The scoreboard showed 20 to 9.
Although before the ga, Mavericks fans knew the Warriors were a tough opponent...
For the Dallas people who had witnessed the team’s victory after victory during the regular season, they still couldn’t believe that, sitting at ho, they would collapse as soon as the ga started.
Like in war, the collapse in a basketball ga often carries montum.
In the NBA, there are indeed many teams that can dig themselves a hole, then fill it with subsequent performances, and thus win the ga.
But if such scenes happen every day, then the word "miracle" should be deleted from all human dictionaries.
In the latter half of the first quarter, Johnson, who hurriedly sent Daniels onto the court, didn’t know that in the first half of the first quarter, under his carefully designed late-ga strategy for the Mavericks, Richardson, the usually low-profile three-point sharpshooter, had already been ward up by them?
This is why the Warriors always go crazy when they play against the Mavericks, and the underlying logic behind it.
Because Avery Johnson, this outstanding Mavericks head coach, constantly guides the Warriors players on the court with his whimsical tactics and strategies.
In the latter half of the first quarter, Richardson hit two more three-pointers for the Warriors.
With five three-point attempts in the first quarter, and hitting four of them, Richardson almost single-handedly opened up a wide attacking space for the Warriors.
Richardson’s condition was getting better, and in the good output environnt he provided, Qin Yue was unstoppable on the court.
Despite noticing that Diop could not effectively protect Nowitzki, Johnson reasonably replaced him with Dampier in ti.
But faced with the Mavericks’ already collapsed defense, could Dampier possibly play one against five?
On the court, during the Warriors’ offensive round, seeing the Mavericks’ defense attracted by Richardson, Qin Yue, feeling completely ignored, raised his hand and threw the ball in front of Dampier, who switched onto him, and it went in!
Then, during the Mavericks’ offensive round, Nowitzki’s shot under intense pressure bounced off the rim. After grabbing the rebound, Qin Yue imdiately launched a transition offense.
The next mont, even though the entire Mavericks team retreated to defense, Davis, who was equally playing insanely, just received the ball and completed a pull-up three-pointer in front of Harris.
What’s the logic?
No logic!
Because tonight, the Warriors got increasingly accurate with their shots, so they didn’t even need to play any tactics, instead, they just crossed half-court and dared to throw it to you, then you just watch if it goes in, and that’s it!
Swoosh——!
On site, the emotions of Mavericks fans completely collapsed.
At the end of the first quarter, the scoreboard showed 45 to 18.
points in a single quarter of the playoffs.
The Warriors destroyed the defensive system that "Little General" Johnson built for the Mavericks in just one quarter.
Tonight, Mulin, who followed the Warriors to Dallas, was surprised by the team’s stunning return to the playoffs after twelve years, and couldn’t help but ponder: "If Lao Tang were still here...how could they find no room to retaliate?"
Nowitzki had to take the bla for the team’s poor performance.
At the start of the second quarter, the live broadcast cara repeatedly gave close-ups of Nowitzki.
He was one of the few normal players in the Mavericks lineup with 3 out of 7 shots in the first quarter, but this is the responsibility that cos with being the team’s leader.
As the king of Dallas, Nowitzki cannot escape, nor can he avoid it.
Unlike the regular season, Qin Yue did not choose to rest in the second quarter of this ga.
This also left Johnson, who tried to rely on a luxurious bench lineup to catch up in the first half of the second quarter, at a loss and confused.
Under Qin Yue’s orchestration, Murphy and Little Deng Liwei quickly got into rhythm once they ca on.
These two were always good at playing with the wind at their backs, especially in tonight’s lopsided ga?
And at the Arican Airlines Center, with the Warriors continuously rubbing it in and adding various condints...
Thus, at halfti, a staggering halfti score was displayed before the Dallas fans on the scene:
to 41.
The Mavericks who had won 60 gas in the regular season were trailing by 44 points in the first half of their first playoff match this year.
The Arican Airlines Center, initially explosive and imposing before the ga, first saw its noise decrease, and then one after another, fans chose to leave early.
Maybe at the beginning of the second half, only a few die-hards were willing to accompany this team to its conclusion, but...none of them would utter a single cheer for this ga.
The Mavericks owner Mark Cuban felt despairing this night.
He couldn’t understand why the Mavericks, whose paper strength far exceeded that of the Warriors, would collapse in the ga, as it exceeded his understanding of basketball, and the sport itself.
Cuban’s feelings represent those of many Mavericks supporters.
They also represent many neutral fans who ca to witness this massacre.
In the second half, the Warriors, who already began to ease up, finished their scoring at 135 points.
Thanks to the substitutes who continued to play hard, the Mavericks’ final score stood at 97 points.
Throughout the entire ga, Qin Yue, who played only 31 minutes, totaled 34 points, 14 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 blocks, and 1 steal.
Although during the ga, this G1 battle essentially entered garbage ti starting from the second quarter, considering it was his playoff career debut...
