I am so Accurate

Chapter 455 Black Eight! (First update!)

The process and results of the game were surprising.

Nowitzki felt pretty good tonight, scoring 20 points on 8-of-17 shooting, but Kobe didn't feel good after two accurate games and only scored 27 points on 9-of-26 shooting.

Although the Warriors' overall defense is poor, their individual defensive capabilities are good.

Against Kobe, Nelson also used a wheel battle, with Richardson, Baron Davis, and Matt Barnes taking turns.

Kobe had penetrated this kind of defense in the previous two games, but his physical exertion was also great, and his touch dropped this night.

As a result, the Mavericks lost every quarter, and ultimately lost 93 to 109.

"Are they really going to be hacked?"

O'Neill was a little confused after reading it.

Kobe Janowitzki!

In fact, let alone O'Neal, Sun Hao was also a little confused.

But after reviewing the game that just ended, he knew where the problem lay.

The most fatal thing is the disparity in the level of the head coaches on both sides.

This is the third game, and Johnson has not seen how to control the rhythm. He even let Nowitzki play center most of the time.

Now it seems that Johnson's coaching level is really problematic.

Of course, there is also his stubborn character, which is probably the reason why the Mavericks' tactics remain unchanged.

Not to mention that Nelson was very thorough with Johnson.

Generally, when an apprentice meets his master, there are two endings: he is better than his master, or he is unable to fight back.

Johnson clearly belongs to the latter.

Looking back, it was a good thing that Sun Hao was traded away by the Mavericks.

Secondly, there is the issue of team restraint.

Against run-and-gun teams, there are only two ways to beat them, either by suppressing the rhythm through excellent positional defense and the success rate of positional offense; or by playing a better offense than them and defeating them attack-for-attack.

What the Mavericks have been trying is the first. They tried it three times and only the second one worked.

This Warriors team's defense is really bad, but their offense is also really good.

And Nowitzki is not O'Neal. Without stable inside scoring, it is difficult to ensure the success rate of positional battles.

Or in other words, both Nowitzki and Kobe are masters of shooting style. Once they fail to make a shot or grab an offensive rebound, they will immediately be counterattacked by the Warriors.

Some people may mention the Mavericks team of Sun Hao and Nowitzki.

Although this Mavericks team does not have Bodiloga, the overall strength will not be much worse than the original Mavericks team.

Why is the result so different when facing the Warriors, who are also bombarded?

Here comes the question of play style.

Kobe's current style of play involves a lot of low-post plays, which is also an important reason why he was traded away by the Lakers in the first place.

In theory, Nowitzki can play on the outside, which fits perfectly with Kobe's style of play.

But that's the problem. Let Nowitzki be an outside shooter, which directly reduces his offensive threat.

The direct consequence of this is that Kobe and Nowitzki played a 1+1\u003c2 effect.

When the Mavericks defeated the Warriors, they relied on the second method, which was to play against each other.

Nelson is good at confrontation, and he also developed Sun Hao and Nowitzki's pick-and-roll without solution. The two played a 1+1\u003e2 effect.

This is the biggest difference.

Finally, there are the changes for the Warriors.

Nelson is the father of running and gunning, and is much more experienced than D'Antoni.

And Baron Davis is not Nash.

Nash needs good teammates to maximize his strength, because he can make his teammates better, while Davis belongs to the charging type.

Of course, the most important thing is their defense. Nash needs someone to help him when he is stabbed by thousands of people. Not only does Davis not need anyone to help him, he can also match up with Kobe one-on-one.

These reasons have also led to the Mavericks' current situation.

Black Eight, now it seems really possible.

Of course, analysis of anything is only one aspect, and no one knows whether the final result will develop as analyzed.

After all, there is no guarantee that Johnson will come to his senses in the next game, or the Warriors will suddenly lose their way from the outside.

"What kind of Porsche do you like?"

But what O'Neal said after turning around made Sun Hao laugh.

He was really looking forward to the moment when Heiba ​​appeared.

The Lakers used a twin-tower lineup to gain an advantage in the series, which also allowed them to win the next fourth game.

It's not that Popovich didn't make adjustments. He put Ginobili on the bench just like last year.

However, Popovich also paid the price for his unconventional season. Ginobili's condition this year is obviously not as good as last year.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Spurs 96-88 and won Game 4, rewriting the series score to 3-1.

Losing two home games in a row is exactly the opposite of what San Antonio fans expected.

Moreover, the next game will be played in Los Angeles. For Spurs fans, they feel that the team's season should basically be over at this point.

