Chapter 16
Chapter 16 Spring brother debut
The summer league scene, because there was no Mavericks game on the first day. Their match is scheduled for the second day. That is today, they are playing against the San Antonio Spurs.
The Spurs’ starting lineup today is:
Point guard, Blake Achern, is 188 cm tall.
The shooting guard, Desmond Farmar, is 196 cm tall.
The small forward, Marcus Williams, is 201 cm tall.
The power forward, Popos Monsa Bangsu, is 206 cm tall.
Center. Anthony Tolliver, 203 cm tall.
Baria said next to Wang Dachun:
“The Spurs are still the same this year!
Wang Dachun asked:
“how?”
“The Spurs who were sent out this year are marginal and undrafted. There is also a rookie of the same class this year. None of the genuine players have come!
“Then isn’t it a good thing, isn’t it easier for us to beat them?”
“Although the words are correct, it is right to win such a team. If you lose, it will be embarrassing.”
Wang Dachun thinks about it too.
The lineup sent by the Dallas Mavericks today is much more luxurious than the Spurs.
Point guard, Jose Barea, is 183 cm tall.
Shooting guard, Dwayne Mitchell, is 196 cm tall.
The small forward, Gerald Green, is 201 cm tall.
Power forward, Braden Bass, 203 cm tall
The center, Ryan Hollins, is 213 cm tall.
This lineup can be said to be the Mavericks’ main backup lineup, which is quite luxurious.
The game officially started after the players from both sides played.
Wang Dachun was sitting in the rest area, preparing to watch the game carefully. He felt that he could only watch the game seriously, and was not very looking forward to playing.
The game just started:
The Mavericks Barria took possession of the ball and transported it to the frontcourt to make a gesture call tactic. Coach Solano had seen the table against the Spurs before and felt that winning was not a big problem, so today the players are mainly to be familiar with the tactics he just developed.
Baria also strictly implemented the coaching arrangements, first let center Hollins rise to the high position. Take advantage of the opposing point guard’s defense and go straight to the basket.
The opposing power forward was ready to assist in the defense, Baria crossed the ball diagonally to Buzz, and the opposing center returned to the defense at the same time. Green reversed the corner to open up space. Bass passed the ball to Hollins who was open, and the latter dunked successfully.
2: 0
The Mavericks scored the first point,
Sorano nodded happily when he saw that the players performed their tactics perfectly. Looking back at Wang Dachun.
This guy’s current understanding of tactics is still relatively poor, if he is asked to do pick-and-rolls with the same tactics. He could easily block his players. It can be said that the effect is extremely poor.
Sono wanted to abandon Wang Dachun, but the team only had two centers. Hollins could not run the whole game, and the general manager of the team called him and said that he hoped Wang Dachun could adapt to the NBA game in the summer league as soon as possible. strength.
The general manager of the team has spoken, and it is even more unlikely that he will not use Wang Dachun.
The Mavericks have been playing with the Spurs on the court, and the score has been leading by about ten. Especially at the end of the first quarter for Gerald Green, a flat dunk detonated the audience.
The scores of both sides at the end of the first quarter:
19:30
The Mavericks lead by 11 points.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the two sides replaced the bench, Wang Dachun did not play, but let the 206 cm power forward Williams replace the center position first.
But unexpectedly, under the leadership of George Hill, the opponent’s substitute played a nine-to-zero climax.
George Hill, like Wang Dachun, is this year’s rookie, and he is also the only rookie in the Spurs Summer League team this year.
The Spurs have three draft picks this year, and George Hill is the 26th overall pick. At the same time, he also won the 45th overall pick of Dragic in the second round, but he was just traded to the Suns, and there was James Gist who was 57th in the second round, but the Spurs didn’t seem to have him come to the summer league.
Today’s George Hill is in a very good mood. In yesterday’s game, he met oj Mayo for this year’s flower show. Under his defense, the opposing team made five of 17 shots.
He scored 17 points and 8 rebounds. Because of yesterday’s performance, the coach asked him to lead the bench today and have unlimited firepower.
Solano found the bench lineup. Some could not withstand the Spurs’ scoring tide, and immediately made adjustments to allow Hollins to play again to strengthen the inside defense.
At the same time, let Gerald Green go to the guard position to defend George Hill. George Hill is only 188 cm tall. But the speed is very fast, and there is a good three-pointer at the same time.
The Mavericks lost a three-pointer without the ball in the pick and roll of their teammates, and the Mavericks couldn’t help it, while the Spurs center took Hollins around the court. Hollins can’t keep up with his physical strength. After all, he just played a full quarter and had less than half a break in the second quarter and then went on the court and chased the opponent all the time.
Solano also saw that Hollins couldn’t keep up with his physical strength, and now that the opponent’s punching board is very fierce, it seems that he can only send Wang Dachun on the field.
He gave Wang Dachun a gesture, meaning he was ready to play. At this time, Wang Dachun was still watching the game attentively, and did not notice the coach let him play. If not for the next teammate to remind him, he still didn’t know the coach let him play.
He hurriedly dragged off the training suit. Waiting in the substitution zone, he was about to play, he was a little excited, the coach told him just now. He doesn’t need to go up and do other work, as long as he has a good grasp of the basket and rebounds. When the ball is dead, Wang Dachun will be on the court.
The score at this time.
46:43
The Mavericks trailed by three points, one minute and 40 seconds from the end of the second quarter.
After going on the court, he was a little stiff. After all, it was the first regular game. It felt completely different from training in the team. Now he only remembers one point in his mind to get rebounds.
He came to the high pick-and-roll according to the tactics, but the quality of the effect was very poor. The first time the tactics were not completed, Barea had no choice but to shoot a three-pointer from the outside and missed the ball. The Spurs center was stuck in a good position. Keeping Wang Dachun behind and preparing to take off the rebound, he thinks his position is very good.
Judging from the position of the basketball, the ball must be his own. When he stretched out his hands to take off the basketball, a pair of big hands suddenly appeared above his head and took the basketball directly.
The Spurs center found out that Wang Dachun had grabbed the rebound, and then quickly passed the ball back to Barea.
Barria froze for a while, watching the defensive player still haven’t recovered, he shot again, but still didn’t make it.
The Spurs center saw that this time the basketball was in the opposite direction of the Mavericks center, and this board must be his own.
When he stared at the basketball and jumped up and was about to touch the basketball, a big hand grabbed the basketball again.
How angry the Spurs center is! Who is that? Isn’t there no one around? This rebound should be his own, and it is Wang Dachun. He threw the ball to Barea.
Barea is depressed, although we have a good relationship, but you can’t find me to force myself! Didn’t you see that there are defensive players in front of me? The stuffed people are so uncomfortable, they almost missed the ball.
When Barea protects the ball, the opposing players have basically all been seated. Only to reorganize the offense, Wang Dachun came to the high pick and roll again, but still did not block!
The Mavericks all know that at present Wang Dachun is only good at rebounding, but he has no offensive means.
Therefore, even if Wang Dachun has reached those good positions, he has not passed on his sense of the ball.
But nobody knows about the Spurs. Judging from just grabbing rebounds, this rookie poses a greater threat to the inside. In addition to the center guarding Wang Dachun, the power forward is also ready to help defend.
Barea saw this and broke through to the penalty area with a fake shot. The Spurs quickly contracted Wang Dachun and tried to steal the ball. This led to an open position for Bath, and Barea passed the ball directly to Bath for a dunk.
