Chapter 495: Halftime, 10 points
"After losing to the Warriors away, the Mavericks had only one choice in the third game, and they won the game. It is undeniable that there are still teams who can win the final victory when they are behind 0:3, but this will obviously be a low-probability event. Xiaoye reads the whole line.
However, winning the Warriors is not an easy task for the Mavericks. Since the 19-game winning streak, the Warriors have been in excellent condition. The team's scorers have almost no downturn. Such a Warriors are terrifying. Eliminating the Spurs 4:1, the Warriors only did not perform well in the third game.
The third battle will be an opportunity for the Warriors, and it is also an opportunity that the Mavericks have to seize..."——espn
"'They just won two games earlier than us, and it's not the time to end.' Jason Terry said in his interview with our reporter.
Yes, the Mavericks were only 0:2 behind their opponents, and the team played both games away. Back at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, the Mavericks had complete hope of equalizing the score. They had the ability to do all of this, just like ending the opponent's nineteen consecutive victories. In the regular season, the two teams tied 2:2 in four encounters, and the same thing would be possible in the playoffs..." - Dallas Morning News.
After the Mavericks lost to the Warriors again in the second game, major media also made corresponding reports on the upcoming third game. Whether it is the media that support the Mavericks or the media that support the Warriors, they are very clear about the fact that if the Mavericks still want to retain the opportunity, they must win this game.
The outside world can see this clearly, and the Mavericks, who are all in the authorities, can also see it clearly. In this game, they have no capital to lose.
The same idea as the local media in Dallas is the Mavericks fans. In the eyes of all Mavericks fans, the team will definitely tie the total score, so when the Warriors and the Mavericks game is about to go, the American Airlines Center can see the "2:2" slogans held high everywhere.
Looking up at the slogans around, Yang Shuai shrugged and said to Tyrek Evans beside him: "Don't you think the Dallasian Yang is too far away? The third game is not over yet, and they are already looking forward to the results after the fourth game."
Evans nodded heavily: "Yes, the Santon Anionans also thought of 2:2 draw, but the result was 3:1. Now it seems that this is the case again?"
"3:1?Terick, I don't care what the final score will be, but it may not be 2:1 after this game. Perhaps, 3:0 is not bad?" Yang Shuai raised his lips proudly.
"This...of course, this is a good idea!" Evans shrugged, of course it is a good idea. If he can lead 3-0, it means they will have one and a half feet into the Western Conference Finals.
The Mavericks' home atmosphere was very good. When the players of the two teams stood near the center circle, there were loud cheers in the audience. However, such cheers did not give them the right to take the lead in attacking. The gap between Heywood and Chandler in terms of physical fitness cannot be compensated by cheers.
Watching the ball fall into Hinrich's hands, the cheers of the audience immediately turned into booing. However, for the players who have experienced many battles, they obviously would not be affected too much by such booing.
After rushing outside the three-point line, Hinrich quickly handed the ball to Yang Shuai, and at the same time, Chandler, who was inside, also pulled the cover from the outside.
Running past Chandler, Yang Shuai had to move another step to the side, because at this moment, Heywood was already waiting there early. Taking advantage of this time, Marion, who was following closely behind, quickly chased after him, and double-teamed the latest chapter of the Xiaoyao Prince of Another World!
The Mavericks actually double-teamed at the beginning of the game, which was indeed beyond Yang Shuai's expectations, but his forward rush did not stop. Leaning on Heywood, Yang Shuai forced forward rushing forward, and then he threw the ball into Chandler's hand, who was immediately cut into the inside.
When receiving the ball, Chandler didn't even dribble, but stepped forward directly. He has played too many such attacks this season.
However, just as he was rushing forward and preparing to take off, he found resistance coming from the front and disappeared in an instant.
"Beep!" Before Chandler could react, the whistle sounded from the referee's mouth. Chandler glanced at Nowitzki who was lying on the ground, and then looked at the referee. At this time, the referee was making a judgment gesture and attacking a foul.
"Fake!" Seeing that he was about to complete a beautiful attack, but turned into an offensive foul, Chandler couldn't help but curse in his heart.
