I’m Really Playing Basketball

After playing G4 in this year's finals, it's hard for anyone to imagine that the Bobcats would be pulled two games in a row by the Mavericks when they won two games in a row at home and took a 2-0 lead.

Although the Mavericks lost very little in the first two games, after the first two games, the Mavericks man who looked like a **** in the playoffs had already caught a cold, and it looked very serious. From a variety of situations , the situation of the Mavericks are quite mourning, quite sad.

How could such a team bounce back?

In fact, if you think about it a little bit, it is understandable.

Although the Mavericks lost the first two games of the finals, they lost less than five points in each away game, which is actually very close.

So, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Mavericks and Lynx are quite subtle.

The strength of the two teams is similar, but the driver suddenly caught a cold and looked like he was about to collapse. The fans of the Bobcats had already celebrated the team's championship in advance by laughing at the driver.

In this case, would you say that the Bobcats players would not have any contempt for the Mavericks?

Needless to say, there must be.

If it wasn't for Chen Xiao to stop them, O'Neal and Granger who came out of the airport would have coughed along with the fans to laugh at the driver who dropped the chain at the critical moment.

Although stopped by Chen Xiao, the Bobcats players did not cough on the surface, but how many Bobcats players coughed in their hearts? I really despise the Mavericks in my heart, thinking that I have already decided this finals?

Probably not less.

Judging from the surprise and shock of the Bobcats players who seemed to be suddenly attacked in these two away games, most of the Bobcats players were not ready for the next game with the Mavericks.

The strength can't keep up.

The Mavericks were still super-strength in the previous two games, and they still tightened the clockwork, or even tightened it even tighter.

The lynx was suddenly a little discouraged.

Such a sudden collision between the two sides, even if the lynx is the big one, I am afraid that it will be knocked flying.

And in fact it is true, g3 and g4, the Mavericks beat the Bobcats 105 to 98, 95 to 91 respectively.

The worst loss for the Bobcats was G3. Chen Xiao made 16 of 24 and scored 40 points. However, the other players of the Bobcats were like sleepwalking under the impact of the Mavericks, and were stole 11 times by the Mavericks, except for Chen Xiao. , the others made 16 turnovers in a game, except for Chen Xiao, who made 5 of 23 three-pointers.

The other members of the G3 Bobcats played such a dish, which also allowed the Mavericks to frantically attack Chen Xiao in g4. Chandler and Tony Allen were almost 'inseparable' to Chen Xiao, forcing Chen Xiao to pass the basketball in his hand. go out.

Chen Xiao passed a lot of **** in this game, but apart from Stoudemire, who scored 20 points in 8 of 19 games, none of the other Bobcats players scored in double figures.

Of course, Jordan was blown away by Jordan in the game of G4, and the defensive attitude of the Bobcats players was found, but after the offensive state was loosened, it was difficult to tighten up.

Just like Deng Ge during the 2012 finals in history, Deng Ge was lost in Miami's **** and fat buttocks. He wanted to get his state back, but found that he could no longer keep up with his opponent's rhythm.

The more fighting the Mavericks, the more high-spirited, and you need to find a new state.

Especially because the Bobcats fans ridiculed the driver, the treatment of the Bobcats players in Dallas was very bad, whether in the hotel or the stadium, they all encountered great difficulties.

Although the Bobcats have won 2 championships in history, apart from Chen Xiao and O'Neal Kidd, Stoudemire has no championship, Curry, Cousins, Hibbert, DeRozan, Jimmy Butler, Big Lopez and other important Bobcats rotation players are young.

These off-field factors put a lot of pressure on them.

Therefore, after the Bobcats continued to lose after g4 on June 7, many experts said that the Bobcats looked like they were about to collapse.

According to the current state of the Bobcats players, it is very difficult to win g5 on the road. If Tianwangshan loses, even if the two games back at home are at home, the Bobcats may not be able to stop the calf, who is now mad and smashed.

Why do you say that?

Take the Mavericks' backup sixth man, Terry, who scored 11 of 16 points in G3 and scored 27 points, while in G4, Grant Hill scored 10 of 15 points with 26 points.

Every game the Mavericks now have, a role player suddenly explodes.

Fans who know the NBA know that the current Mavericks are already in a state of pressing the gourd, and they can't press it no matter what.

