Although I don't know where Nash's vinegar comes from.

Nowitzki's exchange worked, and back again, Nash sent a second pass, and Nowitzki received the ball and cut into the basket to score a dunk.

At this time, the driver was not old, and the dunk was also handy.

This dunk brought back the spirit of the starting team.

Finley's breakaway, Nash's second-to-second pass, Nowitzki's shot.

The starting team's offense started to be a little unstoppable.

Although Sun Hao still plays well, the gap in strength between the two sides is there.

In the end, 12 minutes were played, and the score of the two teams was 26-18.

On the starting side, Nowitzki had 12 points, Finley had six and Nash had five assists.

On the bench team, Sun Hao scored 10 points and Xavi scored 4 points.

Although he failed to lead the team to win like in the previous round, Sun Hao played these two rounds and fully demonstrated his personal strength.

A very positive signal is that after the two teams played, Cuban pulled Sun Hao to chat on the sidelines for a while.

Although some inconsequential things were said.

But there is only one signal.

He likes Sun Hao.

At the end of the first day of training, the players returned to the locker room.

Alexander and Harvey were asked to buy burgers by the veterans.

This is the "perk" of the rookies.

Don't ask why Sun Hao didn't have to go, Nowitzki announced in public that Sun Hao was covered, and Cuban was close after training.

This rookie is "too hard backstage".

Alexander was upset, but he didn't dare to throw a tantrum with the veterans in the locker room.

Otherwise, there will be small shoes for him to wear in the future.

Easley chatting with Finley about Pierce's 11 stabbing in the summer.

The team's starting point guard for the new season is average, but his storytelling skills are quite good.

Pierce arrives at the bar at midnight with his teammate Betty and his brother Derek.

Bar fun, beat the girl up, a seemingly ordinary passion burning midnight.

However, because the girl he liked was a relative of the other group, Pierce had a conflict with them.

Anthony Heston picked up the bottle and attacked Pierce in the back of the head, and Pierce, who fell to the ground, was stabbed 11 times by Raglan with a knife, screaming and bleeding at the scene.

At that time, even Pierce himself felt that he was dead, because the medical examination report came out afterwards, and the deepest knife stabbed 28cm in the body.

And the most dangerous knife is only 2~5cm from the heart!

"Will I still be alive, doctor? Will I still be alive? ”

Pierce was angry.

"Ahem!"

Before Easley's story could be finished, he was interrupted by the coughing of old Nelson.

Sun Hao was called out by old Nelson.

Sun Hao was listening to it vigorously, although he had heard about Pierce being stabbed 11 times, it was the first time he had heard such a detailed version.

But the manager told him to go out, and he could only listen to half of the story.

It's a bit of an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

"You're ready to play in preseason."

But the first thing Nelson said was to make him forget the story that he had not yet heard.

Old Nelson actually gave him such a big candy on the first day of training!

Being ready to play means ...... He's in the rotation!

You don't know that in this era, Kobe Bryant is actually not the most unlucky, the most unlucky is Milicic, who sits on the bench.

As a result, he won the rotation spot with a single training game, and although it was only a preseason, it was really Nelson.

When Nowitzki first came to the league, defense wasn't even spicy to describe, it was really air.

And he's still very slow, sometimes Nash is fast to the front court, he's still in the backcourt.

But even so, Nelson Sr. played 47 games in a row, and 24 of them were starts.

There are really not many people who can use rookies like this, and can tolerate the shortcomings of rookies so much.

Training camp went by quickly, and the team's rotation for the new season was largely revealed.

Starting Nash, Easley, Finley, Nowitzki and Leitner.

Rotate Sun Hao, Hubert Davis, Alexander, Kukoc and Bradley "The Big Bamboo Pole".

Run-and-bomb tactics are physically demanding, and old Nelson generally uses 9~10 people to rotate.

And judging from the substitution order of the training match, Sun Hao's rotation order is higher than Alexander's.

Alexander felt like he had met a lifelong enemy.

The doors to a new season are about to open.

It was also at this time that ESPN routinely made a ranking of the strength of the teams for the new season.

This list is also quite interesting, and it is full of slots.

First, the Trail Blazers

At the top of the list is not the defending champion Lakers!

But if you know what's going on this summer, it looks ...... It's normal.

Last season's Trail Blazers, with Rasheed Wallace, Pippen, Sabonis, Steve Smith, Damon Stoudemire......

They and the Lakers played to a tiebreaker in the Western Conference Finals and lost by five points.

This season, none of these key players are missing, and they have also added Sean Kemp and Dale Davis!

Sean Kemp, the famous "Rain Man", was once among the top 10 players in the league.

Despite his declining form, he still averaged 17.8 points and 8.8 rebounds per game in Cleveland last season!

Really calculated, this former leader who led the team to overthrow the Kings, Houston, Jazz and other giants, and Jordan killed all sides in the Finals, the big forward of the Thunder League, has not yet passed his 31st birthday.

Dale Davis is a well-known trash talk king and frontcourt rebounding beast in the league, averaging 3 frontcourt rebounds per game in his career, and was selected as an Eastern Conference All-Star last season!

In addition, veterans such as the former "best second team" Rod Strickland and three-time All-Star Detreve Schramf have also joined one after another.

Do the math, 8 people on this team have All-Star resumes!

Plus the fast-paced "Muscle Stick" Bunch Wells and the powerful Greg Anthony.

The Trail Blazers have built an unprecedented, perhaps most luxurious supership in history.

Second, the Lakers

Iron battalions, flowing soldiers.

Glenn Rice, the team's third leader last season, left New York, and the Lakers look even weaker.

