“WO――HO！！！”

After receiving Iguodala's long pass, he landed after splitting the tomahawk sideways, Chen Mu raised his head to the sky and shouted, and the sound he made was the same as Nowitzki's chant before.

Even the most stupid person can perceive that Chen Mu's move is tantamount to provoking Nowitsky in person.

"Chinese boy, this ability to adjust is too terrifying......!"

Nowitzki was dissatisfied, but he had to be convinced. Although in terms of one-on-one attack, Nowitzki's desire to blow up Chen Mu is as simple as eating and drinking.

But after the successive attacks succeeded, Chen Mu suddenly changed his character, changed his manic psychology of insisting on going head-to-head with Nowitzki, began to calm down, and played a cat-and-mouse game with Nowitzki.

Nowitzki held the ball and shot, and Chen Mu stepped forward to block it, so as to make the opponent feel good.

Nowitzki dribbled to the strong-side baseline, and Iguodala and Iverson quickly stepped up to make a quick tackle before he could make a move.

Nowitzki went to the middle, and Chen Mu had to block it even if he tried his best, even if he paid one or two fouls, he didn't care.

This kind of highly targeted defensive strategy would be a bit surprising if Cheeks came up with it.

After all, the team coached by Cheeks has never been a defensive powerhouse, which is almost well known in NBA circles.

From the current situation, it is not difficult to see that the current situation, on the one hand, is caused by the wonderful tacit understanding caused by the long-term play between the 76ers players, and on the other hand, it is caused by Chen Mu, a rookie player, who took advantage of the defensive habits of his own team's players.

"Obviously a rookie, he hasn't even played many professional games, how can he have such a terrifying ability to adjust?"

Nowitzki felt a little uneasy in his heart, although Chen Mu's defensive skills were lackluster at the moment, he could still blow him up at any time.

But in terms of the talent and qualifications that Chen Mu has already shown, it seems that it is only a matter of time before he becomes a qualified defensive player.

If this rookie is allowed to play for another season or two, what level will his understanding of the game and grasp of the trend of the game develop?

Even Nowitzki did not dare to draw conclusions.

Off the pitch, the game continues.

After consecutive offensive misses, Nowitzki singled out Chen Mu with a basketball for the fourth time, although this time he relied on his strong offensive ability to force a shot. But when he turned around, Chen Mu held the ball outside the three-second zone on the weak side and transferred at high speed, almost leading his teammates to the basket to throw and score.

In the fifth one-on-one matchup, Nowitzki's mentality was already slightly unbalanced, and he was only thinking about completely beating Chen Mu, a rookie, but his shooting posture was not adjusted well, and the basketball took a bath in the basket and came out from the other side.

“RUN！！！”

Chen Mu jumped up, picked up the rebound from the other side with super speed, and then launched an attack with a long pass.

The continuous rapid offense and defense put a lot of pressure on the Mavericks' players. In particular, the five consecutive times in a row barely touched the ball on the offensive end, which made the backcourt players a little slack.

In the face of Harris's defense, Iverson was also full of fighting spirit, taking advantage of Chen Mu's middle block to kill the inside, carrying Dampier hard, and using an unbelievable action to change hands to score a layup, which also caused Dampier's foul.

With this free throw, the game situation in the second half of the third quarter was instantly in the hands of the 76ers.

In the next game, the Mavericks adjusted their tactics and no longer handed the ball to Nowitzki alone, but started on the weak side.

Howard and Terry took turns attacking and played a few wonderful combinations, but because they didn't shoot for too long, their hands were a little cold, and only one of the four attacks was played, and the other three turned into Chen Mu's rebounds.

The 76ers stabilized the rhythm, and Iverson, who seemed to never run, continued to intersperse with runs, found good opportunities outside the weak-side three-point line, and scored three points into the net after receiving Chen Mu's unpredictable pass, and the score was forced to close again.

When the whistle blew at the end of the third quarter, the 76ers had already chased the score to 66-72, and the two sides were only 6 points apart!

"Stay aggressive, keep your fighting spirit! In this game, we still have a chance! ”

At the break, Cheeks also rekindled the hope of victory in his heart and loudly poured "chicken soup for the soul" into the players.

"In the first half of the fourth quarter, Luiz, you have to strengthen the break, they have a big problem defending inside, and Dampier doesn't dare to do too much defensive moves. If we can make a few more kills, we will be able to take the initiative on the inside in this game! ”

Cheeks drew a strategy on the board, setting up several consecutive pick-and-roll screens in a row, and then attacking the basket from the outside.

"Hunter, when you go up to the top for a while, the most important thing to chase points is to defend. Dirk played the whole third quarter, and their main team basically didn't rest, and the first half of the fourth quarter was our best chance. Even if they can't beat the score, make sure they don't let their bench players score easily, especially under the basket! ”

Hunter nodded, turned around and looked at Chen Mu, without saying much, both of them knew very well what their role in the team was.

Chen Mu is a rebounding reaper, a full-court fast-break finisher and initiator, a half-court shooting containment point, and a waist offensive commander, and almost all of the roles he can play are on the offensive end.

And Hunter is Chen Mu's negative set, there is no killer on the offensive end, but the defense is tenacious and the frame protection ability is good, as long as he is present, the opponent's outside breakthrough lethality will drop a notch.

