One Guard

Chapter 710: A lifelong enemy

Andre Iguodala, he is definitely one of the most low-key stars in the league. He once had the opportunity to serve as a leader on a team, but in the end he chose to come to Dallas and volunteered as a role player to assist Yiyang.

He won’t show off his wealth on the Internet, but in just his first month in Dallas, he has reached cooperation with many companies.

His data looks unremarkable. Under the halo of Yiyang, Wade and Dirk, people have almost forgotten the existence of Iguodala.

But the critical moment is when this guy stops "playing dead." You know you're afraid, but it's too late.

James' breakthrough was blocked by Iguodala. If James was asked to make his own evaluation, James would definitely admit that Iguodala is definitely one of the best defenders against him, even among the top three!

This time, James struggled to score the ball under Iguodala's strong confrontation. But it was of no avail, because Iguodala prevented James from making 1 of 4 shots in the last 5 minutes.

Where's Owen? Just look at his gloomy expression and you will know how miserable he is. 0 of 5 shots, this is the ultimate experience Yiyang brought to Irving in one-on-one defense.

In the last five minutes, Irving finally experienced the feeling of being kept clean.

It seems that it is not that Lillard is not strong enough, but that Yiyang's defense is too abnormal!

No matter what method you use, he can entangle you anytime and anywhere, as if you see through all your fake moves. As long as you take action, it will most likely be a big risk. Even if you are lucky enough not to be blocked, you will definitely be seriously disturbed.

A guy like Yiyang was suitable for double-teaming during his peak period, when Kobe was in the open position to take care of him. But at this time, Kobe was no longer at his peak. Therefore, it may be difficult for the entire league to find a defender who can break Yiyang's defense.

Of course, Yiyang and Iguodala's best defense also has drawbacks. That is, these two guys have almost no extra energy to focus on the offensive end. Fortunately, Wade and Dirk helped them handle the offensive end.

When Wade frequently broke into the penalty area and succeeded, and when the Cavaliers finally paid attention to the veteran whose knees were riddled with holes, it was already too late.

The game ended with 45 seconds left, and the Mavericks led by 6 points. Judging from the Cavaliers' current offensive efficiency, it is not easy to chase 6 points in 45 seconds.

You know, James worked hard and was defended within five minutes before scoring a goal.

Iguodala "pretends to be dead", but once he stops pretending to be dead, the whole league will be shocked!

When Wade scored on Waiters with an extremely difficult mid-range pull-up jumper, the point difference was once again widened to 8 points. Waiters, who wanted to be a superstar, also realized the huge gap between himself and a real superstar.

Wade is no longer at his peak, but he still scored 30 points on Waiters. Waiters was so powerless in front of Wade. If this guy were to face off against Yiyang, he would probably be psychologically affected.

32 seconds, 8 points difference. Carlisle fell back to the bench. He finally won this damn tense game!

When Irving made a super long three-pointer, the electronic buzzer sounded and the red light flashed on the backboard. The 8-point difference was maintained until the end of the game, 112 to 104. The league's number one Dallas Mavericks won the Christmas Day game, ending their two-game losing streak and interrupting the Cavaliers' nascent winning streak.

"This is the ending. LeBron James and his new team still have nothing to do with Yi and the Mavericks. Although he must be very unwilling, this is the result that LeBron must accept!"

James stared blankly at the big screen. He really couldn't believe that the team he formed specifically to deal with Yiyang still couldn't escape the fate of failure.

Last season, he was unable to defeat four opponents with one punch and was swept by the Mavericks. This year, I have Irving and Love around me who are more suitable for me, but nothing can change.

He and Irving combined for only two points in the final five minutes of the game.

This is something James can't believe no matter what.

In addition to defense, Wade's offense also became the last straw for the Cavaliers. When Yiyang had to devote all his energy to the defensive end, it was Wade who stepped up and continued to threaten the Cavaliers' defense in place of Yiyang.

I have to admit that although Carlisle's rest strategy caused the Mavericks to swallow two consecutive losses, it was still very worthwhile.

Without the rest, the exhausted Wade would not have been able to perform in such a state today. Carlisle and Wade have been planning for this important battle for a long time.

Yiyang and Wade, these two guys are no less powerful than James and Irving.

Although he felt very disappointed, James still stepped forward, forced a smile, and hugged Wade.

"You're in good shape this season, man." James' tone was full of helplessness. He had 30 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. After coming to Dallas, Wade was completely different from last season.

Seeing Wade's performance, does James regret leaving the Heat? No regrets. But if you want to say that there is no disturbance in his heart, it is absolutely impossible.

"Hahaha, it's rare to perform like this once in a season. But don't worry LeBron, if we meet in the finals... I promise, I will work this hard in every game."

"Okay Dwayne, the game is over, let's not talk about work. Are you and your wife getting used to living in Dallas? After all, there is beach and sea here."

"It's okay, I just can't go to the beach to sunbathe."

On the other hand, Irving left the game early, unwilling to linger in the Mavericks' sea of ​​joy.

25 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and several wonderful offensive shots. It stands to reason that Irving should be proud of his performance today.

He should have been proud, but Yiyang changed everything in five minutes. Five consecutive misses in the last five minutes dropped Irving's shooting percentage to 32%, which also ruined the Cavaliers' good situation.

The experience of being kept clean by Yiyang in those five minutes makes Owen still breathless. He has never played in the finals or even experienced the playoffs. Could it be that Yiyang in the playoffs was so terrifying? Then, how should I deal with him?

Love was also affected. In his career over the years, he has never seen a team that said it wanted to strengthen its defense, but it was so strong that it directly prevented the opponent from scoring.

Look at how tight the Mavericks' defense was in the last five minutes of the game. Maybe that's the difference between a playoff-level confrontation and a regular-season confrontation.

Before the game started, Love believed that the Mavericks were not as strong as they seemed. But now he knows that the Mavericks' true strength is more terrifying than the 27 wins and 3 losses on the surface! No, the record is now 28 wins and 3 losses.

After exchanging pleasantries with Wade, James also walked to the player tunnel under the cameras of reporters. During this period, James looked at Yiyang who was celebrating the victory with his teammates. Yiyang also saw James, and the two looked at each other.

But James didn't stop, and Yiyang didn't say hello to James. No one noticed that James clenched his fists hard after seeing Yiyang.

They are not friends, at least until James retires, he and Yiyang will never be friends. Because both parties are the biggest enemies in their careers.

Not a game, not a season, but an entire career, the biggest enemy!

The outcome of the two will not be decided until one of them leaves the alliance. So until then, the relationship between Yiyang and James will only be mortal enemies!

"Okay, Yi, stop torturing him with such fierce eyes." It wasn't until Wade came up and patted Yiyang's shoulder that Yiyang's frown finally relaxed.

"You should smile after you win the game. It will be very tiring to stare at the enemy all the time." Wade was the first to smile. From this aspect, Yiyang and James are really similar. These two guys will never be satisfied with what they have accomplished.

Their goal is not one or two O'Brien Cups, but they all want to be the greatest player in the NBA!

At the press conference after the game, when Love was asked what he thought of the Mavericks' strength, the white forward hesitated.

Of course Love didn't mean to blackmail the Mavericks, but at that time he couldn't say that the Mavericks were very strong. We might not be able to beat them.

I just didn't expect that my casual words would make me so embarrassed.

Irving was equally embarrassed. When asked why he couldn't score in the last five minutes, Irving was reluctant but could only tell the truth.

"I have to admit that Yi's defense is indeed too strong."

Irving, who can fool 90% of the defenders in the league, must be feeling very aggrieved when he says this...
