Halfway through the second quarter, the main lineups of both sides returned, the score was 46:54, and the Lakers took the lead away.

This point of Bradley was fully utilized by the Lakers.It's no wonder that Dampier held 7 million for 7300 years, and the Mavericks still don't look like a garbage contract. The Mavericks' inside defense is really poor, and he is a pillar of the defensive end.

In fact, in terms of low-post defense and rebound protection, Dampier is indeed a "high-end player" among the blue-collar insiders. You can say that he is not cost-effective, but you cannot say that he is not efficient.But in addition to the big contract, another shortcoming he has been criticized for is that his foul control is very poor.

Except for last season's contract year, when he was able to average 34.3 minutes per game, he played no more than 30 minutes in every other season, and his average playing time this season was only 28 minutes.Moreover, his short playing time is not because he plays hard and consumes a lot of energy. It is purely due to his heavy defensive actions and many fouls.It is equivalent to saying that the Mavericks spend 1050 million a year to raise a quasi-first-class blue-collar insider who can only play 28 minutes a game.

In the first quarter of the game, Dampier has been backed with two fouls. As long as he is beaten down, the Mavericks' inside defense will drop at least a notch.Ke Yan taught Kobe and Odom face-to-face, pointing out the potential crisis of the Mavericks.

Life is like a chocolate, you don't know whether the next one will be bitter or sweet.Didn't wait until Kobe took the initiative to find Dampier on the offensive end, and Dampier caught his third foul when he grabbed a rebound!

Avery Johnson didn't realize it even when the Lakers were serving, and he didn't realize the crisis until the assistant coach next to him reminded him.

Kobe Bryant rushed to the basket, and Dampier, who had three fouls on his back, was just a symbolic defense. He watched Kobe jump up and dunk!Open the point difference to 10 points.

If it is Ke Yan, Nowitzki will be arranged to appear in the center position at this time. At least the height, physique, and tactical awareness of the German chariot are no problem. The Lakers exploded.

But Johnson did not have the experimental spirit of "mad scientists" like Nelson and Keyan. Bradley's defensive effect was not good, so he replaced the third center Mbenga, an insider with nothing but body.

Johnson's incompetent move greatly reduced the pressure on the Lakers' defense. Mbenga's performance after his debut was almost at the level of a war criminal. The Lakers seized this wave of "five-on-four" opportunities and played a wave of 8:2 in one go. The point difference was widened to 16 points, and the advantage was maintained until the end of the first half. (50:66)

In the third quarter of the game, the Mavericks relied on the strongest singles team in the league to close the score. Avery Johnson simply removed Finley, who made it difficult for him. Terry and Stackhouse formed a double guard, able to shoot suddenly .

Kobe faced Stackhouse on the defensive end, and he was restrained a lot of energy, which affected his offensive state.Both Odom and Anderson were at a disadvantage against Nowitzki. Nowitzki played singles with the ball, turned around and shot, picked and rolled, and scored consecutive jump shots.

And when the Lakers flanked, Nowitzki began to pass the ball, and other teammates could also score, and the Lakers' defense ignored one thing and lost another.

The Mavericks rely on offense to win, and there is no one in the league that can completely defend against them. The Suns may not even be able to beat them!

Ke Yan was thinking about the countermeasures on the sidelines, and at the same time, he was glad that the Mavericks at least had Dampier at the center position, and Nowitzki did not develop the later "Golden Rooster Independence", otherwise the Lakers would be even more difficult to parry!

The Mavericks once approached the point difference to 3 points, which made the Lakers fans break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Kobe and House hit three-pointers respectively, helping the Lakers to pull the point difference back to 8 points before the end of the third quarter. . (88:96)

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers continued to make a fuss about the weakness of the Mavericks' inside line without Dampier, even more extreme than in the second quarter. Odom held the ball at the top of the arc, House, Delfino, Butler, Barnes completely opened up the space, and put two glasses of poison in front of Bradley to see which one he would choose.

Bradley chose to follow up and defend. Odom and Butler completed hand-to-hand cooperation and blocked Josh Howard. Bradley couldn't keep up with Butler's speed, so he got stuck and retreated to the inside. It was too late, already The rushing Butler managed to find the opportunity to dunk the highest height in the league, and he would not let go. He almost jumped after Bradley, took the initiative to bump Bradley, and then lost the ball before losing his balance. Slam into the basket hard!

The feeling of falling to the ground was very painful, but Butler's face did not show any pain, but a serious expression on his face.Remind the photographer, "Did you take the shot? I dunked Bradley, are you on top of the list?"

The Mavericks attacked, and Devin Harris relied on LaFrentz to get rid of House and hit a mid-range shot.Although the No. [-] pick of this season is only a substitute for the Mavericks, his potential is still good. He has speed and a mid-range distance.

The Mavericks' next round of offense was still initiated by Harris. He broke through to attract the defense and gave the ball to Finley who cut the ball. The latter caught the ball and opened Delfino and scored from the mid-range.

Finley's status in the Mavericks gradually declined. He gradually transformed into a shooter and couldn't complete Johnson's singles task, but he still had a high salary. The knife cut him off.

This also reflects the terrifying perimeter depth of the Mavericks today. A player like Finley would actually consider laying off.

The Lakers' offense continued to target Bradley. Bradley came out of defense. Odom's skillful dribble passed the opponent. He didn't even give Bradley a chance to foul. Finley let go Butler, who was defending himself, retracted to the three-second line. Odom jumped up and passed the ball. After jumping into the air, he found Butler's position. Terry assisted in the defense and rotated, but missed Delphi, who was more threatening three-pointers No, the latter even had time to adjust the dribble, and shot at the rhythm of training, hit! (92:101)

Odom's handling of the ball is not reasonable, and it is a taboo to jump up and pass the ball.But the vision brought by his height and wingspan makes it possible to achieve the effect even if the handling of the ball is unreasonable. This is also a real talent.

The Lakers wanted to take the opportunity to widen the point difference, but the Mavericks' players were indeed superior in personal ability. They used their personal offense to slow down the progress of the Lakers. In the last 7 minutes of the game, the point difference was still 9 points (100:109). The main players from both sides returned to the field and started the final battle!

Terry dribbled the ball across the half, got the ball in the middle, and Atkins defended alone.Nowitzki screens on the left for Stackhouse, who runs to 70 degrees to receive a pass from Terry.

Anderson switched defenses in time, and Stackhouse took advantage of the situation to lead the center and passed the ball to Nowitzki who was pulled to the outside.

The latter received the ball from the flank and faced Butler's defense, trying to break through, forcing Butler to retreat. In fact, he made a neat three-point shot from outside the line and made a hit! (103:109)

Nowitzki's shooting threat is well known to the whole world, but compared with the unsolvable mid-range shot, he doesn't take too many shots from outside the three-point line, and Butler is a little bit overwhelmed.

Facing this kind of superstar, there must be this kind of "defensive inertia". This is a mindset!

The Lakers attacked, and Kobe Bryant singled Howard chose to attack from the right side. During the march, his body made a sharp change of direction. Point, shake Butler in front of him, gently hold the ball with his left hand, then close his right hand, get up and shoot.

"brush!"

The ball passed through the net without any hesitation. (103:111)

Kobe VS Nowitzki, ace against ace!
