NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 371

The second half of the game.

Because of the disparity in points, Motta, the head coach, was changed once. Kidd, who had a "task", was not removed, and Curry needed to stabilize the backcourt and was not removed, but the other positions were replaced cleanly.

Backup center Donald Hodge replaced Li Shengli.

The combination of Jones and Smith was also down, and Crotty went to the third position of Jones to take charge of the defense.

The entire third quarter looked like training for the new lineup, and the leading Mavericks did have the qualifications to start training in the third quarter.

As for dropping Li Shengli, this is also reasonable, because there is no need to fight to the end in this game alone. More rotation and rest time will be good for Li Shengli personally, for running the second team lineup, and for training newcomers. On the bench at the festival...Mota finally found a chance to chat with Li Shengli alone.

"Hey, Lee, how do you feel?"

"I don't feel anything!"

Motta made a start, and Li Shengli returned it, but Motta didn't take it very well. He could only say, "Kidd played well today. It seems that he will be an excellent player in the future. Will be your best assistant, and Curry is also very bright, really hope we can play well this season."

Kidd is excellent?

You didn't say that about Kidd in the last defeat.

Li Shengli turned his head and glanced at Mota. He also knew that Mota was an old man in the head coach circle. Although he didn't like the old man's style, he was still the head coach in the end, unless it was an indiscriminate play like last time. Spray randomly, otherwise he is not willing to be a thorn.

"Playing well? That's what we're doing now!"

"That's good. I hope that the unhappiness last time will not become an obstacle between us, and I also hope that we can work together to create the sports history of the city of Dallas!"

Mota's words were more official, and Li Shengli took a look at the white old man in his 60s, and didn't want to make the relationship between the general and the commander too rigid, so he could only hope that this old fool would not do anything excessive in the future.

"Of course, Coach Motta!"

"Okay, that's great, today's game is our best chance to prove ourselves to the whole league!" Motta stared at the situation on the court and said, "You can play in a while, try to draw the score Now, the bigger the better, I will sacrifice the Timberwolves today!"

……

Pull points difference?

The bigger the better?

Want to sacrifice the Timberwolves?

If the media reporters heard this, they would probably have to scold Mota, because everyone knows that Li Shengli's crotch pants were worn by Li Shengli, O'Neill, and Brother Mourning. Why do you have to fight when you are sure you can win the game? What about other people's faces?

Even leaving aside the relationship between Li Shengli and Mourning.

The unspoken rules of the league game also have this saying. In the case of a big advantage and a sure win, unless it is a deadly enemy or a player rushing to the end of the regular season, he still needs to respect the opponent. Usually, he will replace the substitute in the second half of the final quarter, and Today's game... the difference in points was huge, and it was justified, and there was no reason or reason to fight the Timberwolves and Mourning in the face.

Be a man and stay on the line!

Even if there are differences between Eastern and Western cultures, this kind of thing has nothing to do with cultural differences. Li Shengli doesn't know what Mota is thinking, but just tells Mota with a cold face... Keep a low profile!

……

The third quarter of the game.

Mourning was aggrieved and broke out in two quarters. His style of play tended to hit the penalty area and kill at the basket.

It cannot be said that he is the small Li Shengli or the small O'Neal, because Mourning has his own characteristics, and there is no shortage of confrontation, but his confrontation details are more extreme, making fouls is far easier than others, and the Mavericks Donald Hodge and Lorenzo Williams here can't stop it at all.

The Timberwolves have Mourning leading the team, but the Mavericks in the third quarter also have Kidd.

A top point guard can definitely raise the team's overall strength to a higher level. Kidd is not top-notch now, but it is no problem to stabilize the situation.

Although Li Shengli's rotation led to the fall of the penalty area, Crotty's defense was against Ryder, the strongest outside firepower of the Timberwolves. He locked this guy up and called it ineffective, interrupting a leg of the Timberwolves. The stable shooting in the game, Kidd's precise passing... The Mavericks in the third quarter stabilized the score at 15 points.

8 points behind in a single quarter?

On the one hand, Mourning of the Timberwolves exerted his strength, and on the other hand, Kidd on the Mavericks' side started to grab points!

Originally, the Mavericks should be able to close the 20-point difference, but both Curry and Crotty knew what Li Shengli meant, and they tried their best to cover Kidd's pick-and-roll and let Kidd shoot, and Kidd did the same. Occupying a part of the shot, bumping up the score to 10 points.

