196【Christmas Battle】

The Christmas battle of the 2012019 season slowly came amid people's expectations and hot discussions.

In every focus competition, the weather vane of the entire public opinion will be fully reflected.

So, either paying attention to the Los Angeles Lakers or the Toronto Raptors, on this day, everyone has turned their attention to the teams and players they support and look forward to.

For Dallasians, counting the time, they seem to have been absent from the Christmas war for a long time.

In the post-Decnowski era, although the Dallas Mavericks belonged to the big city team, they were always unfavorable and had been missing the Christmas battle in recent seasons.

I have to say that this is a real regret and helplessness.

However, all this has changed with the joining of the Bayonet this season.

The traffic and popularity carried by the bayonet itself are extremely terrifying, so terrifying that the league officials have to face up to its existence.

Judging from this season, the Dallas Mavericks not only have the quota for the Christmas game, but even the number of live broadcasts across the United States is one generation higher than last season.

All of this is thanks to the bayonet.

So, Dallas are even waiting for the beginning of this Christmas war with gratitude.

Although the opponent tonight is the strong Philadelphia 76ers, in fact, the current Dallas Mavericks fans are not afraid of any team in the league.

From the beginning of the new season to now, the Dallas Mavericks have achieved the best record in the league. Until now, they have only lost 3 games, making them the team with the highest winning rate in the entire league.

One data that makes Dallas Mavericks fans more confident is that when they encounter other top teams in the league this season, the Dallas Mavericks have not lost yet, and maintain a 100% terrifying winning rate. This is no wonder many people are joking that Rick Carlisle should think of a way to not let the team always lose in front of weak teams, because if this continues, they may be hacked in the first round of the playoffs.

"This will be the first time I played the Christmas battle in my career. Obviously, I am looking forward to the Christmas battle. Whether it is us or the Philadelphia 76ers, they are very strong teams. So, the winner of this game is 55, of course, I have the confidence to lead the team to win the Christmas battle."

In the interview before the game, Baeklade looked very confident. He gave enough expectations for the upcoming Christmas battle. At the same time, he also continued his usual style, that is, he was confident enough.

As he said, the Philadelphia 76ers are very strong, but they are still a little short of it in front of the Dallas Mavericks.

"Although I entered NB earlier than him, I have to admit that he is my idol, yes, that's it. He lets people know what the strongest rookie is, and he encourages us young players. As long as we remain aggressive, we are really no worse than those middle-aged or even old players, and rookies can win the championship."

The Emperor Enbid, who has always been unrestrained, arrogant and extremely confident, unexpectedly gave the bayonet enough affirmation before the game. To be honest, this is unbelievable.

Because in everyone's impression, Embiid is the master of fighting against the sky and the earth. Not only does he have conflicts with many star players during the game, but even outside the court, few players can catch his eye.

Although he is very strong and has a good talent, to be honest, his attitude has caused him a lot of trouble.

In this case, he was able to actively express his admiration for the bayonet.

Is this showing weakness or?

"This is two different things. Man, although the bayonets are excellent, but listen, the Philadelphia 76ers are definitely not weak this season, and our goal is the O'Brien Cup."

Is this just right?

People breathed a sigh of relief.

Just say it?

How could Embiid show weakness with his temper?

The Bayonet said he could lead the Dallas Mavericks in defending home glory, while Emperor Embiid said the Philadelphia 76ers were capable of defeating any team this season.

So, in this case, the Christmas battle between these two teams has attracted a lot of attention invisibly.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, at the home court of the Dallas Mavericks, the game officially began with the referee's whistle.

As Embiid said, the Philadelphia 76ers are really good this season, which can be seen from their starting lineup.

Ben Simmons, Redick, Jimmy Butler, Dario Sharic, Embiid!

This is a young and starter lineup with outstanding athletic ability and both offense and defense. It is no exaggeration to say that the Philadelphia 76ers' starting lineup is enough to rank among the top three.

Until now this season, the Philadelphia 76ers have also achieved good results from this starting lineup.

So far, their record ranks second in the East, second only to the Eastern Conference leader Toronto Raptors.

It is worth noting that they have defeated the Toronto Raptors before.

In the eyes of many people, the Eastern Conference champion this season is either the Toronto Raptors or the Philadelphia 76ers.

In other words, Emperor Embiid did not speak loudly. This season's Philadelphia 76ers do have the strength to compete for the O'Brien Cup.

