i really don't want to play basketball

Chapter 141 [What camouflage protective color? 】

When you think of the Dallas Mavericks, what comes to mind?
It was first generally appreciated by Nelson, and he spent some time here, making people familiar with this team.

In 98, Nowitzki was selected and Nash was acquired, which put the team on the right track. What followed was 12 years of labeling. Nowitzki, the German tank, did not stop.

In 06, they won the Western Conference championship for the first time and reached the finals. That year they faced the combination of Wade and O'Neal. After winning the first two games, they were reversed by the Heat to win the championship.

In the following 06-07 season, the Warriors led by Nelson were beaten eight times. That year, Nowitzki won the regular season MVP. Just like Curry's 73-win runner-up, he became a famous joke.

In the 09-10 season, the Spurs achieved the Black Seven Miracle.

Dirk seems to be combined with words such as reversed, weak egg, and weakest leader.

Before proving themselves, this kind of not being favored, continuous losses, ups and downs, always seems to be repeated in the Mavericks.

But maybe after spending the first 21 years of the 10st century, the Mavericks have suffered enough, in this era of having the right time, the right place, the right people, and everything.

They succeeded in creating a miracle, and Nowitzki proved himself and led the team to the championship.

Kidd, the league's leading point guard, led the Nets to the finals for two consecutive years but was eliminated. He also won his own championship trophy with the Mavericks.

In today's world, in this summer, the Mavericks' most successful signing was that they acquired the number one center currently in service.

Originally, they were going to choose Tyson Chandler, but after the news about Yao broke out, there was no hesitation. Head coach Carlisle, including Mavericks owner Cuban, and even Nowitzki.

They all rushed to Houston as soon as possible, and in the end they achieved what they wanted and successfully got Dayao.

In the next World Championships, Dayao also successfully proved his strength. The Chinese Men's Basketball Team successfully won the championship and won his first championship.

This seems like a good sign.

Because of Dayao's age and his fatigue over the summer, Dayao's playing time has been hovering around 25 to 30 minutes since joining the Mavericks.

The combination of him and Dirk has also become the strongest offensive inside combination in the league. Together with players such as Caron Butler, Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, Shawn Marion, Jose Barea, Diaw, etc., it quickly became Became the leader of the alliance.

Since the start of the season, the Mavericks have 10 wins and 2 losses. The only two losses were to the Celtics and the Spurs.

They are both strong teams in the league. Although they lost, the point difference was not big. Whoever wins and who loses is a matter of choice. The offensive ability of this Mavericks team ranks among the best in the entire league.

After the Mavericks acquired Yao, Popovich angrily criticized the deal at a press conference for affecting the balance of the league.

What is alliance balance?

At this stage, two of the best insiders in the league join forces, which is no less shocking than the Heat forming the Big Three.

Thinking about it, it was the wrong time for the Lakers to get Dayao, and it was also the wrong time to get Paul.

But at this stage, Nowitzki and Dayao are joining forces, which is allowed and supported by Stern.

It is also because Xia Yin has driven the spread of NBA around the world. Also at this stage, no international player has won an NBA championship as the core.

If the Mavericks can win the championship, both the European market and the Chinese market will make great progress. In the context of upcoming labor negotiations, this is an absolute benefit.

At the same time, Dayao kept showing his injury records and reports, and he was getting older. Everything showed that he could not play for a few more years.

Coupled with the fact that the Big Three of the Heat are in the front and the Mavericks are making announcements in the back, this is the right time, place and people coming together.

Standing on the soil of Dallas, Schein looked at Curry, "Are you confident that you can beat the Mavericks today?"

Curry frowned and remained silent.

Paul George, who was carrying a bag next to him, even lowered his head.

Continuous away games against the Bulls were very tiring for everyone, and the Mavericks are a strong team inside.

A team with a strong inside line is undoubtedly the nemesis of the Warriors now.

Xia Yin smiled and did not mean to blame. He understood these difficulties. In fact, he thought so too.

I really have no confidence in beating the Mavericks.

To be honest, if there is a top center, who will play pure small ball tactics!

