Chapter 494: Fight with your opponent and consume him to death!
In the second quarter, rotation battle!
Well, for a format where if you lose the series, you have to go home and fish, there is no such thing as rotation or not.
On the Thunder side, they continue to fight for wealth. The team is led by Su Bei and Harden, and the others are Yin Baka, Collison, and Billups.
The strength is just different from that of the Five Tigers, but their talent and fighting ability are at the championship level.
On the Mavericks side, Carlisle is still following the old routine, led by sixth man Terry and Dirk Nowitzki, and rotating in Carter, Delonte West and Brandon White.
Just looking at popularity, the Mavericks are not inferior to the Thunder.
After all, apart from Nowitzki, Terry and Carter, West is a man known as the King.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Mavericks team.
Terry took the ball to the frontcourt, used DDM tactics, and dribbled the ball past Billups.
“Push forward, fight and retreat, and when Su Bei assists in defense, the basketball will be lost.
Billups cut off the basketball and immediately pushed the ball forward to counterattack.
A 2-on-2 situation formed in the frontcourt, and Billups dribbled the ball through the middle. Sure enough, he passed the ball to Su Bei on the left, and dribbled the ball in from outside the three-point line.
Hey, it was so messy, I just raised my hand and shot a three-point pull-up jumper..."
Carter did not expect that Su Bei was so ungrateful. He was careless and did not follow up. Instead, he copied the traditional operation and retreated to the basket.
This kind of defensive choice is the most scientific. Whenever the opponent wants to score steadily, it is most reasonable to attack the basket.
Who would have thought that Su Bei is so brave.
The two points that were prudent and the three points that were risky were placed in front of me, but I actually chose the three points, which was completely off the mark.
Even if he wants a three-pointer, shouldn't he go for a layup and rush to the basket to make 2-1?
As for betting on the illusory three-point shot, there is really no need to do so!
No choice, facing Su Bei's outrageous operation, he could only listen to the sound of gunshots.
Swish——!
With the sword raised and lowered, Su Bei's three-pointer continued with three-point firepower.
"OMG!
I don’t understand, how can we give Su Bei space to shoot?
Doesn't Vince Carter know that Su Bei's three-pointers, open shots and free throws have similar shooting percentages?"
“No, it’s definitely not comparable to the free throw shooting percentage!
After all, Subei's free throws are even more terrifying.
If it's compared to O'Neal's free throws, just pretend I didn't say it..."
28 to 27!
The point difference becomes 1 point.
The offense and defense transitioned, and the Mavericks made a steady move.
"Terry put that damn basketball in Nowitzki's hands.
Faced with Collison.
After three threats, he dribbled the ball to break through, pulled it up and shot. With Collison's height and talent, he tried his best to block shots just for show..."
Bang-dang——!
The basketball hoop flew out.
The offensive talent is strong, but the basket is not used to him. It is of no use to mess around on the outside.
"Nowitzki made a two-point pull-up jumper, and it was another Thunder counterattack.
Billups controls the ball, Su Bei and Harden are like two sharp blades piercing the Mavericks' sides. Let's see whose card will be turned over?
Hey, Billups didn't favor Su Bei alone. He chose to take advantage of the rain and dew and hit the ground and passed the ball to Harden on the right.
What the hell?
After a few moves, Harden copied Su Bei's work and took a three-point shot... No, it was beautiful.
This is worshiping Buddha!
The fake shot was really sudden, Harden was so good, he was also chasing after him, but he used a European step for a layup..."
Beep——!
Bang-dang——!
Terry showed his experience in the playoffs. He couldn't steal the ball and directly sent Harder to the free throw line to make a free throw, showing the iron blood of the Mavericks.
Standing on the free throw line, Harden didn't, and with two swish sounds, he made the free throw steadily.
28 to 29!
Su Bei and Harden, the explosive combination of Xiaowang, scored 5 points together at the beginning of the second quarter, helping the Thunder achieve a lead in the score.
