Chapter 245 Scoring Machine Kawaii!
The current record of the Mavericks is 21 wins and 2 losses, and the record is still ranked first in the league.
Ranked second is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Their record is 19 wins and 4 losses. The third is the tie between the Miami Heat and the San Antonio Spurs. Both teams have a record of 19 wins and 6 losses. The victory is the same as the Thunder. They lost two games more than the Thunder.
These four teams are the teams with the best record this season!
And like the Los Angeles Lakers, who were reported with high hopes at the beginning of the season, they have only 9 wins and 13 losses so far, ranking No. 12 in the West!
The competition in the West is already very fierce. Looking at it now, it is very difficult for the Lakers to make it to the top eight!
Playoffs!
If the Lakers can't make the playoffs this season, something big will happen!
After playing the Raptors, the Mavericks' road trip is still not over.
This time they come out, there are three away games in total, two games have been played before, and now there is the last game left!
Minnesota Timberwolves!
Minnesota is originally located in the northern part of the United States, which happens to border Canada.
The extreme north of the continental United States is in this state, so Minnesota is also known as the North Star State
This is a back-to-back away game.
The group of mentally retarded people in the NBA is still a bit human, considering this, so after the Raptors, the Mavericks' next opponent is the Minnesota Timberwolves!
It's funny to think about it, Yi Jianlian and the others almost just fought against the previous wolf king, and now they have to face the current wolf king again.
But things didn't go as they expected.
When they got here, they realized that Le Fu was injured!
And it hasn't come back until now.
It was the "European Golden Boy" Rubio who came back, but also came off the bench.
The Timberwolves are also facing injuries this season.
Almost half of the starting players were injured!
This is not good news for them.
When these main players are injured, it is natural for someone to step up.
Pekovic, Kirilenko and others stepped forward, and their average playing time even reached 40+ during this period!
It's useless!
Is really no one!
This game included Rubio, who played with an injury, and the Timberwolves only had 9 players on the game.
This is just the regular season, not the playoffs, and there are only so many players in a game in the regular season.
Gee
It can be seen that these guys are a little tired.
The current head coach of the Wolves is Adelman. When Yi Jianlian saw this name, he subconsciously wanted to stay away from him.
Because it was during his tenure that Dayao had no rest and recovery time.
This guy and Popovich are two extremes.
Even if you are injured, you will still be able to fight when it is time for you to fight.
Just like Rubio who played with an injury in this game.
He doesn't care about your injuries, your health or anything like that.
"Are you dead or not?"
"not dead?"
"If you're not dead, wake me up!"
No wonder these guys from the Timberwolves were drilled so hard, not for nothing!
Yi Jianlian nodded thoughtfully.
The Mavericks are not in great shape.
The weather here is quite extreme, with an average temperature of -11.5°C in January (the coldest month) and 22.8°C in July (the hottest month).
The time has now entered mid-December, and the weather is gradually getting colder.
The Mavericks were all wearing thick down jackets when they got off the plane.
Yi Jianlian is wearing a down jacket of a famous foreign brand today, black and white, with a fluffy hat, a pair of long straight-leg pants underneath, and the latest endorsement sneakers under his feet!
It looks trendy!
His teammates are also all like dogs.
NBA players are already in good shape, and with their height, they are simply born clothes hangers.
Like Westbrook and others, the clothes they wear every time in the player tunnel will even be attracted by some people as a trend!
The media reporters present couldn't wait to put cameras on them.
It won't be long before the news of the Mavericks' arrival in Minnesota will be published on the Internet or in media magazines.
The game starts at 8 o'clock in the evening!
Yi Jianlian and the others rested at the hotel for a while at noon, and their mental state recovered a bit, but they were still not very good, and they all looked listless.
I don't know if it was hit by the previous loss to the Raptors.
The state of both sides is not very good, but the Timberwolves have the home court advantage.
The game ended quickly, and the Mavericks lost again!
96 is better than 102!
The Timberwolves beat the Mavericks at home!
易建联这场比赛出战32分钟，拿到28分、1助攻、13篮板、3盖帽！
Failed to reach 30+ again!
Only 2 points away!
