With the attention of fans all over the world, G1 of the battle between horses and bulls started!

As soon as it comes up, the Spurs hit the ball to their best point, Tim Duncan!

As the most powerful striker of our time, Duncan, who was even touted by some fans as the number one power striker in history, actually played the position of center forward in this game!

Of course, he is also fully capable of this position!

In the series where the Spurs eliminated the Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals, Duncan averaged 28 points and 12 rebounds per game, against Shaquille O'Neal with 25 points and 14 rebounds.

Indeed, in this league, to find a player inside who can compete with Shaquille O'Neal, Tim is the only one left!

A man who can overwhelm the big sharks is naturally not something the Mavericks' weak insiders can deal with.

As soon as he came up, the Spurs frequently gave the ball to Duncan. He wanted anything at the basket. All kinds of non-flashy, but highly practical basket attacks hit consecutively, whether it was LaFrentz or Nowitzki Defense, there is no way to prevent it.

On the other hand, the Mavericks, they played continuously at the beginning. Perhaps they fought too hard against the Kings in the tiebreaker, and the players were exhausted. They only rested for two days, and then went on to play the Western Conference finals. The state seemed a bit bad.

In the opening game, the Mavericks were beaten 2:13.

Fortunately, Dirk Nowitzki and Michael Finley found their touch and hit three-pointers one after another to help the Mavericks continue to score.

But on the defensive end, the Mavericks couldn't defend against the Spurs at all. After being beaten by Duncan, they had no choice but to double-team Duncan at the basket. However, after Duncan made the ball

Other players on the Spurs can also score the ball.

For a while, the Mavericks' poor defense was sieved by the Spurs.

At 7 minutes into the first quarter, Wang Zhi and Van Exel appeared in the rotation.

However, Wang Zhi, who has received much attention, did not continue his incredible performance against the Kings in the last round. After playing, Wang Zhi made two consecutive three-pointers with a step-back step out of the gap.

Just relying on a layup after picking up an offensive rebound, he scored the only 2 points in the first quarter of today.

After the first quarter, the Mavericks were 13 points behind the Spurs at 23:36 away.

For the Spurs, Duncan was unstoppable. He scored 1046 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in a single quarter, which was very unsolvable.

For the Mavericks, only Finley and Nowitzki contributed 7 points respectively.

One game, the atmosphere of the home field has been completely driven up!

Before the game, although the media from all sides felt that the Spurs had an advantage over the Mavericks, they just didn't expect the advantage to be so obvious!

This point of Duncan made it very difficult for the Mavericks to deal with, and the Spurs' internal and external defense also limited the Mavericks' offense very well.

It seems that the Mavericks were completely suppressed, and even Wang Zhi, who had an explosive performance in the last round, was a bit sluggish today.

But in fact, the Mavericks face far more problems than these.

The most important thing is the issue of physical energy consumption.

It's really not easy to beat the Kings, let's fight in the tiebreaker!

The NBA schedule is like this, if the team that reaches the tie-break, the next round is an away game, there is almost no rest time,

They just won the game there, and they are going to the away game the next day, preparing for the next round that is about to start.

Although the players of the Mavericks are all young, the consumption of the last round of the game is still great.

Especially Wang Zhi, in the tiebreaker, he ran wildly and scored a triple-double with 36 points. At the critical moment of the fourth quarter, he even "hand-to-hand" with the home team players

Although the Mavericks' medical team has given him a lot of restorative treatment in the past two days.

But as soon as he played tonight, he could still feel some stiffness in his shooting.

Of course, the medical staff of the medical team will tell Wang Zhi: "This kind of situation will not last long. Generally speaking, after you have warmed up enough on the court, the feeling of stiffness and muscle soreness will follow you. The movement turns on and disappears."

Sure enough, in the second quarter, Wang Zhi just recovered his form!

At the beginning of the game, he first broke through and assisted Van Exel to score a three-pointer.

Immediately afterwards, he broke through the basket by himself, shot a fake shot and flew off the defender, turned around and made a shot.

But not long after, Wang Zhi was replaced. It was obvious that Nelson was planning to play Wang Zhi with the main lineup in the second half of the second quarter!

In the rotation contest at the beginning of the second quarter, the Mavericks gained an advantage, and the nerve knife Van Exel scored 7 points in a row "quickly helping the team to catch up with the score.

On the Spurs side, Manu Ginobili, the core player in the rotation, has repeatedly hit the iron.

Under such circumstances, Popovich quickly changed back to the main lineup to stabilize the situation.

Once up, Duncan put the Mavericks under the rim again with strong offensive and defensive pressure.

