"Yi's breakthrough was beautiful, he went straight into the box. Facing Marcus. Camby's defense also jumped directly! Who will he give the ball to? ....... Oh! God, it's not passing! Also, this incredible defender in Marcus. Camby completed a tough slam dunk on the head! God, I still can't believe what I just saw! The screams of the narrator rang out over the radio. Looking at the red light at the intersection in front of him, the taxi driver slapped the steering wheel hard, and the passenger sitting in the back seat was startled by his sudden action.

At this moment, it's not just in the field and in front of the TV. In order to take care of many fans who can't watch the game in the first two ways, the Dallas Broadcasting Company also started a retro live broadcast today. Surprisingly, their broadcasts were very popular!

At this moment, on the streets of Dallas, countless cars are honking their horns en masse. Just as the taxi driver was excitedly honking his horn, a uniformed traffic policeman walked up to him and knocked on the window.

"I'm sorry sir, it's forbidden to honk your horn here!" The traffic police warned while preparing to pull out the ticket from his chest pocket.

After the horn sounded away, the sound of the announcement in the car became clearer. "Who would have thought that there would also be a good show of securing people? Amazing, look at Marcus. Camby's expression, this guy may be the first time he has been humiliated like this by a yellow race! Yi's dunk was a devastating blow to the Trail Blazers, and although the Mavericks still only led by five points, the confidence of the Trail Blazers players must have been devastated! ”

"Also? Break down the people!? The traffic policeman listened intently, then looked at the taxi driver.

The taxi driver smiled. "That's right! I can't wait and want to go home and watch the replay! ”

"That kid...... Well done! Hey, let's go, don't honk your horn on the street in the future. The traffic police were in a good mood and signaled the taxi to leave quickly. Of course, the ticket is also waived.

"Thanks, officer." The taxi driver smiled, tonight's Dallas, it's really enjoyable!

If the Mavericks fans in the taxi were so excited, then the scene at the American Route Center Arena was completely crazy.

In the crowded stadium, cheers were overwhelming. Yiyang felt that his eardrums were about to be shattered, but his heart was not turbulent. The number one defender simply returned to his defensive position and spread his arms.

Seeing this scene, Camby was even more annoyed. It's as if the Chinese has nothing to celebrate about himself. But then I thought, if Yiyang celebrates in a big way, will he feel better?......

On the pitch, in addition to skills and tactics, mentality is also a key factor in shaping the situation of the game. And Yiyang's unexpected separation of people undoubtedly changed this balance imperceptibly.

The dunk just now, let alone anyone else, even the Mavericks players didn't expect it. When Carlisle saw Yiyang complete the slam dunk, the first reaction of the academic coach was to pinch himself to make sure that he was not living in a dream.

Yiyang's playing style is relatively "gentle", even if it is offensive, it is mostly based on passing, shooting and layups. Although Yiyang has a good bounce, the dunk is also very good. But the next person is violently deducted..... This is the first time Yiyang has been in the NBA since I can remember!

This time the Trail Blazers attacked, and they who had done a good job of sharing the ball became noticeably more impatient. After being scored such a wonderful goal by someone else, the Trail Blazers also want to get back to face quickly.

So, without getting the full chance, Batum made a three-point shot.

In Barkley's words, the shot was "crooked as soon as it was thrown"!

The impatient shooting didn't allow Batum and the Trail Blazers to score, and the basketball stumbled out of the frame, and Nowitzki and Chandler, the two longs, spread their arms and stuck in the opposite position, protecting the entire range of rebounding.

However, how could a frustrated Camby just give up like that. Already stuck, Camby still forced his jump to grab an offensive rebound past Chandler.

With neither height nor bounce dominating, if you want to do this, you have to play a little trick.

So Camby, who jumped behind Chandler, gently nudged "The King of Fighters", hoping to make Chandler lose his position.

However, "The King of Fighters" isn't a good bird either. After this guy felt the momentum behind him, he fell down and fell right in front of the referee.

Kan Ru grabbed the offensive rebound as he wished, and just as the guy was about to dunk on the spot for the second time to make a shame, the referee's whistle sounded. Foul for rebounding, the ball still belongs to the Mavericks.

"That's a fake!" After being blocked by Yiyang, he is now whistled for a foul, Marcus. Camby was almost completely ignited. At the moment of the whistle, the veteran center forward immediately argued with the referee.

Fortunately, Aldridge reacted quickly and immediately pushed Camby away. If Camby continues to yell, God knows if he will touch the referee's bottom line. When the time comes, a technical foul will be more than worth the loss.

"Marcus is completely out of control, have you ever seen a rookie who can push a veteran out of control? Also, this guy broke another record. "Kenny. Smith looked at the expressionless Chinese on the court, perhaps his "paralyzed" disdainful expression was precisely the biggest provocation to his opponent.

After such a small episode, the Trail Blazers' offense became a bit chaotic. The sharing ball, which was originally done well, has gradually disappeared. Their offense was once again simpler, with Aldridge and Wallace's singles becoming the only thing McMillan could rely on.