However, compared to the previous game, Yi Jianlian's game has slightly improved, which is a good place.
After losing to the Timberwolves, Yi Jianlian and others chose to return to Dallas that night.
I really don't want to stay in this ghost place for a second.
For Americans, December is a very important month.
Because there is Christmas this month.
Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ's Mass". It originated from the Saturnalia Festival when the ancient Romans greeted the New Year, and has nothing to do with Christianity.
After Christianity prevailed in the Roman Empire, the Holy See followed suit and incorporated this folk festival into the Christian system, and at the same time celebrated the birth of Jesus.But Christmas is not the birthday of Jesus, because the "Bible" does not record the specific day of Jesus' birth, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of Christianity absorbing ancient Roman mythology.
When it comes to Christmas, one naturally thinks of the Christmas War.
The annual Christmas game is the highlight of the NBA!
The 10 teams that can participate are all thought out by the league after racking their brains.
First of all, those who entered the finals last season had to occupy two spots, and the second was to look at the influence of the city.
Like the New York Knicks, although they sometimes have a bad record, the league still has to give them a chance to play this game, because New York is a big city!
Dallas is definitely going to be in the Christmas game this year.
They were runners-up last season, so their opponents were determined early.
Miami Heat!
This is the team that beat them to win the championship last season!
Before the Christmas game, the Mavericks' record was relatively easy.
There are only three games in total. In the first two games, one was against the Philadelphia 76ers and the other was against the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Mavericks won both games.
After returning to the home court, the Mavericks recovered and defeated their opponents in a row.
In this way, the Mavericks' record came to 23 wins and 3 losses.
Yi Jianlian averaged 32 points, 1 assist, 13 rebounds, and 3 blocks in these two games!
Then the Mavericks have only one opponent before Christmas, and that is the San Antonio Spurs!
This is the first time the two teams have met this season!
This is also the first meeting since last season's playoffs!
The Mavericks are away and the Spurs are at home!
This is an intercontinental civil war!
Both teams are from Texas, and the Houston Rockets are also from Texas.
There are many teams in the same continent like this, such as California, where the Lakers, Warriors, Clippers, and Kings all belong to California.
Texas should be the most powerful state besides California and Florida!
This is of course not talking about the combat effectiveness of their "mass". If it is about combat effectiveness, I'm not bragging. There are not many people in the United States who have fought against Texas.
Even Indiana!
From the perspective of basketball, Texas' strength is also at the forefront.
Three teams, the Mavericks, Spurs, and Rockets, only the Rockets are a little weaker, and the Mavericks and Spurs are the top teams in the league!
The encounter between these two teams also made everyone look forward to it.
The current record of the Mavericks is leading, but the specific strength cannot be determined from the record alone.
On the morning of December 12, Yi Jianlian and others arrived in San Antonio.
Although it is in one state, the distance between the two places is not close, about 300 kilometers.
In order to catch up with time, Yi Jianlian and others took a plane to go there.
The pre-match warm-up was also done very well.
Everyone agrees that this is definitely an intense game no less than the Christmas War!
This is not the first time San Antonio has come, so I went back to the hotel to rest for a while.
At 8:[-] p.m., the game starts on time!
The starting lineups of both sides were shown on the big screen.
The Mavericks are still in the regular lineup, and the Spurs have Tony Parker and Danny Green on the outside, Kawhi and Duncan on the front line, and Thiago Splitter at the center.
Yi Jianlian and Thiago's jump ball.
Thiago is a 211 big man, he is a Brazilian athlete.
He averaged 9.3 points and 5.2 rebounds per game last season.
This guy doesn't have much to do offensively. He was born as a power forward, so his ability in the low post and around the basket is not particularly outstanding.
However, his strength is fairly good, his movement is fairly flexible, his wingspan and jumping are average, and his rebound protection is also average.
In general, he is just a blue-collar player.
It didn't take much effort for Yi Jianlian to jump the ball, the ball was directly sent back to the backcourt!
The Mavericks get the right to attack the first ball!
Darren Collison brought it over, faced Tony Parker's defense, and directly found Green's pick-and-roll!
The Spurs are also unambiguous, if you dare to call a pick-and-roll, I will dare to switch defenses!