When he arrived at the other end, Chandler pressed tightly against Nowitzki. He had just made an offensive foul by the opponent, and he had to find some of the situation. He knew that the Mavericks' attack was likely to start from the German in front of him.
Chandler was thinking really well. He had just stuck Nowitzki, and Kidd, who was outside the three-point line, had already adjusted the mismatch.
After receiving the ball, he turned around to face the basket. Nowitzki quickly raised his hand and made the move to shoot. Although Chandler didn't jump immediately, his body's center of gravity couldn't help but rise slightly. Seizing this opportunity, Nowitzki smashed the ball to the ground and dribbled the ball towards the basket.
Chandler's reaction was extremely fast. Almost as Nowitzki started dribbling, he had quickly adjusted and moved his steps.
Nowitzki, who was rushing forward, directly hit Chandler. Following the rebound force, the German jumped quickly and threw the ball with a backward tilt.
"Swish!" Nowitzki, who made contributions on the defensive end, also did the offensive end, with the Mavericks' first wave of offense, scoring.
The Mavericks started the game with a 9-point gap. Although the Warriors followed up, they brought vigilance to the Warriors. Therefore, Old Nelson emphasized that the team should pay attention to the start. He could expect that the Mavericks today will definitely have a stronger victory than the previous game.
Because of this, Warriors players pay great attention to the start, whether it is their own offense or their defense against the Mavericks. However, even so, after the first quarter, the Warriors still lag behind the opponent.
21:25, in this quarter, the Warriors only scored 21 points, but this is not because the Warriors' offense is too poor, but because the Mavericks' defense is indeed very oppressive in this quarter.
The American Airlines Center cheered, and the team's performance in the first quarter made them extremely satisfied, and the cheers continued to ring in the second quarter.
The big reason why Rick Carlisle was selected as the head coach by the Warriors' senior management is that he is a defensive coach, and in fact he has been improving the team's defense.
Defense is the fundamental reason why the Mavericks can lead in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Mavericks still start with defense.
Whether it is the Warriors' substitute or the starter present, the Warriors always seem to find it difficult to play too smoothly. Whenever this happens, it means that the Warriors have indeed encountered some trouble.
Although the Warriors' defense has changed a bit this season, it is undeniable that the real strength of the Warriors lies in their offense. Their offensive strength ranks first in the league this season. Defence is often just a supporter, sometimes even just for a better offense. Offense is the real main theme of the Warriors. When their offense cannot be played, the game will become extremely difficult.
Seeing that the second quarter was half over, the Warriors had only 10 points to score. Old Nelson on the field couldn't help but shake his head, waved his hand, and called out a timeout.
"Yang, in the next time in the second quarter, you only have one task, score! Score constantly!" After the Warriors player walked off the court, Old Nelson shouted in an unquestionable tone.
Scoring is what Yang Shuai is best at. After receiving instructions from old Nelson, he also realized that he should indeed stand up to help the team. Yang Shuai will concentrate on attacking in the next time.
When Yang Shuai was determined to attack, he was always able to help the team solve the battle, but today's things were different.
Yang Shuai scored 9 points in the second half of the second quarter, and under his leadership, the Warriors' offense improved greatly in this half quarter. Although he only scored 10 points in the first half quarter, he scored 25 points in the whole quarter.
Even so, the Warriors did not get close to the points, but the score difference was widened to 10 points because the Mavericks' offense beat them better.
After Yang Shuai missed the buzzer-beating three-pointer at a long distance, the first half ended at 45:55.
The Mavericks once again contributed their applause without hesitation, sending off the Mavericks' player channel. Of course, the Warriors fans on the other side obviously had this treatment. Just as they walked through the player channel, there were quite a booing sounds on both sides of the passage.
Leading 10 points in the first half is indeed worthy of the cheers of the Mavericks fans. Whether it is cheers or boos, this can only be an alternative irony for Yang Shuai.
At the end of the first half, Yang Shuai scored 20 of the team's 45 points alone. His offense was indeed very good, but under the pressure of the Mavericks, he did not get much support from his teammates.
Stepping into the locker room of the visiting team, Yang Shuai immediately came to his position. When all his teammates had already come in, he had already stood up from his seat. He felt that he should indeed say something.^-^138 Reading Network (www.) Read without window^-^
