One Guard

Yiyang's wonderful performance made the balance of victory seem to be tilted, but soon, Nowitzki's super fiery touch took all of Yiyang's limelight. 【】

Originally, the biggest highlight of this game was the duel between Duncan and Nowitzki. Nowitzki's consecutive goals at the end of the second quarter undoubtedly ignited the hearts of all fans.

Dirk first hit a three-pointer after receiving a pass from Yiyang from the outside, and then made two consecutive jump shots from the inside with a turnaround.

If you thought Nowitzki's sudden effort would give the Mavericks a lead, you'd underestimate the San Antonio Spurs.

George Hill, who was replaced by **Vitch, directly beat Terry to the ground. The first quarter was Demon Sword, and in the second quarter another Hill was killed. In fact, this is also exposed. The Mavericks' defense at the second position is indeed too weak. Even if Carlisle replaced Stevens at the last minute, it didn't help.

At the end of the second quarter, the score became 51 to 49, and the Mavericks temporarily led by two points.

With 4 points and 3 assists, Yiyang's statistics in the first half of the game are not impressive at all. Many TV stations have claimed that the San Antonio Spurs deserve to be a rookie killer. Even Yiyang, who has been making great progress this season, stopped in San Antonio.

But Carlisle is very clear that Yiyang just doesn't have many opportunities to perform. He was too nervous and cautious in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, Nowitzki took too many shots. Yiyang just needs to keep going, there is no need to make too many adjustments. The problem now is that the Spurs will always have unexpected attack points popping up.

In the beginning, it was the "Demon Sword" who scored 16 points in a single quarter, and now it is George Hill who beat Terry so hard. For Carlisle, who has relatively weak on-the-spot adaptability, the scattered attack points of the Spurs are really tricky.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Carlisle first used Yiyang to face Hill on the defensive end. The effect of this is very obvious, and the number of opportunities for Hill to get a lot less. After holding the ball, it is also difficult for Hill to break through Yiyang, who is much taller than Terry.

On the other hand, the duel between Duncan and Nowitzki can still be described as in full swing. The battle between the two historic No. 4 positions completely turned everyone else into a show.

In the middle of the third quarter, Ginobili played again, and frequently stood on the free throw line by making breakthroughs and continuing to score points. On the side of the Mavericks, Kidd, who replaced Yiyang, also showed full firepower for a rare sight.

Kidd made 2 of 3 shots from beyond the three-point line, and Parker was once again scolded by Vicki.

The offensive frenzy of both sides was higher and higher,

The confrontation on the defensive end is also getting tougher. If both sides were still testing each other in the first two quarters, then in the second half, the Texas Civil War could be said to have reached its most intense stage.

In the end, the third quarter of the game between the two sides was still tied at 22, with a total score of 73 to 71, and the point difference was still 2 points. The degree of anxiety in the game can be seen. Yiyang made only one shot in the third quarter and scored 2 points and 2 assists.

The offense and defense between Duncan and Nowitzki has become a topic that everyone talks about, not to mention the mediocre Yiyang, even Ginobili who scored 16 points in the first quarter is almost forgotten by people .

"What do you think is the key to the victory of both sides in the fourth quarter!?" During the intermission, Kenny Smith threw a question to Barkley who was sitting next to him.

"Which team, Tim or Dirk, can persevere to the end, will be the final winner!" Although Barkley's answer was meant to be joking, it was not unreasonable. After the third quarter of the game was dominated by two four positions, people only had pictures of Dirk and Duncan fighting again and again in their minds.

However, the two coaches, Vicky and Carlisle, who attach great importance to the team, will not hand over the victory to any single player.

"Parker's state is terrible today, both offensively and defensively! Stretch him! Restrict him from scoring and passing the ball on the defensive end, and use this to share the pressure on Dirk on the offensive end! They thought you were done playing today, Tell those guys, it's too early to make a conclusion!" Carlisle drew a red circle on his tactical board, and the red circle was Tony Parker's name.

