Chapter 175

[Thank you again for your generous reward from Brother Ming of Yicheng! Thank you for your voting and clicking to collect it. Another interesting thing is that the Black Ticket of the Ball Emperor Zhou ranks fourth in the category, and Tanhua is so amused and crying. Do any book friends think I have few updates?]

During the break, espn reporters interviewed Nowitzki. The Mavericks star made 7 of 8 shots in the first half and scored 18 points, with an amazing efficiency.

"Are you satisfied with your performance in this game?" the reporter asked.

Nowitzki said: "We played pretty well today, and I found my own pace. It should be said that we are very good at passing today."

"Not long ago, the Bobcats had just traded with you. What do you think of this deal?" the reporter continued to ask.

Nowitzki lowered his head, opened his mouth, pondered for a while before saying, "Tyson grabbed a lot of rebounds in this game, and he did a good job in defending Yao. I think he is very suitable for our team. Of course, I wish my former teammates, Danpier, Nahura, and Carol all good luck."

The reporter asked: "You seem to have missed a rookie player Jiang, who seemed to play well in today's game."

"Oh, sorry, because he has never reported to our team, and I don't know him, but I was impressed by his speed tonight, and I think he will have a good career." Nowitzki replied very "officially".

"What do you think of Caron Butler's malicious foul on that rookie?" the reporter asked cunningly again.

Nowitzki is also very good at dealing with the media. He shook his head and sighed: "I feel very sorry for this matter, but I believe Caron did not do it on purpose. I wish Jiang good luck."

"That's all for today's interview. I wish you continued to play well in the second half, thank you!"

"Thanks!"

At the live broadcast seat, commentator Brin listened to the interview with the reporter in front and smiled: "It seems that Dirk is quite satisfied with the big man Tyson. It should be said that the two of them have one offense and one defense, complement each other, and can maximize the advantages of the inside. Jeff, do you think Chandler will be the last puzzle for the Mavericks?"

Van Gundy said: "I think the Mavericks should be a very competitive team in the league as long as they stay healthy. But I still think that the physical fitness issues of veterans such as Kidd, Marion and Terry are worth worrying. If they overcome this and Tyson can also integrate well into the team, they have the hope of passing the Lakers."

Mark Jackson said: "I think the Mavericks have a lot of hope because they are more afraid of fast-moving guards, such as Chris Paul, Rajon Rondo, Rose, Westbrook, etc. However, the overall strength of these teams is not as good as that of the Mavericks. The Lakers' Fisher and the Heat's guards are all players with average speed. The Mavericks are very strong in the interior now. As long as they can keep the lineup intact, they have great hopes to win the championship this year."

Bolling said: "Oh my God, you are Rajon? Rondo's Celtics are not as strong as the Mavericks? Boston fans will definitely scold you."

Mark Jackson insisted: "No matter what, I think my persistence is right."

Brin asked, "Jeff, how do you think Yao Ming's performance is?"

Van Gundy sighed: "Yao Ming's performance today can be said to be a bit barely. Although he can still see his previous skills, there is no doubt that his condition has not reached the best. What's more unfortunate is that his teammates have very little support for him. If this is the case, the Bobcats' only advantage may not be able to play."

Mark Jackson nodded and said, "That's right, especially in offense. One is that teammates must learn to pass the ball to Yao, and the other teammates must be able to shoot open balls to relieve Yao's defensive pressure."

Bourin said: "I don't know how the rookie Jiang and Yao cooperated, but unfortunately he was injured. What will happen in the second half, let's wait and see. However, it's not an easy thing to reverse from the Mavericks by more than 15 points."

Van Gundy and Jackson both nodded. The Mavericks are indeed a very powerful team. From all aspects, the Bobcats are probably going to return in a bad way today.

***************************

"Be decisive when attacking, work hard when defending, and work hard! And what did we do on the court? Are we willing to be swept home by the Mavericks with a broom?"

In the locker room, Brown was very angry. He also knew that his team's strength was one level lower than the Mavericks, but some of the mistakes made by the players, such as defensive misplacement, shooting hesitation, inexplicable mistakes, etc., and the low morale on the court, made him always unable to help but get angry.

The players all lowered their heads and didn't say anything. This is the old man, he is a perfectionist, and he is very stubborn. Once the players object to his words, he will be even more angry and have a louder voice. However, many players are complaining in their hearts: "The annual salary of the Mavericks players is so much higher than that of us. Do you still expect us to be superstars?"

The boss Jordan also came to the locker room, but he didn't say a word. No one was better at winning and hated failure more. He was beaten by his opponent in the first game of the regular season and felt very depressed.

