Chapter 813 Shocking World War

Chapter 813 Shocking World War

"The Mavericks are of course very strong. I played in Dallas for two years and know the Mavericks very well, but I think the winner of this game will be us, because our offense is stronger, because I came to Golden State, and Dallas lacks a Kevin Durant."

Kevin Durant swelled.

This is what he said during the interview.

Of course, Kevin Durant has grievances in his heart.

During the off-season, Durant didn't think about staying with the Mavericks, and even Durant's wish was to stay with the Mavericks.

The only requirement is to give your own team control and possession of the ball.

Durant felt that he could not ask too much, because he won the first championship so destructively because of his outstanding performance.

The second championship suffered a little twists and turns because of the reduction of his possession of the ball.

Durant is confident in himself.

This looks fine.

But in fact, the Mavericks were not willing at all, and even the manager Nelson Jr. did not tell Qin Yang about it at all. After discussing it with Cuban, he directly refused.

Cuban is also not smart, but as the owner, he has led the team for so many years and knows that the stability of the team is the most important.

The bosses of the two teams, how can this be played.

At that time, the troubled team will be unhappy, and it will be a big loss because of a small loss.

Even if there is a defect in the small forward position, most of them will not win the championship this year. As long as Qin Yang is kept, it will be no problem to continue to strengthen next season.

To put it bluntly, the Mavericks must be more optimistic about Qin Yang than Kevin Durant.

I don't know how Durant's self-confidence came from.

No one else in the Warriors responded positively to this kind of talk.

Curry has a high emotional intelligence and didn't say a word. Even if Curry's possession of the ball has decreased a little this season and his offense with the ball has weakened, he often cooperates with him and has no objections.

As long as he can win the championship, it's okay to let Durant.

Durant's strength is indeed strong enough to make up for the Warriors' shortcomings.

Klay Thompson didn't say anything, because Klay Thompson's contract expires next year. With the salary situation of the Warriors, it is impossible to renew so many people.

In other words, there is a high probability that Klay Thompson will leave next year.

Give it a go this year, it's best to win the championship, if not, it depends on the team's choice when the contract is renewed next year.

Klay Thompson said nothing.

Both of them sacrificed the possession of the ball and the status of the team. They have no objection, and the predecessors have even more opinions.

But this is not the best way.

Contradictions remain.

On the side of the Mavericks, Gobert wanted to respond, but was stopped by Qin Yang: "Play well, this is just a regular season. If you have this energy, you can defend well in the next game. Winning the championship in the playoffs is the best choice."

Do not speak, see action is king.

On the 16th, the game officially started.

During the warm-up time, Qin Yang greeted the Warriors players. Even Durant, who was provocative before the game, came up and said a few words.

Provocations are provocations. Durant knows the seriousness and will not put on Qin Yang's face.

Curry still has a high emotional intelligence, and Carlisle Thompson also smiled very restrained.

However, Qin Yang could see the fighting spirit in their eyes. This game was not easy to play, and if he was not careful, he would lose.

The game starts soon.

The Warriors ruled out the dead five small lineups at the beginning.

Starting, Draymond Green, Kevin Durant, Iguodala, Klay Thompson, Stephen Curry.

This starter is strong.

The Mavericks are regular starters, Gobert, Nurkic, Paul George, Qin Yang, Brogdon.

During the regular season, Brogdon and James Ennis shared the starting time. The performances of the two have their own characteristics, and it is impossible to tell the good from the bad.

Jump ball, Gobert jump ball wins.

For the first ball, Qin Yang still played a pick-and-roll with Paul George. After the pick-and-roll, Qin Yang passed to Paul George who was running down.

Paul George made an emergency stop for a jumper and was blocked by Kevin Durant.

After the basketball was interfered and hit the backboard, Draymond Green got the rebound and passed it directly to Stephen Curry.

Curry made a fast break and passed to Klay Thompson.Qin Yang followed Curry, and Clayimpson faced Brogdon, jumping up and shooting directly.

Brogdon was a little slower, half a body away.

Klay Thompson took the lead and scored three points.

At the beginning of the game, it was not very easy to play.

The Mavericks attacked, and Nurkic made a screen. After the screen, Qin Yang broke through directly and Iguodala switched defenses.

Facing Iguodala, Qin Yang took a step back, bowed to Buddha, and hit the board easily from mid-range.

Qin Yang is really good at mid-range hits.

Maybe not as good as the future superstar Qin Zheng, but he is already at the top level in the league alone.

Warriors attack.

The outside line lacked pass and cut cooperation, and the direct lob was given to Kevin Durant. Durant directly singled Nurkic in the middle distance.

This is an obvious misalignment.

Nurkic's speed couldn't keep up, Kevin Durant broke through with a cross step and scored a layup directly.

The Warriors' offense has indeed become more stable this season, but it lacks a rapid and hearty cooperation. Curry and Klay Thompson's pass and cut cooperation has decreased a lot, but Kevin Durant's singles have increased.When it comes to critical moments, the ball belongs to Durant.

Singles for Durant has become an important tactic for the Warriors.

The game continues.

In the first quarter, the two teams played in full swing.

The Mavericks replaced Nurkic in the 6th minute because the latter was too slow and seriously affected the Mavericks' defense, especially when facing the Warriors, this defect was infinitely magnified.

Fortunately, the Mavericks replaced James Ennis.

Paul George played power forward against Kevin Durant.

This lineup would have been a wonder ten years ago.

But it is too normal at this stage. The fourth position with sufficient mobility is the standard configuration of every team in the league. It can be of average height and weight, but it must be fast, and it is better to defend against pick-and-rolls and breakthroughs.

Tactics changed.

The two teams turned out to be similar in a way.

They all have an inside line who is not good at attacking. The power forwards are all good at attacking. They all temporarily switch from small forwards to power forwards.

In this case, not to mention other things, it depends on the stability of the defense and the level of offensive efficiency.

The rest of the time, the two teams played crazy.

The Warriors felt hot, Durant became a spectator, Curry and Klay Thompson threw endless three-pointers, and it was really good.

Fortunately, the Mavericks' offense is not covered.

Paul George and Qin Yang are both in good shape, and Brogdon and James Ennis are also shooting very well. Offensively, they are not much weaker than the Warriors.

In the first quarter, the two teams scored a terrifying score of 49-46.

If the game continues like this, the final score must be more than 250 points, and it is very likely that the total score will move towards [-] points.

Among other things, the fans watched very happily.
