One Guard

Genius remembers this site address in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Before the start of the game, LeBron James’ eyes had not been on the championship pennant hanging from the dome of the American Airlines Center Arena. Move away. If it weren't for the fact that his performance in the Finals was too bad last season, this pennant might belong to Miami.

Averaging 17 points per game, for James, last season's Finals was simply a stain in his career. After a summer of training and line-up, James is ready to move, ready to take the O'Brien Cup back in the new season!

As a result, the strong "humanoid tank" withdrew his gaze, and his eyes fell on the five players in the white Mavericks jerseys opposite.

Today, it is bound to let you know the scorching anger after the Big Three became angry! To win the O'Brien Cup, it started with Dallas, which caused them to fail!

In terms of starting, the Heat still used the lineup from last season. The Big Three naturally continue to play, and the center and point guard are still held by Joe Anthony and Chalmers respectively.

For the Mavericks, the starting positions of Yiyang, Nowitzki and Marion can't be beaten. Newly joined the team, Carter replaced Stevenson as the starting second position, and the return of Brandon Haywood has become the new generation of guardians of the Dallas penalty area.

It seems that the Mavericks' lineup does not seem to be much weaker. Although Haywood is not as good as Chandler on the whole, but the low defense and blocking ability is also quite good. The fans who watched the game at home screamed frantically. They all hoped that the Mavericks could once again press the Big Three on the ground and rub them hard.

But with the first goal in the opening game, LeBron James let the Mavericks fans who watched the match at home shut their mouths.

After Joe Anthony won the first possession for the Heat, James reached out for the ball and ran all the way to the Mavericks halftime. Facing Marion's defense, James used a simple change of direction to break through and break into the penalty area.

After losing Stevenson, a defensive strength that could limit James, the 33-year-old Marion can hardly resist James' full impact.

Although only one season has passed, most competitive sports athletes may show a greater decline in their competitive state after the age of 30. Marion now has experienced his final peak and entered the withering phase. It is difficult for him to contend with James, even if the Heat 6 was once his own defeat.

James leaned on Marion into the penalty area, but the Mavericks fans didn't seem to panic. In the penalty area, there is also Brandon Haywood, a defensive center with outstanding athletic ability squatting!

However, maybe the Mavericks fans are too confident in Haywood. Or, they underestimated the importance of Chandler in the Mavericks.

Although Chandler averaged 10.1 points and 9.4 rebounds per game last season, the defensive efficiency of the "boxing champion" ranked first in the team. In this offensive-oriented Mavericks team, Chandler It is their best defense on the defensive end, and his excellent rebound control ability is also a guarantee for the Mavericks outside shooters to dare to take a lot of shots in the game. Even the team boss Nowitzki once praised: "Chandler is the MVP of this team."

There is only Brandon Haywood now, and he simply cannot fill the vacancy left by Chandler after he left.

I saw that James directly confronted Haywood after driving Marion and forcibly attacked the frame. Although Haywood tried his best to block, he was still a thousand miles away from completing the cover.

In the air, Heywood couldn't make James completely lose his balance. Instead, James' huge impact made Heywood a little overwhelmed.

The two clashed violently, but the referee blew his whistle. At the moment when the whistle stopped, the basketball thrown by James hollowed into the net.

"Haha! Good job!" On the commentary stage, O'Neill waved his arm excitedly. The Mavericks fans in the stands held their heads in pain one by one.

As soon as James, who was eager for revenge, came up, he got a chance to hit a three-pointer!

On the free throw line, James took two big breaths, letting his breath calm down. Subsequently, the "little emperor" made a steady free throw. As soon as the game opened, LeBron gave the Mavericks a disarm.

Although it was three points behind at the beginning, the Mavericks fans quickly reorganized the cheer. Next, the Mavericks will attack, and they all want to see how strong Yiyang has become after a summer of training.

Facing Chalmers' defense, Yiyang did not feel much pressure. As soon as his toes stepped on the three-point line, he dropped the ball directly into the penalty area and hit Nowitzki.

Fans still vividly remember Nowitzki's superb performance against Bosh during the finals last season. So as soon as Dirk holds the ball, not only the fans, but even Bosh feels his heartbeat is accelerating.

