Chapter 35 Dunk! !
An absolutely unexpected game is going on at the Wood Center right now.

Before the game, the media and commentators were unanimously optimistic that the Mavericks would win the Warriors, who have undergone tremendous changes this summer.

But now, the two teams have only reached the second half of the second quarter, and the huge score gap between the two completely shattered the jaws of those fans!

Nash reluctantly brought the ball to the frontcourt. He didn't know how many times Finley had asked him for the ball.

Since Carter's scoring and wonderful performances, Mike Finley seems to have been stimulated. As long as Nash takes the ball to the frontcourt, he will definitely ask for the ball.

Although the offense and defense were not bad a few times, Finley's somewhat grumpy shots still didn't allow him to reach his average level!

Curry followed Finley closely, with his arms wide open carefully. As a veteran who has been around for many years, he understood why Bruce would offer him a multi-year contract.

"Michael, do you know that the same great guy has retired?" Curry stared closely at Finley's reaction!
"Of course, he's the greatest guy!" Finley turned sideways, tentatively touched his right shoulder, followed by a step, came to Curry's left side, raised his hands, stretched his body and threw the ball go out!
"Didn't you hear them say that I was approaching Michael?" Finley smiled as he watched the basketball go into the hoop, and glanced triumphantly at Curry, who was silent beside him.

"When this guy was young, he was such a good scorer!" Bruce saw that Finley scored the goal. Even though Curry had worked very hard, after all, because of his age and injuries, his own athletic ability To drop a lot!
Finley recovered two points for the Mavericks, and casually followed Curry to the frontcourt!
Billups received the pass from Nowitzki, looked at the current state of the two teams, brought the ball steadily to the frontcourt, glanced at the running position of his teammates, stretched out his hand and raised his right fist, and swung it vigorously. go down!
Starting from Billups' signal, the entire Warriors ran quickly, and according to their established tactical line, they opened up the space little by little!
As a European superstar, Nowitzki has always been praised by coaches and scouts for his high IQ in playing.

Seeing that most of AC Green's attention was on Curry and Billups, Nowitzki trotted all the way to cover Curry, and then ran to the left corner very quickly!
Billups has been observing Nowitzki's running position for a long time. When he saw Nowitzki's position, he moved very realistically and passed the ball to Curry on the right three-point line.

Seeing that it attracted Green's attention, he then secretly drew the ball in a half-arc on his chest, and passed a through ball to Nowitzki who was already ready to shoot!

Catch and shoot!
Every movement, Nowitzki is extremely standard, raised his hands high, with his height, the ball ran to the basket with a high arc at the moment when Bradley was about to block the block!
Annoyed, Jamison pushed Marshall behind him, his eyes fixed on the trajectory of the basketball falling!
"Shh!"

A voice announcing that the goal had been scored echoed in Jamison's ears, and he felt indescribably complicated for a while.

"Great job!" Bruce stood up excitedly, shouted loudly, and then proudly looked at Nelson, whose face was getting more serious on the other side!
"I have to say that Bruce Young has a unique vision!" Seeing Bruce's actions, the commentator sincerely admired him for his rookie vision.

"F..K" Nelson cursed angrily. Although he had already obtained the specific performance of Nowitzki when he sent scouts to Europe, when the Warriors traded Jamison, he still Can't wait to pick this nationally known elite college player!

Seeing that Nowitzki has not only begun to adapt to the rhythm of the NBA, but also showed his talent in shooting, this alone makes Nelson a little regretful!
Watching Nowitzki get the help of his teammates to fire consecutive shots, Jamison couldn't help but have the illusion of being forgotten by his teammates. He has had several very good scoring opportunities, but Finley's dominance is what he wants to prove. His chance was ruthlessly taken away.

"drop!!"

Nelson called a timeout with an uneasy expression. He was extremely disappointed with the performance of the main players on the court. Even if Finley recovered a few points in a row, it was not what he wanted after all!
"Mike, you need to pay attention to the habits of your teammates!" Nelson said to the satisfied Finley with a cold face, pointed to Eric Strickland, and said: "Eric, next you Come replace Mike!"

Finley, who was complacent, suddenly heard Nelson's words, and his smiling expression froze instantly. He didn't understand Nelson's substitution: "Donnie, I can continue to play!"

"You have to think about the tactical requirements!" Nelson said perfunctorily, ignoring Finley's ugly expression, and said very quickly: "Samaki (Walker), you replace Sean (Bradley) .”

Jamison listened nervously to the coach's arrangement, thought about his performance in the second quarter, and couldn't help praying to God, he must not be replaced by Nelson!
"Antoine, you are now at the top of the power forward!" Jamison nodded in surprise, Nelson pointed to another eager player, and said: "Cedric (Ceballos), You replace AC and focus on small forwards!"

Nash looked happily at the other two point guard players, nodded apologetically, and then listened carefully to Nelson's arrangement.

"Next, we're going to start the official bombardment tactics!" Nelson looked at these players in turn with a serious face, clapped the tactical board in his hand heavily, and said, "I don't care who has vacancies, as long as there is a chance Gotta throw the ball to me and Steve will get it to you when you get open!"

