People thought Marcus. Smart would have given Moodier a taste as soon as he got on the pitch, but it turned out that the Congolese had given Smart a big run.

Moodier is strong, athletic, and he has what it takes to defend well, but no one has taught him really good defensive habits before.

But now, next to Yiyang, the best defensive defender in the league. Moodier's basic conditions and Yiyang's guidance have made his defense more than a star and a half better than it was during the Nuggets period. In fact, Moodier has been doing well on the defensive end this season, but no one cared about this guy before.

Today's live broadcast of the game in the United States is likely to impress fans with Moodier.

Moodier didn't celebrate, didn't even make any expressions. He knows that the basketball is just being fanned out of the baseline, which means that the defense is not over yet, and he cannot let his guard down yet. He stuck to Smart's side, clinging to him like kraft candy. Smart was not good at attacking in the first place, and he was even more at a loss when he was posted like this by Moodier.

Although the Mavericks entered the rotation, they still played a tight defense. If you want to say that the defensive weakness of the Mavericks on the court now, it may be Kuzma who stands in the fourth position.

Kuzma's defensive habits and defensive skills are not good, but this guy is good enough. Marcus. Morris rolled over for a jumper, and Kuzma pounced aggressively, causing a huge distraction for Morris' shot. The Celtics, who originally wanted to open the score in this half-rotation time, missed the first attack.

After the missed shot, the Celtics almost gave up the scramble for rebounds in the frontcourt, and the whole team immediately retreated. Stevens knew he couldn't get the Mavericks running anyway. Let the Mavericks run and play, even the Spurs can't stop the car.

Seeing that the opponent's defense was so timely, Yiyang calmly advanced. While dribbling, he gestures to direct his teammates to run. The man who defends Yiyang from Jay. Brown became Smart, and in short, Stevens just didn't give Yiyang a chance to face Owen directly.

Yiyang stopped at the three-point line, Smart lowered his center of gravity and let Yiyang take a small step. He didn't dare to go too far, because Yiyang's three-point shot was equally deadly.

Hayward suddenly shook off Tatum with a reverse run and ran towards the bottom right corner. Yiyang stared at Hayward as if he was about to pass the ball. In fact, Yiyang suddenly turned his wrist and knocked the basketball in the opposite direction to Hayward, he wanted to break through!

Smart clings tightly, but Yiyang also has his own way. He turned around with a back to give Smart some duels and then brushed the defense with the move. After a turn, Yiyang entered the penalty area, and the Celtics' defense shrank throughout!

At this moment, Yiyang sent the basketball out of the crowd and passed it to Moodier, who was standing behind the free throw line. When Moodier received the ball, Owen made a frantic pave. This Congolese shoots badly, as long as he gives him a little interference, he can easily defend this ball!

However, no matter how fast Irving is, he can't get from the box to the free throw line in an instant. Moodier took his shot in stride, and only after he had shot the basketballs did Irving arrive.

Horford and Morris are stuck in position, hoping to grab this defensive rebound in the chaos! However, rebounding does not belong to either side because there is no rebounding at all. Moodier's mid-shot, hollow into the net!

"Yi's wonderful pass completely tore the Celtics' defense apart, and the Mavericks are leading by two points, can the Celtics stabilize the situation?"

All people saw was Yiyang's sharp breakthrough and exquisite passing, and no one cared about Moodier's composure and composure when shooting, which was very different from before.

With the Nuggets at the core, Moodier may not be up to the mark. But after progressing, he became a sixth person, but he did not disappoint Yiyang.

Irving and Smart then played a guard-and-guard pick-and-roll combination, and although he managed to break through Moodier, it took a lot of effort. If the Celtics had scored like this, Irving would have been exhausted in less than half a game. The Mavericks don't have any real defensive weaknesses anymore, not even Moodier and Kuzma.

Stevens stood anxiously on the sidelines, but the Celtics never took advantage of the rotation time.

Moodier had 5 points and 2 assists, and after his excellent play brought Yiyang off the court, the Mavericks still stabilized the situation. In the past, the Mavericks have lost the most points in rotation time, and it is also the easiest time for other teams to chase points. But now, this obvious shortcoming of the Mavericks has disappeared.

After 12 minutes of the first quarter, the Dallas Mavericks led by four points, 30-26! Stevens' plans were disrupted, and he obviously didn't expect a guy like Moodier to let the Mavericks get through the transition time safely.

After the start of the second quarter, the Celtics defended Yiyang more tightly. A team that can defend Curry with frequent iron is still quite deep in defensive skills. But what Stevens never expected was that Kelly. Irving's defense is still a challenge!

It's not that Yiyang frequently switches positions to play Owen, but Mitchell's impact makes Owen extremely headache.

Mitchell, who was substituted early in the first quarter, is now full of energy and wants to vent all his strength. Break through with the ball, Mitchell can play. Cutting off the ball, Mitchell is just as good at it.

At the beginning, Mitchell first burst with the ball himself and forced a layup. If it weren't for the referee's loose scale, this goal might have scored three points.

A round later, Kuzma actively interfered with Tatum's three-point shot, Yiyang personally grabbed the rebound and held the ball fast, and suddenly split the ball after entering the restricted area to attract the defense. Mitchell, who cut in from the middle, caught the ball and jumped, and Horford could only watch as the No. 45 rookie soared into the sky and smashed the basketball into the frame with an unstoppable attitude.

