After the first two games between the Spurs and the Mavericks, the Spurs took a 2-0 lead.

This Texas Civil War was originally thought to be a battle of the dragon, but judging from the first two games, it was almost a one-sided game.

The Mavericks do still have the strength to rise one or two times, but the time they have to rise in the game is too short.

Both games were very bullish in the first quarter and then suddenly shrunk......

In the second game, because of the accident of King Nuo, he did not have the ability to fight against the Spurs in the second half of the first quarter.

Losing two games in a row, and the psychological shadow of the team boss is now very big, it is still a big question whether he can play his strength in the next games.

At least when they returned to Dallas, the Mavericks had a gray face on their faces, how to put it, they were a bunch of defeated dogs......

When the Dallas fans went to greet the team, they saw a group of defeated dogs, and the boss Norte no longer had a sense of vitality.

Moreover, there was not much time left for the Mavericks to do some preparation, because soon the Spurs were aggressively killing Dallas, and although Split was suspended by the team, he still came to Dallas with the team.

In order to win the team, Nuo Tianwang also posted a picture in the social circle before the game and vowed to protect Dallas!

That's right, the flag is an earth-shattering sound, and it makes Dallas fans feel very good, and they are looking forward to the team taking revenge on the Spurs at home.

However, when Split appeared on the Spurs bench in a suit and leather shoes, the majestic King Nuo Tianwang before the game directly withered.

That's right, it's just withered, and Split is already a shadowy existence in Nowitzki's heart! As long as he was looked at by Split, Nowitzki felt weak.

The third game was like that, whenever Nowitzki was ready to burst out, Split would get up from the bench and look at Nowitzki with "affection".

As long as he is looked at by Split like this, King Nuo will immediately make mistakes, and in the third battle, King Nuo Tianwang actually made 10 mistakes in the whole game! This is simply unimaginable!

Naturally, the Mavericks also lost a mess in the third game, but this time it was better, and they held on until the end of the third quarter before being completely defeated by the Spurs in the fourth quarter.

3：0！ Spurs get match point and only need one more win to advance to the second round.

But after the third game, Spurs coach Popovich said this at a press conference:

"Dallas is good, but we prefer to be in San Antonio and enjoy the feeling of being in the second round."

hat？ What do you mean? You still have one game in Dallas, huh? I haven't won yet, and if I win......

The reporters didn't reflect it at first, but after a turn of their minds, it became clear that Popovich wanted to lose one game in Dallas and then end the first round in the Holy City for the fifth.

That's what he said, that's what he did, and the Spurs started in Game 4 as their third team!

And the Spurs only used 7 people to rotate in the whole game, and they played the whole game like a walk.

3:1, the Mavericks successfully pulled back in the fourth game and avoided the crisis of being swept away.

However, for the Mavericks, this game is more like what the Spurs gave them, the main team and the second team basically played, only Green and Dior went up to play with the third bench for a while, and the rest of the people were watching the show.

Because the Spurs are "merciful", they are not the first team to reach the second round, and the Heat in the East simply sent the Bobcats home 4:0, which is the last days of the Bobcats in the NBA, and at the beginning of next season, the Bobcats will not be called the Bobcats, they will be renamed "Hornets", and the history as the Bobcats will end.

It is worth mentioning that Al Jefferson made a big splash in this series, although he did not win for the team, but his ability was recognized by everyone, especially when Kemba Walker was still a little immature, Al Jefferson made a great contribution to the Bobcats, the last "Elvis", he deserved this name.

Let's go back to the Spurs, after the fourth game of the "big release", they returned to the Holy City, because Popovich said in advance that the fourth game would be abandoned, so the Holy City fans have no opinion about the team's fourth loss, as long as the fifth game is won.

If you want to win, you can win, and if you want to lose, this is the domineering of the giant team!

The fifth game was indeed as Popovich said, quite relaxed and pressure-free, the Spurs' main players completely broke out in the first quarter, and the Mavericks were pressed and beaten all over the court except for a 0:2 lead in the opening game, and they didn't have a temper at all.

At 135:95, Game 5 was definitely a massacre, winning by a full 40 points, and the Mavericks really wanted to disappear immediately after the game.

Nowitzki was very lonely and blamed himself, he didn't play well in this series, especially after the strange impact of the second game, he was very depressed, and the Mavericks lost this time, and he had to bear a considerable amount of responsibility.

And the more important reason is that the Mavericks are indeed too old compared to the Spurs, and the overall aging has made them lose the qualification to compete with the top teams in the league.

Some attentive netizens silently counted the number of games, and immediately understood why the Spurs were playing the fifth game.

It's not that they want to advance to the next round at their home stadium, and this is not a championship battle, purely because of the Spurs' punishment of Split's "three-game ban" on the team.

If the Mavericks win the fourth game, then Split's ban will be automatically extended to the next round, and whether it is the Clippers or the Trail Blazers in the next round, they have a large amount of reserves on the inside, and if there is no Split, the Spurs will suffer a big loss in the height and thickness of the inside!

Therefore, if they drag the game to the fifth game, they can not only advance smoothly, but also make Split's suspension number complete so that it will not affect the next round of games, and by the way, it can also give people a psychological pressure of "Spurs can win when they want to win", this kind of win-win-win deal, how could they miss it?

As soon as this kind of post was exposed on the Internet, the onlookers also woke up, oh my God, it turns out that Popovich planned to do so, no wonder he offered to lose a game! Tsk, the old handsome is the old handsome, there are so many ghost ideas!

And when reporters asked Popovich for confirmation of this kind of statement, Popovich naturally denied it, saying that the imagination of the fans is so rich, he himself definitely did not think about it so much, and now his task is to think about how to play the next second round.

You don't think so? It's strange to believe you, so the next thing on the Internet was a ridicule of the old man Bobo, of course, the old man is idle now, and he will actually go online and fight with netizens......

But anyway, the Spurs are also promoted, let's mourn for the Mavericks, and look forward to the Spurs' opponents in the second round!
