After returning from Washington, the next four games were played in Dallas.

October 10th. Take on the Bulls.

October 11th. Take on the Bucks.

October 16th. Take on the Pacers.

October 17th. Take on the Pistons.

In these 4 games, only when facing the Bucks, when the Mavericks had an absolute advantage, Wang Dachun got 5 rebounds and 1 block in 5 minutes of garbage time in the last quarter of garbage time, and all other statistics were 0.

The head coach also made the fans at the scene a little dissatisfied, believing that the preseason is the best time to hone new players, and Wang Dachun, as a rookie selected by the Mavericks this year, should get more playing time.

Coach Carlisle was unimpressed, he was a very traditional academic coach with a strong focus on the players' basketball fundamentals and tactical understanding.

Obviously, Wang Dachun is not meeting his requirements at the moment, so he only let Wang Dachun play in garbage time.

Wang Dachun was also a little frustrated about this, and he could only blame himself for his basketball foundation was really not good, and his tactical understanding was very average, so he could only train hard every day in the hope that he could make up for his shortcomings and improve his basketball skills.

The results of these 4 home games are two wins and two losses, and the final score is:

Mavericks vs Bulls. 110:102 wins.

Mavericks vs Bucks. 105:79 wins.

Mavericks vs Pacers. 93:100 loss.

Mavericks vs Pistons. 81:85 loss.

In the last 3 games of the preseason, the Mavericks played on the road, which were:

October 19th. The Mavericks played their first game on the road, the Kings.

October 22nd. The Mavericks play the Bulls again on the road.

October 24th. The Mavericks play the Pacers again.

The final result of the three away games was 1-2, and Wang Dachun did not play in all three games, even with a 20-point lead against the Kings, he still sat on the bench.

Wang Dachun himself has doubts about himself, is it that in the eyes of the coach, it is a waste of garbage time to play by himself? Of course, he didn't dare to question the coach about this question.

The Mavericks played eight games in the preseason, and the final result was four wins and four losses, and the eight games were played equally the end of the warm-up game, and soon the regular season began.

Nelson Jr. finished his day's work and was going home, and he was busy enough during this time, Josh Howard caused a big mess some time ago, and he just settled it out in the past few days.

I don't know what this guy thinks, he will die by himself if he finally gets the results he can play, if it weren't for the influence of this year's Mavericks lineup, he really wants to trade this guy out.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw that the lights were still on on the training ground, and it seemed that someone was practicing?

It's almost ten o'clock in the evening, who's still training? In his impression, the Mavericks did not have such a diligent player, and he walked into the training ground curiously.

After entering, I saw a big man, who should have just picked up a basket of basketballs and came to the free throw line to practice free throws.

Of course he knew who the boy in front of him was, the two hadn't seen each other since the last press conference, and the boy gave him the impression that he was a talented and honest man, and that he was still practicing at this time showed that he was also very diligent.

He can see from the pre-season match report obtained by his assistant today that head coach Carlisle does not seem to have given the Chinese boy too many opportunities to play.

This is not good, in addition to his talent, his commercial value in signing this boy cannot be ignored.

During this time, the team's merch questionnaire is displayed. The boy already has a sizable fan base in Dallas.

If Carlisle doesn't give the little guy more opportunities to play, it could make many fans resist the team.

He has to talk to Carlisle on these issues and he has to give the little guy more chances to play.

The first opponent of the Mavericks in the regular season seems to be the Rockets, and the Rockets currently have Chinese Yao, known as the "No. 1 center", if Wang Dachun and Chinese Yao are opposed, there is this selling point, this will be a good opportunity for the Mavericks to explore the Chinese market, he must have a good chat with Carlisle, and give the boy enough playing time in the next game.

Wang Dachun threw his 1,000th free throw, and after looking at the time, it was already more than ten o'clock, and it was time to go back.

He didn't bother to go to the locker room to take a shower, picked up the basketball that was scattered all over the court for free throws, took his bag and went out of the training hall, said hello to the doorman, got on the bicycle and rode slowly to the apartment.

It takes about an hour to ride a bike from the arena to his apartment, and both Frank and Zhang Yanan asked him to buy a car so that he doesn't have to spend more than two hours on the road to and from the arena every day.

Cars are still quite cheap in the United States, and if you buy a second-hand car, Wang Dachun can buy a good one with a month's salary, but what is more embarrassing is that Wang Dachun can't drive and hasn't learned.

During this time, the schedule of the game was relatively tight, and the time for training basketball was not enough, so it was impossible to find time to learn to drive.

And he also enjoys the feeling of riding a bicycle to see the scenery, especially when he comes to the stadium in the morning, he often meets the surrounding residents to greet him, and many people cheer him on, which makes him feel a little warm, which also makes him gradually like this city.

Follow the path I've been fumbling around the time back to the apartment, and after washing up, I want to ask the system some questions.

Wang Dachun doesn't have many friends in Dallas, and William, Frank and Zhang Yanan are the three people who are full of games, William has his own job and family, but he can chat with each other when he meets in the team, and he is usually busy with his own work.

Frank is often in New York, and the two usually contact each other by phone, even when he comes to Dallas, he is more with Zhang Yanan, after all, they are lovers.

Zhang Yanan, okay, this is a sister, it's okay to ask him for help, chat, forget it.

He talks to his family on the phone once a week, but he only reports good news and not bad news, and he doesn't want his family to worry about himself across the ocean.

So he sometimes feels quite lonely, although most of his teammates are relatively friendly to him and have invited him to nightclubs. But he wasn't used to his teammates using this way to connect emotionally, so he never went.

A lot of the time he's chatting with the system, treating the system as one? Half a friend, confide in it and ask some questions, of course, this is only his unilateral feeling.

Although the system did not give him some practical things, many opinions were still helpful to him, for example, he wanted to ask today:

"System, I don't play much right now, so why should I practice free throws?"

"Host, interior offense is the most likely target to be fouled, although the host now has fewer offensive opportunities, but free throws are not a day or two can be practiced, you need perseverance to improve your free throw shooting rate when you make free throws on the court.

"Hey, I don't even have a guarantee of playing time now, I only played five or six minutes in two of the eight games in the preseason, and I don't know how much time I can play in the regular season!"

"What the host needs is an opportunity, and the opportunity is fought for by itself, and I believe that as long as the host grasps every opportunity, he will definitely get more opportunities to play."

"I hope so!"
