NBA beast center

Obviously, the center Haywood and small forward Butler obtained by the Mavericks in this deal will likely directly serve as the team's starting center and starting shooting guard, so that the team can arrange Haywood, the old king, Marion, Butler and others. Kidd's lineup.

This lineup has both defense and offense, and is highly experienced. The only shortcoming is that the overall age is too old, and it will be a bit difficult to meet speed teams.

For Shou Ye, with Gooden gone, it is difficult for him to have a chance to play. Carlisle does not trust him very much. He would rather let the 203cm Najera play the center than him, let alone Marion can play the 4th position. up.

Deshaun Stevenson will be Beaubois' direct competitor. The two play the same position and are both contenders for the last spot in the team's rotation.

What should come will come after all, and the team's trade cannot be controlled by the two rookies Shou Ye and Beau Bois.

In the dormitory, Beaubois sighed: "Drew Gooden played so well, he was traded when he said the deal. And Josh, he played here for so many years, he was also traded. Not to say that Mark Is Cuban the most affectionate owner in the NBA, why is he so cheerful?"

Shou Ye smiled wryly, and suddenly thought of the "loyalty" and "one person, one city" that online fans had been discussing in his previous life. In fact, even superstars can hardly avoid being traded. The reason why "one person, one city" can become a good talk is largely because it is too rare!It wouldn't be surprising if it could be seen everywhere.

"NBA is also a business, and affection is relative. As a role player, I don't have the right to choose independently. Not everyone is Dirk, and we are not even lottery. Maybe the next time we will be traded is me and You, who can say for sure!" Shou Ye said calmly.

Seeing Shou Ye speak so calmly, Beaubois admired his attitude of not being surprised even more, and he sighed: "Tom, if one of you and I are traded, we will be separated."

Shou Ye grinned, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be so sad, even if this happens, we are all in this alliance. The worst case is that we are not in the alliance anymore, but life has to go on No? In order for us to stay in this league, go train, brother! Do you still have strength?"

Beaubois nodded vigorously: "There are many!"

"That's good, let's go!"

Because of the trade, Shouba and Beaubois have been more active in practice, surprising the rest of the Mavericks' players and coaching staff at how hard these two rookies are getting.

But this is not a bad thing after all, even because of Shou Ye's hard training, it also stimulated the training enthusiasm of several veterans, and the atmosphere of the team has become better.

The regular season continues.Shou Ye did not get a chance to play because of the team's trade and hard training, and even roommate Beau Bois did not enter the rotation in the first game after the All-Star break.

The Mavericks lined up the starting lineup of Haywood, the old king, Marion, Butler and Kidd and the bench lineup of Terry, Najera and Barea, a total of 8 rotations.As a result, even Beau Bois was not able to enter the rotation.

On February 2, Carlisle finally started to rotate with 21 people, but the team's 9th man used the newly traded Deshaun Stevenson instead of the team's first-round pick Beaubois.

Beaubois was a little hard to accept. He was very frustrated. He felt that his hard training had not been recognized by the coaching staff.

Seeing Beaubois like this, as a roommate and gay friend, Shou Ye felt that it was necessary for him to enlighten him.

In the dormitory at the end of the game on the 21st, Shou Ye sat in front of the expressionless Beaubois and said to him: "I understand your feelings very well. You are different from me. You are a first-round pick, and you were also a ball player before. The team rotates normally, and it is normal that you cannot accept Coach Carlisle's arrangement now."

Beaubois raised his head, looked at Shou Ye, and said with a wry smile, "I worked so hard, why can't the coach see it?"

"The coach saw it!" Shou Ye continued, "But you have to look at the overall layout of the coaching staff. Now they arrange to play 8-9 players. If they play 8 players, Jason Terry and Jose Juan Barea, who do you think you can replace?"

Shou Ye said it very bluntly, but Beaubois was not angry at all. He shook his head and said, "I don't want to replace either of them. I just think I should be the ninth man of the team!"

Shou Ye looked straight at him and said: "To put it bluntly, it's the competition between you and DeShawn, but he only played for less than 2 minutes in this game! The coaching staff doesn't trust him very much, otherwise they wouldn't give such a Little time. You can't see anything with this little time."

Beaubois nodded in agreement, apparently in a much better mood.

Shou Ye continued: "What you have to do is to show your performance when the coaching staff inspects you. As long as you perform better than him, I don't think Coach Carlisle will favor him. You are the team's first choice. Lunxiu, he came by trade, how can you say that you are also your own son!"

Beaubois smiled: "I understand, I will work harder, let them see that I am better than Deshaun!"

"That's right, only if you are strong, you don't have to worry about fairness and injustice. Gold can shine everywhere!" Shou Ye was speaking to Beaubois as well as to himself.

After this game, the Mavericks basically had an 8-man rotation, and Deshaun Stevenson didn't get much playing time.Many experts and fans questioned that Carlisle's short rotation in the regular season is not conducive to the team's physical distribution, because the core players of this team are all too old and have potential injuries.

The time has come to March.Although Carlisle is also using 3-8 rotations (9 rotations are used more), but because Kidd and Terry have a truce due to injuries and personal circumstances, Beaubois and DeShawn Stevenson All got a lot of opportunities.

Shou Ye is still sitting on the bench, and he has basically accepted this reality, that is, he may not be in the rotation again this season.

The record of the Mavericks is not bad. During this period, they ushered in a wave of 10 consecutive victories, and the team's record has been firmly ranked among the top 4 in the Western Conference.

Until April 4, the last regular season game of the Mavericks, Shou Ye was not able to play.

In the end, the Mavericks ended all games this season with a record of 56 wins and 26 losses, and entered the playoffs with the second record in the Western Conference.

The top 8 in the West are the Lakers, Mavericks, Suns, Nuggets, Jazz, Trail Blazers, Spurs, and Thunder.

So in the first round of the playoffs, the Lakers VS Thunder, Mavericks VS Spurs, Suns VS Trail Blazers, Nuggets VS Jazz.
