Nba: This Superstar Is Too Stable

On the day of the NBA Game 7, Dallas was like a festive city.

The whole city was decorated with lights, and the fans took to the streets, wearing red and purple, chatting and laughing...

Today is not a day off, but the mayor of Dallas announced that all institutions must have a holiday on this day, and he personally led the motorcade and hung up the slogan of cheering for the Mavericks, and began a city-wide parade since the morning.

In the United States, basketball has a huge influence, especially in some cities, it can make citizens crazy!

Obviously, as the second largest city in Texas, the citizens of Dallas, full of cowboy atmosphere, have a different kind of enthusiasm for basketball.

But after all, the Mavericks only joined the league 30 years ago, and the history is not long.

In the past 30 years, I have been struggling and Panpan, but I have only entered the finals twice, both in the last five years.

The "tragedy" five years ago is still vivid in my mind, and now, under the leadership of the "Nuo Tianwang", this Mavericks team has made a comeback and returned to the finals [and hit their home court!

Obviously, this year's Mavericks are no longer the inexperienced Mavericks of the year, and the 33-year-old Dirk Nowitzki has already proved that he is no longer the "soft egg" in the mouths of fans, this season's playoffs. , He proved himself with his super performances one after another, and in the finals of the battle of Tianwang Mountain, he re-enacted Jordan's flu night, and he was a god in one fell swoop!

In addition, except that the overall age is slightly older, the entire Mavericks team is perfectly equipped, and it is a tiebreaker at home again, but the key is mostly stability!

Obviously, today's Dallas, but fully prepared to win the team's first championship!

The Knicks generals came out of the hotel early in the morning, sat on the bus, and saw the sight of the city, because they were all disdainful.

"Do they really think they have the chance to win?"

"It's just, I'd love to see how sad it is for Dallas to lose a championship."

"Guys, if we can really take home the championship, New York will be more lively than this!"

It can be heard that the players of the Knicks are also full of confidence in winning the tiebreaker on the road!

It is true, after all, the game reached the tiebreaker. Both sides won three games each, and each had an advantage. No one took advantage. Naturally, they were full of confidence.

While everyone was chatting, Bai Feng was closing his eyes and resting.

It's not that he didn't rest well last night, on the contrary, he slept very well last night, and his body and mind are in an excellent state at this time.

It's not that Bai Feng doesn't want to win, on the contrary, he wants to win this championship more than anyone else!

However, Bai Feng is also very clear that the key to the Knicks' victory is to play "steadily"!

Perhaps, this is not the same as the perception and cognition of most fans.

Most of them may think that the only way to win the game is when the stars stand up and take it all in, unstoppable?!

In fact, this is of course a wrong view.

In the NBA, the best way for a team to win is always the team's efforts and more blooming!

Obviously, the "basketball is a five-player game" often repeated by the coaches is not just a talk. As a team sport, it is the best situation to naturally play as a whole.

With just one superstar to win the game, why not change to a heads-up rule?

The fact is also constantly proving that when only one player on the team plays an explosive scoring performance, most of the time they lose, and even if they win, most of them won't be easy.

Kobe Bryant's 81 points in a single game that year was a game that the Raptors won at the last moment when they were behind most of the time.

McGrady's 35 seconds and 13 points shocked the world that year, and it was also the final lore of the game.

To put it bluntly, if the teammates are in Turin, there is no need for a super scorer to stand up in adversity.

Looking back on the Knicks' playoffs this year, Bai Feng's games with more than 40 points at the airport were also played when Anthony and Stoudemire both failed.

Not lore opponents, is regrettable defeat.

In winning games, Stoudemire and Anthony are often able to play stably on the offensive end, and White School acts as a point guard to stabilize the team's offensive and defensive rhythm.

Therefore, Bai Feng's current state is not wrong at all. He needs to keep calm and think carefully about how to get the Knicks into the best state in tonight's game.

Coincidentally, the coaching staff of the Mavericks are studying in the same direction.

In order to ensure that the team can enter the rhythm of winning, but also try to destroy the opponent's rhythm.

Yes, when the finals reached the level of the tiebreaker, it was difficult for the two teams to make any changes. At this time, of course, the game was just two words: rhythm!

Every team has a different rhythm.

Most junior fans' understanding of rhythm only stays at the level of fast, medium and slow.

But in the subdivision of the coaching staff of each team, in fact, there are many details that can be grasped.

