One Guard

Vol 3 Chapter 740: : There is nothing to lose

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shines through the curtains into Yiyang's room, he only feels refreshed, but there is no physical discomfort at all.

Some things are more uncomfortable to hold back.

Vignali rubbed her eyes and yawned vaguely. Seeing herself resting on Yiyang's strong arms, the Italian girl smiled contentedly. She didn't dream, and the night of dreamy ecstasy yesterday was all true.

"Tomorrow's game, let Carlisle set up singles tactics for you, right?"

"Oh? Why?" Yiyang looked at the woman in her arms in surprise, how could she talk about basketball together in bed.

"Because when you don't take cover, the offense seems to be more violent."

"Really!?" Yiyang curled his lips and pulled the quilt abruptly to completely cover the two of them.

So today, it is rare for Yiyang to be the first to go to the training ground. The teammates knew that Vignali was back last night, so they all smirked at Yiyang.

"This is going to be the playoffs. The physical problem must be controlled well!" Nowitzki said solemnly in the locker room, causing everyone to laugh.

"Okay, Dirk, when confrontation training later, you can be passed by me again." Yiyang's "strong" response made everyone in the locker room roar.

Tomorrow, the playoffs will start. However, everyone on the Mavericks has no sense of tension to play in the playoffs.

Because for the first round, they are still very confident. Played against the Pelicans four times this season, and the Mavericks have won four times. Even in the four games, except for the injured one, Anthony Davis has played a super data of 30+10. But they never won once, this is an indisputable fact.

As a historically strong team, they shouldn't have been too worried about the first round.

Taking it seriously does not mean that you must be afraid of your opponent. Anthony Davis is indeed very strong, and he is indeed capable of overturning the Mavericks. But as long as the Mavericks play normally, the game will not be too problematic.

On the Mavericks side, everyone is relaxed. On the other side, the Pelicans side, the atmosphere can be very tense.

Monty Williams was holding a whistle and staring at the big and tall men running and jumping on the court. This is not the first time he has led a team in the playoffs, but it made the Pelicans coach feel a little nervous.

Last time, when he coached the Hornets to play in the playoffs, he had at least Chris Paul as a "sacred needle". But now, he is leading a group of young people, and he doesn't know what Anthony Davis will be like in the first playoffs. He doesn't know how the game will develop against a historically strong team like the Mavericks.

The entire series is unknown to Monty. The unknown is the deepest fear in human hearts!

At this time, a loud roar on the court awakened Monty. He looked up and found that Anthony Davis had just finished a shot against Eric Gordon.

This block can only be described as "inhumane". People who don't know think Davis is a volleyball player.

"How many times have I said, Gordon, don't directly attack the opposing big players! Believe me, in the real arena, Rudy Gobert will be more cruel to you than Davis!" Dee Williams yelled, and Gordon raised his hand apologetically.

Where is Anthony Davis? His serious expression remained the same. It seems that Gordon is his real opponent.

This guy has always been serious on the training ground, facing his first playoff game, even if the opponent is the Mavericks, Davis does not seem to want to give up.

For the current Pelicans, they have completed all the tasks of the season. Everyone knows that their goal is to make the playoffs, and now they have done it, so there is no burden.

Davis is in such a mood at this time, facing the historic Mavericks, even if they lose? So he doesn't want to think about it so much, just want to release himself in the playoffs and see how much he is.

Monty Williams smiled. Why is there no young man who can see him now?

"Davis! Good job!" Off the court, Monty Williams gave the big-eyed guy a thumbs up.

Time flies, and a day’s training time always ends quickly.

After only two days of rest, the smoke of the basketball war has not yet completely dissipated, and the more intense playoffs have been put on the agenda!

On April 18th, a total of 8 teams will take the lead in a more deadly battle. The U.S. Route Center Arena was already overcrowded as early as noon. Everyone couldn't wait to see what the regular season champion Mavericks would look like in the playoffs.

This is not the first time Yiyang has seen this battle. Dallas is so lively in the playoffs every year. Wenxue and Vignali entered the field long ago to wait for the start of the game, everything is ready, waiting for their opponents to play.

An hour before the game, when the Pelicans players came to warm up, the Mavericks fans didn't seem to have much reaction. After all, in their eyes, the Pelicans are not even an opponent.

Not only the fans think so, but even Jeff Van Gundy, who has always been cautious, thinks so.

