The Runners' second loss didn't attract much attention across the league, with only Sa City fans and media watching the game, and the most watched game of the regular season was of course the Dallas Mavericks vs. Washington Wizards.

Although the Dallas Mavericks have only two wins and six losses since the start of the regular season this season, while the Washington Wizards, the underdog in the East, have a 5-3 record, this confrontation between the East and West teams has attracted the attention of major media and fans, after all, this is the first reunion of the Mavericks after the two towers fell apart.

The Washington Wizards were greeted by the local fans in Dallas, and Bout Kerr refused all media interviews before the game, but the discerning eye could tell from his somber face how much pressure he was on right now, and how much he valued the game.

And the Washington Wizards are also very low-key, although John Larson immediately after coming to the Washington Wizards James Hart formed an inside and outside combination, but he is still very weak when he comes to Dallas.

And Dallas fans are eager to kill John Larson, the culprit who caused the Mavericks' glory to be gone, so some radical Dallas fans pulled a cart of cow dung and directly blocked the route of the Wizards' bus.

Although the radical Dallas fan was arrested by the police, the move is enough to show Dallas's attitude towards the Wizards, and it can be said that another pair of enemies in the league is about to be created.

Although the Mavericks played very hard, and Bout Kerr played the whole game like he was playing in the Finals, but the current Mavericks did not establish a unified tactical system, and even the team's coaching staff did not understand how the team operated.

On the other hand, the Wizards, this Eastern rookie team has finally turned around this season, and their selected champion James Hart does have very good strength, coupled with the arrival of John Larson, the Wizards quickly established an offensive and defensive combination with James Hart and John Larson as the core.

Mavericks fans did put a lot of pressure on John Larson, and John Larson was more of a target in this game, he grabbed all the attention of the Mavericks and allowed James Hart to play a phenomenal performance, and a triple-double of 33 points, 12 rebounds and 13 assists was also very rare for James Hart himself.

The fledgling James Hart won the first triple-double of his career as the best player in a decade, and he also became the youngest player in league history to achieve a triple-double.

John Larson, who arrived under tremendous pressure, came quietly and then quietly left, during which he had no contact with anyone on the Mavericks, and the Mavericks fans had to accept the fact that the team had become a weak team after watching John Larson be scared by them.

The league has tried its best for long-term development, and the existence of the Mavericks has hindered the concept of balanced development of the league, on the surface, it seems that the Los Angeles people are trying to drag the Mavericks into the quagmire, but everyone who understands knows that without the acquiescence of the league, the media in Los Angeles would not dare to expose this incident at all.

And now that the Mavericks are in decline, the East has cultivated a new strong team, the Wizards, and the rise of new teams such as the Runners, it can be said that the league has now begun to enter the trend of entering the crowd.

The Spurs' next game is away to the Atlanta Hawks, but the game won't be played until three days later, so the Runners' schedule won't be so stressful.

After a day of rest in San Antonio, the Runners set off for Atlanta, during which Wang Lei also took Ma Dongmei to the San Antonio River for a swim, although the game was lost, but compared to the previous loss to the Heat, the young people of the Runners learned a lot after this loss, which can be regarded as letting young players feel in advance what is called the playoffs "old fritters".

Growth is about learning from one defeat after another, and then finding a more suitable and fluid style of play.

Playing the Hawks is not too difficult for the current Runners, although the Hawks are also one of the strongest in the East, but their style of play is a very traditional center tactic, a large lineup with four small is not bad in the current popular style of play, but they are not enough to see the new Runners.

This game against the Hawks Wang Lei is even more extreme, he directly did not play the tallest Elvin Butler in the team when he started, but on a whim let Blair Bowman act as the inside, and the outside line matched Blair with the front pitcher of the four teams, Francis Leonardo, who has a better defense, started the point guard, Turgun was the scoring guard, and even sent the "little man" Stephen Chambers, plus Sallich, who recently began to "abstinence", this is a pure and pure small-ball lineup.

The reason why Stephen Chambers is called "Little Man" is entirely because it is his own self-proclaim, in the team, Stephen seems to be very low-key, but also seems to work hard, as some people say, if he does not play seriously and hard enough, he will have to inherit his father's billions of fortunes.

So Stephen keeps saying that he is a "little person" and is not worth paying attention to.

However, it is rare to have a chance to start, and Stephen does not intend to give up this rare opportunity easily.

Throughout the game, the Hawks were restrained to death by the Runners, and Blair Bowman made up for it with his strength and agility on the inside, although he lacked height.

While the Runners weren't able to pose much of a threat to the Hawks defensively, their offense was too fluid, with four pitchers swinging from the outside and Blair making a splash on the inside.

At 130-118, the Runners scored again and relied on 26 three-pointers to beat the Hawks.

Blair Bowman, who played the interior line, played 39 minutes and only scored 20 points, but he scored 22 rebounds like crazy, which is absolutely very rare for a player in the second or third position.

The Runners' top scorer in this game was "Little Man" Stephen Chambers, who shot 8 of 15 three-pointers from the field and scored 32 points in just 31 minutes played.
