Chapter 361: The Whole Line Collapses

The Mavericks became more low-key before this game, and Terry stood up to say two big words before the last game, which made the atmosphere by the way, but this time except for Cuban who stood up and complained about the league's favoritism in favor of the Knicks and complained about Wu Huang's five layups, no one spoke out before the game. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this moment, the pressure on these old guys is unprecedentedly huge, facing the possibility of a 0:2 total score and losing the last chance to win the championship in their careers, even if the person with a big heart is in no mood to engage in any off-court psychological tactics at this time, the atmosphere in the Mavericks locker room is gloomy and almost dripping at this time.

Nowitzki felt very bad in his heart, this finals was deliberately shaped by the league as an "Asia-Europe showdown", which was deliberately provoking racial contradictions, and the pressure on him was too heavy.

Although the achievements of European players in the NBA are not high, they have never felt that their ability will be much worse than that of black players, and it is only a matter of style that they cannot play in the NBA, but in international basketball games, Europe and South America have become more and more famous in recent years, and they have won more and more against the Dream Team, which fully shows that technology, tactics and discipline will play an increasingly important role when the physical gap is getting smaller and smaller.

In fact, it is true that European and South American players are now focusing on physical development in addition to technical and team skills, which has led to a smaller and smaller lead for black players in terms of physical talent, so the gap in other levels has made European and South American basketball begin to catch up.

In recent years, the Dream Team has struggled to compete at the World Championships and the Olympics, and many media outlets believe that in a decade or two, basketball in Europe and South America will end the history of American Dream Team dominance, when black players will die as badly as they can if they still count on their physical gifts to suppress their opponents.

But European fans and the media never dreamed that their side had not yet ended the domination of black players, and that they would first face the challenge of the yellow race.

Although Asian basketball is almost only only Chinese players in the façade, but Wu Huang's achievements in just two years have almost surpassed the ten years of struggle in the NBA by Nowitzki and Gasol, and none of the European players who won the championship won the championship as the core of the team, but if Wu Huang won the championship, the gold content of this championship is enough to make Asian and Chinese fans raise their eyebrows, and basketball fans around the world will no longer feel that the physique of yellow people is not as good as that of Europeans and Americans and blacks.

And for Nowitzki, there are more factors that he can't lose, because if he loses to Wu Huang this time, not only will he have to wear the nickname "Soft Egg" for a lifetime, but his reputation in Europe will also be greatly reduced, because he now represents European basketball.

After Wu Huang appeared today wearing his pair of golden-colored special edition sneakers for the finals, a huge poster with a length of ten meters immediately floated on the scene, and the portrait on it was still the sect leader costume that had always made him embarrassed.

Every time Emperor Wu saw his women's clothes being made into such a big poster, he faintly felt that his back was cold, and he knew that there must be a lot of staring at his back at this time, this feeling was very bad!

The Mavericks' starting lineup had some changes today, with Carlisle feeling Stevenson's role on the offensive end was too small and moved Terry to the starting lineup today. Although this change will make the defensive end of the ball a little more urgent, the Mavericks are unavailable at the moment, and the absence of Caron Butler has too much impact on them, and the original lineup created by Cuban is very balanced, but injuries have made their already very well-rounded roster full of holes. So this story tells people that if you want to play in the finals, you can't miss any link, otherwise you will inevitably be targeted to death.

Mavericks starting lineup: Kidd, Terry, Marion, Nowitzki, Chandler.

The Knicks didn't make any changes to the starting lineup today, and they are still the same: Wu Huang, Iguodala, Gallinari, Jr., O'Neal.

But it's clear that D'Antoni will certainly use Tony Allen, who was excellent in the last game, to defend Terry, who is shorter than him but not as good at his feet, and the pair's last game almost ended with Tony Allen's opponent.

Iguodala isn't bad defensively, but he's better suited to heavy threes like Pierce, Anthony, and James, and I'm capable of reducing the chances of these guys exploding. But against some short two-way guards, that's not what he's good at. Most of these dual-energy guards have fast and flexible feet, and the confrontation ability of the first brother will be useless, and they will often be abruptly embarrassed.

The Mavericks strengthened their rebounding protection today, in fact, they did a good job in rebounding in the last game, but O'Neal's luck was too good, and Evans was too good at grabbing, and the two won more than half of the team's frontcourt rebounds.

