Chapter 631: Battle First and Third
Tu Yang Di relied on his frontal breakthrough to knock Nowitzki off the court, Novitzki is still a big killer who can shoot inside and outside on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, Yang Di is obviously a little powerless to defend.
The Mavericks have the best record this season, relying on joint defense on the defensive end, and relying on the help of many scoring players on the offensive end, especially the misplaced offense after blocking and dismantling, which is simply one of the most inexplicable tactics in the league.
In terms of such a tactical approach, the Mavericks played against many strong teams and relied more on Nowitzki's play.
Nowitzki came off the court, and the Mavericks felt as if they had lost their backbone, and although they were still able to play good offensive tactics, they lacked the finisher who made the last attack.
At the beginning of the season, the Mavericks lost four in a row, and then the Mavericks won one after another, and the winning percentage in the first half of the season was even comparable to the 72-10 Bulls 10 years ago.
Nowitzki can basically blow up any player who defends him, and Yang Di, a strong interior line in the new era who can run, jump and resist, will inevitably be shot in front of Nowitzki.
Montgomery seems to have found a bit of a way to deal with the Mavericks and is more reliant on a knife-type player like Monta Ellis.
Diop and Dampier, such high-to-large tonnage players, are a sharp weapon against players like Shaquille O'Neal and Yao Ming who are good at attacking in the low post. The Mavericks' ability to shrink the basket and protect rebounds is also particularly strong, and Yang Di has no choice but to rush into the restricted area to fight with them.
The breakthrough of Terry and Harris struggled to support the score for the Mavericks.
This kind of game situation is not expected by a group of experts in the league, and the Warriors had the upper hand in the matchup with the Mavericks last season.
This may have had an impact on the Warriors after Byron Davis' injury, but the Warriors also welcomed a super shooter Ray Allen, who averaged 25+ per game.
Avery Johnson has always felt that the Warriors' style of play is a bit restrained to the Mavericks, and this season, with the Mavericks in such good form, the players still have a little bit of a sense of letting go in today's game.
The offensive end is always inferior to the Warriors.
Nowitzki had four fouls and could only reduce playing time in the fourth quarter, and Youngdy came on early and scored back-to-back points to build an eight-point lead for the Warriors.
Dallas fans are even more upset when they see the Warriors, and they hate Yang Di even more, and if the Mavericks lose this game, they will be close to breaking the Bulls' 72-10 record this season.
"Huh!"
Yang Di hit a free throw from the free throw line, and his personal score broke through to 30 points.
On the field, Yang Di quickly retreated, and called his teammates to change the defense to settle down, over the past few seasons, Yang Di's leadership temperament has become more and more prominent, and he is also handy at commanding others on the court, and everyone is willing to listen to his dispatch and follow him to win one victory after another.
This season, Yang Di is also an MVP-level statistic, and the Warriors' record is also in line with his qualifications, but unfortunately, he met the more unreasonable Mavericks. If the Mavericks maintain this record until the end of the season, Nowitzki should be able to claim the MVP, no doubt. Zhang Weiping felt a little sorry for Yang Di, Yang Di should be able to be the MVP of the village, but the world is impermanent, and no one expected the Mavericks to be so fierce.
"And the Suns, these two teams have a series of wins, if the Warriors Byron is also there, I think the Warriors' record this season can still catch up with them, and even I think they can surpass them, Byron Davis is not there, the Warriors have one less output point, and the game has a lot more variables."
Zhang Weiping talked eloquently, anyway, now that Byron Davis is injured, he can assume whatever he wants.
Yang Di turned and hit a jumper.
Yang Di broke through and scored a layup.
Yang Di's breakthrough caused a foul on the defender......
Within two minutes, Yang Di was in control of the situation on the court, and the Warriors led the Mavericks by 12 points at 94-82, with just over four minutes left in the game.
Terry blocked and passed back to Nowitzki, who hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the re-blooded three-pointer kept the Mavericks in suspense.
Yang Di suddenly gave Chandler, Chandler dunked under the basket to cause Dampier to foul for the fifth time, Dampier also faced the embarrassing situation of graduation, although Chandler missed the dunk, but achieved the goal of killing the inside.
At the free throw line, Chandler hit one of two free throws.
When the basketball fell, Nowitzki didn't grab it, and he didn't let go of Yang Di until Josh Howard protected the backcourt rebound.
Up front, Nowitzki blocks for Terry.
Terry broke through to the right with the ball, flipped his wrist, and the referee breathed in his mouth, almost not blowing his wrist directly.
Yang Di, who changed the defense, did not eat Terry's feints, Terry drove Yang Di out, reflexively passed to Nowitzki, and the basketball passed to the kung fu, Yang Di and Fisher changed defenses with a heart.
Nowitzki received the ball, and Yang Di was still in front of him.
Cushioning the ground, Yang Di has one foot in front and one foot in the back.
Nowitzki raised his hand and dotted it in the air, and Yang Di stepped on the ground for the first time without jumping.
"I didn't get it!"
Nowitzki sighed in his heart, after being shot by him for a three-pointer, the second time he faced the same defense, there would always be some changes in his heart, but Yang Di was unmoved, even if he only had 3 fouls on him now, he was not rash at all.
Nowitzki turned around and re-handed the ball out to Devin Harris.
Harris is claimed to be faster than Parker this season, and he slipped through as soon as he received the ball, Ray Allen couldn't catch up, Harris hit the paint field, and Jandy let go of Nowitzki to help defend Harris.
Harris didn't have room to pass it out, and he didn't have the consciousness to do so.
Facing the double bag, he lifted the ball and flew directly to the basket.
Yang Di jumped up with him, and the big palm in the air was waiting for him, and as soon as the ball was shot, he threw it out.
"Smack!"
A slap to fan the ball out of the baseline.
The audience raised their hands and cheered, and the fans in the Bay Area shouted, blushing and thick-necked.
"Slap him to death!"
"the Mavericks!"
"What league is the first, we are the strongest!"
Yang Di stood on the ground, tilted his head to look at the camera, turned around and high-fived Chandler, Ray Allen and others, disrupted an opponent's attack, and boosted morale.
There is still a scoring gap between the two sides, Nowitzki looked up at the big screen, Yang Di has already scored 35 points, this 23-year-old young man, like a tiger out of the gate, unstoppable.
The Mavericks' players are silent, becoming unconfident and hesitant at home court, where they lost last season.
The pale shooting continued, but the widening margin could not be narrowed.
2 minutes.
1 minute.
In the end, the Warriors defeated the Mavericks 101-93 at home, handing the Mavericks their tenth game of the season.
Although they have been winning streaks, but losing to the Warriors, the Mavericks players are still very uncomfortable, and all the players are very frustrated and walk into the players' tunnel and quickly leave the arena.