“The Thunder’s bench depth is truly terrifying.
It's as hard as it gets, and it still looks young and has staying power.
It’s really unbearable to rush!
Popularity does not mean strength. The depth of the Mavericks' bench is no longer what it used to be.
The most painful thing is age.
They are too old, their skills are useless, and their physical talents are not enough, so they will be tougher than their opponents..."
Off the court, Coach Carlisle's face was a little solemn.
The score advantage gained by relying on Terry to go crazy early is gone.
Fortunately, he didn't panic.
With Dirk Nowitzki as a great guy, why should he be panicking?
On the court, Nowitzki took the ball and hit Collison with his back. Then, he set a screen for West who was cutting without the ball. They passed the ball hand to hand and gave it to West to rush up and beat the Thunder.
's back door.
Peng, shua——!
West and Nowitzki connected and easily penetrated the Thunder's defense.
"The Mavericks are not Nowitzki or Terry, one person is fighting.
They are a whole, and the Thunder's defense is just an individual. What can you use to top it?
You can't stand it!
"
"This technique is very familiar. Sure enough, Coach Carlisle copied his homework again. It looks like the Lakers' triangle offensive tactics..."
No matter whether it is a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat.
It doesn't matter whether he copied it or borrowed it, it doesn't matter.
You can score points, it’s not shabby!
30 to 29!
The Thunder's defense is still too bad.
The Mavericks can create offensive opportunities with simple cooperation.
Moreover, what hit was the Thunder's rim protection flaw.
No way, it's impossible to stop the Mavericks from scoring on defense.
If you can't defend yourself, you can only prevent the Mavericks from trying to defend you.
“The ball was in transition, and the Thunder tried to speed up, but were pressed down.
Sure enough, without Kidd, the Thunder can still control the rhythm of the game.
Billups dribbles the ball to the top of the arc, Terry defends, whose card does he turn over..."
At this time, Northern Jiangsu was heavily guarded by Carter.
Collison and Yin Baka can be considered offensively.
In the end, Billups chose to turn over Harden's card.
Harden versus West, the advantage lies with the Thunder.
With Harden's talent, to be honest, he is indeed better than West.
However, Harden continuously stepped down to dribble and broke through with the ball, and his offensive intention was predicted.
Among the Thunder's top five, there are two Thunder players, but there is no room for Harden.
Harden, as the draft pick in 2009, could only play as the sixth man.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After getting the ball, Harden will provide ammunition to his teammates and make his data look like a parallel importer?
No!
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
I bet Harden will play on his own to prove his talent against the name Tan Huayang.
To be fair, Harden's breakthrough skills are still very strong. However, facing the Mavericks, who mainly use jump shots as their offensive choice, they will not regard the Thunder's outside shots as alive at all.
The question is that the Thunder can score jump shots, but not as many as the Mavericks.
Offensive three threats selected.
Through the elimination method, it can be predicted that Harden will lose two major threats.
Passing and jump shots can be ruled out.
Harden only has a breakthrough.
"West pressed hard, but Harden still went inside.
It’s too chaotic and the basketball is going to be lost..."
Snapped--!
Delonte West seized the opportunity, cut off the basketball from Harden's hand, and counterattacked on the spot, finishing the game unbeatable.
Bang-dang——!
A slam dunk sent the basketball into the basket.
32 to 29!
It was just an accident!
Harden is still worth relying on.
In the next offensive round, when Su Bei was tightly defended by Carter, the Thunder team, which had no offensive cooperation, chose to challenge again.
The basketball is in Harden's hands again.
"Continuing to break through with the ball, West was pressing him, and he fought and retreated until Nowitzki came to help defend and attack.
What the hell?
Harden's European step was broken and the basketball was snatched by Nowitzki.
It's Harden, the old 6 again, with the basketball in his hand broken.
During the Mavericks' counterattack, Terry went to the frontcourt and made an easy layup..."
Swish——!
34 to 29!
