One Guard

"The referee actually blew a defensive foul! This means that Lamar Odom is about to stand on the free throw line, and three free throws!" Even Mike Brin, the experienced commentator, opened himself in surprise. With both hands, he saw a lot of ultra-long-range buzzer shots before halftime. But it was the first time Mike Brin encountered a foul shooting in the half court.

In the stands, cheers and boos were intertwined. The Lakers fans cheered, and the Mavericks fans naturally gave the referee the dirtiest vocabulary they could think of.

The referee ignored the boos from the fans, but signaled Odom to go on the line and make a free throw. He himself is going to the basket and picking up the basketball on the ground.

Just as the referee was walking to the basket, a dark figure suddenly stood in front of him. Fortunately, the referee responded in a timely manner, so he didn't bump into it.

The referee looked up, and Yiyang was staring at himself.

"It was obviously an offensive foul just now!" Yiyang didn't yell, his tone of voice was rather cold. But this kind of cold makes the back spine chill.

"Please give in!" The referee doesn't want to argue with Yiyang. If a superstar like Kobe or James comes to argue with himself, he may still say something to the other party. But a rookie? He really doesn't want to waste time with a rookie.

"I said, didn't you see that I was standing still? It was a dribbling and hitting a person!" Yiyang's voice became louder. People usually think that the taciturn Yiyang has no temper. It's just because they haven't seen Yiyang lose his temper. If Yiyang had no temper, he would not be expelled from the school team for beating his teammates in high school.

"I'll say it again, please give in!" Although the height is only up to Yiyang's chin, the referee is not weak in momentum.

"I ask you to take a look at the replay..." This time, before Yiyang finished speaking, he was suddenly dragged back by someone.

It was Nowitzki. He saw Yiyang arguing with the referee and rushed to separate the two.

The referee raised his hand and was about to make a "t" move on the technical stage, but Nowitzki stopped him.

"Hey, it's not guilty of giving a technical foul! You have already given me one, there is no need to give him one." Nowitzki pressed the referee's hand and refused to let it go for a long time.

Nowitzki has worked hard in the league for so many years and has always had a good reputation. The referee didn't want to tear his face with Dirk, so he nodded gently.

"I'll give you a face, Dirk. But if he has another time, I promise, I will punish him severely!" After speaking, the referee picked up the basketball and motioned to Odom to come over for a free throw.

Yiyang on the side was still a bit aggrieved, but Nowitzki immediately came over and patted him on the shoulder.

"This is the NBA. The game is not necessarily fair. Hey, relax, we'll be back in the second half."

After listening to Nowitzki's words, Yiyang was only willing to stand on the designated position. Even if he is veteran on the court, Yiyang is still a young man...

Odom did not waste the "gift" the referee gave him. He made all three shots from the free throw line. The second-ranked guy in the best sixth-man selection, at the last minute, helped the Lakers expand their lead.

"53 to 44. Because of Odom's three free throws at the end, the Dallas Mavericks are 9 points behind the defending champion Lakers after halftime! Kevin, what do you think of the defensive foul at the end? "

"It's a ball that can be blown or not, but the referee doesn't plan to show mercy. In the second quarter, the two sides have more and more physical contact and more and more moves. I think the referee also wants to use this The way to tell all players, don’t overdo it. He did it just to control the game."

The discussion between Mike Brin and Kevin Harlan brought an end to the matchup between the two sides in the first half of the game.

9 points difference, only 1 point, the Lakers can widen the gap to double digits.

After returning to the locker room, the Lakers players were very excited. They are eager to start the second half of the game, and then they can widen the gap in one fell swoop.

In the home team's locker room, the emotions of the players are not so high.

Kobe was unstoppable on the court today, Nowitzki had a technical foul, and Yiyang was used by Odom at the last moment. This series of things made everyone feel a little aggrieved.

Carlisle also looked helpless, pacing back and forth in the locker room. Look at this, look at that again, but haven't spoken for a long time.

The players lowered their heads one by one, and their morale was reduced to the extreme.

"I said..." Carlisle, who had been pacing back and forth for a long time, finally spoke. He stopped and looked at the players, who also looked up at him. "Why are you so downhearted? Actually, it's not because we made a mistake that the situation turned into this way, but because the opponent's offense was so smooth, and the luck was really good..."

"Hey, guys, our goal is a championship! Since the first game of the playoffs, no one **** likes us! Because everyone thinks we will lose the chain at a critical moment, everyone thinks we play No hard fight! Now, we are only behind by 9 points, 9 points! The team that wants to win the championship will not be frustrated because it is 9 points behind! If this is the case, then we will never succeed in our life! If this is the case If so, what the media said is the truth! Keep up your spirits, we start from defense in the second half of the game, and don’t give the Lakers an open shot! Hold on! Let the hardest time pass, and we will definitely be able to reverse the game. of!"

Carlisle has just been thinking about why the Mavericks have a good record in the regular season every year, and they are always eliminated in the playoffs. Even, once became the background board for the Warriors to stage the black eight miracle.

Is the players not strong enough, or the team's overall tactics are not good?

No, the Mavericks players are good enough and they can execute their tactics.

What the Mavericks lack is a kind of spirit! That kind of tough attitude that never gives up, dares to say "no" to a strong enemy, dares to challenge all authority, and despise everything. To put it bluntly, what the Mavericks lack is a "championship."