The team has a top center and a power forward with organizational skills. Xia Yin is confident of winning three consecutive championships.

Even in the small ball era, he is still confident.

"Let's go, there's something delicious again today."

Xia Yin had already seen the tall Yao, and Curry lowered his head and followed Xia Yin's steps.

Allen walked in the front and gave Dayao a big hug. They were brothers in need. They supported the Chinese men's basketball team for 20 years in their previous lives. In this life, their lives have been changed because of Xia Yin.

But the relationship between the two of them got better.

It was a kind of relief, because the pressure was shouldered by Xia Yin, just like during the World Championships, when Xia Yin controlled the whole game, Dayao became the good guy.

At that time, Allen was a tool man.

In the future, A Lian will also transform into a good person like Dayao. Fortunately, he is now more lively.

"Hahaha, you guys played well. I didn't expect the start to go smoothly. I wanted to comfort you, but I didn't expect the Warriors to be really strong. I have to see it today."

Xia Yin's chest felt very tight, Dayao, you said this.

"Don't be ridiculous. This is due to our schedule. When the novice protection period of more than one month is over, you will be able to see our true combat effectiveness."

It is true that the only way to win against the Lakers is because of Xia Yin's explosion. The Suns are a pseudo-strong team, so they can only win against the Thunder and Bulls. The Warriors have an explosion, and the rest are not worth mentioning.

"That's also your strength. The alliance is willing to help you get through the running-in period. This is because it is optimistic about you."

Speaking of this, Dayao was also quite emotional. He could feel that Stern seemed to be very optimistic about Xia Yin.

The league spared no effort in promoting Xia Yin's games and various promotions, which is a bit like a new round of god-making.

Coupled with James joining the Heat, the new situation of the Warriors has been created.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back first."

Xia Yin, Curry and Allen handed their luggage to the rest of the team, got in the car and set off to the reserved restaurant with Dayao.

The teammates are used to it, but they feel sad that Xia Yin has only been in the league for two years and already has friends everywhere.

Xia Yin and the others arrived in Dallas at 10:[-] in the morning, and the game was tomorrow night, so there was plenty of time.

The meal was very peaceful. Xia Yin and Dayao didn't talk much about the game. They talked most about the national team.

Xia Yin and Dayao did not participate in this Asian Games, and even Allen did not participate, but they still won the championship.This is also supported by the veterans. Looking back on the past life, the dominance of the men's basketball team in Asia was in jeopardy, but it is different now.

After returning to the hotel, Alien said with emotion, "It's rare to see Brother Yao so happy. I feel like he has changed a lot."

Xia Yin put the half-eaten ice cream into his hand, "That's because he gave me the responsibility and won the World Championship. He is worthy of the national team.

At the same time, he now has the opportunity to chase the NBA championship. When we have the opportunity to compete for the championship, your spirit will be different. "

Holding the half-eaten ice cream in his hand, Allen stood there in a daze for a long time, then laughed after sighing for the last time.

“It’s great to have hope for the future!”

For Alien, he won the World Championships with a group of big brothers and received great improvement under Xia Yin's guidance. Now Xia Yin is transforming him in new aspects.

There is even more hope of winning a championship in the future, which is not something he could have imagined as a rookie.

At that time, he had the idea that he could not hold on and returned to the CBA. He indeed suffered a big blow.

In the afternoon, Schein, Cole and Nelson entered the conference room together and discussed yesterday's game against the Bulls for a long time.

"Well done. I thought you would explode and become the winner. Unexpectedly, it was the players who exploded."

Xia Yin smiled, "This is because of our constant tactical experiments in the first three games, which made them familiar with the style of play, and that's how they came up with the idea for this game."

Old Nelson sighed, "I know, but there are some templates for a game, and our running-in progress will be accelerated a lot. By the way, do you have any ideas for tomorrow's game?"

Cole also looked at Xia Yin.

Xia Yin shook his head, "Just play how you want. It will be difficult for us to defeat the Mavericks. We can also take this opportunity to compare. In the future, we will have a template when facing such a strong inside team."

Old Nelson nodded, "Okay, let's just play regularly. I also want to see how strong the current Mavericks team is."

