Chapter 538: It's Not False at All
By the end of the first quarter, Calderon had come on, and things had changed.
After Calderon came out, the Grizzlies began to shrink and defend on the inside.
Calderon's three-point shooting ability is average, and his offensive ability with the ball is also average, usually making strategic passes, or tactical blocking and pick-and-roll coordination.
To put it simply, it is a conventional weapon, which is less than the top and more than the bottom.
Calderón plays. The situation has changed again.
On the offensive end, the Mavericks lacked a big output and containment point, and the Grizzlies' defense at other positions suddenly tightened.
Conley defends Calderon alone, and there is a surplus, and even Conley can help defend others at any time.
Calderon was beaten by Conley and was powerless.
McConley is almost the standard point guard, and when facing Qin Yang, Conley can't show the demeanor of a super point guard at all, but when he meets Calderon, it's completely different.
McConley played even better than Paul.
On the offensive end, after Conley opened up, the Grizzlies completely opened up.
Al Jefferson and Gobert began to show their flaws at this time, and Jefferson's defensive awareness was obviously poor and slow.
Once the defense was not in place, the Grizzlies scored easily.
By the second time, Jefferson's defensive attitude was even worse, and the Grizzlies scored more easily. It's a vicious circle.
Goebel was a little worse.
Encountering Marc Gasol's desire to be beaten, Gobert is too light and lacks strength, Marc Gasol has been in the NBA for many years, and his strength is super strong, and when he meets Gobert, he knows how to play to his advantages and directly use his strength advantage to fight.
Grabbing rebounds, Gobert is no match at all.
It's a complete abuse.
When he started, Qin Yang was there, and the team could still maintain a slight lead, but in the second quarter, the score difference was quickly opened.
There's no way around it.
Calderon tried hard to change and lead his teammates, but he couldn't.
Nowitzki singles in the second quarter, the feel was average, and his performance was not good.
At halftime, the Mavericks trailed by 12 points.
This difference made Qin Yang scratch his head.
During the break, in the locker room, Qin Yang stopped Gobert and Al Jefferson.
'Al, you can not defend well, but at all times, remember to defend and in the first half you didn't defend well a couple of times.
"Rudy, don't use your strength to defend Mark, that's not your advantage, and remember to exercise more strength on a regular basis."
Qin Yang gave advice to his teammates.
Both Al Jefferson and Rudy Gobert looked a little ugly.
The first quarter was still leading, and the second quarter was directly blown out, which was embarrassing.
The team is behind, but the atmosphere is not that bad.
Thackeray did a very good job of towels on his side, cheering on his teammates, handing out drinks, and so on, and he was a naturally optimistic person.
With this kind of player, a lot of things are easy for the team to handle.
Rick Carlisle is an academy coach, and at this time, Coach Carlisle did not blame the players, but quietly laid out the tactics.
The Grizzlies' roster is flawed and actually not difficult to play.
The third quarter begins.
Qin Yang began to increase his shots.
The first ball, Qin Yang and Nowitzki covered. After the screen, Nowitzki cut directly to the basket, and the Grizzlies players were a little confused for a moment.
Qin Yang pretended to pass the ball to attract attention, and then shot a three-point shot instantly.
Fake fax shots.
Sou!
Three-point shot.
The Grizzlies attacked, Tony Allen shot in the open space, popped out of the frame, Nowitzki grabbed the rebound, Qin Yang dribbled across the half court and gave the ball directly to Nowitzki.
Qin Yang ran by himself, and the Grizzlies' defensive formation was instantly chaotic.
Nowitzki singled, passed to Marion, who was vacant and hit directly.
In this ball, Qin Yang did not participate in it at all except for running, but Qin Yang helped this attack a lot.
Because Qin Yang's running position completely disrupted the Grizzlies' defense.
In the third quarter, it entered the rhythm time of Qinyang.
The bench and the main force on the court are intertwined, and the Grizzlies do not cooperate tacitly. It's easy to give up your chances.
Qin Yang had 8 points and 4 assists, and the Mavericks stopped the Grizzlies twice in a row and completed the reversal in the third quarter, and the Grizzlies were helpless.
In the fourth quarter, it was almost time for the two teams to fight offensively.
The Mavericks are obviously not opponents on the inside, the black and white bears can always find opportunities, Al Jefferson's height disadvantage is undoubtedly reflected at this time, the black and white bears find opportunities, and they dare to shoot at mid-range, and the shooting rate is not low.
However, Nowitzki and Qin Yang are on the outside line, and they will not be false at all.
By the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, Nowitzki was on the inside. The Mavericks instantly turned into fast-break mode, taking away the opponent in waves.
Another flaw of the Grizzlies is that they are afraid of being penetrated by the fast break.
The Black and White Bears are too slow, and once they break fast, the Grizzlies' defense will be beaten to pieces.
123-114, the Mavericks won the game at home.
At the end of the game, there was no talk of Al Jefferson and Zach Randolph.
Both of them are role players, they don't have much ball, and the score is only a dozen points, and there is no point in talking about it, it is Qin Yang and McConley who decide the outcome of the game, not others.
After this game, the team finally had a rest day.
After three days of rest, on November 5, the Mavericks played the Lakers on the road.
The Lakers have been the saddest team these seasons, and there is no one.
Since Kobe, Gasol and others joined forces to win the championship, the Lakers have fallen into a low ebb, meeting Howard and Qin Yang at their peak, the Mavericks at their peak, the Kings, and the Nuggets...... Anyway, the Lakers can win the championship with a lineup, but it has been a tragedy.
This season, the tragedy continues.
After driving O'Neal away, Bryant managed to kick Howard out.
Now that the Lakers lineup, Kobe Bryant doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
Because...... Bryant was injured.
Many fans complained about Kobe's tumor, Kobe Bryant's scrapping of teammates, and Kobe's iron, well, these are all truths.
But tragedy struck when Bryant wasn't there.
No one on the Lakers can take on the big job.
In this game, the Lakers lined up a two-guard lineup, with Nash and Stephen Blake starting, and everyone else was weak except for Pau Gasol.
This lineup...... It's so good to fight.
Qin Yang was a little overwhelmed.
You can score no matter how you play, and you have a chance to pass no matter how you pass. This feeling made Qin Yang very uncomfortable, and in this case, Qin Yang's choice was...... You guys play.
The first quarter lasted six minutes.
The Mavericks took the lead, Qin Yang took the initiative to call a timeout, and Seth Curry got the opportunity to play.
Also in the field were Gobert and Thackeray.
No way, this lineup is too easy to play.
Qin Yang went up to brush a 50+ and 20+ assists? Does it make any sense? It doesn't make sense.
After Howard's departure, the whole league was not optimistic that the Lakers could win the championship.
