Yiyang's pentathlon performance put the confident Clippers behind by ten points as soon as they came up. Paul didn't know how Yiyang did it. So many tall insiders in this league couldn't block his layup, but Yiyang did it.

Although it was just a finger rub against the ball, it was also a way of blocking. As long as it can prevent the opponent from scoring, what is the difference between directly fanning and losing?

After sitting on the bench, Paul couldn't help but look up at the replay on the big screen of the scene. As he himself had expected, what was shown on the big screen at this time was exactly the picture of him being blocked by Yiyang.

Yiyang's expression of desperate desire for victory made Paul seem to have returned to the season when the Clippers were swept away by the Mavericks two years ago.

At that time, Yiyang also had the same expression. But Paul does not hope that the same tragedy will happen to the Clippers again.

"Pitchers try to get opportunities through off-the-ball screens as much as possible. We need to increase the number of shots from the outside, especially the number of three-pointers. Don't try it close to the basket. It will only make you one after another. Missed!" At this point, Dou Grievous has found that the Mavericks' internal disadvantage has long since disappeared. In the last game, the Clippers relied on Gobert's "cash machine"-like defense to kill all quarters. But if they still do that today, the Clippers themselves will undoubtedly be killed in the end.

Now that he couldn't move inside, Rivers began to play the idea of ​​three-pointers, and now three-pointers are becoming more and more important in the league. Players' three-pointers' attempts and shooting percentages have been increasing year by year. The three-pointers are regarded as the team's main scoring method. This kind of thing can be seen in many teams.

After Gobert leaves the field and DeJuan Bryan comes out, it will not be too late for Rivers to organize the team to play inside.

Rivers seems to have forgotten that the Golden State Warriors, who have just been swept by the Mavericks 4-0, are a three-point team.

The game restarted, Rivers replaced Barnes with Jamal Crawford, with a very obvious intention to strengthen the team's offense. Crawford has been in excellent form since he won the best sixth man award. With one more attack point, Rivers believes that the Clippers will also get more opportunities than others.

"The Clippers' current lineup is very aggressive. Chris, Redick and Crawford have very strong scoring capabilities on the three outside lines. We know that the Clippers are now eager to tie the score. It can be said that , This will be a duel between spear and shield!"

The Clippers came back from a timeout for their first offense. Crawford received Paul's pass early and fought Iguodala outside the three-point line.

But in fact, Crawford is just a feint point. Everyone thought he was going to play singles, but the real end of the Clippers was Redick.

Redick took advantage of the tricks, borrowing the two-man pick-and-roll of Jordan and Griffin to go beyond the three-point line. At the same time, Crawford broke through the ball, giving Redick a fleeting opportunity.

Redick didn't hesitate and took the ball and shot. This is what the Clippers let him start. He can still catch the ball, and his value is reflected in the catch and throw.

This time the offense, the Clippers performed seamlessly. Redick hit a three-pointer, reducing the point difference to 7 points!

Rivers waved his arm exaggeratedly, and the effect was immediate after the timeout. This is what all coaches like to see most.

Tony Allen didn't expect Redick's shot to be so decisive, and all the interference was not very timely. The black defender raised his right arm, indicating that it was his fault, and he must perform well in the next round.

Seeing Tony Allen reacting like this, Rivers smiled happily. I'm afraid that next time, you won't get what you want, Tony!

Although the Clippers’ attack power is strong, they are destined to sacrifice defense. The 1.95-meter Crawford obviously suffered a lot when defending Iguodala.

After receiving the pass from Yiyang, Iguodala directly pressed his body into the three-second zone, then turned over and made a jump shot from close range.

Easily, the Mavericks opened the score again. Although Iguodala is not a player with the highest score, don't think that this strong all-around forward will only be able to dunk fast.

Although the defense failed again, Rivers was not as anxious as before. He believes that his tactics will not lose effectiveness after just one round.

This time, the person who feinted with the ball changed from Crawford to Griffin. Griffin pushed forward in the middle distance position, and the collision with Nowitzki was very fierce.

Then, he suddenly straightened his arm and placed the basketball in front of him. Redick stepped forward and took the basketball from Griffin. With a beautiful hand-to-hand cooperation, Redick has once again become the end point!

After handing the ball to Redick, Griffin took advantage of the situation and blocked Tony Allen's way again.

Although Tony Allen was able to get rid of the pick and roll first-rate, no matter how fast it was, it was not as fast as Redick's shot.

Redick stopped abruptly from outside the three-point line, and just as he was about to take a shot, a big hand came out and interfered with Redick's sight.

"Why so fast!?" Redick looked in surprise, but it was not Tony Allen who interfered with his shooting at this time, but Yiyang!

"When did you make it up!?" Redick was shocked, but if Yiyang appeared in front of him, it meant that Paul had been emptied.

So Redick twisted his body in the air, turned it into a pass, and passed the ball towards Paul's position.

Yiyang knows how to make up for Redick in time. Why doesn't Tony Allen, a defensive expert, understand the importance of making up for defense?

Redick's pass was just halfway through, and Tony Allen, who was defending to Paul's side, slammed out halfway and reached out to steal the ball! Tony moved forward, and the Mavericks used the Clippers' mistakes to get a counterattack opportunity!

Although Tony Allen was eventually fouled by Crawford and failed to score directly, there is no doubt that this steal was a blow to Rivers. Your tactics can really only last for one round.

Tony Allen made one of two free throws, re-widening the point difference to 10 points. Yiyang and Tony's wonderful defense made Redick only a magical round before he was beaten back to his original shape.

