For the Mavericks, this was a great opportunity to gather everyone. After all, it was the first time the players had seen their new head coach.
Everyone was familiar with the coach, Don Nelson. All the players were in the training arena, waiting enthusiastically for the arrival of the head coach.
Soon, the head coach, Nelson, and the team manager, Suo Li, appeared in the training hall.
"They're all here!"
Although it was Nelson's first time coaching this group of guys, his years of coaching experience made him unfazed.
"Then I will directly announce that Jiang Han will be the core of the team's offense in the new season!”
When Nelson came up to announce that the core of the new season's offense would be Jiang Han, no one had any objections.
It wasn't just the 81-point performance that had stunned them twice in a single match. In the past few days of training, they had also truly experienced how terrifying Jiang Han's scoring ability was.
With Jiang Han leading the attack, everyone agreed with both hands!
"And we will integrate more elements in the new season and increase our speed.”
In the eyes of orthodox basketball defenders, Don Nelson was a deviant. In his 30 years of coaching, Don Nelson had made countless inventions, big and small:
Controlling the small forward, cutting the shark, pulling the big man to the outside to shoot three-pointers...
In the 2006 - 2007 season, when he led the Warriors, he used the bombardment tactic to create the famous Black Eight miracle.
Of course, this was a story for the future.
Nelson's request for the Mavericks to speed up their offense in the new season was already very conservative.
"I agree."
After Nelson spoke, Jiang Han was the first to speak." I have some other opinions on speeding up.”
As a transmigrator, Jiang Han naturally understood the philosophy of the small ball era in the future. Don Nelson happened to be a coach who liked innovation. Jiang Han had endless topics to talk about with him, so he discussed tactics with Nelson.
The opportunity for everyone to gather not only allowed them to understand Nelson, but also gave Jiang Han a new understanding of all the Mavericks players.
The five starting players for the new season were almost completely confirmed.
Point Guard: Jason Kidd
Shooting Guard: Jiang Han
Small Forward: Michael Finley
Power Forward: Chris Gatlin
Center: Zarjunas Ilgeskas
Jiang Han felt that this starting lineup was not bad.
As for the reserve main force, it included the alien Sam Cassel and the big bamboo man Sean Bradley.
In terms of the depth of the lineup, it was slightly lacking and needed to be filled.
It was also with this main lineup that the Mavericks began the 1996 - 1997 NBA preseason!
Of course, the preseason was an unimportant match. Jiang Han went with the team, but he played less than eight minutes per game.
The Mavericks 'management wouldn't let Jiang Han get close to any injury in an unimportant game.
Jiang Han didn't play for too long and didn't use his full strength before the preseason ended.
。。。
At the end of October, the 1996 - 1997 NBA regular season officially kicked off!!
NBA fans all over the world became restless.
The NBA officials had also arranged for a big game in the opening game of the new season. Chicago Bulls would play against the Washington Bullets at home!
The matchup between last season's FVP, Michael Jordan, and Mr. Billionaire, Juwan Howard, became the main topic of the game!!
Juwan Howard's performance was definitely worthy of his billion-dollar contract, contributing 28 points and 9 rebounded.
However, the mighty Chicago Bulls had suppressed the Bullets the entire time.
The Bulls 'trident, Michael Jordan had 32 points and 9 rebounding, Scotty Pippen scored 26 points, and Rodman dominated the rebounding with 7 points and 16 rebounding!
When they woke up, the Bulls had won.
In the new season, the Bulls were still the strongest contenders for the championship!
The other highlight of the opening game was the San Antonio Spurs versus the Yale Knights!
David Robson VS Karl Malone
The collision between real men made the players 'blood boil.
In the end, Karl Malone and Stockton's pick-and-roll gave the team a chance at survival. The former scored 21 8, while the latter scored 18 points and 16 assists. The Knights won by three points!
On the second day of the regular season, the NBA would hold as many as eight games!
The Cowboys of the Houston Rockets also welcomed their first match of the new season!
Their opponent was the playoffs team from the Eastern Conference last season, the Miami Heat!
"Hello, everyone!"
"Welcome, everyone, to the new season's game between the Dallas-Mavericks and the Miami as scheduled. This is ESPM Radio!!”
In the opening remarks, the famous commentator of ESPM, Mike Breen, announced the focus of the game.
"Jiang Han, the beauty show in this year's draft, has become the core of the team of the Houston Mavericks!”
"However, at the start of the new season, Jiang Han will face the challenge of last season's Eastern Conference playoffs team!”
Last season, when the Miami Heat faced the arrogant and arrogant Chicago Bulls in the first round of the playoffs, they were 0:3. Defeat.
Losing to the Bulls wasn't an injustice in this era. No one would describe the Heat as a garbage team just because they were swept by the Bulls.
On the contrary, the Miami Heat had signed Alonzo Mourning on a 100 million yuan contract this summer. They were making a comeback in the new season, aiming for the championship!
This also meant that Jiang Han, who had just entered the league, would be directly challenged by a powerful team!
Everyone's eyes were focused on this youth.
The match was about to begin. Jiang Han took off his training jacket, tucked in the corner of his shirt, and prepared to go on stage.
Ding dong…The system detected that the new season had begun. The fans of the Las Vegas team were looking forward to it. They had temporarily activated the S-level mission and won the Player of the Month award for the first month of the new season. They shocked the league and made the fans of the Las Vegas team feel gratified.
If you succeed, you will be rewarded with a Purple Level Skill Lottery.
