Chapter 325 Stopped in the first round of the playoffs
When the players on the Mavericks field saw the Wolf King coming back, they tried to reverse the situation, and they wanted to do something with Neal. Then they had to ask Nash, the core point guard of the Mavericks, if he would agree. Every player has a heart to win the championship. Can you agree?He did not agree, and other players are even less likely to agree. The most important thing is that the championship and the championship ring are too dazzling. It will be the affirmation and recognition of the supremacy of their basketball dreams. Therefore, they will not relax; Playing under the eyes of people, let alone relax.
Therefore, when KG came up, Neil tried to wake up the wolf king with a pass. Don't be too narrow-minded. Men should be more generous. Besides, he is not the kind of person that the outside world said. He passed the ball this time just to tell KG this principle, and then defend the dignity of the team with him, defend the dignity of the individual.
However, as an opponent, the opponent is destined to be the one who always stands in front of you and tries his best to prevent you from becoming better and stronger.
The current Mavericks are that opponent. Because the Wolf King came back from a break, they have already realized that something is wrong, because the two of them have been on the court at the same time for a long time before, but they have never passed the ball or clapped for each other once. After Wang came back, everything changed and was completely different. It gave the opponent the feeling that the two of them suddenly became friendly and united. This made the opponent very scared, because the cohesion of the two of them can drive the entire team. If they find the feeling of cohesion, it will be difficult to play. Therefore, the game must be ended before they find the feeling of the regular season, otherwise, there will be no sound after that.
With such a sense of urgency, the Mavericks are careful to avoid mistakes as much as possible to organize each attack, pass when it is time to pass, cooperate when it is time to make a move, and when it is time to make a move, anyone who has a chance can make a move, and the one who wants to break through Sometimes, the player without the ball took the initiative to delay the pick-and-roll for the teammate with the ball. A basketball was played by five of them. After a while, a wave of 10:4 attacks was played, which widened the point difference to the entire game. The maximum score difference is 22 points.
The coach was extremely disappointed, and hurriedly called a timeout, because if the timeout is not called, there is not enough time to chase points. Now that we adjust, the team as a whole still has a chance to reverse and win.
Although during the timeout, the coach's tactical board was almost smashed and said, encourage them, be stronger, more confident, and be more decisive. Good defense doesn't have to be whispered all the time.
After the coach said, everyone nodded and said yes, but when they saw the strong Mavericks in the playoffs, they were discouraged. It seemed that their confidence was completely broken by the Mavericks. No, it makes people anxious when they see it.
Many fans outside the Mavericks Stadium were very disappointed. After kicking and punching a few times, they left spouting trash.
"FUCK... ferocious wolves are not as good as Mavericks, what happened? I will never watch your games again."
As the game came to the critical fourth quarter, Neil, who was exhausted, saw his parents and Lavender sitting on the sidelines and wanted to turn the score around abruptly, but when he thought of the selfish Garnett, his heart came to him. I was so angry, I still wanted to be the leader of a team when I just came back from a break, but after a while, I started to do it alone with the ball again. basket, it will not fall into the hands of Neil and his teammates again.
The coaches, teammates, and most of the fans outside the arena understood the Wolf King at first, but every time they played singles and hit irons again and again, they were very depressed. They couldn't control their inner anger. Looking at Garnett on the screen Started to curse: "Fuck, shit... KG, you trash, are you overconfident? You, uncle, are too irresponsible to us and the players."
As soon as the words fell, he tore the tickets in his hand into pieces, turned around and left without looking back in anger, and a small part of them still looked at them trustingly, but their hearts were full of fear and apprehension.
Soon the game came to the most important fourth quarter, but the score was still more than [-] points for the Mavericks. It is not impossible to win, unless there is a miracle.
