Derek. Rose won the MVP, making him the youngest MVP winner in NBA history. It's been said that a new generation of defenders is about to change the world. Basketball fans around the world were shocked that Rose was named MVP on his rookie contract. Everyone felt that the next "Michael. Jordan", has been born!

It seemed that the whole world was enveloped in a red storm that Ross had sparked, but the city of Dallas was like some kind of isolation device had been set up around it.

Rose's win as MVP didn't make much of a splash for the city. Even in the local sports newspaper in Dallas, the story didn't make the headlines.

For the citizens of Dallas, it doesn't matter if Ross wins 10 MVPs. Because tonight, the Western Conference Finals between the Dallas Mavericks and the Oklahoma City Thunder are the most important thing for the citizens of Dallas!

Looking at the words "Western Conference Finals" printed on both sides of the hard floor of the U.S. Route Center arena, Cuban felt both familiar and unfamiliar.

I really didn't expect that this season, just because of the recruitment of Yiyang, a rookie, the Mavericks would be able to get to this point. The last time the Mavericks played in the Western Conference Finals, it seemed like many years ago. Which time, the Mavericks got their wish to win the Western Conference championship, but lost the league championship. I wonder if everything will go smoothly this year......

"How about sitting there watching the game today?" Carlisle suddenly appeared behind Cuban, startling the chubby Mavericks owner.

"Damn, you can't make a sound when you walk!? Today, I'll sit behind the bench. The players' preparations, no problem, right? Cuban said, looking at the players who were warming up on the field.

'The morale is high, the physical condition is good, the mental pressure is not too great, and the condition of the players can be said to be very good. Carlisle replied confidently, reassuring Cuban.

"That's good, I'm looking forward to you beating the Oklahoma kids all over the ground at home!" Cuban said, clenching his fists and swinging his inflexible arms.

At this moment, the phone in the pocket of Cuban's trouser rang.

"I've got to go get the players' families into the pitch, everybody's here today, don't mess it up!" Cuban patted Carlisle on the shoulder, then walked into the players' tunnel and disappeared onto the basketball court.

Carlisle looked at Kuban's chubby back, smiled and shook his head. Having an owner who is willing to dedicate himself to basketball is a blessing for Dallas fans......

The Mavericks players had already begun warming up on the court, and the Thunder team bus had just arrived outside the Center Arena for American Airlines.

Before the car stopped, the reporters had already swarmed up and surrounded the bus tightly. Westbrook, dressed in skinny ripped jeans and a light blue jean, was the first to step off the bus, and his exaggerated and bizarre style of dress always caught the eye.

Westbrook, dressed in fancy clothes and wearing sunglasses, was walking the red carpet at the moment, occasionally stopping and waving at the crowd in front of the reporters' cameras. Despite his flamboyant personality, Westbrook is actually a very friendly guy who rarely gives reporters a look.

Behind Westbrook is Durant, who is tall and has long arms and legs under his neck. Compared to Westbrook, Durant is much more low-key. He only wore an ordinary hooded sweatshirt and a pair of legging sweatpants, which looked very ordinary. Facing the cameras of reporters, Durant did not say anything, but buried his head and walked forward.

One is introverted and silent, the other is extroverted and flamboyant. These two guys whose personalities don't seem to be compatible at all are the main reason why the Thunder have been able to get to where they are today! Their performance on the pitch will directly determine the outcome of the game.

Of course, in the crowd, a young defender with a big beard did not get as much attention as the first two. But the reporters are still shooting him wildly, and this best sixth man who belongs to the Thunder team is bound to cause huge trouble for the Mavericks as well!

"Although the Thunder team is young, their lineup doesn't look weak!" Mougins huddled in the crowd, wondering what kind of storm those three young talents could cause in Dallas.

"Accustomed to playing the aging Lakers, I don't know what the Mavericks will do against the young Thunder. Let's go, let's go to the press area of the scene in advance. Otherwise, it will be difficult to squeeze in later! One of Mougin's peers pulled him into the stadium, and around the American Airlines Center arena, the smell of gunpowder seemed to be getting stronger.

After the first round of warm-ups, Nowitzki and his teammates returned to the locker room for the final preparations and preparations for the game. The Mavericks leader didn't talk much today and was very serious on the court. It's the same as before, Nowitzki is always very serious before the big game starts. Seriousness, emphasis on order, meticulousness, these unique German personalities are vividly reflected in Nowitzki at this moment.

"You'd better not mess with Dirk today, he's a German tank that he says he'll blow up!" While putting pairs of socks on his feet, Terry whispered in Yiyang's ear.

"Huh?" Yiyang was stunned for a moment, Nowitzki is not a tyrant, where is it as terrifying as Terry said.

"Just because you've said it many times, just because you've never seen that guy get angry doesn't mean he doesn't have a temper. You have to be cautious on the pitch and don't make mistakes. The Germans roared, it was quite terrible! Terry's grim expression made Kidd, who was watching from the sidelines, smile and shake his head. That guy is scaring Yiyang again.

But seriously, at this point, Nowitzki will never be giggling again. Western Conference Championship, it's an honor that no one can refuse. Since their last Western Conference title, the Mavericks have been rocking through thick and thin for years. In the past few years, they have experienced painful defeats again and again, and even suffered the humiliation of their opponents "Black Eight" and "Black Seven".

