At present, Dampier will definitely not be stupid enough to think that he is still the second center in the league, and what he said with Li Tuanjie is a joke.

That means like, Lao Tzu doesn't care, no matter what the outside says, Lao Tzu is the second center in the league......

……

After Li Tuanjie joined the Mavericks, head coach Johnson must also find a suitable team positioning for newcomer Li Tuanjie.

In what position? How long does it last? It's up to head coach Johnson to decide.

Although it is a training camp, it is the off-season after all, the players have not lost their hearts to the point of training all day, the players are also people, they have played a whole season of games, both physically and mentally, they are tired, and they definitely need to rest.

Therefore, the training camp is scheduled for two to five o'clock in the afternoon, three times a week!

This kind of training intensity, firstly, will not make the players too tired, so that they can recharge and wait for the coming of the new season, and secondly, they can maintain the competitive state of the players...... After an offseason, many NBA players often lose a lot of weight due to lack of exercise and excessive intake of external heat.

……

This time the training camp was first done for half an hour of free warm-up training, and after the warm-up, it was generally time to play a 5v5 game within the team.

But this time, the Mavericks only had nine players participating in the training camp, and the number was not enough to play the whole game, so they had to retreat to play a half-time 3v3 game.

The nine players were divided into three groups and played a half-time 3v3 ring match.

Speaking of which, the 3v3 ring match is actually more fun than the full team training match, and the players are very satisfied with this arrangement.

Next, the grouping has become a problem again, like Nowitzki, the leader of the team, is very strong, whoever is in a group with him will definitely have a better chance of winning, so everyone wants to be in a group with Nowitzki......

In the end, it was Nowitzki who spoke, formed a circle, turned the ball into groups, rotated the basketball, and whoever the inflatable hole was aimed at, he was out of the line.

In the end, Lee Tuanjie and Dampier were placed in a group, along with veteran defender Anthony Johnson.

Nowitzki, on the other hand, was teamed up with Jet Jason Terry and center Diop.

The third group is Josh Howard, Devin George and Devin Harris......

"It's not fair, I strongly ask for a change of group, our group of old old, small and small, how to fight?!" Dampier looked at this group, and immediately became unhappy, it was obvious that among the three groups, their group was the weakest......

Dampier entered the NBA in '96 and is now almost thirty-two years old, Anthony Johnson is a rookie in '97 and is also in his thirties, and Lee has not yet ...... NBA experience

The old and weak are talking about such a combination of them......

Li Tuanjie is also speechless, this group is too unfavorable for them, Nowitzki's group is obviously too strong, and the weakest center Diop is now about to replace Dampier in the position of starting center, not to mention the other two, one is the team's leading man, and the other is the team's stable starting point guard.

And although Josh Howard's group looks a little weaker, after all, it suffers more in terms of height, but in terms of overall strength, it is definitely much stronger than Li Tuanjie's group......

"Alright, alright, old Dampier, haven't you been saying that you're the league's No. 2 center? How did you admit it at this time? Jet Terry sneered at Dampier pointing.

Dampier pouted, "Okay, then let's fight like this, although I am the second center in the league, but after all, I am old, and there is a rookie like Li Tuanjie, you must be merciful for a while, you must not leave a psychological shadow on the rookie, we have to cultivate confidence in him now......"

……

Josh Howard and Nowitzki played first, and Lee united their group to be the queen, and whoever hit 10 goals first in the two groups on the court won the game, and the loser was replaced......

……

Li Tuanjie stood on the sidelines and watched the game on the field with interest!

These players on the court are the top professional basketball players in the world, and the average fan will never have the opportunity to see these players play 3v3 basketball in their lifetime.

In addition to watching the excitement, Li Tuanjie also wanted to learn Novitzki's offensive methods.

There is no doubt that Nowitzki is the benchmark for all projection power forwards, and although Li Tuanjie said that his goal is to be an all-round power forward, his current physical fitness is destined for him to be a projection power forward like Nowitzki.

"Start with a projection power forward, and then transform into an all-round power forward if you have the opportunity in the future!" Li Tuanjie thought silently in his heart.

……

When the game started, Josh Howard kicked off first.

Josh Howard, from Wake Forest University, as an alumnus of Dun Dumb, his personality is also relatively low-key, as if all the people in the league who are related to Deng Dumb can not be high-profile......

His draft pick is not high, the 29th pick in the first round, and he almost fell to the second round, but with his own efforts, he has now become a stable starting small forward for the Mavericks, and his status in the Mavericks lineup is actually higher than Jet Terry, second only to the leading boss Nowitzki!

Even if the trajectory of history hadn't changed, Josh Howard would have been named an NBA All-Star this season!

Such a player is definitely an inspirational typical, generally speaking, there must be some thunderous nicknames, even if the fans can't afford it, it's understandable to give themselves a nickname, but the low-key Josh Howard has no nickname......

Well, actually, it's not appropriate to say that there is no nickname, Josh Howard has a nickname in his career, that is, he and Marquis Daniels, another player of the Mavericks, are known as the "Dallas Double Ugly......

As soon as the door to player trade opened this season, Daniels was sent away by the Mavericks, and only Josh Howard was left with the double ugly Dellas......

……

After kick-off, Josh Howard passed the ball to defender Devin Harris.

The height difference between the two sides is really too big, and if you shoot head-on, you will definitely be greatly disturbed, and if the projection misses, Diop, the center, definitely has a great chance to grab the rebound.

So, the Josh Howard trio decided to use their speed to attack the interior so that they might still have some hope of winning.

After Devin Harris took possession of the ball, Jet Terry immediately posted it, Terry's offense is excellent, especially the three-point shot, his name can be found in many three-point shooting records, but the defense can only be considered average......
