Even though Wallace's ball was basically in place, Nowitzki still hit the ball against the defense.
Seeing this scene, Liu Rui shook his head helplessly off the field.
For a player like Nowitzki who has always lived his career by shooting, sometimes he can shoot the ball even with his eyes closed.
The individual has already developed a sense of the ball and muscle memory, and it is not simply closing the eyes that can reduce his personal offensive efficiency.
In a sense, what can really limit his shooting, apart from the pressure caused by trying to make contact physically, is his personal offensive touch.
In this regard, Durant and Nowitzki of later generations have similarities in purpose.
It is not only soft to the touch, excellent shooting ability, but most importantly, it is difficult to be blocked...
But on the offensive end, the Bobcats are also not to be outdone.
Because the current Mavericks are on the field except for Josh Howard and Dampier, the other three's defensive efficiency is not high.
Especially Stackhouse, which is a well-known defensive loophole in the league.
I still remember that there was a meme in the league at that time, that is, the outside rookie players who were expected by everyone. In the first year of entering the league, if you can't beat Stackhouse in one-on-one, then you have absolutely no potential, and you are basically useless...
As for Terry's personal defense, it is not much better than Stackhouse's. It can be a little better, and it is basically invisible to the naked eye...
Facing Stackhouse's defense, Joe Johnson showed a strong desire to attack.
After all, Nowitzki, as the boss of the Mavericks, had put a lot of pressure on the Bobcats in the previous round of offense.
So Joe Johnson, as the head of the Bobcats, of course has to respond.
And in the last game against the Lakers, Joe Johnson really wanted to start a duel with Kobe in the fourth quarter, but was rejected by Liu Rui.
It's not that Liu Rui doesn't believe that Joe Johnson has this ability, but that the Bobcats at that time obviously had a better offensive method, so Liu Rui didn't let Johnson blindly play singles.
After all, Joe Johnson's individual singles ability is what Liu Rui needs most when facing a team like the Pistons.
When facing the excellent defensive ability of the Pistons and the players generally have no good shooting space, Joe Johnson's super singles ability is really useful.
Facing Stackhouse, Joe Johnson didn't make too many messy moves. After all, he could pass this guy within one step in terms of speed, and there was no need to play those fancy things.
He directly used a simple cross step, and then chose a three-pointer shot with a retreat step.
sigh~
3:2
Joe Johnson responded to Nowitzki with a very tough step-back three-pointer.
And Joe Johnson used to like to shoot from the mid-range position, most of which were mid-range shots after crossovers.
But after coming to the Bobcats, Liu Rui also let Joe Johnson shoot more from outside the three-point line.
After all, there is only one step between two-pointers and three-pointers. Liu Rui doesn't understand why this guy always likes to shoot long two-pointers.
Fortunately, the entire Bobcats team is very dependent on three-pointers, which also allowed Joe Johnson to gradually increase his shots from outside the three-point line.
Both teams are mainly offensive teams, but in the first quarter, Christie faced Jason Terry, and he looked very excited.
The concentration of defense also made Terry miserable.
Although I know that this guy has always defended well, but he didn't feel anything when he was a teammate before. Now that the two have become opponents, facing Christie on the offensive end, it really makes people feel uncomfortable.
On the defensive end, Christie will not stick to the offensive side, so the attacker will not feel too much pressure on the normal offense.
But what's really scary about him is that Christie is very calm when defending, and he basically doesn't hesitate.
He is at the top of the league when defending the offensive pass.
This is equivalent to forcing the attacker to complete a one-on-one duel with him.
Faced with this kind of dog skin plaster, only Kobe in the league likes to face difficulties and forcefully create a 1v1 situation.
But it is also in this situation that Kobe's shooting percentage on the offensive end is substandard, so this has the nickname of Kobe's Terminator.
With the successive rotations of the two sides in the first quarter, at the end of the first quarter, the Bobcats played away with:
26:29
The trailing Mavericks ended the first quarter with three points.
In the first quarter, the Mavericks' outside offensive performance was not good, but Nowitzki seemed to have a scope installed, and he made every shot against Wallace's defense.
Wallace, a member of the best defensive team, looked helpless.
Several times on the court, he turned his gaze to Liu Rui on the sidelines, as if to say: "Brother, your defensive strategy doesn't seem to work!!"
Seeing the help-seeking gaze from Gerald Wallace, Liu Rui smiled knowingly, and picked up the goji berry water beside him.
"Hold on, we can win..."
You can't even guard against it, who do you want me to find to guard against...
"Coach, I can't wait to put my hands on Nowitzki's face, but his shots are accurate every time, I really can't guard against them."
"I have defended so many people. I have seen someone who is more stable than me, taller than me, and shoots more accurately than me, but I have never seen someone who is taller, more stable than me, and shoots more accurately than me..."
"With this height and this shooting posture, is this considered cheating, coach!"
After the first quarter, Wallace complained to Liu Rui.
This wild player who didn't even make a complaint against Kobe, and even wanted to play one more quarter.
But when facing a weak player like Nowitzki, he was beaten a bit depressed.
Could this be the legendary four-two-two-thousand-thousand-jin? ?
"Ahem, there is no way. Then in the second half of the second quarter, let Okafor try to defend. After all, Nowitzki's foot speed is not very fast, and his main offensive method is from mid-range shots."
"But in the face of this situation, even if we watch Nowitzki score, we can't double-team him, otherwise we will fall behind."
"Once you are led by the nose in the game, the whole process will be very bad."
"Right now it's just Dirk Nowitzki opening up the situation on the offensive end. Once he chooses to double-team, the Mavericks' outside line is likely to follow suit. At that time, it will be the real trouble."
Looking at the helpless Wallace, Liu Rui didn't have much to do.
I can only switch to Okafor to try to defend Nowitzki. After all, compared to Wallace, Okafor can always be better...
The fourth change, the update is completed today, ask for a monthly pass!

Recently, I have been sitting and typing for a long time, and my cervical spine hurts to death. I can’t sleep because of the soreness every night. The most annoying thing is that I wake up very early every morning. If I want to sleep more, I will not be able to bear it. The pain...
I suddenly remembered a plot, I quickly got up and wrote it down in my notebook, and then fell back to sleep, or I would forget it when I woke up, I was almost stunned...
Then my appetite has also become very poor recently. I have lost 6 catties in the past two days, and now I feel a little panicked! !
