197【Jimmy Butler's Wrath】
Facing a rebounding maniac like DeAndrew Jordan, Emperor Embiid knows very well that he cannot gain advantage in the position with the former, and in turn, he may hurt himself.
Therefore, generally, he directly chooses to give up on rebounds that are insignificant like this.
The first shot is to the shooter, the second shot is to either attack by yourself or the team leader.
In the Mavericks' second attack, Luka Doncic successfully found Jiang Hao who was sliding towards the basket from the right corner. His overall situation looked so clear.
Bang!
In the past month, for Dallas Mavericks fans, they have become familiar with the cooperation between 007 and the Bayonet.
It was just a seemingly flowing air-connecting cooperation that still made everyone scream.
For the Philadelphia 76ers, the start didn't look very friendly because their offense was not good, while the Mavericks felt hot.
At the critical moment, Jimmy Butler stood up and still broke through with the ball to make a foul. He helped the team score 2 points.
Jiang Hao pointed at Harris Barnes in the head. He was a little dissatisfied with Harris Barnes' defense just now.
To be honest, Jimmy Butler is not a player who is good at breaking through the ball. In this case, why do you have to do your best to stop his breakthrough?
Just let go of your hand and let him break through, so what? There is no need to make defensive moves immediately in a gambling style.
Harris Barnes shrugged a little apologetically. He unconditionally accepted the criticism of the bayonet, not because Jiang Hao was the leader, but after more than two months of competition, Jiang Hao had conquered him with his own abilities.
In fact, Jiang Hao conquered more than just Harris Barnes?
In today's Dallas Mavericks, no player is dissatisfied with Jiang Hao.
And all of this was won by Jiang Hao with one incredible performance after another on the court.
Dallas Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle often lamented that the Bayonet was one of the fastest players he had ever seen to conquer the locker room.
After all, in NB, almost everyone is radiant in the halo of genius. Being the leader of a team looks radiant, but in fact, not every player can become a leader, and not every superstar can be suitable for a leader.
Take Jimmy Butler, the Philadelphia 76ers, for example. Before he joined the Philadelphia 76ers, he spent one part of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
At that time, almost everyone thought Jimmy Butler would become the "new wolf king" of the Minnesota Timberwolves.,
But what is the result?
Even the iron coach Thibodeau did not stop him from being swept out.
Therefore, it is not as easy as expected to become a team leader, but it is even more difficult to become a team leader in the shortest time.
Especially when you are a rookie.
Among the NB teams, the team leaders are generally divided into two types. One is the cold-blooded and stern type represented by Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, and the other is the relatively peaceful nature of being good at interpersonal relationships represented by LeBron James.
In the view of Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle, Jiang Hao's leadership style is neither cold-blooded and harsh, nor peaceful.
His leadership style should be a doctrine of the mean.
In other words, it is both cold-blooded and harsh, and it is also peaceful and close to others, and it is also a Spurs Tim Duncan-like leading by example.
It has to be admitted that this leadership style indeed condenses the Mavericks locker room into a rope.
In the Mavericks' offense, Jiang Hao was pushing with the ball this time. For other teams in the league, this may be one of the reasons why they feel uncomfortable with the Mavericks.
Because of the Mavericks' starting lineup, both of them can play point guards. In many cases, the Mavericks' breakthrough and transformation tactics can easily disrupt their defensive rhythm.
Just like this time.
Originally, Ben Simmons let go of Luka Doncic, but when Jiang Hao held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, he had to switch defense with Jimmy Butler and came forward to defend Jiang Hao.
To be honest, Jiang Hao can perform easily when facing defensive players like Jimmy Butler. Ben Simmons is also very defensive at any time, but he does not have much defensive experience and lacks enough experience. In this case, he can only pay the tuition obediently.
At the top of the arc, Jiang Hao used Matthews' cover to complete a three-pointer.
Ben Simmons was a little annoyed because he gave the bayonet a chance to complete 31.
This season, Jiang Hao's free throw line has reached a terrifying 95%. In this case, it may be a matter of time before the bayonet completes 31.
brush!
Sure enough!
Within a few minutes of the first quarter, the Bayonet scored 6 points and showed an extremely hot state.
