For Wang Zhi, tonight is definitely a game that he needs to work hard with all his strength.

After winning this ball, the Mavericks will enter the finals historically, and the fans are looking forward to it.

Recently, the Mavericks' best player is Wang Zhi, so the fans put their hopes on Wang Zhi.

In any case, Wang Zhi is not tender to disappoint these fans who support him.

Furthermore, he did not play well in the away game last time, and tonight is the best time to regain face.

So in the first quarter, Wang Zhi was on full fire, blasting 15 points and 4 assists in a single quarter, just like a Dallas family!

Speaking of who is the core player of the Mavericks, or who is the "boss", there has been no conclusion.

Although Dirk Nowitzki is the most powerful player of the Mavericks at this stage and is also well-known in the scoring list, he did not show the domineering and passion of a boss player.

Although Michael Finley has all the qualities of a leader player, his problem lies in his performance on the court.

At the beginning, he was regarded by Michael Jordan as his appointed successor, but soon, people discovered that this guy Jordan was invincible in playing basketball, but it was a different matter in terms of people's eyes.

Facts have proved that Michael Finley does not have the ability to become the next Jordan, and even he does not have the ability to become the absolute core of the Mavericks.

Neither can make it into the top ten scoring list, and it is difficult to help the team score at critical moments.

In recent seasons, Finley has become more and more inclined to become an outside shooter. Occasionally, he has a few breakthrough dunks, which only proves that his physical fitness is not bad.

That's all.

As for Steve Nash, he still doesn't seem to have that ability at present.

And now, Wang Zhi's rise to the top, let the fans see their hope of having an absolute leader!

That's right, based on Wang Zhi's state in the playoffs, especially from his explosive performance in the second round of the Western Conference semifinals, his ability is fully capable of becoming the leader of this Mavericks team.

In the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs, Wang Zhi showed the passion and responsibility that a leader should have.

50 points in a single game, leading the players to win the most critical game!

Of course, what he lacks is probably only "qualifications".

As a second-year player, his voice in this team is not enough.

But if he can maintain this strength, it won't be long before the entire locker room will listen to him.

Wang Zhi on the field is also working hard for this.

At the start of the second quarter, Wang Zhi was actively running!

He knew that the Spurs were going to double-team him, so he began to use off-ball running to disrupt the Spurs' defensive formation.

Through the off-ball coverage of his teammates, once Wang Zhi has a chance to catch the ball, the Spurs' defense will become tense, and nearby players will unconsciously double-team. In this way, opportunities are easy to appear in other positions. Shi Tiff Nash can quickly find teammates in the first place and form assists!

In this way, with Wang Zhi's strong defensive containment force, the Mavericks' offense played impressively.

And the Spurs quickly realized they had to stabilize the defense!

But in this case, Wang Zhi cannot be pinched at the first time. After Wang Zhi catches the ball, he will be the first to pose a threat to the basket at the first time!

In this case, the Spurs' defense has no way to do it.

Wang Zhi revitalized the offense of the Mavericks by himself, and the atmosphere of the whole scene was full all the time!

But fortunately, the Spurs' offense is also playing very well!

After Tony Parker's unsolvable mid-range shot in the first quarter, the Mavericks strengthened their defense on his pick-and-roll shot in the second quarter. He began to use his speed and flexibility to break into the basket to complete the score.

Driven by Parker, the Mavericks' defensive attention is naturally all on him.

Then immediately after, other Spurs players also opened up.

Duncan started to work hard and made consecutive strong attacks at the basket!

Ginobili and Bowen also hit from beyond the three-point line!

Stephen Jackson even has a strong performance of Dirk Nowitzki in singles!

Even in the away game, under the cheers, shouts, and even boos of countless fans, the Spurs' offense still played vigorously.

They even said that they directly smashed the Mavericks' defense!

It is under such circumstances that the Mavericks fans are high, but looking back, the Mavericks have not established much of a lead.

Even the lead established in the first quarter was now bit by bit eaten away by the Spurs.

In this situation, there is a feeling of "not scoring points".

After halftime, the Mavericks are at home 74:70, leading by 4 points!

Wang Zhi contributed 24 points and 7 assists in the first half, but Parker on the opposite side also scored 22 points.

The Mavericks scored 74 points in the half, which is already quite high, but the Spurs also scored 70 points.

Even in the second quarter, the Spurs scored 40+ points.

It is not difficult to see that the Mavericks' defense is indeed very hip.

During the intermission, the Mavericks fans at the scene looked at the score and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

`~What's the matter, we played so well tonight, and we only led by 4 points at halftime?"

"It's too fake. I thought that with this kind of performance, at least a 20-point lead at halftime would be right."

"It's all because of our poor defense. The Spurs' scoring is as easy as drinking water. This is completely a confrontational battle."

That's right, this is a battle of confrontation!

That's exactly what Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich is doing this game!

Through the two tables of G4 and G5, Popovich was inspired by an inspiration: if you want to win the Mavericks, you don't need to rely solely on defense to win.

In the previous four games, Popovich found that even if he (Dema Zhao) did a good job defending, once the Mavericks collectively found the touch and the crazy energy came together, no matter how strong the defense was, it would be useless.

In this case, to win the Mavericks, you need to play harder than them!

That's right, that's exactly what Mavericks head coach Nelson Sr. was thinking when he built the current Mavericks lineup.

And these concepts are ideas that Nelson had put forward when he was in the Warriors.

Popovich, who was an assistant at the time, naturally knew.

So, tonight, he plans to use an extreme attack to defeat the Mavericks!

Speaking of this, some fans can't help but ask, do the Spurs have the offensive explosive power of the Mavericks?

Maybe the explosive power is not that strong, but the persistence is definitely not low.

Especially the two players Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, their personal strength, at this stage, may be seriously underestimated. .
