Chapter 142 The Great Victory
The presence of Tyson Chandler has been unable to stop this group of high-flying Clippers players, fast breaks, air cuts, and even three-pointers. With Anson as the captain and helmsman, the crew is almost omnipotent. Very energetic and passionate.
At the end of the third quarter, with An Sheng's three-pointer into the net, the score was completely pulled to more than [-] points.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Mavericks still didn't want to give up easily. They sent up Dirk Nowitzki, who was really average tonight, just to fight back.
He was almost cold for more than ten minutes after playing, and he was still able to catch the ball and shoot a cannon on this night when he didn't feel good, and directly scored a three-pointer.
The Mavericks' bench all stood up and waved their towels, or yelled loudly. They didn't want to go back to the home court. Before they even came here, they packed their huge luggage.
When a reporter from Los Angeles asked the Mavericks why this happened, Mavericks owner Cuban replied with great confidence: "I believe we can sweep the Clippers, so I am going to continue training in Los Angeles and prepare for the second round. No respect for the Blazers, in my heart, the Lakers have become our opponents in the next round."
Now it seems that Cuban's long speech has become a laughing stock, and he will no longer return to the home court. The young Clippers don't think so. They use their own strength to lead the Mavericks, the third in the West, by [-] points.
Dirk Nowitzki's three-pointer did not hit the confidence of the Clippers. They played calmly. Eric Gordon's attempted breakthrough did not pass the old Jason Kidd , the 38-year-old legendary old point guard still has an excellent defensive performance.
Jordan went up to the high post to pick and roll Eric Gordon. The Mavericks chose to double-team the ball holder this time. Jason Kidd and Tyson Chandler jumped on Eric Gordon together. Deng, pass to Jordan Jr. for the lob, don't even think about it.
The Mavericks focused all their attention on Jordan, who was rolling down, but ignored Anson, who was slipping in on the same side of the baseline.
The ground pass went directly to Anson in the air cut. Tyson Chandler had already jumped outside to block Eric Gordon's pass, so there is nothing wrong with the Mavericks inside now, just Dirk Nowitzki has already picked up four fouls.
Anson could choose to stuff the ball directly from Dirk Nowitzki's armpit into Jordan's hands, but he didn't do that because what he has to do now is to put Dirk Nowitzki off the court .
Anson made a tough layup, and Dirk Nowitzki didn't care about his four fouls, because for the Mavericks who were 17 points behind, every minute of the fourth quarter was critical.
He has never been a frame-protecting insider with excellent bounce, and An Sheng's bullet speed made this shot point reach a level that he could not look up to in an instant.
There was a bit of cunning in An Sheng's eyes.He didn't shoot directly at the highest point, but gliding directly from the bottom line to complete a reverse basket, but Dirk Nowitzki was caught in the trap, and the active defense was because of the matchbox bounce and fast fall His body, so that the arm he had stretched as far as possible finally hit An Sheng's arm.
The bottom line referee saw the foul clearly, and without hesitation it was a whistle, Dirk Nowitzki's fifth personal foul.
"Fuck!" Rick Carlisle, who saw this scene, directly smashed the tactical board in his hand to the ground, and Dirk Nowitzki's fifth foul directly declared that all his subsequent plans were vain. The Mavericks, who have lost their core, can't play easily on the offensive end.
The house leak happened to be raining all night, Dirk Nowitzki desperately prevented Anson from laying up, and even paid for his fifth foul, but the basketball spun around the rim and fell directly into the net .
After making a free throw, Dirk Nowitzki finally made a three-pointer and was pulled back to 20 points.
Rick Carlisle replaced all the Mavericks' main players, and he directly announced that he had given up the game before 3 minutes into the fourth quarter, and the following time became a carnival time for the Clippers fans. They were madly celebrating their first win in the playoffs.
115:97, the whistle blew for the end of the game, and the number on the scoreboard was also fixed here, suppressing the score of the Mavericks, a top offensive team, below 100 points, which is the best for the Clippers' defense. Good compliment, and their core Dirk Nowitzki only played 26 minutes and only scored 17 points.
At the same time, they also played the best offense tonight, the three scored 20 points, and the Clippers' three cores were fully awake.Blake Griffin had 24 points, 12 rebounds and 1 block, while Eric Gordon had 23 points and 6 assists, and made 8 of 5 three-pointers.
But tonight's best player still gave Anson 21 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds. The data is very beautiful. More importantly, 4 steals and 3 blocks are the highest in the team. Jason Terry's big hat that slapped the audience, or two consecutive fast hands stealing Dirk Nowitzki, are the turning points for tonight's game, not to mention that he is still on the opposite side of the main defense The core, let Dirk Nowitzki eat three fouls on him.
"Ann! Your defense is very good tonight. Dirk has almost no chance to perform under your defense. Many people think he will be soft. What do you think?" The reporter of Sports Illustrated asked a little bad factor.
An Sheng smiled: "Soft? Dude, the person who scored 06 points against the Suns in the Western Conference Finals in 50 and averaged 35 points per game under the defense of the Wolf King, are you telling me that he is soft? Do you want to go to the next game? Come put on my jersey and guard Dirk?"
The reporter was not angry because of the provocation in An Sheng's words, but seemed to have discovered a new world in his words: "An, from what you said, it seems that in the next game, the main defender of Dirk will still be you?"
"Of course! Although tonight, his condition is not very good and his performance is average, but since he will appear in a bad condition under my defense, it means that my defense is at least a little bit effective."
"From your initial description, his offense is not soft, he is very strong."
"But my defense is not weak!"
The reporter looked at the confident An Sheng in front of him, and felt a little helpless. Didn't expect this guy to lay the groundwork for bragging about his strong defense after talking so much?This is too shameless!
