One Guard

Curry had 31 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 54.4%. When he can perform like this, it's often impossible for the Warriors to lose. But in today's game, the Warriors not only lost, but also lost by a full 9 points!

In the last two and a half minutes, Yiyang used misplaced attacks to defeat the Warriors. That guy's offense is so strong, and he can not only score by himself, but also assist his teammates to score. One offensive point will instantly become two or three under Yiyang's organization... In terms of assists, Yiyang is more threatening than Curry.

The most important thing is that Harrison Barnes, a small weak point in the Warriors' formation, was infinitely magnified under Carlisle's attack!

At the last moment, Barnes and Iguodala's three-point shots from the corner said it all. The mature Iguodala remains calm in times of crisis. Even if he plays dead all season long, he will never back down at critical moments in the playoffs.

As for Barnes, it seems that there is no big problem with this kid's performance. But at critical moments, it is somewhat unreliable.

This is the most top-level duel. The key to determining the outcome of the two sides is often not the huge gap in strength, but these subtle details.

After the game, when reporters asked Green again how he evaluated Nowitzki's performance, the Warriors forward did not open his big mouth again. Instead, he lowered his head and silently squeezed away from the crowd.

I've been beaten up by others, so I don't have the nerve to brag in front of the camera. Even a "thick-skinned" guy like Green can't do this.

"Do you think you were targeted by the Mavericks at the last moment!?" Of course, it was not only Green who was embarrassed today, but also Harrison Barnes.

Barnes' performance on both offense and defense in the final moments was undoubtedly a major reason for the Warriors' loss today. Curry has performed so well that reporters can only start with these role players.

"God, stop torturing that kid." Carlisle couldn't bear to see the awkward expression on the other side of the court when Barnes faced the camera.

But in fact, it was him, the "good old guy", who pushed Barnes into such a situation.

This is the brutality of the playoffs, whether you are a rookie or a veteran. As long as you are weak, you will be targeted. If you don't want to be targeted or hold the team back, the only way is to make yourself stronger!

Although he won a game, Yiyang did not feel comfortable because of it. If the Warriors can be defeated so easily, then they don't deserve an outstanding record like 67 wins.

Today, the Mavericks can only be regarded as temporarily leading. But the real outcome may not be so easy to decide.

※※※

The day after the game, the Mavericks immediately became the darlings of basketball media around the world. In the eyes of many people, if the Mavericks can defeat the Warriors, they have already won the O'Brien Cup in advance.

However, the external comments and last night's victory did not make the Mavericks relax at all in the next day's training. The playoffs are not determined by just winning one game. Nothing is finalized until the fourth game is won. In the last round of the series, the Grizzlies also led the Warriors with a total score of 2 to 1. The results of it? As a result, the Warriors defeated three games in a row and now stand in front of the Mavericks.

Cole is definitely an excellent head coach candidate. He also became the head coach after retiring as a player. Carlisle believes that Cole is much more difficult to deal with than McHale in the previous round.

In the case of Barnes being targeted, Cole will definitely make appropriate adjustments. How he will adjust, Carlisle has no idea. The only thing he can guarantee is that the Mavericks players will continue to be in excellent condition to face the next challenge.

Today's training also went very smoothly. Yiyang increased his practice of interfering with mid-range and long-range shots, always preparing for the winning shot. Maybe in this entire series, Yiyang will not encounter a situation where he needs to rely on a buzzer-beater to win the game.

But success is often built upon countless practices. For that opportunity, the sweat the players put in off the court is often unimaginable.

After regular training, most players go home directly to rest. Yiyang and Gobert did not stay to continue training. After all, in such a crucial Western Conference finals, the players must not waste any extra energy outside the game.

Of course, there is another reason besides this. That's tonight, Yiyang has a charity event to attend. Charitable activities are different from most commercial activities. Yiyang only needs to show his face, accept interviews from reporters and receive their thanks, and then he can go home and rest easily.

Although in charity activities, players not only do not receive any monetary income, but also pay back. But this kind of activity is a very important part of shaping the player's image. Moreover, Yiyang himself also hopes to help some children who are in worse situations than himself. It's better to be in an orphanage than to have them live on the streets like the Wood District.

Driving down the streets of Dallas, the streets of Dallas are filled with Mavericks posters. Every time it comes to the playoffs, Dallas will become a veritable "Basketball City."

Starting from the American Airlines Center Arena and driving east for about fifty minutes, we found an unobtrusive little place on the edge of the city center, but today it attracted a large number of reporters.

Seeing Yiyang's car slowly approaching, the reporters immediately went crazy and took photos of Yiyang after getting out of the car.

"Mr. Yi, you came so early, have you had dinner?" The director of the orphanage is an old man with white hair wearing glasses and looks very kind. When a celebrity wanted to donate money to his orphanage, he was naturally very happy and came to welcome him from the gate.

Just after Yiyang shook hands with the dean, the reporters' cameras immediately turned around! Yi Yanggang still felt strange, but when he saw the guy walking out of the crowd of reporters, both Yi Yang and the visitor opened their mouths.

No wonder the reporters immediately turned their cameras. It turns out that Stephen Curry will also be here today.

"Mr. Dean, I thought I was the only one." Yiyang whispered beside the Dean in a low voice.

"Huh? I thought you had contacted each other and came together." The dean also looked confused. It turns out that these two guys didn't know that the other would come?