In less than a minute of the opening game, O'Neal didn't know whether it was good sense of grabbing the board or just luck, he stood under the basket and grabbed a rebound, Chandler couldn't push the big meat ball away with hard pushing, so he could only watch the big guy stand up and grab the rebound and then stand and shoot. No matter how tall Chandler is with his arm span, it is difficult for him to block O'Neal's shot after covering with his body, and the opponent's broad and bloated figure is the best weapon to block the block, and O'Neal is very good at using his physical advantages.

Some people play basketball to give people a particularly comfortable feeling, and fans can see that these people often play with their feet on the ground, but often take a step or a casual half-turn to create offensive space, which is a very good feeling for offensive space. Some are because they are experienced, some are born with talent, O'Neill is both, even if Chandler has the same keen sense of smell for defensive positioning, but he is helpless when he is grabbed by this big fat man.

O'Neal felt very good in attack today, having been frustrated by Chandler in the last game and relied on luck to get some key points. But today's O'Neal obviously doesn't want to be said to play by luck, and the first four points of the Knicks' opening game were all scored by big fat men. This also makes the whole Mavericks feel even worse, O'Neal is not the focus of their attention, if this fat man also breaks out, it will be really a big deal.

That concern soon became a reality, and O'Neal grabbed another frontcourt rebound at the 9:21 mark. After Wu Huang's three-point shot was smashed out, O'Neal squeezed Chandler away with a small move to get the basketball, and the subsequent rebound was hit the arm by the angry Chandler, and the result was that the boxing king received a second foul in less than three minutes, and the Mavericks got off to a bad start.

Cheers for O'Neal rang out in Madison Garden, now everyone knows the importance of Chandler to the Mavericks' interior defense, now that this guy is out of the game early, the Knicks' breakthrough must be much easier to play, this big spider-like guy is a great threat to the Knicks' breakthrough players.

Nowitzki hit a key three-pointer before the Knicks went berserk to tie the score at 8-8.

This ball was originally very crucial, which could give the Mavericks players a certain amount of confidence encouragement, making them think that even without Chandler, they could still withstand it, but it was a pity that there was a guy on the opposite side who was also not soft on the key shot.

Wu Huang missed both shots in the opening game today, and after Nowitzki made a three-pointer, Durant would definitely return a three-pointer, because he has not yet practiced the ability to break through with the ball. But Wu Huang is different, he has a strong ability to break through, so he chose a wiser breakthrough for this goal, taking advantage of Chandler's absence to decisively hit the penalty area and scored with a throw.

Heywood is indeed far worse than Chandler now, Wu Huang can feel that his defensive rhythm is very bad, giving people the feeling that his reaction and pace are slow, this guy is not only not used to this high-intensity finals now, but his body seems to be as stiff as if he has not warmed up.

There are two possibilities for this to happen to NBA players, the first is that the training is slack, and they can't maintain their physical condition, so they can't play high-intensity games. The other is that the body has just experienced an injury that can impairs athletic ability, and the speed and agility have suddenly slowed down, and it is natural that it cannot adapt to this kind of high-intensity competition.

Haywood is a both, and in this case Nowitzki has become extremely painful, and he actually has to defend with a blue-collar who makes a living on defense, especially when Wu Huang dribbled to the penalty area twice in a row to complete the goal, Nowitzki's mentality began to have problems.

At 7 minutes and 06 seconds in the first quarter, Nowitzki pushed Wu Huang to the ground with a vicious foul, which was the latter's third consecutive game of being maliciously put down, and he didn't seem to have so many street fights in a season.

Nowitzki's uncalm is because Wu Huang has scored eight and 6 points in a row with a breakthrough before, and it is useless for the Mavericks to call a timeout. Without Chandler's help defense, no one on the Mavericks' interior line could help defend this difficult guy in time, and this contrast made Chandler's defensive skills instantly reflected, and many Knicks fans also felt that Chandler was more suitable for the Knicks, perhaps more suitable than Yao Ming.

Yao Ming and Chandler are both free agents whose contracts expire next year, and they are also one of the targets for the Knicks center position, and both have salaries between 10 million and 14 million, a price that the Knicks can still afford after some operation.

But New York fans subconsciously still feel that it is enough to have Wu Huang and a yellow skin in the team, which is not out of subjective discrimination, but a kind of habitual thinking, after all, the mainstream media in Europe and the United States that they have heard and seen since childhood will not say anything good about China, and there are not many people who grow up in this environment and especially like Chinese, so they feel that it is enough to have a yellow skin of Wu Huang, Yao Ming will not be used, otherwise the Knicks seem to have become a Chinese team.

