Chapter 746 The Wonderful Dynasty Team
At the end of the game, Anthony Davis was very unconvinced.
When talking to Qin Yang, Anthony Davis said with an unhappy tone: "Bruce, don't be too happy, I will win back when Cousins recovers from his injury."
Qin Yang shrugged, but didn't say anything.
It is true that Cousins was injured and unable to play, but it was useless if he really played.
It is no longer the NBA ten years ago. At that time, a super insider almost determined the strength of the team, but now the forward players are king.
The striker of the Partridge team... Tony Parker is old, Thaddeus Young is at best an All-Star substitute, and the others don't have much sense of presence.
The Mavericks won, as expected.
On the 30th, the Mavericks played against the Spurs at home.
At halftime, Popovich drooped his face and fell silent.
The gray-haired Popovich didn't speak, and seemed to be thinking about retiring.
The Spurs are now a team that combines inside and outside, with LaMarcus Aldridge on the inside and Kawhi Leonard on the outside, but neither of them is considered top.
Leonard's defense is very strong, and if he encounters an outside core leading the team, it is easy to take advantage.
In the past, every time Qin Yang met the Spurs, he found it difficult to play.
You can only use the pick-and-roll to cover the Spurs, but now that Durant is here, if Qin Yang attracts the defense, he will give it to Durant, and if Durant attracts the defense, he will give it to Qin Yang.
Playing other teams, the Mavericks like to play tactical coordination.
But against the Spurs, Qin Yang especially likes singles.
After Qin Yang beat Durant, he continued.
Just torture you to death.
Leonard is incapable of doppelganger, powerless, he has nothing to love in life, and he has nothing to worry about in death.After the whole game, Leonard made 16 of 5 and scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals with free throws.
The league began to tout the stars of many teams this season.
Leonard is just one of them.
In this game, Leonard's 13 free throws are proof. In contrast, Qin Yang and Durant only got 14 free throws, which is about the same size as one person.
This season, the average data of Qin Yang and Durant have dropped significantly. In addition to the decline in the number of shots, the number of free throws has also dropped significantly.
The meaning of this is self-evident.
After this game, the Mavericks have played 18 games this season and won all [-] games. Except for a few games, most of the Mavericks entered garbage time in three quarters. The strength of the Mavericks has already shocked the league.
Los Angeles News:
"The Dallas Mavericks' unprecedented combination of superstars has formed the most competitive team in the NBA. This season may really break the Bulls' record of 72 wins in the regular season."
New York News:
"As one of the most powerful players in the NBA today, the combination of Durant and Bruce Chin has made the league lose its competitiveness. Maybe if this continues, other teams can compete for draft picks as much as they want."
Chicago Post:
"The Dallas Mavericks are very strong, but it is very difficult to break the regular season record, because in the long season, it is difficult to guarantee the status and injury of the players. There are many Bulls in NBA history who are close to the Bulls led by Jordan, but in terms of record, no one can come close."
All the sports media recognize the strength of the Mavericks, but at the same time they don't want the Mavericks to continue to be strong, and they don't think the Mavericks can break the record.
In fact, it is very simple. It was purely a coincidence that the Bulls could create such a record.
In today's terms, the Bulls signed Scott Pippen, a historic all-star small forward with excellent offense and defense, with a contract with an annual salary of 300 million. The Bulls can form a super lineup immediately after the successful three consecutive championships.If it weren't for this accident, Jordan could not have become the god of basketball.And possibly pinned down by the Pistons' army of bad boys.
History is so amazing.
The Mavericks have similar issues.
Qin Yang's contract was signed two years ago, which is not very big. Durant also cut his salary. The first two insiders are all rookies, and they are all rookie contracts, which are very cheap.
But next year, the situation will be different.
Qin Yang's contract expires next year, and he will definitely sign a final contract at that time. After Gobert's rookie contract expires, it will also be a huge contract. The contract between the two and Durant's contract will almost eat up the salary space of the Mavericks.Others... can only sign with a basic salary.
Fortunately, the Mavericks are not stupid. Next year, the contracts of Al Jefferson and Nowitzki will expire one after another, and part of the salary will be vacated.
Otherwise, the team lineup cannot be saved.
Even so, it is impossible for the Mavericks, a role player whose contract is about to expire, to give a big contract, and other teams have also begun to grab it.
PJ Tucker, Livingston, Corey Brewer, etc., if you want to stay next year, the Mavericks must give at least a contract above the middle class, so the salary pressure on the Mavericks is also very high.
It is impossible for the lineup to remain as it is now.
Any NBA team that wants to form a dynasty will inevitably be called a luxury tax and have a very cost-effective contract.
The best way for the Mavericks is to sign some rookies.
For example, Brogdon, four years, five to six million, can be used for four years at a low price. If the time is right, renew the contract, and if it is not suitable, just choose someone else.
That's how the Mavericks will continue to be competitive.
At the end of November, neither Qin Yang nor Durant of the Mavericks was selected as the best player of the month, because the statistics of the two are not very good. In the limited time, the two averaged 19.7 points and 20.2 points per game, which is a bit worse than other superstars.
Immediately after the start of the game in December.
Since December, the Mavericks have started to move forward steadily.
Coach Carlisle also began to rotate for regular season record.The first rotation is veterans Dirk and Nowitzki, followed by James Ennis and PJK Tucker who have played a lot of outside games this season, and then Brogdon, Qin Yang and Kevin Durant are rotating separately.
Hood, Seth Curry and Corey Brewer did not rotate due to too little playing time. Instead, they got a lot of playing opportunities when others rotated.
Hood had a performance of 22 points and 10 rebounds, while Seth Curry broke out with 28 points and 8 assists. The outstanding performance of the two also made the media exclaim that the Mavericks' bench is too strong.
This kind of player has played very little time this season, and the Mavericks are simply unstoppable.
On December 12, the Mavericks played away against the Hornets and crushed them with a sweep.
On December 12, the Bulls hosted the Bulls.As a result, it entered garbage time after halftime.
On the 5th, the Mavericks played against the Hornets at home and won easily again.
On the 7st, the Mavericks played against the Kings at home.
After losing LaMarcus Cousins, the Kings were helpless.Qin Yang scored 41 points and 22 assists in a single game, breaking his own record again.
Immediately afterwards, the Mavericks beat the Pacers to win at home.
After the game, the media broke the news that Paul George hoped to be traded to the Lakers, otherwise he would not renew his contract.This shocked everyone.
In fact, in the past few years in the Pacers, Pickled Pepper has played well, and the Pacers are also good to Paul George. In the case of George's broken leg and serious injury, he still persists, which is satisfactory.
But Paul George still has to leave.
And the team to go is the Lakers.
Paul George has always been a supporter of the Lakers, and he hopes to play for the Lakers. Qin Yang thinks this kind of thinking is very stupid.If you like the Lakers, you want to play for the Lakers?
Do most of the league's stars have to die to play for the Bulls?
Because most of the superstars are Jordan fans.
