One Guard

Joel Embiid did not have the slightest advantage in the melee inside, and Gobert's tough style surprised him. Drummond is also the top defender in the league, but he can't do anything about it. But Gobert, the Frenchman, is like a mad dog on the defensive end today, biting Embiid.

Embiid was unwilling to push it back again, and this time, Gobert took a step back slightly. But before Embiid could find a chance, Gobert quickly adjusted it and pushed it up again.

Gobert's enthusiasm on the defensive end is much higher than Drummond in the previous game. Embiid had no choice but to make a hook shot, which is the least likely to be blocked and interfered with. Even small defenders like Thomas and Curry often use small hooks to score goals on big men after breaking through.

However, Gobert didn't give Embiid any space. He blocked Embiid's rhythm strongly. The hook shot was a little different from the basket, but he still slammed out of the box.

15 points, 2 minutes and 18 seconds before the end of the game, Embiid has scored 15 points. Gobert assured Yiyang that he would not let Embiid score more than 15 points. In other words, from now to the end of the game, he can no longer let Embiid score!

In fact, even if Gobert allowed Embiid to score more than 15, Yiyang would not be upset. But Gobert himself would not allow such a thing to happen, he would not have an argument with Embiid, let alone a physical conflict. He wants to use basketball to respond to Embiid's provocation!

The 76ers' offense missed again, but this will no longer make Jaylen Rose a fuss. Since the opening game was hit 11-0, the 76ers have been playing badly.

In the third quarter, Simmons and Embiid's fiery state allowed them to reduce the point difference to 4 points! However, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, after the Mavericks strengthened their defense, the 76ers' offense became inefficient again.

Yiyang Xianting walked past halftime, and the young team's performance was easily affected by emotions. In the backward phase, the 76ers' defense will become frizzy instead. Now, it's easy for the Mavericks to break through the 76ers' defense. Therefore, Yiyang is not in a hurry at all.

He only called a pick-and-roll, attracted the defense and passed the ball to Mitchell who cut in. In this way, Yiyang completed the assist and the Mavericks scored easily.

Bayless has no way to take Mitchell. This is Mitchell's 19th point in this game. As a rookie who almost fell out of the lottery zone, Mitchell's performance was scary enough. Embiid and Simmons, two supernovae, were eclipsed in front of Mitchell today.

"Donovan Mitchell, and another beautiful pass of Heyi. This guy is simply Dwyane Wade who won two O'Brien Cups for Heyi back then! He reproduced Wei perfectly. De's role in the Mavericks, no, he will definitely become stronger than Wade in his twilight years!"

So far, the 76ers have fallen behind by 14 points. Facing the defense of the Dallas Mavericks, wanting to tie 14 points in 2 minutes is simply a fantasy.

What's more frightening is that even though it has led so much, the Mavericks have no intention of relaxing. Looking at Gobert's gritted teeth on defense, the belief that Embiid can't let Embiid score more than 15 points is deeply ingrained in his mind.

Hayward kept Simmons out of the three-second zone well, and Embiid was stared to death by Gobert, who was so red-eyed. Brett Brown called the game to stop at this critical moment, but after returning from the timeout, Brown discovered that Carlisle replaced Yiyang with Mudiay and Rudy Gay with Kuzma.

What does this mean? This means that Rick Carlisle has sworn he has won the game!

Facts have proved that Carlisle is not blindly arrogant to replace the main force in advance. As he planned, as long as Embiid and Simmons are strangled, the 76ers' offense is no longer a threat.

In the last two minutes, Kuzma and Mudiay gave full play to their talents, while Simmons and Embiid, two awe-inspiring supernovas, can only learn their lessons from failures.

When the electronic buzzer sounded at the end of the game, Embiid covered his head with both hands in disbelief. 15 points and 9 rebounds, this data is actually not bad. But compared with the 30+10 in the last game against Drummond, it was obviously not enough.

Gobert walked off the court sweating profusely, and he kept asking Carlisle to let him play until the last minute. The French kept their promise and tried their best to limit Embiid's scoring to 15 points. You know, before that, Embiid was able to score 22.9 points per game. Moreover, he also controlled Embiid's shooting percentage at 42.3%. For this inside player, such a hit rate is definitely not high.

