In the playoffs last season, the Warriors were eager to create another Black Eight miracle in the first round and reach the second round. However, the Golden State Warriors, who have made great progress, had little to fight back in front of the league's No. 1 Mavericks, and were cleared out 4-0. Jackson was also disgraced by this.

Now, a year later, the Warriors are on a 67-win streak and Curry and his teammates are having great seasons. Steve. Kerr's addition seems to have made the Warriors soar and locked a spot in the Western Conference Finals early. In the first round, facing the old Spurs, the Warriors passed easily. Facing the mighty Grizzlies in the second round, the Warriors relied on a bold lineup of small men to advance from the bold.

After going around in a circle, the Warriors still go around the Dallas Mavericks, and Curry will also face Yiyang again. Curry thought that this season, the Warriors would be able to fight the Mavericks to the end! But the brutal result of today's game shattered the beautiful illusions of Curry and all Warriors fans.

"Stephen. Curry, this is probably the game he's struggled the most this season. Watching the Warriors lose, there was nothing he could do. I think that's why I was unanimously elected MVP of the regular season. Compared with Curry, who is in second place, it seems to be much stronger! ”

Looking down from the commentary podium, Mike. Brin is no longer visible to Warriors fans. In the entire Oracle Arena, there are not many fans left. Only a few reporters and Mavericks players were still on the scene, and they turned the Oracle Arena into a stage for their own performances.

Carlisle and Yiyang were very happy after the game, and the victory in this game was not just as simple as turning the aggregate score into 2-1.

Today, Yiyang and Carlisle proved that the Mavericks are capable of containing the Warriors' Death Five. In other words, the Warriors' killer feature is no longer effective for the Mavericks.

Unless the Mavericks have an injury or are in a slump in form in the rest of the game, they won't lose any more games!

The complete suppression of tactics and alignment left the Warriors without the slightest chance. Cole could only pray, praying that Yiyang or Wade would suddenly lose all of his state.

At this time, on the field, the reporters asked a question that everyone was very concerned about. "Also, how do you limit Curry in the game?"

Well, Cole can only pray that Yiyang will not be in good shape. Yiyang, on the other hand, is a real way to control the defense of Curry.

'Stephen is a very difficult player and he has range all over the half. Therefore, there is only one way to defend him, and that is to press him physically and not let him get space to shoot. ”

Yiyang was very crisp, he didn't hide the secret of defending Curry. Because the whole world knows how to defend Curry, but they just can't do it! wants to block Curry's shooting in half the court, except for Yiyang, there is really no second person who can do it.

To defend Curry, it's not the method that matters, it's who defends.

The day after the game, the league announced the results of the last regular season award of the year, the Team of the Year.

In the best array, Yiyang and Curry were both impressively listed. Although he is also a guard who was selected for the Team of the Year, the outside world unanimously believes that Curry is still half a grade worse than Yiyang.

The playoffs are a place to test the true level of a player, whether it is gold or stone, you can tell clearly when you play the playoffs. In the regular season, Yiyang and Curry's various "fairy" performances made the topic of "who is the league's No. 1 point guard" have been debated by fans. But now, the topic is over. Because Yiyang has won gorgeously with obvious advantages.

The buzzing basketball atmosphere throughout the Bay Area has vanished, and the fans are no longer enthusiastic. Although in the last round of the series, the Warriors also fell behind 2-1 and then reversed. But the strength shown by the Mavericks has made Warriors fans extremely desperate.

The two losses to the Grizzlies can be said to be a fraction of a second, and they can be won back with a little effort. But losing this game to the Mavericks is really hurtful.

In order to ensure that fans have the ball to watch every day, the two finals of the NBA are played crossed. In other words, now the two teams have to play a game every other day, whether they want to change the game or not.

One day is simply not enough time for Cole to come up with a way to deal with the calves. Just thinking about how to deal with Yiyang's impact, Cole is one head and two big. Maybe it's going to take the Warriors' coaching staff a whole summer to figure it out.