"Eight points down, the situation is very bad for the Celtics! Their defensive focus is on Yiyang, but Donovan. Mitchell is noticeably more active! ”

After the next goal, Owen finally strengthened his marking of Mitchell, making it no longer easy for him to catch the ball. The Celtics weren't stunned, and their defensive intensity came up again.

This time, even Yiyang had a hard time finding a gap. After passing the ball several times, he still couldn't tear through the Celtics' defense. In the end, Gobert covered Yiyang, and Yiyang took a shot directly after borrowing the cover. Because at this time, the 24-second offensive time was about to be exhausted, and Yiyang had no choice.

Horford's defense was very quick and timely, and Yiyang's shot of the basketball just happened to pass Horford's fingertips, which was seriously interfered with.

"The Celtics defended very well this round! They defended for 24 seconds! ”

Yiyang, the basketball that was forced to be thrown, knocked out of the frame, Stevens breathed a sigh of relief, and the team finally relieved itself. As long as the defense doesn't collapse, it's not afraid of being taken away by the Mavericks in waves.

But just as Irving was about to jump up and close the rebound to end the round of defense, a dark shadow jumped in from him.

Donovan. Mitchell took off into the air before everyone could react, grabbed the basketball that didn't hit, and then hung the frame with one hand without waiting for the air to land, and successfully made up the dunk!

"Boom!"

The basketball hoop was trembling slightly, and the entire U.S. Route Center arena was shaking. Owen looked confused, how high did that guy jump just now? The head is almost fucking flat!

"Donovan. Mitchell! The incredible rookie guard, the last time he faced the Rockets, he made up his own shot! This time, he made a dunk on Irving's head at an incredible height! Let's look at the slow-motion replay, oh my God, his head and basket are flush! ”

Looking at the picture of Mitchell mending the button, Yiyang got goosebumps, because even he didn't expect it. Although this dunk was successful, a large part of the reason was that Horford was pulled out by Yiyang and did not rush back to the restricted area to protect the rebound, resulting in the Celtics not having a high point in the three-second zone. But even then, the deduction was scary enough. Before anyone else could start jumping, Mitchell had already grabbed the basketball and dunked it directly.

Chris. Paul's favor, Yiyang may owe a little too much.

Mitchell scored six straight points in the second quarter, and his momentum made the Celtics' impregnable defense be forced out of a hole! Coach Stevens called out the game to see the look on his sad face. At the start of the second quarter, they were only four points behind. But now less than five minutes have passed, and the margin has widened to double digits! ”

Mitchell, Stevens didn't expect that the person who pulled the difference apart would be Mitchell. The Celtics proved to be very successful in defending Yiyang. Yiyang has lost the ball many times today under the active defense of the opponent, and only Stevens and his team in the league may be able to limit Yiyang like this.

But the result? As a result, they still let the Mavericks pull the score away. This team always seems to have someone who can step up, and you finally see that one point will kill you, and the other point will give you a fatal blow!

After returning from a timeout, the Celtics continued to tighten up defensively. Mitchell was very embarrassed by Irving, and he was still a rookie, and his personal ability was not strong enough to beat Irving.

But with Mitchell's restraint, Yiyang came back to life at that point. Jay. Can Brin really protect against Yiyang? The answer is clearly no. If Yiyang and Brown go head-to-head, it will definitely be Brown winning. But it has never been Yiyang's style.

After a quick three-point retreat, Yiyang not only hit a three-point shot, but also made a foul on Brown and scored four points!

After that, Yiyang deceived Brown with a Buddha feint, and then killed the penalty area with one hand. El the Spirit. Horford, he has become another heavyweight background board for Yiyang.

Yiyang is a player who plays with his brain, Jay. Brown is not easy to lose position, and it is very difficult to shoot or break through on his head. But Brown has a very fatal flaw, which is that he is a little too aggressive.

As long as you make a suspicious shot, Jalen. Brown wouldn't hesitate to jump up and block. To put it bluntly, it's the type that flies at one point.

It's hard to imagine that a defensive titan who can tear both Curry and Durant apart will have such a problem as flying a little, but the fact is that Jalen. Brown is really, really easy to eat.

Stevens should have made a hard and fast rule for Brown not to jump when defending.

Yiyang observed this in the process of fighting Brown and took advantage of it, so he created a wonderful man-to-man dunk. Others are using their bodies to dunk, but Yiyang is using his mind.

The Celtics' vaunted defense began to crumble, and Stevens waved his hand, and now there was only the upper bag!

The forward players began to wrap up Yiyang, and Stevens bet that Kuzma and Hayward would not score.

But the harsh reality once again plunged Stevens into despair, Kuzma can not only shoot, he can also burst! Although the lad was a little impatient, the score really went up.

Not to mention Hayward, who made two three-pointers and the Celtics obediently gave up their intention of a two-man package. After Yiyang was caught to death, the two forwards of the Mavericks were really not soft.

If it weren't for the Celtics' awe-inspiring talent and many difficult goals on the offensive end, the point difference might have gone to 20 long ago.

Fortunately, after the rotation time came, the Mavericks' firepower was a little "gentler". But there are Moodier and Rudy. With Guy here, the Mavericks' offense won't be completely stopped.

At halftime, Stevens hurried into the tunnel of players. With 13 points trailing at halftime, this halftime is going to be very busy for him.

"The Dallas Mavericks actually completely suppressed the Celtics, who had won 15 in a row, with a 13-point difference, I don't know if the Celtics could catch it back in the second half! But I know very well, audience friends. This is the ultimate form of the Dallas Mavericks' horror! ”

Kenny. Smith couldn't help but tremble when he saw it, the team that lost the championship last season really became too strong. (https:)