The next day, the game officially started.

The Mavericks' home court is packed. They acquired Dayao this summer, are playing so well in the new season, and Shayne is coming to Dallas today. These are all reasons that attract fans into the arena.

Knowing that they could not compete with the Mavericks, the Warriors started with a lineup of Matt Bonner, Allen, Shayne, Curry and Matthews.

The Mavericks are really strong.

With Kidd, the master of assists, the basketball can always be delivered to Dayao. As long as Dayao gets the ball, Nowitzki will either pull the defense in the mid-range or cooperate in the interior.

How to defend the two of them?
Before the first quarter of the game was over, the Warriors were already 6 points behind, and the score was getting wider and wider.

At the end of the half, the Warriors were already 17 points behind. The Warriors players didn't feel that good today.

In the second half, Xia Yin found Nelson and said, "Give me one quarter to try. If it doesn't work, I'll give up."

Old Nelson nodded, "You can fight as you like, who do you need?"

Schein ordered Beverley, Danny Green, P.J. Tucker and DeAndre Jordan to play.

He has unlimited shots in this quarter.

上半场，夏因得到了16分4助攻3篮板1抢断1盖帽，可第三节仅仅一节的时间，他砍下了24分1助攻2篮板1抢断。

At the end of the third quarter, the score was brought back to within 10 points. The Mavericks led the Warriors by 91 points 85:6.

Come to the last section, the last attempt.

But Dayao, who had rested for a whole quarter, started to show off his strength. He was very excited today and seemed to want to prove himself in front of Xia Yin.

Xia Yin finally pulled the score back to 13 points, while Dayao had already scored 27 points and 8 rebounds.

There were too many fans watching this game in China. After all, it was a derby.

"The Warriors still need to hone their skills. They always seem to fall short against teams with top insiders."

"But today's game was good enough to watch, and Xia Yin did his best. He once again scored 50+ points. Unfortunately, maybe it was because he exhausted his teammates' touch in the last game, or maybe he was too tired from consecutive away games."

"Let us congratulate the Mavericks for winning today's game, and also give Shain a round of applause. He did his best."

But Xia Yin, who scored 50 points, was not in a good mood.

Friends come and go, but the championship flag is always flying. This is not a casual saying.

Anyone who threatens to defend the title, no matter how good their personal relationship is, will be an enemy until the end of the season.

The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the game officially ended in this somewhat depressing atmosphere.

Diaw came up and hugged Xia Yin as soon as the game ended, his mouth split with laughter.

"Hahaha, Xia Yin, long time no see."

Xia Yin glanced at him sideways, "You really made a good choice. It seems that you are going to win the championship again."

Dio laughed loudly, "You know." After saying this, he winked.

He and Xia Yin have known each other since the summer league two years ago, and they can be considered old friends.

"Okay, come on, I look forward to your good news!"

Dio nodded heavily, "I'm also looking forward to your good news."

Xia Yin knew what he was talking about, but he just smiled, turned around and hugged Dayao. The two chatted for a few words and then dispersed.

They didn't stay in Dallas for long, so they got on a plane and flew to Portland the next day, because the last stop of their five-game trip was to play the Trail Blazers.

But it is a pity that Roy was injured and did not play. The Warriors easily won this time without causing any further trouble.

Xia Yin scored 25 points, 10 assists and 5 rebounds. He became the best organizer in this game.

Continuous victories, coupled with fast-paced games and three-pointers as accurate as cannonballs, as well as ever-changing tactics, make the Warriors' games particularly enjoyable to watch.

The Warriors also have a group of unknown players, which also gives fans a sense of expectation, because you don't know who will break out today.

From the fans' perspective, with Xia Yin here, this Warriors has a different kind of charm, and it has attracted a lot of fans unknowingly.

Under the leadership of Shain, the Warriors are like a pack of wolves rising up, and a new force in the league is rising.

Coupled with the strong support of the alliance, the wind of the Warriors kept blowing and blowing, and it accidentally spread all over Milijian.

At this time, the Warriors' road trip ended, and they finally returned to the Bay Area after a long absence.