As big as the rotation of personnel and time, as small as the timing of movement in each round. . . .

Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle and his coaching staff finally settled on guidelines for Game 7 after two days of research.

That's a gamble! Do your best to disrupt the Knicks' offensive tempo!

Why is it a gamble? Isn't the Mavericks' overall strength in possession? There is still home field advantage, so why not play normally?

This issue may be complicated to discuss, but of course every NBA game cannot be static.

Especially a best-of-seven series.

It stands to reason that most of the teams that lost the last game would take the initiative to change.

The Mavericks lost G6 not just because they were playing on the road. According to the analysis of the coaching staff, the reason they lost rebounds was that they didn't do a good job on the defensive end.

If this game wants to change this situation, it will have to "gamble".

Said to be a "gambling", but Carlisle and the assistants all believed that this was not a 55/50 odds. On an optimistic point of view, their odds of winning would be significantly greater.

The Knicks don't know what tactics the Mavericks will use in this Game 7.

Mike D'Antoni is too lazy to think about it, after all, the Knicks lineup is like this, he is immutable.

It can only be changed with the same thing.

Everything is left to the players to play. After all, as a three-core team, as a coach in such a team, sometimes it is necessary to lie down. If you come out and exert yourself, it may cause negative effects to the team. effect.

time flies!

In the blink of an eye, the sun begins to set, and the final matchup of the NBA 10-11 season is about to kick off!

NBA President David Stern came to the scene with the championship trophy. There were also many celebrities on the sidelines. Of course, in Dallas, this kind of battle was far worse than Madison in New York.

However, the fans here are still enthusiastic!

The whole venue is a sea of ​​blue and white!

There were only a few fans wearing visiting uniforms on the Knicks bench.

These people are also very interesting.

Former NBA Rockets super center Dayao, as well as popular beautiful girl singer Taylor Swift, Hollywood flower Scarlett Johansson...

It can be seen that they are all fans of Bai Feng.

When the lights were dimmed, the explosive music sounded, and the starters of the home team filed in.

At the end of the appearance ceremony, the lights came on, and the players of the visiting team also appeared.

[The Knicks start]

[The Mavericks start]

Point Guard: Jason Kidd

Shooting Guard: De Sean Stevenson

Small Forward: Sean Marion

Power Forward: Dirk Nowitzki

Center: Tyson Chandler

In the final tiebreaker, the two sides still sent the most used classic starting lineups in this round of series.

The Knicks will never change the starting lineup, while the Mavericks are a classic one offense and four defenses.

Players from both sides came to the middle circle, and everyone's face was very serious!

For a championship contender with a decisive victory, everyone is both looking forward to and nervous!

Countless flashes were lit on the scene, and countless cameras were ready to start recording this historic moment.

The Mavericks fans have also stood up and are cheering for the home team.

beep!

As the referee blew the whistle, the battle finally started!

Tyson Chandler earned the Mavericks their first offense.

After Kidd dribbled the ball across the frontcourt, he directly gave it to Dirk Nowitzki who was holding the ball with his back at 45 degrees. The Knicks did not double-team as soon as they came up. The hand wind, then use Turiaf single defense.

After Nowitzki's post-up, an iconic golden rooster shot alone, raw!

0:2

It can be seen that he is in good shape today.

The audience cheered, and the fans could sit and watch the game.

When it was the Knicks' turn to attack, the fans shouted "Defense! Defense! Defense!"

From the beginning of the fight, they were fully engaged, and many fans screamed as hard as they could without worrying about their throat being damaged.

Perhaps it was because of the huge solidarity given by the New York fans at the home of the G6 Knicks that stimulated them. In this game, the Dallas fans should also create the same atmosphere to show that they did not lose to the New York fans.

After Bai Feng dribbled the ball across the frontcourt, he immediately noticed the Mavericks' great defensive change.

When Marion defended Anthony, he tried his best to defend around the front. Although there was enough space behind Anthony, Nowitzki on the other side seemed to be staring at that position.

Obviously, this is a typical catch defense routine.

The purpose of this kind of defense is to break the pass from the ball handler to Anthony from the very beginning.

Different from getting the ball and then double-teaming him, the latter can better force the offensive player to make mistakes by double-teaming.

This situation is very difficult to pass the ball, once the cooperation is not tacit enough, there will be passing errors.

Therefore, Bai Feng gave up the idea of ​​directly giving the ball to Anthony.

