Guy caught Durant, which obviously made no one realize what happened. For a player with Durant's height and wingspan, it is very difficult to block him, let alone catch him.

In fact, Durant had no chance at all just now. He just wanted to use his height and wingspan to beat Gay. Unexpectedly, the No. 22 small forward who played for many teams did not accept this trick.

It's hard to imagine that Rudy Gay, who is almost 32 years old, can still deliver such a beast-level performance. Although everyone else was stunned, Guy himself was extremely calm. Seeing that Yiyang and other teammates failed to advance in time, he quickly ran forward with the ball.

Only after Guy had taken a step or two did everyone react and take action.

Iguodala tried hard to block Gay. He did prevent Gay from scoring directly, but he was still called for a foul.

Gay stood at the free throw line, and fans throughout the American Airlines Center cheered for him. At that moment, Guy even felt a little ironic. During his years as a core player, he was only reviled by fans. But now he has become a role player and has become the darling of the fans.

But it doesn't matter anymore, the championship, that's why he joined the Mavericks. Maybe I really don't have the destiny to be a core player, but there is nothing wrong with contributing my strength as a role player for the championship.

The 32-year-old Rudy Gay naturally thinks about things completely different from the 22-year-old Gay.

Gay made two solid free throws, which also meant that the Dallas Mavericks successfully equalized the score before the end of the half! The 11-point difference did not crush the Mavericks. They definitely have the ability to wrestle with the Warriors this season!

Afterwards, Steve Kerr finally called a halt to the game, and he paid the price for his blind confidence. The Warriors lost two of their first three games because everyone from the coach to the players was too lax. But the 11-0 run by the Mavericks just now should be enough to make them nervous again.

"Well done, Rudy, hold on, let's finish this quarter." After the game, Carlisle happily patted Guy on the shoulder. Guy nodded silently and sat down on the bench sleepily.

Although he can no longer dominate the game, although people have long forgotten the name Rudy Gay. But it feels good to be able to contribute to the team.

After returning from the timeout, the Warriors recovered and slightly stabilized the situation. This "galactic battleship" is still very powerful once it seriously defends against enemies.

In this way, after half-time, the two sides were still tied. 58 to 58, the Warriors and the Mavericks are neck and neck. Just as Mike Breen expected, this important game, broadcast live across the United States, will definitely be played very anxiously.

In the second half of the game, Steve Kerr and Carlisle both changed their lineups many times, but neither could beat the other to death. Until the decisive moment in the last eight minutes of the fourth quarter, Cole once again launched an enhanced version of the Death Five with Durant, and Carlisle once again sent a large and four small lineup to fight against it.

Rudy Gay once again shouldered the heavy responsibility. Although Durant could still score, the Warriors' offense just couldn't flow smoothly. And Yiyang couldn't take away the game in one wave, because the Warriors' defense also made the Mavericks very uncomfortable.

At the critical moment, it's still Rudy Gay. Of course, he can't take over the game completely, but he can use some details to change the situation.

In the last 1 minute and 28 seconds of the game, the Mavericks led by two points, and Curry's three-pointer was severely interfered and knocked out of the frame. At this time, Green roughly pushed Gobert away. Although there was a suspicion of foul play, it escaped the referee's eyes.

Durant and Green guarded the basket, waiting for the basketball to fall. With Gobert losing his position, Green and Durant could easily tip in the basket.

Although Gay was stuck behind Durant,

But he didn't give up the fight. He may not be able to grab the basketball himself, but he can give his teammates a chance to grab the basketball.

So, Gay desperately pushed Durant toward the basket. In this case, Durant, who was directly under the basket, couldn't touch the basketball at all. Now, Gay can only pray that someone else can get the rebound before Green does.

At this moment, Gordon Hayward rushed in and washed away the rebound. Rudy Gay's efforts were not in vain, he fought for opportunities and space for his teammates!

"Gordon, fortunately he is active enough! The Mavericks protected the rebound and they had a chance to expand the score!" Mike Breen shouted and cheered for Hayward.

