One Guard

Vol 2 Chapter 359: :2 choose 1

A genius remembers this site address in one second: (Top Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! After a two-game losing streak, the Dallas Mavericks have become a complete clown in the eyes of fans and the media.

Almost all the news media are mocking Cuban and Nelson's summer operation is too stupid, actually let go of the core backbone of the championship period. As everyone knows, half a month ago, they also gave Cuban and Nelson an A+ rating for the joining of Odom and Carter.

That's how the sports media is, and it's them who drove you to the top. But they are the ones who pushed you off the cliff.

On December 29, when the plane that the Mavericks players took airborne in Oklahoma. Most fans and the media have already sentenced the defending champion to death for their first road trip this season.

"The Thunder Three Musketeers are youthful and invincible. Durant is already a two-time scoring leader. Westbrook was selected as the All-Star last season. James Harden is the best sixth man in the league. Ibaka has unlimited potential and Perkins is on. The season is plagued by injuries, and the new season is expected to come out of the trough. The Thunder's age advantage and potential space are the best in the West, and the situation is not so good. The Dallas Mavericks want to continue to win in Oklahoma, but it is not an easy task. "

"After the Oklahoma City Thunder went through a summer, they did not retreat and advance. But the Mavericks situation is just the opposite. They lost Chandler and Stevenson. These two guys were the inside and outside defenses of the Mavericks last season. Pillars. The retirement of Peja Stojakovic and the departure of Jose Barria have greatly reduced the Mavericks’ firepower from beyond the three-point line. After two games, we can clearly see that Odom , Carter, and Heywood are completely unable to fill the gaps left by a few people. I hope the Mavericks won't lose too badly in Oklahoma!"

"The Thunder's momentum this season is very strong. They have won three straight before. The Dallas Mavericks have lost two straight. Although the game has not yet started, everything is unknown. But I have to admit, Oklahoma. The Thunder’s winning side is indeed greater."

"Last season's playoffs, the Mavericks' heroic performance stopped the young Thunder from the Western Conference Finals. But this year, the aging Mavericks may no longer be able to stop the Thunder as a young guard."

No matter which website, newspaper, or reporter, everyone's views are surprisingly consistent. The Mavericks are back in their previous state, they have never been favored.

After all, the performance of the Mavericks in the first two games was really too bad. Except for Yiyang and Nowitzki, who played normally, the others did not achieve the expected results at all.

Among them, Odom and Terry are the two most disappointing Mavericks players. Odom had high hopes, and as a result, the two games together took 16 shots, but only 4 points were accounted for.

Terry seemed a bit reckless on the court, and was a thousand miles away from the "Jets" that frequently hit last season to help the team open the score.

Now, only Dallas people imagine that they can win. Even though the Mavericks have won an O'Brien Cup, they still don't seem to get rid of the fate of being despised.

No, it's not that people underestimated the Dallas Mavericks, but that the Mavericks played really badly in the first two games.

The Mavericks players could not hear the overwhelming voice of doubt. Among them, Terry is very concerned about these remarks, so he also hopes that he can show excellent performance in this game. Where is Odom? He doesn't care about criticizing himself at all. Basketball is just a job for him, nothing more. After the game, take the money and leave. As for the pursuit of the championship, the desire for honor, the protection of his reputation... these things, when he was put on the shelf by the Lakers, had disappeared.

And what about Yiyang? He chose to ignore those discordant voices. In recent days, news about him and Odom having a quarrel in the locker room has spread throughout the league. A conflict between a Chinese player and an American player in the locker room is the first time in NBA history.

But Yiyang did not comment on this matter in the unexpected world. The only thing this young No. 1 guard wants to do at the moment is to stop the Mavericks' losing streak.

When the Mavericks arrived at the Chesapeake Energy Arena on the team bus, the reporters were already waiting outside. As soon as the bus door opened, all reporters reached out their microphones.

"Excuse me, there are rumors that you and Lamar had a conflict in the locker room. Is this true?"

"Coach Carlisle, have you lost control of the team's locker room?"

"Dirk, what do you think of the discordant voice that has been heard in the dressing room recently?"

This group of reporters has lost interest in the game itself, because in their opinion, the Mavericks will undoubtedly lose. At the moment they are more concerned about the inside news of the Mavericks locker room.

However, facing such a bad situation, no player is in the mood to play these boring games with reporters.

