Also stop for jump shots, basketball still gets into the net with bumps!"
"Blake's breakthrough was very tough. He completed a layup against Dirk and the Clippers tied the score again!"
"Kaman's defense was very quick, but in the end he chose to pass the ball. Can Jason Terry make a hit? Good goal, the Mavericks score another three!"
"Eric Gordon hits and shoots, hits a three-pointer, and the score is tied again!"
The wonderful game made the cheering in the Staples Center fluctuate continuously, and the fast pace of the game between the two sides made the fans dizzy.
Yiyang and Griffin's wonderful performances also pushed the popularity of the game to its peak.
This game that didn't have too much suspense and spectacle, but now it has been suspenseful, and the scene is even more exciting and colorful.
The two teams ended their first half of the game just under this fast pace.
At the end of the last game, Griffin scored 10 points and 5 rebounds. And Yiyang, who has surpassed starting Kidd in playing time, also has 9 points and 6 assists.
From the data point of view, Griffin is still likely to continue his consecutive double-double performance. And Yiyang has a good chance to win the first double-double of his career in the second half of the game!
49 to 47, with a two-point lead, the Mavericks walked silently to the player channel. Although he was leading at halftime and playing to be very admiring, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle's expression is not very good-looking.
The strength of the Clippers and the Mavericks is not above the same level. He hopes to see the team completely control the scene instead of being dragged into the mud by the Clippers and crawling hard. The Mavericks played well in the first half, but Carlisle didn't care whether the game was exciting or not. The only thing he longed for was victory!
So during the intermission, Carlisle didn't take time off. As soon as he entered the locker room, he started writing and drawing on the big white board. Yiyang could see that these Carlisle drew were not offensive lines, but defensive lines.
"Defense!" After drawing, Carlisle hammered the whiteboard, and all the players who were resting raised their heads.
"In the first half of the game, we made the opponent's offense too easy. Dirk, in the second half you will defend against Griffin's breakthrough. Don't be afraid of his shots. I want you to let him go for a distance, don't worry! Jason , Locking up Davis's passing route will not allow him to take the ball easily, nor to allow Griffin to receive the ball easily. If Griffin receives the ball in the three-second zone, or rushes with the ball Get up. I hope you can quickly make up defenses or double-teams, remember, cut the ball! With Griffin, you can boldly cut the ball!" Carlisle's on-the-spot command may be limited, but if you are willing to give him time , He can definitely put a lot of things on the point.
"Yi!" Just after everyone thought Carlisle had finished speaking, the experienced coach called Yiyang again.
Yiyang didn't answer, but stared straight at his coach.
"I know you want to compete with Griffin, but you can't be brought into the Clippers rhythm by him. Slow down, okay? Slow down the rhythm and we will fight the Clippers more positions. !" Carlisle knew that fast pace is what Yiyang is good at, but the too fast pace of the game will make it difficult for the rest of the Mavericks to integrate into the offense.
Yiyang nodded, expressing understanding. The fight between him and Griffin really made the victorious guy Yiyang play a little too fast. After all, the two rookies are eager to retaliate on the offensive end.
After the start of the second half, Griffin of the Clippers continued to play. In the first half, Yiyang, who led the Mavericks' offense, sat on the bench.
Carlisle wants to play Kidd first, firstly, he can increase the defensive intensity first, and secondly, he can let Kidd redefine the rhythm of the game.
The seasoned Kidd did a very good job, although he was not as aggressive as Yiyang, and he did not have a terrifying impact. But under the care of Kidd, the Mavericks are orderly both offensively and defensively.
The impatient Griffin is still obsessed with fast offense. He wants to make a simple and rude breakthrough in Nowitzki several times, but finds that he can't complete the overtaking now.
Nowitzki, as Carlisle arranged, put him a long distance, just to prevent Griffin from breaking through.
Later, Griffin also discovered this. He started shooting from the mid-range position, but the effect was very bad.
Seeing the Clippers' offense stalled, Carlisle changed first. He replaced Terry with Yiyang and let Kidd and Yiyang match the backcourt! Double point guard lineup, this seems to have become a sign that Carlisle is about to win the game!
When Yiyang played again, only four minutes of the second half of the game, but the score has been gradually opened by the Mavericks. The 6-point difference may seem small, but it is enough to make the Clippers nervous
The appearance of Yiyang greatly stimulated Griffin's nerves. This time, Griffin did not choose to smash Nowitzki in the low position, but fell in the high position, hoping to hold the ball and rush to play!
Byron Davis, defended by Kidd, clearly saw Griffin's meaning. He deliberately asked for a pick-and-roll outside the three-point line, waited for himself to take the defender away, and then passed the ball back to Gerry. Fen, everything will be fine!