He wasn't saying this to Kidd, but was making the final arrangements for Yiyang. Carlisle knew very well that the young Yiyang was more effective in the fourth quarter than the exhausted Kidd.

The game restarted, and the loud shouts in the ATT Center almost shattered Yiyang's eardrums.

The Mavericks attacked first, and this time Duncan used a forward defense against Nowitzki. Yiyang wanted to hoist the ball from the experienced Duncan's head to Dirk's hands, but it was not an easy task.

Yiyang slowed down and fixed his eyes on Dirk, as if he wanted to pass the ball. At this moment, Dallas One suddenly made a quick change of direction and started to break through, killing Parker by surprise.

Parker tried his best to stay close to Yiyang, but Yiyang's speed really made Parker feel very difficult. Under Parker's interference, Yiyang stretched out his long arms for a layup. Fortunately, Parker is not the kind of guard who is good at physical confrontation, otherwise Yiyang might really suffer. The basketball went into the net, and Yiyang opened the scoring with a breakthrough for the first goal.

In the transition between offense and defense, Parker was struggling under Yiyang's pressing defense. Fortunately, Ginobili came out to respond very timely, which allowed Parker to play the ball safely.

Yaodao, who scored 16 points in a single quarter, would not be stingy with opportunities. The Argentine shot from beyond the three-point line without completely getting rid of the defense. This guy may be the most "unreasonable" player in the entire Spurs team.

But Ginobili's fiery touch didn't last. Under Terry's interference, the three-pointer swiped around in the frame, but it still slipped out.

After Chandler got the rebound, he threw it so hard that even the speed of the camera couldn't keep up with the flight trajectory of the basketball. When the camera moved to the Spurs half court, Yi Yang had already made an easy layup.

It turned out that Yiyang had already started quickly and ran to the frontcourt. The suddenness of his sneak attack made the experienced Parker not expect it.

After scoring four points in a row, Yiyang also helped the Mavericks gain a 6-point lead. And this is the biggest lead the Mavericks have ever had in this game.

In the third round, Parker's organization proceeded quite steadily. In the end, the Frenchman circled around the screen and returned to the mid-range position. Duncan, who was holding the ball, responded with a pass, allowing Parker to get a mid-range shot.

Parker didn't hesitate. Although he didn't feel good today, it's even more pity to waste the opportunity.

But what the French didn't expect was that Yiyang Neng would come back to him so soon. In order to avoid Yiyang's long arm, Parker had to increase the arc of his shot. However, this tune made the thrown basketball hit the basket's neck directly.

The active Yiyang immediately turned around, leaped high, and grabbed a defensive rebound even before the "Champion".

After getting the basketball, Yiyang didn't have a steady rhythm like before, but advanced quickly!

This Dallas No. 1 nimbly passes through the crowd, passing several opponents to complete a one-stop layup, which is Yiyang's specialty when he was in college!

But in the NBA, it is not so easy for Yiyang to succeed. Parker, who is chasing after Yiyang, has never stopped having physical contact with Yiyang. He knows that attacking under physical contact has always been Yiyang's weakness.

However, after Yiyang stepped into the three-second zone, he did not continue his momentum of scoring consecutively to go it alone, but suddenly passed from his crotch backwards. After receiving the basketball, Terry, who followed up, did not make a layup by himself as people thought, but shot the ball diagonally backward again.

The "German Chariot" stepped up to grab the basketball in two big strides, jumped and dunked directly! Duncan didn't dare to foul, because sending the German to the free throw line was no different from sending the Mavericks directly to score. Instead of letting the opponent hit three points, it is better to give him two points.

Therefore, Dirk hung up the frame vigorously and completely seized the momentum of the game. After the slam dunk, the commentators did not praise Dirk, but Yiyang! This guy who seemed to disappear in the first three quarters now helped the Mavericks lead by 8 points in one go!

Still Duncan, this stone-like man will always stand up at the team's most critical moment. He put a Band-Aid on the Spurs' wounds with a casual floater in the paint. It's a seemingly casual but deadly style of play that's exactly what Duncan is doing right now.

