Nba: Load Doncic Template After Being Banned

Blast! Blast!

The Mavericks lead the Spurs 3:1. For the American media, this is a big upset!

You know, before the playoffs, not many media and fans were optimistic about the Mavericks.

After all, everyone feels that there is no way for a team that has no defense to go further in the playoffs.

They even felt that it was impossible for the Mavericks to survive the second round.

After all, last year's game is still vivid. When the Mavericks met the Kings, they were completely suppressed because of defensive problems.

However, when the Mavericks passed the level of the Kings and reached the Western Conference Finals, and even led the Spurs 3:1, everyone's cognition was overturned~!

Admittedly, the Mavericks are actually no weaker than the Spurs if you only look at the regular season record.

At the same time, the league's first record of 60 wins and 22 losses, the Mavericks are only behind the Spurs because of the relationship between wins and losses.

Such two teams, it seems that they should be evenly matched.

But in fact, the regular season and the playoffs are two completely different games. The Mavericks have no defense and do not play inside. In the eyes of current fans and experts, it is impossible to make a difference in the playoffs. As for competing for the championship, that's even more impossible.

However, something unusual happened in the whole incident!

In this way, we can only attribute the reason to the only variable of the Mavericks.

That's right, this variable is Wang Zhi!

Compared with last season, the Mavericks this season, the biggest difference, or the biggest improvement [is the team's second-year rookie Wang Zhi has a very scary improvement.

It can even be said to be a qualitative leap!

In the regular season, Wang Zhi has already improved the data of 5 points, 2 rebounds last year to 22 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. Not only did he win the most improved player, but he also won the best sixth man award.

For a second-year player, this kind of improvement is already very scary.

But in the playoffs, Wang Zhi's crazy performance was just beginning.

After averaging 33 points per game in the Western Conference semifinals, he led the team to eliminate the Kings in the tiebreaker.

Facing the stronger Spurs, Wang Zhi even scored 50 points in a single game in the crucial fourth game, leading the Mavericks to a narrow victory over the Spurs!

It's no wonder that those media attribute the reason why the Mavericks can achieve such results to him.

"Wang Zhi exploded with great energy. He led the Mavericks to win a game that shouldn't have been won!"

"Our point of view is not wrong, defense wins championships! Mavericks can continue to win without defense | This is also because the situation fits another point of view: The playoffs are the stage for superstars!"

"Yes, the two points of view do not conflict, because when one of them has too much influence, the other point of view sometimes becomes dispensable.!"

It's as if these pundits would rather admit that Wang Zhi, who hasn't achieved any high-profile honors, is a superstar than admit that he can win a championship without defense.

In their view, the NBA has always been dominated by defense and centers.

The Mavericks have no defense and no center. Logically speaking, they shouldn't have achieved this kind of result.

But they have Wang Zhi, then everything can be ignored.

Because Wang Zhi has performed miracles more than once!

The whole of Dallas was in a carnival, and on the second day, their celebrations continued.

They even took to the streets and alleys. On the route of the Mavericks bus leading to the airport, they lined up neatly, holding slogans in their hands and singing songs to send the Mavericks off to St.

Although Dallas is very close to San Antonio, it is completely possible to drive there by bus.

But this time, in order to give the Mavericks players enough rest, team owner Mark Cuban even used two of his own private jets to send the Mavericks players and coaching staff to San Antonio.

He himself, of course, went with the team!

The players of the Mavericks are naturally extremely relaxed.

Since reaching the Western Conference Finals, their mentality has not changed.

On the plane, there was only half an hour. Everyone talked and laughed, and even played a game of Texas Hold'em.

Soon, the destination was reached.

The Mavericks didn't even practice that day, so they checked into the hotel directly and had a rest.

On the second day, the team began to arrange some warm-up training, and the coaching staff also began to prepare for the tactics of G5.

For the Spurs, losing G4 is undoubtedly a huge blow!

0...asking for flowers...

The team has no room for error. If they are not eliminated, they must win the next three games.

There is no room for negligence.

And this G5 may be the most critical!

Although it was a home game, the Mavericks were in high spirits.

They are undervalued.

The last game was not won, so that this game, which was supposed to be the battle of Tianwang Mountain, became their city defense battle!

Tim Duncan played very well in the last game, scored 38 points and 17 rebounds, and still lost.

And Manu Ginobili seems to be the sinner in San Antonio.

He had hoped to win the game and become the hero of the Spurs.

He also did it, at the end of the game, his three-pointer, and his breakthrough storm drew a foul.

0

When the referee's whistle sounded, the Spurs had already seen the hope of winning.

The fans in Dallas are in infinite pain.

However, the two missed free throws at the critical moment caused some reversals.

The Spurs failed to make a lore, and the Mavericks won a thrilling victory!

As one of the three cores of the Spurs, Ginobili should not have made such a mistake.

At this time, in the training of the Spurs, he was practicing free throws non-stop.

Already made 1,000 free throws and scored 778.

In fact, this nearly 80% free throw percentage is very good. It can't be said to be particularly excellent, but at least it doesn't stretch the hips.

It's just that he really couldn't figure it out, his free throws weren't bad, so why didn't he make two free throws when the feeling was so hot?

Ginobili attributed the reason to the Mavericks' on-site interference.

Back then, he remembered, there were deafening cheers and boos all around.

He had tried his best to get rid of distracting thoughts at that time, but the worst situation still appeared.

In order to overcome this situation, Ginobili even put on headphones and played that very restless death rock in the headphones.

The sound is also turned up to the maximum.

So that Popovich came to him, he was completely unaware.

Seeing Ginobili so serious, Popovich also showed a smile.

It seems that this eagle from the Pampas Plateau is really planning to redeem himself Xie. .
