Chapter 207: Let's talk about it first

In the tunnel of the players, the Dallas Mavericks gathered together. X

Chen Zhi shouted loudly: "go, mavs!" ”

“go,mavs!!!” The players who participated in the pre-season responded in unison.

Mark Cuban was also in the player's tunnel, and when he heard Chen Zhi's shouting, he couldn't help but be shocked, he could hear the excitement and high spirits in Chen Zhi's voice, just like the general sworn before the big battle!

Typically, this slogan will be led by the team leader players, such as James leading the Cavaliers to shout "Let's Go, Cavs!" before the game. "Come on, knight! Or rather, go, knights!

In Dallas, this leader is naturally the Nuo Tianwang, but the Nuo Tianwang did not accompany the team to fight.

The person who can take over the slogan of King Nuo Tianwang is naturally the second leader of the team in essence.

Between Barnes and Chen, Cuban and Carlisle chose the latter.

In just a few days of training camp, he has completely mingled with several young people in the team, and in the locker room, several young people often make meat and vegetarian jokes, which is very harmonious.

Comparatively speaking, the older Barnes was a bit slow to warm up, he was too polite to everyone, and although it was polite and correct, there seemed to be an inexplicable barrier.

Probably he just left the familiar team and teammates, and he has no real sense of identity with the Dallas Mavericks, or he still has nostalgia and reluctance for the Warriors, and he still has a lot of unforgettable memories for the Golden State Warriors.

This TM is the same as first love. Cuban looked at Barnes, who was shouting slogans loudly, but seemed to be still outside the team, and secretly screamed fk, that feeling was like discovering a beloved girl, who was already Lao Tzu, but whose heart was someone else's!

However, basketball players are also human beings, and Cuban will not say anything about this kind of human nature, but is just thinking about doing something to help Barnes integrate as soon as possible.

"Here are the players from the Dallas Mavericks!"

In the magical shouts of the DJ on the scene, the Dallas Mavericks players appeared in turn!

"Harrison Barnes! 6'8", forward, from the University of North Carolina! ”

Harrison Barnes is the first to play!

"Dwight Powell, 6'11", forward, Stanford!"

"Justin Anderson, 6'6", shooting guard, University of Virginia!"

"Quincy Essy, 6'7", forward, Baylor!"

"Chen... Arrive! The top salary was drafted, the point guard, from China! ”

When Chen arrived, the DJ on the scene shouted so loudly!

It seems that so far, the top salary loss draft is Chen Zhi's label.

The lineup sent by Carlisle is all young.

When Rondo had moved to the Kings and then to the Heat, the inconspicuous Dwight Powell became the main rotation player in the Mavericks, averaging 5.9 points and 4 rebounds in 14.4 minutes per game last season. Agreed a four-year, $37 million contract with the Dallas Mavericks this summer.

Powell isn't big enough, but he can run and jump, and he's an athletic No. 4 or 5 player, arguably the only player with a top 10 dunk in Dallas Mavericks last season.

And the one who became his dunk background emperor was none other than the dunk king LaVine...... came out to mix and have to pay it back sooner or later, and Lavin, who has staged many violent deductions, must have been deeply touched by these words.

As for Quincy Esie, he entered the NBA in 12 years and played for the Raptors, Kings, and Knicks, although he is not tall enough, he has strong jumping ability, plays very passionately, and can get 5.8 points and 4 rebounds in 15 minutes per game, and is a standard blue-collar player.

But if he presses his beard, then he is a supergiant like James Harden! Especially coupled with the bald head style, it is very similar to the rebounding maniac Reggie Evans.

Powell will undoubtedly play at the No. 5 spot, but he usually comes off the bench at the No. 4 spot, with Barnes playing small forward, Quincy Esy at the No. 4 and Justin Anderson at the No. 2 spot.

This lineup, in addition to Chen Zhi, is simply a 3-point iron team, Powell shoots more under the basket, and there is also some shooting rate in the middle distance, and he began to try three-point shooting last season, and the effect is not good, but Carlisle still asks him to continue to strengthen three-point practice, Barnes's three-point seems to be good, but he has not recovered from the finals, Anderson and Quincy Esy have three-point shooting ability, but the shortcomings are the same, very unstable.

Pelican center Alexi Atkinsa hails from France and is 218 cm tall with an arm span of 236 cm, which are two absolutely alluring luxury stats for the physicality of a top center.

It's a pity that the pace of action is too slow, and the athleticism is insufficient, and even the top interior blue-collar can't reach it, but Coach Gentry obviously prefers him to Asik.

Powell jumped the ball, Anderson received the basketball, passed the ball to Chen, the Pelicans quickly retreated, Chen dribbled to the frontcourt, faced Langston Galloway, who was about the same height as himself, and stopped near the three-point line.

Chen noticed the Pelicans center at the beginning, Atkinsa was moving slowly, and called Powell to block the pick-and-roll high, and it should be a good choice to play Powell after the pick-and-roll.

Chen Zhi was about to beckon Powell to a high position, but suddenly heard the defender in front of him suddenly say, "Hey, you're the undrafted pick who got the top salary, huh?" Come on, up, I don't mind, let me see how far I am from you! ”

Chen Zhi stared at the lower back defense in front of him and then looked up at his short player, trying to tell whether he was taunting or really looking for a gap in his calm words.

Although this guy didn't seem to have the slightest tone of mockery, Chen Zhi really didn't believe that someone would say this to him absolutely sincerely.

"Are you also a rookie this year?" Chen Zhi didn't see the slightest meaning in his eyes except for fighting spirit, and couldn't help asking, this guy is still a little interesting.

"No, I'm just like you, I'm also a draft loser, a draft loss in 14 years! Come on, let me see how far away from the top salary is! The tone was still flat, like a casual chat.

"What's your name!" Chen Zhi asked curiously.

"Langston Galloway! Remember the name of the man who blocked you! At this time, Langston Galloway finally revealed the taste of provocation.

"Hey, Chen, attack, are you chatting! Look up at the time! Don't pay attention to his trash talk, you're wasting your time! Damn, no one told this rookie not to waste offensive time on trash talk! ”

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines was already very uncalm when the first offensive round had not started, and ran to the sidelines and yelled at Chen Zhi!
