Chapter 746: Wonderful Dynasty Team
At the end of the game, Anthony Davis was very unconvinced.
When talking to Qin Yang, Anthony Davis said in a tone of indignation: "Bruce, don't be too happy, when Cousins' injury is healed, I will win it back." ”
Qin Yang shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything.
It's true that Cousins was injured and couldn't play, but if he did, it was useless.
It's not the NBA of a decade ago, when a super interior player almost determined the strength of the team, but now the forward player is king.
Partridges' forward position...... Tony Parker is old, Thaddeus Young is at best an All-Star bench, and the others have little presence.
The Mavericks won, and it was expected.
On the 30th, the Mavericks host the Spurs.
At half-time, Popovich hung his face and was silent.
The gray-haired Popovich did not speak, as if he was thinking about retiring.
The Spurs are now also a combination of inside and outside teams, with LaMarcus Aldridge on the inside and Kawaii Leonard on the outside, but neither of them is top-notch.
Leonard is strong defensively, and it's easy to take advantage of an outside core to lead the team.
In the past, every time Qin Yang encountered the Spurs, he felt that it was difficult to play.
can only use the blocking and dismantling to cover the Spurs, but now that Durant is here, Qin Yang will give Durant if he attracts defense, and Durant will give Qin Yang if he attracts defense.
Playing other teams, the Mavericks like to play tactical coordination.
But playing the Spurs, Qin Yang especially likes singles.
Qin Yang finished playing Durant, and Durant continued after beating Qin Yang.
It's to torture you.
Leonard is incompetent, powerless, has nothing to love in life, and has nothing to mourn in death. After the whole game, Leonard was 5 of 16 and scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals from the free throw line.
The league has begun touting the stars of many teams this season.
Leonard is just one of them.
In this game, Leonard's 13 free throws are proof of this, compared to Qin Yang and Durant's only 14 free throws, which is about the same size as a person.
This season, Qin Yang and Durant's average data per game has dropped significantly, in addition to the decline in the number of shots, the number of free throws has also dropped significantly.
The implications of this are self-evident.
After this game, the Mavericks have played 18 games this season, and won all 18 games, except for a few games, the Mavericks have mostly entered garbage time in the third quarter, and the Mavericks' strength has shocked the league, no matter what attitude was towards the Mavericks before, but now everyone agrees that the Mavericks are strong.
Los Angeles News:
"The Dallas Mavericks are the most competitive team in the NBA with an unprecedented combination of superstars, and this season may really be breaking the Bulls' record of 72 wins in the regular season."
New York News:
"As one of the strongest players in the NBA today, the combination of Durant and Bruce Qin has made the league uncompetitive, and maybe if it goes on, other teams can compete for draft picks to their heart's content."
Chicago Post:
"The Dallas Mavericks are very strong, but it's hard to break the regular season record, because in the long season, it's hard to keep the players in shape and injuries, and there are many Bulls in NBA history that are close to Jordan's team, but in terms of record, no one can come close."
All the sports media recognize the strength of the Mavericks, but at the same time, they don't want the Mavericks to continue to be strong, and they don't think the Mavericks can break the record.
In fact, it's quite simple, it was a pure coincidence that the Bulls were able to set that record in the first place.
In today's parlance, the Bulls used a contract with an annual salary of two or three million to sign Scott Pippen, a historic All-Star small forward with excellent offense and defense, and then the Bulls were able to form a super lineup, and they won three consecutive championships and then three consecutive championships. If it weren't for this accident, Jordan wouldn't have been the god of basketball. You may also have to be crushed by the Pistons' army of bad boys.
History is so magical.
The Mavericks have a similar problem.
Qin Yang's contract was signed in the first two years, which is not very big, Durant also took a salary cut, and the first two inside lines are all rookies, both rookie contracts, which are very cheap.
But next year after next, the situation will be different.
Qin Yang's contract expires next year, and he will inevitably sign a final contract at that time, and after that, Gobert's rookie contract expires, it will also be a huge contract, and the contract of the two plus Durant's contract almost eats up the Mavericks' salary space. Others...... You can only sign a contract with a basic salary.
Fortunately, the Mavericks are not stupid, and next year, Al Jefferson and Nowitzki's contracts will expire one after another, and a part of the salary will be vacated.
Otherwise, it is impossible to save the team lineup.
Even so, the Mavericks, a role player whose contract is about to expire, are unlikely to offer a big contract, and other teams are starting to scramble.
PJ Tucker, Livingston, Corey Brewer, etc., if they want to stay next year, the Mavericks must give at least a mid-level contract, so the salary pressure on the Mavericks is also very high.
It's impossible for the lineup to remain the way it is.
Any NBA team that wants to build a dynasty will inevitably have to call the luxury tax and have a very good value for money contract.
The best way for the Mavericks is to sign some rookies.
For example, Brogdon, five or six million in four years, can be used at a low price for four years, and when the time comes, the contract will be renewed, and if it is not suitable, you can choose someone else.
That's how the Mavericks can continue to be competitive.
At the end of November, the Mavericks' Qin Yang and Durant were not selected as the Player of the Month because neither of them had very good stats, and in a limited time, the two averaged 19.7 and 20.2 points per game, respectively, which is a little worse than other superstars.
This was followed by the start of the December competition.
Starting in December, the Mavericks began to move forward steadily.
Coach Carlisle also began to rotate for the sake of the regular season record. The first rotation is the veteran Dirk and Nowitzki, followed by James Ennis and PJK Tucker, who have played a lot on the outside this season, then Brogdon, Qin Yang and Kevin Durant are in separate rotations.
Hood, Seth Curry and Cory Brewer didn't rotate because they didn't play too little, but instead got a lot of opportunities to play when others were rotating.
Hood had a performance of 22 points and 10 rebounds, while Seth Curry exploded with 28 points and 8 assists, and the excellent performance of the two also made the media exclaim that the Mavericks' bench strength was too strong.
This kind of player, who has played very little time this season, is simply unstoppable.
On December 1, the Mavericks played the Hornets away from home and ran over with a sweep.
On December 3, the Bulls hosted the Bulls. As a result, it went into garbage time after halftime.
On the 5th, the Mavericks hosted the Hornets and won easily again.
On the 7th, the Mavericks host the Kings.
After losing LaMarcus Cousins, the Kings were powerless. Qin Yang scored 41 points and 22 assists in a single game, once again refreshing his own record.
Then the Mavericks beat the Pacers at home to win.
After the game, the media broke the news that Paul George wanted to be traded to the Lakers, otherwise he would not renew his contract. This shocked everyone.
In fact, in the years of the Pacers, Pickle Pepper has played well, and the Pacers have also been good to Paul George.
But Paul George is still leaving.
And the team to go to is the Lakers.
Paul George has always been a fan of the Lakers, and he wants to play for the Lakers, which is very stupid in Qin Yang's opinion. If you like the Lakers, you want to play for the Lakers?
Do most of the league's stars have to die to play for the Bulls?
Because the vast majority of superstars are Jordan fans.
