Li Tuanjie was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and his eyes couldn't stop looking in the direction of head coach Johnson, he hoped that head coach Johnson could sense his eagerness to play......

It's just that head coach Johnson has been paying attention to the situation on the field and hasn't noticed Li Tuanjie at all.

On the contrary, it was the Mavericks boss Cuban who noticed Li Tuanjie's abnormal behavior, and he knew very well that Li Tuanjie was in a hurry to appear now, and Li Tuanjie only played for six minutes in this game, and the time was indeed a little less.

In addition to Li Tuanjie's good combat ability, Kuban also considered an important factor in terms of commercial value.

As Yao Ming gradually grows into a first-line star in the league, the Houston Rockets in the same state of the Mavericks are currently making a lot of money, and as a businessman, Cuban is certainly very greedy.

China's huge piece of fat has attracted the attention of the entire NBA league, and Cuban is no exception.

If Li Tuanjie can play the same level of data as Yao Ming, Cuban will definitely be able to make a very huge profit, although Cuban feels that this possibility is not very large......

However, this game is a preseason game at the moment, and Cuban feels that the final victory or defeat has no impact on the Mavericks, who had a brilliant record last season, but in the end they have not won the championship, and it is still useless, and their only goal this season is the championship!

"Johnson, aren't you going to put Dirk off for a break?" Cuban asked in a low voice beside Johnson.

Head coach Johnson was stunned, he didn't expect Cuban to ask such a question......

Cuban has rarely missed the Mavericks' home games, and his presence on the sidelines is so strong that sometimes he can even catch the referee on the court if the Mavericks are treated unfairly by the referees......

For the coach's arrangement, Cuban basically didn't ask about it, after all, although he is a fan, he is a layman in terms of tactics, and a layman leads an insider, which will definitely not work!

"BOSS, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" Head coach Johnson asked, confused.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything, I just thought, isn't this a preseason? Van Gundy is a madman, we don't need to go crazy with him, it's not a good thing to consume Dirk's physical energy like this! Kuban said slowly.

"Of course, this is just my proposal, you are the tactician of this team, I just propose, haha......"

After listening to Cuban's words, Johnson also understood what Cuban meant, it is obvious that Cuban wants to let the team's core Nowitzki rest and rest, a preseason game, can't make the team's core work so hard, in case of injury, the team's loss is simply too great!

"Well, that's what I mean, Van Gundy is crazy, let him go crazy!" Johnson immediately called a timeout!

Cuban's words are actually very reasonable, and he also knows that Cuban's suggestion is correct, so he did not continue to compare with Van Gundy, but directly called a timeout to replace the players on the field.

……

"Dirk, then you rest off the court, Li unites you to replace Dirk, we still maintain a score advantage of close to ten points, there are still four minutes left in the game, try to slow down, don't give the rocket a chance to turn over!" Although Johnson put Dirk off the court, he didn't want to lose this game, there were four minutes left in the game, reduce the pace of the game, if the Rockets want to win, it will still be very difficult!

……

When he heard his name shouted from the mouth of head coach Johnson, Li Tuanjie's heart was indescribably joyful, as the end of the game gradually approached, Li Tuanjie was actually ready to be punished by the system......

Of course, the consequences after being punished by the system must be very serious, and Li Tuanjie has already rumored that he has a history of mental illness, if he does anything particularly out of the ordinary, he will definitely be confirmed that he is mentally ill, and it is difficult to say whether the Maverick will cultivate Li Tuanjie again......

And now there are four minutes left before the end of the game, Li Tuanjie has a chance to play, there is certainly no big problem in completing the task, just a little luck, he can hit a three-pointer!

It only takes one three-point shot for Li Tuanjie to complete his task and avoid the tragedy of being punished by the system!

……

Before going on the court, Li Tuanjie saw Cuban smiling at him and winked his eyes, and then thought of the scene where Cuban and Johnson exchanged ears just now, and his heart suddenly became clear.

"It should be the credit of Kuban that he can appear at this point in time, it seems that Kuban's reputation is so good, it's really not unreasonable!" Li Tuanjie was very grateful to Kuban in his heart.

"Okay, speed up the task, I don't know what that item reward is, don't be an attribute pill ......"

……

The pause ended, the game continued to start, Yao Ming saw that Li Tuanjie got playing time at this critical moment, and smiled at Li Tuanjie, he was happy for Li Tuanjie!

Obviously, Li Tuanjie is not bad in the Mavericks, and the team has cultivated Li Tuanjie as Nowitzki's chief substitute!

Li Tuanjie and Terry, who appeared on the court, once again started to cooperate with elephants and mice, which is an offensive tactic specially formulated by Johnson for the two, and judging from the effect of the second half of the first quarter, this tactic is very suitable for the two.

In the first attack, after Li Lian Lian blocked and dismantled for Terry, Terry shot directly and hit a two-point shot!

On the second offense, Terry rushed to the basket and scored again with a trademark small throw......

Li Tuanjie felt that the situation was a little bad, Terry scored repeatedly, which is a good thing for the team, but it is not a good thing for Li Tuanjie, now Li Tuanjie urgently needs a chance to make a shot, and his task has not been completed!

Fortunately, seeing Terry's repeated goals, the Rockets strengthened their defense against Terry, so that Li Tuanjie finally got the opportunity to make a shot.

Since he only needed to hit a three-pointer to complete the task, Lee immediately ran near the three-point line after Terry's pick-and-roll, and as long as he received a pass from Terry, he could use the step-back step to shoot a three-pointer.

However, as if Li Tuanjie's good luck was used up in the first quarter, the step-back three-point shots after three consecutive catches all ended in iron, which made Li Tuanjie extremely anxious.

The end of the game is gradually approaching, and with Li Tuanjie's three misses, the Rockets have gradually recovered the score.

With less than thirty seconds left in the game, the Rockets were only two points behind the Mavericks!
