"As soon as I signed with the Mavericks, the clouds that hung over me dissipated. I think you know that when you're talking about the Mavericks, you feel that kind of respect that you never have, so I want to be a part of the Mavericks. Well, that's it. After Guy finished speaking, he tried to open his sleepy eyes, smiled at the camera, and returned to the court to continue warming up.

Because of Yiyang's words, Mougins deliberately left the courtside interview quota to Rudy before the game today. Gay – The former all-star forward who didn't play well in the first three games and was almost forgotten in the corner.

Why a Quasi-All-Star Forward? Because as long as you take a serious look, you will be surprised to find that Rudy. Guy didn't even make the All-Star once. Smith once said that Rudy. Guy is the dividing line for the All-Stars.

Guy's answer just now was nothing special, but it made Mougins feel a little different. This guy who was once treated like a star now seems to be more willing to be a role player. The guy, who has averaged more than 15 shots per game all year round, is now more willing to do some work other than scoring.

Mougins looked at the Warriors' warm-up half and saw Iguodala who was greeting Yiyang. Iguodala? Mougins smiled slightly.

Rudy. Isn't Guy like Iguodala, who chose to join the Mavericks back then?

So, let's look forward to your fight today, Rudy!

The Golden State Warriors and the Dallas Mavericks are definitely a pair of mortal enemies. Since the Nowitzki era, Nelson Sr., the "mad scientist" Nelson, who had just been fired by the Mavericks, led the Warriors to complete the dramatic Black Eight Miracle. Since then, the two teams have formed a bond. Later, in the era of Yiyang and Curry, the two teams also sparked one after another.

In the season when the Warriors won 72, the Mavericks took the first spot in the regular season. In the playoffs of the same year, the Mavericks eliminated the incredible Warriors and won the O'Brien Cup.

The Golden State Warriors, on the other hand, ended a three-game winning streak that belonged to the Mavericks. Without the Warriors, perhaps the Mavericks would have become the first team in the 21st century to win four consecutive championships.

Back then, it was Yiyang who forced the warriors to huddle. And last season, the Warriors also defeated the Mavericks, who dominate the league, and won the coveted O'Brien Cup. Such a strong causal relationship turns the calf and the warrior into enemies.

This season, the Mavericks have regrouped, and the Golden State Warriors are not afraid of challenges. Looking at Durant's confident appearance when he warmed up, this guy has long been not afraid of the Dallas Mavericks.

"It didn't take long for the regular season to start, and we were fortunate enough to see such a big matchup. Although the situation in the west has been a bit chaotic this year, many teams have increased their strength. But I would say that it was the Mavericks and the Warriors who could finally make it to the Western Conference Finals. So this game can be called a preview of the Western Conference Finals. ”

The players were still warming up and the commentators were already doing their work. As the first live broadcast in the United States, the ratings of this game remain high. Today, half of the teams in the league have games to play, but none of them get more attention than this one.

"Do you think the Dallas Mavericks will succeed in getting revenge after they have regrouped?" On the commentary stage, Kevin. Harlan started to get Mike. Brin makes a prediction for the game.

Although the Mavericks have played well in the first three games, and just beat the Rockets the day before yesterday. But in Mike. In Brin's view, the Mavericks' lineup is still a bit "green and yellow". Veteran, the strength has declined seriously. Young people, and they have no experience in tough battles. Although Mitchell has entered the people's field of vision in the last game, compared to the Warriors' "Galaxy Battleship", the Mavericks' "Big Three" is still a little shabby.

So, Mike, who has always been particularly optimistic about the Mavericks. Brin, but today he didn't think the Mavericks would be able to win four in a row. "As long as the Warriors don't make mistakes, they're more likely to win the game."

Look at Curry who shook his head with a relaxed expression, looked at Durant and Klay who were talking and laughing, and then looked at Drummond who was provoking the fans. Green. The Golden State Warriors didn't take the Mavericks seriously at all, their lineup was invincible!

Before the game began, Mougins wondered if Carlisle would let Guy play as the starting power forward. Nowitzki, however, was still on the line, and Guy was still sitting silently at the bottom of the bench, completely unconcerned.

Yiyang, Yiyang, you said that you want to see Guy's play today, what kind of play do you want to see? It can't be, it's the play of him waving a towel.

"I'll knock your teeth out, you stupid French bastard!" During the scrum, Pachulia spewed vicious trash talk with a smile on her face, and if it was Meigery who was fighting for the ball now, the two sides might have fought before the game began.

But Gobert remains calm, and now that he's a core member of the Mavericks, he won't allow himself to be ejected for something like this.

Pachulia is also only a mouthful, and in the scrum stage, his height is completely incomparable to Gobert. Yiyang received the basketball, and everyone on the Warriors quickly retreated. The city of Dallas was overwhelmed by cheers from the U.S. Route Center arena, and one of the most high-profile matchups at the start of the season finally began.

