Healing Basketball

Chapter 303 303. The Time Has Come
Nowitzki feels that his technology is useless!

He doesn't need to use complicated techniques to get a shot, but he won't have a better shot if he uses complicated techniques.

Dampier was standing on the edge of the three-second zone, and the opposite high school student had a fast wingspan. Nowitzki didn't consider breaking through, he chose to step back and shoot!

His skills are better than [-]% of the league's shooting guards. He used step-back shots, and the outsiders couldn't interfere at all from the technical level.

However, Nowitzki grabbed the ball, stopped the ball, and the extrajudicial fanatic immediately pressed up. Nowitzki took off, and the extrajudicial fanatic took off with a slow beat, but the second serve came first!Cover Nowitzki's shot point!

Nowitzki was already prepared. This time, he was ready to fall back in advance, avoiding the block, and the angle of the shot was very positive, but the force in his hand was a little lighter.

short!

Randolph held Dampier, Liu Xiu grabbed the defensive rebound and counterattacked!
The outlaws and Raheem followed up on both wings, and the players of the Mavericks who retreated did not dare to shrink collectively.

Liu Xiu squeezed Daniels into the basket, counterattacked and made a layup!
22 to 15, the Blazers lead by 7 points!
Offensive and defensive conversion.

Daniels received the serve and pushed forward, rubbing his waist that was sore from being pushed just now.

So fierce!

But unlike Francis and Baron Davis, who are explosive and fierce point guards, their explosive power can be carried hard. After the first pass, the opponent's strength will become smaller and smaller.

Liu Xiu is pure brute force, even if he rushes up, he can't hold back!
As an undrafted pick, after his rookie season, he got a full mid-level salary of $6 million for 3800 years. Daniels' ability to defend from 1 to 3 and have an excellent level of defense is what Cuban appreciates the most.

But Daniels didn't know how to deal with Liu Xiu.

Pushing forward to the frontcourt, Daniels signaled Nowitzki to pull away, and he came to singles!
Facing Liu Xiu's defense, Daniels broke through quickly!

Daniels made a sharp breakthrough, and Liu Xiu defended steadily and solidly. Although Daniels' breakthrough was not blocked, but the place to fight was given. Daniels came to a close-range throw... The ball was a little short, bounced and fell into the basket frame.

The goal is a goal, but Daniels really doesn't like to deal with Liu Xiu, a player with a steady style of play.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Trail Blazers' offense, Dallas double ugly + Stackhouse, outside singles will not work, and if they play team offense, the Mavericks will be very happy.

Nash's departure is not without benefits. The Mavericks' defense has changed from 3-to-2 to 4-to-1, which is a great improvement.

Naturally, Liu Xiu would not be fooled, so he lobbed the ball to Randolph and continued to play singles and split the ball.

Randolph received the ball from close range on the right side, turned and took a step away, Dampier didn't press it out, Randolph made a mid-range shot...and went in!
24 to 17, the Trail Blazers continued to maintain a 7-point lead!
Cuban on the sidelines screamed, so angry!

Unable to deal with Randolph's onslaught, he introduced Ratliff and found that Nowitzki + Ratliff's defensive rebound protection was not enough. He bought Dampier back with a lot of money, and Ratliff and Dampier both had physical strength. It's only enough to play more than 20 minutes, but it's also complementary.

When Nowitzki and Dampier are on the court at the same time, their low post protection ability is very strong, and their defensive rebounding is also excellent.

What a summer!In just one summer, this butcher, who was out of shape, actually practiced a steady catch and mid-range shot!

Randolph still has a lot of shortcomings in the use of the mid-range shot. Now he only uses the mid-range shot to launch face-up singles from the mid-range.

Cuban screamed anxiously, and the Mavericks players on the field knew the situation was serious.

If you can't prevent it, you have to increase the output on the offensive end.

Dirk Nowitzki is not easy to play in singles, but he is also very good at stretching. He is definitely one of the best outside containment points in the league.

However, Daniels, Stackhouse, and Josh Howard met the defense of Liu Xiu, Lynch Hunter, and Raheem. Although they can play, their singles efficiency is not high!
Conversely, Randolph pulled Dampier out of close range to start singles, and the Mavericks could only shrink and watch Dampier one-on-one against Randolph, a flexible fat man.

Playing against the Mavericks, Randolph was very active and hardworking. Tonight's singles performance seemed to shake off a few extra kilograms of meat, and he was in exceptionally good condition.

At 10 minutes and 55 seconds into the first quarter of the game, the outsider received the ball from the left side of the free throw line, leaped high, ignored Stackhouse who was jumping towards him, and made a mid-range shot...and scored!
In the face of Stackhouse's flying defense, the extrajudicial fanatic's shooting hand did not fluctuate at all, because he firmly believed that he took off completely and no one could catch him!
The score was 31 to 22, and the Trail Blazers led by 9 points!
Worthy of being Popovich's first teacher in the NBA, Old Nelson called a timeout with 1 minute left!
……

Bzdelik confirmed that the extrajudicial fanatics do not have the talent to become defenders of the type of Garnett, Kirilenko, and Ben Wallace. not on.

The awareness of cutting into the frame is also average, and the awareness of rushing is not good.

