Chapter 584: Mighty Ade, Stronger Warrior

Fans often have an incorrect impression of the players.

For example, Dirk Nowitzki is softer and not tough enough, and LaMarcus Aldridge is softer.

It's smarter, it's not soft, there's no absolute relationship between that, but fans don't think so. , as long as you don't fight hard enough, you think you're soft, and Qin Yang doesn't know how this general idea was formed.

The whole Trail Blazers team played well.

LaMarcus Aldridge almost blew up the Mavericks' interior, but the Trail Blazers still lost, and there was no suspense about losing.

In this era, the inside line is important, but the outside line is more important.

After the outside line is blown up, the inside line plays well and cannot play a key role.

On March 9, the Mavericks played the Pacers on the road.

The Pacers are also working towards a championship this year, and in this game, the Pacers played fiercely.

But the Mavericks are stronger and more efficient overall.

Vince Carter, Marion, Cosby, Calderón, the four shot more than 50 percent, and although they made good shots, they scored more than 10.

Seth Curry had his best game of the game, scoring 20 points on 6-of-9 shooting and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line.

The true hit rate is 89%.

With this efficiency, Qin Yang has to kneel!

Under the Mavericks' play, the Pacers were stunned all over the court, Paul George was 8 of 14, and the efficiency value was very high, with 24 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists, but the Pacers still lost.

The Mavericks, who are good at shooting, are on target, and others really can't play.

A rehearsal of the finals that was said to be good, and it was over.

After the game, Qin Yang and Paul George had a pleasant exchange.

Among the black players in the league, one is more bizarre than the other, and Paul George is one of the more normal, he plays not only well, but also has a better personality, and has almost no shortcomings.

If you want to pick a teammate, Paul George is the right one.

No. 11, home against the Warriors.

The Warriors now have a competitive roster, and before the trade deadline, the Warriors traded Klay Thompson, and the backcourt splash combination has begun to reverberate across the league.

With the addition of Bogut, Barnes and Draymond Green, the Warriors' roster is not so famous, but it is very strong.

But what's the use of that?

Curry's defense is too poor, Klay Thompson is still difficult to take on the job, Draymond Green doesn't shoot well enough, he has a lot of turnovers, and Barnes doesn't shoot well.

The best of all is Bogut.

But Bogut is just a mediocre star now, and he has a good ability to protect the frame.

This game, from the very beginning, fell into the rhythm of the Mavericks.

Klay Thompson defended Qin Yang, and Qin Yang let go of the fight.

Making fouls, shooting three-pointers, and using speed and rhythm advantages to force breakthroughs, Qin Yang has many options, and Klay Thompson can't prevent it.

Klay's defense is strong, and that showed when he was with the Kings.

But Klay Thompson's slow speed is also the main weakness that affects his defense, otherwise Klay Thompson's draft pick would not be so low.

Al Jefferson and Qin Yang became the core of the inside and outside line in this game.

Qin Yang on the outside exploded, and Al Jefferson on the inside exploded. The Warriors were helpless.

On the 12th, the Mavericks host the Jazz.

The Jazz were interested in Gobert before the trade deadline and wanted to trade, but were rejected by the Mavericks, and in this game, Gobert successfully showed his advantage in front of the Jazz, no matter who broke through to the interior on the outside of the Jazz, Gobert could interfere in place.

The Jazz's current lineup is to pass the ball from the outside and then force the inside.

It's simple and crude, but it works.

But when you meet Gobert, the Jazz team is embarrassed.

Gobert had 9 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks, but was named the best of the game for the first time after the game, and the Jazz's offense looked like it was being stopped by Gobert alone.

The Mavericks won with ease.

At the post-game press conference, Qin Yang did not hesitate to praise Gobert:

"There's no doubt that he's going to be the big man on the inside, maybe in two or three years, Gobert will be the best defensive player, and any player who wants to hit the interior will feel a tingling in the scalp because it's forbidden to shoot here."

Qin Yang was indeed satisfied with Gobert's defense.

But to really put it mildly, Qin Yang doesn't think Gobert's defense is better than Howard's.

Gobert can only help defend, interfere with outside shooting, and when he encounters a power inside, he will be crushed, which will not be much better even in a few years.

Howard is different, Howard's top defense and help defense ability is among the best in the league, and he almost builds a team's defensive system by himself.

Gobert is a bit worse by comparison.

But purely in terms of reach and speed, Gobert seems to be a little better.

In any case, Gobert's draft is not a loss at all.

In the two-year draft, there were two interior players who played surprisingly well, one was Gobert of the Mavericks and the other was Steve Nadams of the Thunder.

Adams was a bit miserable, although the efficiency value was high, but the team had Ibaka and did not play much.

Gobert was just as miserable, but with Nowitzki's injury, Gobert had a lot of opportunities this year. It's no wonder that the Jazz coveted Gobert and were even willing to trade the current core Gordon Hayward.

This chip made the Mavericks hesitate a little at one point.

Gordon Hayward is a good swingman on the perimeter, excellent defensively and offensively, good at playing off the ball, and has few shortcomings.

This kind of player is an important member of the championship.

But the Mavericks still refused.

This year, the Mavericks are already weak on the inside, and Nowitzki is injured again, so if Gobert is traded for such a lineup, it will be even more difficult for the Mavericks to play inside.

After this game, the team finally had a rare three-day break.

After this game, the Mavericks will travel to Goose City to play the Thunder. This game is also considered a preview of the Western Conference Finals.

Well, there's nothing wrong with it, there are more Western Conference finals.

This year's NBA West players, the difference in strength is very small. Six or seven teams, whoever makes it to the finals is likely, so at the end of the regular season, these teams will play a lot of highlights.

The Thunder have been terrifying in these seasons.

Perhaps the most depressing thing is the departure of James Harden, which has weakened the strength of the Thunder a lot, but the strength of the Thunder is still very strong, Reggie Jackson took over the baton after James Harden left, and the performance is very standard, plus the Thunder are more mature, everyone thinks that the Thunder is now ranked first in the West.

But in terms of record, the Mavericks are in first place.
