Wang Dachun was a little restless at the moment, and now there was still half an hour before the start of the game, but the coach informed him to let him start today when the team first arrived at the Amway Arena.

Wang Dachun was very happy after hearing the news, and he became a starter, which shows the coach's recognition of himself.

But then the coach's series of words made Wang Dachun unable to be happy:

"Wang, I'm going to put you in the starting lineup today, replacing Dampier to defend the Magic's center Howard, who is currently one of the best interior players in the league. Yesterday just set a record that no one has done in nearly 20 years! I know he's hard to defend, so don't put any pressure on him when you get on the court, try to fight him for rebounds and stop him from scoring, don't worry about fouls, just do everything you can. ”

After finishing speaking, he patted Wang Dachun on the back to show encouragement and cheering, and then turned around to arrange the affairs of other players, leaving Wang Dachun, who was still digesting the information in the coach's words.

Head coach Carlisle had no choice but to let Wang Dachun start, and the team's current situation must be that no one can defend Howard.

Dampier's physical strength must not be able to keep up, Diop's defense is definitely not good, and he can only let Wang Dachun go on the court first to grind Howard's physical strength, the reason why he is not worried about Wang Dachun's foul problem is mainly that Howard's free throw shooting rate itself is not high, so far this season, the free throw shooting rate is 58.9%. This is still within my own tolerance.

Wang Dachun, who reacted after a long time, looked at the back of head coach Carlisle and wanted to shout. "Coach, I probably know too much!"

I thought that being able to move to the starting position was a sign that my status in the team had improved. From the coach's words, it can be seen that he is a cannon fodder, and I don't know why the coach has to emphasize Howard's awesomeness, don't you know that this is a big blow to your confidence?

Fortunately, Wang Dachun's mentality changed relatively quickly. Thinking that he himself belongs to cannon fodder, the time to start is just an advance of the ashes, and the team needs to be free to worry about personal gains and losses.

However, he is not calm now, and just now subconsciously wanted to take a look at Howard's data skills.

After Wang Dachun read Howard's data, his heart was cold, this is the rhythm that is going to be destroyed, and there is not even ash left.

In addition to speed, he doesn't have the capital to compete with Howard in terms of data, let alone skills.

Diop, who was also sitting on the bench, looked at Wang Dachun, who was a little at a loss, and felt a little gloating in his heart.

During this time, although he was still the first rotation substitute in the team's center forward position, he was suppressed by Wang Dachun, who played much less time than himself, during this period of time, which made him feel a deep sense of threat.

In his opinion, Wang Dachun's skills are much rougher than his own, and he barely has a physical advantage, and the data is basically brushed out of garbage time, if this guy's data road goes up, his position as the starting substitute may not be guaranteed.

Just let him face Howard today, and he will definitely be able to beat him out of the prototype, so that the coach can see that he is a scum in essence.

The game started with both sides starting the game.

Today, the Mavericks' starters made adjustments, not only Wang Dachun was in the start, but head coach Carlisle considered that there was no Terry to lead the bench players on the court, and this group of substitutes could not turn on the court at all.

It turns out that White, who is in the starting quarterback position this season, has been really hard to talk about during this time. Four games in a row. Three to five shots per game without a single hit, and the data is all zero, which is really wasteful. (White: ...) (｡ •ˇ‸ˇ•｡ )... ）

At the moment, Josh Howard can only be promoted from small forward to the position of shooting guard, and then Green to the starting small forward position, and Terry continues to play as the sixth man to lead the rotation players to the bench time.

The starting lineup of the Magic.

Point guard. Jamil Nelson. 183 cm.

Scoring guard. Michael Petrus. 198 cm.

Small forward. Hidutekoglu. 208 cm.

Power forward. Rashad Lewis. 208 cm.

Center. Dwight Howard. 211 cm.

The center forwards of both sides came to the midfield to prepare to jump the ball, Howard smiled at Wang Dachun, Wang Dachun looked at Howard and smiled at himself, and there was only one thought in his mind: This thing has white teeth!

The referee came between the two, and the two sides were ready to jump.

Wang Dachun wiped his hand on his pants, and his palms were a little sweaty.

The moment the basketball tossed the ball, both of them jumped up, Wang Dachun touched the basketball first, slapped the basketball to his teammates, the referee's whistle sounded, the Mavericks center jumped the ball violated, and the ball was slapped down before it reached the highest point.

Howard was a little surprised, the center on the opposite side of the ball just now must have miscalculated his bounce speed. The basketball doesn't rise as fast as his bounce, it seems that he is a rookie, obviously has little experience in jumping the ball, I haven't paid attention to this guy before, but he is really good at jumping.

The second jump ball was still Wang Dachun who hit the ball first, this time there was no foul, the racket went to Kidd's hand, and Wang Dachun ran to the front court of his team immediately after landing.

Magic people didn't expect Wang Dachun to rush into the inside line at such a fast speed. Kidd, who had just received the ball, also quickly threw the basketball at Wang Dachun in the half, and Wang Dachun jumped high and dunked the ball in the air.

Howard, who was chasing after him, was also surprised by Wang Dachun's speed, and thought to himself: It seems that the Mavericks, the center, are valued by him.

The Magic attack.

Wang Dachun followed Howard closely and entered the interior defense. Don't dare to be careless.

The Magic blocked and ran from the outside, and Lewis received a direct three-point shot from the basket, but the shot missed, and the basketball bounced high on the basket.

Howard and Wang Dachun fought for position under the basket, Wang Dachun wanted to jam Howard, but the upper body was squeezed by a strong force and failed to get the position, and the rebound was picked up by Howard with one hand.

Wang Dachun also experienced Howard's power for the first time, he has been in the league for so long, although he often can't get stuck in his position, but he has never been squeezed out of the power.

After Howard got the basketball, he prepared to make a basket. But fortunately, Wang Dachun's upper limbs were squeezed away by Howard just now, but his lower limbs didn't move much. And not completely out of place.

Seeing Howard ready to go to the basket, Wang Dachun reached out to block it, but his hand was on the back of Howard's hand, and the basketball was also knocked down, the referee's whistle sounded, Wang Dachun fouled his hand, and Howard made two free throws.

Wang Dachun sighed and fouled once in the first minute of play. This Howard is really hard to guard!