The Clippers can't open the inside offense, so is the Mavericks outside Trident so easy to defeat?

Both inside and outside, the only thing waiting for the Clippers is the widening gap.

Yiyang made a fake shot and assisted Nowitzki with a shot, 12 points behind.

Griffin's mid-range jumper was defended by Gobert, who flew in one fell swoop. After looking down, "White Monster" found himself standing in the three-second zone.

Today, neither the three-second zone nor the three-point line is where the Clippers can score points. Even Crawford, the best sixth man, can hardly get a point today.

By the end of the first quarter, Redick had to put his shot at the mid-range position and use the three-pointer tactic to hit two points, which only achieved a little effect.

But unfortunately, the points difference has been opened up by the Mavericks. 28 to 16, the double-digit gap has never been narrowed since its establishment.

"The Mavericks' excellent defense made the confident Clippers hit their noses. Jamal Crawford took 4 shots in the first quarter, but only made one goal. Redick was just outside the three-point line. One goal was scored. I don’t know what Carlisle or Carlisle said to Rudy yesterday, but his performance today must have taken the Clippers by surprise.” Watching the Mavericks set up a double-digit number in the first quarter. The points difference, Kevin Harlan was completely impressed by the Mavericks' excellent defense.

"Do you think the Mavericks can be so good just because of their defense? Look at Ye's data, Kevin, I believe you will find something different."

After listening to Mike Brin, Kevin Harlan looked at Yiyang's statistics again. With 12 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds, 1 block and 2 steals in a single quarter, Yiyang has achieved the ultimate in almost every aspect.

Before the game started, many media claimed that Yiyang did not deserve the title of mvp. But with only one game today, Yiyang proved himself.

In the second quarter, Paul began to exert his strength. He started his own personal scoring mode, and he is in excellent condition. As a player with a blocked rate of only 05%, Paul's layup really wanders between scoring and being blocked.

Gobert's defense was as good as in the first quarter, but even if he worked hard, he could only watch Paul's shots pass through his fingertips and fall into the net.

Paul was able to score effectively against both Yiyang and Gobert's defenses alone. He has to admit that he is indeed one of the greatest point guards of this era. Well, one of them.

Paul's continued scoring did not narrow the difference. Because of the Mavericks' offense, they can always score easily under the guidance of Yiyang.

He can shoot from beyond the three-point line, and can quickly hit the inside to create kills. He can pass the ball to assist teammates to get easy scoring opportunities, and can also use his 1.93m height to grab offensive rebounds when his teammates strike.

In every corner of the basketball court, every time, you can see Yiyang's figure. When Gobert, who played the first quarter, was finally replaced and the Clippers rushed to the inside line guarded by DeJuan Blair, it was Yiyang's continuous output on the offensive end that did not allow the point difference to be narrowed. What's more, Yiyang also helped Blair share a lot of rebounding pressure.

Paul is a great point guard, but Yiyang is not as simple as "great" in Mike Brin's eyes. If this year Yiyang can use such excellent data to lead the team to the championship with the mvp. Then, he will become a truly epoch-making player!

In the second quarter, Paul played very well. With 14 points in a single quarter, half of the Clippers' points came from Paul.

But after the half-time of Yiyang, the data has become 20 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Kevin Harlan even exclaimed that someone is definitely controlling Yiyang to play in the stands with a handle. Because only in basketball games, this kind of data is reasonable.

Is Paul not good enough? No, he is already very good, but unfortunately, there is a better point guard on the court today.

After the start of the second half, Gobert re-appeared to consolidate the Mavericks' defense in the penalty area. Without giving way to the three-second zone, Gobert fulfilled his promise to Yiyang and Dalembert.

High hopes Redick finally began to score consecutively, but under Yiyang's terror suppression, Redick's goals did not play a substantial role in narrowing the point difference.

The third quarter of the game completely showed a one-sided situation. The Mavericks were all soldiers under the organization of Yiyang, and everyone scored. The Clippers only rely on sporadic singles to maintain their scores.

The result of this is that at the end of the third quarter, the Mavericks had led the Clippers by as much as 20 points ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ The Clippers, who were still raging on the field the day before yesterday, have now been beaten 708. drop.

Gobert's excellent defense is one of the reasons, but Yiyang's all-around play is the key to causing the Clippers to keep their heads up.

Everyone was stunned. How could the same two teams have such a huge difference in their performance overnight? But isn't this just the fun of the playoffs? The same team can give fans a different watching experience in a series.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Yiyang only played for three minutes, and then clocked in and got off work. With a 23-point difference, even if Paul exploded today, he might not be able to bring this score back.

When Yiyang was off, espn played Yiyang's game data at the bottom of the screen. With 31 points, 13 assists, 10 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks, Yiyang used a triple-double performance at the end of the game to usher in the second mvp trophy of his career.

"The 23-year-old Yiyang became the youngest player to win two MVPs in NBA history! Even the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan was close to 30 years old before finally winning the regular season MVP for the second time. Honor.” Seeing Yiyang walking towards the stadium, and the fans all gave their warmest applause, Mike Brin could no longer control his emotions.

"Are you stunned by the victory Mike, the final winner of the mvp award hasn't been announced yet? What if it is Durant who won the award?" After listening to Mike Brin's speech, Kevin Harlan looked at him. He turned around and asked in a daze. It stands to reason that a veteran commentator like Brin would not make such a low-level mistake.

"What if? God, if there is a case, then this league is killing the best players!" Mike Brin didn't think his rhetoric was a mistake. (One Guard)
