I'm really good at shooting.

"Well, the reality is cruel, but in this episode, I can hear that he wants to go to the Mavericks."

"If you don't say it, you don't feel it, but when you say it, it really is! He is madly showing favor to the Mavericks in this episode!"

"Tsk tsk, I can't wait for the offseason, tell me if Michael will come back soon! My restless little heart."

……

Barkley and Jordan, this old man combination is unwilling to be lonely, and it really whetted the appetite of the fans.

This summer is destined to be crazy.

……

After two days of rest in Dallas, the Mavericks are about to go to the away game to usher in the G6 game.

Before departure, Cuban and Nelson Sr. had a quarrel over whether Nowitzki would play in G6.

"The team doctor said that Dirk's injury has recovered to 80%, and he can play."

Cuban very much hopes that Nowitzki can appear in the G6 game.

"I say no, I can't risk Dirk's career."

Old Nelson's attitude was very firm.

"Don, it's just a sprained ankle, don't make the problem so big."

Cuban felt that Nelson Sr. was making a fuss.

"Mark, do you want to win an extra round or even a playoff game, or do you want a healthy player who can be the core of the team for the next ten or even 20 years?"

Old Nelson asked back.

"Don, you always exaggerate. Why don't we ask Dirk for his own opinion? He has the right to make his own choice, right?"

Cuban always felt that Nelson Sr. exaggerated the problem.

"No, Dirk will not let him fight if he wants to. I am the head coach of the team. I have the final say whether he fights or not."

"you!"

Cuban was pissed off by Nelson Sr.

However, the old Nelson had a great influence on the Mavericks. His boss had only been with the team for a year. He turned around and left without saying anything at the end.

That day, the Mavericks flew to San Antonio.

Nowitzki will go with the team, but will not play in G6.

On the plane, Nowitzki asked to play for the team. In order to prove that he was almost good, he walked back and forth on the plane several times, but he failed to impress the old Nelson.

"Dirk, you should learn some dance, hip-hop or something, with a little more movement, then maybe Tang will change his mind."

After sitting down, Sun Hao joked with a smile.

"Sun, I think Tang is really too careful. If I can't play, our efforts for the whole season may be in vain."

Nowitzki looked frustrated, and Cuban was right, he didn't want to miss such a game.

"We'll have more opportunities like that."

Sun Hao patted Nowitzki on the shoulder.

Everyone has to take a long-term view, and temporary gains and losses are not completely unacceptable.

Just like the Lakers in the 07-08 season in history, they lost the finals, but it made them play a crazier season in the 08-09 season and completed two consecutive championships.

And more importantly, Nowitzki himself, whose career is just getting started.

If he is not a time traveler, maybe his thoughts will be the same as Cuban and Nowitzki.

But because he is a time traveler, he knows that there have been too many such things in history.

Thomas Jr., McGrady, Durant...

They sacrificed for the team in the end, but the Celtics, Houston, Warriors, which team didn't abandon them?

In a sense, Old Nelson is the good man who treats Nowitzki from the bottom of his heart, and the word mentor is definitely worthy of it.

"And, what if we win?"

Sun Hao said with a smile.

Chapter 185 For Dirk! (updated again)

Nowitzki smiled wryly.

Well, it seems a bit difficult, and a bit unrealistic.

"Anything is possible, that Barkley guy is against us, so you have to be ready to play in G7."

Seeing Nowitzki's expression, Sun Hao stroked Nowitzki's long hair and said.

Everything is possible, this slogan for the future of nba is very contagious.

Nowitzki put away his smile and nodded seriously, and that was the only thing he could do.

After arriving in San Antonio, the Mavericks conducted a closed practice, which was not open to the media.

Even whether Nowitzki will play, the media did not get a definite message before the game.

The next night, the AT&T Center, home of the Spurs, was packed.

This is the match point game for the Spurs. If they win this game, they will be able to eliminate the Mavericks with a big score of 4 to 2 and return to the Western Conference Finals again.

They also expected that to happen, because last time, they won the championship directly after entering the Western Conference Finals.

Players from both teams entered the field one after another.

It was at this time that fans discovered Nowitzki in suits and ties.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

This kind of dress means that Nowitzki will not play tonight!

