When it comes to the Mavericks' locker room, anyone will think that this is the legendary "the most luxurious locker room in the league". Not only does it have a huge widescreen TV, but also opens every player's wardrobe made of all wooden packages, you can see the most advanced and expensive electronic entertainment equipment configured by the boss Cuban for the players. The Mavericks' locker room can be called a high-end club, and Cuban spent $3.5 million for this.

Compared with the home team's locker room, the away team is a little simpler. The room is only about 40 square meters, less than one-third of the home team, and it is a narrow, long, wide and short rectangle. The space is a bit cramped, and there is no entertainment equipment placed on the cabinets like every player of the home team. Instead, it is a simple combination cabinet to facilitate players to rest.

Even so, the Mavericks' visiting locker room is already among the top in the league, and no player will ever complain about it. The simplicity of the visiting locker room is a major feature of the NBA. Many teams' visiting locker rooms can be described as tattered. For example, the Milwaukee Bucks' narrow visiting locker room can hardly stand all the players, while the Sacramento Kings don't even have a wardrobe, only a row of hooks.

In the locker room, "Zen Master" Jackson announced the starting lineup of this game, and Ye Feng finally replaced Radmanovic. Radmanovic did not play for more than 15 minutes in the first four games, which was not much different from a substitute.

Jackson said: "The Mavericks' inside offense is weak, and the main attack points are Nowitzki, Howard, Harris, and the substitute is Terry. Defending their outside offense is the key to winning this game. Take 32 joint defense at the beginning. Ye, you are responsible for keeping Nowitzki at the high and outside. If he enters the low post, Lamar (Odom) is responsible for the top. Andrew (Bynum) should pay attention to making up for the block while protecting the backcourt rebounds. Your opponent is Danpier, so you can empty him if necessary."

Danpier is a target of emptied with a tens of millions of annual salary, which is really a joke in the league. Someone has analyzed Danpier's value based on his appearance time. He can get $5,000 per minute of playing. He is not as fast as him to rob a bank, Danpier is so awesome.

Jackson took out the tactical board and talked about offensive tactics: "Lamar (Odom) went to the high position to support the offense and provided cover for Kobe. Kobe held the ball and attacked. If the opportunity was not good, he could pass back to Lamar to play a misplaced single, or pass Ye to make Ye single against Nowitzki. Ye, Nowitzki's pace is not fast, and he will find it difficult to limit you at the No. 4 position, so take a bold move."

Ye Feng became more and more confused. Could it be that he was wrong and the Lakers would not trade him at all? Now his playing time is guaranteed, and the coach arranged for him to take more moves and gave him an important task against Nowitzki. If he could compete with Nowitzki, would the Lakers not consider renewing his contract with him at a high salary?

It would be nice to sign a high-paying and long-term contract with the Lakers, but it was a bit sorry for Alice and Bynum. Ye Feng smiled self-deprecatingly. Bynum's contract will not expire until the summer of 2009. Even if he leaves the Lakers, he will play another season. Now I think this is not an unfair worry? Just try your best to play the game well.

When introducing players to play, the order also changed. Only Kobe and Odom were ranked behind Ye Feng. His status in the team was rising like a Rockets, and it seemed that Kobe, the third most important person outside Odom. Before, he took the initiative to help Fisher carry his bag when he got off the plane, but Fisher was embarrassed to ask him to help.

Despite the average record, the Mavericks' home atmosphere is still very warm. Many fans wear Nowitzki's jerseys and hold slogans to support it. The funnyest thing is that some fans actually played the slogan of using Danpier to exchange Ye Feng. Even if Danpier's annual salary is only 400,000, the Lakers will not change it.

The game is about to begin, and Ye Feng stands beside Nowitzki.

"Ye Feng, today they asked you to start to defend me?" Nowitzki asked with a smile. His smile was a little terrifying, like the Silverhorn King in Journey to the West.

Ye Feng smiled and said, "No, they asked me to attack you. I will try my best to make you foul and hit you. You have to be careful."

Nowitzki's expression became serious. "Then you try it."

The Mavericks starter point guard Devin Harris, shooting guard Jerry Starkhouse, small forward Josh Howard, power forward Dirk Nowitzki, center Eric Danpier.

Bynum and Danpier jumped and transferred the ball to Kobe. Kobe handed the ball to Fisher. The Lakers controlled the rhythm and pulled the frontcourt away. Nowitzki followed Ye Feng at the low post.