Now, I finally broke through the haze and walked here, how can I fall down hard?

"Guys, I'm sure you're already familiar with tactics, and I don't talk nonsense. The Thunder have arrived, and soon they will be warming up on the court! I have only one request, do a nice job! Carlisle saw that the players were almost ready, so he launched a final mobilization.

As soon as Carlisle finished speaking, Nowitzki suddenly stood up from his position, startling everyone.

The German looked around the dressing room and made eye contact with everyone. This guy with messy hair looks like a golden lion at this time.

"Brothers, let's go!"

Nowitzki was the first to open the locker room door and lead the players out.

The road from the locker room to the basketball court in the American Route Center has been the way Nowitzki has been walking for 13 years! In the past 13 years, he has gone through countless joys and sorrows, countless joys and sorrows. He has received his own honors, but he has also experienced painful failures.

But, so what? Every time you start here, it represents a new beginning!

This is Dallas, this is my territory!

"Let's go!" At Nowitzki's roar, the players rushed out of the tunnel one by one and stepped onto the pitch.

"Let's welcome, Dallas~~~~~ Mavericks!" The live DJ shouted just the right amount to ignite the atmosphere of the scene, and the loud noise was really like a sound wave, slapping in the face.

Yiyang felt that the hairs on his whole body stood up, and every time he advanced to the next in the playoffs, he could bring Yiyang a new experience.

"The Dallas Mavericks are finally on the pitch, viewers, friends, TV. The high-profile Western Conference Finals start right away! "Kenny. Smith's long-lost voice reappeared on the televisions of Dallas homes, and after more than a week of waiting, the fighting reopened in the Texas metropolis.

"What is very surprising is that in this year's Western Conference Finals, we can neither see Kobe's figure nor Duncan's weird smile. The Thunder and the Mavericks, two teams that were not favored before, have made it to the top of the West! I don't know what kind of different experience such a new combination will bring us. "Charles. Barkley chimed in, saying that before the season began, he probably wouldn't have imagined that he would be sitting in the American Route Center in Dallas to explain the Western Conference Finals. He would never have imagined that the "Young Guards" of Thunder would actually pass all the way and make such a big breakthrough in performance.

The Western Conference Finals without Kobe and Duncan seemed to be missing something. But what the Mavericks and Thunder bring to fans is more freshness.

"The duo of the Thunder is the characters that the Mavericks have to be careful with today! Kevin in 4th grade. Durant has averaged 27.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game this season. Westbrook, a third-year, had 21.9 points and 8.6 assists! There is no doubt that these two youngsters have stepped into the ranks of superstars! Perhaps in the eyes of people, the Thunder are still just a youth army. But in reality, they are already a tough team with two superstars driving at the same time! The Nuggets and Grizzlies have already learned how powerful these two are, and neither of them ended well. If the Mavericks don't take precautions, they have a good chance of falling behind! "Come up, Kenny. Smith put together the pretty stats of Westbrook and Durant.

And Kenny. Smith's thoughts, in fact, also represent the inner portrayal of most fans. Although the Mavericks swept the defending champion Lakers out of the tournament with a total score of 4-0 in the previous round, subconsciously, people still don't think much of the Mavericks, a team that has frequently dropped their chains in the playoffs.

On the court, however, the Mavericks players did not receive any impact. This season, they have all come all the way without being favored.

"Also, do you see that guy?" During the warm-up, Nowitzki stopped Yiyang, and then pointed to the No. 0 defender in the opposite half, Russell. Westbrook.

Yiyang nodded, he didn't know what Dirk wanted to say to himself.

"I'm sure you can handle him, Brian said he's been training for you in the past few days. Hey, to hell with those who think they're physically fit to play basketball! Nowitzki patted Yiyang on the shoulder as he spoke, as if encouraging him.

"And then, there's that number nine, you know him."

Nowitzki refers to the Thunder's starting power forward, a sporty defensive interior player with dual citizenship of Congo and Spain. Ibaka.

Although this is only Ibaka's second NBA season, his intimidation on the defensive end has already shocked the whole league. Countless excellent insiders have fallen under the cover of his terrifying bounce and violence.

Yiyang looked at Ibaka and then at Dirk. Still just nodded, but didn't speak.

"I'm going to beat that guy too, but, I need your help. I trust you, your ball always gets in time, right? ”

"No problem, Dirk. You don't have to worry about my passing. ”

"Well, listen, people say Westbrook and Durant are one of the scariest duos in the league. Today, let's let people see what kind of duo is called real horror! ”

Nowitzki finished speaking, and stretched out his arm.

The German looked murderous today, he wanted to win, he wanted to bring glory to Dallas. He wants to prove that he is not a soft egg!

Yiyang walked up, and the arms of the two were crossed together. Nowitzki's power in his body seems to have also been transmitted to Yiyang's body.

"Beep~~~" The electronic beep sounded, the referee signaled that the warm-up time was over, the substitute players were off the field, and the starters stood in the designated position, ready to start the game!

Yiyang and Nowitzki took off their training clothes, and people said that basketball was a sport ruled by black people, but neither Yiyang nor Dirk were black athletes. But today, skin color is not a roadblock to their victory!

Duo vs. duo, which is better or worse, if you don't try it, how do you know?

"Toot!"

The referee blew the whistle, and the basketball was thrown into the air, which looked so dazzling in the brightly lit court......