Nash nodded gratefully. From Nelson's words, it's not hard to hear his trust in himself, which cannot be obtained in the Suns with Jason Kidd!
"Understood?" Nelson asked seriously after the whistle sounded to start the game!

"Understood!"

Bruce listened to Carlesimo's arrangement with some doubts, he didn't know what to say anymore!
"Next, Ben! You replace Foyle, VC takes the small forward position, John (Starks) replaces Chauncey, Donyell goes to the power forward position!" Carlesimo quickly moved The personnel adjustment is good. Although frequent substitutions may affect the stability of the lineup, the Warriors, who have undergone huge personnel changes, must knead a complete main lineup in a very short period of time.

Nowitzki wiped the sweat off his head in satisfaction, looked at Wallace with a surprised face, and glanced at Carlesimo who didn't care about his own feelings, and was attracted by the voice behind him !
"Dirk! Your performance is very good!" Bruce noticed Carlesimo's ignorance, and hurriedly said to Nowitzki!
"Thank you!" Nowitzki had a very good impression of Bruce. Although he didn't know what the other party liked about him, after all, there were not many people in the team who really became friends with him!
Bruce nodded with a smile. When he looked at Carlesimo, he frowned subconsciously. He didn't know why the humble Nowitzki couldn't get the other party's kindness.

Since Nowitzki joined the team, Carlesimo has often ignored this soft-touch big guy. If he ignored him, he was still included in the lineup during the rotation of personnel. This is what makes Bruce extremely I can't figure out the reason!

The two teams played again. At the referee's whistle, Nash took the pass from his teammate and rushed forward quickly!
Starks followed closely beside Nash, carefully turning his head to observe the situation behind him!
Wallace excitedly followed Samaki Walker, he just loved the guy who only knew how to yell.

Relying on his powerful strength, he squeezed Samaki closer to the free throw line little by little, and entangled with the opponent with his greatest strength!
Feeling the powerful force behind him, Samaki's face flashed with anger, and he leaned back hard. When he found out that the force continued to come from behind him helplessly, his right elbow angrily turned to Wallace behind him. go!
"drop!"

From the beginning of the entanglement between Wallace and the two, the linesman stared closely. When he saw Samaki's movements, he simply blew the whistle in his mouth regardless of whether this was the opponent's home court or not!

"White 52 fouled!"

Bruce looked at the unhappy Samaki with a funny face, and the other party's antics completely amused him!
"Sir, I'm just doing normal actions!" Samaki ran up to the referee with his arms wide open.

"Man, don't you think my eyes are very beautiful?" The referee looked at Samaki in front of him playfully, made a zipper movement with his right hand on his mouth, and then ran towards the sideline with a smile!
"Hahaha!" The audience who were closer to the two laughed at the referee's funny words. Even though Samaki is a player of the home team, they also expressed their understanding of the humorous referee's penalty!

Because the number of fouls has not yet been reached, the ball still belongs to the Warriors!

Carter passed the ball to Starks and quickly ran to the right corner!
Seeing that his teammates were running their own tactical routes, Starks took a look at the positions of the players of the two teams, quickly handed the ball to Curry, and quickly cut to the inside with the help of his teammates!
Curry kept slapping the ball in his hand, and was about to pass the ball, when he suddenly saw Carter running towards the inside at high speed from the corner on the right. The ball is thrown to the right side of the basket!
Carter took a quick step forward, relying on his powerful bounce, ignoring Samaki who had just gotten rid of Wallace on the left side of the penalty area, and stepped hard on the floor with his right foot with a "bang", like a rocket full of energy , quickly leaped into the air!
"boom!!"

A huge roar came from the loudspeaker on the basket.

The fans who saw this scene were completely shocked.

"God! Please help that poor guy!" The narrator looked excitedly at this "dunk dunk", looked worriedly at Samaki who was knocked into the air by Carter, and then shouted loudly: "This The dunk will definitely be among the best five shots of the day, and VC will definitely be one of the candidates for the best player among the rookies!!"

"Brilliant!!" Bruce didn't know how many times he stood up and cheered for this guy's shocking dunk. He didn't know how many times he watched Carter's dunk highlights in his previous life, until he saw this super dunk with his own eyes. Only then did I truly experience the passion that I will never feel in the video! !

In the next few rounds, under Carter's extremely strong dunks, the entire Warriors seemed to be in a state of chicken blood. It has become a performance stage for all the players of the Warriors, and wonderful goals again and again have completely ignited the Mavericks' home court!
Originally, as long as the Warriors scored a goal, there was a huge booing in the arena, but starting from Carter's slam dunk, coupled with the weak performance of the home team, the fans warmly gave the Warriors their suppressed excitement. Team!

When Carter completed another beautiful dunk, the whistle sounded in the first half!

Bruce glanced excitedly at the huge display screen hanging above the stadium. When he saw the score of 60:48, his heart was filled with deep pride for everything he had done!
