I Am An NBA Goalkeeper

Chapter 27: Preseason

October 8th, Wednesday.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Dachun came to the arena with his newly bought notebook and his luggage on his back. The team bus was already waiting at the entrance of the arena. There were already many players on the bus.

Because the preseason game is about to begin tonight, the Dallas Mavericks will play away against the Washington Wizards at 08:30 in the evening. They will gather at the team’s gate at ten o’clock this morning and head to the airport for a flight to Washington.

Green suggested that Wang Dachun's notebook should be bought. He said that it would be very boring on the plane. He always needs something to pass the time. There is a notebook for playing games and listening to music to relax.

Originally, Wang Dachun wanted to buy a second-hand general and just use it. He didn't have a big demand for notebooks. Just like Green said, just pass the time.

So I asked Zhang Yanan. He knew that there must be second-hand computers at Zhang Yanan's school.

Zhang Yanan just returned from China last week. According to her, he went home to persuade his family to stay at school and continue to complete the tasks she had not completed. For the time being, he did not want to return to China to inherit the family's business.

After Zhang Yanan knew Wang Dachun's idea of ​​buying a second-hand copy, he gave him a lesson.

"I said you are an NBA player anyway. As for you to live so tightly? How much can a computer cost you, and you have to go shopping for a second-hand one. You don't shame you first? You? You must know that you now represent not only yourself, but also the country."

If Zhang Yanan has been tempted to lose his temper, then buy a new one! I just wanted to buy a cheap and usable new laptop, but Zhang Yanan took him directly to buy an ultra-thin laptop that Dell just released this year, which cost him more than $3,000.

Wang Dachun feels so distressed, what kind of ultra-thin does he want! I'm afraid that when I type on the keyboard, I have more strength and will directly pierce the keyboard, but I can't refuse it after I bought it.

When he arrived at the airport to register, Wang Dachun knew that his team’s plane was bought by the owner, Cuban, for the team.

Of the 30 teams in the NBA, only two or three have their own airplanes. The other teams are basically airplanes contracted by airlines.

This made Wang Dachun sighed, it's great to have money. The owner of his own team is willing to buy planes for the players. It takes a long time to buy a notebook when I participate, and the gap is too big.

After boarding the plane, Wang Dachun turned around in the plane, lamenting the luxury of the plane. After the plane took off, he found a place to sit down and turned on the computer and began to practice his "One Finger Zen".

The plane arrived in Washington after three hours, after a short rest and adjustment in the hotel where he was staying.

The players came to the Verizon Center Arena to adapt to the venue.

The preseason is actually for the relationship between new team players and old players and drill tactics, so the main main players will not play too much time, generally between 10 and 20 minutes.

The rest of the time is basically made up of substitute players and marginal players taking turns to play, and the preseason is generally completed throughout October, and it should be about eight games.

Gilbert Arenas, the head of the Washington Wizards. He injured his left knee during training on September 18 last month, so he was not on the roster today.

The starting lineup for the Washington Wizards today is.

Point guard, Mike James, 188 cm.

Shooting guard, Caron Butler, 201 cm.

Small forward, Antoine Jamison, 203 cm

Power forward, Dominic McGuire, 206 cm

Center, Anto Rebrazzi, 211 cm.

The Dallas Mavericks' starting lineup today is.

Point guard: Jason Kidd

Shooting guard: Antoine White

Small forward: Josh Howard

Power forward: Dirk Nowitzki

Center: Eric Dampier

The game started at 8:30 in the evening, and the difference in lineup between the two teams was actually quite large. From the very beginning, the Wizards were suppressed.

Kidd had six assists before the end of the first quarter, and the Wizards power forward couldn't prevent Nowitzki at all. At the end of the first quarter, the scores of both sides.

At 16:30, the Mavericks led by 14 points.

The second quarter begins. The two sides put in a substitute

Wizards bench lineup.

Point guard, Juan Dixon, 188 cm.

Shooting guard, Deshaun Stevenson, 196 cm

Small forward, Nick Young, 201 cm.

Power forward, Darius Sangella, 206 cm.

Center, JaVale McGee, 213 cm.

The Mavericks reserve lineup.

Point guard, Jose Barea, 183 cm.

Shooting guard, Jason Terry, 188 cm.

Small forward, Gerald Green, 201 cm.

Power forward, Braden Bass, 203 cm

Center, Desaican Diop, 213 cm.

Wang Dachun has yet to get a chance to play. From the team's center position, he is considered the Mavericks' third reserve center. There is also Hollins in front of Wang Dachun.

If the difference between the two sides is not relatively large, the Mavericks have an absolute advantage, and Wang Dachun's chance of playing is not great.

Although the preseason is a training time, everyone has the opportunity to play, but as head coach Carlisle who has just joined the Mavericks this year, he still hopes to get a good start.

From the standpoint of the heights of both sides, the Wizards' bench lineup has a slight advantage, but it still can't hold back Jason Terry's lead to the Mavericks' bench, which was bombarded at the end of the first half.

The score was 40:65, and the Mavericks led by 25 points.

The second half started for a while and the main team played less than half a quarter. The Wizards gave up the game when they saw no hope of victory and all replaced them on the bench. The Mavericks did not allow the main team to continue playing and replaced it.

But Wang Dachun still did not play, and the Mavericks center was Horns.

Wang Dachun is also very greedy from the field, but there is no way. At present, judging from the situation of the team. The coach doesn't trust himself much. It may be slightly more difficult to get a chance to play.

It was not until the fourth quarter that the Mavericks had an absolute advantage. Only Wang Dachun had not played as a substitute for the entire team, and Claire planned to send Wang Dachun on the court to get familiar with the game.

Wang Dachun finally appeared in the 5th minute of the fourth quarter. Confronting him is Jamal McGee.

McGee is also this year’s rookie, but the pick is much higher than Wang Dachun. McGee was selected by the Wizards with the 18th overall pick in the first round. Wang Dachun took a look at McGee’s stats to see how he differs from him in stats. .

In fact, he is not too different from himself. He is superior in strength and speed, so it shouldn't be a big problem for him.

When Wang Dachun was on the court, the Wizards attacked. Wang Dachun's defensive position defended McGee. Only after close range did Wang Dachun realize that this guy looks like a monkey? Doesn't seem to be complete?

Now the score between the two sides is relatively high, only a few minutes before the end of the game, the players on both sides began to wave, there are open shots, McGee and Wang Dachun are competing for rebounds under the basket.

McGee played pretty well today. Although the team is behind by a large margin, he did a good job defensively. Today he also sent three blocks. But the Mavericks center who just came up looks similar to his own size. Can't squeeze him when he is stuck.

And when he was in a good position, he almost got rebounds from this guy several times, and this guy was much faster than himself, and when he retired, he couldn't catch up with him at all.

Wang Dachun also finally knows where he is better than himself in this high position. Although the center facing him looks a bit like a monkey, he is really better than himself in the bounce position, if not for his own strength and arm. With some advantages in the show, it is difficult to get a rebound from him.

The game ended in Wang Dachun and McGee fighting for rebounds. The final score was 82:108. The Mavericks won. In the first game of the pre-spring game, Wang University only grabbed 3 rebounds in 6 minutes, and all other data were 0.