That's what role players are like, maybe others can't see your efforts at all. But without them, a team cannot be successful. These details are exactly the key to success!

Yiyang's quick counterattack widened the point difference to 4 points, leading by 4 points at the critical moment. The Mavericks were already very proactive.

"Well done Rudy, let's grit our teeth and hold on for a while, the victory will be ours!" Yiyang retreated to his own half and exchanged a few words with Guy briefly, which surprised Guy a little.

Others may not be able to see Guy's efforts, but Yiyang can. He is definitely an "excellent sidekick". Appropriate encouragement will make guys like Guy work harder.

Do you know why Guy can't be a leader? Because he doesn't think about these things at all, he only knows how to beat himself, thinking that scoring gorgeous statistics can help the team win. In fact, being a leader is not that easy.

After that, the two sides continued to compete anxiously. The Warriors had nothing to do with the Mavericks' cutting-edge offense, and the Mavericks couldn't completely limit the terrifying firepower of the "Galaxy Battleship." But the tight score did no good to the Warriors. Now it is the last few dozen seconds of the fourth quarter. There is no way to get past these 4 points. The Warriors have no chance to chase in the fifth quarter!

8 seconds before the end of the game, Durant made a long three-pointer. But Gay blocked it in time, seriously interfering with KD's shooting, causing him to miss the buzzer-beater.

Afterwards, Yiyang personally grabbed the rebound and started a fast break. Under the rough pursuit of the Warriors players, Yiyang still ran the ball into the frame even though he was knocked off balance. In the last 4 seconds, In time, the point difference was expanded to 4 points again.

Cole fell to the bench, knowing very well that the Warriors had a narrow escape.

The 4-point difference was maintained until the end. At the end of the game, every fan in the American Airlines Center stood up with their hands raised and shouted at the top of their lungs. They defeated the defending champions, they defeated the incredible "Galactica". Facts have proved that they have the ability to regain the O'Brien Cup!

The fans were going crazy and the Mavericks players were equally excited. The players on the bench and the players on the court rushed into the court at the same time, hugging Yiyang in the middle. With 32 points, 11 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals, Yiyang's performance is undoubtedly the biggest reason why the Mavericks won the game today.

But Gay, who helped the team protect the rebound at the last moment and provided key defense in the last 8 seconds for Durant to beat, stood on the outside of the crowd, alone with his hands on his hips, slightly raised corners of his mouth, enjoying the victory. Bring yourself happiness.

Victory, how long has it been since you experienced this word? From the Grizzlies to the Raptors, and from the Raptors to the Kings, Gay has experienced almost all failures. Especially during those years in Toronto and Sacramento, Gay felt like he was almost numb from losing.

But now, in the American Airlines Center Arena, in the legendary Mavericks team, Gay finally tasted the taste of victory again. It tastes just like when he was 13 years old playing in the Baltimore Youth League, sweet and wonderful! He found that at the age of 32, he was still full of desire to win.

Just like what he said in an interview with the Chinese reporter before the game, after completing the signing with the Mavericks, the dark clouds hanging over his head dissipated. In such a group, Guy felt he had a chance to be reborn.

At this moment, Yiyang broke away from the crowd and walked to Guy.

"Good defense on the last ball, man!" Guy and Yiyang hugged each other.

"That risk-taking shot must be among the top five, haha!" Dirk touched Guy's head excitedly.

"Although your attempt to dunk Green's ball today failed, you definitely scared the bastard to piss. Well done!" Carter and Guy high-fived...

Afterwards, almost every teammate came over to interact with Guy. He was a little surprised. He was just a role player, doing what he could. But I didn't expect that my teammates would not forget my performance!

What a feeling! ? He suddenly felt very comfortable. He suddenly felt that fighting for the Dallas Mavericks was an extremely glorious and happy thing.

Gay had a smile on his face as he walked into the tunnel arm-in-arm with his teammates. At that moment, he seemed to understand why the Mavericks were successful. After traveling to four teams, only the Mavericks' locker room atmosphere is unparalleled... (No. 1 Guard)