Nowitzki leaned on Bosh and pushed back two steps, seeming to be going to play alone. However, after successfully containing the defense, Nowitzki passed the ball to the left horn. There, Yiyang has opened his hands and is ready to catch the ball!

Chalmers knew that Yiyang was not a defender who was good at shooting three-pointers. He didn't directly press forward when he was smart. Instead, he took two steps with Yiyang and opened his arms, intending to limit Yiyang's breakthrough.

However, after receiving the basketball, Yiyang pulled up and shot without any hesitation. This kind of decisiveness and confidence in getting open three-pointers has only been seen in shooters in the past by Chalmers. But Yiyang, he has nothing to do with the word "sagittarius" at all!

Chris Brickley, the young trainer who was watching the live game, smiled. This season, you'd better not give Yiyang too much space outside the three-point line. Otherwise, it will pay a heavy price.

"Swipe!" The basketball entered the net precisely, setting off a "white wave". After Yiyang scored, he raised his arm and compared three fingers. Chalmers looked dumbfounded, how did he score this goal?

"Hahaha, have you seen Shaq! This year's also is stronger than last season! Three-pointers are now a conventional weapon for him!" Barkley laughed excitedly, in his opinion , The Mavericks now fully have the strength to continue to compete with the Heat.

Although at the beginning of the game, James and Yiyang both made strong statements and did not want to give up victory. But the basketball game is always a 48-minute competition. Whether a team can maintain a good momentum is the key to victory.

After Yiyang's exit, Terry and Odom made their debut for the highly anticipated "strongest bench combination". Originally, everyone was full of expectations for the bench firepower led by these two guys. But after playing, the bench scoring more dominantly became the Heat.

The Heat’s bench players do not have outstanding personal abilities, but their close cooperation and scattered attack points make the Mavericks unable to grasp the defensive focus.

James Jones just hit a three-pointer, and in the next round, Norris Cole caught the Mavericks by surprise with a beautiful breakthrough.

And Terry and Odom, the two major attack points, fell into a state of fighting alone. Terry doesn't like to pass the ball to Odom, and Odom is even more incompatible with the Mavericks system.

In the first 3 shots, Odom's shots all missed the target. Without Odom's restraint, Terry, who is strictly guarded against unable to get the shooting space, would also be difficult to make a difference.

As for the old Kidd, now he can no longer use his scoring ability to force the team forward.

Originally, when Yiyang and Nowitzki were on the court, the Mavericks were not too passive on the court. Once Ke Yiyang and Nowitzki left the field, the Heat completely controlled the situation.

After the game, Odom's performance continued to decline. Not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end, this guy also "watched" the opposing player's successful attack several times.

"What the **** is he doing!? Doesn't Lamar know that the regular season war has rekindled?" Even Barkley, who has always supported the Mavericks, can't stand Odom's performance.

Losing Chandler's asylum, James and Wade both broke through frequently. The impact brought by the two superstars is the first time Yiyang feels so terrifying. Now Carlisle and Mavericks fans must miss Chandler very much. If that guy is still there, James and Wade will not be able to hit the basket so unscrupulously.

Yiyang's wonderful passes and independent scores failed to suppress the firepower of the Big Three. Nowitzki's precise shooting failed to allow the Mavericks to regain control of the game.

In the third quarter, James, Wade and Battier fired collectively from outside the three-point line. Unfortunately, these three guys can really shoot the ball today.

A three-pointer rain of 5 of 7 shots seems to have extinguished the fierce fighting in the American Airlines Center Arena. With a 13-point disadvantage, the Mavericks entered the final quarter.

At the moment of the decisive battle, Yiyang scored two consecutive three-pointers outside the three-point line. But apart from Nowitzki, there is no player around Yiyang who can stand up to help the team break the deadlock.

Terry is completely restrained, Odom's state is like sleepwalking. Marion can't match James at all, and Carter, who has passed his peak, can't turn the tide on the offensive end.

In the last 20 seconds of the game, when James once again broke through the penalty zone and scored a three-pointer on Haywood, the Mavericks had fallen behind the Heat by 8 points. At this time, Carlisle has only one timeout left, and the failure of the opener is a foregone conclusion!

Although Yiyang fouled Wade with a beautiful breakthrough and reached a three-pointer to help the Mavericks narrow the gap, there was not much time left. In the end, the Mavericks swallowed the defeat 99-104. The Heat used 57% of their exaggerated three-pointers and a high end rate at the basket to get revenge!