Nowitzki's foul made the referee hesitate and ended up with only one technical foul.

The Germans have already received a malicious foul in the last game, and if they give it again, they will be suspended for the next game, which has a serious impact on the league's strategy, and the referee will not easily award a malicious foul to Nowitzki.

Wu Huang was once again overturned, his 60e fans were naturally distressed, they bombarded Nowitzki from the last game, and now New York fans have also begun to denounce the Germans, this bastard has such a bad foul action in two consecutive games, he should be banned for one game.

Wu Huang, who fell to the ground at this moment, began to show off his acting skills again, but he did not fall lightly, and now he is once again sure that his ability to resist injuries is also unusual, if he does not have a good body, it is easy to fall out of trouble after such a fall.

In the finals, all the fans felt that Wu Huang was much braver than usual, which was a bit ironic for him, because Wu Huang, who was usually greedy for life and afraid of death, rarely had the opportunity to let the opponent maliciously foul, but in the playoffs, he surprisingly did not play too sparingly, because he knew that this breath must be held, otherwise the opponent would be more unscrupulous to scare him with malicious actions, and the risk of injury was greater at that time.

Nowitzki didn't dare to make another heavy hand after getting a technical foul, which made Wu Huang unscrupulous in the subsequent game, he recognized Nowitzki's direction and kept impacting, and took out a provocative look of "you have the ability to overturn me again" to stimulate the Germans.

At 4 minutes and 35 seconds in the first quarter, the Mavericks were reduced again under the impact of Wu Huang, Marion's defensive foul made him the main player of the second two fouls, and the next three Heywood and Marion were off the court with less than a minute apart. This also announced the complete loss of the Mavericks' defense, and the Dallas had to use the extremely rough technique of the moment, with only the prominent Masimi as the center.

Ian Masimmi is a black athletic interior player with an aggressive style of play, but like most players in this category, the odds of playing are very low, and the muscular, simple-minded guy is the easiest to play with for a technical defender.

Wu Huang scored 10 points at this time by breaking through the entire defense of the Mavericks with a breakthrough, and at this moment he had already scored 10 points, but his offense was not over, and less than ten seconds after Ma Simi came on the court, he sent a very amateur foul under Wu Huang's feint.

"It's so easy!" Wu Huang is too lazy to complain about this kind of guy who can't even figure out the basic position when defending, and the fight is really like bullying a child, and he can easily cheat a foul without effort.

Remember that Hashim Tabit, who entered the NBA in the same year as him, is one such player, but at least he still played some results in the NCAA, but the lack of skill and lack of awareness still left him with empty height, and the rest is useless, and now I don't know which team is guarding the water cooler.

Masimmi is in the same shape at the moment, and this kind of player can now play in the Development League.

After Wu Huang deceived a foul, he immediately found that he was caught by three Maverick players, Carlisle had no choice but to use such a move to lose 1,000 himself, but even killing the enemy 800 may not be able to do the next strategy to force Wu Huang's scoring to pause, but Iguodala and Xiao Si can still complete Wu Huang's task.

Poor Masimmy only lasted 55 seconds to get his second foul after coming on and finally got a third foul at 1:35 and had to be replaced. And the speed of his foul made New York fans feel a burst of laughter, and it seemed that there was something strange mixed in with the finals, how can a player of this level play in the finals?

This also proves how cruel the NBA court is, those who want to have a good body to make a lot of money or wash and sleep, really think that the body is more important than the technique can only be pseudo fans, and technology can not be greatly strengthened through acquired efforts, all fans who think that they can practice shooting and technology well every day are a bit naïve, these talents are actually more rare than physical talents.

Wu Huang said early in the morning that shooting can't be practiced, and a lot of shooting training can make your free throws and shooting in training accurate, just like O'Neal and Monroe can also have a shooting rate of about fifty percent when they play three-point games in training, and Yao Ming's three-point shooting rate is higher when he entertains himself, but when he comes to the game, when someone defends, it is in vain to practice accurately.

This question is also said by the little carrot shred, the marksmanship in the game can not be practiced, and it may be practiced accurately, but in a dozen games, you will find that you are still at that level, not much higher than your talent, these trainings can only explore your potential and maintain your level, but expect to exceed your talent through training, that can only be a kind of self-comfort.

After the first quarter, the Mavericks, whose defensive line had completely collapsed, also stopped eating on the offensive end, and the Knicks led by 18 points at 36:18 under the cheers of the fans across the court, and this score basically announced that the Mavericks were also almost closed, even if it was only the first quarter of the game.
