东契奇19+6+9，亚历山大29+9+9，雷霆大胜独行侠

The first pair of the fifth in the regular season objectively confirms that there is a gap in the strength of the two teams, the Thunder has a new three-less collective play, and the Mavericks only have Doncic and Irving dual cores, which is reflected in the court:

Alexander makes a foul and makes a free throw

At the beginning of the game, Jay Wei had no hands, but they had SGA, one of the league's new superstars, and throughout the first half of the game, Alexander was 5-of-10, 9-of-11 free throws in a row, and scored 19 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, and the team was able to gradually lay the cornerstone of the advantage.

Alexander scored a second three-pointer

And in the second half, when Alexander was able to hit two three-pointers in a row, he was already in no solution mode. The quasi-triple-double output of the whole game beat Doncic, and the team won the first cornerstone.

Holmgren guards the basket

Although Holmgren is only a three-man player, his physical talent is too rebellious, with long arms and movement flexibility, he can not only guard the paint area, but also switch to the three-point line at any time, the Thunder can contain the cornerstone of the Mavericks' offense, and what is even more gratifying:

Holmgren 3-pointer

Not only can he eat bread under the basket, but he can also hold the ball and solve it alone, especially with one more three-point specialty than Lively and Gafford, making the Mavericks defenseless. The game had 19 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 3 blocks, and the team was the cornerstone of the team's victory.

Jiewei scored 10 points in a row

In the first three quarters of the game, Jayway was 2 of 11 and 0 of 3 three-pointers, and only 8 points were seriously abnormal, but in the final quarter, when Irving was carrying the Mavericks to close to the score, he first made a whistle layup, and then two three-pointers, as we saw the picture, broke through the heavy dunk, one person scored 10 points in a row and rebounded strongly, and finally perfectly fulfilled the value of the second leader, directly locking the victory for the team.

As above, in addition to the three young combined for 66 points, 21 rebounds and 15 assists, Coach Mark also had a subtle adjustment, one of the important details of the team's victory, abandoning Giddey.

The Mavericks' defensive strategy

The Mavericks have always been able to bite the point difference, and once chased to 65-66 in the third quarter with only one point difference, as we saw in the picture, when Giddey was on the court, Kidd ordered the whole team to shrink the defense, and even Doncic could completely empty Giddey to help defense, make up baskets and even pinch shots, after all, he has no three-point ability, which is reflected in the data: Giddey 2 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and the plus/minus value of the game is actually -7, in response to this, Mark made adjustments:

1. Giddey played 17 minutes and didn't give the Mavericks a chance to defend.

2. In addition to Isaiaccio, Mark also boldly enabled Wiggins and Wallace, with the effect:

Wiggins 3-pointer

It's no surprise that Seacho contributed 6 points on 2-of-3 from three-point range as a top shooter, but Wiggins contributed 16 points on 3-of-4 three-pointers, plus 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, with a plus/minus of +18 in the game, tied for second on the team.

Wallace three points

In addition to chasing Irving as much as possible, Wallace also contributed 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal with a 2-of-4 three-point shooting, and the plus/minus was as high as +13.

The two of them combined for 5 of 8 three-pointers not only contributed 23 points, but also made the Thunder no longer have offensive loopholes, and the Mavericks were unable to perform contraction defense and pinching one of the important factors, on the other hand, the Mavericks?

Green hit a three-pointer instantly

Even though Josh Green scored two three-pointers in the opening game, the Thunder insisted on letting him shoot three-pointers, and partly sandwiched the Eastern European combination, and the final outcome: Green contributed 11 points on 3-of-8 three-pointers, but the plus/minus of the court was -20, so that Kidd had to abandon it in the decisive moment.

From the actual combat effect to the comparison of the endings of the two teams, the answer that can be obtained, behind the perfect play of the three young people, Coach Mark abandoned Jiki to achieve miraculous results; Conversely, with Kleber out injured, Hardaway still in the recovery phase, and Kidd with no one available.
