One Guard

Genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! "Fuck, that damn Chinese!" After being replaced, Howard looked very irritable. Unexpectedly, the nimble defender got rid of his own defense by pulling the bar.

The blocking debut was not completed, but he ended up regretting 3 fouls. As soon as Howard had a good time, he had to be forced to sit on the bench and watch the fire from the other side.

Without Howard, the Lakers' deterrence on the defensive end dropped a lot in an instant. Although the backup center Jordan Hill, who replaced Howard, is also a good fifth position, but no matter how good he is, he cannot be compared with "Warcraft".

Yiyang made 2 free throws and continued to narrow the gap. The fans were amazed at the cooperation between Yiyang and Mayo just now. As people say, the upper limit of this pair of backcourt combinations is quite high. If the two can maintain this state, the combat effectiveness of the Mavericks will be more terrifying than anyone imagined.

With Howard off the field, Yiyang and Mayo began to play exquisite cooperation. Bryant seems to smell a hint of danger, he has long known that the Dallas Mavericks are not easy to pinch soft persimmons!

In the next attack by the Lakers, Nash fired from outside the three-point line and was interfered by Yiyang, so the ball naturally failed to hit. In the second quarter of the game, Nash was still scoreless. The current Yiyang seems to be too strong for the aging Nash.

"The Lakers have the Super Big Four, but they are still inextricably tied to the Mavericks! Counting last season's playoffs and the past preseason, the Lakers have lost ten straight at home! Today, whether they can break the What about bad luck!?"

As soon as Mike Brin finished speaking, a sigh came from the scene. Yiyang didn't look at the back pass and assisted Mayo who cut into the penalty area and scored with a one-handed dunk. The score was equalized. Kobe's face was full of black lines, Jordan Hill and Gasol's protection of the basket was better than nothing!

"Paul, cheer up, okay!?" Kobe hammered Gasol's chest hard. There was no barrier between the "Black Mamba" and the Spaniard, and they always spoke out.

Therefore, Gasol will not be angry with Kobe, and Kobe has never shy away from criticizing Gasol.

Not to mention, Kobe's reminder really brought the Spanish Tower back to its senses. During the Olympic Games this year, the Spanish team was almost overturned by the Chinese team led by Yi Yang in the opening match. In the end, it was Gasol's steady performance that allowed Spain to escape the fate of being upset.

Today, facing Yiyang and a group of "rabble" again, Gasol also does not want the Lakers to be upset.

Gasol is no longer willing to be a mid-range supporter. Now that Howard is gone, he wants to carry the banner of scoring.

Nash passed the ball to Kobe as soon as halftime passed, without giving Yiyang a chance to pester him. Kobe made a breakthrough immediately after receiving the basketball. As soon as Mayo moved laterally, he hit the "wall" of Gasol solidly.

The tacit understanding of the pick-and-roll between Gasol and Kobe is far beyond what Howard is now. Kobe broke through, and Gasol now doesn't need to stay in the middle distance to make room for Howard. He followed everything in, Kobe knowingly tossed the ball lightly, and Gasol jumped up to hold the basketball in the air and click it into the frame.

Brand, who is defending Gasol, can't jump at all now, and can only watch the Spanish tower easily put the ball into the box.

If this ball is replaced by Kobe and Howard, it will definitely end with an alley-oop dunk. But Gasol's alley-oop layup also has his unique beauty.

"Paul's follow-up was very timely. It can be seen that this is his favorite way of playing. It would be too wasteful to use him only as a mid-range turret."

Gasol's excellent performance was not a flash in the pan. In the next few attacks, Gasol frequently succeeded near the three-second zone, and Brand was beaten helplessly.

Mavericks fans began to miss Dirk terribly, at least with Dirk on the court, Gasol would not be so rampant.

The Mavericks once again expanded the score by relying on Kobe and Gasol's chillingly stable offense. Ironically, after the Lakers experienced a big change in the summer, the two old partners of Kobe and Gasol were the most effective.

