the face, this guy is really good! "Mike. Brin was full of passion, and Yiyang's three-point shot completely ignited this game.

Nowitzki excitedly high-fives Yiyang, the only guy who knows how hard Yiyang is working. When others are complaining about failure, Yiyang is using sweat to avoid failure again!

"You're just as accurate as you were when you practiced!" The German touched Yiyang's head.

Yiyang didn't respond, but opened his arms and lowered his center of gravity, ready to stop the attack of the Zijin army.

Kobe Bryant saw Yiyang's serious eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. That number one is really interesting......
