Chapter 905 Xie Kai VS Barea
Back from the timeout, JJ Barea came on and replaced Ferrer.Obviously, coach Carlisle has resorted to his secret weapon.
In the distant 2011 Western Conference Finals, in the critical G3, Carlisle used Barea to defend against Xie Kai, limiting the latter and becoming a turning point in that round of the series.Now that 6 years have passed, Xie Kai has also become the active No.1, while Barea has been tossing and turning in the past few years, and faced Xie Kai again after returning to the Mavericks.
Wang Zixing asked: "Mr. Ma, do you think the Mavericks can change the unfavorable situation on the field by replacing Barea?"
Ma Jian replied: "It's hard to say. If you pinch Xie Kai, it depends on the certainty of the player who gets the open space after the ball. If the hand feels bad, the Mavericks have a good hand. The score can theoretically be determined." Chased after."
Of course, Xie Kai will not forget Barea. It was this man who made him realize that his skills were flawed in the summer of 2011, and he needed to add other means to his arsenal.So he would also like to thank this man who is only 1 meters, it is he who made himself hard to keep improving.
Barea dribbles over and picks and rolls with Powell.
Although Barea is 33 years old, his speed is still very fast, he almost slipped through the waist of the duck egg, and suddenly rushed over.
The Thunder defended and Barea scored the ball.
The Mavericks move the ball quickly, and it ends up in Barnes' hands, who shoots a 3 - and hits it!
At 14:10, the Mavericks' offensive efficiency was also very high, and the score was not opened.
The reason why Barnes left the Warriors that year was ultimately because of the arrival of Durant.The Warriors have the opportunity to eat Durant, and the latter is also interested, so he has to leave.
Although the North Carolina Blackhawks are not superstars, they averaged 19.2 points, 5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game last season, and they are young, so they are worthy of his contract.
It's just that his competitor is Durant, so he is destined to give up.
Wang Zixing sighed: "Mr. Ma, the offense of the Mavericks is really good."
Ma Jian looked calm and composed: "I said before that if the Mavericks want to compete with the Thunder, they must play their own offense. They have no chance of winning if they defend."
Westbrook came over with a dribble and continued to look for Xie Kai. Here, Barea really followed Xie Kai like a shadow, to the point of stalking.Obviously, the purpose of Carlisle replacing him was to target Xie Kai.
Westbrook threw the ball into the air, and Xie Kai jumped lightly, using his height to get the ball.
Barea has been moving around Xie Kai's waist, controlling the opponent's lower body, waiting for opportunities to harass and disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm, which is the essence of his defense.Regardless of his short wingspan, his strength is very good, and his center of gravity is low, so ordinary defenders can't support him at all.
Xie Kai held the ball with one hand and faced Barea, the other players of the Thunder team immediately opened up space.Many of them know the story of Xie Kai and Barea in 2011, so they all want to see how the double MVP of last season faced their old opponents.
Xie Kai's expression was very relaxed, without too many complicated emotions.He doesn't think that Barea is his enemy, he respects this little man very much, because if he wants to survive in the NBA, he needs to pay a lot more sweat than others.
K honey at the scene was very excited. They hadn't seen Xie Kai play against Barea for a long time.That is to say, it is really bold for Carlisle to let a player of Barea's stature face off Xie Kai.Of course, Carlisle has done a lot of bold things. In the 2011 Finals, he even let Barea go to the low post to top James...
Barea is a stalker, he is not afraid of Xie Kai's breakthrough, he is afraid of the opponent's shooting, because his height and wingspan cannot interfere with the opponent.
Xie Kai held the ball in his left hand and faked a pass. Barea didn't eat fakes at all.
Xie Kai made a false move to the left, and immediately took the right hand to break through!
Barea reacted extremely quickly and followed immediately.
Xie Kai's breakthrough is not particularly fast, even his top first step in the league is useless, he breaks through with his right hand, and his non-offensive left hand protects the ball well, even if Barea's center of gravity is low, he can't destroy the offense Or steal the ball.
Xie Kai came over with the ball, changed direction and pulled the ball with his crotch unhurriedly, then caught it ahead of time, then changed the speed, then caught it behind his back, and then pressed his center of gravity to go diagonally.After a complete set, Barea has been thrown away inexplicably!
Xie Kai cuts in, faces Powell, takes off, leans against the opponent, uses the air, and makes a move after the whistle blows.The ball bounced twice on the rim and finally fell into the rim!
Wow--
The fans at the scene exploded in an instant, especially K Mi. Xie Kai's ball really fully demonstrated his personal strength. He didn't use his height to bully Barea. Instead, he dribbled the ball past the opponent and scored 2+1!
Wang Zixing sighed: "Mr. Ma thanked Kai for the current attack. I really feel like I can do whatever I want!"
Ma Jian nodded: "Xie Kai's offensive rhythm is better than before. In the past, his offense relied more on speed and fake moves. Now he can be fast or slow, which is unpredictable."
When the fans shouted "MVP" in unison, Xie Kai walked to the free throw line. He opened his hand and hit an extra penalty, rewriting the score to 17:10.
Xie Kai has scored 10 points at this time, and there are still more than 7 minutes before the end of the first quarter.
The offensive end of the Mavericks is really strong, and Barea and Powell succeeded in the alley-oop!
17: 12!
Westbrook came over with a dribble and parted ways.
Xie Kai continued to hit Barea with the ball, leaned on the opponent and walked in, made a real turn after a series of false turns, threw half of the opponent away, cut in, faced Powell's frame, and made a high throw with his left hand-hitting the board !
19:12, the point difference is still 7 points!
Xie Kai has already scored 12 points. He made all 5 shots and has not missed a single shot.
Carlisle on the sidelines was speechless. The team's offense did not have any problems, and it could even be said to be super-performing. However, the opponent Xie Kai played this way. It can only be said that there are superstars, and they can really do whatever they want.
The Mavericks' offense was also crazy. Barnes hit his second 2-pointer in this section with pickled peppers.
19:15, the score difference reached 4 points!
Xie Kai dribbled the ball directly from the backcourt, facing Barea's defense, crossed and changed directions continuously, suddenly stopped suddenly, retreated, and feinted...
The old fritter Barea was shaken by Xie Kai's realistic fake move, but he still took off.Of course, after he took off, he found that Xie Kai didn't jump, and knew that he had been fooled, but he was already in the air, and he was no longer in charge.
Xie Kai took off, and after the whistle sounded, he threw the ball. The shape of his shooting hand did not change, and the trajectory of the ball was also extremely accurate!
"Shua—" The ball crashed into the net!
3+1, this is a 3+1!
The fans at the scene are crazy, this ball is too hard!The answer ball of this kind of response really makes people's blood spurt, and they can't help themselves!