Just thinking that, Griffin's pick-and-roll is in place. Nowitzki followed Carlisle's arrangement and did not follow, which gave Griffin room to start the sprint.
The white-skinned champion smiled, and Byron Davis quickly passed him, and then Kidd tried his best to bypass the strong cover.
After Byron Davis broke through, Griffin repeated the old tricks and suddenly started! Byron Davis stopped with both feet and then dribbled with a flick of his wrist. The basketball flew sideways and went straight to Griffin who was running.
It was precisely because of such a cooperation that Griffin successfully blocked Nowitzki in the first half of the game, which made Yiyang really start to challenge Griffin.
Griffin is about to receive the basketball, he has even begun to budget to break through the dunk route later.
Just at this very moment, a guy wearing a Dallas blue number one away jersey suddenly rushed out, crossing between the basketball and Griffin.
Looking at Byron Davis's surprised expression, Yiyang did not express anything. His calm expression seemed to be saying "I expected everything."
"Top-notch predictive ability! I also gave the Clippers a mistake as soon as he came up!"
After Yiyang intercepted the basketball, he did not rush quickly, but stood still and slowed down. After his teammates started to run forward, Yiyang only took control of the ball.
Yiyang moved forward slowly, as if 24 seconds on the rebound timer were 24 hours for him.
As soon as crossed the midfield line, Yiyang responded! He quickly hit the ball, the basketball spinning in the air looking for his own "belonging".
"Is this a mistake?" Vignari, who was sitting in the first row, looked at the direction of the basketball flight. That position was in front of him, but in front of him, there were no Mavericks players.
Watching the basketball flying closer and closer, Vignali even worried that the ball would hit her face directly. Is it possible that he is passing away?
Just when everyone including Vignali was at a loss, Kidd suddenly jumped out of the crowd. People's attention is focused on Yiyang who is holding the ball, but in fact, Kidd has already started to attack by running without the ball!
The basketball flew to the "no one" position, and Kidd just hit the horse and killed it. This experienced old guard knows Yiyang too well. He believes that the opportunities he can see can also be seen by Yiyang.
received the ball steadily, and Kidd made a three-pointer with no one around. Byron Davis? Davis has already enjoyed the "Boxing King" hospitality, and I believe he will be impressed. In any case, Chandler's off-the-ball pick and roll, he can't make it now.
Kidd's three-pointer has always been a shortcoming that has been criticized by people, but Kidd, who has now entered the end of his career, has already developed a sufficiently stable long-range shot ability.
The basketball drew a right arc in the air, and then hollowed into the frame!
"From the cooperation between the two guards, Kidd and Yi are really full of tacit understanding. These two guys with very clear minds on the field seem to be able to find all the offensive routes!" Looking at the old one on the field. With two fewer point guards, Kenny Smith admires it.
After the goal was scored, the Mavericks officially led the Clippers by 9 points. And Yiyang's data has also become 9 points and 7 assists~www.mtlnovel.com~ It seems that Yiyang's first double-double in NBA career has been touched.
After a goal, Griffin sat back down again. Yiyang doubled in time. Although he could not grab the ball directly, he forced Griffin to make a pass error.
After the Mavericks regained the opportunity to attack, Kidd held the ball. At the mid-range position, Kidd suddenly hit the ground with a pass. It turned out that Yiyang had already cut into the basket from the side through a beautiful reverse run. The ball didn't pass high or low, and it happened to fall into Yiyang's hands. Yiyang didn't need to adjust, he took two strides and made a slight leap to score a layup.
Chris Kaman didn't expect Yiyang would suddenly cut to the basket like this, so he blocked it too late. When Yiyang began to fall, Kaman had just taken off.
After Yiyang sent a wonderful pass to Kidd, Kidd led Yiyang to complete the layup. Carlisle's Mavericks not only strengthened their defense, but with Kidd and Yiyang's point guards, the Mavericks turned their successful defense into scoring.
After the goal was scored, the Mavericks' lead became 11 points, and Yiyang's personal scoring data also became 11 points.
Up to now in the second half of the game, Griffin's data is still 10 points and 5 rebounds. Facing the Mavericks defense, Griffin was misfired throughout the second half, and there was no increase in the data. And Yiyang, now only 3 assists away, he will get a double-double. There is a whole quarter and a half left in the game.
11 points, one and a half minutes. One of the Clippers' engines has been ignited by Carlisle's defensive strategy, and there is still the last engine left. I wonder if it can bring the broken Clippers to the end?
The Clippers are in crisis, Griffin and his teammates will definitely fight back. But Yiyang and the Mavericks would not just give up victory in this way.
