Chapter 410: Strange Soldier (1/4!) )

In the memories of his previous life, Butler was drafted by the Bulls with the 30th pick in '11.

Now that pick has become the Cavaliers.

The Bulls were the No. 29 pick, and they were previously traded for the No. 26 pick from the Lakers.

If you don't trade upwards, you may really miss him.

Just as he was thinking, Butler's one-on-one with Iverson had already begun.

An iconic crossover, Butler was shaken down without grabbing his center of gravity.

The other rookies on the sidelines laughed.

The other three people have a chance to play against Iverson, they don't have any opinions, after all, the tryouts are all good, but Butler's performance is very average but he also got the opportunity, they are a little unhappy, and now that Butler is shaken down, they naturally laugh happily.

Casey was also stunned for a moment.

Although Hamilton and Joseph did not take advantage of it, they were not shaken down.

Butler himself, who didn't care about being shaken down or the laughter around him, patted his ass and continued to stand up.

"His mental quality is not bad." Casey said at this point what he probably felt was the only merit.

Continue Iverson's dribble.

To the left, to the right, another crossover.

Butler's misjudgment and although he was not shaken down again, he still watched Iverson score on a layup.

2 to 0.

The result was 3-0 again, and it was shaken down once, and it was the worst one.

Iverson's third break.

He only changed his direction once, and then broke through.

But at this moment, Butler successfully predicted correctly, took a step back, and retreated directly to the position.

Iverson didn't expect to be forced to stop directly, and he didn't score the ball in the end.

The other rookies stopped laughing, and Casey also showed a "huh".

The two sides exchanged possession, and Butler hit Iverson with his back to the basket and was cut when he took the shot.

Once again, the ball came to Iverson's side.

He was noticeably more serious at this time, and continued to change his desire to break through to the basket.

Butler defended and retreated, and when he got to the basket, he seized the time to interfere, but Iverson's shot still didn't score.

"He's adapted so quickly." Casey looked surprised at this time.

It was at this moment that Butler pressed Iverson to the basket, protected the ball the moment he turned and shot, and finally scored the ball on the board.

1-2, Butler pulled a goal back!

Seeing this, Casey finally knew why Tang Tian was impressed by this seemingly ordinary player.

This is a player who is very good at learning and improving himself!

Although it looks ordinary now, it is not sure that it will be successful one day.

The Cavaliers now have a big three, and the newcomers don't have playing time, isn't this exactly what they need!

In the end, Iverson still won the duel 3-1.

"Well done." But at the end, Iverson smiled and patted Butler on the shoulder, admiring him as well.

Tang Tian watched the whole process, and he was quite satisfied with Butler's performance.

Now, it's up to us to see if we can really choose him in the end.

Brown will have a hard time keeping this summer, and Whiteside has been cultivating for a season, and it's time to use it.

When the time comes, Paul, Butler, James, Whiteside, and Yao Ming will really be able to sweep the league with melon seeds.

The day after the trial, Tang Tian and his teammates boarded a plane to Dallas.

There, they will face the Mavericks in Game 3 of the Finals, the first of the Mavericks' three consecutive home games.

Dallas fans still have a lot of support for the Mavericks, and the pre-game crowd was empty.

This is another chance for them to challenge for the first title in team history.

Five years ago, they led 2-0 and were won by the Heat in four consecutive sets, and now they are down 0-2, and they also believe that the Mavericks can turn the tide.

Team owner Mark Cuban even said that as long as the Mavericks win the game, they will give out free T-s and burgers to everyone on the scene.

The American Airlines Center was full of enthusiasm.

"It's difficult to win a fight here, but what I ask you to do, for the championship, to keep going!"

After making the final mobilization for the players before the game, Tang Tian walked out of the player tunnel with the players of the Cavaliers.

The enthusiasm of the Dallas cowboys was on fire, and the sound was rolling in at the opening ceremony.

It's certainly not easy to play away from home like this.

Both starters were introduced one after another.

The Cavaliers are still the same starting lineup, and Iverson is still the team's starting point guard.

On the Mavericks' side, Carlisle took the initiative to adjust and removed Stevenson, but instead of Terry, he was replaced by Barria.

This is a dual-control lineup.

There was no news before the game, and the Mavericks did an excellent job of keeping it secret.

Seeing Barria start, some memories in the depths of Tang Tian's mind were awakened.

Single-defense James, this little man in his previous life played the role of a surprise soldier in the Finals and was a big contributor to the Mavericks' championship.

And he also recruited Barria to play for the Rockets for two years after he crossed over, and his improvement is definitely greater than in his previous life, especially the three-point shot.

Because Iverson is also a point guard, the two sides directly become a two-point guard duel.

Chandler turned the ball back to half court amid the cheers of the crowd, and the Mavericks had a chance to take the lead in attacking.

Kidd dribbled to the frontcourt, gave the ball directly to Barria, and ran to the bottom corner himself.

It's a direct possession of the ball to Barria.

Barria held the ball and faced Iverson, a dribble, and a "snap" dribble directly in.

There is no change of direction, it is simply acceleration.

It was almost to the limit, and Iverson didn't have time to retreat.

Artest, who was on the weak side, saw it and came over to make up for it, but it was here, Marion cut to the basket.

Barria hit the ball beautifully, Marion received the ball and was one meter away from Yao Ming, and directly chose to hit the board and throw.

"Bang!"

The ball bounces into the basket after hitting the board.

The first two games were mediocre and he finally found his form when he returned to his home stadium.

Paul dribbled forward and Barria led directly from the back.

The Mavericks not only made changes to their starters, but also made changes to their defensive plays.

Paul pressed Barria to advance to the frontcourt, looked for Yao Ming's block and passed the ball back.

"Smack!"

Barria was so fast that he cut off the ball in one hand.

After breaking the ball, he quickly attacked the front court, faced Iverson with a slow-down and then accelerated speed change-up layup, and shook the latter over.

4 to 0.

The Mavericks are playing with momentum at home.

Tang Tian frowned slightly at this time.

Upper Barria is not only a change in personnel, but also in the tactical system.

In the first two games, the Mavericks wanted not to give the Cavaliers a fast break, pressing the rhythm, and couldn't hold it down.

Now Upper Barria is directly fighting with the Cavaliers for speed.

It's exactly the same routine as when he played the Heat in his previous life.

And it worked exactly the same.
