Justin Anderson, who was picked by the 21st pick in the first round of the 2015 Dallas Mavericks.

He is 6'6,198 cm tall and weighs 103 kg.

At CUBA, that's at least the weight of a No. 4 position, or even a lot of centers, but in the NBA it's just a small forward or even a percentile player.

As for the technology, basic skills, etc., there is no need to analyze at all, and the gap can be seen from this alone.

Justin Anderson is a small forward, and as you can tell from his thick physicality, this is a defensive strongman.

In the first round of last year's playoffs, in the Mavericks' game against the Thunder, Anderson, who was still a rookie, dazzled Mavericks fans with his defensive play.

On that Dallas Bulls, who are generally over 30 years old, Anderson was the only player who could keep up with the offensive and defensive rhythm when facing the Thunder King bomb combination.

Against the Thunder team Durant and Wei Shao, he is not frightened at all, and his style is very straightforward and tough, which is very similar to his rugged appearance.

In fact, if Chen didn't parachute this year, Anderson would definitely be the main and core player of the Dallas Mavericks Summer League, because Dallas didn't have a first-round pick at all this year.

The Dallas Mavericks' 2016 first-round pick was sent to the Celtics back in the '14-15 season, along with Brandon Knight, Jae Crowder and Jameel Nelson, in the Mavericks-Celtics trade for Rajon Rondo and Dwight Powell.

And this first-round pick protected by the top 7 picks completely belongs to the Celtics after the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Utah Jazz to enter the playoffs, and only the 14 teams that did not enter the playoffs are eligible for the lottery draw, and the Mavericks obviously can't get the top 7 picks.

Chen Zhi looked at Anderson, who had just spoken, but smelled a strong hostility from his smile.

Or it's not hostility, it's just the feeling of being completely unconvinced, like holding a gun to the enemy's head and saying, I can easily kill you!

Anderson just has the confidence and momentum to be able to defeat Chen Zhi!

"Okay!" Chen Zhi smiled when he saw this and readily agreed, seemingly unaware of Anderson's hostility, and the smile on his face was very hearty.

"Jonathan is also our main player in the summer league, hey Vander, why don't you rest for a while."

Anderson is already familiar with these players, and as a first-round pick with the Dallas Mavericks, he clearly has enough say in this group of undrafted summer league teams.

Chen Zhi couldn't help but smile when he saw this, that Vander Blue was the point guard of the white team, and Anderson, AJ Hammons, Finney Smith, Jonathan Gibson and other main players of the summer league were all on the basketball team.

Although the white team is mostly undrafted or development league members, although it is also very strong, it is obviously slightly inferior to the blue team, and usually, it is in a state of suppression.

Although little Nelson was far away, he saw the situation very clearly, and he wanted to mediate, but he was stopped after just two steps.

Rick Carlisle said: "We'd better not worry about it for a while, it might be counterproductive to meddle at this time, they don't contradict each other, it's just a normal exchange between young people!" Let's watch from the sidelines and see what Chen will do! ”

The training match soon began, and Jonathan Gibson played against Chen Zhi, who was holding the ball, and his defense played almost no role in restricting Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi advanced to the front court and quickly changed direction in front of the two bodies, and Jonathan was shaken by the center of gravity, but Chen Zhi did not break through, and pulled up on the spot to shoot three points.

After Jonathan's center of gravity was scattered, he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of Chen Zhi, who was bouncing fast and fast, and stretched out his hand as much as he could, which was probably no different from not reaching out, and then watched Chen Zhi hit a three-pointer in front of him.

Anderson shook his head while watching, this Chinese CBA scoring champion defense is too bad!

After two casual strokes, they lost their center of gravity and defensive rhythm, and these guys who like to score crazy are really not reliable on the defensive end!

"In the next round, we will change the defense, and I will defend him!" When it was the BLU's turn to attack, Anderson said as he ran past Jonathan, who had the ball past half the court.

Regarding Anderson's words, Jonathan naturally could only nod and agree, who called someone an active NBA player, and the Mavericks are someone else's home team! NBA players naturally have more say than free agents.

Although he nodded in agreement, Jonathan couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, I'll see how you defend it!

The reason why he kept following Chen Zhi's rhythm of ball control was that he knew that Chen Zhi's passing speed was too fast, and if he was a little slower, he might be directly brushed by, so he could only quickly adjust his center of gravity.

Jonathan came to the front court and passed the ball to Anderson on the left side, and the opponent was one step away from him, and symbolically jumped up to block it.

Although Anderson had poor three-point accuracy in the regular season, shooting only 26.5 from the field, after gradually adapting to the NBA three-point line, he has shot 30% in five games against the Thunder, which is a lot of improvement.

Don't look at Anderson's poor shooting percentage now, in his final year of college, the three-point shooting rate is as high as 48.4%, although he is now iron-clad, but he is still quite confident in shooting three-pointers.

The basketball hit an arc in the air, and his three-point shooting percentage was quite high at this defensive intensity.

Chen Zhi continued to advance with the ball, and when he came to the front court, he found that the defender standing in front of him had been replaced by Anderson.

"Hey! It's been a long time since the Mavericks had a max-paid player, not even Dirk, so please let me see the level of max-paid players, okay? ”

Justin Anderson said with a serious face, but his words were full of sarcasm!

Chen Zhi smiled and didn't reply, but he said in his heart that this guy is really upright, and he has to be so clear about people, this is only the second round, it's too calm!

However, since he came to the door, he still made provocative remarks, and Chen Zhi did not intend to be soft-hearted.

Chen Zhi controlled the ball with his left hand in front of Anderson's defensive body, changed to the ball and handed it to his right hand, leaned forward slightly, moved his right foot slightly, and broke through on the right side. His defensive moves are quick to adjust, the amplitude is just right, and the defensive details are good, and there is a reason why Gibson's defense is not looked down upon.

Quickly retracting his slightly right forward center of gravity, his right hand quickly exerted force, and again changed the direction of the body to the left hand, Justin Anderson immediately moved quickly to the right, cutting off Chen's possible breakthrough route.

In the process of moving to the right, Justin Anderson found that Chen Zhi took a step back to the left with his left foot, received the ball with his left hand, retracted his center of gravity, looked up at the basket, and touched the basketball in his left hand with his right hand, which was to shoot the basket, which was the same as when he faced Gibson just now.

Anderson immediately took a step forward with his right foot and jumped hard, stretched out his arm to interfere with or even block the shot, and as soon as his center of gravity was adjusted, he realized that he had been fooled.

Chen Zhi's right hand that touched the ball did not touch the ball, and at the same time, the right foot that followed up after the left leg retreated was in the air, and he stepped towards the right front with the adjustment of the center of gravity!

Worship the Buddha!

Chen didn't continue to kill the basket after taking a step past Justin Anderson, and in Anderson's sideways glance, he jumped up and hit a long-range two-point shot.

Shooting, indeed, is the easiest means of scoring!

After Anderson landed, he put his hands on his waist and looked at Chen Dao, the opponent had quickly retreated, and he didn't make eye contact with him at all.

However, there were still people who were willing to make eye contact with him, and Anderson, who turned his head, felt that Jonathan Gibson looked into his eyes, and there were two big "idiot!" written in his eyes. ”

sob！！ Anderson couldn't help but curse! However, I was shaken up just now, and I was indeed an idiot!
