    On October 30, the NBA regular season of the 2001-2002 season finally kicked off.

    For the fans, after waiting for several months, they finally waited for this day, and their inner joy was no less than a holiday.

    For all NBA teams, after months of preparation, it¡¯s finally time to see the real deal.

    The Pistons will fly to Dallas early in the morning, and they will challenge the Mavericks led by Nelson tonight away from home.

    Speaking of Nelson, senior fans should know that his real name is Don Nelson, and he is a very famous coach in the NBA.  It is also during this season that he will become the third "thousand-win coach" in NBA history The first two "thousand-win coaches" are Lanny Wilkens and Pat Riley.

    Of course, if you include the coaching career of ABA, which was not yet merged into the NBA, then Larry Brown is the third "Thousand Victory Coach", and Nelson can only be counted as the fourth Brown is still very good.  Otherwise, Bill Davidson, the former Pistons owner, wouldn't have asked him to replace Carlisle.

    About to face off against one of the greatest head coaches in NBA history, Carlisle's heart is undoubtedly full of fear, but his character has always been soft yet strong, soeven if he is just a rookie coach, deep down he can't help but  There was a bit of an urge to try.

    Isn¡¯t he a legendary coach?  I will do the same sooner or later from now on!

    In the morning, everyone conducted a simple training, mainly practicing defensive tactics.

    In this drill, Carlisle was simply too satisfied with Wang Dalin, because there are too few players in the entire league who can imitate Nowitzki's style of play, and Wang Dalin happens to be one of them.

    During training, Wang Dalin imitated Nowitzki's usual high post singles, and Robinson, Moore and others who defended him were all beaten in agony.

    It has to be said that after equipping the skill "Aldridge's back-up", Wang Dalin's back-up attack level was immediately qualitatively improved. Although it is still not comparable to the "old driver" who became the "Golden Rooster Independent" in later generations, it can be  In this era, it is already very powerful.

    Wang Dalin himself is also very happy. For a long time, he has been confused by the lack of back-up attack methods. Now he has turned into a "back-up master". How could he not be happy?

    ??Unknowingly, this 19-year-old has taken another solid step towards becoming the league's first-class star.

    There were certain changes in the starting lineup in the evening. Carlisle put Billups on the bench, and Atkins, who had been the team's starting point guard last season, returned to the starting lineup again.

    Wang Dalin speculated that Carlisle wanted to allow Billups to adapt slowly, and may also have the intention of appeasing Atkins, the "old man of the team."

    ¡°After all, you have been a starter for a season and you have played pretty well. If you are suddenly put on the bench, no one will feel comfortable.

    Atkins has clearly seen the general trend of the team, but he will definitely play hard on the court at this time. Even if the team wants to trade him, it must at least show his worth first, right?

    Atkins signed a 6-year, $22.5 million long-term contract with the Pistons. It is only the second year of the contract, and he does not want to be stigmatized as a "high salary and low ability".

    At the beginning of the game, Ben easily defeated Nowitzki when he jumped the ball Yes, the person who stood in the center circle and jumped the ball for the Mavericks in this game was the "old driver". He is the center in the starting lineup.

    Carlisle frowned slightly off the court. He was a little confused about Nelson's intention Why should Nowitzki be played as center?  Do you just want to speed up the pace of the game?

    He was not wrong, that¡¯s what Old Nelson thought!

    After Wang Dalin scored the first goal, the Mavericks immediately sent a baseline kick.  Point guard Steve Nash rushed to the frontcourt at lightning speed. Seeing that Atkins was a little behind in his defensive position, he pulled up and hit a three-pointer. The ball went cleanly into the basket.

    Not to be outdone, Wang Dalin turned around and immediately hit a three-pointer in front of Finley, and then Nash launched a fast break again.

    This time he just faked a shot in front of Atkins. When Atkins raised his center of gravity, he hit the ground and passed the ball accurately to connect with Finley who cut quickly.

    Wang Dalin wanted to catch up and give him a big block, but the "old driver" suddenly stood between him and Finley. He could only watch as Finley easily completed the shot in one step inside the free throw line.

    5:5, both sides were evenly matched at the beginning of the game.

    The Pistons attacked for the third time. This time Wang Dalin mentioned the high post to catch the ball.?" is a proper S-level star skill. Even though Nowitzki has not yet developed this unsolvable "big killer" at this time, his current back-up skills should be considered A+ level, indeed.  Better than Wang Dalin.

    As time passed bit by bit, the head coaches of both sides began to deploy their troops.

    The Pistons replaced Coris Williams, Mickey Moore and Joan Barry, with only Ben still on the court among the starting five.