"The group of **** from Los Angeles must be thinking how big the point difference will be in the second half of the game! Go on the court and tell them with your inseparable defense, don't want to take the victory from here!" Carlisle waved his fist. The depressive atmosphere in the dressing room seemed to be broken by Carlisle in one fell swoop.

"The boss is right! We still have half of the game to play! They can lead us by nine points at half of the game, why can't we do it!? We all work hard, and the second half will let the Los Angeles people see and see us. In the regular season, didn’t we kill them twice!? Let’s work hard together, it will definitely work!” Nowitzki suddenly stood up. With the encouragement of the star, other people’s inner talents It was completely boiling.

Yiyang, who was aggrieved at the end of the first half, was naturally completely ignited by Carlisle and Nowitzki's remarks. He couldn't help clenching his fists, and yelled at everyone.

The staff outside the player’s aisle didn’t know what was going on, because the shouts from the destined locker room seemed to be louder than those from the stadium...

※※※

After the start of the second half, the Lakers really attacked fiercely. As soon as he played, Bynum blocked Chandler's layup, which was regarded as revenge for being blocked and dunked by the "Boxer" in the first half of the game.

After that, Kobe made a three-pointer. Suddenly, the point difference on the field became 12 points, and all the Mavericks fans hugged their heads in annoyance.

"Do you think what you said during the intermission will be useful?" On the bench, Stotts was already a little fidgeted.

"I believe them, buddy. It doesn't matter, time is still long." Carlisle finished, got up from the bench and stood on the sidelines.

Subsequently, Yiyang rushed through Fischer on the right side of the basket with a strong speed, and made a jump shot with a sudden stop. But his mid-range shot is still an iron. Yiyang has completely got rid of Fischer, but he unexpectedly made up the defense in time for Kobe.

After Yiyang lost his vote, Kobe also assisted Gasol on the offensive end and dunked with both hands. 14 points difference, the pace of the game seems to have been completely controlled by the Lakers.

"The Mavericks seem to be'reappearing yesterday' again. Their habitual collapse in the playoffs allowed the Lakers to quickly open the score. It is not surprising that the Lakers will expand the point difference to 20 points if it continues like this. Could it be that the Dallas Mavericks will really be defeated?" Seeing Gasol dunk successfully, Mike Brin shook his head. He originally expected the Mavericks to counterattack in the third quarter, but now it seems that nothing has changed.

"Hey! Slow down, don't be impatient! Our offensive purpose is too strong, next time we conduct a few more transmissions, tear their defense line apart!" Nowitzki picked up the basketball from under the basket, and then yelled at everyone.

Seeing this scene, Carlisle's hanging heart was let go. If it were the past few seasons, the Mavericks might collapse to the end. But today, Carlisle can see that his team has not collapsed!

"Stay steady! We still have time, hold on!" Carlisle yelled again after Yiyang took possession of the ball halfway through.

Yiyang didn't want to lose, and everyone on the court didn't want to lose. Therefore, they are not afraid of the 14-point difference, and they are not afraid of playing the crazy state of Kobe. At the moment, they just want to knock their opponents to the ground!

Yiyang got the ball beyond the three-point line, without hesitation, he immediately dropped the ball inside.

Gasol immediately clung to Dirk, and at the same time, Bynum changed his position and would double-team at any time.

After receiving the ball, Dirk didn't rush to do it alone, but patiently passed the ball to Stevenson.

Even if Stevenson's three-point shooting is not accurate, but Kobe still sticks very tightly and does not give the Mavericks any chance of scoring.

Seeing this, Stevenson passed the ball to Yiyang, who was standing at the top of the arc outside the three-point line, and Yiyang reorganized the attack.

Yiyang looked at the timer on the backboard and then watched the Lakers' defense. I have to admit that the defending champion's defense is really perfect. It is impossible to find a gap simply by passing the ball.

So Yiyang Chong Nowitzki winked ~www.novelmtl.com~ and dropped the ball into the penalty area again. After passing the ball, Yiyang immediately ran!

Everyone thinks that Yiyang's running is to find open points, but in fact, Yiyang is to make ball-free pick-and-rolls for his teammates.

Seeing Marion suddenly start, Artest this beast immediately moved horizontally. But as soon as I walked together, I ran into Yiyang full of emotions.

Fischer also didn't expect that a defender from Yiyang would actually make an off-the-ball pick and roll for his teammates, so the change of defense was not timely.

Marion ran to the front of the basket and got a fleeting opportunity. Nowitzki's pass happened to arrive, and Marion "pushed" the basketball out with a weird posture. Fischer seemed so powerless to mend the disturbance.

Everyone is staring at the basketball, and all Mavericks fans are looking forward to the basketball falling into the net.

The basketball hit the neck of the basket first, and Bynum and Chandler both jumped high, ready to fight for rebounds.

However, after the basketball fell again, it was impartial and just fell into the net!

"A three-pointer! The Mavericks finally scored. Although they are 14 points behind, we saw that the Mavericks were very patient and not impatient just now! With a beautiful cooperation, let us see if the Dallas Mavericks will gain this momentum. keep it up!"

On the court, Marion and Yiyang lightly high-five. After that, they all devoted themselves to the defense.

"I think today, the Mavericks players refuse to collapse!" Watching the Mavericks serious attitude, Mike Brin said with a smile.
