Chapter 850
It's not that the Mavericks don't want to change, but that there is no one to change.
Gobert wants to rest, and he will rest next time. Nurkic is too slow, and his appearance is to give the opponent a chance, so at this time, he can only rely on McGee and Cousins.
Although the two fouled a lot, they continued to persevere and there was no problem in playing until the end of the game.
Cousins is very efficient in inside singles, because the Celtics' inside strength is very weak. In this case, the Mavericks have not been opened up.
Sitting on the bench, Qin Yang was also dumbfounded.
In this game, the Celtics played so well that the pick-and-roll and screens on the offensive end could be used as textbooks. However, the Mavericks obviously did not respond well enough to effectively limit the Celtics on the defensive end. The shortcomings of Belinelli and James Ennis were also reflected.
First compare PJ Tucker, the two have obvious shortcomings.
James Ennis qualified as a substitute, but he was a bit reluctant to start.In comparison, James Ennis's three-pointer is not stable enough, not as good as PJ Tucker, and the defensive end is not strong enough. Fortunately, he is fast, passing and laying up better, but it is not practical at this time.
In the 9 minutes of the second quarter, Brog came on the field and replaced James Ennis.
A few years ago, when James Ennis first entered the Mavericks, he played well and worked hard on both offense and defense, but now he doesn't work hard enough after winning the championship.
This is human nature.
It is undeniable.
In contrast, it is not as safe as Brogdon.
Brogdon's physical fitness is worse, but the defensive end is very stable and will not give opponents easy opportunities to attack. On the offensive end, Brogdon's shooting is also better.
When James Ennis left the field, he looked a little unhappy.He sat on the bench with a black face covered with a towel and said nothing.
Qin Yang glanced at it, but said nothing.
The first half ended quickly, and the Mavericks returned to the locker room.
In the locker room, the atmosphere was very stagnant.
This season, the Mavericks seldom fall behind. They are used to leading and winning all the time. Even when they fall behind, they can quickly recover.
But this time, the Mavericks seemed to be playing within the normal range, but the team fell behind.
Many people worked hard, but they didn't help the team reverse the point difference.
This feeling is frustrating.
Qin Yang lay on the chair, stood up after the massage, and waited until everyone had cleaned up, before calling his teammates:
"This is the first game of the finals. I don't need to say more about how important the game is. Next, I hope that everyone will work hard every second when they play. I hope that I can sweep the opponent instead of leaving regrets in the first game."
Qin Yang's eyes lingered on several teammates for a while.
The meaning is self-evident.
James Ennis and Donovan Mitchell didn't change their expressions and didn't say a word.
The third quarter starts soon.
Qin Yang led the team to attack first.
On the first ball, Qin Yang broke through directly with the help of a screen, and then made a cross-step breakthrough outside the three-point line, shaking out the space and then shooting a jumper.
Whoosh!
A three-pointer was hit.
Compared with the Celtics outside, Qin Yang has obvious advantages.
Qin Yang's speed is faster, his skills are better, and his wingspan is better, so after the start of the third quarter, Qin Yang began to use his personal ability to play singles.
After the three-pointer, Cousins made a steal.
Qin Yang took the ball and fast-forwarded, singled Tatum from the outside, and made an easy layup after worshiping Buddha.
Al Horford assisted in the defense, but became Qin Yang's background board.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Celtics were caught off guard.
When the Celtics attacked again, McGee assisted in the defense and blocked Smart's layup, and Qin Yang got the rebound.
After dribbling for halftime, Qin Yang assisted Cousins for a dunk.
The Celtics called a timeout directly.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the point difference was about to be tied.How this game is played, the Mavericks are jubilant at home, but the Celtics coach is extremely bored.
Stevenson was a little annoyed, because the team's players started to wave as long as they had a slight advantage.
Is enhanced personal offense a bad thing?
Not necessarily.
Because there was a lot of personal offense in the Celtics' offense in the first and second quarters, personal offense will always be a big part of the basketball game.
But in the first and second quarters, the Celtics' offense was based on pass and cut cooperation, and the offensive players had a good chance.
But now?
Taking the ball is just doing it blindly, always thinking that you can make a hit and become a hero for the team, but the more you do this, the easier it is for the Mavericks to reverse the point difference.
It's just so magical.
"Increase passing, pay attention to passing, if there is no good chance to score, give the ball to your teammates. You are a team, let me see your cooperation."
Stevenson yelled loudly.
When the game continued, the Celtics' offense finally got a little better.
Five forwards and guards play together. Even if there are flaws in individual positions, it is too easy to find opportunities for misplacement.
There is no way to compare.
But on the defensive end, the Celtics couldn't defend.
In the first game of the finals, the Mavericks had to strike first. Qin Yang didn't keep his strength at this time, even if he was in a bad state in the next game, he would admit it. This game must be won to ensure that the team's momentum can not be interrupted, otherwise it will be difficult to play in the next game.
Qin Yang took the ball and played directly.
Whether it's Tatum, Gordon Hayward or Jaylen Brown, Qin Yang is worthy.
Singles, or singles.
Qin Yang's offense is very strong, but most of the time, Qin Yang plays cooperatively, without the ball, and with a height advantage, and rarely plays singles with the ball.
But this time, Qin Yang directly singled out the Celtics' three outside cores.
They beat them one by one, and the three of them were humiliated and their momentum dropped.
By the time Stevenson realized something was wrong and was about to double-team Qin Yang, the three of them were completely out of shape, and the offensive end continued to hit the iron.
This is not counting.
As soon as the Celtics double-teamed, Qin Yang began to play off the ball.
How to double-team without the ball?
It is very helpless to let the rest of the Mavericks attack with the ball.
The Mavericks reversed the point difference in the third quarter. At the end of the third quarter, the Mavericks led by 3 points.
But the game didn't end there.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Celtics recovered significantly, while the Mavericks ushered in a downturn.
At the beginning of the game, James Ennis hit the iron once, then Mitchell missed the basket for a layup, and then James Ennis made a pass error.
With three consecutive goals like this, the point difference was directly reversed.
Qin Yang called a timeout. Coach Carlisle made a decisive decision and replaced James Ennis and Mitchell. After the two were replaced, the situation became much better.
On the outside, Qin Yang, Paul George and Belinelli partnered and cooperated with each other tacitly.
Qin Yang scored 22 points in the third quarter, 21 points in the fourth quarter, 56 points and 11 assists to lead the team to victory again.
The first game of the finals, win!