Jiang Jun, who had been silent on a recliner in the locker room, stood up at this time, walked to Old Brown and said, "Coach, there is no problem with my health now. I can play in the second half, and I firmly believe we will win."

Old Brown looked at Jiang Jun with a gloomy face, and then said silently for a while: "Okay, you will continue to play in the second half. Everyone must work hard to defend, be like a mad dog, and never give the opponent a chance to shoot easily! Be tough! tough!!"

Jiang Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In order to convince the old man to let him play, he even used the "Huairu Tianxia" mental method in Tianjun's Creation Kung Fu. Now he has reached the third level, and his skills are incomparable to the same as a few months ago, and the effect is naturally much stronger.

Sure enough, Brown Old trusted himself and agreed to his suggestion.

Jiang Jun hurriedly said: "Coach, I suggest that our team can use wheel tactics, attack and defend with all their strength, and do not hesitate to physical strength. Only in this way can we catch up with the behind score!"

Jiang Jun decided to strike while the iron was hot and continued to convince the old man. When he was behind, only by attacking and defending all over the game could he have the hope of catching up with the score or even overtaking.

Old Brown said: "Okay, we will make frequent substitutions in the second half. The whole game is pressing tightly. You must fill in the big hole you dug! However, you must pay attention to reducing fouls!"

At this time, Jordan walked up to everyone, nodded firmly, and said in a low voice: "Young men, even if we fail, we must leave proudly - because we have worked hard!"

After saying that, Jordan stretched out his right hand, and the players stretched out one hand in turn, stacked it on Jordan's hand, and everyone shouted in unison: "Come on!"

In an instant, Jiang Jun felt a strange feeling surged into his heart, just like the Boxer Rebellion who returned to his previous life, fighting against the enemy side by side with everyone, full of strong comrade-in-arms and brotherly righteousness.

************************

With the referee's whistle, the second half began.

Van Gundy said in surprise: "Bombcats rookie Jiang actually appeared! He looks like he has no problem! The physical fitness of young people is indeed enviable."

Mark Jackson looked at Jiang Jun who was running on the field and nodded, "The movements were smooth and the expression was natural. It seems that Butler's malicious foul just now had no effect on him."

The Bobcats' starting lineup was exactly the same as in the first half, while the Mavericks started with Marion instead of Butler.

At the beginning of the game, Chandler was still the first to touch the ball and transferred the basketball to Nowitzki.

He originally wanted to transfer the ball to Kidd or Terry, but he didn't expect that at the beginning, the Bobcats players jumped happily like they were injected with chicken blood.

Jiang Jun watched Kidd, Jackson defended Terry, and Bardinger followed Marion. Only Nowitzki was taller and stronger than Thomas, could he rely on his opponent to create a gap.

Nowitzki took the ball and was about to pass it to the defender, but unexpectedly, the two defenders Kidd and Terry were still stared at.

Needless to say, Jiang Jun moved quickly with the support of his internal skills. It would be easy to keep up with Old Kid's footwork.

Jackson thought that he was also a Spurs strongman back then, and there was no one who came out of the Spurs who could not defend.

Seeing that there was no room for passing, Nowitzki looked at Marion and Chandler, feeling that these two teammates were not as good as him in dribbling. In desperation, Nowitzki made a fake move, and then dribbled past Thomas. Thomas desperately caught up and continued to stand in front of King Nothing.

When Old Kid saw Nowitzki, he reluctantly pushed Jiang Jun and ran to Nowitzki to pick him up, but Jiang Jun also chased him reluctantly.

Nowitzki saw that he could not break through Thomas, and when he was hesitating, he saw Kid coming over. Out of high trust in Kid, Old Kid took his hand, Nowitzki hurriedly passed the ball over.

For the Mavericks, giving the ball to the captain Kidd is a reassurance, and the rest is running, waiting for the captain's pass, ready to shoot at any time.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jun rushed over in a diagonal thorn, and arrived first. He touched the ball with one hand closer to Kidd, then jumped, avoided Kidd's leg sticking, grabbed the ball with one hand, dribbled forward and ran forward!

Brin exclaimed: "Oh my God, if I remember correctly, this rookie has already had three steals, right? Who did you think of this speed?"

"Iverson!" Van Gundy and Mark Jackson said in unison.

When Allen Iverson debuted, he was also famous for his ghostly speed. Because of his short and thin body, Iverson's defense mainly relies on judging positions and steals.

Stealing is a gambling defense and is not easily used by ordinary players.
