Chapter 787 Durant's Flaw
There are still many doubts about the determination of the team's future signing.
But what is certain is that the direction has been determined, and what we need to do now is to contact in advance and make preparations. Many signings in the NBA are not carried out at the time, and they are often finalized after a long time of preparation.
On February 2, the Mavericks played against the Clippers at home.
In this game, Kevin Durant is back.
Durant's injuries have all healed, and in order not to leave hidden dangers, he rested for more than a week and healed several other minor injuries on his body.
In addition to Kevin Durant who played, the offensive end...almost cheated his teammates.
It's been a long time since I played a game, and Durant's hand feels very awkward.
Fortunately, Durant contributed a lot on the defensive end, scoring a triple-double of 16 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. Qin Yang easily scored 41 points and led the team to victory.
The Mavericks have been on track since then.
Durant returned, the Mavericks began to rotate.
The first rotation is Qin Yang.
In the past period of time, Qin Yang really worked hard. Many fans and experts only saw that Qin Yang increased his playing time. According to the statistics report, his average score per game was close to 40. However, after such a long playing time, Qin Yang was as tired as a dog every game, so no one noticed.
With Durant back, Qin Yang can rest for three or four days.
Before the All-Star game, Qin Yang will not participate in the game.
On the 8th, the Mavericks played away against the Warriors.
The Warriors' dead five played again. Durant played power forward, but his coping ability was not good enough. He played small forward and was targeted by the Warriors, and he did not perform well enough.
Throughout the game, Durant scored 40 points, but failed to lead the team to victory.
On the contrary, the point difference is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no resistance.
Before the game, many experts also said that Durant and Qin Yang lead the team sequentially, which can better reflect the difference in strength between the two, and Qin Yang is almost as good as Durant than in versatility.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face.
After only Durant was left on the court, he returned to the old Thunder routine. Durant played singles and the others pulled away.
The Mavericks wanted to cooperate, but the Clippers' defense was a little better, so they couldn't cooperate.
Like James with his own system, Durant started playing singles again.
The team is not integrated at all.
This is Durant's flaw, almost impossible to restrain.Just like James has his own system, Durant also has his own singles system.
Losing to the Splash Brothers is actually nothing.
After all, the combination of Klay Thompson and Drummond Green is very defensive, and Chasing Green almost fought Durant in this game.
But then, facing the Raptors, the Mavericks lost again.
The Raptors have a good regular season record this season, second only to the Mavericks, Warriors, and Rockets in the league, and even better than the Cavaliers and Celtics.
It's unbelievable.
Dwayne Casey, the former defensive coach of the Mavericks, was very successful in leading the Raptors.
Defense is crucial to a team winning.
Dwayne Casey has been recognized by everyone in the league. This season, he will be a strong contender for the best coach.
After losing to the Raptors, the Mavericks lost again, to the Rockets.
The Rockets Harden scored 33 points, Chris Paul scored 28 points, and led the team to win. Kevin Durant played poorly under Mbah a Moute's full-court targeting.
After the game, the media began to run on Durant:
"Kevin Durant may be the biggest leg-hugging superstar in the league. Without Bruce, he can't lead the team to win a game."
"Compared to Bruce, Durant is one LeBron James behind!"
This is the worst first time Durant has been hacked.
Of course, James also lies innocently.
This season, the record of the Cavaliers is unexpectedly poor. The joining of Derrick Rose and Dwyane Wade did not make the Cavaliers stronger. At the same time, the conflict between Tristan Thompson, JR Smith and Kevin Love is also growing.
Losing three games in a row, the Mavericks are also under great pressure.
Fortunately, at this time, the Lakers came out to take the blame.
The Lakers are terribly weak this season. Even with Millsap joining, the Lakers are still weak, and it is impossible to enter the playoffs this season.
Durant led the team and easily crushed it.
After that came the Kings, and the Mavericks won again. After two consecutive victories, the league was able to take a break, and the superstars and rookies ushered in the All-Star Game.
The 2018 All-Star Game has not changed much from last year, but the rules are more abundant.
On the 14th, Qin Yang and James came to Madison Square Garden for a live broadcast.
This year, it is still Qin Yang who leads the team against James. The All-Star starters are selected just like the substitutes. Now what the two have to do is to select their own teammates.
After James came to power, the first choice is still Kevin Durant.
The two superstars of the Mavericks this year, Qin Yang and Kevin Durant, have been hacked for a while, and they have been blown up for a while, but in general, if the league has a strength ranking list, Qin Yang is first, James is second, and Durant is probably third.
In addition to James Harden, Stephen Curry.
Everyone else has to stay back.
So James can only choose Durant.
Qin Yang chose Paul George very casually.
Immediately afterwards, the starters of the James team were quickly confirmed, Durant, Kelly Irving, Embiid, James Harden.
The Qinyang team's starters are Stephen Curry, Paul George, DeRozan, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Anthony Davis.
In terms of substitutes, James chose: Lillard, Bradley Beal, Klay Thompson, Russell Westbrook, Drummond Green, Towns, Porzingis
Qin Yang chose: John Wall, Oladipo, John Wall, Kyle Lowry, LaMarcus Aldridge, Al Horford, Jimmy Butler.
After selecting the lineup, Qin Yang called his future teammates one by one.
No. 15, a restaurant in Chinatown, Los Angeles.
Qin Yang received his teammates from the All-Star Game.
After the gathering, Qin Yang was not polite, and started to say directly:
"I think everyone should have heard what happened before. This time the All-Star Game is still the old rule. Whoever has the idea of winning the MVP can speak for himself, and everyone can cooperate."
The Qin Yang team has changed a few new players, but they have also heard rumors about Qin Yang, and this time the rumors are true.
In front of the honor of MVP of the All-Star Game, Qin Yang did not hide it at all.
There are so many people in the Qinyang team, most of them have no idea. Stephen Curry and Anthony Davis have won it.
So in the end there are only two people who have an idea.
Paul George and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
After confirming it, Qin Yang also began to communicate with his teammates about tactical cooperation.
Team Qin Yang's tactics this year... are as simple as ever.
