One Guard

Chapter 462: Best... colleague?

"You played very aggressively, man." Yiyang took the initiative to talk to his opponent after the game. This kind of thing was not common in the previous two seasons.

Wade would hug Yiyang after the game, and Kobe would also chat with Yiyang after the game. Steve Nash, a friendly Canadian, was also very close to Yiyang on the court.

But most of the time, it is others who take the initiative to find Yiyang, rather than Yiyang going to them. But today, Yiyang, a "cold" guy, took the initiative to walk up to a rookie who was guarded by him and only made 2 of 13 shots.

"Laugh at me all you want, you win!" Lillard lowered his head. When he met Yiyang in the tunnel before the game, he promised that he would do his best and never show mercy. As a result, now, I have achieved a disastrous result.

"Hey, don't put on that expression. You will lose to me many times in the future."

"Pfft!" Lillard almost spit out a mouthful of blood after hearing these words. No wonder, if Yiyang would comfort his opponent, that would be a fantasy. This way of speaking is exactly in line with Yiyang's character.

"Hahaha, I'm kidding. If you want to beat me, think more about your shot choices. I hope you won't make me so boring next time we play." Yiyang patted Lillard on the shoulder, although Lillard's performance today can simply be described as "disaster". But Yiyang quite admired his willingness to fight and work hard.

On the basketball court, most people become opponents first and then friends.

"You shouldn't give me advice, because I won't be grateful to you for it. Instead, I will defeat you with the experience you gave me."

"Well, that's why I gave you advice, Damien." Yiyang smiled, then turned and left, falling into the arms of his teammates.

"Tch, I want you to look good next time." Lillard looked at Yiyang's figure gradually walking away and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. This Chinese guy is such an interesting guy...

"With 26 points and 11 assists, O.J. Mayo had 32 points, the two guards of the Dallas Mavericks once again gave a wonderful performance to fans all over the world! With four consecutive wins, the Mavericks are now simply unstoppable. The Grizzlies are definitely at this time I regret it very much. If they had been more patient, the mature Mayo would belong to them!"

After the game, although Yiyang took the initiative to talk to Lillard. But not everyone will focus on the rookie who shot only 15%.

The most eye-catching thing about this game is the backcourt combination of Yiyang and Mayo. Scoring 30+ points in three consecutive games is no longer something that luck can explain. Facts have proved that Mayo and Yiyang understand each other very well on the court. One is willing to pass the ball and one is willing to score. Everyone else on the Mavericks team is also willing to be a green leaf for these two outstanding guards.

A few months ago, basketball experts gave Cuban a B-minus for signing Mayo. Obviously, Mayo is not the best choice for the Mavericks. The reason why Cuban signed Mayo is entirely because he has no one to sign after being delayed by Deron.

But if people were asked to rate this signing now, most people would definitely give Cuban an A+ grade. For a price of 4 million US dollars, he signed a powerful guard who can often score 30+ points. This kind of bargain is not something that any boss can take advantage of.

Once again slaughtering their opponents, Mayo and Yiyang also greeted reporters with smiles at the press conference. Mourin took a photo of the two young defenders smiling on the press conference stage and used it in his column the next day.

"The Dallas Cowboys' deadly double guns!" This is an extremely simple, yet very descriptive title.

The names of Mayo and Yiyang are becoming more and more popular, and their combination has been compared by some experts with historical duos. People are even speculating on how many positions the Germans will have left on the offensive end after Nowitzki returns.

It can be seen from this that Yiyang and Mayo caused a storm in the league. Four consecutive victories, with the point difference exceeding double digits in three games, Mayo and Yiyang scored 60+ points in a row. If this doesn't qualify as a great duo, then who does?

The two popular defenders did not stop because of their four-game winning streak, and Dallas' deadly double guns continued to massacre their opponents.

In November and July, the Mavericks faced the Toronto Raptors from the north at home. Before the game started, DeMar DeRozan, who has performed well this season, said that he would contain Mayo's performance, and said that the reason why Mayo played well was because his previous opponents were too weak.

The results of it? Mayo scored 22 points with 3 of 6 three-pointers, and together with Yiyang became the Mavericks' highest scoring player today. Yiyang had 22 points and 11 assists, most of which came from Mayo.

109 to 104. The two cowboys armed with double guns covered each other and jointly defended the enemy. They killed the Raptors and the Mavericks won their fifth consecutive victory!

The day after the game, Sports Illustrated specially invited the two to shoot the cover of the latest issue of the magazine. You know, the players who can be selected as the cover characters of "Sports Illustrated", which has more than 13 million subscribers, are all the hottest players during this period. At the beginning of this season, no one is more loved than Yiyang and Mayo.