Before this Christmas game, the Philadelphia 76ers won five consecutive victories, among which the 2017 No. 1 pick Ben Simmons was in a hot state, especially in the organization of offense, with an average of 10 and 3 assists per game, which sorted out the offense of the Philadelphia 76ers only and was the biggest contributor to the team's five consecutive victories.

In this case, when Ben Simmons faces the bayonet in this Christmas battle tonight, the story is too long.

Judging from the draft pick, Ben Simmons was the No. 1 pick in 2017, while Baeks was the last show.

Judging from the performance of the rookie in his first season, although both were selected for the Best Rookie Team, for well-known reasons, Ben Simmons easily won the Best Rookie, while the Bayonet won the Most Valuable Player in the O'Brien Cup and the Finals.

To be honest, the Bayonets' performance in the rookie season completely crushed Ben Simmons, because Jiang Hao was on the Spurs and was mostly a substitute in the regular season, so he couldn't compete for the best rookie.

As for the later defeating all sides in the playoffs and winning the O'Brien Cup and the Finals' Most Valuable Player, this is simply unimaginable for Ben Simmons.

The judgment is made immediately.

However, the two of them are both rookies in 2017. The best way is to face each other in the game, such as on a stage like Christmas battle, which is more obvious.

From another perspective, Ben Simmons is not bad either. With the halo of "LeBron James' successor", his performance in his first season in the rookie is completely worthy of the best rookie. After his second season in the rookie this season, he also ushered in a big explosion.

Although the Philadelphia 76ers now have Jimmy Butler, to be honest, if they had not been Ben Simmons, their attack would have been like a moment of losing their souls.

On the court, the Dallas Mavericks were the first to attack. As the schedule deepened this season, Luka Doncic was indeed becoming another big surprise to the Dallas Mavericks.

Luka Doncic this season is definitely the best player in the Dallas Mavericks.

So far, he can deliver impressive data that averages 145 points, 92 assists and 22 steals per game. You should know that he is a first-year rookie.

In the eyes of many people, Luka Doncic this season is no worse than Ben Simmons last season, and he is also the most popular candidate for the best rookie this season.

After Luka Doncic carried the ball to the frontcourt, she performed very calmly. Facing Redick's pressing defense, she used her excellent ball-handling skills to get rid of it, and then broke through and passed the ball, giving it to Matthews in the left corner.

Matthews took the sword and helped the Mavericks get 3 points first.

The whole process went smoothly and looked perfect.

The Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle nodded with satisfaction. One of the unspoken rules of the NB game is to find a shooter in the first attack of the game.

After one-third of the season's training, Luka Doncic has obviously known this. In other words, in his eyes, Luka Doncic is definitely a teaching-oriented child.

With the Philadelphia 76ers' offense, Ben Simmons' first reaction was to find a shooter after he held the ball and pushed into the frontcourt. However, Redick seemed to be completely entangled by Matthews, and he could not hand the ball over to Redick.

And he himself?

To be honest, the Mavericks did not defend himself at the top of the arc, but were only guarding against his breakthrough. It seems that the whole world knows that Ben Simmons is not good at three-point shooting.

Ben Simmons eventually handed the ball to Jimmy Butler.

Jimmy Butler is not good-looking, but he is definitely one of the toughest guys in the league.

Jiang Hao likes players like Jimmy Butler, and he also knows that such players are not as easy as he imagined to deal with.

But he still approached Jimmy Butler without hesitation. He could not have seen Jimmy Butler send the ball easily into the basket.

At the right side of the free throw line, facing Jiang Hao's defense, Jimmy Butler hesitated. He knew very well what kind of player the Bayonet was. Although this guy didn't look very strong, he was one of the league's recognized representative players with both offense and defense.

In other words, the bayonet in front of you is also very good at defensively.

So, he hesitated, and the shrimp that he had not taken away from his wrist, which he had planned to take action, slipped.

This led to problems with his shooting angle even though he completed his shot.

Hun!

The basketball hit the basket.

The rebound was firmly held in his hands by DeAndrew Jordan. Embiid, who faced him, was honest and did not even have the courage to get stuck.

Because for Embiid, he knew his strengths and his body was easily injured. In order to avoid sitting on the injured table again, sometimes he had to be smarter, otherwise he would easily suffer losses.
