The near-perfect defensive line of DeLong and Yiyang even made Carlisle feel that the effect was better than Wade's starter. At least Deron is on the floor, and the Mavericks can have one more three-point threat point. The more three-point threat points, the larger the space, the more conducive to Yiyang's play.

This is an era of great emphasis on offensive space, and the stubborn classical small-space play style of Snyder's Jazz is bound to win extremely difficult even if it can win. And for the Mavericks, once the space is opened, it means that the devastating offense is starting to start.

After the first quarter, the Hawks barely narrowed the deficit to nine points. But at the beginning of the second quarter, Yiyang and Delong quickly opened up the difference.

The Eagles' mobility and quick turnarounds simply don't work when facing point guards with two high ball quotients.

You never know which direction Yiyang and Delong's passes will go, and you don't know where these two guys will come out of the next second to catch the ball and finish the attack. Budenhozer has changed several defensive strategies, but it still can't match the offensive richness of the two-point guard.

By halftime, the Mavericks had taken a 15-point lead. On both offensive and defensive ends, the "Eastern Spurs" were pinched to death by the Mavericks.

The Hawks are most afraid of meeting teams with superstars, just like they met James in the Eastern Conference Finals last season. Now that they meet Yiyang and Delong, there is no way at all.

In the third quarter, the Hawks' offense did not improve in the slightest. On the Mavericks' side, Nowitzki also threw away. The three offensive points of Yiyang, DeLong and Dirk took turns bombarding indiscriminately, leaving the Eagles' defense in tatters.

After the third quarter, the gap was widened to 20 points. Budenhozer sat on the bench with his face over his hands, knowing that there was no hope for this match.

The Eagles, who lack a superstar, don't have a very significant offensive strength, so chasing points is the hardest thing for them. After only five minutes of the final quarter, Carlisle was very confident in making all the substitutions. With seven minutes to go, the Eagles couldn't have turned the game over again.

As Delong and Yiyang walked off the court side by side, ESPN's director typed out their stats at the bottom of the screen. Yiyang had 28 points, 11 assists and 3 steals, playing with ease. Deron also performed well today, scoring 20 points and 7 assists. Teague was very embarrassed.

Who said that Yiyang is a single-core leader? Anyone in this team has the potential to step up and become a giant!

"If he had played two full-game games, the stats would have been better. But it doesn't matter anymore, and Delong. Williams, the two former rival defenders, have proven their power when combined. ”

Yiyang and Delong walked off the field, and Carlisle took the initiative to walk up and pat the two on the shoulder. The Dallas Mavericks are not going to be knocked down by injuries.

After DeLong got off the field, he wiped the sweat on his body and immediately put on his training clothes, and the temperature of the air conditioner made him feel a little cool.

Sitting on the bench, Delon turned his head to look at the glazed "silly" old man behind the bench. His eyes aren't as sharp as they used to be, his swearing isn't as loud as he used to be, and he won't grab your jersey and mutter in his ear anymore.

But in DeLong's view, Sloan hasn't changed at all. His appearance can't hide his iron-blooded heart, Sloane is still that Sloane, and a bastard will never turn into a kind old man.

"Good trip to Dallas, old man." Twisting his head, Delon smiled at his former handsome.

"Hmph, you beat like a piece of, Lao Tzu beats better than you with one hand!" Sloane's scolding voice was very slow, but the momentum did not decrease.

A few minutes later, the game, which had been virtually free of suspense since the end of the first quarter, came to an end. 118-98, the defending champions beat the "Eastern Spurs" at home. Budenhozer wants to wrestle with the Mavericks, and I'm afraid his roster needs to be further upgraded.

After the game, ESPN's on-site reporters did not look for Dirk, nor did they look for Yiyang or Carlisle. Fans were in front of the TV and saw the guy who hadn't been interviewed on the sidelines for a long time. Williams.

"Delong, we all saw Jerry today. Sloane was very surprised to come to the scene. Is his presence here today what motivates you to play well in this game? "ESPN's reporters are very chicken thieves, and the world knows that Delon and Sloan have never spoken to each other since they broke up. He asked this deliberately, just to get Delon to admit their hostile state in front of fans around the world.

DeLong looked at the cunning reporter playfully, when he was young, he was easily swayed by the media, but now, it is he who sways the media.

"Motivate me to play well in this game? No, no, no. Jerry. Sloan will inspire me to continue to perform well for the rest of my career! ”

With that, Delon turned to leave with a smile, leaving the ESPN reporter standing there with a bewildered expression.

