Cowboys become buffaloes, and the Mavericks have become the most famous fake strong team in NBA history. To put it bluntly, it is the regular season bullshit and the playoff garbage. Dirk has also become a synonym for "soft girl" in the league, and has become two great monuments in the power forward industry together with the former "sister-in-law".
But the most difficult thing is that with Gasol coming to Los Angeles, he formed a jkj team with Kobe and Ji Feng, and won three consecutive titles. Gasol's name was hardly mentioned. On the contrary, with Gasol playing more and more under the influence of Jifeng, Gasol's personal data decreased due to the different lineups and responsibilities on the field, but whether it was performance or success, Gasol played harder and harder under the influence of Jifeng Performance, people all see.
So the poor old driver became the only superstar who was ridiculed with "soft".
But really, before this season, this is really not a problem, the Mavericks are really pulling the hip, the playoffs almost did not show their regular season strength, and never met people's expectations.
With Dirk entering the 30th generation, with the Mavericks replacing the Spurs as the oldest team on average in the playoffs, no one will think that the Mavericks will have any future. Even if they play the game of King's return again this season, from the 7th to the 3rd in the west, 57-25 is their best record in recent three years, but no one is optimistic about them.
But after the playoffs began, the Mavericks showed a different mental outlook than in previous seasons.
Seriously, when the Mavericks make their debut in the first game of the playoffs, you won't be associated with the Mavericks of previous seasons.
In addition to Dirk, other people, including the substitutes, have been changed from top to bottom for a long time. Take a look at the starting lineup of the Mavericks this year. Center Chandler is 29 years old, power forward Tianwang 33, small forward Marion 33, point guard Stevenson 31, and Kidd is 38.
How old is old, the calf will tell you the answer.
The lineup was teased before the playoffs: "did the Mavericks steal the Spurs' skill pack?"
The last time the Spurs were so old in the playoffs, they were ruthlessly eliminated.
What's more, the lineup is not very powerful. Although Marion and Kidd were once All-Star stars, everyone knew that they had already lost their original level. Chandler was a rebounder in the Hornets. As for Stephenson, I'm sorry, he was just a tool for Terry to fake the first round.
Of course, the Mavericks' substitutes are still good, Terry, Barria, Hayward and Butler, this set of substitutes can be seen in the world, but the same problem is faced, the old is too old, the short is too short.
Relying on this lineup, the Mavericks, as always, are known as the soft persimmon in the first four miles.
In the first round of the playoffs, they are faced with the pioneers, the once glorious youth army.
"This may be the only time the Mavericks will be favored in the playoffs. After all, Trail Blazers Roy and Auden are not here."
Yes, facing the uneven lineup of blazers, the Mavericks are struggling. Although they won by 4-2 in the end, the score difference of several winning games is within 10 points. The Blazers fans even yell that if they are not injured, if Roy and Oden keep the whole process healthy, the Mavericks have no chance!
Yes, Mavericks fans can not refute this, because the process of the game is really like this, Roy with a broken leg, closed, with less than 60% of the state, and his team of brothers fought together for six games, if not Dirk showed unprecedented dominance, the original will only jump shot Nuo soft egg breakthrough back play, and the new Golden Rooster independent The existence of legend level is still unknown.
But the Blazers can walk out of the court with their heads up, which is the last glory of the Blazers and McRoy.
Seriously, Ji Feng is really a pity for Roy. This is a man who has made two meniscus in the league. He deserves people's respect. Although he is far away from his dream, at least he has done his best.
The Mavericks have met the powerful Grizzlies. The Grizzlies who have just finished the black seven of the Spurs are very effective at this time. The six games with the Spurs let everyone see the difference between the Grizzlies. Moreover, a lot of fans are looking forward to the Grizzlies' meeting with the Lakers of Jifeng. This is definitely the most perfect script after four years.
However, the first round of criticism of the Mavericks in this round of sudden awakening!
At least, this is the best defense ability of the two teams, which is better than that of the two teams.
This happens to be the most criticized point of the Mavericks in the past. Their lineups often fail to see defense. They all say that the Suns of d'antony didn't defend, but in fact, the Mavericks don't give in too much, especially in the interior line. That's the biggest joke in the West. The stem of "the second middle peak in the west" is definitely a classic eternal famous stem.
However, in the first round, the champion let the whole world know his ability. Randolph averaged 26.8 points and 9.7 rebounds in the last round, and he didn't want to play Duncan. But this round, when he met the champion, he couldn't do it!In the first game, he only scored 13 points and 6 rebounds, and his shooting percentage dropped to 45%. To know that Randolph's average field shooting rate in the last round was 56%, which directly decreased by 11%. Do you understand the charm of the champion.
And the most powerful is the Mavericks point guard, Kidd was not dominant when he met Conley. Conley played very well in the first round. Compared with Parker, it was also the existence of Wolong fengzao. However, the Mavericks are smart. They don't use Kidd to defend Conley, but use only 180 cm BALIA to defend!
It worked wonders!
Conley was dumbfounded!
Important figures inside and outside were dumbfounded, and Dirk was as brave as ever. With 28 points in a game and 32 points in a game, the Mavericks won the first two games.
In the third game, the Grizzlies finally played a good game relying on Mayo's play and Pau Gasol's recovery. However, they managed to win the game by 109-107, 2 points in overtime.
But in the fourth game, the Grizzlies were not lucky in the third game. Nowitzki was crazy in the whole series, especially in the fourth game. He directly pressed Pau Gasol on the ground and frictioned the Grizzlies to CBA level. His shooting rate reached 65% with 42 points and 8 rebounds. Dirk led the Mavericks to win the match point 3-1!
Calf, finally coming back!
In the fifth game, after Ji Feng finished training, he called on friends to watch at home. To be honest, Ji Feng also admitted that he underestimated the Mavericks. Originally, he thought the Grizzlies would create great difficulties for the Mavericks. After all, the Grizzlies' lineup was really good and the state was very good.
But I didn't expect the Mavericks to be so tough. Winning three games is a big win with more than 12 points, and the shooting rate is all over 53%. This is just too bug.