Since the first three quarters were hung by the opponent, most of the main players were exhausted in the fourth quarter. It is unrealistic to chase many points back. If the Timberwolves want to win, they have to follow the coach to end the rest period in the third quarter Do what you say, strengthen your defense, limit your opponent's scoring as much as possible, and then flexibly use the pick-and-roll coordination to delay Neil's pick-and-roll and create opportunities for him to successfully break through the layup. After the assist defense, the ball comes out. Other players must make good use of every open shot opportunity, so as not to waste precious opportunities. If the point difference can be reduced to single digits in about half of the fourth quarter, there will be a reversal to win possible.
For the current Timberwolves, they have no way out, so they have to bite the bullet, let go of all psychological burdens, and stride forward. If they still lose in the end, the culprit for losing this game, or even the entire series, is the wolf. Wang's independence and his downturn in the playoffs led to.
As soon as he played in the fourth quarter, the other players kept the coach's words in mind and followed suit without complaint. However, the wolf king was still arrogant and self-centered. He didn't trust his teammates except himself. They think that they are not good enough, and Neil is no exception. Moreover, the current Neil is a person who no longer exists in his eyes. To him, Neil is dispensable.
Therefore, he still didn't pass the ball to Neil, and continued to work alone with the ball. The coach shook his head when he saw this scene, wishing to replace the wolf king immediately, but he was also worried that after replacing the wolf king, there would be bigger problems in offense and defense , had to let Wolf King continue to lead the team with Neil on the field.
As the time passed, the Timberwolves could only rely on Neil's difficult breakthroughs to stop the bleeding from time to time, and three-pointers in five to stop the bleeding. But relying on his own strength, he wanted to win the game. That's impossible, because the Mavericks are really underestimated by the outside world, underestimated by them. In fact, they are not weak at all. On the contrary, they are the team that is not very strong but is highly regarded.
Now if you want to defeat this underestimated team, you can't do it alone, or four people. You have to play together with the wolf king, and you have to play collective basketball with the wolf king. All can attack.
Neil didn't care about it, since the wolf king can do it with the ball, so let's do it with the ball, because the wolf king feels like a statistic to him, but he is unlucky and just can't score.
But in comparison, the effect of his data brushing is better than that of the wolf king.
Neil can't count on anyone anymore. He could count on the wolf king before, but he really can't count on the wolf king in this game, because his hit rate is too low, which is terrible.
As a result, Neal carried the entire team on the shoulders of one person and started the final chasing mode.
As he ignored Nash's defense, he hit two three-pointers in a row, plus a successful breakthrough, and scored eight points in a row, giving the fans the last glimmer of hope.
Neal's performance against the sky made the Mavericks daunting, but they always believed that they could win.
In the end, in order to win the fourth game safely, they couldn't just watch Neal be so arrogant. Therefore, as long as Neal got the ball, they put pressure on him, double-teamed, assisted in defending Neal, and even took the initiative to block Neal. , still delaying time.
In the end, Neil failed to turn the tide and led the team to turn the tide, but the loss was not shameful. At the end of the game, they lost by 7 points.
Lost Game [-], allowing the Mavericks to easily win match point.
After losing the fourth game, they fell behind 1:3, and the whole team was paralyzed, without the combat effectiveness of the regular season.
In fact, they all wanted to win a round in the fifth game, even reverse their opponents, and create history. However, the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is quite realistic. Since they lost three games in the first four games, such a low winning rate In the fifth game, although the score was tight from beginning to end, they still lost the Mavericks by four points and lost the entire series.
Although Neil stopped in the first round of the playoffs for the first time, he was remembered by more fans. After the game, many fans stood up and applauded him, and chanted his name, telling him not to give up, Keep going!
Because the people of Minnesota treated him so favorably, he knelt down and kissed the floor after the game, looked up at the dark ceiling above the arena, smiled forcedly and optimistically, walked towards the Mavericks coach, the players hugged them, and congratulated them, and then After hugging affectionately with his coach and teammates, he turned around and walked out of the arena with his parents and Lavender. When he stepped out of the arena, beams of sunshine rushed towards them, as if conveying some unexpected surprise for Neil.
