404. Things seem to be upside down! (5th Guaranteed Monthly Pass)
The Grizzlies were having a post-match meeting, and the Mavericks immediately held a meeting after returning to the hotel, but it was just a meeting of the coaching staff.
Coach Carlisle feels hopeful!
Tonight... In fact, in terms of overall tactics, the Mavericks basically did not play tactics, just Nowitzki played singles to attract pincer attacks, and even attracted the Grizzlies who were already in a mess before they received the ball when they were stuck.
With the team's attack, Kidd took the opportunity to connect other people's offenses and scored 13 assists in a single game!
But Coach Carlisle's tactics... were basically not played out, and it was entirely up to Kidd's control ability to fight a team attack.
In other words, if you win this game, it has nothing to do with tactics, you will win at three points.
Nowitzki explodes, Kidd's control ability... and the most important thing is that because Nowitzki explodes, the Mavericks' offense is completely different from usual. Kidd's attack makes the Grizzlies unable to defend, so they can only get 13 points.
Better beat the Grizzlies.
Now is an opportunity for the Mavericks!
Opportunity to turn the tables!
However, whether Nowitzki really returned to his playoff status before 2007 is a question.
Even if Nowitzki really recovers, Nowitzki has not integrated into the team system for various reasons, which is also a big problem for the Mavericks.
You can't just point to Nowitzki's singles. Kidd, as the on-court coach, temporarily deals with the offense, right?
That's too easy to target.
However... the most important thing now is not whether Nowitzki can integrate into the team system immediately. On the contrary, did Nowitzki really break the psychological barrier? The Grizzlies have a headache about this. For the Mavericks, come on.
Say it is more critical.
After discussing with the members of the coaching staff, Coach Carlisle made a decision.
We should use Nowitzki's performance tonight as an opportunity to help Nowitzki regain his confidence in the playoffs!
Nowitzki's strength is absolutely fine. In the past five years, he has been 1 team and 1 second team. This year's regular season performance is still the best among the power forwards in the league.
There are just psychological obstacles. Nowitzki has been in the past two years and has won two teams every second and one team. He has also led the team to a good record in the regular season. He has won more than 50 games for two consecutive years, but he lost early in the playoffs.
If Nowitzki can get rid of psychological barriers, his playing style will be fine to maintain his peak period for another one or two years!
Coach Carlisle understands that they have no hope of winning the championship this year. When they meet Gasol and Bynum at the center position... I won’t talk about these two, Odom can hold their center against each other.
Then what to do is very simple.
Rearrange tactics around Nowitzki’s singles!
Even if we go back to the singles tactics before 2007, we must find a way to make Nowitzki confident!
...
When the Mavericks coaching team was holding a team coaching team meeting, Nowitzki, the main star of their discussion, was having a heart-to-heart talk with Kidd.
Tonight is special for Nowitzki.
Nowitzki likes to drink, but he usually doesn't drink it during the season. But when he returned to the hotel tonight, Kidd came with a bottle of red wine, and he drank a little too.
Kid poured three cups over there, and he fell on the sofa in Nowitzki's room while talking drunk.
Nowitzki came to the balcony and blew the cool night breeze, recalling the scene of the game tonight.
Before coming to Memphis, he was thinking about future matters.
He plans to retire after playing this year. He will be 32 years old in the summer. He will not be able to move forward in professional sports. The national team has no strength at the beginning of the century. Back then... they were the third in the world! They won it in 2002
World Championship bronze medal.
Now, their national team can't even enter the quarterfinals of Europe and cannot even get out of the European Championship group stage.
Combining all factors, he felt that his basketball career could come to an end.
I have made enough money, except for the out-of-reach championship...
However, the afternoon before yesterday, Nowitzki, who came to Memphis, listened to a lovely opera. The words in the inspirational opera made him clear away the confusion that was shrouded in the road ahead of his career.
In tonight's game, he really did it as a test of whether he has the ability to playoffs!
Bathil was almost poked into his eyes, and he still wanted to throw. He knew that if he performed poorly and the opponent would attack so well tonight, they would be finished.
If he doesn't make a shot, he will definitely not perform well, but he will definitely not perform well without a shot. He knows how important he is to the team.
Since that's the case, it's better to vote!
Then, he succeeded!
This game is particularly critical for Nowitzki!
Back in the living room of the suite, poured a glass of red wine and took a sip. Nowitzki still felt strange, and Germans should drink beer.
But that's it!
"From now on, I won't drink beer anymore, and I'll drink red wine bar from now on!"
Nowitzki feels it's time to change himself!

...
Both team coaching teams are working overtime for the current needs or for the future.
After participating in the team meeting, Sun Ce carried out Nash training method and finally practiced himself half-dead and got rid of his uneasiness about his situation.
Back at the apartment, turned on the air conditioner, took a bath and soaked in the bathtub. Sun Ce took a deep breath under the obstruction of water pressure.
“Reverse battle against the Nothing King (b):
Goal: Win the fourth series with the Mavericks and organize Dirk Nowitzki to lead the team to tie the score.
Event Reward: Novesky Technology Random Draw Card.
Punishment of failure: None.”
Looking at the description of this incident, Sun Ce thought: "Reverse battle of the Nothing King... Should I defeat the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Nothing King of the Demons? But Nowitzki is really amazing!
When he got rid of his psychological barrier, he was invincible!
However, the previous sweep reward of the Cow Slaughter Bear was put here.
This time, two events are gathered together, right? If you lose in the fourth game, this event will fail, and the previous event will also fail..."
Sun Ce started to soak in the bathtub and thought about the current incident and the current situation.
It is said that it is the most inspiring in the bathroom, but Sun Ce feels that it is really the case.
Sun Ce thought about the changes in the team and his own thoughts since the playoffs.
Now, whether it is the media, fans, their team, or the players themselves... it seems like they are guilty of losing.
It seems like they deserve to win!
This is not right!
Before the playoffs began, it was clearly agreed that the game to the playoffs had exceeded expectations. If you can win in the first round, you will make a profit, and it doesn’t matter if you lose.
Why is it the opposite now?
Sure enough, my thoughts are not clear. When I am under great pressure, I should try to mess with my body and spend all my extra effort, and my thoughts become clear!