But that's the case with the divisional finals, whether you're ready or not, you'll be pushed into battle.

Defensively, Kerr doesn't have anything to do for the time being. So today, he's desperate to fight the Mavericks! If Curry and Thompson throw away, maybe the Warriors still have a chance to live.

So in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals, less than five minutes into the first quarter, Kerr replaced Bogut and put him on a small lineup.

The first time they met five hours of death, the Mavericks really didn't react. By the time he reacted, he had already lost a bit.

But now, Yiyang and his teammates are already handy at dealing with the Warriors' small lineup. On the offensive end, Yiyang and Wade took turns to attack. Defensively, the Mavericks are not weak inside and outside.

Kerr also wanted to play against the Mavericks, but after five hours, he found that the Warriors couldn't attack at all. Curry needed to borrow four or five off-ball screens to get an open shot. However, even if he gets the opportunity to make a shot, Curry, who is already running out of breath, will not be able to hit a three-pointer 100 percent.

Curry, with his incredible shooting touch, was able to score some incredible goals sporadically. And Thompson was not so lucky, he sank completely.

Originally, everyone was an offensive point for the Warriors, but the Mavericks' defense forced only Curry to score. The Mavericks' suffocating defensive lineup is so overwhelming that even the Warriors, who rank second in the league in offensive efficiency, are helpless.

Maintain the flexibility and defense of the lineup, make unlimited changes against the Warriors, try to defend one-on-one, avoid trapping, cut off passes between players as much as possible, and force the Warriors to play alone. The way to defend the Warriors is not complicated, and every head coach can figure it out. But the problem is that this method doesn't work for all teams. The Warriors can attack from all five positions, but other teams don't have all five positions.

But the five members of the Mavericks have very good defensive ability, and this almost perverted lineup combination makes the Warriors only swallow the defeat.

The year before, when Cuban brought in Gobert, Iguodala and Tony at the same time. Allen, the media used to mock the Mavericks: So how do they score? How do you win a game without scoring?

But by now, the media should have answered.

As Yiyang said, he once again limited Curry's shooting. The Warriors, on the other hand, have fallen behind the Mavericks 3-1.

In this year's playoffs, the Rockets have just staged a 3-1 counterattack. But you should never expect this to happen to the Mavericks.

The fiasco in the fourth game made the Warriors players have no intention of fighting. By Game 5, the Mavericks had a 23-point lead at halftime, and the "Splash Brothers" played less than 10 minutes in the entire second half.

Sitting on the bench, Curry covered his head with a towel, and no one knew what the baby-faced guard looked like at this time.

It's been a whole year of hard work and an incredible season. The result? As a result, the Warriors just went from 0-4 to 1-4.

"Just like Jordan, in his era, many great superstars are destined to go home empty-handed." Mike. Brin did not shy away from putting Yiyang and Jordan together, and the dominance of these two people in the alliance can be said to be very similar.

When the electronic beep sounded at the end of the game, the entire American Route Center Arena was filled with jubilation! The Dallas Mavericks lifted the Western Conference championship trophy for the second year in a row, and with a terrifying record of 12-1, they easily made it out of the West and entered the Finals!

Curry's declining figure has become a picture of reporters shooting frantically. A team like the Warriors, in any previous season, has a good chance of winning the O'Brien Cup. But this year, they couldn't even make it to the finals.

"Perhaps, there will be a wave of huddles in the west. Otherwise, no team can pass the Dallas Mavericks! "Mike. Brin looked at Yiyang, who lifted the Western Conference championship trophy, and he was sure that James would not be the last star to huddle against Yiyang.

Next, standing in the way between the Mavericks and the O'Brien Cup, the Cleveland Cavaliers are left. In yesterday's game, the Cavaliers have swept the Hawks 4-0 and reached the finals waiting for the Mavericks.

LeBron. James left the Heat last summer just for this moment, just to compete with Yiyang! However, after regrouping, what are the chances of LeBron winning?