This combination of offense and defense, although it is not very common on the court at the same time, is the most important link for the current 76ers.

The fourth quarter of the game started quickly, and both sides sent substitute players, and even pseudo-substitutes like Chen Mu were pressed to the bench, recovering their strength and preparing for the final battle.

The 76ers, who are regarded by countless people as a weak team, actually have a chance to defeat the mighty Mavericks on the road, and it is a big comeback after falling behind by more than a dozen points at the beginning. I'm afraid that if you say it before the game, no one will believe it.

The offensive firepower of the Mavericks' bench is still very strong, but the 76ers have clear tactics and are very resolute in their interior killing.

74-80, still a 6-point gap, in the fourth quarter of the game, there are less than 7 minutes left.

After the dead ball, the coaches of both sides sent the strongest lineups, and Johnson knew that the strategy of using Dirk to play center had been cracked by the 76ers, to be precise, by Chen Mu. At this time, if you make a surprise move, the effect will not be too good.

And Iverson has gradually mastered the rhythm, become familiar with Harris's defensive habits, and begin to regain his touch. So Johnson simply sent a full set of starters, put on a winning posture, and wanted to compete with the 76ers.

"Chen, do you see that?"

When he came on the field, Iverson, who was very satisfied with Chen Mu's transformation, stretched out his hand and patted Chen Mu's shoulder, pointed to the Maverick forbidden area and said, "They are on Dampier again, what should they do, do you still need me to say?" ”

"No, I don't."

In Chen Mu's eyes, the murderous aura was fully displayed, and the anger accumulated by Novitsky for countless rounds could not find a place to vent, and now it was all concentrated on the opposite Dampier.

"I'm going to blow him up......!"

The game is back.

The 76ers took the lead in attacking, familiar with the running position, Chen Mu waited quietly on the weak side, and after making a block for Iverson, who was pulling the vacancy, he turned his back to the basket and opened his hands to receive the ball.

Iverson came to the top of the arc, the ball on the strong side just came, and in front of him was Daniels' marking, Iverson did not hesitate and passed the ball directly to Chen Mu.

"Erik, fight for it......!"

On the side of the court, a middle-aged fat man wearing a blue calf fan shirt clenched his hands into fists, the expression on his face was very nervous, and he couldn't stop cheering for the home team.

Mark Cuban, the owner of the Mavericks and one of the league's favorite basketball owners, is almost using his real assets to play the real basketball manager game that all fans dream of.

"If you see who is good, you will make an offer, anyway, Lao Tzu is not bad for money", is the creed of this fanatical boss with a mixed reputation.

And in this game, Cuban seems to see his next target to pursue.

"Huh"

After receiving the ball, Chen Mu pretended to force a breakthrough, causing Dampier to retreat half a step, and then hit the middle shot.

When he returned to the defense, Chen Mu's eyes were full of murderous energy, and he glanced at the whole field, with a momentum that made the fans in the American Airlines Center Arena a little frightened.

Is this guy really a rookie......?

On the offensive end, the Mavericks reverted to an infinite one-on-one strategy, with Terry and Howard on the strong side taking turns to break through, and then passing the ball out, Daniels and Nowitzki tried to shoot from a distance, but neither could hit.

"Fight back!"

Grabbing the rebound, Chen Mu shouted to hand over the ball, and then rushed to the frontcourt. Behind him, Dampier chased after him, but he was never able to catch up.

Receiving the ball near the free throw line, Chen Mu's footsteps stopped, and Dampier behind him hurriedly turned around and stepped forward, trying to stop Chen Mu from shooting, but when he came to Chen Mu, the basketball had long since disappeared.

“NicePass！”

Outside the three-point line, Korver, who had not been able to score for a long time and was very depressed throughout the game, finally seized the opportunity and hit a three-point shot, leaving only 1 point behind!

“M**S！ M**S！ M**S！ M**S！ ”

Led by the DJ, the fans in the stadium woke up from a dream and suddenly realized that the team might be overturned, and hurriedly began to cheer for the home team.

However, the momentum of the game has been completely controlled by the 76ers.

The two sides have come and gone, and the 76ers' hand has declined slightly, but the strategy of attacking the interior is still clear. Except for Chen Mu, who has a small "privilege" to distribute the ball to the outside according to the situation, almost every ball of the rest of the players is rushed to the basket.

Under the repeated impacts, Dampier's defense completely collapsed, and Novis was basically not good at helping defense, and he controlled Webb well one-on-one. However, the basket was lost, and Iverson and Iguodala hit key shots in succession, allowing the 76ers to overtake the score again since the second quarter.

95 to 93, sure enough, there is still a chance!

The 76ers are united, and with less than 1 minute left in the game, as long as they hold on to this offense, the 76ers have a good chance of winning!

However, just when the 76ers gritted their teeth and defended and wanted to give the league's mighty Mavericks a little color, the German tank fired again.

"Huh"

One step outside the three-point line, without warning, he pulled out his shot, and the ultra-high "No-style arc", the basketball fell into the basket like a bomb.

Dek Nowitzki, habitually, reached out and pulled the upper corner of the jersey, and returned to the defense with a domineering face.

After 48 seconds, the game would be over, 95-96, and the Mavericks had a ...... lead at home again!
