Chapter 69: The Crisis of Li Tuanjie

In addition, Li Tuanjie lost the touch of the first quarter of the game, resulting in a lot of scoring efficiency.

It can also be seen from here that playing as a substitute in a strong team, although the playing time will be less, but the scoring efficiency per unit time will be higher, at least at the moment, if Li Tuanjie and a group of substitute players appear, his scoring efficiency per unit time will drop a lot.

Of course, even so, Li Tuanjie's performance is enough to be called a complete Rudy Guy.

The scores of the two sides were gradually getting closer, and Li Tuanjie was also a little anxious, but he also knew in his heart that it was useless for him to be anxious, and there was obviously a huge gap in the strength of the lineups on the field between the two sides.

……

"Ah......h

The fans in the stadium immediately jumped in shock, Dampier is the Mavericks' current interior barrier, if he is injured, then the Mavericks' life will be sad......

Li Tuanjie also rushed over worriedly, Dampier was competing with Pau Gasol for an offensive rebound just now, but he broke his ankle when he fell!

This kind of injury can be big or small, if it is not serious, it can be healed after a few games, but if the injury is serious, it is not impossible to reimburse the season!

"Brother Dampier, is it serious?" Li Tuanjie didn't dare to reach out to Dampier, the current injury is still unclear, and if he moves Dampier recklessly, it will easily lead to aggravation of the injury.

Dampier, who was sitting on the ground, was already speechless in pain, and his head was covered with cold sweat.

The referee immediately gave an official timeout, and it was clear that Dampier would not be able to continue the game!

Avery Johnson off the court, his face was pale, he was really afraid of something, just now he was worried that the Mavericks were weak on the inside and couldn't compete with the Suns or Spurs......

But now with Dampier's injury, the situation has become even more encouraging!

Dampier is currently in his thirties, and his physical fitness has declined greatly, and this injury will definitely make it worse, even if Dampier returns from injury, his strength will definitely be affected!

"Oh no, if Dampier's defensive strength continues to decline, then our interior line is almost useless, and it is difficult for a Diop to be a big job!" Head coach Johnson is on fire.

In the playoffs last season, speaking of which, although in the finals, the Mavericks were generally optimistic about winning the championship, but the Mavericks actually stumbled in the West, in addition to sweeping the Grizzlies in the first round, the second round and the Spurs grabbed seven, and the West Finals played six games with the Suns, and it was also the Sun's strength that was damaged and played six games, it can be said that the strength of the Mavericks in the West actually has no overwhelming advantage at all!

This season, as Dampier continues to get older, coupled with this injury, the Mavericks' interior strength is definitely not as good as last season!

"It looks like we have to find a way to strengthen the inside line!" Head coach Johnson made up his mind and quickly changed the lineup on the field, putting Diop and the starting lineup on the field and replacing the substitute lineup.

……

Li Tuanjie played for about 14 minutes and scored 18 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 1 steal, and his performance was amazing!

Of course, this data is still there, and many shots are made by other teammates who are feeding him the ball.

Sitting on the bench, Li Tuanjie was also a little worried about Dampier's injury.

Li Tuanjie is not stupid, the reason why he is worried about Dampier's injury is that in addition to having a good relationship with Dampier, he is also worried about himself.

If Dampier's injury is not serious, it is good to say that the Mavericks' current lineup should not have any major changes.

But Dampier was carried out on a stretcher just now, and the injury must not be light!

Once Dampier's injury is so serious that the Mavericks have to find a way to strengthen the interior line, then Li Tuanjie's situation will be a little dangerous!

At present, the players that the entire Mavericks can really come up with to make a trade, or in addition to a few core players, the player with the greatest trade value is undoubtedly Li Tuanjie!

Li Tuanjie's performance in these two games is undoubtedly eye-catching, and the most stark contrast is Li Tuanjie's rookie in the same class!

Needless to say, Rudy Gay was completely blown out by Lee, while the rookies of the other teams also made their career debuts.

In addition to Tanhua Adam Morrison, no other rookie has scored 15 points in a single game, and there is no doubt that Li Tuanjie's performance is very eye-catching in his rookie!

The 14th pick is a rookie, the price is cheap, almost a free job for the team for four years, and Li Tuanjie's performance is very good, such a player is extremely valuable in trade, and it is easy to sell it in the league for a good blue-collar center.

"Let's see how the situation develops next, I hope Dampier is not seriously injured and can come back soon, otherwise, the possibility of me being traded is not small!" Li Tuanjie thought silently in his heart.

The Mavericks team, Li Tuanjie very much wants to continue to stay, first, this team Li Tuanjie can learn a lot, and secondly, the atmosphere of the team is good, and there are no bullshit things.

Li Tuanjie was only a nineteen-year-old young man, and he didn't want to be teammates with those vicious villainous players.

"Look at the arrangement of the Mavericks' management, if there is really an intention to trade me, I am afraid that my playing time will definitely be increased in the future, so that I can play at a high price!"

If the Mavericks really want to trade Li Tuanjie to get interior reinforcement, they will definitely give Li Tuanjie enough time to play in the next game, so that Li Tuanjie can play an excellent performance, so as to increase the price!

Some people may wonder why the Mavericks didn't choose a center player in the draft?!

The biggest reason is that this rookie actually doesn't have any decent center at all, and there is no player who can replace Dampier as a Maverick and become a blue-collar center!

Champion Bagnani is a center, but his style of play is basically the same as Nowitzki's, and the picks are too high, even if the Mavericks want Bagnani, they don't have that chance.

……

At present, there are only two centers in the Mavericks' lineup, Dampier and Diop, Dampier is injured, and Diop is definitely needed to take on the defensive responsibility of the interior!

If Dampier's offensive ability belongs to the scum level, then Diop's offense is not even as good as the scum, plus the defensive awareness is not good, although the block data is better, but the average number of fouls per game is a lot, for example, in this game, he only played ten minutes and contributed six free throws to Pau Gasol......

It can be said that Diop is a typical chicken rib player, and it is a pity to discard it if it is tasteless.