Yiyang and Curry looked at each other. It seemed that today's charity event would be quite "interesting".

The process of charity events is usually not too complicated, at least compared to those business dinners that require formal attire, this kind of event is more suitable for Yiyang's appetite. After having fun with the children, delivering some speeches in front of reporters, teaching the children how to play basketball, and of course the most important donation event, the whole process was almost over.

Curry's personal foundation and the Warriors Foundation jointly donated 1,200 gifts of various kinds to the orphanage, while Yiyang's donation was more "vulgar". He directly took out a check for 100,000 US dollars in his personal honor. To renovate the outdated facilities of the orphanage.

It is worth mentioning that after the donation event, Curry and Yiyang served as captains respectively, forming two teams to compete on the court. Although today, the protagonists are the children. But for a while, the three-point contest between Yiyang and Curry on the court still made reporters think about it. The two super point guards who are fighting fiercely in the Western Conference finals seem to be secretly competing.

After all the activities were over, the dean and the children became the interviewees of reporters. Yiyang and Curry finally had the opportunity to "hide" on a deserted lawn in the orphanage and rest quietly for a while.

Curry and Yiyang sat next to each other and looked at the group of children being interviewed by reporters from a distance, but they remained speechless. In terms of personal relationships, Curry and Yiyang basically have no personal relationship, so they cannot be called friends. From a work perspective, the relationship between the two parties is that of enemies. So now, it seems a little awkward to talk about anything.

"By the way, you..."

Yiyang and Curry looked at each other, then stopped talking because they actually said the same thing at the same time!

"Why... why are you here today?" Seeing that Yiyang didn't say anything, Curry was the first to ask. In fact, this is also the question Yiyang wants to ask Curry.

"This is an event my manager arranged for me. I have already decided to come today. What about you? You are not in Dallas often, so why did you come to the orphanage in Dallas?"

"I'm here on behalf of the Warriors. This is an event arranged by the Warriors in Dallas, but they decided to only send me. The others need to have a good rest for tomorrow's game." Curry said, pointing to his clothing. Only then did Yiyang realize that Curry was not wearing his casual clothes, but a Golden State Warriors T-shirt.

In fact, this is Curry’s fourth charity event this year. Not just locally in Oakland, Curry and the Warriors’ philanthropic efforts are spread across the United States! Although he has to deal with intensive games, Curry has always maintained a high enthusiasm for participating in charity activities.

After listening to each other's answers, both of them shook their heads. In other words, it was a complete coincidence that they met here. God is really naughty.

"I thought you were an extremely cold guy, but I didn't expect that you had a lot of fun with the children just now." After starting the conversation, the two of them were no longer silent. Yiyang's completely different side off and on the court made Curry very curious.

"It's the easiest to get along with children. You just open your heart and smile, and it's easy to get along with them. I like this feeling, because when I was a child, no stars would smile at me, only black holes. The muzzle of the gun and the corpses lying on the street the next day. But when it comes to getting along with children, you are also very good at getting along with children. You always look aloof and proud on the court. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to handle those children. .”

"Aloof? Proud? Do I have it? Everyone says that I am easy-going, humble, and polite, but you are the first person to comment differently on me." Curry was not angry, but smiled, Yiyang's Perspectives are always interesting.

"Come on, those people have never competed with you. Hey, I haven't forgotten the solo dance after you scored a three-pointer on me yesterday. In fact, everyone has some skills on and off the court. no the same."

Yiyang is right. Easy-going, humble and polite are all comments given to Curry by people outside the court. Because Curry is like that off the court. But on the basketball court, Curry has absolutely nothing to do with those three words. If possible, Yiyang would even like to give Curry the title of "Second Generation King". His exaggerated celebrations on the court made Yiyang grit his teeth and laugh at the same time every time.

It's hard to imagine that James, who is so domineering on the court, is an "idiot" who likes to dance to the music off the court. It’s hard to imagine that Kobe, who was so paranoid on the court, was a gentle husband and father off the court.

"No, there are some guys who are the same on and off the court. For example, Green."

"Draymond Green? That's right. Fortunately, he didn't come today, otherwise he might have sprayed me in front of reporters' cameras."

Curry smiled and shook his head. He had never thought that Yiyang, who was "ruthless and seldom talkative" on the court, was full of humor off the court. If they hadn't met each other on the basketball court, they might have become friends. But...it's a pity that as long as the Warriors and Mavericks are not disbanded, they can never be friends!

"You just said... everyone else needs a good rest for tomorrow's game, so they didn't come. Then, don't you need to rest?" Sure enough, while chatting, Yiyang returned to work.

"Of course I also need to rest. For me, participating in charity is also a rest. But you, too. You should not choose to come here today. After the game starts tomorrow, you will regret that you did not seize all the time to rest." The smile on Li's face disappeared and became extremely serious. He looked confident and did not look like he was joking with Yiyang.

Is it possible that the Warriors have found a response strategy?

Yiyang looked at Curry, and neither of them averted their gazes, as if sparks were about to fly.

"Hey, gentlemen, come and take a photo with all the children!" At this time, the dean shouted in the distance, breaking the smell of gunpowder between the two.

Curry and Yiyang both stood up and adjusted their emotions. Now, it's not on the court.

"It seems you are full of confidence."

"Yes, we will win tomorrow's game." Confident and determined, Curry's answer was terrifying.

Arrogant and arrogant, Yiyang's evaluation of Curry is absolutely right. (https:)