Over there, Xiao Si understood and immediately ran out to do a pick-and-roll for Bai Feng.

The most simple and efficient tactics of the Knicks' offense are nothing more than two, one is for Anthony to single, and the other is for Bai Feng and Stoudemire to play pick-and-roll.

The pick-and-roll is still at the end of the game as always. The pick-and-roll given by Stoudemire is sufficient, and his preparations after the pick-and-roll are also very sharp.

However, the Mavericks' defense has changed again.

No delays!

When Stoudemire was dismantled, Jason Kidd did not immediately return to defending Bai Feng even after changing positions.

It is on the passing path of Bai Feng and Stoudemire.

Obviously, he was deliberately blocking Bai Feng's passing route.

Generally, it is a pick-and-roll with a player like Stoudemire. If Stoudemire succeeds in a smooth pass, Bai Feng has two of the best passing routes for him.

One is in the air and the other is near the ground.

The air line is easy to understand, but as long as the opponent's inside players follow the defense in time, this line can be pinched.

But even if the air route is blocked, Bai Feng still has a near-ground route.

Find Stoudemire by hitting the ground pass!

Even though Chandler sometimes gets in between the two, it's hard to guard the touchdown pass due to Chandler's stature.

At this time, Kidd was sealed on this passing route, and the two passing routes that Bai Feng could give to Stoudemire were almost cut off.

In an instant, Bai Feng roughly understood the defensive thinking of the Mavericks' opening game today.

They want to completely cut off the connection between themselves and their teammates!

Obviously, whether it's Marion's defense against Anthony, or the Mavericks' defensive response after the pick-and-roll, it's all going in this direction.

While not letting Bai Feng pass the ball, what the Mavericks have to pay is naturally to blank 597 Feng.

Kidd went to pinch the pass line, Bai Feng was actually in a semi-vacuum position.

There's even a half-open shot.

In this regard, Bai Feng did not hesitate, holding the ball and opening his hand was a three-pointer.

bang!

Hardened.

"Ding, Offensive Pick: Good. Shooting Pick: Good. Gain: Solid Value +3, USD +300."

There is no problem with Bai Feng's attacking options, if the opponent dares to let it go, he shares!

This play is very reasonable.

But unfortunately, Bai Feng's hand was not very good, and he was not able to make a shot.

Some Mavericks fans may not understand the core of the field, and they even complain.

"I'm going, what is Kidd doing, defend it. ...... Fortunately, I didn't make a shot."

"Don't think about it, you gave such a shot at the beginning? Bai Feng on the opposite side is very accurate.

They probably didn't notice that the Mavericks' coaching bench was relaxed at this time, and even several assistant coaches showed a smile.

"Hahaha, our decision seems to be off to a good start. That Asian kid doesn't seem to have any good points today, so let him go!"

"Even if he is accurate, it doesn't matter, is it possible that he can be so accurate the whole game?"

"Even if he is so accurate the whole game, can he still score 81 points?"

The Mavericks attacked. After Kidd dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he gave it to Nowitzki again. This time, Anthony began to have a tendency to double-team.

But Nowitzki is unmoved, unless Anthony is really double-teamed, otherwise, he will have to single to the end!

With a turnaround shot fake, Turia went and wasn't picked up by Kun.

But after Nowitzki took the initiative to meet the confrontation, it was another iconic "Golden Rooster Independence".

Still hit!

0:4

The cheers of the fans at the scene had reached a deafening level, and the whole scene was extremely frenetic.

A 4-point lead is not much, but Dirk Nowitzki's good opening form is the fundamental factor behind their frenzy.

In the last two games, the newly named "King of Heaven" has completely found his invincible state in the Western Finals.

This makes Dallas fans extremely convinced that as long as Nowitzki is in shape, then the Mavericks are invincible!

This is not their wishful thinking, but the real feedback of factual data.

The Knicks offensive, Bai Feng at this time, had to face this special "test" specially customized for him by the Mavericks in the tiebreaker of the finals.

Yes, it's also an "unknown" situation in a way.

Again, before, Bai Feng had never encountered a defense that specifically cut off his passing lanes.

However, there are differences. Bai Feng knows very well how to deal with this kind of defense.

And last time, he also made a reasonable choice.

However, sometimes being reasonable does not necessarily mean scoring goals.

How to convert his reasonable attack options into points is something he should consider. .