At this time, I don't know if it was a little careless, but Mayo's shooting rate began to plummet. Yiyang passed him three strikes, but Mayo missed three in a row. Seeing the initiative being gradually regained, the Lakers fans began to cheer. And Mike Brown also made Howard prepare to play again. He wants to take advantage of this time to widen the point difference in one fell swoop!

Facing an opponent like the Mavericks, it is not impossible to solve the battle in half a game!

Mike Brown's tricks have been exhausted, and it has indeed achieved results. But he absolutely shouldn't, just shouldn't let Howard come back!

In Howard's first defense since he came back, Yiyang assisted Kaman to score a goal. Howard, who has been plagued by three fouls, is now afraid to make any big moves on the defensive end. He has had enough of his teammates struggling on the court, while he can only sit on the bench.

But Howard lost his aggressiveness on the defensive end, and he actually lost his biggest advantage. Kaman's chance to hook the phone just now was not good, but Howard didn't dare to jump up to block it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to remind you that the Mavericks are still persevering! After they also assisted Kaman to score just now, the point difference between the two teams has been reduced to 6 points. The Big Four of the Lakers tried their best, but they could only take the lead. Yang scored 6 points! I don’t know whether it’s the Lakers’ incredible performance or the Mavericks led by Yiyang’s incredible performance.”

Barkley was wrong. The most "unbelievable" performance today was actually Howard!

In the next attack, Howard planned to repeat the same trick and drive Kaman hard to attack the basket. But Kaman did not wait for Howard to take the kill, but took the initiative to foul early and sent Howard to the free throw line.

The hacking tactics, this is what Carlisle specifically explained to Kaman. Howard shot just 49 percent last season, a career low. This summer, the Los Angeles media reported wildly about Howard and his trainer practicing free throws. Cuban will verify today whether these news are true or false!

Howard took the basketball and pushed it toward the hoop abruptly. Although from the perspective of action, Howard's free throw posture is much smoother than O'Neal. But in fact, the hit rate is about the same.

In the first free throw, Howard used too little force, and the basketball hit the edge of the iron frame and bounced back.

"Take it easy, man, just like you did in training." After the first free throw, the Lakers players stepped forward to high-five Howard, and Kobe even reminded him.

The audience was eerily quiet, as if the more than 10,000 fans in the Staples Center had lost their voices. However, such a good environment still can't save Howard's poor free throw technique.

Missed both free throws! Howard's "excellent" performance allowed the Mavericks to start a new round of offense without losing anything.

Howard is squandering opportunities there, and Yiyang will not let the Mavericks get into trouble. After Mayo missed three goals in a row, Yiyang decided to look for the next target with stable output. This Chinese defender's excellent overall view makes people look forward to every round of the Mavericks' offense. Because you don't know, Yiyang will guide the team how to do it.

"Take care of your matchup, watch your matchup!" Mike Brown yelled anxiously from the sidelines, but whenever there was a gap, Yiyang had the ability to send the ball over.

Watching your counterpoint closely sounds simple, but it is very complicated to implement. After several off-ball pick-and-rolls, the Lakers' defense has become a mess.

In the end, Marion assisted Yiyang to make a mid-range shot. Nash's blocking will only make fans feel sad.

The point difference instantly became only 4 points, and Howard panicked. In the second quarter of the game, I haven't opened yet!

So for the next attack, Howard skipped the step of playing the pick-and-roll and asked for the ball on the inside. Carlisle smiled, "Warcraft" is in a hurry!

Bryant believed in Howard, if not, he would not have tried to persuade the No. 12 big man to join in the summer. But in the Lakers, Kobe has always asked for the ball from others, and there has never been a case of someone asking for the ball from Kobe. Even Bynum, who played the representative season of his career last year, did not dare to do this on the court.

Howard can't control that much. In his opinion, he and Kobe have completely equal status in the team.