It is precisely because of this situation that after the G4 game, the major American media's predictions for the finals have undergone a shocking reversal, and the experts who supported the Mavericks to win the championship have even completed a major reversal in numbers.

Even before the start of the finals, Yang Huahua, who was clamoring for the Mavericks to kneel for sure, and 100% kneeling, has been scolded by domestic fans for trembling and dare not speak back.

In short, in such a public opinion environment, fans who support the Bobcats have become very anxious at this time.

And even the fans are so anxious, which shows what kind of situation the players are in.

The transition from great joy to great sadness is not something everyone can handle.

It is human nature to handle it poorly, so after losing two consecutive games, neither Chen Xiao nor Jordan blamed their teammates and team.

It's not that they don't work hard, g3 they really underestimate the enemy, and they should be scolded if they lose, and g4, they really showed their attitude, and the driver was prevented by them as 6 out of 19 efficiency. Of course, because of their defense efforts, they also gave The driver's 10 free throws in this game still allowed the driver to score 22 points.

But in any case, the Bobcats players have tightened up now, and they have already known the consequences of their underestimation of the enemy. At the same time, they have also worked hard. However, if they can't get back to their previous super offensive state, they really can't get it back. Yes, the status has changed, and it is indeed gone forever.

In this case, the experienced Jordan of course knew that it would be useless to scold you again.

If beating and scolding were useful, Barnes of the 16-year-old Warriors would not have been shorted by three-pointers.

It's not that he doesn't want to shoot, it's that he really can't make it.

Barnes shouldn't be scolded.

What should really be scolded is the Thunder's Roberson this year. He didn't dare to shoot, and the Bobcats, although the player's offensive state was sloppy, really did not have such a situation as Roberson.

Now the player is such a player. As a coach, since he cannot find a breakthrough from the player, he can only test his own employment.

The only way to start is to reallocate resources.

On June 9, 2011, the G5 finals between the Bobcats and the Mavericks continued to be held in Dallas. Because the score between the two teams in front was 2 to 2, this game was particularly important.

Basically, it can be said that if the Bobcats win, the Bobcats will definitely win the championship. The next two games are at home, and they lead 3-2 and cannot be overturned.

And if the Mavericks win this game, even if the Mavericks are away in the next two games, with the current morale and state of the Mavericks players, the possibility of fighting the next two games is very high.

So, for both teams, this game is a must-win game.

Of course, as far as the situation of this game is concerned, it is definitely more favorable to the Mavericks.

The Mavericks are playing at home, and they are in good shape. The public opinion is also on their side.

This is also the reason why the experts reversed their predictions. From the current point of view, there is really not much chance of the Mavericks losing in this game.

On the other side, the Bobcats are going to play this game with a desperate attitude.

After the two teams warmed up in a quiet atmosphere before the game, the starters of the two teams also walked to the court.

On the Mavericks side, the starting lineup is definitely unchanged, Chandler, Randolph, driver, Tony Allen, Devin Harris.

On the Bobcats side, it is very unexpected that the starters have undergone huge changes.

O'Neal, Chen Xiao, Shane, Kidd, Ross.

Stoudemire and Granger, the two starters in the previous game, were taken down.

Stoudemire really played very badly this time in the finals. The regular season hit rate exceeded 59%, and in the first three rounds of the playoffs, the hit rate was also 52%, but in the four games of the finals, Stoudemire's hit rate was only left. down a mere 38%.

It's hard for you to say whether it's a state reason or a mentality reason or the reason why Zach Randolph is too consumed on the defensive end.

And Granger, as the main defender of the driver in the finals, was really exhausted on the defensive end, not physically tired, but mentally tired. Artest defended the driver for four games and his mentality collapsed. Five elbowed Barea.

The direct manifestation of Granger's mental breakdown is that the offense is a mess.

The Bobcats g3 and g4 played so poorly, Granger and Stoudemire were primarily responsible for the offense.

At g4, Granger was put directly on the outside.

Therefore, since both of them have worked hard, but there is really no way to get back to their previous offensive state, Jordan can only make a substitution.

Since Chen Xiao was always pinched at the shooting guard position and gave the ball to Stoudemire, and Stoudemire was not in good condition except that he couldn't move his teammates with his own offense, then put Chen Xiao on the inside.