But as long as the OK combination is there, they are the favourites to win the championship.

And from some news in the offseason, we know that Kobe Bryant worked mid-range shooting in the summer, and his improvement will take the Lakers to the next level.

Third, the Pacers

As the defending champions of the Eastern Conference, the presence of Reggie Miller and Jalen Rose keeps them in the top three teams in the league.

However, it is worth noting that their starting center, last season's All-Star interior Davis Davis, left Portland in exchange for Jermaine O'Neal.

And after last season's Finals loss, Larry Bird stepped down as head coach and "Smiling Assassin" Isaiah Thomas stepped in.

These personnel changes may bring some unexpected changes to the team.

Fourth, the Spurs

The 35-year-old "General" David Robinson is still trying to challenge for the first championship of his career, and the fourth-year "rookie" Tim Duncan will still be his biggest help.

Fifth, the Heat

The Heat have always been the best team in the East besides the Pacers.

This past offseason, "God Operator" Riley made a move, retaining the twin stars of Mourning and Tim Hardaway, and also recruiting three-time All-Stars, Eddie Jones, a three-time defensive second team and steal king last season, and Anthony Mason Jr., a quasi-All-Star.

The run-in will be a key factor in determining their performance, and if the run-in is complete, they are more than capable of pulling the Pacers off the East.

Sixth, the Jazz

The Utah Twins, Jerry Sloan.

Seventh, the Knicks

Ewing "The Gorilla" finally has to endure the boos of the New York fans anymore, leaving the city he played for 15 years at the end of his career, which is what New Yorkers want to see most now.

Even without Ewing, they still have Alan Houston, the "mid-range king", Sprewell, and they also traded for Glen Rice, the Lakers' three-man last season.

New York fans are still convinced that they will once again recreate the glory of the '70s.

Eighth, the Mavericks

It's a bold thing to put the Mavericks in that position.

Because this team has absolutely no idea what defense is, they can have a high ceiling and a low ceiling.

But the addition of Kristen Leitner and Tony Kukoc makes them worthy of the position.

The only thing to worry about now is how Nelson Sr. handles the distribution of the ball.

Their offense is sure to be great, and perhaps we can expect a career-high assist count from teenager Steve Nash.

……

ESPN is responsible for producing the rankings, while TNT is responsible for commenting on complaints.

This time TNT threw the burden to NBA Insider, to the offseason-surging Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley.

In a small studio, a new round of tearing war began.

How many wins the Trail Blazers can play, what are the chances of the Lakers defending their title, who is the most underrated team and who is the most overrated.

"Definitely the Mavericks!"

When it comes to overestimation, Barkley answers unusually decisively.

"Man, offense wins the box office, defense wins championships, can you tell me who in the Mavericks knows defense?"

Barkley was dismissive of the Mavericks.

"If I score more points than you, I win the game, don't I?"

Kenny Smith retorted.

Barkley was stunned for a moment, and Ernie Johnson was already laughing from the sidelines.

It's really fun for these two people to bicker on a daily basis.

"That's a paradox because you can't play well all the time, but I can maintain a very consistent level of defence."

Barkley retorted as soon as he came to his senses, he could let it out, he could take it back, he was so professional.

"So who do you think should stay in this position?"

"The 76ers."

Barkley answered Smith's question almost without thinking.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Johnson and Smith burst into laughter.

Who doesn't know that you Barkley is a 76ers legend, spent 8 seasons with the 76ers in 16 seasons, or you were selected by the 76ers.

"What do you mean? What do you mean? I'm not saying that because I played with the 76ers, I'm not! You don't know how good Iverson's kid is, he just signed a huge contract with the 76ers, the 76ers...... Well, I am. ”

Barkley's humor cells kept on display, and Johnson and Smith couldn't stop laughing.

"We bet!"

Barkley started slapping the table.

But as soon as he said that, Johnson and Smith were already on the table laughing.

"Charles, you forgot about losing me a thousand dollars so quickly?"

When enough of laughing was enough, Kenny Smith looked at Barkley seriously.

"No, it was the old Nelson guy who chose it, and that guy is not a normal person."

"So you want to gamble again?"

"Of course! Two thousand dollars this time! ”

Barkley is a gambler's mentality, to win back the previous losses at one time.

"So what are we betting on this time?"

Ernie Johnson doesn't think it's a big deal to see the excitement.

"We're betting on the 'Suns,' the Asian rookie, who scored in the first game."

"How many points?"

Barkley didn't speak, and gestured with his hand to make a "0" gesture.

He wanted to bet that the 76ers would be stronger than the Mavericks, but it didn't seem like he could bet much.

It was Smith's words that reminded him that he lost to Sun Hao last time, and this time he will win back against Sun Hao.

"Agreed!"

Smith immediately agreed.

"0 points? Charles, are you serious? ”

Ernie Johnson reminded.

Anyway, Sun Hao's performance in the summer league is good, and your 0 points are a bit exaggerated.

"Of course! Lord Bar never said something that he was not sure about! ”

Ross Barkley is confident, he knows the ball.

Sun Hao's projection-type short man, a typical low-level league killer, the type of high-level league that can't score points.

There are too few changes in the way you shoot, and the speed of your shot is too slow...... These games at the NBA level will be infinitely magnified.

The most typical example is the summer league game against the Bulls, which was directly defended by Artest and lost his temper.

Moreover, the Mavericks' opener opponent was the Celtics, the Green Shirts known for their iron-blooded defense.

And, of course, most importantly, playing time.

Sun Hao is only a No. 24 show, plus he has a No. 13 show Alexander on the same team, so it is a question whether he can get a chance to play.
