Chapter 423 The Second Match Comes

The Mavericks, Hu Lin, and Carlisle still made a lot of attempts, but these efforts were useless. On the one hand, the Mavericks themselves couldn't make a shot, and on the other hand, the Hornets really played crazy at home.

With less than 2 minutes left in the fourth quarter, 94 to 100, the Mavericks were 6 points behind their opponents, so they could only enter the rhythm of foul free throws.

As a result, under the cheers of the home fans, the Mavericks lost Game 100 of the Western Conference semifinals 108-[-].

"Ah! We won!"

"YES! YES! YES!..."

"We really won, I really don't want to get up..."

That's right, the Hornets were really tired, but they really persevered, just with a lot of energy and the cheers of the home fans, they really completed a very difficult task!

Looking at the opponent lying on the ground, looking at the smiling face of his old friend who was dripping with sweat, Lao Hu can be regarded as a man, if he loses, he loses.

"You played beautifully! Congratulations! However, this is only the first match, and I will definitely win the next match!" Undoubtedly, this guy is really the toughest.

"Haha! I won!"

"There are seven games in the playoffs, and this is just the first game."

"I won! Haha!"

"As long as I win the next game, our Mavericks will get back the home court advantage!" Lao Hu's forehead was a little sweaty.

"That's right, but I won! Haha..."

Yep, Lao Hu is so embarrassing, birds of a feather really flock together.

Of course, this was all a joke, and the two hugged each other cheerfully.After that, there is Lao Li, and...

Losing the game was really disturbing, especially for Carlisle, who had prepared exceptionally well before the game. He now had veins throbbing on his forehead, and he was not much worse than a geek in disguise.

But that's it, Carlisle still has to attend the press conference after the game.

"Coach, how do you feel about being reversed in such a good situation?" There are quite a few American reporters who understand football, but this question is too harsh, how can you feel?

"Coach, what do you think of the competition between Chris Paul and Hu Lin?" This reporter is also good enough, directly turning himself into Di Xianggong.

"Coach, for the next game, do your Mavericks have the confidence to win?" This isn't nonsense, but the reporter obviously had a sarcastic tone.

Faced with such a press conference, Carlisle said that he needs that mask very much now, even if he can't become a geek in disguise, whatever he is, it's good to be anything.

"You bastards just wait for me! Tomorrow, I swear, tomorrow will definitely be something you will never forget!..."

Needless to say, how could Carlisle let go of the Mavericks? A mouthful of saliva is not enough, and various threats and intimidations are added to it.

However, at this point, the first game of the Western Conference semifinals is over. In this way, the first game of the Eastern and Western Conference finals is over.

On the previous day, on May 5, the Celtics beat the Pistons at home, 21 to 88, and the Hulk won cleanly.Of course, this score is still very cheating. The current tone of the Eastern Conference is defensive battles.

It seems that this home field advantage is really strong enough, at least the home team won the first game.

But now is not the time to think about these things, Lao Hu has to prepare for tomorrow's training.

The 23rd naturally arrived as scheduled, and Lao Hu, who had a good night's sleep, originally came to the training ground with an uneasy mood, but Carlisle just increased the amount of adaptive training, which was not enough to torment the dead .

There is a lot of thunder and little rain. This is the evaluation of this training. I didn’t feel it at all about the special training in hell, did you?

In fact, there is no way to do this. Although that is what he said, Carlisle is very clear that the reason the Mavericks are stronger than the Hornets is because of physical strength and more players.Then naturally no high-intensity training will be arranged. This is the playoffs, and any regular attrition will be fatal. Who would destroy the Great Wall?

Therefore, it is enough to run a few more suicides, save face for these stars, and make yourself a step down, why not do it?

There was also an NBA game on the 23rd. The Eastern Conference finals reached the second game. The Celtics still played at home, but their opponents, the Pistons, achieved an unexpected victory.

103 to 97, the Pistons won the game with difficulty. This is a very rare game. Not only did they win, but they also won away, with a score of more than 100 points.

This is really rare, at least in the Eastern Conference playoffs, rare.

What's interesting is that this added a layer of pressure to the Mavericks. Yes, the Pistons have won the away game, so did the Mavericks win once?

Of course, this is mainly due to the pressure of public opinion. The Mavericks themselves still don't take it seriously, but winning is naturally the goal, the only goal.

In this state, the second game between the Mavericks and the Hornets came.

On May 5th, at the New Orleans Arena, players from both sides were gearing up, and the game was about to start.