Fisher handed the ball to Kobe, and the match against Kobe was Josh Howard. Howard averaged 19.6 points per game this season. But compared to offense, Howard relied on his reputation. He is the most important part of the Mavericks' defensive system, with an amazing wingspan and speed, and he does not suffer any loss when facing the top swingers in the league. Therefore, he always shoulders the heavy responsibility of defending the opponent's forward guard. When defending the opponent's inside players in dislocation, he can also use speed wingspan and bounce to interfere with the opponent.

Kobe was pressed by Howard to turn around because he dribbled the ball. Odom came up to cover it. Kobe threw away Howard, and Starkhouse immediately stepped forward to defend with close hands. This is also a great man. He scored 29.8 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in the Pistons' single season. With his good physical fitness and fierce fighting, his defense on the outside was relatively successful.

The Mavericks had a clear goal and pinched Kobe. Kobe dribbled the ball and threw away Starkhouse, and went to the edge of the three-second zone to make a quick stop and missed the jump shot. Bynum was stuck at the position by Danpier, but he had a good grasp of the timing of rebounding. He used his long arm to dial the basketball out of the inside. Odom grabbed the ball and hung it on the left to Ye Feng.

The moment Ye Feng received the ball, he did not pause at all, and immediately turned to the bottom line. Before receiving the ball, he had made sufficient preparations. There was only one choice, which was attack. Jackson asked him to play Nowitzki, so he would not pass the ball to Kobe! Although Nowitzki's defense was not as good as failing, he was only at ordinary level. He was not good at using his footsteps to stick to his opponent, and his judgment of the offensive route was also average. Ye Feng passed him by the first step of starting.

When Nowitzki turned around, Ye Feng had already entered the basket, jumped up, and dunked with both hands! He pulled the basket, almost crossed his body, and his right foot almost kicked Danpier on the face of the other side who wanted to make up for defense.

2 to 0. Ye Feng gave the Mavericks a warning at the beginning.

No wonder he said he was attacking, it was so fierce. Nowitzki was a little shocked. He had fought against all the stars in the league, and Garnett was not so fast at his peak. If Ye Feng was considered an inside player, his speed might be the fastest in the league.

Nowitzki has won MVP, and he will not be scared by an attack. Stardameier has also dunked in front of him many times, laughing and saying that the last one is often him and the Mavericks. He got the ball at the high position and was ready to change the color!

Ye Feng knew very well Nowitzki's style of play. He had perfect shooting skills and his scoring range covered the entire half. If he wanted to disrupt his rhythm, he had to stay away from the basket. He was tightly attached and his center of gravity was very low, making Nowitzki unable to turn around easily. He could only dribble the ball horizontally from one step inside the three-point line. If he turned around and shot here, he could still ensure a high shooting percentage, Ye Feng would admit it.

It was so tight that he treated me as a guard to defend. Nowitzki didn't want to take a high-difficulty shot, passed the ball to Harris, and waited for his teammates to pass the ball. Ye Feng didn't care about Harris, and kept up with Nowitzki who was running without the ball. The Mavericks failed to hand the ball back to Nowitzki's hand several times. Ye Feng was always stuck in front of Nowitzki, forcing the ball to pass the ball, which was easy to make mistakes.

Seeing that the 24-second offensive time was about to come, Howard forced his move from the outside and missed it. Bynum grabbed the backcourt rebound. Before he could land, he heard Ye Feng yell: "Quick attack!"

As soon as Howard hit the basket, Ye Feng started to rush towards the Mavericks' half. Nowitzki was left behind from a distance, and Bynum threw the ball into the frontcourt with one hand.

The Mavericks only had the point guard Harris back to defend, and he found that Ye Feng's speed was not much worse than him. Big guys who could do this level used to have only two in the league, LeBron James and Josh Smith. Harris had a slightly superior speed, but he and Ye Feng were unable to compete with their strength at 85 kilograms.

Ye Feng jumped high and took the basketball in front of the free throw line. After landing, he rubbed Harris with his shoulder. Harris, who was retreating, stumbled on the ground and slid more than a meter away.

Ye Feng kept moving, took a big step forward with his right foot, took the ball with his right hand, jumped over Harris' head, and smashed the ball into the basket. 4 to 0.

Ye Feng turned around and returned to defense, Harris was still sitting in the penalty area in a daze. Ye Feng almost scared him to the point of jumping. He slipped and spread his legs apart. Ye Feng stepped between his legs, only one foot away from his crotch. If that step was a little bigger, he would probably be in the same game as Tony Allen, the Celtics' "Brother of Bad" and even could go directly to play wnba.

Starkhouse pulled Harris and asked, "How are you? Is it okay?"

Harris took a deep breath and sighed, "I'm fine, but this guy... is really not a human."
