Chapter 203: Debut in Brooklyn
On the media news side, there has been more commentary on the Nets. There are also discussions on www.biquge.info the Internet that Chen has been drastically reduced in salary, and this is a guaranteed contract. Neither side of the argument is unforgiving. Chen only took a brief look at these topics about him, and he didn't care about them now.
The Dallas Mavericks are now training at Barclays Center and will be playing them in the evening! What makes it difficult for Chen is that Bojan and Graves are no longer on the team. Although the Mavericks are not in a good ranking right now, they have won the last 3 games!
Under the operation of the new season, the Mavericks seem to be coming out of the quagmire of season scrapping!
This season, Cuban still signed a one-year, $10 million guaranteed contract with the German tank! Nowitzki didn't ask for anything when it came to releasing the team's salary, and the two seemed to be on good terms! Nowitzki's contribution to the Mavericks over the years is also visible to everyone.
Nowitzki, a 40-year-old veteran last season, was still able to contribute 14.3 points, 6 rebounds and 1.5 assists! He is still a key figure on the offensive end of Dallas, a strong guarantee on the defensive end!
Nowitzki's tenacity on the court and his excellent offense, rebounding and defensive abilities have given him a solid place in the league. His abilities are great! With Kobe, Duncan, LeBron, and Ray Allen, they can still have an effective confrontation on the court! The three points at the crucial moment are also very thirst-quenching!
After Deron Williams was recommended to Cleveland through Korver last month after the Mavericks announced his cut, the Cavaliers are currently considering how much to sign him! If Deron joins the Cavaliers, it's hard to say how far they will go this season!
The Mavericks freed up his salary to sign Narrens Noel to the 76ers for a big deal! 8.9 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. Brings defensive intensity to Dallas! He is mainly responsible for the position of substitute center forward here.
This player is not very suitable for the forward line because he is really not very good in attack. However, his strong defense, excellent stealing ability and blocks are what the Mavericks are looking for! His defensive ability is ranked high in the league!
It would be wise to make such a decision now that the Mavericks have more guards. DeLong's continued presence in the team is just one more defender. His ability is good, with 13.1 points, 2.6 rebounds and 6.9 assists for the Mavericks, but Cuban has made a trade-off between the team's defensive ability and good guards.
On the inside, it's okay to leave the defender opportunity to the youngsters.
......
"Hello, Coach Chen! It's an honor to join Brooklyn! Nicholson said with a light in his eyes.
"Hello and welcome to the Nets." Chen was taken aback by the sudden greeting. However, looking at the players training, only Dinwiddie is slightly better with the Pistons, and among the remaining players who have just come to the Nets recently, Quincy is from a development league team, and Nicholson and McDaniels are about to be "scrapped" by their own teams.
Thinking of this, Chen basically understands why the players who have just arrived are quite excited. To put it mildly, coming to the Nets, they may quickly turn around and become good blue-collar players in more playing time! If you don't like it, you can gild yourself here.
Both sides should know by now. The Nets, who are freeing up salaries and waiting for next season, are trying to trade players who are in good shape, and now have a first-round pick (which they recently acquired in a trade with the Wizards). Maybe you can even get a potential rookie!
At that time, the Nets may rush to the Eastern Conference Finals!
Come to Barclays Centre. The athletes started their pre-race warm-up! Today's starters for the Mavericks are Nowitzki, Barnes, Matthews, Devin and Barcia, and the Nets are Lopez, Nicholson, Badinger, Teague and Daniels.
Teague's ability since coming to the Nets has boosted the confidence of the whole team and even the management! Not only is the offense fast and effective, but the stats are also gradually coming up in terms of assists! The defensive ability has also been on display lately!
It's game on! Nowitzki got the ball first and passed it to Matthews, who hit a direct 2-pointer under Battinger's defense!
Daniels took Teague's pass and immediately ran and passed it straight past Devin when he came to defend! Faced Matthews and returned a two-pointer! What made Chen muttered in this game was that if the new players didn't play, the Nets would basically have no stable players in a certain position now.
But if you let them play, I don't know what they're going to do in the end if they don't play much for a long time. They need to adapt to coming to this team, and the Nets need to adapt to them.
Carris and Jefferson have been in contact a lot lately. These two players are almost ready to go. They didn't do very well last season though. But since last season, their physical fitness and strength have also improved a lot.
Now, if not, when they are traded to another team to play the Nets? Feel free, what level they are at now, you have to try more.
Nowitzki hit a three-point shot straight after receiving the basketball! After Teague missed a three-point shot, the German chariot grabbed a rebound again and passed the ball to Devin! The latter sped up and ran over, and Barnes, who was following behind, received a basketball dunk and scored! 7:2, the Mavericks' offense is still having some effect!
Maybe it would be stronger if DeLong was here! Nicholson attacks with the ball after receiving a pass from a patch! Take it and be cut off directly by Devon! Atkins called a timeout as Atkins hit a long-range two-pointer after Barcia caught the ball.
After coming on the court, the Nets replaced Battinger and Daniels with McDaniels and Jefferson.
The Nets look like they've changed a lot. Today, apart from López, the rest of the players are basically new. And the most consistent play is Teague. The other three players can only watch them.
Teague dribbled the ball to the halfcourt and chose to break through to the layup, and the two points were easily scored. At 9:4, Nowitzki received a pass from Matthews and directly shot three more points, and! At 12:4, Teague got the basketball and continued to score after faking to shake off Barcia when he first arrived in the frontcourt!
Devin took the ball directly to the Nets and was directly capped by McDaniels when he shot!! The scene immediately boiled! Matthews received the ball and his shot was successfully interfered with by the oncoming Nicholson! Lopez gets the rebound and passes to Jefferson! The latter quickly ran to the front!
These actions made the coach's eyes shine and the fans present were a little surprised. The presence of Nicholson and McDaniels has increased the Nets' interior defensive intensity a lot, not to mention that Lopez is still on the court.