After the game, James hammered his chest with a grim expression. Wade leaped high in excitement, swinging his fists vigorously in the air. The revenge for losing the championship, they finally have to avenge!

Yiyang, who scored 28 points and 9 assists and made 5 of 7 3-pointers, had no choice but to stand in the center of the court and shook his head. Although his stats are very good, he did have a better performance than last season. But no victory, no matter how beautiful personal data, what is the point?

After losing the opener, reporters naturally asked Yiyang many sharp questions at the subsequent press conference.

The expressionless Yiyang did not intend to complain in front of the media, he just told everyone. "Bad times will always pass."

After the game ended, the audience only made 1 of 7 shots, only 2 points and 1 rebound in 23 minutes of the game. Odom, who surprised everyone, but casually changed his clothes and left the locker room. It is said that He has a date with a woman tonight. Failure or victory does not seem to matter to him at all.

Seeing this scene, even Yiyang felt very angry. It's just that he controlled his fist and told himself in his heart: "Everything will be good, everything will be good..."

December 26, the day after the start of the new NBA season. The Mavericks must be at home, back to back against the Denver Nuggets. This year's shrinking season is very dense, and back-to-back will be commonplace for the players. But Yiyang did not reject, he was very excited, hoping to win the first victory for the team in today's game.

However, the day after the start of the regular season, Odom was late in training. When he came to the training ground, this guy was even drunk. Needless to say, I also know that I must have been playing in the nightclub yesterday.

Although Carlisle gave Odom a $5,000 fine and made severe criticisms in accordance with the team's regulations, this did not save Odom's subsequent disastrous performance in the game.

In the eyes of some people, basketball is life, and in the eyes of some people, basketball is just a playmate when boring. Odom, obviously belongs to the latter.

"Lamar Odom received a wonderful pass from Yi, and he got an open three-pointer! If this ball is made, the Mavericks struggling in the mud will lead the score!" Barkley squeezed his fists tightly. , However, as soon as Odom shot, he knew that the ball was nothing!

The person who was ranked second only to Yiyang in the ranking of the best sixth man last year, softly threw the ball out. The basketball was short, wiping the front of the rim, and fell directly into the hands of the Brazilian center NENE of the Nuggets.

Subsequently, the Brazilian made a long pass from the backcourt and assisted Ty Lawson, who had already activated the fast break. Yiyang gritted his teeth, but still did not let out the fire. Missed shots are also yang understandable. But an unbelievable shot in the face of a big empty seat~www.novelmtl.com~ Yiyang is out of anger.

Odom is not only irresponsible for himself, but also completely irresponsible for the team. This is already the 9th time he missed a field goal today. So far in the game, Odom has made 10 shots and only hit one goal. The goal he scored was a pass from Yiyang that he received from the basket and succeeded in the sky basket. The rest of the shots, without exception, all strike iron.

Originally the Mavericks and the Nuggets played inextricably, but Odom's ability to squander opportunities gave the Nuggets a chance to open the score.

In the end, the Nuggets relied on Odom's "excellent" performance in the away game to narrowly defeat the defending champion Mavericks 115-112. Barkley even bluntly said after the game that the best player of the game should be awarded to Odom. Without this "Best Sixth Man", the Nuggets could not win at all!

After two consecutive defeats, after the start of the new season, everything seems to be very different from what was expected. As soon as the glorious Dallas Mavericks came up, they fell directly into the trough.

After the game, Yiyang did not accept any interviews from reporters, and even Yiyang did not answer Mou Ran's questions. The young Dallas No. 1 walked straight back to the locker room, looking in a terrible mood.

In Game 3 of the regular season, the Mavericks are about to face the more mature Oklahoma City Thunder on the road. There is no doubt that this will be another difficult opponent.

"I believe that if the Mavericks continue in this state, it will not be a problem to get a three-game losing streak!" After the game, O'Neal has even made predictions about the outcome of the next game.

After returning to the locker room, Yiyang could no longer restrain the anger in his heart. He slammed Odom's cabinet with a punch, denting the locker that originally belonged to Barea.

Fortunately, Odom has not yet returned to the locker room, otherwise the outbreak of a locker room scandal will be inevitable.
