Chapter 65
Chapter 65 A magical game
January 21.
Bradley Center.
This is the home stadium of the Milwaukee Bucks.
Wang Dachun sat on the bench panting heavily. He looked up at the numbers on the scoreboard blankly. All the Mavericks starting players next to him are also sitting on the bench.
At this time, the final whistle finally sounded. The Mavericks finally ended this painful game.
The final score is 99 to 133. The Mavericks lost 34 points.
This is a magical game. It’s so amazing that everyone in the Mavericks understands what it means “the enemy is too strong. Our army can’t resist.”
At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two teams was 30:22. The Mavericks lead the Bucks by eight points. Wang Dachun played after half of the first quarter. The performance is still relatively stable. He was strong in protecting the frame on the inside, and he even flipped the attacking frame of the Bucks players several times in a row.
The second quarter of the game began. The Mavericks continued to maintain their normal performance in the first quarter. Scored 28 points in a single quarter. Scored 58 points at halftime.
But the Bucks started abnormally this quarter. The Bucks are not on the offensive post. Including their inside players when they are attacking, they are not going inside.
All went outside the three-point line to shoot three-pointers. What’s even more amazing is that they seem to be opened and hung up. Whether it is an outside shooter or an inside player. How do you vote? No matter how defensive the Mavericks are. There is no way to stop them from feeling hot. This season is estimated to be able to throw the Mavericks’ basket with internal injuries.
In the second quarter, the Bucks arbitrarily gave 42 points in a single quarter. Scored 64 points in the half. The first half of the two teams scored 58:64. The Bucks led the Mavericks by six points.
A six-point lead is nothing to the Mavericks. This is only half the game. It is completely possible to overtake.
The third quarter of the game. The Mavericks continued to play normally and scored 27 points in a single quarter.
But who would have thought that the Bucks still continued their hot touch in the third quarter. Still shot three pointers from the outside. Scored 37 points in a single quarter. This allowed the two teams to score 101 to 85 at the end of the third quarter. The Bucks lead the Mavericks by 15 points.
The fourth quarter of the game. When the Mavericks were ready to chase points, desperate things happened. No matter which player the Bucks are, as long as they make a shot, they will definitely make a hit. They also seem to take away the touch of the Mavericks players. In the tenth minute of the fourth quarter, the Bucks beat the Mavericks 10 to 30 in ten minutes.
Mavericks coach Carlisle saw that there was no hope in the game before replacing all the main players. In the end, the difference was 34 points. Lost the game.
Wang Dachun is now absolutely skeptical of the phrase “the rebounder wins the world”. It should be “Those who can shoot three-pointers win the world”.
He played a little role in defense in the first quarter except for the inside defense in the first quarter. From the beginning of the second quarter, he chased the Bucks inside and ran beyond the three-point line.
The tactics adopted by the Bucks are unlimited pick-and-rolls and unlimited screens on the outside. As long as it’s open, shoot three-pointers. Wang Dachun’s all-out interference has no effect.
Take the Bucks insider Charlie Villanueva as an example, Wang Dachun almost covered his face with his hands. He still made five of seven three-pointers.
Wang Dachun really wants to ask, you said you are a big man with two meters and one inside. If you don’t go to the penalty area to attack the frame, you know that you are shooting from beyond the three-point line. Is it a bit too unsatisfactory?
In addition to Charlie Villanueva accident, the other players of the Bucks. Both three-pointers and mid-range field goal percentages are terrifyingly high.
Michael Reid. He made 6 of 9 three-pointers. The audience scored 27 points.
Ramon Sessions. The three-pointer was just 1 of 1 from the field. But the scary thing is that he took 8 shots and made 8 of 8 shots. Scored 21 points.
After the game, I did some statistics. The Bucks made 30 three-pointers in this game and hit 15 goals. The Mavericks made 11 3-pointers and only hit 4 of them.
The Mavericks Nowitzki scored a team-high 30 points and 4 rebounds. If this score is placed in the other game. It’s definitely a high score. But in this game, it is 34 points behind the Bucks. It seemed a little pale and feeble.
In this game, Wang Dachun scored 6 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks in 20 minutes.
When he was on the court. Most of the time I was running after Charlie Villanueva. It was supposed to be Nowitzki to chase Charlie Villanueva, but Nowitzki couldn’t keep up. Coach Carlisle asked Wang Dachun to defend Charlie Villanueva.
This made Wang Dachun not very good physically. After the game, his whole body was tired like a dead dog.
There is not much time to sigh. After fighting the Bucks, he flew to Detroit the next day. Go away to challenge the Pistons.
Fortunately, the Pistons did not run like the Bucks. On the contrary, the Pistons all feel average, the Mavericks are 112 to 91. Beat the Pistons.
Nowitzki scored a team-high 26 points and seven rebounds. Wang Dachun scored 7 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks in 20 minutes. 1 of 3 free throws.
The Pistons fought away with the Celtics the next day. The continuous back-to-back matches left the Mavericks players in a sluggish state. The shooting percentage in this game is not high.
The only highlight of the game is that Wang Dachun enjoyed the star whistle. Wang Dachun came off the bench in the second quarter. In the tenth minute of the second quarter, four offenders were sent off.
Wang Dachun defended Parkinson in the inside and assisted Garnett. There is not much pressure to defend against Parkinson Wang Dachun, and Parkinson’s attacks are not many. But when he helped defend Garnett, he was blown three consecutive shooting fouls.
This puzzled Wang Dachun. He admitted that one of these three fouls was indeed possible. The other two times he was just a normal defense. He was fouled for some reason.
Wang Dachun wanted to appeal to the referee, but he didn’t expect the referee to give him a warning. What made him even more puzzled was that the Celtics fans booed him when he left the field.
After Wang Dachun left the field, coach Carlisle put him on the field again, because the score of the two teams had been pulled apart in the third quarter. Carlisle is also ready to give up this game.
The final score of the two teams was 100 to 124, and the Mavericks lost the game.
After the game with the Celtics, the Mavericks returned to Dallas. They have three days off. On January 28th. Host the Golden State Warriors.
Wang Dachun returned to the apartment, ready to take a rest. The consecutive away games these days. Wang Dachun felt that he was almost hollowed out. It seems that I still haven’t fully adapted to the NBA rhythm.
At this time, Wang Dachun’s cell phone rang suddenly, and he picked up the phone to see that Frank was calling. Turn on the answer key. Frank’s voice came from the microphone.
“Brother, let me tell you the good news. A big company is looking for you as an endorsement.”