"The Dallas Mavericks this season are'historically strong' in ESPN's words. They are averaging 10.1 points per game, and their offensive efficiency is as high as 109.7 points, the league's first. At the same time, their defensive efficiency. But it was 98.2 points, which is still the league's first. Compared with the offensive and defensive Mavericks, the Pelicans show offensive strength and defensive weakness. The Pelicans still scored 105.4 despite suffering from injuries this season. The offensive efficiency of points ranks ninth in the league, which is very remarkable. But the problem is that their strong defensive strength on the book has not been shown at all. The defensive efficiency of the Pelicans is only ranked ninth in the league, worse than the Pelicans. Of the eight teams, only the Raptors and Nets made the playoffs. And those two teams are both Eastern Conference teams! There is no doubt that the Pelicans defense is unable to gain a foothold in the Western Conference playoffs. . "Van Gundy spread his hands, and the game seems to be able to see the end before it starts.

"The Mavericks' tough moves basically hit the Pelicans' weakness. The Pelicans' pick-and-roll defenses, fixed-point jumpers, and air cuts are among the worst in the league. Especially in the pick-and-roll, the Mavericks players’ tacit cooperation and Yiyang’s superb The finishing ability will make the Pelicans' defense very uncomfortable. Although the Pelicans are ranked eighth in the league in defense, the Mavericks' counterattacks are really terrifying. As long as they start to run wildly, basically no one can stop him. For the Pelicans, if Davis can't play super-level performance, they will definitely be unable to shake the Mavericks." On the other hand, ESPN's Mike Brin and Van Gundy have basically the same views.

From commentators to fans, from authority to passersby, no one is optimistic about the Pelicans. This situation is really similar to the Dallas Mavericks a few years ago.

As Yiyang warmed up, he couldn't help but glance at the Pelicans halftime. The guy Anthony Davis didn't give up just because he was not optimistic. During the warm-up phase, he was still very serious and not nervous. It seems that he doesn't care if his opponent is a "historical" strong team. He only knows that he must do what he should do.

If you lose, the Pelicans will not be blamed by the outside world. If they win, the Pelicans are desperate to die without losing.

When the referee signaled the starting five tigers of both sides to stand in the designated position, people said that Anthony Davis must be nervous. But in fact, Davis was at peace at this moment. What nervous emotions are completely made up by the commentators themselves.

Yiyang seriously pressed his leg, and you can see Davis's expression, that kid will not make the game too easy today. In the first game of the playoffs, no one will surrender before playing.

The referee blew his whistle, and Gobert fought for the basketball over Asik without any pressure. The U.S. Route Center Arena instantly boiled, and everyone expected the Mavericks to suppress the game from the beginning of the first attack.

Yiyang didn't take it lightly, he would play a pick-and-roll as soon as he came up. Pick-and-roll prevention is the Pelican’s weakness, and there is no reason not to take advantage of it.

Gordon, who defended Yiyang, tried his best to squeeze Nowitzki, but found himself unable to do so. Yiyang broke through with Davis who had made up his defense, and after running two steps, he returned the ball to Dirk.

At this time, Davis was two big steps away from Dirk. Under normal circumstances, this is empty for Dirk.

But today, when Dirk raised the basketball to shoot, a high wall suddenly crossed in front of him.

Anthony Davis made a strenuous leap in two strides, straightening his long arms. He may be one of the few people in the league ~www.novelmtl.com~ who can block Nowitzki with a high shot point!

"Damn it!" Seeing this, Yiyang had already started to run back. Sure enough, in the next second, Dirk's shot was blocked by Davis!

After landing, Davis's guard-like speed made him pass by Dirk and picked up the basketball behind Dirk.

As a result, the fans saw such a peculiar picture.

A big inside man is rushing to counterattack with the ball, and beside him, there is only one point guard on defense.

Although Yiyang has outstanding defensive ability, it is totally joking to ask him to stop Anthony Davis from rushing up. It is not funny at all.

"Anthony Davis's speed is incredible. I have never seen a player like this in the 4th position!" Jeff Van Gundy said loudly, almost as if he had forgotten that he just degraded the Pelicans for nothing.

Yiyang sticks to Davis's side until the opponent reaches the three-second zone, and then starts to cut the ball.

But Davis raised his long arms high, avoiding Yiyang, and directly clasped and clasped with one hand!

There is no celebration, no snarling. After the dunk was over, Davis turned directly back to defense.

At the beginning of the game, Anthony Davis poured cold water on everyone in the world.

His mentality is extremely relaxed and extremely calm. tension? Are you kidding me, is Yiyang more head or hands more than me?

"I'm Cao, that kid jumped so **** high!" Nowitzki ran back to deliver the baseline kick, Yiyang was already waiting for him here.

"I think we met a desperado who is not afraid of losing, Dirk." Yiyang picked up the basketball and handed it to Nowitzki.

When a player is not afraid of losing, then he has nothing to worry about on the basketball court.