If Nowitzki doesn't play, it's impossible for the Spurs to lose this game!

In fact, if it wasn't for Nowitzki in the last game, the Spurs had already ended the battle in three quarters, and there would be no such messy things in the last few minutes.

A smile spread across Popovich's face.

In the last game, he was ready to say to the old Nelson, "You can't win the championship in this way", even though it was a game late, he could accept it.

After the warm-up on both sides, enter the opening ceremony.

The starters of the two teams have been released one after another.

For the Mavericks, Nash and Sun Hao on the outside, Finley and Uncle Huo on the front line, and Bradley at the center.

This lineup is very conventional, but this is also the helplessness of Nowitzki and the old Nelson.

Cuban also went to the sidelines with the team, and his face didn't look very good.

With this lineup, even he, the number one fan of the Mavericks, felt that there was basically no chance of winning.

On the Spurs side, Avery Johnson and Porter on the outside, Daniels at small forward, Duncan and Robinson at center.

Popovich also made adjustments to the starting lineup. The "little general" who performed well before entered the starting lineup to replace Anderson, who performed poorly in the series.

Coupled with the return of Daniels to the starting lineup, Popovich sent the team's strongest lineup, which is trying to beat the Mavericks to the ground with a stick at the beginning.

The game was about to start, and Sun Hao called out the starters who were going to play at this time.

He raised his hand and clenched his fist, but this time he didn't want to shout the team slogan, but just said two English words firmly.

"For. Dirk."

For Dirk.

These two words are more motivating than any rhetoric.

"beep!"

The referee whistled, Bradley turned the ball back to the Mavericks' half, and G6 started!

The Mavericks played in the frontcourt, but Nowitzki didn't play. Uncle Huo played his previous role, using the mid-range shot from the cover.

"Shh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Uncle Huo is not a player who can score explosively. The highest score in a single game is only 42 points. He got it when he was with the Bullets in his second year as a rookie.

But his scoring has always been very stable, especially a mid-range jumper, which is his killer weapon.

Uncle Huo helped the Mavericks take the lead, but when he came back, Duncan turned inside and scored two points.

Although the lineup was adjusted, the Spurs played inside the Mavericks.

And just beat Duncan.

If you choose a player with the most stable performance in the NBA, Duncan will definitely be elected with a high number of votes.

But Second Uncle Huo's mid-range jumper after catching the ball...and more!

He scored 4 points in a row!

The Mavericks bench was boiling.

Nowitzki is not here, Uncle Huo stepped forward!

Duncan's 45° angle hits the board again!

He played against Nowitzki last time, and this time he faced Uncle Huo again!

Uncle Huo continued to catch the ball in the frontcourt. The Mavericks had the same thinking as the previous game, and they played the middle distance that the Spurs put.

But this time Duncan's defense was in place.

Uncle Huo rushed in with the ball and hit the board at close range.

"boom!"

Duncan seized the opportunity and came directly to a big hat!

Compared with Nowitzki, Uncle Huo's talent is still a little worse after all.

However, Uncle Huo managed to get the offensive rebound!

After he took the offensive rebound, he saw that Duncan was still in front of him. He didn't make a strong attack, but threw the ball to the outside Nash to continue organizing.

Although this offense was not successful, it disrupted the Spurs' defensive formation.

Sun Hao came out to catch the ball through Finley's cover, and shot a three-pointer directly.

"Shh!"

Knife up and down.

Sun Hao hit the Mavericks' first three-pointer of the field!

4 is better than 7!

Although Nowitzki couldn't play, the Mavericks played well against the Spurs at the beginning.

Barkley's metaphysics at work?Or, for Dirk.

Johnson also used Duncan's cover to break through for a layup!

Although the little general does not have the ability to shoot three-pointers from the outside, he is always used to break through.

6 is better than 7!

The Mavericks didn't make a move in the frontcourt, and Robinson didn't make a mid-range shot, but Duncan made a tip-up.

8:7.

Sun Hao made a three-pointer from the outside, tricked Porter into the inside and confronted Duncan and missed the shot. The referee didn't blow the whistle.

But Sun Hao shot himself and grabbed the offensive rebound and then caused Duncan to foul!

Continuing against the sky, Sun Hao made both free throws!

8 is better than 9!
