Chapter 622 Not an opponent, no need to dodge

Chapter 622 Not an opponent, no need to dodge

On April 10, the Mavericks played against the Spurs at home.

The battle between bulls and horses, the opening match.

There are 82 games for each team in the NBA, but there are very few games that are really interesting. The most eye-catching ones are the opening game and the Christmas game.

The Christmas battles are all strong teams, championship-level team battles.

The opening game is more realistic.

The strength of the newly signed rookies and players, the matchup of opponents in the playoffs last season, and even the matchup of opponents in the finals are very interesting.

This year, the Mavericks and the Spurs are in the west, and the heat and the Pacers are in the east.

This is last year's opponent in the East and West Finals.

Gimmick.

But the practical significance is not great.

The grievances between the Heat and the Pacers have been fired over the past few seasons.

In fact, Eastern teams are full of opinions on the Heat.

The western team didn't feel it at all, that's because in the playoffs, the Heat were the final opponents, unlike the Eastern teams, they had to pass the Heat first to enter the finals.

The Big Three of the Heat held together at their peak, and they were like a big devil, which made people resentful.

All other teams are brave.

It's just the sacrifice of the brave. This year's opening game, the Pacers vs. the Heat, was originally a gimmick, but once James left, the game would be boring.

The demons are gone, what else is there to see.

The same is true of the western cattle and horse war.

The core of the Spurs, Leonard, was absent due to injury, and the team lacked guard Tony Parker. In this case, the opening game obviously lacked a lot of explosive points.

If there is no explosive point, there will be no attraction.

Meeting the Spurs again, Qin Yang clearly felt the aging of the Spurs.

Duncan's performance is still outstanding, but his dominance has dropped by more than one level. After this season, the Spurs can almost consider rebuilding.

The GDP portfolio separates, and the Mavericks enter a new era.

There is nothing like this when a new generation replaces an old one.

Duncan still efficiently scored 18 points, 13 rebounds and 3 assists on the inside, playing the Mavericks in pain.

But Nowitzki's data is equally good, 19 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists are not bad at all.

Qin Yang is still as steady as a dog with 32 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 steals.

The Mavericks played very well. Vince Carter didn't care about playing time and played healthy basketball. Seth Curry and Livingston got a chance. Garcia didn't play at all and was a melon eater off the court.

But Rudy Gay played very badly. After losing the ball, Rudy Gay didn't seem to know how to play. He made 12 of 3 in the game, got 8 points, 5 rebounds and 4 turnovers, which made the Mavericks feel bad.

If it weren't for Rudy Gay's wonderful performances in the first and third quarters, the bull-horse battle might have entered garbage time at halftime.

Such performance is obviously unsatisfactory.

After the game, TNT experts commented:

"Obviously, Rudy Gay is a data brush. If he gets enough possessions, he will behave like a superstar, get super data, and then the team loses. The Dallas people got a data brush with a two-year contract of 3000 million. Maybe the Mavericks will be in the first round of the Western Conference in a few years."

The expert's words instantly caused a sensation.

Where there is a topic, there is traffic.

People who eat melons from all walks of life began to watch the fight.

But Qin Yang directly suppressed Rudy Gay, who wanted to lash out at the experts in the media: "You don't need to do this. If you want to fight back, you should conduct tactical training and use your own performance to crush all injustices and doubts."

Rudy Gay nodded silently.

After staying in the Kings for the past few years, Rudy Gay has improved a lot.

With Cousins ​​as an idiot as a sparring partner, Rudy Gay finally discovered how an idiot is made.My mind cleared up a lot.

If it was the former Rudy Gay, if he was sprayed like this by experts, he would definitely spray it back.

Qin Yang advise?That is irresistible.

Much better now.

People always grow.

After persuading Rudy Gay, Qin Yang expressed his opinion in an interview the next day:

"Experts, I have never read the opinions of experts. If the opinions of experts can be counted, do we still need to compete? Do we still need to run in? Just let the experts say who is the champion of this season, and then award the championship to the other party. Everyone else just go to sleep!"

"Rudy is a good player. Maybe he's not the kind of superstar who can lead the team to a championship. He can't be LeBron James, Kobe, Jordan, but he will be Scottie Pippen."

"This year's Mavericks are stronger than last year, other teams should be careful,"

In order to disperse the firepower, Qin Yang first nursed Rudy Gay, and then started to spread hatred.

We are strong, stronger than last season's championship lineup, other teams should be careful, or they will be beaten by us.

Strong teams are so capricious.

Of course, when talking with teammates and coaches in the team later, Qin Yang explained the reason.

"Actually, if I say it or not, it won't make any difference. Other teams will target the Mavericks this year, and the league advertises it that way."

"Dirk, Al, Rudy, plus me, the team's strength is strong enough, and the others are also strong. If they go to other teams, they can all get the starting qualification. Therefore, even if I don't say anything, other teams will regard us as their biggest competitors."

"We can't hide!"

Everyone who Qin Yang said was speechless.

The situation this season is indeed different from last season. Last season, Qin Yang lacked a strong defensive core on the outside and still had a lot of shortcomings inside.

But this season, Gobert and Seth Curry are more mature, and Rudy Gay has made up for the shortcomings of the outside line. It can be said that under normal circumstances, the Mavericks are already a championship team.

Qin Yang had the guts to say that.

Although the Mavericks still have flaws, they are fine in terms of lineup and team status, and even in terms of overall strength, the Mavericks are the strongest of all the teams that Qin Yang has played for.

This season, Qin Yang is fearless.

And in the subsequent games, it also proved this point.

On October 10, the Mavericks played against the Nuggets at home.

After three quarters, Qin Yang clocked out of get off work.

Qin Yang scored 31 points and 8 assists, while Nowitzki scored 21 points and 3 rebounds. Both of them shot more than [-]% from the field, and their efficiency was frighteningly high.

The Jazz couldn't defend at all, and obediently conceded in three quarters.

鲁迪盖伊仍然发挥的一般，9分5篮板3助攻4失误的数据很全面，但是12中4的命中率仍然是很惨淡。

After all, a lot of this data was obtained during garbage time.

But it's not that there is no progress. At least Rudy Gay is not playing blindly, but is constantly looking for cooperation and running in with the team. This is a good sign.

On November 11, the Mavericks played away against the Partridge.

The Partridge team is very strong this season, forming a combination of Gordon, Anthony Davis and Tony Parker, both offensive and defensive, and Anthony Davis performed better than Nowitzki in this game.

Nowitzki met his opponent. He scored 19 of 8 in the game and scored 17 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. The efficiency value is relatively average.

But ... the Mavericks won again.