"Stone Buddha" Duncan waded over directly and stood in front of Collison!
Collison didn't stop, and after seeing Duncan being attracted by him, he suddenly made a move to the right!
At the same time, OJ Mayo ran to the left around the three-point line, and the two just crossed.
They move very smoothly.It definitely looks like it's been practiced before.
But Duncan is really awesome!
The moment the two crossed each other, Old Deng pulled his head back and continued to block Collison.
"Huh? The pick-and-roll failed?!"
Mavericks fans exclaimed!
As expected of Duncan, this sense of smell is too keen!
Collison seemed to be cornered!
Just when everyone was guessing what he would do next.He suddenly passed the ball in his hand!
what?
Collison's pass was very spiritual, passing directly from the right to the left!
Easy to build joint balls!
The frightened Thiago hurried over to defend, but it was too late!
Yi Jianlian large open opportunity!
Three-point shot!
With a swipe, go straight in!
The score is 3 to 0!
This is a clean three-pointer!
The Mavericks played very smartly this time!
Collison's feint attack directly drove the Spurs' defense!
Especially Duncan's defense!
As soon as Duncan moved, there was only one Thiago left inside, and he couldn't keep up with Yi Jianlian's footsteps at all.
There are ten thousand ways for Yi Jianlian to get rid of him!
The Spurs attack.
Parker came forward and found the pick-and-roll with Thiago.
Breakthrough after pick and roll!
speedy!
Parker's breakthrough was very simple.Just use the speed of the first step to pass the defender directly!
After the pass, whether to choose a projectile or a layup depends on the specific situation!
Parker's first step!
The Mavericks wanted to switch, but Parker was too fast!
Yi Jianlian was directly killed by Parker and entered the inside line before he was in position!
As for Collison, let alone, he hasn't bypassed the pick-and-roll yet!
Parker chose to shoot!
The arc of this ball is very large!
Basketball shot!
Floating into the basket!
Two points scored!
The score is 3 to 2!
Parker played this ball beautifully!
A pick-and-roll completes the offense directly!
concise!
Efficient!
This is the Spurs' offensive style.
Looking back, the Mavericks' offense.
It was Collison who dribbled the ball. After bringing it over, he found a pick-and-roll with Green at the top of the arc!
This time Parker pushed through.
Collison's pass.To the high-ranking Green.
Green protected the ball on the right side, and suddenly made a ground pass!
It's still Yi Jianlian!
Yi Jianlian came from the weak side!
Thiago's defense!
With a slight movement of Yi Jianlian's feet, he passed the defense with a touch of his body!
"Oh!"
"boom!"
Score with one hand!
The score is 5 to 2!
It is too difficult to play the same tactics continuously in a team like the Spurs!
Several people in the Spurs are top golfers, especially Duncan!
But the Mavericks also have a way. As long as Duncan doesn't come to help defend and give Yi Jianlian a chance to play singles, the Mavericks will score very easily!
The Spurs attack.
After Parker advanced, he handed the ball directly to Kawhi!
Kawaii singles Marion!
A deadpan mid-range jumper!
A swipe!
There are also!
Kawaii is like a scoring machine, the movements are meaningless and redundant, and even the arc of the basketball is very low!
From Yi Jianlian's point of view, this should obviously be a basket ball, but it just went in!
Nothing!
The score is 5 to 4!
Score bites to death.
The Mavericks attacked, Collison brought it over, OJ Mayo and Green completed a wave of pick-and-rolls at the top of the arc on the right.
Collison controls the ball and goes to the right corner, OJ Mayo runs in the opposite direction, and the two cross!
Mayo received a wave of hand-to-hand catches, open opportunities!
Danny Green took a step slower.
Mayo didn't wait, and threw the ball for a three-pointer!
Danny Green Interference!
"Bang!"
One sound!
Missed the ball!
Lao Deng protected the rebound with his head, dribbled a step, and threw it to Parker!
Parker's drive with the ball!
After coming to the frontcourt, I still gave Kawaii!
Kawaii raised his head and glanced at the basket, without blinking, he just threw it!
It's still a mid-range two-pointer!
"Shh!"
Crisp and sweet!
