As soon as Nowitzki started to get serious in the fourth quarter, he immediately let the Hornets know why the flowers are so red! The German has been a rebellious presence this season, scoring whenever he wants to, and with a little bit of effort, the Hornets can get the ball to the point of play in no time.

Nowitzki tried a step jumper on the court, a catch-and-shoot jumper, a turnaround jumper, a breakaway with the ball, and a few balls were hit to easily score 11 points in four minutes to help the Mavericks lead the Hornets 105-94.

Nowitzki finally put in a great game in the final quarter, with only four minutes left until the end of the game.

Ball called a timeout and tactically said nothing but a word of encouragement to the team.

"Today the Trail Blazers lost! As long as we win this game, we are sixth, whether we want to play the Lakers or the Thunder, it all depends on our performance in this game! ”

Bauer's tactics are indeed poor, but the motivation for the Hornets is huge. Playing the Lakers with the Hornets' current interior line is almost impossible to win, and if you play the Thunder, the Hornets still have a chance to live, so at this time, Paul and West and the other players of the Hornets are full of fighting spirit at once.

At the end of the timeout, the Hornets returned to the court, and Horne teed off to the sideline, then immediately ran to the high post, after which Horne infiltrated the low post and began to fight Nowitzki.

After being hit by Nowitzki so many times, Horn is now on the verge of breaking out.

Nowitzki simply treats himself as a target, and this Horn can bear it! He now sees the opportunity to fight to the death with Nowitzki, who consumes more than Horn on the offensive end, and Nowitzki is also older, and his physical strength naturally declines when he gets older, which is a natural law.

Horn was desperate with Nowitzki at this time, but Nowitzki was a little unbearable, and Marion could only come over to help.

As a result, Ariza leaked out temporarily, and Pao Roma passed the ball to Ariza, and the Mavericks' defense immediately assisted Ariza.

At this point, the Mavericks rotated well, and Horn had a slight opportunity, and he ran quickly outside the three-point line.

When Horn was running, Nowitzki tried to chase after him, but he was too old to stumble on his leg and not chase him.

Horn ran out at this time, just in time to receive a pass, and Horn, who got the basketball, took advantage of the moment of vacancy to raise his hand and throw a three-pointer.

"Brush!"

The high confrontation and high tension of the game rhythm make Horn's hands sensitive and rich.

Horn shot with a single hand, and after hitting this ball, Horn finally found his senses, he knew that he must not be reasonable to play the Mavericks, not only himself, but the whole team cannot, and they will definitely not be able to beat the Mavericks according to the rules. If you want to win, you can only use physical strength and beat the master to death with random punches.

So after the shot, he immediately yelled at his teammates: "The whole court is pressing!" ”

After saying that, he himself rushed to the front and went to rob, and Paul also went to rob Kidd in a flash.

The Mavericks are old, but the lineup is really old, and Kidd is uncomfortable with the ball here, and he turned around and passed the ball to Boibie.

Boibis looked frizzy when he got the ball, Horn saw that his hand was unsteady at this time, and went up to make a desperate steal, Boubo wanted to dribble behind him in front of Horn, but he didn't see Ariza behind him, and Ariza suddenly stole the ball on the spot.

Ariza who broke off the basketball immediately passed the ball to Horn, who turned and dribbled to the three-point line in a big step.

At this position, Marion pounced, Horn faced Marion and quickly looked up at the basket, Marion thought Horn was going to shoot, his steps stiffened, Horn took this opportunity to immediately dribble to the side a step, and then quickly shot directly to throw a three-pointer.

Horn was already taller than Marion and had enough space to shoot for a split second.

"Brush!"

Horn's three-pointer was an accurate shot, scoring 2 three-pointers in a row, and Horn suddenly brought the score of the two sides closer to 100:105, and the difference between the two sides was only 5 points.

Horn suddenly broke out, and the Mavericks immediately sensed the danger, and Carlisle hurriedly directed the team to strengthen the defense on the sidelines.

But at this time, the momentum of the Hornets rose, and after Horne scored, they immediately pressed on the spot, although the Hornets were robbed of the ball, but it also greatly delayed the speed of the Mavericks' advancement.

On the Hornets' side, the Mavericks didn't have much time, Nowitzki took the ball and Horne quickly chased after him, and Ariza also came up fiercely to wrap Nowitzki.

Nowitzki faced two defensive maniacs, and he immediately shifted the ball to the bottom of Kidd's hands, Kidd dominated the morale of the point guard position when he was younger, and his shooting was extremely inconsistent, and laziness and inconsistency were what he was criticized for. But now that Kidd is old, shooting three-pointers and defending have become where Kidd is strong.

Kidd took the ball and shot quickly, Paul flew over and interfered, but Kidd still didn't hit the ball.

At key moments in the game, the Hornets' defensive choice is to squeeze Nowitzki and let go of other players, and if other teams choose to do so, the Mavericks will come up with a small lineup.

But today, the interior combination of Horn and West made it impossible for the Mavericks to play the small man lineup, and there was too much room for these two people to play the small man lineup. The Mavericks can only continue to use the interior combination of Marion, Chandler, and Nowitzki, so that the Mavericks' outside shots are only Kidd and Terry, and the Hornets are not completely uncovered.

West protected the rebound under the basket, and the Hornets rushed up again at this time, compared to the Mavericks' lineup, the Hornets' lineup is still on the small side.

Paul came over and immediately aggressively broke through the inside, and Horn ran around frantically back and forth.

Nowitzki really couldn't handle this type of back-and-forth running, Novitzki was a little slower, and then he was blocked by West, and Horn ran to the empty space in the bottom corner again.

At this position, Pao Roma passed the ball, and Horn received the ball without hesitation, and it was only right to shoot while he was feeling good.

"Brush!"

Horn swiped three three-pointers in a row to rewrite the score to 105:103 in one go, leaving only 2 points left.

Nowitzki worked hard to open up the difference, and was chased back by Horn three or two times, and the Mavericks were a little anxious.

got the ball, and the Mavericks immediately played the Mavericks' most classic Terry and Nowitzki's high blocking. This offensive tactic is simply the Mavericks' most classic two-man rotation tactic, and the Hornets encountered this situation, and they also played a ruthless package of Nowitzki and Terry to let go of the rest of the Mavericks players.

Nowitzki had to face a double pack and could only pass the ball to Marion, who was unstable on three points, and he took the ball and dribbled with a single throw.

Just then, Horn came back from the side and hit Marion's ball, and Horn made a crucial block after three three-pointers.

The New Orleans Arena exploded as if someone had been stuffed with 100 kilograms of explosives.