Other statistics have already broken doubles. Just after scoring 10 points late, Kidd got a triple-double of 10+10+16 in the second game.

……

As for the fourth quarter.

After playing for a while in the first half, the lead of the substitute Mavericks was reduced to 10 points, and amidst the cheers of the fans, the long-awaited Li Shengli finally appeared on the stage, and started to clean up the mess with four substitutes. The embarrassing thing is...Mourning was still on the court, playing for 40 minutes.

It’s not that Timberwolves head coach Hill-Blair doesn’t change Mourning, it’s that Mourning wants to continue playing, and this makes Hill feel bad. After all, Mourning is the only face of his coach, and no one can support him when he is exhausted. ah!

"The regular season has just started. Damn it, what are you doing so hard? Are you going to play the whole game? Don't be afraid of getting hurt, don't you want to die?" When we meet, this guy is like this, he will not admit defeat.

"I'm different from you and Shaq. I... can't do it if I don't fight!" Mourning was no longer as flamboyant as in the first quarter. If I still can’t get results, I’m ashamed to stay with the Timberwolves.”

Are you stupid or not?

Li Shengli cursed in his heart, but he didn't stop his body movements. He tried to test Mourning, turned his back and made a fake move to shake him away, took off with strides, and scored a goal with a tomahawk smash.

"How can you fight me with your current physical fitness?" Li Shengli, who succeeded in dunking, is not mocking, but Mourning's physical fitness is too embarrassing, and the physical indicators of reaction and speed have all declined, "Take a break, I can't help it Give this game to you to win, but you've done a lot, and the Timberwolves lose, not you."

"Get out!" Mourning was gasping for words, "I said, I'm different from you, I don't want much, I just want to get the honor I should get, and you and Shaq have neither Find a way to understand me, especially you!"

"Li, sometimes I envy you, because you bastard has won too many honors. Why do you not believe in God, but God cares about you so much? Sir, you have Malone and Stockton, to Sir Maverick, you still have Kidd, but what about me, what do I have, I have a fart!"

Mourning became agitated for no reason, and Li Shengli scratched his head, not knowing what to say. As for that sentence...don't believe in God?There are so many gods in my hometown, I haven't even believed them yet, so let's line up, okay?

"Cough... the competition is not over yet! Anyway, you should pay attention to yourself. If you hurt yourself, you will not even be qualified to compete with us. Wait a minute, maybe next season will be your chance. It was me last season, Shaq this season, and you next season, anyway behind closed doors we are all 'dividing the spoils'."

"What kind of spoils? You think the championship is stolen goods? You bastard who is full and hiccups, stop talking nonsense, I won't refund you no matter what!"

"Damn it, you stupid head, if you don't go down, I'll beat you!"

"Come on, I won't lose unless I die here!"

……

It is impossible to release water. This is Li Shengli's greatest respect for Mourning, but Li Shengli unexpectedly hopes... a god can come to save Mourning who is about to be autistic.

In the end, Mourning did not die in Dallas, but the Timberwolves fell to their knees at the home court of the Mavericks. In the last half of the quarter, Li Shengli fired all his firepower, all four substitutes were supporting, and the exhausted Mourning exploded both offensively and defensively. He was pulled off the field by Hill's caller in the last 3 minutes.

Li Shengli did not fall!

He has to prove to everyone that the Timberwolves are vulnerable without Mourning.

In the 3 minutes of Mourning's presence, the Timberwolves narrowed the point difference to less than 10 points for the first time, and Mourning retired. In the last 3 minutes of the game, under the watchful eyes of the fans, no one knew what happened to Li Shengli, and the offense and defense were abnormal. brutal.

Although the first half was also very fierce, it was still within the understandable range. In the last 3 minutes... the Timberwolves were collectively forced on the spot. Li Shengli beat them all by himself, and took a 3-point lead in 10 minutes.

3 minutes, 10 points, if the offense is smooth, there is no problem, but 3 minutes, 10 points lead, this is a big problem, which means that the Timberwolves are full of offense and defense, scoring shortage, and defense is difficult, which shocked the Timberwolves fans... It turns out Even the exhausted Mourning, he is still the only pillar of the Timberwolves.

95: 114!

The Mavericks beat the Timberwolves by 19 points, but Li Shengli did not feel the joy of victory. He only had one thought in his heart... Come and save Mourning!
