Chapter 250: Don't Take Rookies Seriously

Back in Oakland, the Warriors took a good rest. Maybe it was because of the good away game. The Warriors didn’t feel as tired as expected. After all, the joy of victory will alleviate a lot of fatigue. I am a druid to read the full text).

Sitting at home, the Warriors who won three consecutive victories did not give the Bucks a chance. 95:104, they defeated their opponents by 9 points and increased their winning streak to four games.

Yang Shuai's performance in this game is slightly worse than last week's. The performance of 23 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists is indeed not comparable to last week's crazy trend (the latest chapter of the swingman).

Starting from the Bucks, the Warriors have four consecutive home games, and the schedule is not intensive.And there are two very important opponents in the middle, the Mavericks and the Suns.

Both the Mavericks and the Suns belong to the teams that are still working hard for the playoffs, and their situation is almost the same as that of the Warriors. They are also the most direct competitors of the Warriors.There is no doubt that these are two crucial games.

After two days of rest after playing the Bucks, the Warriors ushered in their opponent, the Dallas Mavericks, at Oracle Arena.

Compared with the previous match between the two teams, the Mavericks' starting lineup has changed again, and Josh Howard is injured.The Warriors' starting center Biedrins was injured, but God still took care of the Warriors. The teams that played against them were plagued by injuries, and most of them were starters.

This is also normal. After all, it is now the end of the season, and physical problems and injury problems have begun to invade the team. The main players play more time, and the probability of injury is naturally higher.

The Mavericks' starting center is Eric Dampier, the power forward is still the head star Dirk Nowitzki, the small forward is replaced by Josh Howard with Antoine Wright, the back line, just this season Rick Carlisle, who became the head coach of the Mavericks, used a two-point guard combination, Jason Kidd and Jose Juan Barea.

The Warriors' starting lineup has not changed much from the previous few games. Center Anthony Randolph, power forward Carl Landry, small forward Yang Shuai, shooting guard Stephen Jackson, and point guard Kirk Hinrich.

Anthony Randolph was replaced by Biedrins, but Dampier still did not take advantage of the jump ball. Randolph jumped the ball for the Warriors to take the lead in obtaining the ball.

Hinrich dribbled the ball to the half court and handed the ball to Yang Shuai habitually, but Yang Shuai did not attack by himself, but handed the ball to Stephen Jackson.

The old Kidd was defending Jackson. Jackson had a height advantage. Seeing Jackson stuck Kidd in the middle distance, Yang Shuai gave the ball to his teammate without thinking.There are advantages, of course we should take advantage of them.

Jackson leaned his back against Kidd, and then began to squeeze towards the basket (full text reading of Five Elements).Jackson's back-up isn't great, but it can still be used occasionally, not to mention that he's facing, no, his back-to-back, and his back is against Kidd, who is shorter than him.

Kidd pushed back behind Jackson, but the gap in height, weight and strength still made him retreat towards the back inevitably.Nowitzki approached the two of them, ready to double-team him at any time, when Jackson suddenly turned around and made a jumper to throw the ball.

"Bang!" The ball hit the inside of the basket and fell into the net, making a two-pointer with ease!

"Stephen, just do that guy. I think they will double-team you as long as you make two or three points." Yang Shuai smiled and walked back to the half court with Jackson.

Jackson nodded, he would not give up the opportunity to attack like this.After the Mavericks scored a goal after Barea received a pass from Kidd, the ball returned to the Warriors again.This time, the Warriors rarely played a fast break.After the ball came to halftime, it was handed over to Jackson by Hinrich again.

Squeezing Kidd away from the middle distance, Jackson rushed towards the basket. Outside the three-second zone, Jackson used his height advantage to force a shot above Kidd's head, and the ball fell into the basket again.

For the three consecutive goals, the Warriors handed them over to Jackson, and Jackson did not live up to expectations. He made three of three shots and scored 6 points in the opening two minutes.

The Mavericks attacked and was singled by Jackson consecutively. If it was a young player, he might have been impatient, but Kidd was not affected by the old demon level. Dribbling the ball and looking for offensive opportunities beyond the three-point line, there is no trace of impetuosity at all.

Nowitzki stepped forward to pick and roll, but Kidd broke through and passed the ball to the German chariot, but passed it to Barea, who went straight to the basket, and Hinrich was slipped out by Barea. empty seat.

Barea's speed is very fast, and he seized the opportunity. It is not easy for Hinrich to stop him again.Quickly rushed to the basket, received a pass from Kidd, Barea immediately jumped up and tossed the ball ready for a layup.

"Want to attack, dream!" After Barea jumped up, he realized that the top of his head was dark, and a figure had appeared in front of him.The line of sight was completely blocked at this moment, and the basket could not be seen at all.

"Oops!" Realizing that he was in a bad situation, Barea did not shoot the ball. He had already seen that it was Yang Shuai who was coming, and he was not sure to avoid Yang Shuai's block at all.

Wright also couldn't find him, his line of sight was blocked by Yang Shuai, Barea could only look back at this time, and then threw the ball at Kidd who was running away from Jackson.But Barea obviously forgot that not far from him, there was another Warriors player, Kirk Hinrich.

Hinrich didn't have time to stop Barea's attack, but he is now able to stop the other side's pass.With a body sprint forward, Hinrich directly intercepted Barea's pass, and then accelerated towards the half court.

