One Guard

Yiyang looked up and looked at the big screen at the scene. There were only 40 seconds left in the game. If there is anything he didn't do well today, it is to let the "French Sports Car" score too many points.

Fortunately, there is still room for recovery. The last 40 seconds belonged to the Dallas Mavericks' last offense. Of course, it is also the offense that is likely to influence the outcome of the entire game.

"The Mavericks are only 40 seconds away from their 13th game winning streak. After 40 seconds, it depends on Tony Parker's performance!" On the commentary stage, Mike Brin stared at the court intently, for fear of missing anything. detail.

Today is January 8, 24 hours after the Mavericks massacred the Los Angeles Lakers at home, they ushered in an opponent several times stronger than the Lakers. This season is considered the biggest obstacle to the Mavericks from entering the Finals, the San Antonio Spurs. !

In the previous match between the two sides, Yiyang scored 53 points in the ATT Center and helped the Mavericks defeat the Spurs with a huge advantage of 106 to 81. And that game happened to be the beginning of the Mavericks' 12-game winning streak.

However, it turns out that not every game will happen when the Spurs slash 50+ points. In today's game, the Spurs' defense was very good, and Yiyang was blocked everywhere. Fortunately, Yiyang, who played reasonably well, has so far scored 28 points with 66.7% and 10 of 15 shooting.

Today, Yiyang's most dissatisfaction with his performance is that he also allowed Parker to score 21 points.

In this game, the Spurs were extremely patient on the offensive end. Spurs players would definitely not make a move without a chance! Parker borrowed two or three off-the-ball pick-and-rolls and then made a shot, and today it appeared more than once or twice.

Yiyang's defense is still serious, but in the face of a team like the Spurs, you are actually not defending Parker alone, but the entire Spurs team.

At the end of the half-time, the two sides tied the score. But in the third quarter, the Spurs almost won the victory directly.

Italian defender Marc Belinelli made 4 of 6 3-pointers in a single quarter, giving the Spurs a huge lead. Fortunately, the Mavericks stabilized their position and pursued the score with difficulty under the leadership of Yiyang.

Until two minutes before the end of the fourth quarter, the Mavericks finally tied the score. With 40 seconds left before the game will end, the Mavericks temporarily lead by 3 points.

40 seconds to lead by 3 points, this is actually a big lead. However, Yiyang, who is holding the ball outside the three-point line, did not dare to slack off, because the Spurs absolutely have the ability to change the result of the game in the last 40 seconds!

"Also delaying time outside the three-point line, it seems to be full of 24 seconds of offense. People say that the Spurs will let the Mavericks tie the 17-game winning streak to the end. But today the Mavericks' tenacious performance Judging from it, they do not agree with such remarks."

When Mike Brin finished saying this, the 24-second offense will be over with only 10 seconds left. Yiyang finally moved, he began to slowly move forward, Parker opened his arms, and under the dual effects of tension and exhaustion, the Frenchman's sweat had fallen to the ground along the tip of his chin.

Parker has not forgotten the lesson that he was thrown to the ground by Yiyang's retreat last time. In the face of a guy like Yiyang, seeing is not necessarily believing. Be careful, then be careful!

Yiyang's body with a low center of gravity suddenly joined together, holding the ball in his left hand, as if about to break through to the left.

Parker didn't dare to act rashly. If it was easily blocked, it would only be easily passed by Yiyang!

This time, however, Parker was clever but was mistaken by cleverness. Yiyang knew that Parker must have considered his movements very complicated, but in fact, Yiyang really just wanted to use this simple movement to break through to the left.

The soles of Yiyang's feet pushed the ground hard, and the good friction between Yiyang's first generation boots and the floor and the lightweight body of the shoe made him plunge into the inner line like a falling arrow.

Seeing that Yiyang broke through Parker, Duncan and Splitter immediately reclaimed the basket. Duncan stood slightly forward, beware of Yiyang's sudden stop jumper. The Splitter's position is slightly rearward, and the goal is naturally to protect the rim.

Yiyang jumped directly after stepping into the three-second zone. He raised the basketball high as if he was going to layup directly!

Duncan has already rushed towards Yiyang, Yiyang's attack is too simple, so simple that Duncan can complete the block with just one hand. But Duncan is still worried, this guy, it's impossible to play so simple!

It's really impossible. Yiyang's breakthrough is just a feint, playing a role in attracting defensive attention. When Duncan was about to touch the basketball in Yiyang's hands, Yiyang passed it back.

Nowitzki was unmarked at the mid-range position. He received the basketball without hesitation and took the shot calmly when only 2 seconds left on the offensive time.

Although Nowitzki has "retired to the second line", he is still the most critical player in this league. When Yiyang passed the ball to his hand, Dirk's heartbeat did not even increase.

He is like on the training ground, aiming at the basket, then pressing his wrist and finger. After that, quietly waiting for the appearance of this wonderful sound.

"brush". The net rolls, the basketball hits, and the electronic buzzer sounds. The fans in the American Airlines Center Arena all stood up and dedicated their applause to Nowitzki, the hero who dedicated everything to the Mavericks.

"A beautiful breakthrough and score, this cooperation and Dirk even if there is a one-second error, it will cause the 24-second offensive time to time out. But they did not make a mistake, but accurately controlled everything!"

Although, at this time, there are still 20 seconds left for the Spurs' offensive time. But 20 seconds to chase 5 minutes, this is still very difficult.

"Good spread, kid, you lied to them all!" After the goal, Nowitzki took the initiative to high-five with Yiyang. If there is no Yiyang pass, there will be no steady shooting at the critical moment.

