210: The Mavericks were abused in the starting lineup(1/3)

The Mavericks' five-strong team can be said to be very strange, including point guard Nash, shooting guard Finley, small forward Adrian Griffin, power forward Walter Williams, and center Dirk!

That's right, the Mavericks' 12-game winning streak was achieved with Nowitzki playing center.

Because the team's main center Reeve LaFrentz was injured and absent, Nelson started his crazy experiment, letting Nowitzki play the five position, and he played the fast tornado to perfection.

As expected, Nowitzki was overwhelmed on the defensive end.

But does Nelson care? Not really.

Because this lineup can allow the Mavericks to score more points on the opponent's head!

Take the last game as an example. Yao Ming and Francis both scored 20 points efficiently. Even someone like Yasuko, who insists on playing basketball despite his innate IQ, can score 16 points on the Mavericks.

The Bulls' offense is actually best like this.

But the Mavericks relied on Nowitzki's astonishing 42 points in a single game to clearly arrange the Bulls' game.

This extreme style of play caught most teams off guard and didn't know how to defend them, so the Mavericks went on to win 12 consecutive games.

A real man just wants to attack!

Cuban even once believed that LaFrentz's injury actually removed a shackles from Nelson.

Now, he can do things openly that others dare not do.

To put it nicely: Our main center is injured, and I can’t do anything about it.

It's like a middle-aged man who sees his wife and children returning to her parents' home for a few days. On the surface, he is reluctant to leave, but in fact he is very happy in his heart.

The Mavericks' crazy offense and the Pistons' previous terrible defense simply put every team in the league into trouble.

The two heavens of ice and fire.

Now, these two teams are finally going to kill each other, and the rest of the league is happy to see it.

Now, let you also taste the feeling of being tortured by each other!

Li Ang took a look at the Mavericks' lineup. It was the same as the previous 12 games. They really didn't defend.

Nash himself is a big colander, Walter Williams at the fourth position is too short and light, and Nowitzki has never been a very good defender.

so......

Carlisle's strategy might actually work!

The Pistons' side is the same as in the previous games, with Okur replacing the injured Ben, and the other four players remain unchanged.

In fact, Li Ang hopes that Prince can replace Michael Curry. Under this tactic, Prince can exert greater energy than the old Michael.

But Carlisle has his own persistence, and he still doesn't trust a first-year rookie.

If there were no other options, Okuku, who is also a first-year student, would never be able to play.

At the beginning of the game, Okur won the first offensive ball from Nowitzki.

As for defense, Nelson doesn't have many requirements for this Mavericks.

After Li Ang attacked, he discovered that the person defending him was not Nowitzki, but Walter Williams.

Walter Williams was the No. 7 pick in 1992, but due to injuries he did not fully realize his talent. At his peak, he was only 16 5 2.

Now coming to Dallas, Walter Williams' role can be summed up in one word - 3D.

From beyond the three-point line, Walter Williams has a shooting percentage of nearly 40%.

In addition, his style on the court is also very tough and he is not afraid of confrontation on the defensive end.

Nelson would not stupidly let Nowitzki face off against Leon. In his opinion, this was a pure waste of physical energy.

Normally, when the Pistons attack, the ball will pass through the hands of Leon, Hamilton and Billups.

The ball has to be rotated in their hands, and it is rare for someone to play directly in isolation.

It seems that the Pistons' offensive routine is the same as before.

The on-site commentator couldn't help but joke: "Although Ben Wallace's absence has a great impact on the Pistons' defense, on the offensive end, the Pistons are almost the same as before hahahaha."

Big book watching TV:......

If I were here, I would have to put a piston on your head into your anus to let you know what a piston is!

My super center, who averages nearly 7.6 points per game, is being said so badly by you?

Do you know what it means to average 7.6 points per game in the NBA?

I am an integral part of the team's offense!

Nelson agreed with this.

Big Ben is indeed an indispensable part. Without Big Ben now, the Mavericks' defense cannot be as good as four or five. It is really a pity.

Just when everyone thought the Pistons' offense would continue to spin in the hands of Billups and the other three, Billups passed the ball directly to Leon.

Then Hamilton stopped moving, and Okur stopped picking and rolling.

The remaining four players stood outside the three-point line, watching Li Ang hold the ball alone.

Because Okur also had a three-pointer, Nowitzki had to follow him out.

For a moment, there was only Walter Williams between Li Ang and the basket!

Li Ang began to alternately dribble with his right hand, while Williams lowered his center of gravity and lifted his trouser legs.

Li Ang? It seems to be very popular this year. I want to see what abilities you, a young man, have!

"Whoosh!"

Williams only felt a gust of wind blowing, and Li Ang "disappeared".

Turning his head again, Li Ang had already entered the three-second zone.

Williams' defense is of the same nature as Laoyu's.

You can't say they didn't defend well, and you can't say he was just pretending.

They are indeed not afraid of confrontation and are active in defense.

I think back then, Laoyu was able to hold up James on the defensive end.

However, they all move at very fast lateral speeds.

Unless you rush towards him in a straight line, he basically can't stop you.

But then again, who is a serious basketball player who would rush towards the defender in a straight line?

Li Ang just made a slight change of direction and easily passed Williams.

Then, under the watchful eyes of all the fans, he performed a 180° back dunk.

"Hey, this Li Ang does have two brushes!" Williams exclaimed.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Dallas fans were a little surprised, because before the game started, no one thought that the first scorer would be the Pistons, who relied on defense.

Everyone thought that the Pistons would bring the Mavericks' offense to the same level as their own, and then use their rich fighting experience to defeat them.

Seeing that Li Ang's attack was so easy, Carlisle nodded in relief.

Of course, the first round doesn't mean anything.

Today's game will never be as easy as the previous game against the Jazz.

This will be a protracted battle!

After all, if you want to win against Karl Malone's team, you only need to have the right skills, but it's different if you want to win against Dirk's team.

Although Li Ang showed off a back dunk as soon as he came up, there was no reaction from the Mavericks generals.

There wasn't even a slight change in expression.

This made Li Ang a little embarrassed.

no......

Don’t you have anything to express your feelings about?

For example, "Damn, that's so fast" or "Damn, what a cool dunk".

I'm so embarrassed when you don't respond at all!

What are men most afraid of? It’s that you’ve been using it hard for a long time, but they don’t react at all.

If the other party adds "It's gone" at this time, my dear, this is enough to make a man's self-esteem collapse directly!

The Mavericks used their strength to explain what it means as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

"Chauncy, what happened to my dunk just now?" Li Ang panicked and couldn't help asking Billups.

"It's nothing?"

"Then it's like they didn't see it."

Li Ang was simply overly worried. The Mavericks' lack of reaction was not because there was something wrong with his dunk, but because the Mavericks were used to it.

As the saying goes, attack with a kaleidoscope and defend with a thousand people.