However, there is a saying that a defeated army must win. No one expected that in Los Angeles, the Spurs would come back 101-96.

Ginobili scored 29 points off the bench and became the most critical factor in the Spurs' win.

Here I have to lament the personal ability of the peak "Demon Sword".

Even if his personal condition is not at his best, he can still stand up when the team needs him most.

However, just when San Antonio fans were looking forward to the Spurs starting a desperate counterattack, in the sixth game in San Antonio, the Lakers defeated the Spurs with a score of 106 to 86 and easily advanced to the second round 4 to 2.

Phil Jackson also made tactical adjustments before the game. He replaced Ariza in the starting lineup with Walker.

This adjustment has greatly improved the Lakers' offense, especially when the Twin Towers are on the court, the team can still play a certain defensive counterattack.

Of course, the more important thing is this sentence: When you play the series with the Lakers and reach G6, you have already lost.

Sun Hao's 42 points in G1 did not attract too much attention from fans, but in G6, he scored 40 points in three quarters!

This kind of performance reminds fans that Sun Hao is Mr. 81 points, the scoring leader this season!

At this stage of the game, the first rounds of the Eastern and Western Conferences are basically over.

Over in the East, the Wizards defeated the Bulls 4-1.

The Bulls won one game at their home court, which means they have gained something this season, and rookie Granger averaged 9.7 points per game in the series, which is also worth looking forward to;

The Pistons also defeated the Celtics 4-1.

Winning a game at home saved the face of the Celtics, but the day after the series ended, the team officially announced that head coach Carroll was dismissed;

The Nets swept the Bucks 4-0.

The desperate counterattack Bogut mentioned did not appear. The Bucks became the only team in the Eastern Conference to be swept. What is very interesting is that after sweeping the Bucks, Nets coach Carter said this: The game depends on Hitting is not done with words;

The Magic defeated the Heat 4-2.

Although Wade's performance was very dazzling and Howard's scoring was not explosive, the Magic still had the last laugh thanks to their inside advantage;

In this way, all the teams in the upper half of the Eastern Conference advanced smoothly, and the results were as fans expected.

The two teams in the semifinals will be Wizards VS Magic and Pistons VS Nets.

Among them, the showdown between the Wizards and the Magic has attracted much attention. Last year, the two teams met in the first round, and the Magic were swept. This year is their chance for revenge.

Of course, for Yao Ming, who "eats, sleeps, and plays World of Warcraft", this is likely to be another series with a great sense of experience.

In the West, the Lakers defeated the Spurs 4-2;

The Suns swept the Kings 4-0, beating their opponents by an average of 20+ per game. After the game, Adelman voluntarily resigned, which also announced the official disintegration of the Princeton Kings, which had taken the league by storm at the beginning of the century;

These are the two groups of games that have ended, and the remaining two groups will play doubles to the tiebreaker, which is extremely intense.

Terry and Nene of the Nuggets performed very well, but the Clippers really have a lot of people who can play.

Among them, Brand's performance is particularly dazzling.

This power forward, who is only 2.06 meters tall, or maybe only 2.03 meters tall in real terms, scored 25+10+4 with a 55% shooting rate, beating Martin and Camby to the point of losing their temper.

And because of James, he has received a lot of attention in this series. Many team managers, including Dallas owner Cuban, have praised the power forward in front of reporters.

But he also deserves such praise.

Because he can score 25+10+4 so efficiently, from a statistical perspective, he is already comparable to historical superstars such as Duncan Garnett.

The other group, the Warriors and the Mavericks, had ups and downs.

After the Warriors won the third game to take a 2-1 lead, they went on to win the fourth game, extending the lead to 3-1.

At this point, even Sun Hao felt that Hei Ba was a sure thing.

As a result, Kobe scored 35 and 37 points in two consecutive outbursts, and the Mavericks forced the game into a tiebreaker.

The scene of Kobe grinning and biting his jersey in Game 6 has become a classic post-game picture.

Sun Hao was very familiar with that scene, because it was a portrayal of Kobe's real ruthlessness.

Moreover, the tiebreaker was played in Dallas, and the Warriors were already half in the cold.

Of course, the meaning of the tiebreaker is from bo7 to bo1.

The outcome is determined by one game, and theoretically everyone has the same probability of winning.

On this day, Phil Jackson organized the whole team to watch the game live, because the winning side would directly become their opponent in the next round of the game.

"Who do you think will win?"