On the poster, Yiyang and Mayo stood back-to-back each holding a basketball. The headline of the magazine is also very imaginative - The Dallas Dynasty is coming!

After shooting the cover magazine, the Mavericks went to New York to play the Knicks, which was selected as a national live broadcast on TNT.

"Little Melon" Anthony fought hard and scored 31 points but still lost to the Mavericks. 94 to 104, Madison Square Garden once again became the stage for the visiting team's stars to show their talents. Mayo made 5 of 10 three-pointers and scored 23 points and 7 rebounds. Yiyang once again tied New York with 26 points and 9 assists!

At this point, the Mavericks have become the only team that has not lost a game this season! They are also considered to be the biggest dark horse this season!

Until November 10, one day after defeating the Knicks, the Mavericks faced the Bobcats in back-to-back games. Kemba Walker and Gilchrist both performed beyond their standards, finally ending the Mavericks' incredible winning streak.

But even so, Mayo and Yiyang still performed well. Only today, God was on the poor bobcat's side.

An unpopular defeat did not make Yiyang and Mayo's popularity drop much. With 82 regular season games in a season, capsizing in the gutter is inevitable. After all, whose child cries every day?

After that, Yiyang and Mayo still maintained a high level of performance. Until November 21, almost a month after the start of the new NBA season, the Mavericks had already achieved an impressive record of 10 wins and 3 losses.

At the same time, other teams in the Western Conference, the Lakers, who have the Super Four, are 6 wins and 5 losses, the Spurs, known for their stability, are 8 wins and 3 losses, the Thunder are 8 wins and 3 losses, and the Clippers are 8 wins and 4 losses... There is no one. A better record than the Mavericks. The Mavericks, who originally thought they could only reach the playoffs as the eighth seed in the Western Conference this season, are now ranked first in the Western Conference!

On the night of November 21st, the Mavericks completed a doubleheader against the Knicks at home. In this campaign, Anthony scored 23 points, and the old Mavericks "boxing champion" Tyson also scored 21 points and 13 rebounds. However, Mayo and Yiyang scored 27 points and 25 points respectively, leaving the Knicks, who fought until the last minute, helpless to swallow the defeat.

Even Barkley, who has always been harsh, said that the signing of Cuban guy was a stroke of genius! Various experts predict that Mayo, who has player options, will definitely choose to get out of his contract next season. Because with his current performance, signing a big contract is simply a matter of course!

The continuous popularity made both Yiyang and Mayo very happy. Yiyang is happy because the team has won consecutive victories, while Mayo is happy because his fiery self has given him more capital to have fun and spend money. The big contract he dreamed of is almost halfway achieved!

Although the cooperation with Mayo is very pleasant on the court, the two are also quite friendly off the court. But Yiyang and Mayo have never become the kind of friends that the outside world imagined. Yiyang and Mayo have always been close colleagues, nothing more. Because the pursuits and values ​​of the two people are fundamentally different.

After the victory over the Knicks, reporters surrounded Yiyang. One of the female reporters asked Yiyang and Mayo what exercises they usually do together on the training ground.

Facing this question, Yiyang's smile gradually disappeared, and he didn't even know how to answer. Because Mayo and himself have never trained alone together! On the other hand, Darren Collison and Yi Jianlian often practice with him. And Yiyang never accepted the invitation Mayo sent to Yiyang when he went to the nightclub.

At this time, Mayo is no longer on the court. Maybe the guy is changing clothes and preparing to comfort himself with a carnival night.

"We...our training is a secret." Yiyang forced a forced smile in front of the camera, training? No training at all...

Two teammates who are inseparable on the court and are considered by the outside world to be the next best duo. Privately, they are not as good as people think.

When Yiyang returned to the locker room after being interviewed by reporters, as expected, Mayo's cabinet was locked and the others had disappeared.

Yiyang shook his head. He must have received another selfie of Mayo partying in a nightclub early this morning.

Yiyang is just worried about how long Mayo, a guy who doesn't completely focus on basketball, can maintain his excellent condition.

This November, I and Mayo have finally fought it out. But what about next month? What about next year? What about the playoffs?

After much deliberation, Yiyang still dialed Mayo's number. As a teammate and half-friend, he felt that he had the obligation to remind Mayo that his popularity should not be squandered like this. If he still wants a big contract, he should keep this state up for a whole season.

However, when the call was answered, what Yiyang heard was the system prompt tone of "the other party has turned off"...
