After returning to Okla, Durant looked at the comments online for a long time. Looking at the photo of Yun Lie and Kobe, Durant thought to himself," Do I also lack a successful team?……
What Yun Lie couldn't have imagined was that the person who had caused Durant to have the idea of forming a group was actually Yun Lie himself. However, Yun Lie did not have the time to care about Durant's psychology. After winning against the Thunder, the Los Angeles Clippers would face the challenge of the Mavericks. This was the first back-to-back game of the season for the Los Angeles Clippers.
As for the Mavericks who came to challenge him, as one of the three major lies in Texas, the Mavericks were very weak. The story of the Mavericks was bizarre and no one in the league could compare to it. From 2006 to 2012, a full six years, the story of the Mavericks could be called a famous book with ups and downs.
In 2006, the Mavericks finally passed the defending champion Spurs in the playoffs and entered the finals with a 2-0 lead.
However, they were defeated by the desire to win and the referee. They lost four games in a row. Wade eliminated the Mavericks with free throws, and the Flash became famous.
The next year, the Mavericks made a comeback. This time, they were even stronger. In the regular season, they swept the Spurs, crushed the Suns, and won 67 games. They successfully entered the finals with the first place in the league. Everyone thought that this time, the people of Texas were going to fulfill their dreams.
Old Driver, who had just won the MVP of the regular season, was in high spirits, indicating that they were the only opponents!
However, that year, he met the explosive Baron Davis, who was led by Stephen Jackson, Jason Richardson, El Harrington, Matt Baines, and a group of tough guys with excessive adrenaline.
Since then, the Golden State Gang had killed and robbed people. The proverb of " willing to be cut into pieces and dare to pull the emperor down " was widely circulated in the Alliance.
After six games, the Mavericks became the third team in history to be blacklisted. It was also the most iconic team with the strongest sense of existence. It was so classic that after the opening of the Warriors 'new arena in 2021, they still had to bring Nowitzki's fist print to the new arena.
Dirk Nowitzki also became the first man in history to wear a suit to receive the MVP trophy of the regular season. At the same time, he also became a softie in the league who was even softer than Gasol.
Old Driver, who only got 19.7 points per game in six games and had a low shooting percentage of 38.3%, was ridiculed as the worst MVP in the history of the regular season.
Moreover, the warrior who performed the miracle of Black Eight was the opponent chosen by the Mavericks themselves. In the last game of the Warriors 'regular season, the Mavericks' loss allowed the Warriors to win 42 games, barely keeping their ticket to the playoffs.
So what was this?
Who did I kill? Who killed me?
If you add in the feud between the Warriors 'head coach, Nelson Sr., and the Mavericks…
Ah, this, the effects of the program were full.
In the following season, they naturally couldn't recover and were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
In Yun Lie's previous life, which was the 09- 10 season, the Mavericks rose again in the regular season. They were second only to the defending champion, the Los Angeles Clippers, in the Western Conference. Their overall record was second in the league to enter the playoffs.
This time, it was the high-spirited Nowitzki who said to the media in an interview," We'll play against the Los Angeles Clippers in the Western Conference finals, and then we'll be easily defeated by the Spurs 4-2 in the first round... and complete the Spurs 'Black Seven miracle. At this point, the lie that the calf was weak seemed to have become a fact. Being blackened by Black Eight once was a matter of luck, but adding Black Seven again was intriguing. And Nowitzki's title as a wimp seemed to be confirmed. That year, every famous player wanted to slam dunk on Nowitzki's head.
However, what was even more dramatic was that in just one season, in the 2010- 2011 season, the Mavericks, who were still the biggest pseudo-strong team in history, miraculously defeated the Blazers in a row. The Clippers and Thunder once again entered the finals. In the situation where the second and third masters of the team could not play, and he was still sick, he single-handedly defeated the three giants of the Heat and finally won the championship.
This championship made James, Wade, and Bosh a joke.
It was 2012, and the last scene of this miracle team was played out. With everyone optimistic about the Mavericks, the team owner, Mark Wanwan, almost sold everyone in the championship lineup and officially announced that the Mavericks were going to rebuild. After the reconstruction, the name of the calf in the country gradually became a lone ranger, and the calf slowly became a fish belly. Until he chose his new core player, Lukadoncic, in the 2018 draft.
Yun Lie could only express his admiration for the magnificent history of the Mavericks.
Yun Lie was still very impressed with Nowitzki, so he took the initiative to request to face Nowitzki in this match. The best way to face a player he liked was to defeat him personally.
Therefore, when Yun Lie saw Nowitzki, he immediately went up to him and told him,"Hey! Dirk, I'll be your match tonight.”
Dirk was dumbfounded. Yun Lie liked to play inside, no, he was famous in the league for especially liking to play inside. Thinking about the big men who had played against Yun Lie before, Dirk was a little flustered.
Yun Lie was 2.05 meters tall. Coupled with his jumping ability, he was not at a disadvantage against the 2.13-meter Nowitzki. Similar to Nowitzki, Yun Lie was not only skilled in the paint, but he also had good shooting skills. In addition, Yun Lie liked to play face-to-face, so he was suitable to play against Nowitzki. It could be said that Yun Lie was a defensive and physical version of Nowitzki.
However, Yun Lie was far from reaching Nowitzki's level in shooting. To a certain extent, Dirk changed the game and the definition of the power forward position. He made the space type fourth position reveal its charm. The way he played changed the game of basketball. In the future, the seven-foot tall big man would imitate his way of playing. In the future, David Davis, Porzingis, and Carl Anthony Towns would all be the fourth-position players with precise shooting skills.
Nowitzki was flexible, could dribble, and his range covered the entire three-point line. However, his shortcomings on the defensive end were also obvious. His rebounding ability and resistance ability were somewhat inadequate.
Thus, Yun Lie was the best choice to play against Nowitzki. He was also flexible, had the best ball control in the league, and had a good range. However, his rebounding and resistance abilities were much better than Nowitzki's.