Last season's Western Conference Finals, Yiyang was difficult to support alone. With the exception of him, it's hard for anyone else to put pressure on the Warriors' defense. But this year was different, and the Mavericks attacked for the first time, and the Warriors paid the price for their pack.

Yiyang broke through Curry, and Durant came at with a wave of his long arms. In such a situation last season, Yiyang had to pass the ball to Iguodala, but Iguodala's three-point shooting percentage was inconsistent.

But this season was different, and Hayward calmly fired a shot from the bottom corner, leaving the Warriors with a deflated meal. The Mavericks' threatening offensive point is now not just Yiyang.

But soon, the Warriors also showed what they were capable of. Curry was defended to death by Yiyang, but after Durant received the basketball, he shot directly on Hayward's head.

Durant's height and reach advantage left him virtually undisturbed. The three-pointer went through the net, and the Warriors' offense was so clean. Even if it is just a single fight with individual ability, the firepower of the warriors is difficult to contain.

The Mavericks attacked for the second time, and Yiyang broke through and was maliciously put down by Pachuria. Pachuria's guy made rough movements, and Yiyang was no longer surprised.

He took Gobert and Dirk's forearms to his feet and prepared free throws. At the free throw line, Yiyang almost never misses. The Dallas Mavericks took the lead again, and looking at the Warriors' players, they remained composed.

Sure enough, Clay. Thompson's catch is on the pitch to Delon. Williams couldn't defend himself. The Warriors hit two three-pointers in a row to put the score back in an instant.

The scorching game between the two sides is bound to continue until the last moment. This is the game between the Warriors and the Mavericks, and even in the Western Conference Finals last season, only one game between the two sides was separated by more than double digits.

The situation of the game has been anxious until the rotation time, the scores of the two teams have risen alternately, and neither has been able to contain the other. At this point, Mougin's eyes were on Guy, but Guy remained unmoved, instead staring at his sleepy-eyed eyes as his teammates played.

Yiyang, that guy, shouldn't you lie to me? Judging from today's situation, Guy won't play at all!

The two teams battled each other, and Mitchell became the Mavericks' most dangerous point of attack. But today, it wasn't easy for him to score. Kerr developed a specific defensive strategy against the three youngsters of Mitchell, Kuzma and Moodier, which led to the three of them hitting a wall on the offensive end.

Iguodala personally confronted Kuzma, leaving Kuzma a little confused. This guy's shooting has been repeatedly ironed, and Kuzma's finishing ability in the confrontation needs to be improved.

As for Mitchell, the Warriors' strategy to defend him is to shoot and not burst. Mitchell's breakthrough was as deadly as a sharp knife, but his shot was ineffective. The Warriors' nimble defense did allow Mitchell to hit the wall, and he didn't play as well as he could have in the first quarter.

In this way, the Warriors took advantage of the excellent play of their second team to widen the margin to eight points at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, the Warriors contributed a small lineup. Green played five, Durant played four, and Iguodala played three. The aging Nowitzki is completely incapable of resisting Durant.

Durant was going to break through Dirk, and it would have been too easy. Does Dirk want to beat Durant? But it's not that easy. Even if the current Dirk sits on the inside, he may not be able to impress Durant.

And Hayward, under Iguodala's defense, has also limited his scoring pace to a certain extent. Halfway through the second quarter, the Warriors' lead became 11 points when Durant easily shook off Dirk with his off-ball run and hit a three-pointer! Durant raised his right hand and gestured three fingers, Curry danced straight away, enjoying the boos of the Mavericks fans, and it looked like the Warriors were simply happy to take a double-digit advantage.

"I mean, young people are going to be limited in what they can do in this kind of game. The opponent is always the defending champion, and their defense is not something that rookies can stand. ”

Mike. Brin shook his head, maybe in the playoffs, the more mature Mavericks can play the Warriors to a five-to-five. But in today's game, the Mavericks have almost no chance of winning.

At this point, Carlisle called a timeout. With an 11-point difference, if you sit back and watch it any longer, Curry's kid may really have to clock out early.

One big and four small, that's Carlisle's only chance. The question is, after losing Iguodala, who can play in the number four position? Kuzma? If he plays against Durant, he will probably be beaten to slag. After all, Kuzma's defense is not particularly good.

What about Nance Jr.? No, that guy doesn't have a strong ability to defend from the outside. Moreover, if he plays the No. 4 position, then the Mavericks' No. 4 position is basically defenseless.

Carlisle looked at Yiyang, and the two of them looked at each other. I don't know if it's going to work, but sooner or later, Carlisle will have to let him try. In that case, let's do it today.

"Rudy, take off your training clothes."

Behind the basketball hoop, Mougins in the press section finally saw that Rudy. Guy, the forgotten guy in the corner, stood up.

Can the fusion of Guy, a former quasi-All-Star forward, and the Mavericks system led by Yiyang spark? Yiyang, I hope you didn't fool me.
