The rest time of the finals was relatively long. After three days of rest, the second game began on time.

Coach Carlisle tried to change, and he allowed more people to participate in the offense, including Marion's empty cut, Terry's three-pointer, and Baria's pick-and-roll breakthrough.

To be honest, Coach Carlisle's change in offense is very good, but they still lost the game because the Mavericks' defense is still not good.

Coach Carlisle tried to defend the defense for a while, and this is the defensive lineup that the Mavericks are best at and can best hide their defensive shortcomings.

But Yao Ming's existence happens to be the nemesis of the joint defense. When Yao Ming stands on the free throw line to receive the ball, the Mavericks' defense has to tilt. Yao Ming will be posed as a great threat by the Mavericks' defense whether it is passing or mid-range!

Coach Carlisle had no choice but to give up the joint defense.

After hitting someone back and staring at him, Zhou Mubai broke out.

Kidd broke through when he was defending, and Stevens broke through when he was defending, and after breaking through, he either attacked the basket or looked for Chandler's inferiority. Iguodala and Tony Allen also got a lot of opportunities to cut and shoot.

Coach Carlisle also tried to let Baria and Terry defend Zhou Mubai.

I have to say that this idea is very good.

Baria and Terry can indeed keep up with the pace, but it doesn't work well.

Once these two people defended, Zhou Mubai would lower the post and play back alone. Baria and Terry were much different from Zhou Mubai's height, and Zhou Mubai played like Nowitzki.

Coach Carlisle had no choice but to let Marion, the best defender in the team, defend Zhou Mubai. Well, it is indeed effective. Marion is fast, tall, and has strong confrontation. He stretched his arms to cover the sky and the sun. It is indeed the most suitable to defend Zhou Mubai, but Zhou Mubai still looks for Nowitzki!

When Marion defended Zhou Mubai, Zhou Mubai was all focused on finding Nowitzki. Anyway, he had to punish Nowitzki and consume Nowitzki's physical strength to the maximum extent? This way he could consume the Mavericks' foundation.

This game is like a replica of the previous game? Even though Coach Carlisle made a lot of changes, there was no change in the overall situation? Perhaps it was the Mavericks' offense when Nowitzki attacked and the Mavericks' offense became slow. When Nowitzki didn't attack, the Mavericks' offense became slow. But no matter which one it was, the Mavericks could not stop the Knicks' offense.

To the end of the game? The Mavericks players were all confident? They found that no matter how they defended, Zhou Mubai could find a way to defeat their defense!

Yang Yi exclaimed: "No matter what defensive method the Mavericks adopt, Zhou Mubai can always react at the fastest speed, and the Knicks' routine seems to be endless.

Although I have praised Zhou Mubai countless times? But I have to praise him again.

As long as he is on the court? Coach Cole doesn't need to make any commands on the court. He just wants to say: Just give the ball to Zhou Mubai.

Coach Cole was awarded the Best Head Coach of the Year, which is probably the easiest head coach. It is completely comparable to Phil Jackson when coaching the Bulls and Ok combinations in the Lakers. He only needs to make substitution instructions and timeouts when needed.

To put it bluntly? When Zhou Mubai was present, the effect of sitting Cole Cole on the coach's seat was the same as sitting a dog? As long as the dog would substitute and beep a timeout, isn't I insulting Cole Cole? I'm just a metaphor for the Knicks' head coach that is so easy to do."

Compared to Coach Carlisle's overwhelming silence, Coach Cole does just watch the game leisurely? He doesn't feel like he doesn't have a sense of accomplishment because he doesn't need to command the situation on the court? Instead, he thinks that the head coach should be like this!

Oh? By the way, Coach Cole is also a construction coach.

How good you let him take a class of role players to play. This is not what he does, it is what Coach Adelman does.

What he is good at is selecting players who are suitable for his system and then formulating appropriate tactics to allow them to exert their players' strength on the court.

Of course, Cole is also very good at temporary command, but he doesn't need to do this, because Zhou Mubai can do these things.

The Knicks led the Mavericks 2:0, and the game was quite good. Unlike those teams that defended and won the championship, both sides had to fight.

But in the final analysis, the Knicks, who are better at defense, won two games in the end, while the Mavericks, who are flawed in defense, play well in offense, but they always have a short breath.

After all, I won the championship with defense. Some words sound bad and quite old, but this really confirms this sentence.

Alliance Office.

Stern and Xiao Hua watched the game. The more Stern looked, the more dull he became. His face was not very good. Xiao Hua looked through the ratings data handed over by his subordinates, but his face was not very good.

"Adam, this is not the finals I want at all!" Stern said.

Xiao Hua shook his head and said, "The ratings are higher than last year."

Stern snorted: "I didn't expect the Knicks to be so strong that I could allow them to build a dynasty, but winning so easily would hurt the league.

This is the second season of the Knicks entering the Finals, and I have seen the Knicks become regulars in the Finals in the next few seasons.

Moreover, the opponents will have no resistance like Dallas, and will only be beaten by the Knicks on the ground. If this is the case for a season, it would be fine. If this is the case for each season, the league will face recession!”

Xiao Hua smiled and said, "It's not that way. The Knicks cannot maintain such strong competitiveness every season..."

"No! The Knicks will be stronger! This season's Knicks are not skilled enough, and they will give you Zhou Mubai the game at a critical moment, but next season will be different, and they will become stronger and stronger!" Stern said worriedly.

Xiao Hua said: "I don't think so. The Knicks may not be able to keep the lineup intact next season. Chandler needs to renew his contract, and Jamison may be about to retire. Moreover, Zhou Mubai's contract is only one year left. Can the Knicks be able to keep Zhou Mubai?"

Stern nodded: "Is there a way?"

Xiao Hua smiled and said, "They are both popular. We don't need to make any moves. There are many teams who are willing to poach them. They will receive huge offers that the Knicks can't afford to bear."

Stern nodded and excitedly said: "Chandler won the best defensive player this season. It is absolutely worth it to give such a player a big contract. If the Knicks want to keep Zhou Mubai, they will have a big contract, but..."

Stern frowned.

Xiao Hua said with concern: "What's wrong?"

Stern frowned: "This is Zhou Mubai's second contract. As a third-grade rookie, he can't sign a big contract."

Xiao Hua smiled and said, "Then set a box for him."

Stern's eyes lit up: "What do you say?"

Xiao Hua smiled and said, "For example, set a clause - players who win the regular season MVP in the rookie season do not need to sign a contract based on the years stipulated in the labor-management agreement, and can sign a contract based on the maximum salary of players over ten years."

Stern applauded: "It's amazing! Just do it! This treaty can be called Zhou Mubai's clause."

Xiao Hua smiled and said, "That's the reason. When we return to Dallas in the next game, should we give it more difficulty?"

Stern smiled and said, "A champion without difficulties is imperfect. Only things that are obtained through blessings and hardships will be cherished. That's it."