In this way, the Mavericks' multi-point performance helped them take an eight-point lead at halftime. 49-57, in the second quarter of the crazy offensive battle, the Trail Blazers lost again.

As the players walked off the pitch and into the dressing room, Carlisle high-fived his players one by one. When it was time for Yiyang, the academy coach also said a few more words to Yiyang.

"Well done, too!" Carlisle grinned and continued. "How did you feel when you dunked?"

"Good."

Hearing this answer, Carlisle was even happier: "You finally didn't say 'not bad'. ”

With morale high and a solid advantage, Carlisle and his players happily returned to the dressing room. Now, the game can be said to be completely in Carlisle's hands. As long as the Mavericks players don't Waterloo in the second half of the game, then these two games at home can be regarded as successful conservation!

"In the second half, the Trail Blazers will definitely focus more on the offensive end. On the court, I want you to continue to pass the ball aggressively, and you must not rely on the singles of the stars to solve the offensive problems like they did. As long as the performance of the more blossoms can continue, I promise, guys. We didn't have to wait until the last minute to win the game! ”

Carlisle was like a prophet at this point, and he was right about what McMillan was thinking. But it's not because Carlisle can really read the minds of his opponents, it's just that he has studied his opponents very thoroughly.

At the start of the second half, Aldridge once again took on the responsibility of being a star player.

As soon as he got on the court, he was in the low post to fight Dirk. Aldridge tricked Nowitzki's center of gravity with a beautiful half-turn feint, and then suddenly turned in the opposite direction and broke through, heading straight to the basket, his hands vigorously hanging on the frame.

It couldn't have been a perfect start, a dunk, a score. There was no doubt that Aldridge did everything he had to do. As a leader, he stood up bravely when the team needed him most.

But what annoys McMillan is that whenever the Trail Blazers are finally on the verge of getting on the ground, the Mavericks always respond in a timely manner.

This time, Yiyang controlled the ball and came to the three-point line, and he passed the ball to Marion, who then hoisted the ball inside.

Nowitzki was still expected to be able to make a splash on Aldridge's head, but Dirk wasn't as impulsive as Camby. He was not in a hurry to score himself, but pushed back while observing the situation on the field.

Nowitzki suddenly turned around, and Marcus. Camby immediately stepped up to the basket and thought Dirk would break through on his own.

However, instead of attacking the frame, Nowitzki, who turned around, held the ball high and passed the ball to Yiyang, who ran out of space on the outside.

Yiyang took the ball and shook a shot to light up the experienced Miller. No way, Yiyang's feints are so realistic, sometimes, you have no way to tell when Yiyang is real and when is fake.

But this time, after shaking the old Miller away, Yiyang did not break through as before, but leaned on Miller to jump and shoot!

"Also, he's looking for a foul!"

When he was almost out of balance when he was hit by Miller in the air, Yiyang still shot calmly. In fact, Yiyang's purpose is to make a foul and then make three free throws at the free throw line. But today, maybe God is all on the Mavericks' side.

Yiyang's three-point shot with his hand when he lost his balance and serious interference actually fell straight into the net!

"The ball went in! This is..... It's a chance to score a four! Barkley's eyes widened, the Mavericks had played too well today.

"Damn it, damn it!" When McMillan saw this scene, his emotions were completely uncontrollable, and he screamed and cursed angrily. Obviously Aldridge's dunk is about to lead the team to recovery, but now what did the Mavericks give him? A lucky enough to explode for a four? Luck, McMillan hated his damn luck.

Carlisle applauded Yiyang off the field, and people thought that Yiyang's goal was lucky, but Carlisle didn't think so.

Under the extremely strong physical contact and serious interference, Yiyang's actions were still very complete, and his heart was definitely not turbulent.

Indeed, there was a certain element of luck in scoring this goal. But if the strength is not good, there will not even be a chance to seize the luck.

Yiyang's four-point score extinguished the momentum of the Trail Blazers before it could get up.

And this goal is simply a microcosm of the entire second half of the Trail Blazers' game. When they finally get on the rise, Peja's cold arrow will restore everything.

When they are about to take off, Nowitzki's independent retreat will restore everything.

When they were about to get on the ground, Kidd's pull-up jumper would put everything back up.

Either way, the Trail Blazers just can't get up. When it comes to crunch time, there is always someone on the Mavericks who can step up and do something.

With 2:56 left in the game going to end, the Mavericks were in complete control at home, maintaining an eight-point gap.

And after that, Nowitzki's attribute of the "King of the Ends" exploded again. The Germans scored back-to-back goals to score five points in a row, depriving McMillan and the Trail Blazers of a last-minute chance to equalize the score.

With 1:26 left in the game, Nowitzki hit one of two free throws to give the Mavericks a 99-86 lead. Even if McMillan doesn't want to accept this fact, the suspense of victory or defeat has been lost.

It's too late for him to make any changes, and there's not much time left. And the gap that the Trail Blazers need to catch up with is not a star and a half.

McMillan, who had lost hope, suddenly let go of his hand, and the tactical board fell to the ground in free fall.

2-0, this nightmarish score, has become a reality......
