NBA villain

Chapter 467
The Mavericks defeated the Warriors 115 to 103 and tied the Western Conference Finals 1-1.

After the Mavericks changed the inside lineup, it really had a certain effect. Although Yang Di scored 37 points, Van Horn and Nowitzki scored 48 points together, which equals to offset the damage he caused inside. .

At the same time, the Mavericks opened up space perfectly, creating conditions for the breakthroughs of sharp-knife German Harris and Jason Terry.

Yang Di was also forced to pull away from the penalty area, and the deterrence on the defensive end dropped significantly.

The fans of the Mavericks let out a sigh of relief, and finally won the Warriors. If they lose to the Warriors again, the Mavericks don't have to fight. After all, they can't meet the Rockets every time.

The two sides went to the home court of the Warriors, and Oakland played a G3 game.

Yang Di and others haven't realized the gap between the two teams, thinking about how to beat the Mavericks at home.

As a result, in the first home game back in Oakland, the Warriors lost to the Mavericks 89 to 105 and experienced a fiasco.

The Mavericks completed an excellent offense. Yang Di's hand feeling declined, and he missed many mid-range shots. Although he scored 28 points, he took 25 shots, which was not very efficient.

Yang Di was very disappointed, 1 to 2 behind, not only because the Warriors were much weaker than the Mavericks, but because the overall thinking of the players was a bit lax. There are too many wrong signals from the Warriors players. This is the Western Conference Finals, the top game, and if you lose one game, you may be doomed!

A team that can reach this level will definitely not be a weak team, so how can they relax their nerves?
"The next game must be won, otherwise the hard work of a season will be ruined." Montgomery issued a military order in the locker room, and whoever can play will play. There are no privileges and no rules.

The players stood in awe, finally understanding the urgency of the game.

After a day off, the Warriors played against the Mavericks at home.

In the G4 game, Montgomery finally made a lineup change.

Montgomery put Monta Ellis in the starting lineup for the slightly slower Fisher, who is the fastest player on the Warriors right now, and was paired with the equally thin, but incredibly fast Jason Terry , can also be regarded as a targeted arrangement.

Monta Ellis has only one task, which is to lock Terry and restrain his performance.

This change really worked. Terry was used to Fisher's slow but powerful defense. This time he was not so aggressive against him. Monta Ellis, who was always able to stick to him, played obviously not as good as in the previous two games. .

Yang Di's offense broke out, and he made Van Horn 2 fouls in less than half a quarter. The Mavericks' inside combination that worked in these two games will drop one in an instant.

In the first quarter, the Warriors led the Mavericks by 33 points 25 to 8.

After the start of the second quarter, Yang Di went off to take a rest, staggering Baron Davis to play at this time, leading the substitute to play in the second quarter. The Warriors always took the initiative and did not allow the Mavericks to narrow the gap.

After the third quarter, the Mavericks launched a counterattack.

The counterattack was led by Nowitzki. First he hit a 3-pointer, then Terry made a layup, and Nowitzki made a low shot. The Mavericks narrowed the point difference to only 1 point.

At the critical moment, Yang Di stood up and scored, knocked away Van Horn and made a forced shot from the basket.

Subsequently, Baron Davis hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc, and the Warriors went 5-0 again. number.

At the end of the three quarters, the Warriors led the Mavericks by 79 points 72 to 7.

In the four quarters, Yang Di continued to stay on the court. In the Western Conference Finals, Yang Di played an average of 43 minutes per game. As the team's superstar, it is considered normal.

Montgomery is not going to let Yang Di rest in the second half.

Yang Di also successfully led the Warriors, kept the lead, and defended the home court. Amidst the cheers of the fans all over the sky, they won 104 to 92.

In the East, the Heat, who returned to their home court, went down two games in a row, leading the Pistons 3-1.

After all, the Pistons are weak in offense and strong in defense, but O'Neal and Wade are theoretically the two best defensive weapons in the league. No matter how limited they are, their destructive power cannot be completely limited.

Miami fans rejoiced, the Heat are really going to enter the finals, this day, they waited too long.

On the other hand, Yang Di is more and more eager to hope that he can enter the finals, just because that opponent is his former club, and there are people who once underestimated him.

The Warriors' Mavericks are about to start the battle of Tianwangshan.

Yang Di and the Warriors players flew around and returned to Dallas again.

In China, Yao Ming told Yang Di that he would wait for him to join the national team training.

"Have you finally figured it out?" Yang Di said with a smile.

"It's not all like that, Yao Ming said: "Because I saw that you have to rest until July in the past, if I go to training and not partner with you, then it will be useless after all. "

"That's right, there's no point in going early, as long as you make sure you don't gain weight." Yang Di joked.

"How can I gain weight!" Yao Ming said in embarrassment, "I'm training every day. Even though I'm on vacation, I don't dare to relax at all. After all, you have surpassed me now, and you are almost going to the finals."

"The Mavericks are having a tough time." Yang Di sighed, and said, "The Mavericks are still good at tactical execution. After these few games, all kinds of shots are not easy to defend."

"The key point is that they are still very resilient. They are like the undefeated Texas Xiaoqiang. They always make some key goals at the most critical moments." Yao Ming also felt deeply: "And their running and bombing is based on Novus. Based on the base as the core, there is speed, shooting, and fast rhythm, but it does not give up positional offense and low post."

"Before I played against the Mavericks, I just felt that their style of play was soft. I didn't expect them to be so difficult, and they were not soft at all. They were good at attacking and fighting. Nowitzki is really big-hearted, and his fadeaway jumper is not easy to defend at all. "

"They also think you are difficult to guard. Your scoring ability is better than mine now."

"No, no, your skills are better." Yang Di said modestly with difficulty.

Yao Ming said with a smile: "Skills don't mean scoring ability. Some people have good skills, but they don't have the body, and they can't even enter the NBA. Scoring ability depends on skills, but not absolutely on skills. Skills plus body, good at using their own methods To attack is a real ability."

Afterwards, Yao Ming cheered Yang Di up with a smile: "Come on, entering the finals and winning the championship trophy is just one step away!"

Yang Di smiled and said: "Wait for me, this Tokyo Men's Basketball World Championship will definitely turn him upside down!"