In fact, the key shot Yiyang chose to pass just now was not to "snap the pot", but to execute tactics strictly in accordance with Carlisle's arrangement. Carlisle knows exactly who Popovich is. Judging from the Spurs' defense just now, he has set a net for Yiyang. Even if Yiyang shoots, it is difficult to score a goal under the interference of Duncan and Splitter.

As a result, Carlisle simply handed over the shot of the key ball back to Nowitzki. Popovich, no matter how great he is, it is impossible to guess this.

The results showed that Carlisle's arrangement was quite correct. The Spurs have indeed focused their attention on Yiyang, and Yiyang's passing ability ensures that Nowitzki can shoot without interference.

From the tactical arrangement to the final execution, the Mavericks did everything seamlessly. After all, they were able to score 12 consecutive victories without luck.

After 20 seconds of the game, the Spurs naturally chose to shoot three-pointers. But unfortunately, Belinelli did not continue his fiery touch in the third quarter. Under the interference of Tony Allen's face, the Italian's three-pointer shot out. This strike of iron naturally shattered the hopes of the Spurs!

"The game is over, the game is over! Let us congratulate the Dallas Mavericks, they defeated their old enemy San Antonio Spurs for the second time this season. While achieving 13 consecutive victories, they also levelled the record for 17 consecutive victories The biggest obstacle! It's an incredible team. This year's Dallas Mavericks are just like the 0607 season, completely unstoppable!"

With Belinelli hitting a three-pointer, Popovich was unwilling to replace all the main players. He lost, losing to the Dallas Mavericks for the second time this season. What the old man has been worried about seems to be moving step by step towards reality.

In this year's playoffs, the Spurs must not meet the Mavericks!

98 to 93, Nowitzki's shot became the last goal of the game. After the game, Yiyang and Nowitzki hugged tightly. This game, let them find the kind of thrill of killing the Quartet three years ago.

Yiyang had 28 points, 12 assists, 5 rebounds, 1 block and 1 steal. His steady performance remained the same and did not make today the end of the Mavericks' winning streak.

Yiyang, who used the iron ring nailed on the broken plank as a baby in the stadium of the Wood District, may not have imagined that he could achieve such a great achievement in the NBA. But since the opportunity is here, you have to seize it!

"Also, do you think the Mavericks hope to break the best record in team history of 17 consecutive victories this season?" At the press conference after the game, the reporters' questions remained the same, nothing new.

But this time, Yiyang no longer kept silent about this record.

"17 consecutive victories? Maybe we can do more?" Yiyang's unsmiling expression didn't look like a joke at all. Now that the opportunity is here, why should it be limited to 17 consecutive victories?

As soon as this remark came out, most of the basketball world was shocked. Yiyang is always low-key to show people, why this time he speaks wildly?

"17 consecutive victories? Is it too simple to think too much!"

"There are no underdogs in the NBA. Anyone can come here. Quickly lower the arrogance of that Chinese!"

"I have to admit that it is indeed a bit overwhelming this time. Although the Mavericks played beautifully in the victory over the Spurs, winning a goal does not mean that he can stay and win all opponents!"

In the face of doubts from the outside world, Yiyang has long been accustomed to it. From the beginning of his rookie season to now becoming the MVP, Yiyang has been growing up amidst doubts. But people who question him usually have no good results.

After the victory over the Spurs, the Mavericks seemed to be stepping on the bottom of the accelerator, and they couldn't stop running all the way.

On January 10, the Mavericks took the Hornets away. Although the Hornets have Anthony Davis, the champion, but he always needs time to grow up, it is impossible to replace the Hornets to the top in one fell swoop.

107 to 90, Yiyang 32 points and 10 assists, the Mavericks have won 14 straight!

On January 11, the Mavericks returned to the home court, but their opponents have not changed. They are still the Hornets.

The league always arranges several games of this kind of brain disability every season, that is, two identical teams change home and away games in two days.

Unfortunately, this time the Hornets were "brainally disabled." As a result, they had to suffer a second injury from the Mavericks ~www.novelmtl.com~ than 110 24 hours later. The Hornets lost even worse today because they had no intention of fighting since the second half of the game began.

Facing the same strong enemy for two consecutive days, as long as the Hornets players are normal people, they will not like this game.

Thanks to the league’s "brain-disabled schedule", the Mavericks easily won their 15th game winning streak from the Hornets!

At this point, those media who are still questioning Yiyang have begun to panic. The next two opponents for the Mavericks are the Magic and the Nets, both of which have struggled in the Eastern Conference this season. It seems unrealistic to expect them to stop the Mavericks' winning streak.

Sure enough, on January 13, facing the Orlando Magic, which has only won 10 games this season, Yiyang scored 42 points and pushed the people who questioned him to the edge of the cliff.

"Big Baby" Glenn Davis and Maurice Harkris did not have any ability to protect the frame at all. Yiyang's shocks have made the Orlando people heartbroken. When will their team return to the top?

108 to 88, Yiyang's 42 points allowed the Mavericks to take 16 consecutive victories! It is only one game away from breaking the best 17-game winning streak in team history created in the 0607 season!

In the next stop to Brooklyn, everyone felt that the Mavericks were determined to win.

However, Yiyang was not dazzled by the applause from the outside world. The battle in Brooklyn will never be easy, at least, it will not be as easy as defeating Magic today.

The Nets have a bunch of powerful veterans who are still full of desire for championships. Most importantly, there is also a Jason Terry who is sure to go crazy when he meets Yiyang. And Yiyang can go to a mentor that cannot be ignored today, the Nets coach at the time, Jason Kidd...