"Hello, viewers and friends, welcome to our NBA live broadcast. Today I bring you the second game of the Western Conference Finals. The Mavericks challenged the Hornets away. Today I will explain to you. I am Yang Jian. … ...The guest commentator invited for everyone today is, Teacher Su Qun, Teacher Su, hello..." It can be regarded as a substitution, and Yu Jia should also take a break.

"Hello fans, today, we still have a lot to watch in this game. What we want to talk about is who is better, Chris Paul or Hu Lin. The last game seems to have an answer to this question, but I still think Hu Lin doesn't What's the difference, it can be said that there is no loss. Let's talk about statistics. Although Hu Lin has fewer points and assists, I have seen the ball. In terms of assists, there is no way. The Mavericks can't make shots. Let's talk about scoring, control Well, actually, I personally think that we should organize more passes and pass the ball more. Although Paul is very good, he takes the ball too much. This is not a good phenomenon..."

Teacher Su still likes Hu Lin more, and he is indeed "selfless and wide-ranging" now.

"Oh, the competition has already started, let's go back to the scene of the competition." After Mr. Su's long speech, Yang Jian finally found a chance to speak, but the competition has indeed begun.

At the beginning of the game, there was something different this time. When Nowitzki jumped the ball, he won!

It's not easy, it's really not easy, that is, this time the referee seems to be a little short in height, and the throw of the ball is relatively not high, so Nowitzki, who reacted faster, hit the ball smartly.

Now that the first attack has been won, don't be confused, Lao Hu immediately called Nowitzki out, and then, with a simple pick-and-roll, immediately passed the ball to the German.

Swish!Opening the record for the first time, Nowitzki swept away the depressed state of consecutive misses in the previous game.

This second game is not the same as the first game, especially at the beginning, the head coaches of both sides have arranged corresponding tactics. They did not let Hu Lin and Paul face each other when they came up. It can be said to be straight to the point. Bar.

In order to realize this combat plan, the simplest is that Terry returned to the main lineup, but Carlisle did not win the veteran Jones, he replaced Diop, that is to say, now the Mavericks' inside line has become Noah. Viski and David Lee are a pair of whites.

The Hornets happen to be a pair of blacks, and this time, there is a lot of racial concepts in it. Of course, it is not 1969 anymore.

This change is quite sophisticated, Nowitzki is no longer outside, he is mainly defending the opponent's center Chandler, anyway, the boxing champion will not attack, even Nowitzki should have no problem.

The answer came out immediately, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

Even if Nowitzki defends Chandler, Paul has not given the ball to his center teammate, because it is not in the battle plan at all. Paul's choice is David West. Compared with Chandler, West Ster's style of play is more conducive to positional warfare and offense.It's like what, it's like Stockton and Karl Malone for the Hornets.

Bang!But West still couldn't grasp the first shot in the opening game.

But don't worry, Chandler under the basket played his advantage, rebounding!

With a snap, Dapeng took the rebound into his arms as if he spread his wings. Nowitzki said that he also jumped, but he was really not as tall as his opponent.

Seeing that Nowitzki jumped, Chandler immediately played his continuous jumping ability, and immediately threw himself into the air again.

Nowitzki is really not his opponent. Now the Germans can only watch this 'champion' fly up, and at most they can only stretch out their hands.

However, after flying, Chandler regretted it, because he seemed to have forgotten that it was not very close to the basket.

Bang!A shot that jumped very high and had a standard posture, but it just didn't make it, was born.

Hey, Nowitzki didn't let go of the rebound this time, and Chandler couldn't get up even if he could jump.

"Shhhhhh..." Hornets fans went about their routines again.

"Keep up! Keep up!..." Carlisle seemed a little anxious on the sidelines. He didn't want his team to lose another game now, because he felt that the Mavericks were stronger than their opponents. Therefore, at the beginning of the game, he Just keep urging his players.

There is no fast break opportunity, and the opponent's return to defense is quite fast, so let's fall into the position.

Lao Hu didn't control the ball. He was running towards the blue, but halfway through the run, he immediately turned around to catch the ball.

Slap, the basketball is in hand, Lao Hu is very straightforward this time, without any fake moves, he directly turns around and shoots!
Is it true this time?However, the body is up.

Peterson posted that he wasn't going to give the opponent the shot.

Whoosh!But this is not a shot, Lao Li has already got a good position under the basket!
Bang, swish!Two points forward, using Nowitzki's cover, Lao Li easily scored the goal.

It seems that the Mavericks are in good condition.
