"It would be great if I could get a skill about three-pointers in the future. By the way, Brother Big Zhi seems to have a super-long-range three-pointer skill. At that time, if you have enough trading points, you can buy it from him!" Li Tuan thought silently in his heart.

Things like three points don't mean that you can get them through hard work. Sometimes it depends on your talent, but it's not the case if you learn with skills. As long as you work hard, you have the possibility to practice to the top!

...

After watching Li Tuanjie's three-point training, the Mavericks didn't say anything. This three-point shooting percentage is not good, and it is even a bit pitted, but it also shows that Li Tuanjie, a rookie player, has three-point ability.

Coach Johnson's face was full of joy, as if he didn't care about Li Tuanjie's somewhat low shooting percentage at all.

"Haha, not bad! It's really good. Although the shooting rate is a bit low, but the height, posture and speed of the shot are good. If we work hard, I think our Dallas Mavericks will welcome another big three-pointer soon! "

"Well, coach, I will work hard!" Li Tuan nodded and said!

Judging from the current lineup of the Mavericks, Li Tuanjie will definitely be able to get playing time, and the playing time will definitely not be too little, at least more than ten minutes of playing time can be guaranteed!

But if Li Tuanjie cannot continue to improve his strength, then his playing time this season will basically remain at ten minutes. After all, Dirk Nowitzki is currently at his peak, averaging 35 minutes per game Still a breeze.

As Nowitzki's substitute, Li Tuanjie can only replace the twelve or thirteen minutes when Nowitzki is not present!

He only played about 12 minutes, which obviously couldn't satisfy Li Tuanjie. His goal this season is to play an average of 20 minutes per game with the Mavericks!

Obviously, if Li Tuan played for 20 minutes, it would definitely overlap with Nowitzki's playing time!

"As soon as possible to fully develop my offensive ability, maybe Avery Johnson will try some more alternative lineups, so that I can get more playing time!" Li Tuan thought silently in his heart.

The so-called alternative lineup, according to Li Tuan's idea, wait until his offensive ability is more comprehensive, such as a relatively stable three-point shooting ability, Johnson can put himself on the court and Nowitzki to form a double anti-aircraft lineup, Lee Unity can open up space for German anti-aircraft guns, and Nowitzki can also open up space for Li Tuan, a Chinese anti-aircraft gun!

Of course, this is just Li Tuanjie in YY. If this lineup is really used, it will be a bit too different. The lineup with two inside towers has appeared in the league before. A lineup with double anti-aircraft guns? never appeared...

...

After generally finding out Li Tuanjie's immediate combat power, Johnson specially arranged for the Mavericks' player training group to do some special training for Li Tuanjie this summer!

...

More than two months have passed, and time has entered October. Fans who are familiar with the NBA know that starting in October, the NBA offseason is over, and some NBA practitioners have also begun to get busy.

On October 3, Li Tuanjie followed the Mavericks for the last day of training. In two days, the preseason will be played. In order to get off to a good start, after today's training, they will suspend the team training to let the players Take a good rest.

The time of more than two months is not long, but Li Tuanjie feels extremely long!

In the past two months, Li Tuanjie has been really desperate. He has squeezed out every minute and every second of himself for training. As the NBA game is approaching, he wants to improve his ability as much as possible strength!

Since Stanford International is only half an hour's drive away from the training ground, Li Tuanjie still lives in the school and takes the subway to the training ground every morning to train.

Practice until noon, buy some food around the training ground to satisfy your hunger, take a short break for an hour, continue training until the Mavericks players come to the training camp in the afternoon, and then train with the team!

When he returned to the dormitory at night, he was not idle at all. He first entered the virtual space, played the virtual game once a day to earn skill proficiency, and then began to practice three-pointers on the virtual court!

...

On October 5th, the NBA preseason officially kicked off. As the team with the No. 1 record in the Western Conference last season, the Mavericks received a lot of attention. They will definitely play the opening game of the preseason!

During the offseason, many teams must have undergone personnel changes. The preseason game can provide these teams with a good opportunity to run the lineup, and it has been silent for several months. The NBA also needs the preseason game to prepare for the main game. Heat up the game atmosphere in advance.

When Li Tuanjie learned about their opponents in the first game of the preseason, he felt a little complicated...

The Dallas Mavericks' first game opponent, the Houston Rockets!

Speaking of which, the league's arrangement also has their intentions. Both the Rockets and the Mavericks are located in Texas, so the distance is very close, so there is no need for players to work hard. After all, the preseason games are not included in the regular season record. In most cases, the principle of proximity is adopted, and teams with close distances are found to play against each other.

The second reason lies in Li Tuan...

Now, the Chinese market has become a big piece of fat. Yao Ming's success has completely exploded the number of domestic fans. The NBA is also very greedy for this piece of fat. They want to develop China's basketball market more deeply!

When it comes to developing the Chinese market, one has to mention the current president of the NBA, David Stern. They all say that the rise of the NBA really depends on Jordan. In fact, it may not be true. David Stern also played a vital role in the rise of the NBA. important role!

Stern's dedication is obvious to all. To what extent can he be dedicated?

In 1989, in order to develop the Chinese market, Stern went to China to discuss broadcasting with CCTV. In the eyes of CCTV leaders, David Stern was just a foreign businessman, so he didn't care...

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, David Stern waited outside for more than an hour before finally meeting the leader. Of course, the result was good. He successfully opened the Chinese market...

Later, as the Chinese market became bigger and bigger, the NBA also paid enough attention to the Chinese market!

In the opening game of this preseason, they played the idea of ​​attracting Chinese fans, the Chinese Derby!

Although Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming had such a brief overlap in their careers, the status of the two in the NBA is obviously not a heavyweight, so they can't make a derby stunt.

Now that Li Tuanjie is born, although he is still far behind Yao Ming, Li Tuanjie is also a lottery pick in the NBA draft!
