Chapter 458: The New Iron Triangle

On October 30, the NBA officially arranged three opening game performances for fans. The Miami Heat defeated the aging Green Army Big Three without any suspense. Rondo has replaced Ray. Alan. And Junzi Lei, who switched to the Heat, defeated his old club with a 19-point performance, which can be regarded as a complete break with the Green Shirts.

The second game consisted of 11-year-old champion Kelly. Irving's Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the 10-year-old Washington Wizards, and the matchup between two outstanding young point guards had fans applauding. But another guard who is the same age as these two guys has been pushed in front of Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers. When it comes to Wall and Irving, fans' first reaction is more of a potential star. And when it comes to Yiyang, the first thing that flashes in the minds of fans is the word top point guard!

One of the most high-profile and talked about games in the opening game, the Dallas Mavericks' away game against the Los Angeles Lakers, broke out the first upset since the beginning of the season!

Nowitzki is out for 6-8 weeks before the season starts, and Terry's departure and Kidd's retirement have also turned the Mavericks' roster upside down. However, this lineup that Cuban put together was stunned to defeat the Los Angeles Lakers with super F4 on the opening day! And in this game, the Mavericks did not win by luck, but won by a full 8 points against the Los Angeles Lakers!

Judging from the scene, except for the first and second quarters of the game, the Lakers have been led by the nose. Yiyang, a young man who just entered the league in 2010, beat Nash, a historic point guard, to the point where he couldn't find the north. His control and grasp of the pace of the game made Nash praise Yiyang again and again after the game.

What surprised fans even more was that Kobe Bryant's shooting rate in this game was as high as 78.6%, and the "Black Mamba" in 11 of 14 shots can be said to be 100 shots! However, even so, the Lakers lost.

Yiyang beat Kobe Bryant with 34 points, 13 assists, 6 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block, leading the Mavericks to a good start. In the first game of the season, it was 30+10, and Yiyang has already announced in a high-profile manner that he has taken over the burden of Nowitzki's star!

It is worth mentioning that the performance of O.J. Mayo, the Grizzlies' abandoned player in this game, is also remarkable, although his defense of Kobe Bryant is better than nothing, but 15 points, 4 assists, 5 rebounds and 53% shooting percentage still make him a good answer.

The backline combination of Yiyang and Mayo has become a nationwide hit, and the lineup, which was barely talked about before the start of the season, has now been labeled the "best duo" by many media outlets.

Speaking to reporters after the game, Mayo seemed very excited about the first game of the new team. can defeat the powerful Los Angeles Lakers, this kind of thing Mayo couldn't think of before!

"He's a great team-mate, and we all like him! You know, today I got a lot of open shots. And these opportunities are all from Yi's wonderful biography! He's like a machine with no blind spots, no matter where you are on the pitch, you have to be ready to catch the ball at all times! ”

Mayo praised Yiyang's performance, playing next to him and seemed to be better than playing next to him. Conley is more comfortable playing next to him. Another reason why Mayo is so happy is that if his data is fed by Yiyang this year, then he will definitely be able to sign a coveted big contract next year!

Choosing to settle in Dallas was a win-win decision......

After the opener, the Mavericks, who lost Nowitzki, received a lot of attention. How far can a team that can beat the Lakers' F4 squad go this season?

On Oct. 31, after the battle in Los Angeles, the Mavericks rushed to Salt Lake City for their first back-to-back matchup of the season.

Salt Lake City is no longer a stranger to Yiyang, and Yiyang comes here several times every season. What made Yiyang very happy was that when he appeared at the door of the Energy Solutions Arena again this year, Gordon was already hanging in front of the arena. Huge poster of Hayward. After two seasons of training, Hayward, Yiyang's best friend in college, has now secured the position of the Jazz's starting quarterback!

It turns out that Hayward, who has always played small forward, will be more comfortable at the No. 2 position. In the second half of last season, Hayward had already shown what it could be like a star.

"Missing your college teammates?" Seeing Yiyang staring at Hayward's poster, Darren. Collison also looked up and sighed.

"What about you?" Yiyang didn't answer Collison, but asked rhetorically.

"Of course I miss my college teammates, and I wonder what the guy who came off the bench was called...... That's right, Westbrook! Hahaha! Collison proudly joked, wasn't the No. 0 "Turtle" who is now dominantly my little follower at the beginning.

"Let's go, don't look at it. Let's go in and have a good job! Collison patted Yiyang on the shoulder, and then followed the group towards the arena.

Collison is actually a strong point guard, and he can easily start on many teams if he wants to. Although Collison is only positioned as Yiyang's substitute this season, he still works very hard and plays well. Perhaps, this is the attitude that a professional player should have.

Before the start of the game, Yiyang hugged Hayward as always. Although this is the third NBA season since the two left college, their relationship is still as simple and sincere as when they were in college.

"Hey, did you hear that? The leader may be entering the NBA soon! After hugging, Hayward quietly put his head in Yiyang's ear and revealed to him a gossip that seemed very exciting to the two of them.