    For the Mavericks, Nelson chose to beat the main team. He only replaced the tired Buckner and Howard, who had been fighting under the basket for a long time, and replaced them with "big bamboo poles" Sean Bradley and Tim Harda.  Power.

    Yes, Hardaway was traded to Dallas in the offseason this year, and the Heat received a second-round draft pick from the Mavericks - which makes people lament that "the hero is late". The once All-Star point guard is now only  He can get a second-round pick, and he has been completely reduced to a substitute player in the Mavericks!

    Seeing Hardaway stand up, Wang Dalin ran over to say hello to the big brother enthusiastically. The two had a good relationship before.

    But the stadium is just the stadium, not a place for players to reminisce about old times. The two just said hello and separated From this moment on, they are already opponents!

    No matter how good the relationship was before, brotherhood can only be put aside on the field, and there is only tit-for-tat between the two sides.

    Seeing Hardaway dribbling across the midfield line with a slightly heavy pace, Wang Dalin couldn't help but sigh on the bench The "Beetle" who once had a gorgeous style of play can no longer spread the wings under his carapace.  !

    Billups did not "respect the old and care for the young" when facing Hardaway. His close pressing caused Hardaway to make a dribbling error.

    Hardaway was eager to get the ball back, but Billups picked up the ball and rushed towards the frontcourt, leaving Hardaway with "exhaust" on his face.

    Originally, Hardaway played a total of 54 times with the Mavericks this season, 52 of which came as a substitute. He averaged 23.6 minutes per game, 9.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 3.7 assists. As a backup point guard, his performance is still very competent.

    However, as his physical fitness continues to decline, his shooting percentage is getting lower and lower, and his offensive efficiency is getting further and further behind last season.

    In the second half of the season, Hardaway was traded to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for former All-Star point guard Nick Van Exel.

    Of course, the old and frail Hardaway will definitely not be able to exchange for Axel. This is a big deal involving 7 people.

    Among them, the Mavericks sent Juwan Howard, Tim Hardaway, Donnell Harvey, a 2002 first-round draft pick and US$1 million in cash in exchange for Reeve LaFrentz, Nick Fan.  Axel, Avery Johnson and Wahad.

    ¡­¡­

    The words were returned to the home, and after the steal of Luspus, I came to the frontcourt and went directly to a empty basket.

    Looking back, Hardaway was extremely careful in dribbling this time and did not give Billups another opportunity to take advantage of.  He played a solid pick-and-roll with Nowitzki, then stepped back and hit a three-pointer.

    Although Hardaway's shooting percentage has dropped to around 36%, his three-point shooting percentage still remains above 34% The "Old Beetle" obviously still has some oil in the tank.

    It was the Pistons' turn to attack. This time Billups and Williams played a wonderful double team. Williams made a mid-range shot after receiving a wonderful pass.

    Because he was traded to Detroit in the middle of the season, Corris Williams only played 27 games for the Pistons last season, but he averaged 15.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game.

    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that he was a starter for the Raptors and didn¡¯t come off the bench enough times, it is estimated that Wang Dalin might not have been able to get the ¡°Best Sixth Man¡± award last season.

    As a powerful small forward with a height of 201cm and a weight of 111kg, Williams' offensive efficiency at this distance within the free throw line last season was very high, especially his finishing rate at the basket was as high as 65.8%, which was already the best among forward players.  Considered a leader.

    This season, he plays the role of the sixth man in Carlisle's tactical system, mainly as Wang Dalin's substitute, and occasionally swings to the fourth or second position. It is estimated that he can get an average of about 22 minutes of playing time per game.  .

    ?Compared with Atkins, his offensive power is more powerful, his offensive efficiency is higher, and he also has good defensive ability.

    The first quarter ended quickly, and the two sides tied at 28:28.  During the break, Wang Dalin noticed that Wang Zhizhi on the Mavericks bench had begun to warm up.

    This scene was apparently also seen by the on-site commentator and the "non-famous cross talk group" in the TNT live broadcast room. Smith smiled excitedly: "Charles, you see Wang Zhizhi is going to play, can this game be regarded as a 'Chinese Derby'?  "

    Charles said disdainfully: "What's the 'Chinese Derby'? That guy is just a bench player, how can he be compared with Darling King?"

    Smith smiled and said: "What you said makes sense, and I can't even refute it!"

    In fact, the domestic media used to hype up every time Chinese players met in the NBA. They would call this kind of game "Chinese Derby". In fact, there is no such term in the American media "Chinese Derby"  , at least both sides have to be all-stars, right?

    But in this life, when Wang Dalin and Wang Zhizhi meet for the first time in the NBA, what kind of sparks will fly between them?