Before the live broadcast started, this was the most discussed topic among the Lakers players.

"I don't know who's going to win, but I hope the Warriors win."

Ariza's answer is very true.

The Warriors defeated the Mavericks, but not the Lakers!

On the contrary, as fans have said, if they play the Warriors, there is a high probability that they will be sent to the Western Conference Finals.

There are also those who hope the Lone Ranger will win, such as O'Neal.

The bet with Sun Hao is only one aspect. The other aspect, which is more important, is that his thoughts are still the same as before. If he has the choice, he does not want to play against a team like the Warriors that runs the whole court. Then It was so torturous.

Of course, it's not just the Lakers who are paying attention to this game at this moment. There is only one game on this day. It can be said that the whole world is paying attention to this tiebreaker.

The same is true in China. Because Sun Hao played in Dallas, coupled with the presence of Nowitzki and Kobe, the Mavericks are now second only to the Lakers and Wizards in popularity domestically, and are higher than the Bulls.

And what is easily overlooked is that Wang Zhizhi plays the main rotation in the Warriors. This game does not lack Chinese elements.

The live broadcast was also given very early, and all the pre-game warm-up interview clips were given.

What Kobe said during an interview with reporters became the focus of all fans.

"Someone has to win, why can't it be me?"

When a reporter asked Kobe if he was confident of defeating the Warriors and advancing to this round, he said this.

This sentence fully reveals Kobe's character. In terms of competitiveness, he is better than the veteran stars of the last century.

The game started quickly, and in the first quarter, the Warriors gave everyone a big surprise.

They threw 5 three-pointers in a single quarter, scored 40 points, and beat the Mavericks 40 to 25!

The Warriors were really fierce when they shot, and Johnson on the Mavericks really didn't make any adjustments.

But if the Mavericks were defeated, they wouldn't be able to reach the tiebreaker.

In the second quarter, Kobe and Nowitzki began to work together and beat the Warriors 38-18 in one quarter.

Among them, Kobe Bryant scored 18 points in a single quarter and his performance was quite dazzling.

This reminds fans of what he said before the game. There are very few people in the league who can say that and do it.

At halftime, the Mavericks led the Warriors by 5 points 63 to 58.

This half of the game also showed the characteristics of the Warriors. Because they have no absolute offensive strength, they rely heavily on outside touch.

This is the typical type where anyone can hit if the shot is made, and anyone can hit if the shot is not made.

"Now do you think any of us should prepare the garage?"

During the halftime break, Jackson was analyzing the performance of the two teams in the first half. The players below were enjoying the show while O'Neal was chatting with Sun Hao about their bet.

"What model of Porsche do you like?"

Sun Hao paused and imitated O'Neal's previous tone, making O'Neal laugh.

This is also what Sun Hao is thinking at the moment.

Kobe was in good form tonight, and after the game entered a stalemate, the only thing that was competing was the ability of the superstar. The Warriors were obviously no match for the Mavericks.

But in the second half, Sun Hao found that he was still... sloppy.

After the Warriors came back from halftime, they started bombarding again, but the Mavericks fell into a scoring drought.

At the end of the third quarter, the Warriors once again opened the point difference to 15+.

By the fourth quarter, although Kobe was still high-spirited, the momentum of the game was no longer able to reverse.

In the end, the Warriors won the tiebreaker with a 25-point victory 111-86 at the Mavericks' home court!

The process of the competition was unexpected, and the result was even more shocking.

But when the game ended, the fans were extremely excited with the big score.

Because before their eyes, the "Black Eight Miracle" was born!

The NBA has a history of 60 years since its establishment in 1946, but in this 60-year history, including this time, there have only been three black eights!

So it's no wonder why fans are so excited.

It can even be said that except for the fans of the Mavericks, fans of other teams are all reveling in the appearance of Black Eight.

In the Lakers video room, the Lakers also cheered.

A guaranteed delivery situation has appeared!

Only O'Neal was scratching his head and cheeks.

Giving Sun Hao a Porsche is a trivial matter. He will have to run a series with the Warriors later, and it will be a real headache for him to be exhausted!

At the post-game press conference, the atmosphere of the Mavericks seemed extremely dull.

Johnson is reflecting on his coaching issues, and Nowitzki is reviewing his series performance.

"We'll be back."

Only Kobe said this.

This sounds a bit familiar. Garnett also said this before.

It's just that this time, many people didn't have such a big reaction to Kobe's words.

Because a very real problem faces this Mavericks team.

After being hacked, do they...do they still have a future?