"Where did you hear that!?" Yiyang has also grown his mouth, if he also joins the NBA, then he will definitely have one more strong opponent!

"As a journalist friend told me, I've heard that a lot of teams have sent scouts to Butler University. But their goal is not to look at the players, but to look at the coaches! ”

Yiyang thought about the scene where he, Hayward and Stevens fought at the same time in the NBA, and couldn't help but be shocked. Let's hope this news is true......

After the greetings, the battle between the two teams officially began. Tyrone. Corbyn can be said to have implemented the concept of team basketball very thoroughly, and in the Jazz team, no one is a superstar, because everyone can become the superstar they are today.

Everyone on the Jazz team took very even shots, even Millsap and Eyre. Jefferson, the two strong interior lines, can't attack without authorization.

Compared to last season, the Jazz are more fluid with the ball. Because of this, Hayward has also been given many opportunities to perform.

This elegant-looking white striker has a style of play that is surprisingly similar to that of a guy. No, don't think that Hayward can only shoot from the outside, more often than not, Hayward actually plays more like LeBron. James!

Hayward's explosive breakthrough made Marion miserable. Even Carman, a large-tonnage center, has been repeatedly carried away by Hayward.

The Jazz team relied on the team's play to widen the difference to 10 points! However, Carlisle's two-point guard tactics allowed the Mavericks to complete a quick turnaround.

Darren. Collison and Yiyang, these two people taken out alone, are extremely good offensive initiators. When they were merged, the effect was much more than anyone expected.

Just when you thought Yiyang would be the endpoint, Collison sent the opportunity to Mayo, who played the third position, with a hidden pass from behind.

Just when you thought Collison was going to break through for a layup, he used a selfless point shot to help Yiyang hit a three-pointer. Seeing that Yiyang and Collison handled the Mavericks' offense in an orderly manner, Mike. Brin even sighed. "Maybe Delon. Williams is really here, and it's hard to play with Collison's efficiency! ”

With the excellent play of Yiyang and Collison, the Mavericks overtook the score in the fifth minute of the third quarter of the game. And they kept the lead until the end. The Jazz's starting lineup may be close to the Mavericks, but their bench with no depth has become the last straw that crushes the Jazz.

Collison, Carter, Jay. Claude and Yi Jianlian...... These names may not be very good in the bench lineup of the entire league, but it is more than enough to kill the second team of the Jazz.

In the end, the Mavericks narrowly defeated the Jazz 113-109 in Salt Lake City, making it two consecutive wins since the start of the season! In this game, Hayward scored 17 points and 8 rebounds, one of which was a wonderful dunk on Marion's defense, and he was selected as one of the top five today.

It's a pity that Yiyang stole the limelight from Hayward again. 22 points, 7 assists and 3 rebounds, Yiyang and Collison combined. J. Mayo scored 15 points on 7-of-8 shooting today, and this guy looks like he's about to have his second spring in Dallas!

"It also makes a team that has no hope at all become extraordinarily dazzling! His collaboration with Mayo and Collison seems to be more brilliant than previously thought. The former iron triangle combination of Yiyang, Terry and Kidd has now been reorganized in a completely new form! ”

With two wins in a row, this result undoubtedly delighted Dallas fans. Even Nowitzki, who is recovering from injuries at home, joked in an interview with reporters. "I can just sit here and wait until the playoffs start."

After a two-day break, the Mavericks are finally going to play their first game at the Center Arena of American Airlines, their home stadium! And the first opponent they face at home is Charlotte Bobcats, who are looking to make a breakthrough this season.

This summer, the Bobcats drafted Kentucky talent Michael Brown with an eye-pick pick. Kyd. Gilchrist. Plus the gradual rise of Kemba. Walker and Sessions and others, the Bobcats are directly aiming for the playoffs this year.

Before the game began, Mavericks veteran Brandon. Heywood was greeted by the crowd. Yiyang also gradually felt that this alliance was getting smaller and smaller, and the longer you stayed here, the greater the probability that you would run into acquaintances. Think about going to Boston next time, and I'm going to meet Terry.

But unfortunately, the addition of Haywood did not let the Mavericks release the Bobcats. Gilchrist hit just four goals today and scored 13 points. And Kemba. Walker only scored 10 points under Yiyang's defense.

On the first home court of the season, the Mavericks gave the fans a wonderful "cat slaughtering feast"!

Yiyang had 22 points and 10 assists, Carter Sr. had 18 points, Collison had 16 points, and Yi Jianlian also scored 10 points, knowing that he has not contributed more than double-digit points in the NBA for a long time.

The most exaggerated is O.J. Mayo, under the "feeding" of Yiyang and Collisson, Mayo ate the pie in one bite, scored 30 points in one fell swoop, and was elected the best in the game!

The Mavericks, on the other hand, have won by a huge margin of 126-99.

Three young defenders, three great winning streaks. The Mavericks seem to have embarked on a road to revival, and Yiyang is also very happy after winning the game, maybe Mayo's guy with a long string of black history is not as bad as he imagined.

Yiyang is still looking forward to the next game, while Mayo is already looking forward to the nightlife this weekend......