Among those interviewed, only two good old men, Carlisle and Dirk, replied to the reporter perfunctorily. The two parties, Yiyang and Odom, wore their own headphones and walked into the player passage from the underground parking lot without saying a word.

The reporters were even more excited as they watched the two silently speaking. If they say something is fine, if they don't say anything, doesn't this just prove that they have acquiesced to this fact?

"The two masters of the Mavericks broke, and the defending champion quickly fell!"

"All the sins of the best sixth man? The inventory also has grievances with Odom."

"One day Zijin, lifelong Lakers. Odom is out of tune with the Dallas Mavericks and yells at the future leader!"

Although there is no substantive information, the reporters have already figured out a headline for tomorrow's news.

Yiyang clenched his fists and walked into the visiting team locker room of the Chesapeake Energy Arena. People said he wanted to say something. But what Yiyang dislikes most is accepting "destiny".

Before the game, all Mavericks players were silent in the locker room. The atmosphere in the entire dressing room is so serious that it seems to be overwhelming.

Usually at this time, Terry would definitely make a joke to ease the atmosphere. But today, the "Jet" did not do so. Because of this guy, he is not in the mood for joking now.

Odom is still putting on his equipment unhurriedly, his leisurely look made Carlisle couldn't believe that this guy was actually the most powerful candidate for the best sixth man last season.

If Odom continues to "sleepwalk" on the court today, Carlisle will abide by the promise between He Yiyang and press this once "all-around fighter" on the bench and replace it with Cardinal.

If he really did that, Carlisle would have put all the treasure on Yiyang. Please, definitely, we must win this game!

When the players from both sides came out to warm up, the young people of the Thunder looked very excited. They just won a three-game winning streak, and today they ran into the Mavericks, who swept them out last season, but now they are not doing well. This naturally stimulated their desire to win to a greater extent.

On the other hand, the Mavericks, the players seem to be very inactive, just doing shooting training mechanically. Yiyang is the most active person among them, but with Yiyang alone, the Mavericks can't stop the losing streak.

The game is about to begin, Yiyang, Carter, Marion, Nowitzki and Haywood removed their training uniforms and stepped onto the court. Although after a two-game losing streak, Carlisle does not seem to plan to change. He knew that the problem of the team's failure was not in the starting lineup, but in the substitute!

For the Thunder, in addition to the four starters in the playoffs last season, the defensive center Kendrick Perkins, who won the championship with the Celtics in 2008, also returned from injury. The Thunder is weak. His defense at the basket was perfectly filled in an instant.

On paper alone, the Mavericks' strength seems to be a bit worse than the Thunder. What's more, there are still problems within the Mavericks.

The referee signaled the players from both sides to stand at the designated position, and he walked into the middle circle ~www.readwn.com~ to prepare for the kick. At the same time, all the fans in the Chesapeake Energy Arena stood up and waited for the team to score the first goal before sitting down. This is the habit of the Thunder fans in every game.

Vignali stood nervously in front of the TV, while Brickley looked forward to the duel between Yiyang and Westbrook. Mark Cuban, who is far away in Dallas, is also watching the game, hoping that the Mavericks can make a perfect turnaround.

On the high-profile court, Yiyang closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The next second, the eyes of the No. 1 guard opened sharply. The look in his eyes at this time was completely different from just now. Even more murderous and aggressive, Yiyang has entered a state of combat!

Carlisle looked at Yiyang and then at Odom who was absent-minded on the bench. If only one of the two players can choose, Carlisle can now give the answer!

The referee blew his whistle and threw the basketball high into the air. Perkins succeeded in putting the basketball from Haywood's head into the hands of his own player with a half-finger advantage.

Westbrook attacked with the ball aggressively, and the Thunder fans who stood watching the ball burst out their most enthusiastic cheers.

It seemed that Westbrook was a supreme monarch, ready to conquer the land he had lost.

Just after halftime, Yiyang opened his arms aggressively and crossed in front of Westbrook.

Seeing Yiyang's fierce eyes, Westbrook couldn't help feeling a furry in his heart. He saw this look in the Western Conference finals last season!

Do you have to play so seriously the first time you meet in the regular season? Well, I will stay with you to the end!

Westbrook changed his crotch, and then rushed to the basket with a sudden acceleration. The important game that determines the honor of the Mavericks and the status of the Odom team officially kicked off!
