The Mavericks attacked, Al Jefferson covered again, and this time, Qin Yang instantly met the bag, and James Jones and Kelly Irving pounced like crazy.

Qin Yang passed the ball to Al Jefferson, who was open in the middle distance and shot directly.

Kevin Love was noticeably more than a step slower.

The Mavericks' offense is still open.

The Cavaliers attacked, James made a layup, and finally made a successful foul, James made 1 of 2 free throws, and Al Jefferson grabbed the second rebound.

The Mavericks attacked, Qin Yang was on the outside, Rudy Gay covered, Qin Yang broke through again, this time, Qin Yang met the bag in the middle distance position, Qin Yang directly hit the ground and passed to Al Jefferson, Al Jefferson turned and easily hooked his hand.

Kevin Lefu stood in an awkward position, although he defended Qin Yang, but he gave Al a chance.

The Mavericks started the game and didn't play badly on the offensive end.

Especially Qin Yang's first two three-pointers, he beat the Cavaliers, and the Cavaliers focused on Qin Yang, and Qin Yang's teammates turned on.

Al Jefferson, Corebrewer, and Rudy Gay scored back-to-back points, and the Mavericks actually led all the way at home.

Seven minutes into the first quarter, the Cavaliers called a timeout.

"A lot of people think that Dirk's absence has a big impact on the Mavericks, and I don't deny that, but the boss of the Mavericks is Bruce, and with him, the Mavericks are still a strong team, which is an indisputable fact."

Kenny Smith said this during the timeout.

O'Neill echoed this:

"Maybe the Cavaliers will turn the score around, but the Dallas aren't without a fight. This game will be more exciting than expected. ”

"That's right, the key is to see if the Mavericks will be pulled away when Bruce is off."

……

The pause will come back soon.

The Cavaliers were the first to make substitutions, with J.R. Smith replacing James Jones and the Mavericks replacing Cory Brewer with Cosby.

Now it is unrealistic to play fast attack, and when it comes to positional warfare, Casby has a greater role.

Kelly Irving dribbled over the half court, he directly held the ball and singled, Cosby faced Kelly Irving, showing helplessness, Kelly Irving accelerated with a light change of direction and passed the layup.

Al stuck in position and wanted to interfere with Irving's layup.

But Kelly Irving made a direct mid-range pull-up jump shot, a steady one.

In terms of offensive skills alone, Kelly Irving is already one of the top players in the NBA. Irving is very skilled in various offensive skills and has few offensive flaws.

The Mavericks attacked, and JR Smith defended Qin Yang alone.

Qin Yang took the ball and motioned for the others to pull away.

J.R. Smith was cautious.

Qin Yang's body was crossover, JR Smith didn't shake, Qin Yang accelerated, broke through on the right side, JR's body changed, and he directly forgot about the right side and retreated.

Qin Yang pulls the ball and breaks through on the left side.

J.R. Smith changed again, leaning to the left.

But then, Qin Yang pulled the ball again and jumped directly to shoot.

Sou!

Three-pointers scored.

The cheers of the DJ and the fans at the scene instantly sounded, JR Smith had an ugly face, this ball, JR Smith defended very well, but Qin Yang used the rhythm to shake off a little space and shoot a three-point shot.

Qin Yang returned to defense, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"This ball can't be played like this forever."

Qin Yang's ball seems very simple, but in fact, his teammates are standing by and watching, helping Qin Yang open up the space, while Qin Yang is two feints, shaking off the space to shoot, this offensive action seems to be simple and elegant, but it actually consumes a lot of energy and physical strength, Qin Yang is tired after hitting a dozen balls like this.

What's more, if Qin Yang plays alone, his teammates will be wasted.

The Cavaliers attacked, James passed to Kevin Love, and Love finally hit the iron under Qin Yang's change of defense.

Al Jefferson got the rebound, Qin Yang made a cover with Casby after half court, Qin Yang passed to Rudy Gay, and Rudy Gay shot the iron from mid-range.

The fans at the scene were disappointed.

Rudy Gay was also a little discouraged.

This ball, it should be scored, Qin Yang has attracted the defense, but from another point of view, in these few rounds, Qin Yang is holding the ball, Rudy Gay didn't even touch the ball, he received the pass fiercely, and it is understandable that he feels cold, this ball seems to have nothing to do with Qin Yang, but there is also Qin Yang's pot.

Kevin Love got the rebound, the Cavaliers attacked, James passed to JR Smith, JR Smith shot directly from mid-range, and Tristan Thompson scored a layup.

The Mavericks attacked, Rudy Guy covered, and Qin Yang took a three-point shot directly with the help of cover. ，

Sou!

Three-pointers go in again.

But then, Qin Yang hit two consecutive three-pointers, and the Cavaliers took the opportunity to get the score back, and the first quarter ended with the two teams tied.

Qin Yang played so well in the first quarter, but the Mavericks only tied.

The Cavaliers' Big Three were all average, but they also recovered the point difference.

That's where the lineup comes in, with the Big Three on the court, the Cavaliers are a little stronger than they think.

During the break, Qin Yang sat on the chair, and the masseur kept massaging.

Next to him, Coach Carlisle was giving the team the final instructions.

Soon, at the beginning of the second quarter, Qin Yang stayed on the bench Hill, and there were massive changes to the Mavericks' lineup, with Al Jefferson being replaced, Marion, Rudy Gay, Cosby, Seth Curry and Gobert playing the second quarter.

This lineup is very bold.

Marion has played an average of 5.6 minutes per game this season and is already a substitute among the benches, because the team's interior strength is not weak and the forward position is also very strong, so Marion has few opportunities to play.

It's not a big deal, though.

Marion is getting older and will retire after this playoffs.

In the last few years, it was a great experience for Marion to stay with the Mavericks and win two or three championships, so Marion had no problem even if he played a short time.

Marion has been a big help in stabilizing the dressing room this season.

Now Dirk is injured and Marion has to play again.

This substitute lineup is a desperate fight.

The defense of Cosby and Seth Curry on the outside is poor, and Marion on the inside is also very old, and his speed and bounce are not as good as when he was younger. Once this lineup is beaten into a sieve, the Mavericks are finished.

But when the game started, the Mavericks didn't lag behind.

Kelly Irving singled Seth Curry at the beginning, and the situation was not as bad as imagined, Irving's hand dropped in the second quarter, and the breakthrough was limited by Seth Curry again, and the play was a little dirty.

The same goes for Kevin Love, Marion has an excellent arm span and interferes with Kevin Love's shooting, and Gobert is strong enough to rebound.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Cavaliers did not open up the gap.

But five minutes into the second quarter, the Cavaliers came back from a timeout, and Irving and Love began to explode.
