I Am An NBA Goalkeeper

Chapter 76 Hurt Durant

The Mavericks gradually exposed a lot of problems after this time of the game. The coaching staff of the team needs to carefully consider the issue of player rotation.

The regular season trading period has ended. The team just signed a few marginal players and placed them in the development league as a backup.

The team itself has little room for reinforcement this season. This requires the use and health of existing players. Make a favorable plan.

Diop has been sent to the Development League for training because of his poor performance some time ago. The Mavericks are ready to re-enable Ryan Hollins. Matt Carroll and James Singleton. To enhance the rotation problem on the inside and forward. Hope this adjustment can help the team to some extent.

After enhancing the rotation of players. The effect is immediate.

February 25th.

The Mavericks play the Bucks at home.

The final score of the two teams was 116 to 96. The Mavericks won 20 points.

This score is not the most critical. You must know that the current record of the Bucks this season is not much different from that of the Mavericks. 28 wins and 30 losses, slightly worse than the Mavericks.

But today’s Mavericks inside is a complete blow to the Bucks inside. What I’m talking about here is not scoring, but rebounding.

The Mavericks scored 57 rebounds, the Bucks only got 25 rebounds.

This change can be attributed to coach Carlisle’s allocation of physical strength to the main insiders.

In this game, Carlisle wanted to calculate how long Wang Dachun could last at his peak state by defending with all his strength on the court. What is the efficiency value with other substitutions on the field?

Wang Dachun was notified before the game, and today there is no need to save energy on the court. Wang Dachun was also obedient, and after going on the court, he sprinkled and grabbed the rebounds.

After the game, Wang Dachun played 18 minutes off the bench. Scored 9 points, 19 rebounds, 4 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal. This also refreshed his own rebounds.

Re-enter Singleton and Hollins on the activated list. Although it was garbage time to play in this game, the protection effect for the inside line is also very good.

The Mavericks also played in a nine-man rotation at the beginning of the season. Became the current 12 players in rotation.

…

February 27th.

Today is the Mavericks’ last game of the month. Vs. Oklahoma City Thunder at home.

The Thunder’s starting lineup today.

Point guard. Russell Westbrook. 191 cm.

Shooting guard. Sabosovlosa. 201 cm.

Small forward. Kevin Durant. 206 cm.

Power Forward. Jeff Green. 206 cm.

Center. Nenad Costic. 213 cm.

The Mavericks’ starting lineup today is. Kidd, White, Josh Howard, Nowitzki, Dampier.

Wang Dachun was replaced in the seventh minute of the first quarter. The current score on the court is ten to sixteen. The Mavericks trailed by six points.

The main reason for falling behind is that Josh Howard can’t prevent Durant at all.

Durant held the ball inside and flew Josh Howard continuously. And Dampier, who was responsible for the defense, was too slow to defend Durant’s offensive frame. Durant kept dunking and scoring inside.

Durant is currently three of three shots and scored six points.

Wang Dachun was also dumbfounded. It’s hard to imagine a person of this height. The ball breakthrough is so sharp. Think about your own ball control, you can still control the ball in place. If you run with the ball, the basketball is not sure where it will go!

Durant thinks he feels very good today. Moreover, defending his own Josh Howard, he repeatedly suffocated under his own hands. In my current state, if I win 30+ today, there shouldn’t be a big problem.

…

The Thunder attacked.

Westbrook brought the ball to the frontcourt. Seeing how my brother is in such a good state today. Take the initiative to pass the ball to Durant to play.

Durant motioned to the players to help him open the space, holding the ball to the right 45 degrees. He is going to continue singles.

Josh Howard stepped forward to defend. He has been swung by this second grade several times today. The defense is very careful.

Durant did not hurry down and dribbled the ball, slowly moving forward, close to Josh Howard. Suddenly an acceleration, one step passed Josh Howard and rushed to the inside.

Wang Dachun has been taken by Thunder center Kstic at this time. Pulled to the left bottom line. Seeing that Durant has successfully broken through Josh Howard and rushed to the basket. Wang Dachun quickly bypassed Krstic’s block. Also rushed back to the inside to defend.

When Wang Dachun first stepped into the restricted area with one foot. Durant has taken off and prepared to dunk with both hands. Wang Dachun could only jump up and stretch out one hand to stop the ball.

Durant took off in his most comfortable position. The jump is also very high. However, Wang Dachun’s starting position was a bit remote, and it could only be regarded as rushing over. It was a little lower than Durant in height.

Durant used all his strength from top to bottom. Smashed his arms to the basket vigorously. Wang Dachun is pressing the basketball in Durant’s hands from bottom to top with one hand.

Wang Dachun’s hand pressed behind the basketball. Only then did I feel the strength of Durant’s forward impulse. Coupled with the power of inertia, Wang Dachun pressed one hand on the basketball, a little bit overwhelmed in strength.

Durant’s hands are still working hard. He didn’t think that the rookie in front of him could cover himself up.

Wang Dachun felt that this was trying to buckle his own rhythm, which was unbearable. Also use the strength of his whole body. Want to bring Durant’s power back to the top.

This made Durant pause in the air for a moment. At this moment, Durant’s stamina had begun to gradually fall short.

Durant and Wang Dachun are now in strength. One is exhausted, and the other has just arrived.

At this time, Wang Dachun only thought that he could not be separated. What made it was the strength of the whole body, there was no intention to reduce the strength, Durant’s strength was not as great as his. Being pressed by Wang Dachun’s power in the air began to lose his balance.

Wang Dachun shouted angrily in Mandarin.

“I want to buckle up! Grandma!”

Durant dribbled the ball together and pressed it down from the air sideways, and Durant fell to the ground sideways.

After Durant fell to the ground, he felt so painful that he could not breathe well. There was a hum in my head. Can’t move at all.

After Wang Dachun landed, he looked at Durant who fell on the ground. Xin said, “Oh my god, it’s not good, it’s so hard!”

I want to go over and take a look at the situation. Help Durant up.

Westbrook saw his good brother fall to the ground in pain. Wang Dachun still wanted to step forward. He rushed over and pushed Wang Dachun away. Guard Durant behind him. And looked at Wang Dachun angrily, and wanted to step forward to beat him. But he was stopped by his teammates.

Wang Dachun was also guarded by his teammates. In fact, he himself was a little apologetic. He really didn’t want to hurt people. Just want to prevent the ball from being blocked.

He also raised his hands. Said to the Thunder that he didn’t mean it just now. It was a mistake.

The referee quickly separated the players from the two teams. Afraid of causing conflict.

At this time, Durant, who was lying on the ground, slowly slowed down. After being checked by the team doctor, he was assisted and sent to the infirmary for examination.