After the Mavericks switched to the main force, Steve Nash first found his touch and hit consecutive three-pointers. Then, Nash assisted Wang Zhi and Dirk Nowitzki to score points!

The Mavericks are attacking sharply!

Obviously, the Spurs are a strong defensive team. Their defensive ability is much stronger than that of the Kings, but their defensive system and defensive habits are completely different from the Kings.

Regarding the defense of Dirk Nowitzki, the Spurs are not as extreme as the Kings, and they double-team ruthlessly at every turn.

The Spurs' defense against Nowitzki is just a single defense!

When Dirk Nowitzki reached the middle and long range, he used Stephen Jackson to defend. Although Stephen Jackson was only 204 tall, which was nearly 10 centimeters behind Dirk Nowitzki, he was defending Dirk Nowitzki When Sky is shooting mid-range and long-range shots, he has good mobility, coupled with good wingspan and defensive awareness, he can actually effectively interfere with Nowitzki.

And if Nowitzki wants to use his height to go to the basket to force Stephen Jackson, Tim Duncan's supplementary defense will be in place!

You know, Tim Duncan may have the strongest defensive awareness and ability in the entire league.

It is precisely because of this defensive strategy that Dirk Nowitzki was given some offensive opportunities. Nash found Dirk through his pick-and-roll, and the latter scored some key goals.

And Wang Zhi also scored two wonderful goals in the second half of the second quarter.

So, in the second quarter of the game, the Mavericks with offensive efficiency beat the Spurs 34:30

At halftime, the Mavericks were still 9 points behind at 57:66.

For the Mavericks, Dirk Nowitzki, who was restricted for almost the entire round last round, finally scored 16 points at halftime today, and was happy for a while.

Nash scored 10 points, Wang Zhi 9 points.

For the Spurs, Tim Duncan was unstoppable. He scored 26 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists in the first half.

After such a halftime, the fans and the media also have a judgment on the situation of this round of the Western Conference Finals.

"It's difficult for the Mavericks. Although they finally played their sharp offense in the second quarter, the key is that they can't prevent the Spurs' offense. Let's see how a team like the Spurs can score 66 points in the half. ball?"

"No way, the Spurs are too comprehensive, Duncan can't solve the basket, the Mavericks' defense is too poor, the Spurs can score very stably, and once the Mavericks' offense stagnates, then they will be cold."

"Hey, Wang Zhi, the magic boy, can't do it anymore. The Spurs' defense is really good, not to mention that they are really good at every point of their defense!"

"Bruce Bowen locked up Michael Finley, Stephen Jackson can also play a certain role in limiting Dirk Nowitzki, and that sentence can win the championship

On the far side of the ocean, many Dragon Country fans got up early to watch the Western Conference Finals.

Although the fans in China still don't know the inside story of the Wang Zhi incident, many fans have been conquered by Wang Zhi's personal ability thanks to his incredible performance against the Kings in the last round. It's not a pleasant event, but in the current NBA playoffs, most fans of Dragon Kingdom are willing to cheer for Wang Zhi and expect Wang Zhi and the Mavericks to perform well.

Today, they still expect Wang Zhi's magic to continue.

However, after halftime, Wang Zhi's performance gave them some hope.

4 of 10 in the half, with 9 points scored.

In all fairness, for a second-year player to hand over such half-time statistics on the stage of the Western Conference Finals, it is not bad.

Even compared to Wang Zhi's average of 19 points per game against the Trail Blazers in the first round, this statistic has already completed the task.

However, the blame is that Wang Zhi averaged 33 points per game against the Kings in the last round, and even had a miraculous moment of a tiebreaker and a triple-double!

The appetite of Longguo fans has been brought to a very high level by Wang Zhi. They came to the game today to see his performance.

But Wang Zhi didn't show that kind of state, so the voice of the fans' discussion changed.

"Tch, I played really badly today. What happened to my performance in the last round? That's it?"

"Let me just say that playing the Kings was just a coincidence. It was because the guy had a great touch, and the Kings' defense was focused on Dirk Nowitzki, so he had a chance.

"Hey, Bai got up early, if this level, what's the point?"

"This traitor, shouldn't he be beaten back to his original form?"

At this moment, Longguo, Longdu, and the Basketball Association are making intensive preparations to sincerely invite Wang Zhi to return to the team for the second time!

The leaders of the Basketball Association would never have imagined that the immediate superior of the General Administration of Sports would personally come forward for Wang Zhi, asking him to "invite" Wang Zhi back to the national team.

