February 18th.

    Today, the court station specially broadcast the match between the Mavericks and the blue nets.

    For Chinese, today''s game is the first one between Yi Jianlian and Wang Dachun, two new generation players in China''s basketball field.

    Before the game, Dallas coach Carlisle received a request from general manager Nelson Jr. I hope Wang Dachun can play as a starter in the next two games.

    Carlisle did not refuse the request. For Wang Dachun''s performance during this period. Carlisle is still very satisfied. If it wasn''t for the team''s old center Dampier''s experience on the field and the role of the crucial moment, Wang Dachun can''t compare now. Carlisle is willing to use Wang Dachun as a fixed starting center.

    The reason why Nelson has such a request is not only that the team has a good record in this period of time. Also because Wang Dachun recovered from injury, the performance is more stable, growth is also very obvious. The team has received many sponsorship applications from Chinese businesses.

    From these we can see that Wang Dachun has gradually helped the Dallas Mavericks to open the Chinese market.

    Today''s game, the nets team last year''s No. 6 show Yi Jianlian. Little Nelson believes there are a lot of Chinese audiences. They all hope to see the duel between Wang Dachun and Yi Jianlian. Little Nelson naturally would. Wang Dachun is recognized by more people.

    That''s why he specially told Carlisle, the head coach. Let Wang Dachun play the next two games as a starter.

    In the last game between the Mavericks and the nets. Yi Jianlian came out as a starter. But I didn''t expect that. Yi Jianlian was not in the starting position, but Wang Dachun''s rookie Ryan Anderson was in the starting position. That is to say, Yi Jianlian has become a substitute for the rookie.

    The League stipulates that the starting list of each team should be submitted to the technical station 10 minutes before the start of the game.

    The Mavericks list has been submitted. Today is to let Wang Dachun and Yi Jianlian fight. The Mavericks just let Wang Dachun play as a starter. Now Yi Jianlian starts from time to time. It''s impossible for the Mavericks to make adjustments for the time being.

    Wang Dachun was a little surprised when he saw the starting list of the nets on the electronic screen and looked in the direction of Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian is very disappointed on the bench.

    He should have just learned the news. Because they''re both warming up. And said hello. Yi Jianlian was in a good mood at that time. It''s obviously different from what I''m losing now.

    The starting lineup for the New Jersey Nets today is.

    Point guard. Devon Harris. 191 centimeters.

    Shooting guard. Trenton Hassell. 196 cm.

    Small forward. Venkat. 198 cm.

    Power forward. Anderson, Ryan. 208 cm.

    Center. Brooke Lopez. 213cm.

    Wang Dachun looked at the inside lineup of the nets. He knows both of them. He is the same class, the 10th in the first round. A first round 21st. Both were chosen by the nets. And the two are from the same university.

    Today, Wang Dachun wants to weigh up the two insiders who are in the same class with him. In particular, I want to see what kind of ability Anderson has to put Yi Jianlian on the bench.

    The game begins.

    Wang Dachun jumps to the ball.

    Lopez, who is opposite to Wang Dachun. It''s a traditional center. Take the ball attack mainly by chisel and back body, Wang Dachun is not afraid of this type.

    Although Lopez is also a heavy center. But Wang Dachun didn''t take much effort to defend him. And there''s spare time to defend Anderson who wants to get into the box.

    Anderson in the interior was Wang Dachun after two risks. I didn''t dare to get inside again. I went to the three-point line and shot.

    Wang Dachun saw Anderson no longer enter the inside line. He took the initiative to change defense with boss Nowitzki. Run to the outside line to defend Anderson.

    Nowitzki''s defense is not particularly good. However, there is no problem in defending a rookie like Lopez. On the contrary, it is not as good as Wang Dachun to let him defend a shooter like Anderson, who likes to float on the outside.

    That''s what makes Ryan Anderson miserable. After Wang Dachun blocked his attack from the inside, he did not plan to enter the inside again. Get ready to run on the outside line and shoot in the open. I didn''t expect that Wang Dachun changed his guard and followed him.

    Wang Dachun naturally knows who he is and belongs to the same class as himself. Although it''s an end show. But half a season has passed. Wang Dachun was named the best defensive player in this rookie.

    Today he was promoted to the starting position by the coach. It was a very happy thing. He can be put in the starting line-up. In addition to his excellent three points, he and Lopez have been teammates for three years in the University, and now they are playing in the same team. The coach attaches great importance to the tacit understanding between them in the game.

    He wanted to show off today. Try to get a good number. There''s Wang Dachun on the inside. He doesn''t have much chance. I''m ready to look for opportunities on the outside line. Now I''m chased out by Wang Dachun. Even if the ball was in his hands, he didn''t dare to throw it.

    In the first half, the two teams played fairly smoothly. The main force of the Mavericks played normally. Wang Dachun was replaced after the first quarter. He didn''t play in the second quarter.The nets couldn''t open up on the inside. Mainly by Carter and Devon Harris two people in the outside attack, to maintain the score was not pulled. Yi Jianlian came on as a substitute in the second quarter.

    The score of the two teams in the first half was 52-50. The Mavericks are two points ahead.

    After the opening of the second half, Wang Dachun came back on the court.

    Wang Dachun thought that he could compete with Yi Jianlian at last. Yao Ming said that Yi Jianlian''s inside skills are still delicate. There are a lot to learn.

    But I didn''t expect that they had just played a round. Yi Jianlian was replaced again. It''s Anderson again.

    Wang Dachun was a little angry at this time. Can we still play well. He just wants to compete with Yi Jianlian on the field. As for the staggering coincidence?

    In order to make Yi Jianlian play. Wang Dachun started to defend Anderson. It''s difficult for Anderson to connect the ball. Watch yourself, Anderson. The nets have no intention of replacing Yi Jianlian.

    Wang Dachun began to spare no effort. Anderson and Lopez will defend the two together. And go crazy for offensive rebounds. After grabbing the rebound, pass it to the outside line.

    It may also be influenced by Wang Dachun''s mood. In the third quarter. Mavericks feel surprisingly good outside. Kidd made two of his three-point shots. White''s nerve knife broke out, too. Three points, three shots, three hits.

    This led to the Mavericks and nets in the third quarter. It''s a 15-40 straight. In this section, the nets were beaten to pieces.

    At the end of the third quarter. The score was 92-65.

    The Nets coach Lawrence Frank is also single. In the fourth quarter, he admitted defeat and sent all the substitutes.

    The Mavericks are embarrassed to start again. Today, the Chinese Derby planned by Nelson and Carlisle still failed in the end.

    Wang Dachun didn''t expect that he just wanted to fight Anderson and play Yi Jianlian. He didn''t expect that his teammates would join in the fun. I went straight to the net team.

    Until the end of the game, the score was 113-93. The Mavericks won the game by 20 points.

    The Mavericks had a terrible three-point percentage today. The team made 14 three-point shots and hit 10 goals, with a hit rate of 71.4%. Coach Carlisle has even begun to doubt. Is it because Wang Dachun is on the court and can protect the rebounds. That''s the right time to vote?

    All the starters except Wang Dachun scored 20 +. For the first time this season.

    Wang Dachun scored 7 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals in 20 minutes.

    Yi Jianlian came on as a substitute for 20 minutes. Nine points and four rebounds.

    In their first game in the NBA, there was almost no opposition or confrontation. It''s a pity for many Chinese who pay attention to this game.
