I'm an NBA goalie

Chapter 95
April 4th.American Airlines Center.

The Mavericks and Spurs are currently 2 wins and 1 loss.

Today is the 4th game between the two teams.

The Mavericks continued to use the tactics of the previous game and sent Wang Dachun to start the game.

But today's tactics were a little bit of a failure.

In the first quarter of the game, Tony Parker played very tough and hit the inside line continuously. Wang Dachun was fouled twice in a row when he defended.

And Duncan also stepped up his defense, and Nowitzki didn't have a chance to make a shot throughout the game.

Fortunately, the Spurs' perimeter didn't feel good today, and they hit the iron continuously.The Mavericks stabilized the score through Kidd and Terry's consecutive three-pointers.

At the end of the first game, the score between the two sides was 1:29, and the Mavericks took the lead temporarily.

Wang Dachun was affected by a foul in this game and only scored 0 points and 4 rebounds.The biggest contribution was keeping Matt Bonner scoreless and reboundless.

Section 2 game.

Tony Parker's offense was even faster than in the first quarter!Even Wang Dachun, who had defended very carefully, was still called a foul.

Wang Dachun is also a little convinced. Today Tony Parker is spinning around inside like a spinning top. As long as he is a little slower to defend, Tony Parker can pick the basket and score.

Coach Carlisle saw that Wang Dachun had fouled 3 times, so he quickly replaced Wang Dachun and replaced him with Dampier.Wang Dachun is still very useful in the back, he dare not let this guy foul too many times.

After Dampier came on the field, the Mavericks' inside line protection not only began to decline, but also allowed Matt Bonner, who currently has no data, to get an open opportunity.He scored two three-pointers in a row.

The Mavericks' shooting percentage also began to plummet. In the second quarter, they made 2 of 17 shots and free throws, scoring a total of 4 points.

And Wang Dachun's end also greatly increased the Spurs' outside shooting percentage.A total of 26 points were scored.

Tony Parker scored 18 points in a single quarter, and Duncan scored 6 points with only one shot.He drew one foul each from Dampier and Nowitzki.

At the end of the first half, the score of the two sides was 45 to 41, and the Mavericks trailed by 4 points.

After halftime.

Section 3 begins.

Coach Carlisle started the second half and was not in a hurry to replace Wang Dachun.He was afraid that Wang Dachun would not be able to control his foul again.

But after 3 minutes of the game.Wang Dachun had to replace Dampier on the field.

Dampier in just 3 minutes.He was fouled three times by Duncan and now has four fouls.

After Wang Dachun came on the field, the level of defense went up.

But the offensive efficiency of the Mavericks began to decline. Fortunately, Josh Howard finally opened up on the outside. He made 7 of 4 shots and 3 of 3 three-pointers. He also made two consecutive fouls by Duncan and scored 2 points.

With Wang Dachun's continuous defense on the court, the Spurs' shooting percentage also began to drop sharply.

In the third quarter, he made 3 shots and hit 19 goals. He only scored 5 points in the whole quarter.

In the third quarter, the Spurs beat the Spurs 3 to 16.

The score became 71:80.The Mavericks led by 9 points and overtook the score in one fell swoop.

The Mavericks flew back to the home of the Spurs today.

This game is the match point battle for the Mavericks and the life and death battle for the Spurs.

From the sound of cheering from the Spurs fans at the scene, we can see the criticality of this game.

The Mavericks transferred Wang Dachun back to the bench today, allowing Dampier to return to the starting position.

The purpose is to let Dampier entangle Duncan during the offense and create offensive space for Nowitzki. In the last game, Nowitzki's offensive space was basically compressed by Duncan, and he had few chances to shoot.

Game start.

From the beginning of the first quarter, the two teams bit the score very tightly. The two sides did not make any personnel adjustments until the end of the first half.

Although Dampier's defensive effect on the field was not ideal, it also played a very good role as a meat shield. Nowitzki hit 10 goals in 5 shots in the first half.

At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 52:48.The Mavericks temporarily lead.

At the beginning of the second half, coach Carlisle sent Wang Dachun to play.

Wang Dachun went to the inside to defend Duncan, and at the same time restricted Tony Parker's scoring inside.

Both Duncan and Parker's offenses today are somewhat desperate. The offense is extremely firm. It may be the last game, and they also want to fight again.

In the first half, Dampier couldn't defend Duncan at all.Duncan took a total of 10 shots in the first half, but hit an astonishing 9 times and scored 19 points.Also made a foul on Nowitzki who was helping to defend.

After Wang Dachun came on the field, the effect of defending Duncan was slightly better than that of Dampier. Until the end of the game, Duncan made 11 shots and hit 5 goals.Although Wang Dachun made two fouls, he made 4 of 1 free throws and only scored 11 points.

The Mavericks won the game, and the final score was 106:93.