Embiid thought he could overwhelm the American Airline Center Arena like a bully Drummond, but unfortunately, he encountered a "suffocation tower" whose desire to win is stronger than himself!

"Good job Rudy, you are our MVP tonight." Yiyang happily took the initiative to give Gobert a high-five. This guy said that he would not let Embiid score more than 15, but Yiyang didn't play too much at first. In the heart. Unexpectedly, in order to promise, he actually worked so desperately.

Where is Simmons? With 13 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds, it is still a close triple-double. Yiyang’s worries are not unreasonable. Even if Hayward has taken the defense to the extreme today, even if the Mavericks have deliberately blocked Simmons’s pass today, he still scored a “quasi-three-double” data.

Simmons is different from Embiid. After losing, he just left silently and didn't stay much. But Yiyang saw that the palm joints of that guy were all white because of making a fist!

Embiid and Simmons left a deep impression on Yiyang, and they are indeed likely to make the 76ers the future league hegemon. But, as long as I haven't retired, you guys don't have this kind of daydreaming!

"Joel, how do you comment on Rudy Gobert's defense against you today?" Embiid was about to walk into the player channel, but his way was blocked by a Chinese reporter. Of course he didn't know that the one in front of him was Yiyang's loyal supporter, Mou Ran.

"He has fouled several times, but the referees turned a blind eye to it. To be honest, he played too dirty. And all those who play dirty, in my opinion, are soft guys!" Embiid's face is not red and heartbeat. Replied Mu Ran, he thought this reporter was just as foolish as everyone else.

"Even if he only fouled three times in this game, do you think Gobert played cleanly?"

Embiid obviously didn't expect Mourin to ask, and naturally he couldn't justify his nonsense. "I said, the referee turned a blind eye to this, so he didn't foul. The next time I meet, I will make the Frenchman pay the price!"

Embiid finished speaking and left angrily. This is the first time "The Great" has met with reporters who have not been down the stairs.

It is precisely because of the successful defense of Embiid that Gobert, the behind-the-scenes hero who has been silently protecting Yiyang, has become a sweet pastry in the eyes of reporters today.

The reporters were really surprised to see that they were accustomed to the "Great Emperor" raging in the Alliance and suddenly stood up to restrain Embiid. Even if today's best player is Yiyang, even today Yiyang scored 29 points, 11 assists and 3 steals. But Yiyang has shown this kind of performance and everyone has become accustomed to it. But Gobert's positivity has shocked people.

"If Rudy can maintain such a defensive state, it is not surprising that he won the best defensive player award this year!" After the game, Jaylen Rose even gave Gobert such an evaluation.

At the press conference, Mougin "secretly" told Gobert of Embiid's remarks, in order to get Gobert to respond to Embiid in front of the media.

But before Gobert could speak, Yiyang, who was sitting on the stage, took the initiative to grab the right to speak.

"Dirty playing? With all due respect, if Rudy gets dirty, fellow Embiid won't even get 10 points!"

"Puff!" Simmons, who was watching the live broadcast of the press conference on the team bus, almost laughed. If Embiid hadn't glared at Simmons, he probably couldn't hold back.

"It won't be like this next time I return to the home court! Damn it!" Embiid looked at the appearance of the American Airlines Center Arena outside the bus window. This is a hell!

So far this season, the 76ers' record has become 5 losses and 1 win. But there is no game that makes Embiid feel so desperate to lose. It seems that since Yiyang's cold-blooded ultra-long three-pointer widened the point difference to 11 points, the ending is doomed.

Yiyang killed the game with the most stable skills, and then responded to the opponent's provocation with the most vicious language without dirty words.

Not long after Embiid entered the alliance, he has already made countless enemies. But most of the time, the arrogant Embiid can have the last laugh.

Only this time, he touched the tiger's ass.

Defeating the awe-inspiring 76ers, the Mavericks started the game with seven consecutive victories. Cuban has a hunch that this will be the beginning of another great season for the Mavericks.