But soon, Yiyang tore the band-aid with his own pass. It's not that he completed another assist, but that after his pass came to Chandler's hands, he forced the undersized Blair to foul Chandler.

Tyson Chandler used to be the poster child for big men who can't make free throws, but last season with the Bobcats, Chandler's free throw percentage improved considerably. This season, Chandler's performance at the free throw line is even better.

Although now is the critical moment to determine the outcome of the match, the "Champion of Boxers" is not relenting. He made two free throws and the point difference became 8 points again. This uppercut punched the Spurs hard enough.

Tens of seconds later, the hasty whistle sounded again. DeJuan Blair fouled Chandler twice in a row because Yi Yang used a no-look pass and hit the basket again!

Blair, who was not tall enough, had no choice but to foul, but unfortunately, Tyson Chandler made two free throws again, and the 8-point difference continued!

Subsequently, Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough came back out of the arena, allowing the Argentine to get his first point in the fourth quarter.

Ke Yiyang was relentless, and Parker was caught off guard by his breakthrough after calling the pick-and-roll. Facing Yiyang, who had sent out three wonderful passes in a row, everyone thought he would continue to pass.

But when Yiyang jumped directly to the basket, Blair finally realized that he wanted to block it.

But Blair, who was half a beat behind, failed to stop Yiyang. Yiyang tried to maintain his body balance in the air, threw the basketball to the backboard, and was knocked heavily to the ground.

Yiyang felt a sharp pain in his back, but when he saw the basketball thrown by him go into the net, the No. 1 guard suddenly gained strength and jumped up from the ground!

"Three-point chance! Blair made a big mistake on the defensive end!" Counting Chandler's four free throws, this is already Blair's sixth point lost. Barkley was sweating for the short center forward who was arguing with the referee, and when he returned to the locker room, Vicki might swallow this guy alive.

The interference from the fans at the ATT Center didn't affect Yiyang in the slightest, and this Tanhuaxiu shot. The basketball bumped and bumped, but it still fell into the net without any risk. The Mavericks succeeded with a three-pointer, and the point difference became 9 points!

Afterwards, Vicky replaced George Hill again. As soon as Hill came on the field, he used a breakthrough to "stalk" Terry again. But even with Hill's layup, the Spurs were still 7 points behind. The game time is running out.

This time, Yiyang did not attack by himself, but directly gave the ball to Nowitzki.

Everyone thought that Nowitzki would continue to play singles with Duncan, after all, that area had been emptied.

However, Yiyang, who had been walking slowly to the left outside the three-point line, suddenly turned back and accelerated, throwing Parker away in one fell swoop. Dirk, holding the ball with his back on his back, saw Yiyang cut in from the middle and hit the ground directly. Yiyang received the basketball, took two big steps, and immediately got up and dunked!

Blair's brave charge made Yiyang fly out of the baseline again, but before that, Yiyang's right hand had dunked the ball into the basket!

Chandler immediately pushed Blair away and rushed to Yiyang. Yiyang grabbed the forearm of the "Champion" and stood up, seemingly unaffected.

"This is really a solid defender!" Countless American colleagues exclaimed in amazement. There are probably not many Asian defenders as tough as Yiyang.

Subsequently, Parker's breakthrough layup was knocked out under the interference of Yiyang. At that moment, **vich directly smashed the tactical board in his hand. All tactics are futile under the sudden outbreak of a player!

Yiyang drove straight in, but was hugged by Parker ahead of time. But unfortunately, Yiyang still made two free throws. At this time, ESPN gave Yiyang's game statistics for today at the bottom of the screen. With 17 points and 7 assists, people are a little surprised. When did this defender who seemed to disappear before score 17 points?

Looking back, there is a cold "11" written under the column of scoring in the fourth quarter. Yiyang scored 11 points in a single quarter, which almost caused the San Antonio Spurs to collapse!

** After Vicky got angry, he sat back on the bench, that damn Dallas No. 1, how could God let him pass by the Spurs? If the Spurs had successfully acquired him...

The white-haired old man couldn't help sighing.