From Jerry. Are all the guys who came out of Sloane's men?

Carlisle didn't expect that the two-point guard combination, which was out of place on the training court, played an excellent performance on the court.

Although it was only a small change, the results still made Carlisle extremely happy. The success of the two-point guard combination means that the Mavericks have completely come out of the shadow of Wade's injury and everything is back on track.

The game against the Eagles was the first game in which Yiyang did not score more than 30 points after Wade's injury. But this is not because Yiyang is not in good shape, but because he doesn't need to spend so much energy on scoring. Delong's excellent performance shared the pressure on Yiyang's shoulders.

After defeating the Atlanta Hawks, the Mavericks were given two days off. But in the past two days, Yiyang has not been comfortable.

On December 11, the Mavericks did not play, but Yiyang sat in front of the TV like a big enemy, closely following the progress of a game.

The Golden State Warriors vs. the Boston Celtics didn't have much to do with the Mavericks, but Yiyang couldn't take his eyes off the end from the first second.

This regular season game is far more than just an ordinary regular season!

The fierce resistance of the Celtics exceeded everyone's expectations, but it was similar to what Yiyang imagined. Don't look at Stevens' Celtics without many stars, but they are definitely one of the strongest teams in the league. Because Stevens himself is sometimes worth more than a star!

In the first quarter of the game, Bradley scored 15 points in a single quarter, beating Curry and Thompson, allowing the Celtics to end the first 12 minutes of the game with only one point difference.

In the second quarter of the game, Thomas Jr. assisted Sullinger many times to dunk under the basket. Drummond. Green's embarrassed expression became the most frequent close-up of the game in this quarter, and the Celtics led by three points at halftime into the tunnel of players.

In the second half of the game, the two sides played even more inseparable. Everyone thought that the Warriors would easily get out of the North Shore Garden, but Stevens' Celtics dragged Curry into overtime!

Yiyang clapped his hands when he saw it, and sometimes looked up to the sky and roared, as if he was really at the scene.

The game was still scorching in overtime, with Curry hitting a three-pointer in the final 34 seconds to look like he had finally killed the game.

As everyone knows, in the last 14 seconds of the game, Isaiah. Thomas returned another three-pointer! The North Shore Garden is boiling, and their hero, who is only 1.75 meters tall, can actually compete with Curry!

In this way, both sides entered the second overtime competition. In double overtime, who would have thought that the Celtics, without superstars, could beat the Warriors so badly?

But in the second overtime, the advantage of the Warriors' roster depth was still reflected. When the main players of the Celtics were exhausted and could no longer play, Livingston's excellent performance allowed the Warriors to establish an advantage and buy Curry time to rest. Curry, who had been rested, returned to the court and built on Livingston's good foundation to secure the advantage.

In the end, the Celtics still couldn't change their fate after two overtime battles. 124-119, Stevens' team lost to the Warriors, and their two-game winning streak came to an end.

At the end of the game, all the Warriors players rushed into the stadium, hugging each other wildly and celebrating wildly.

It stands to reason that an ordinary regular-season victory would not make the players so happy. But in fact, this is really not an ordinary regular season, and if this is just an ordinary regular season, Yiyang will not pay so much attention.

"Let's congratulate the Golden State Warriors! They fought hard to break the 22-game winning streak created by the Mavericks last season! God, who would have thought that this incredible record would be broken by the Warriors just one season later! With a 23-game winning streak, the Golden State Warriors set a new record for the best start in the North American Sports League! And it's possible that this number will continue to rise! "Mike. Brin's shouts echoed in Yiyang's living room, but Yiyang's mood was not at all excited.

Stevens did his best, and his players did their best, but it still wasn't enough to break the Warriors. Yiyang couldn't help but clench his fists, how he wished he could fight the warriors on the court just now.

Yiyang didn't care about those records, but he was unwilling to watch the Warriors wreak havoc across the league like this. The Mavericks' 21-2 record so far this season is actually pretty good. But because of the Warriors' devastating 23-game winning streak, the Mavericks have been overshadowed.

Yiyang flipped out the December schedule from his mobile phone, and in this season's Christmas game, the Mavericks' opponent is not the Warriors, but the Cleveland Cavaliers led by James. It won't be until December 30 that the Mavericks and Warriors meet.

Yiyang turned off the TV and looked at the Baiyan Lake outside the floor-to-ceiling window, which was shimmering white by the moon. From now on, Yiyang has to live with his fingers crossed.