In these aspects, it is not as good as Miles, who they did not keep.

But single defense talent, shooting talent, extrajudicial fanatics are far stronger than Myers, and single defense talent is stronger than Myers' assist defense talent, and shooting talent is stronger than Myers' attack talent.

Bzdelik communicated with the coaching staff about this matter during the game.

The chief assistant is a bit reluctant to bear the physical condition of the outlaw fanatic.

But Bzdelik feels that all-round defensive geniuses are always rare, and they cannot be cultivated just because their physical fitness looks like that, but according to the actual situation.

Maurice Cheeks felt that professional matters should be left to professional people, and he approved of Bzdelik's proposal.

The Mavericks called a timeout at this time, and the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers were very surprised, but they only had a few words to discuss the outlaw lunatics.

The goals they want to achieve and how to adjust them in the previous 4 minutes have already been prepared.

Now, the time they have been waiting for has arrived!

……

The Mavericks sent a combination of Jason Terry, Stackhouse, Finley, Nowitzki, and Ratliff.

The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Little Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Ruben Patterson, Outlaws, and Kwame Brown.

After a timeout, the Mavericks attacked, and Terry couldn't hold back for a long time. After receiving the ball, he faced Little Flying Squirrel and started the singles mode!
No one else could understand why Terry made a fancy cross-step breakthrough against the Flying Mouse defense. Let alone whether these actions can improve his shooting chances, anyway, it must have increased his risk of being intercepted.

but!

Terry couldn't get rid of the long two-point hollow hit that the defense took off against the flying mouse!
The long-suppressed atmosphere in the American Airlines Center was immediately detonated! 24 to 31, with a difference of 7 points.

The Trail Blazers are attacking, and the little flying mouse wants the ball, and he wants to return it.

Liu Xiu passed the ball to Flying Squirrel and then ran to the bottom line on the right, slipped the bottom line around the pile, and turned on the auxiliary control mode.

Nowitzki protected the frame and Ratliff assisted in the defense, allowing Nowitzki to reduce the consumption of expanding defense. Without Randolph, Ratliff can expand the defensive area to a position close to the free throw line.

It's just that the guard is a bit poor. When the little flying mouse made a single shot, Nowitzki and Ratliff were playing with their fate... It was a waste of effort, and the little flying mouse responded to Terry with a goal!
And it's a three-pointer!Little Flying Squirrel made a three-pointer with a retreat step!

34 to 24, the point difference widened to 10 points!
Only 11 seconds left, the last attack in the first quarter!
Terry received the serve and advanced quickly, and went to the frontcourt to start a singles mode, which attracted the defense. Nowitzki was stuck close by the outlaws, but also attracted additional defensive attention.

Nowitzki + Terry, just as Cuban said after giving up the Nash trade to get Terry in the summer, the Mavericks have the strongest firepower in the league inside and outside the line!
Being flanked by Ruben Patterson and Liu Xiu, Terry, who gave the impression of being stunned, passed!

Finley followed up and caught the ball on the left, and made a three-point shot...hit!
Before the Trail Blazers sent the ball out, the long whistle sounded, 27 to 34, and the Mavericks narrowed the point difference to 7 points and entered the intermission!
……

13 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in a single quarter!

Liu Xiu was irritable in the first quarter.

Thanks to the increase in the CIC to 82, and the talent bonus of the Jets.

The game entered a confrontational situation. After the intermission, the two teams continued to deploy offensive lineups.

The Mavericks sent a combination of Devin Harris, Terry, Finley, Nowitzki, and Ratliff to continue to strengthen their offense.

The Trail Blazers sent a combination of Little Flying Squirrel, Liu Xiu, Raheem, Outlaw Fanatics, and Kwame Brown.

Role players have no human rights, so Randolph can rest more. Raheem took a total of four to five minutes of rest including the intermission, and had to play again.

But he himself was more than happy.

Can help the team win!

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Mavericks took the lead.

Nowitzki runs to catch the ball and shoots. Facing the interference of the outlaws, he turns around and hits a jumper with his body crooked!
An offensive super giant is an offensive super giant, even if it encounters such a hard pure interference, it is still possible to make a shot.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, the ball came to the hands of the outlaws again, this time it was iron.

Looking back, Terry singled from the outside, stepped back and made a high-arc three-pointer with a large step back...Miss!
The failure to make it also shocked the Trail Blazers.

Liu Xiu grabbed the rebound and advanced to the frontcourt, making a direct breakthrough. Terry was able to keep up and gave a confrontation, but the impact was not great.

Liu Xiu hit a jumper with an emergency stop on the right side of the free throw line!

Looking back, the rookie Harris quickly broke through the little flying mouse, Liu Xiu pinched it up, Harris scored the ball, Terry caught the ball and made a three-pointer... and scored!
32 to 36, the Mavericks narrowed the point difference to 4 points!
On the court, the singles vs. bombing mode is fully developed.

With Terry, Finley, and Nowitzki on the court at the same time, plus Harris, the speed genius who has an explosive counter-attack talent, the Mavericks have returned to the best offensive solution.

The Trail Blazers are in danger of being chased and evened out in two or three possessions.

The attitudes of the coaching staff of the two teams are completely different. However, it is the coaching staff of the Mavericks who look even less relaxed!
