Ginobili slowly walked onto the court, and all the fans in the audience turned their eyes to him.

As a rookie who the Rockets traded superstar player Mobley back, he naturally has to be noticed by everyone.

"He's the rookie the team traded Mobley back for?! Can he do it?! A Rockets fan on the sidelines asked with some hesitation.

"I heard that this rookie is playing very well in Europe, so I should ...... It's okay......" another Rockets fan said with a hint of skepticism.

"Should?! Come on! Mobley is a star-caliber player! Won the best sixth man! Can this rookie compare?! Isn't it impossible for many players who played well in Europe to come to the NBA?! If you want me to say, this Ginobili definitely can't do it! Dawson was lucky enough to make a good deal. The Rockets fan who spoke first said through gritted teeth.

When he said this, the surrounding Rockets fans were not optimistic about Ginobili.

After all, they know all too well what kind of general manager Dawson is.

Posey was traded for Battier before, and that was shit luck.

How is it possible to make two good trades in a row?!

Is that still Dawson?!

In an instant, the Rockets fans in the Toyota Center Arena gradually became a little depressed.

And the Mavericks' players and coaching staff naturally don't take Ginobili even more seriously.

In particular, the head coach of the Mavericks, Don Nelson, had a very disdainful expression on his face, completely disbelieving that Ginobili could make any difference on the court.

The starting lineup was a few points behind, and the substitute lineup was still a rookie.

No one looks at it, I don't think the Rockets' bench can play well.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle and substitute center Kevin Cato passed the basketball to Ginobili.

Ginobili held the ball and pushed forward, feeling the strange eyes cast by the whole court, and he was very angry.

He has played in Europe for several years and has played extremely well on the international stage. Why is it that when he arrived in the NBA, except for Han Ning and his teammates on the Rockets, everyone was not optimistic about him?!

In charge of defending Ginobili is the Mavericks' backup point guard, Von Exel.

Van Axel was a second-round pick in '93 and was named to the All-Star bench in the highlight of his career, and is a point guard with excellent assist ability.

In the face of such a player, Ginobili did not have any timidity in his heart, but was still a little excited.

The tougher the enemy, the more his strength can be reflected.

Ginobili had been holding his breath in his heart, wanting to prove it to everyone in the league.

He's Ginobili, although he's a rookie, he's definitely no worse than Mobley!

He is a player recognized by Han Ning, and he is a top star who, like Da Yao, Francis and others, can leave a strong mark in the league in the future!

Holding the ball to meet Van Exel, Ginobili dribbled with his left hand to make a look of preparing to break to the left, attracting Van Exel's body to tilt his body to the left, and then quickly dribbled behind his left hand, and sprinted to the right with the ball in his right hand.

When Van Axel saw this scene, his expression suddenly became much more solemn, and he hurriedly turned around and chased after him.

He could see from this simple back dribble just now that Ginobili started quite quickly and had very solid dribbling skills.

However, when Van Axel was about to catch up with Ginobili, he suddenly found that he had lost someone.

After Ginoby saw Van Exel catching up, he didn't choose to continue to break inside, but did not hesitate to retreat outside the three-point line with a step-back step, and then started shooting.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

A clean three-pointer!

Van Axel, who was defending him, didn't even have time to keep up with the block!

In an instant, the entire Toyota Center Court was instantly detonated.

This rookie player, who was not favored by them, hit such a beautiful three-pointer as soon as he came on the court!

Defending him is still the former All-Star level Van Axel!

The score came to 23-21, and the Rockets were only two points behind!

"This rookie seems to be pretty good! This three-point shot is really accurate! The Rockets fans who had previously doubted Ginobili's strength immediately praised him.

Mavericks head coach Don Nelson looked at Ginobili with wide eyes, a little surprised.

He's a very experienced head coach, so he can see a lot from the three-pointer that Ginobili just shot.

Whether it is from the confidence of the shot, the technical level and the physical fitness, it can be seen that Ginobili's strength is quite good.

At the very least, he's a good substitute.

Don Nelson secretly muttered in his heart, "This transfer deal Dawson made this time doesn't seem to be a loss." This doesn't quite fit his personality! He used to be a notoriously bad transfer stink! ”

A smile escaped from Ginobili's face, and he quickly stepped back.

Van Exel stared at Ginobili with a somewhat unkind look.

As an NBA veteran, being teased by a rookie, his face is naturally a little unbearable.

"Damn rookie, do you know what the real NBA is?!" Van Axel said with a fierce expression.

Ginobili couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Van Axel sneered, then accelerated straight to the left side of Ginobili's body.

Seeing this, Ginobili hurriedly pounced.

However, Van Axel had just rushed half a step to the three-point line when he suddenly jumped up and threw the basketball.

Even if Ginobili reacted and made a block, it didn't have much impact on Van Exel's shooting move.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

A three-pointer was scored, and the score gap came to 5 points again.

"Welcome to the NBA, rookie!" Van Exel's expression became extraordinarily arrogant after returning a three-pointer.

When Ginobili heard Van Exel's words, he suddenly felt a burst of anger in his heart.

He's a rookie, but he's also a point guard who has led the team to defeat the American Dream Team on the international stage, and when it comes to Vin Axel's mouth, he's a rookie?!

"See, no Smith! See? That's the strength of the Mavericks! Barkley sat in the commentary seat, slapping the table excitedly and shouting.

Mavericks head coach Don Nelson had another smile on his face.

Even if Dawson doesn't lose much in this transfer deal?! Do the Rockets still want to catch up with a good backup point guard?! Impossible!