In order for Howard to play his own rhythm, Kobe chose to pass the ball. The basketball fell firmly into Howard's hands, and he still planned to do it recklessly!

Kaman didn't hesitate and fouled Howard before he could make a shot. Aggrieved, "Warcraft" smashed the ball hard to the ground, and had to accept the fact that he had to continue to make free throws.

If a reporter asked Carlisle to choose an x ​​factor today, he would definitely choose Howard! Who would have known that this guy could miss two free throws in a row!

"Damn it!" Kobe cursed under his breath without anyone hearing him. If Howard can make free throws, the Lakers don't need to be so nervous now.

Howard is still not reconciled, he still wants to exert his strength. If the offensive end is not good, just leave the state on the defensive end. Then, people heard the urgent whistle.

"Dwight Howard gave the Mavericks another big gift just before the end of halftime! 4 fouls, Howard's irrational blocking made him have 4 fouls! We saw Coach Mike Brown shouting at the referee The argument, but the referee ignored him at all! I think the referee did not give him a technical foul, it is already a face."

Yiyang, who fell on the ground, was pulled up by Marion and Kat who came off the bench. In front of Yiyang was Howard with a displeased face.

Under the deafening boos from the Los Angeles fans, Yiyang still made two free throws, making a total of six free throws today. Such a hit rate made the people in the Staples stands envious.

Howard went off again, and the Mavericks seized the opportunity to narrow the score before halftime.

52 to 50, the Big Four are still in a hard fight, and the Mavericks are willing to comeback at any time!

In the third quarter, Mayo "resurrected with full blood", Yiyang and Mayo took turns to attack, which brought a lot of trouble to the loose defense of the Lakers.

On the Lakers side, Nash and Howard's offense was basically scrapped. Nash couldn't get rid of Yiyang, and Howard couldn't make a shot from the free throw line. If even Howard and Nash can't score, the others are even more embarrassed. Artest, who is currently only 1 of 7 shots, is the best example.

The Lakers can only rely on the efficient support of Kobe and Gasol to lead the team forward.

The game continued until the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, when Howard scored his 19th point of the day with a dunk at the basket. 19 points seems to be a good data, but if all this is based on 14 free throws, then Howard's performance is very unsatisfactory.

3 of 14, Howard's free throw percentage today is lower than Yiyang's when he fired randomly from beyond the three-point line! Carlisle's tactics were used very successfully, and the most proud signing of the Lakers just became today's failure!

20 seconds later, a whistle ended the first game of Howard's Lakers career. A sudden back run by Marion caught Artest off guard.

Yiyang has sharp eyes and quick hands, passing the ball quickly. The basketball passed through the crowd and flew precisely into Marion's hands.

As soon as Marion took off for a layup, he felt as if he had been hit by a heavy truck. Howard, who came to defend, violently slapped the basketball in Marion's hand, but also knocked Marion into the press area next to the basketball hoop.

Just when Howard was secretly proud that he finally completed the block, the referee blew his whistle.

The entire Staples Center was wailing, and if the referee confirmed that the whistle was blown, Howard's game would be over!

"Dwight is too impatient, he wants to win too much, and he wants to express himself too much in Los Angeles."

Howard stood on the court with his hips crossed and shook his head. Kobe patted the big guy on the shoulder and whispered a few more words. Howard then took a step and walked off the court.

Three minutes, seven points, no Howard. The hearts of the Lakers fans are all in their throats. This game is not really about to lose!

After Howard got off the court and sat down, Kobe turned his attention back to the court and to the game. Of the four giants, one was suppressed to death by Yiyang, and now another one is fouled and left the field. In the end, the Lakers still had to rely on Kobe.

"Are you ready, kid? No one will bother us now!" Kobe gritted his teeth and said to himself, and then he personally took the baseline ball and started to advance.

Yiyang and Kobe's new and old debts should all be paid off within these three minutes!