On the Philadelphia 76ers bench, head coach Brett Brown looked at the stadium with a sad face. For his team, if the bayonet cannot be limited to this point tonight, the hope of winning will be narrowed wirelessly.
Because players like Bayonet are too destructive.
Emperor Embiid finally opened, his steps were very good, he fooled Harris Barnes and completed a layup.
To be honest, Jiang Hao envies the empathy of the Great Emperor, and he has been studying various excellent steps recently.
Among them, Olajuwon's dreamy footsteps are the ones he has studied and imitated the most.
But not every player is suitable for fantasy footsteps, and fantasy footsteps, as Olajuwon's signature, cannot be learned at once.
Even though Jiang Hao has the top learning talent, he seems a little overwhelmed when he really learns.
After all, many times, you cannot get some essence when recording.
Jiang Hao is already trying to contact Olajuwang. Even if he pays expensive tuition, he hopes that he can grasp the dream steps as soon as possible.
And tonight, he really envied when he saw the love using very standard dream steps.
Of course, this also proves from the side that Embiid does have strong talents.
At the basket, Embiid did not continue his usual style after making a shot, and celebrated passionately.
Because for him, the start of the game was a failure.
The bayonet on the opposite side felt hot and had already scored 6 points, and he had just scored. This kind of Rakshasa made him feel depressed.
At the beginning of this season, compared with Matthews, who was extremely unstable in the special account last season, Rick Carlisle basically didn't even think about it, so he let Dwight Powell replace Matthews' starting position.
Compared to Matthews, although Dwight Powell has average scoring ability, he can make more contributions on the defensive end.
However, as the schedule deepened, Rick Carlisle found that it seemed that this was not the case. Dwight Powell's performance was far lower than expected. Not only did he not provide much help on the offensive end, but he was often sleepwalking on the defensive end.
In this case, he took a try attitude and redirected Matthews back to the starting lineup. What he didn't expect was that Matthews, who returned to the starting lineup, performed very stably.
During this period, Matthews not only could Changjun hit 31 and drink three-pointers, but also performed extremely hard on the defensive end.
Rick Carlisle had to admit that Matthews once again won his trust through his own hard work.
This is also why Matthews was able to continue to start in this Christmas game tonight.
Judging from his performance in the past few minutes of the first quarter, Matthews is definitely worthy of his skills.
After hitting the team's first three-pointer at the beginning of the game, he hit another three-pointer just now.
Help the team widen the gap to 7 points!
This made Rick Carlisle smile again. The players performed very well in this Christmas game tonight at least at the beginning of the game.
2112!
The first timeout for the first quarter was a regular timeout.
It’s just that the difference between the two sides surprised many people.
Is the Mavericks who play at home 9 points ahead?
Is Philadelphia 76 so weak?
You should know that in their past five consecutive victories, they all established a significant lead in the first quarter.
But, what happened tonight?
How did the Dallas Mavericks gain an advantage in turn?
Is the Dallas Mavericks who are fighting at home too strong?
"Tough? Don't you understand? I didn't nag a strong man about the temperament he should have. On the contrary, what I saw was a moist and soft lamb to be slaughtered."
Jimmy Butler was on the bench in Philadelphia 76ers, and Jimmy Butler was excited. He directly made head coach Brett not optimistic about losing his chance to speak, while he turned around and squatted at his teammates and squirted wildly.
Brett Brown chose to endure Jimmy Butler's behavior, because although he felt that Jimmy Butler was a bit over the top, what Jimmy Butler said made some sense.
Looking at the players' performance on the defensive end in the past few minutes, it's really terrible. This is why the Dallas Mavericks were able to quickly score 21 points.
And what about the other way around?
The Dallas Mavericks did a good job on the defensive end, allowing them to only score 12 points.
Although the best defense is offense, the Philadelphia 76ers don't go, a player who can attack.
But when facing a team with balanced offense and defense like the Dallas Mavericks, if you can't do better on the defensive end, then they can only be boiled by warm water and unblocked the ball with you step by step.
Jimmy Butler's lecture kept all the Philadelphia 76ers quiet. Although everyone doesn't like Jimmy Butler's merciless way of speaking, they also know that Jimmy Butler is an extremely competitive person. The reason why he is really excited is that he just wants to win.
Chapter completed!
