Nelson used Durant's undercover attack on the court to exchange for Kwame Brown's foul. The effect was very, very obvious.

Three failures were exchanged for one success, which increased Kwame Brown's foul count from two to three. Nelson felt it was worth it.

Carlisle on the sidelines was gnashing his teeth in anger.

Carlisle is also a stubborn person.

Since you want to exchange points for Kwame Brown's fouls, then I will continue to keep Kwame Brown on the court when Kwame Brown commits three fouls and is in foul trouble!

See if you are really behind by more than ten points, do you still dare to let Durant do this to Kwame Brown?

Kwame Brown is in great pain. He can only be a thief for a thousand days, but how can he guard against a thief for a thousand days?

No matter how focused and well he does on the defensive end, KD will always find an opportunity.

KD did a great job!

He has indeed developed a great immunity to Durant's way of drawing fouls, and his immunity is even getting higher and higher.

In the next game, Kwame Brown can even confirm that Durant will definitely not be able to use such a move to create another foul crisis for him!

However, that is the next game, and that is when his foul count is cleared and recalculated!

This game really doesn’t work!

I have to say, the two fouls caused by KD without any precautions in the first quarter were really hurtful!

These two fouls were the bottom line, so the Sonics and KD would tease him unscrupulously!

first!

Second time!

The third time!

The fourth time!

The fifth time!

This time, Durant's fifth attempt resulted in Kwame Brown's foul.

At this time, the Seattle SuperSonics' deficit has increased from three points to eight points!

Durant made two free throws, and the eight-point difference became six points, and Kwame Brown already had 4 fouls!

If three fouls in the first half is a minor foul crisis, then four fouls in the first half is an absolute serious foul crisis. No matter what, if the players want to continue the game, they must leave the game!

So with two minutes left in the second quarter, Kwame Brown watched Durant come off the court with "grievance" and "reluctance". The Mavericks fans and reporters on the sidelines were watching.

What a jaw-dropper!

"Can we still play this game like this?"

"I seem to have watched a game full of shark-killing tactics..."

"The shark-killing tactic seems to be the same as that of Old Nelson..."

"Which of your two tactics is more disgusting?"

"Durant's foul is even more disgusting than the shark-cutting tactic!"

"That's of course. To cut a shark is to foul yourself and others to take free throws. But Durant's method is to make free throws to others. The disadvantages are blocked by others and the benefits are taken away by yourself!"

"It can't be said that in order to make Kwame Brown foul twice in the second quarter, Durant's second attempt failed. Except for one jump shot that turned into a pass in the seven times, there were no mistakes or irons. The other six times were three mistakes.

,Three strikes!”

"The price Durant and the Sonics paid for these two fouls is still very high."

"But it's all worth it!"

Of course it is worth it. Using a six-point deficit in exchange for Kwame Brown's fate is already a very, very profitable thing for the SuperSonics and Nelson!

If possible, Nelson would even be willing to double up!

It is not impossible to trade Kwame Brown's fate with a 12-point deficit!

Because it turns out that Kwame Brown is the password for the SuperSonics in this game!

In just two minutes after Kwame Brown left the field, the quality of the Mavericks' offense and defense once again collectively declined.

It only took the SuperSonics two minutes to erase the six-point deficit they had set to defeat Kwame Brown!

58 to 58!

At the end of the half, the two teams once again returned to the same starting line. The scores looked the same, but Kwame Brown entered the second half with four fouls!

Therefore, this situation is not to mention the Mavericks parties such as Nelson and Mavericks players.

Even the Mavericks fans on the sidelines know how big the crisis is for the Mavericks now.

"The current situation with the Mavericks reminds me of the SuperSonics two years ago. When the SuperSonics were playing the playoffs with the Spurs, Popovich and Duncan tried their best to foul Milicic. At that time, the SuperSonics

There is only one trustworthy player in the Sonics' insiders, Milicic. If he goes down, everything will be over!"

"I didn't expect that in just two years, the Sonics would turn from a victim with a weak lineup to a perpetrator!"

"In just three years in the SuperSonics, Yes has cultivated Milicic, Millsap and Gasol, these inside pillars can stand alone!"

This season is the first season that the Mavericks have truly completed their rebuilding.

The completion of the reconstruction only means that the team's structure and foundation are completed, but outside the structure and foundation, there is still a lot of decoration that needs to be done.

The Mavericks' current lineup is indeed very, very crude.

The inside line relies too much on Kwame Brown's role.

As for the outside line, it relies too much on Afflalo's role.

Neither of them has a qualified substitute, and there is a lack of a good enough defensive substitute inside and outside the team.

Carlisle knew all this.

He is also willing to pay the tuition for this reason, but he really doesn't want to pay such tuition!

The situation he wants to see when paying tuition is that Kwame Brown and Afflalo fight hard against their opponents, but in the end they are exhausted and the team loses.

Instead of like now, Kwame Brown still has available physical strength and energy, but he just can't use it!

This can be really frustrating!

In the second quarter, in order to fight for courage with Nelson, Kwame Brown did not commit three fouls. In the end, Kwame Brown committed four fouls.

This is a huge hidden danger for calves.

After the start of the second half, Carlisle did not continue to be so aggressive.

Kwame Brown did not play in the third quarter.

Kwame Brown is really important to the Mavericks!

It's not just important to Afflalo, the core of the organization.

It is also very important for Nowitzki, the core of the Mavericks!

Because of Kwame Brown's force on the offensive end, Nowitzki has enough space to beat Millsap one-on-one.

The Sonics would not dare to use outside players to double-team Nowitzki.

The Mavericks' perimeter players attack too hard, and double-teaming them from the outside is looking for death!

With Kwame Brown, Milicic didn't dare to double-team Nowitzki easily.

This makes Nowitzki's game against Millsap an easy and comfortable one.

No one can handle Nowitzki one-on-one.

But when Kwame Brown came off and replaced by Dampier, the situation was completely different.

Dampier doesn't need much energy from Milicic at all. Where does Milicic's remaining energy go?

Of course it's Nowitzki's place!

In the second quarter, the Mavericks' six-point deficit was evened up in two minutes because the Mavericks were really not used to being without Kwame Brown. For a while, the team didn't know how to operate and was a little confused.

In the third quarter, after halftime break.

Apparently Carlisle has more arrangements.

Kwame Brown was not on the court, and the Mavericks were still very passive in the second half, but the chaos was gone.

The Mavericks began to play singles with key players.

Afflalo, Monta Alice, Josh Howard, and Nowitzki all have strong singles abilities.

These key players look for opportunities to play alone, cooperate as little as possible, and let Milicic participate in assisting defense as little as possible.

This tactic is correct.

Nelson also noticed that in the third quarter Carlisle was trying to stall for time and cowardly him!

This is to delay Kwame Brown until the fourth quarter and have a decisive battle with him!

The overall strength of Kwame Brown's Mavericks on the court is indeed beyond him.