Of course, he should also be able to think of it.

After all, Wang Zhi played a superstar explosive performance in the NBA playoffs.

If a player of this level really is in Longguo, he is not just a superstar, he is simply a national treasure!

With a player of this level joining, if he joins forces with Dayao, think about it, how strong will it be in the national arena?

Besides, Longguo Sports is telling the development, especially in basketball, which has such an influence, that top players like Wang Zhi are very much needed.

Of course, these are not the most important!

What really made the General Administration of Sports issue the death order was not because Wang Zhi was expelled from the national team.

He is not in the national team list, which means that other national teams can recruit him. With the strength Wang Zhi has shown so far, there must be many strong European teams wanting to recruit him.

Especially recently, the General Administration of Sports has heard a lot of inside stories about Wang Zhizhi's return from foreign media, as well as the recruitment of him by other European national teams.

So, once Wang Zhi really joined those European national teams and played a strong performance in the international arena.

So for Dragon Country Basketball, and even Dragon Country Sports, it is the biggest slap in the face!

It was also for this reason that the General Administration of Sports issued this death order.

Now, the leader of the basketball association

Regret green ah.

There is an old saying in Longguo, "It's easy to ask God to send God away, but it's hard to send God away". Now he just says "It's easy to send God away, but it's hard to invite God back again!"

Regret, really regret, why did you fire Wang Zhi in the first place? Why did you ban him?

Of course, at the beginning, he never thought that Wang Zhi would reach such a height so quickly!

Yes, a player who averaged 5 points per game in the NBA and is almost out of the team, how did he suddenly become like this?

The leader of the Basketball Association couldn't figure it out at all. Of course, he didn't have time to put it off.

Now, he only has one hope, that is, to invite back this "great god" Wang Zhi as soon as possible, otherwise, if the inside story of the non-return incident breaks out, or the General Administration of Sports gets angry,

His job might be lost!

Obviously, their first action 540 failed.

The reason for the failure was lack of sincerity.

Of course, the leaders of the Basketball Association also know that sincerity is indeed insufficient, but what exactly is enough sincerity?

Returning through the two "pioneers" who failed to "invite" Wang Zhi back for the first time, they noticed and discussed several important aspects.

First, when we met that night, Wang Zhi looked very busy, and came to meet them very late, and took them to a very luxurious nightclub for consumption.

This proves that Wang Zhi's life in Dallas is very comfortable.

Second, when we met at the nightclub, Wang Zhi was accompanied by two beauties with good looks and figure, one of them was a little red Hollywood actress.

This point shows that Wang Zhi lives a colorful life.

Thirdly, when we finally got down to business, Wang Zhi just scolded the Basketball Association and the leaders of the Basketball Association severely.

This shows that Wang Zhi is still brooding over the unfair treatment of him by the Basketball Association.

Aiming at these three points, the leader of the Basketball Association immediately made a plan!

He felt that the two people sent last time were not strong enough, and this time, he had to go with another group of people.

Ever since, a secret audition started immediately!

The title of this audition is "The Most Beautiful Journalist", and the selection criteria are all based on beauty contests. In addition, for the final winners, they also need to have skilled

English, certain journalistic ability.

The purpose of this selection seems to be obvious. It seems that the leaders of the Basketball Association are planning to send a few people from the Dragon Kingdom based on the first and second points of the analysis, especially the second point.

The beautiful girl went over and "cleared" Wang Zhi again.

For Wang Zhi's appetite, of course he is sincere.

Although some people questioned at the meeting: "Great leaders, I think the first and second items are not the key, the most critical place should be in the third item, Wang Zhi is for us to go

What he did in 2009 is still bitter, shouldn't you go there and ask him to come back in person?"

Regarding this statement, the leader of the Basketball Association scoffed, but on the surface, he also said: "I will go, it is no problem, but I am an old man, Wang Zhi is just a young man, certainly not

For those who like to deal with people like us, let the young people communicate with each other, and when he returns to Longdu, I will host a banquet to welcome him personally!"

What he said was reasonable and well-founded.

But those people below all know that their big leader | is the most face-saving.

Let him go to Wang Zhi and confess his mistake in a low voice, and then ask him to come back? I'm afraid it's impossible.

Otherwise, the Basketball Association would not have overturned because of the Asian Championships, and would have blamed Wang Zhi.

Not to mention that Wang Zhi would not return to the team directly in a fit of anger, so he would be expelled, and even banned in Longguo.

In this way, it is because of the Basketball Association and the leaders of the national team that they are too embarrassed to take responsibility.

This time, it's not easy. .
