Chapter 249 Beginning
"I don't think we have any chance against our opponents. I believe that as long as our players can perform at their best, we still have a chance to enter the second round."
On the afternoon of April 18, the Dallas Mavericks team arrived at the Target Center. The Dallas Mavericks were led by the interim head coach. Nelson, the team's general manager, also appeared in the team. After arriving, he also
He became the target of media reporters. When interviewed by reporters, Nelson still expressed his confidence in the competition.
After the regular season was over and the playoff matchups were known, TNT TV also made a special program about playoff imagination, inviting many NBA celebrities to conduct interviews with the sixteen teams that entered the playoffs.
Conduct detailed analysis and predict which team will win the championship in the end.
Among these sixteen teams, the Dallas Mavericks have the lowest support rate. No one of the ten guests at the scene chose the Dallas Mavericks. It can be said that the views of the guests also represent the views of the vast majority of fans. In addition, the ten guests at the scene also chose the Dallas Mavericks.
Guests, six people thought the final finals matchup should be between the Timberwolves and the Hawks, two chose the Timberwolves and the Cavaliers, and two chose the Warriors and the Cavaliers.
From the choice of this prediction, we can see that everyone is optimistic about the Timberwolves.
Some people even thought in the program that the probability of the Dallas Mavericks being swept was very high. Looking at the showdown between the Timberwolves and Dallas during the entire regular season, it can be seen that as long as they encounter Dallas, the Timberwolves will definitely find a way to give them a disastrous defeat.
Dallas, everyone knows about Rubio in the summer. In Da Zhuang's heart, I am afraid that Dallas is the one he hates the most.
In addition, after the top 16 came out, Bovada, a well-known betting company in the beautiful country, also offered corresponding odds for the 16 teams for the final championship.
The Timberwolves are the biggest favorite, with odds of 5:13, which means that you can get a profit of $2.60 for a $1 bet.
The odds of the Dallas Mavericks are the highest among the sixteen teams, reaching an astonishing 1:580. That is to say, if you vote for the Dallas Mavericks, if they win the championship, the profit will be 580 times.
This is completely unpopular among the unpopular.
In addition, the betting company also announced the odds for the final MVP. Oden is still the favorite, followed closely by James, and Curry is also very popular.
So this is why Nelson said in an interview that he did not believe these comments from the outside world. In fact, when he expressed his confidence, I am afraid only he knew what he was thinking in his heart. In addition, even some Dallas fans expressed their feelings towards him.
The team's playoff journey this season is pessimistic.
Defending glory:
As the first defense of the host's career, this system will give the host a unique buff. This buff will be a unique one-time consumable in the host's career and will not be refreshed after use.
Time limit: four games.
In the first game, the three-point shooting percentage of all players increased by 20%, the defensive ability increased by 20%, the passing success rate increased by 20%, and the tactical execution increased by 20%.
The host can designate a core for this game before the game, and the core will increase all attributes by an additional 10%.
If the score difference between the final victory over the opponent exceeds 15 points, the buff attribute in the second game will increase by 10%, and if the score difference is less than 15 points, it will decrease by 10%, and so on until all four games are over.
After returning to the locker room after the warm-up, Da Zhuang was completely stunned when he turned on the system.
He originally thought that the highest buff in the system would be golden, but he didn't know there were even multi-colored ones. The moment he turned on the system, the multi-colored rays of light made him want to blind his eyes.
Damn it, you are so fucking stubborn about the system. The previous buff was calculated on a minute-by-minute basis, and this one is based on a game-by-game basis. Why don’t you come up with such a good thing earlier?
Mavericks, you are so unlucky, you got hit by a gun.
As for the core, we have to consider it. It must be Oden. Even without the blessing of buffs, Oden is also the core of the tactics that have been laid out long ago.
Time passed very quickly, and there were still almost five minutes left before the start of the game.
Driven by the on-site DJ and tens of thousands of Timberwolves fans at the Target Center cheering in unison, the Timberwolves' starting five made their debut one after another.
The Timberwolves' starting lineup for this game is: Lin Shuhao, Middleton, Bennett, Himes and Oden.
The starting lineup for the Dallas Mavericks is: Rondo, Monta Ellis, Parsons, Nowitzki and Chandler.
Soon after the starting players of both sides stood in their positions, the on-site referee, after communicating with the technical table, came to the center circle with the basketball, and then briefly explained a few words to all the players, and then
The basketball was thrown into the air and the whistle was blown to start the game.
With the cheers of tens of thousands of fans at the scene, the game officially began.
The jump ball duel between Oden and Chandler was very easy. They moved the ball in the air to the position of their teammates. Bennett stuck Parsons behind him, then took the lead to hold the basketball, and then bent down to protect it.
When the ball is good, he is waiting for his teammates to come forward to respond, and the Mavericks retreat very quickly.
Lin Shuhao then received Bennett's pass, slowly dribbled the ball forward, and stood at a position 45 degrees outside the left three-point line. After Oden firmly blocked Chandler behind him, Lin Shuhao also
A shot sent the basketball to Oden's hands.
At this moment, Nowitzki next to him stepped forward to double-team him without hesitation. Oden had already noticed the opponent's movements. When Nowitzki made a move, Oden did not hesitate.
After passing the ball without looking at anyone, the basketball was sent to Simes's hands. With no one guarding him under the basket, Simes dunked with both hands on the spot, kicking off the Timberwolves' playoff run.
"It seems like they guessed our tactics and double-teamed Greg directly." D'Antoni stood next to Da Zhuang and whispered.
"It doesn't matter. It's normal to guess. We have adopted this tactic in most games this season. But whether you can guess it or not is another matter. I believe Greg will know how to do it.
." Da Zhuang said with a smile while watching the game on the field.
"As long as you have confidence."
"Don't worry, you should know that we have never imagined such a scene during the game. If it was last season, I might still be worried, but this season is different. Greg, Anthony and their experience in handling the game
It’s already very good.”
