Chapter 114 Horn Knife

There are many ways to break the halberd finals, but the saddest one must have been reversed by the opponent.

Two games ahead and were reversed by the opponent for four consecutive games. It is estimated that Mavericks coach Avery Johnson must have a deep memory of such a failure.

Otherwise, this guy will not shout to the team before the start of the new season. He must enter the finals again, so that he can get back all the honors lost last year!

However, in the first four games of the regular season, the Mavericks were successively stepped on by the Spurs, Rockets, Warriors and Clippers.

Especially in the Texas Civil War, the first thing was that he was beheaded by the Spurs at home, and then he met the Rockets, who had been competing with him, and was won 31 points by his opponent.

It also made the Rockets revenge for being reversed in the 2005 season, but they lost two games in a row at home, which also increased Avery Johnson's pressure.

Losing to these two teams that can steadily enter the playoffs in the West may still find an excuse to say that it is an adjustment period and has not slowed down from the vacation.

But then losing to the Warriors was enough to embarrass the sideline's Kuban. Old Nelson was taken down by him at the beginning.

As a result, Nelson Sr. now takes the Golden State Warriors to counterattack again, and Avery Johnson, a junior, has completely become a supporting role.

This is the second time that Kuban has been strongly counterattacked. The last time it was Nash's performance, and he found a wild boss with a big mouth.

This time, he was replaced by old Nelson, who took away the victory in front of Kuban with his best running bombardment tactics, especially in the last two minutes of the game.

Avery Johnson's on-the-spot command ability is so immature in the face of Nelson's timeless calculation.

In the last two minutes, the Mavericks actually led by five points, but after that, they were taken eight points by a wave of charge by the Warriors!

The last two offensive tactics arranged by Avery Johnson were destroyed by the Warriors, and Nelson Sr seemed to be able to figure out every of his plans.

As for losing 18 points to the Clippers, it was a complete tragedy. The Mavericks' shooting rate in the whole game was only 38%, and the three-point shot was only 26%. How can there be an unlose?

Many people began to advocate a statement in the case of four consecutive defeats at the beginning of the Mavericks, that is, these cowboys have been completely defeated by the halberd in the finals.

"Dallas people should never expect to win the championship. Look at their mental state. It's a miracle to enter the playoffs this season!" This is an article written by their media.

Avery Johnson doesn't have the big heart of Popovich, let alone the exquisite tactics of D'Anthony, but this guy still firmly holds the lifeline of the Mavericks at this moment of collapse.

Just like this guy didn't get into the NBA for 16 years by draft, when everyone thought the Mavericks had collapsed, Avery Johnson took the cowboys and killed them back.

At the beginning of a four-game losing streak, and then the Mavericks suddenly made a 180-degree turn. After winning the Phoenix Suns 119:112 away, it was a seven-game winning streak.

Trail Blazers, Bulls, Grizzlies, Bobcats, Spurs, Hornets, Wizards, all of these seven teams have become the souls of the Mavericks.

The horns of the mad cow were stained with the blood of the strong in the west. Even the Spurs did not stop the strong counterattack of the old Texas neighbor.

The Mavericks also won a game in the Texas Civil War. Although the final score difference was only 3 points, the Mavericks did not give the Spurs another chance to lead from the beginning of the fourth quarter.

This kind of tight control ability is completely unexpected by many people, especially the Spurs, which is a little uncomfortable with the sudden outbreak of the Mavericks.

Popovich also commented after the game, "The Mavericks have recently shown the strength of the finals team. It has become difficult to beat them. They are getting stronger."

With such a pertinent evaluation, the media that ignored the Mavericks began to change their mouths.

Afterwards, Zhuge Liang, pig-like reporters also began to advocate again that the Mavericks could reach the finals again.

Dallas people will certainly not pay attention to those comments. After the collapse of the finals, these guys have also become a little bachelors, at least they will not be annoyed by some people's nonsense.

Now the Celtics are facing such a murderous team. Now the Green Shirts are looking for an opportunity to rise again, but his opponent is plotting to win the championship.

However, what makes Rivers scratch his head is not the recent crazy state of the Mavericks, but the team that has been baptized in the finals. In some ways, it is far stronger than the Celtics.

And now Siberdeau and Rivers are more worried about how to curb the Mavericks' attack. That group of madbulls, in the last seven games, only two times have scored less than 100 points.

Even if it is the defensive strength of the Spurs, it can only barely limit the Mavericks' score to 97 points.

"Even if the old Nelson guy is gone, the things he left behind in the Mavericks are all deep into the bone marrow of the mad cows. Kuban's team will never lack offensive firepower."

Siberdu has been relatively melancholy recently, because he found that every time the Celtics encounter a hard bone, it is a team that is good at offense.

Starting with the Suns, then the Warriors, and now the Mavericks that are about to meet, isn't it?

"Doug, I believe that this must be God testing the defensive system I built." In the face of such a series of offensive teams, Siberdeau could only smile bitterly.

Who said that now it is based on defense to win the championship? Is this fucking one-vote offensive team specially prepared for the Celtics? That's really the hell!

Rivers has far more to consider than Siberdeau. He not only pays attention to defensive issues, but also has a lot of things to think about in the team's offensive aspects.

From the moment Avery Johnson took over the team, in addition to trying to retain Nelson's offensive ability, he created a new set of defensive tactics for the Mavericks.

Now what Rivers needs to consider is whether the easy inside line he has been using in the previous games can continue to work on the Mavericks.

Although Danpiel's ability of the second center in the west in attack is negligible, Rivers did not forget that the Mavericks' sharpest horn knife is hanging on the inside line.

German Nuwitzki, a superstar who can do both inside and outside, let Jefferson and Chen Feng go together to touch this amazing pitcher who has averaged 28 points per game this season. I don't know how confident he is. More importantly, Nowitzki's containment ability, How much energy can the Celtics consume inside? Rivers can't give a specific answer to this now.

"That boy is going to hit hard this time is a difficult guy..." Looking at Nowitzki's gradually rising hit rate in recent games, Rivers is also a little nervous.

Can that wild boy compete with one of the best power forwards in the league? Maybe it will control the direction of the whole game.

A tricky and sharp horn knife hits a big open mountain knife...

Maybe this will be the first real fight that Chen Feng encountered.

(Well, I wanted to write more, but I'm really hungry...)
