The Mavericks' Nowitzki and Josh Howard have a problem with their hands, but their other top scorer, Jason Terry, has a very good hand. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Jason Terry hit two three-pointers in a row early in the opening stanza to maintain the lead despite his teammates' poor hands.

Before halfway through the first quarter, the Mavericks switched to Stackhouse and began their earlier rotation of players than the other teams.

The Knicks were unmoved, taking advantage of the other party's hand problems, Lehi, Marbury and Francis were all trying their best to attack, and the Mavericks' defense was neither good nor bad, but they were a little overwhelmed by the three of them's successive breakthroughs.

In the second half of the first quarter, it was the Knicks who led the score.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Nowitzki immediately changed his style of play and began to force Channing Fry on the inside, which was indeed a move that won him a chance to make free throws, but the feeling problem could not be solved for the time being.

The Mavericks methodically executed their rotation tactics, even Terry, who had a good touch, and the Knicks didn't bring on Crawford until the final two minutes.

Both sides played according to their own tactics, but in this case, the Knicks did not hesitate to take the lead.

At the end of the first quarter, Crawford's three-pointer helped extend the lead to eight.

Entering the second quarter, the Mavericks strengthened their defense, and Terry was still the best on offense, Terry's shot was fast, and his long-range shooting was difficult to defend.

However, Terry's defense is not as good as the offense, and it is not difficult for Francis to break him, but the Mavericks' interior defense is okay, and it is not so easy to impact the basket.

In this quarter of the game, the two sides were almost in a mid-range battle, the Knicks hit the mark in a decent way, the Mavericks Terry felt hot, and Nowitzki still didn't find his touch, but on average, the Mavericks hit a slightly higher shooting rate.

At the end of the first half, the Knicks also led by five points at 50:45.

At halftime, the Knicks targeted Terry, but Nowitzki's side continued to defend with Channing Frye, Nowitzki's own hand was wrong, and Channing Frye was still barely able to hold on.

On the Mavericks' side, they can't make any targeted defense, although Lehi has exploded with strong offensive power before, but the Knicks' offense does not need him to support alone, and after the playoffs, their five scoring points are all threatening.

Mavericks head coach Avery Johnson wanted to strike a balance between offense and defense, and he talked a lot about the problems that arose in the first half, and he felt that as long as the team calmed down the excitement, the advantage was still on their side.

Nowitzki really started to rise in the second half, and Channing Frye worked hard, but when he stood in front of Nowitzki, it was easy to ignore his height of 2.11m, because Nowitzki's shooting was basically uninterferable.

But fortunately, Terry, who felt explosive before, was a little out of fire, and the Knicks still had the lead, and they were trying to maintain the small score advantage with offense.

Lehi drew two fouls on Josh Howard, shattering the Mavericks' hope that Josh Howard could handle Lehi alone.

Josh Howard is really okay with his physicality and hard defense, but he is still a little short of Lehi, who has been baptized in the playoffs, and there is still a gap between his defensive experience and judgment and the best defenders.

He protects the Mavericks' backcourt rebounds better than the restrictions on Lehi.

Under the influence of Lehi's 10-point outburst in the third quarter, the Mavericks' attempt to turn the score around in the third quarter failed, and the Knicks continued to lead 74-69.

The pressure of the finals is indeed different from ordinary competitions, but Li Hai has also had a lot of big stages, and the bigger the scene, the more excited he becomes, he did not let the pressure affect the competitive state.

At the beginning of the final quarter, the Mavericks' Nowitzki was resting off the court, and when Terry led the team to play, Terry showed his high shooting percentage again, and once led the team to tie the score.

But the Knicks immediately returned the favor, and by the time Lehi returned to the court, they still maintained their five-point lead.

This is a hurdle, or a stalemate, and it is often the case in basketball that whoever steps over first is likely to have an advantage in the next stage.

In the final seven minutes of the game, Terry hit two unreasonable three-pointers again, 81:82, and the Mavericks took the lead to break the deadlock and complete the comeback.

This kind of ball is very familiar to the Knicks, and Crawford often throws it, making the opponent helpless, but he didn't expect to be attacked by the opponent once in the Finals.

The Knicks asked for a timeout, and Lehi took a deep breath to calm down, "It's okay, let's just fight back." ”

Back on the court, Lehi asked for the ball outside the three-point line, and then beckoned Channing Frye to come up to cover, Channing Frye just stood up, Lehi suddenly started and rushed into the Mavericks' interior line, Dampier subconsciously stretched out his hand, and was immediately whistled for a foul.

In the next Mavericks' offense, Francis was also ruthless, staring at Terry, even outside the three-point line, without giving Terry any space.

The Mavericks still put the ball in Nowitzki's hands, and Nowitzki squeezed inside with his back to Channing-Fry, then turned and squeezed past Channing-Frye and rushed to the basket.

Eddie Curry and Lehi immediately pounced together, even if Nowitzki didn't feel good in this game, he was also the Knicks' most important defensive figure, and the reason why Terry was able to score so many points before was that the Knicks' defensive attention was not on him was also a reason.

Nowitzki faced the bag and still jumped up to complete the shot.

Playing the board but not entering, Nowitzki also threw his arm in annoyance, his height leaned on the person to jump up and shoot at all could not be really disturbed, if he should normally go in, now the feeling of the body is stiffer.

Nowitzki missed, but Lehi hit a mid-range shot under the cover of his teammates, and the score was close again.

Next for the Mavericks' offense, Josh Howard made two quick stops to Lehi and didn't contain Lehi on the defensive end, and he also wanted to get it back.

That's the problem with Josh Howard, he's very versatile, but takes it for granted.

insisted on singles or jump shots when he felt average, and of course Lehi would not give him a chance.

At 4:46, Lehi assisted on Marbury, who hit a three-pointer to give the Knicks a six-point lead.

On the road, the Knicks once again took the initiative into their own hands, and that's their quality. (To be continued.) )