Hinrich will never get the ball in the backcourt and wait for his teammates to rush to the front like before. Kidd quickly moves towards Hinrich, but his speed is too fast to face Hinrich now. No longer dominant, the Mavericks are the only ones rushing to the forefront.However, the Warriors have one person rushing forward, Carl Landry.

Seeing that Landry had rushed into the three-point line, Hinrich rushed forward and immediately pushed the ball with both hands. The basketball passed over Nowitzki's head and landed accurately in Landry's hands.After nearly a season of training, Hinrich's long pass has improved a lot.

"Carl, go!" The cheers of the Warriors fans sounded in the Oracle Arena. Landry took the pass and ran forward in two strides. He immediately jumped up with the ball high and flew towards the basket.

"Bang!" The basketball was slammed into the hoop, and the scene was completely overwhelmed by cheers at this moment.

4:8, after the opening, the Warriors have made four of four shots. After the Mavericks scored a goal from Nowitzki, they chased the point difference to only 2 points, and the ball returned to the Warriors.The Warriors' offensive mode seems to have returned to the first three offenses, Jackson beat Kidd in the middle distance.

The Mavericks' defense really made adjustments, and when Jackson was about to attack again, he was double-teamed (the latest chapter of the wizard's current style).Barea came to Jackson, and Jackson immediately passed the ball to Hinrich.Although Barea returned to the defense quickly, he was fooled by a feint from Hinrich.

Seeing Hinrich's breakthrough, Kidd started to defend. At this time, the ball returned to Jackson's hands again, and the next moment, it appeared in the hands of Yang Shuai who was outside the three-point line.

Kidd defended Hinrich, Wright defended Jackson, and Yang Shuai was vacated.After receiving a pass from Jackson outside the three-point line, Yang Shuai jumped up without any hesitation and made a shot!

"Shua!" With such a big open space, Yang Shuai would not let it go, and hit a three-pointer with nothing in it!

Carlisle frowned off the court. He didn't expect Jackson to be in such a good state this game, which completely exposed Kidd's disadvantage in the matchup.These attacks were all because of Jackson, but letting Kidd defend Jackson is obviously the best arrangement on the court at this time.

Let Kidd defend Yang Shuai?Yang Shuai doesn't have the ability to back hit, but his breakthrough speed may be quite a bit behind Kidd.It might be better for Terry to replace Barea instead of Wright to defend Yang Shuai, but now the game has just started, and he doesn't want to disrupt his substitution arrangements.

After thinking for a while, Carlisle decided to use the current lineup, but he used gestures to tell the players on the field to adjust their defensive strategy and double-team Jackson. However, the double-teamers were no longer outside players, but inside players. Dampier.Anthony Randolph is the weakest offensive player on the floor right now.

The Warriors attacked again, and Jackson was keenly aware of the difference in the Mavericks' defense when he held the ball. Their double-teams became Kidd and Dampier.

After hesitating for a moment, Jackson handed the ball to Yang Shuai on the outside.After catching the ball with a slight shake, Yang Shuai rushed towards the basket quickly, making a mid-range jump shot, and bang, the ball bounced out of the basket.

Carleton laughed suddenly off the field. This strategy had obviously taken effect. He waved his hand and signaled the players on the field to continue to implement it.

Kidd assisted Wright to hit a two-pointer, the score between the two teams was narrowed again, and the ball returned to the Warriors again.Jackson attacked with the ball in the middle distance. After being double-teamed, Jackson forced his attack and was stopped, and the ball was once again handed over to Yang Shuai on the outside.

After getting the ball, Yang Shuai did not attack directly, but pushed the ball with both hands and threw the ball to the baseline, driving Anthony Randolph to the basket.

Randolph has been waiting here for a long time. He got open after Dampier left on the last ball, but Jackson didn't give him the ball.This time, seeing the ball being passed to the perimeter again, Randolph simply rushed to the basket to grab a rebound.

At this time, the ball fell from the sky and came in front of him. With the ball in his hand, Randolph was overjoyed. There was no one in front of him, except for the basket.

After jumping, Randolph grabbed the ball with his left hand and swung it vigorously, then slammed the ball into the basket, and the windmill dunked!

"Anthony... Randolph!" Hearing the shouts at the scene, Randolph jumped up excitedly after landing.

"Hey, buddy, I'll give you the ball later, put those damn basketballs in the basket, and tell those guys with actions, don't take rookies seriously." Randolph stepped back towards the half court, deliberately Yang Shuai who was waiting for him immediately stepped forward and said.

Randolph nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Yang, give me the ball."

The ball did not attract the attention of the Mavericks. They continued to double-team Jackson, and the ball appeared in the hands of Yang Shuai again.This time, Yang Shuai passed the ball more quickly.

"Yang really passed the ball!" After receiving the pass, Randolph was overjoyed. Seeing Dampier rushing towards the basket at this time, Randolph hummed softly in his heart, "I thought I Just dunk, it's ridiculous!"

Randolph shot the ball with his left hand in the middle distance from the bottom line. Compared with the general inside players, his skills are more comprehensive, and the mid-range shooting is also his scoring method.

"Shua!" The skin was drawn from the fingertips, and then passed through the net, hitting two points.