If you defend Randolph, you can't defend. Let's attack. If you dare to flank Chen Xiao again, the target of Chen Xiao's ball is not Stoudemire, but O'Neal.

As for Shane changing for Granger, although Shane's effect on defending the driver is average, Shane's mentality is much better than Granger's. , Shane should be able to hit some, right?

Jordan didn't have high expectations either, as long as he could shoot 35 percent from open 3-pointers, he was satisfied.

Seeing that in such a crucial game, Jordan actually dared to make such a change, to be honest, Barkley at the scene was surprised and amazed.

Let's not talk about whether this evolution is a success or a failure. At the very least, Jordan dares to change. In fact, most NBA coaches do not dare to overthrow and rebuild their teams like Jordan in such a critical game.

"Although Coach Michael's technical and tactical abilities have always been thorny, his adaptability has always been one of the best!"

After Barkley finished speaking with emotion, Kenny Smith next to him nodded and said yes, is it more important for a head coach to have strong technical and tactical ability or on-the-spot command?

This has always been a big problem, and from the results, a coach with strong on-the-spot command in the NBA is more likely to succeed than a coach with strong technical and tactical skills.

Just when Barkley and Kenny Smith were discussing the Bobcats' evolution in this game, the live broadcast camera scanned Stoudemire and Granger who were sitting on the sidelines. Granger's face was sinking, as if nothing , while Xiao Si's face was filled with displeasure and resentment that could not be concealed.

He didn't dare to confront Jordan directly, but he still had the courage to stare at Jordan behind his back.

Of course, this series has already been played to this extent, and Jordan doesn't care that much.

On the court, the game has begun, Tyson Chandler jumped the first attack again for the Mavericks, and Devin Harris's advance was still very slow.

Although the Mavericks did not calculate that the Bobcats would make such a change in this game, it did not prevent the Mavericks' players from making their own judgments on the field.

Chen Xiao changed Stoudemire and let Randolph try Chen Xiao's quality under the basket.

For the team's style of play, Randolph frowned and followed suit.

As Chen Xiao's former teammate, Randolph certainly knew Chen Xiao very well.

Chen Xiao's strength is very strong, especially his upper body strength.

But because he doesn't have a big butt, he's the size of an admiral, and he really suffers when defending a big **** inside back.

But, even so, except for a few people such as Olajuwon, who would dare to bully the general with a big butt?

Chen Xiao's defensive backside is a weakness, but it doesn't mean that others are willing to hit Chen Xiao like this.

Chen Xiao's hands are too fast, and the chipping is too strong. If you don't finish the attack quickly, but sit there, it is very likely that Chen Xiao will judge the attacking intention, and will be chipped or attacked by Chen Xiao. steal.

It is precisely because of enough understanding of Chen Xiao.

So Randolph did not sit down, but sat down for a while. After sitting a little space, he immediately turned around and tiptoed back and threw the ball in his hand.

The turn around and back at the waist at the basket is Randolph's stunt.

A swipe!

2 to 0!

Although Chen Xiao wanted to be sealed, after being seated by Randolph, he really couldn't jump up immediately.

I have to say that Randolph's arsenal is really large, and fighting Xiaosi and Chen Xiao are completely different styles.

After coming to the Mavericks, his offense has become more reasonable.

Looking back, it was the Bobcats' turn to attack. The first attack of the Bobcats was also the position, and it was also the position of the power forward.

Chen Xiao caught Randolph behind him on the right side of the paint area and received a pass from Kidd. Noticing that the Mavericks were not double-teaming, he turned and retreated decisively, and a change of direction shook Randolph away. , pulls the ball to the right, hits a mid-range pullback jumper.

2 to 2!

Both teams scored the first offense.

And no one can defend anyone~www.NovelMTL.com~ In this game, the offensive state of the players of the two teams has finally returned! "

Looking at the Bobcats and Mavericks on the court, the audience on the sideline was very excited.

They already had a hunch that this game was another fairy fight!

However, the Mavericks coach Jr. Johnson frowned a little on the sidelines.

The Bobcats are back on offense, which is not what they want.

No, it's not that the Bobcats are back on offense.

It was him who carried the Lynx's offense on his shoulders!

This game he wants to...

"stale……"

Little General Johnson's heart twitched when he thought of this.