Terry counterattacked and scored two points to help the Mavericks take a 5-point lead.
Of course, Harden's undercover assists are also very crucial.
This is the pain of being beaten randomly by Blind Jiba. What position will you use as a Thunder player? As a veteran of the Mavericks, I don’t need to pat my butt to know what position you will use.
If you can fight, what's the use?
After the Thunder have finished their offensive routines, it is Harden's turn to take action.
If he doesn't seize the opportunity to make a move, when the Thunder's two young men return to the court, Harden will only be able to play a walk-on role.
When the pass button is turned off, people are not afraid of you shooting, so they can only take the path of breakthrough to the end.
It’s not surprising that he will make mistakes again and again.
After two rounds, it was discovered that Harden was useless.
Billups decided to go up on his own, took the ball and beat Terry, and used his physical advantage to force his way to the basket.
"Carter shrank back, and the Mavericks' interior couldn't protect the basket, so they had to pile people inside.
boom--!
Sure enough, Billups chose to pass the ball to Su Bei in the left three-point corner.
That is the Thunder's most reliable offensive point.
However, the Mavericks seemed to have predicted it. Carter did not retreat deep enough to defend, and quickly pounced out, and then was missed.
Taking a step to the side, Su Bei made a three-point jump shot..."
Carter was sent flying in the air, and he could only bet that Su Bei's three-point pistol had no bullets, and he couldn't do the rest.
Bang-dang——!
Opportunities have arisen, and there are times when Su Bei fails to use them.
The basketball slid out of the hoop.
Even though he was halfway in, he still rolled out.
God is not on the side of Northern Jiangsu.
"What a shame, it's not a technical issue.
Well, if I have to give a question, I hope it is a question of character.
Last season, Su Bei was the most stable player on the Dallas Mavericks besides Nowitzki.
Now I turn to face my old club..."
With this kind of character, you still want to score goals.
I bother!
The rebound was picked off by Brandt White.
He is 2.08 meters tall, but has a length of 2.22 meters. Yin Baka did not lie down, and his length is really not comparable to Brant White.
But lying down is of no use in grabbing rebounds. You can't use your length to poke the ball, right?
Yin Baka can't grab it, which makes sense.
"In the Mavericks' offense, Terry brought the ball to the frontcourt and chose to break through.
After being flanked by the Thunder, he immediately distributed the ball to West, who then handed the damn basketball into Nowitzki's hands..."
Take the ball, pose as an offensive three-threat, take a step, and feint to lead the player to a breakthrough.
Even though Collison was keeping up with him, he didn't mess up. He turned around and touched his butt, and then pushed it with his butt. It made room for him, and it didn't matter if there was no water.
Shake your shoulders, turn around, pull the ball up, and raise your hand to shoot a golden rooster independent fadeaway jumper...
Collison tried his best to block the shot, but Nowitzki's feet blocked the distance.
He was leaning back and had the height advantage, so he could only hear the gunshot.
Swish——!
"pretty!
King Nuo's mid-range shot is so handsome.
He turned his mediocre jump shot into an art, and it was simple and unbeatable.
This is Nowitzki's offensive rhythm. Just by looking at his movements, you know the ball is safe..."
36 to 29!
Who would have thought that the Mavericks would be in the lead.
An 8-5 offensive failed to stop the game.
However, Scott Brooks obviously couldn't stand it anymore, and with a wave of his hand, Westbrook and Durant were replaced.
After the Thunder are eliminated, they will have plenty of time to rest, and now they don't have to rest on the bench.
"The Thunder are going to be more intense, and they won't be playing tricks with the Mavericks.
He just wants to control the main force and use his talent and endurance to bring down the Mavericks..."
The flaw in the lineup framework of the Mavericks nursing home is too obvious.
Moreover, the playoffs are a series. The Thunder can start from G1 and compete with the Mavericks to kill them.
Is this a long-term plan or a conspiracy?
The Mavericks had no cards in hand and did not follow. Let the bullets fly for a while before adjusting.
