Chapter 10 Debut
If it was Billy Owens in his peak period, Wang Dalin would definitely be blown up against him. In his peak period, he could average 15 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists per game, and his shooting percentage exceeded 50%. He is definitely a very good small forward in the league.

Moreover, he is 203CM tall and weighs 100KG. His figure is very similar to Scottie Pippen, the second head of the Bull Dynasty. He was the perfect size for a small forward in that era.

However, after playing in the NBA for many years, Owens has been covered with bruises. In the 99-00 season, his state has fallen off a cliff. He averaged only 6.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

Of course, in the 00-01 season, Owens performed even more hip-stretching, and his average three-point shooting percentage even dropped to 15% in the season, and even made only 47.5% of free throws, which was worse than O'Neal's free throws.

After this season, Owens directly chose to retire, ending his 12-year career.

Facing Owens whose strength had fallen to the bottom, Wang Dalin did not hesitate, and immediately dribbled the ball from the right side after a tentative step.

Two steps in from the three-point line, Wang Dalin made an emergency stop jumper, and the basketball passed through the basket with a "shua".

The goal was scored cleanly, and the Heat's bench on the sidelines applauded.

Spoelstra yelled, "Wang...good shot...just hit!"

It can be said that among the people present, Spoelstra is the one who values ​​Wang Dalin the most. It is because of his strong recommendation that Wang Dalin can enter the lineup of the Heat's summer league.

If Wang Dalin does not perform well, as he did in the trial training before, it is estimated that Spoelstra will lose a lot of points in Pat Riley's mind.

Now that Wang Dalin scored a goal as soon as he came on the field, a big stone in Spoelstra's heart fell directly into his stomach... well, it should be said that he was still a little worried about Wang Dalin's subsequent performance.

The Pistons' offense was quite simple. Mickey Moore wanted to return a ball in the middle distance, but the ball was hit by Brown's interference.

Wang Dalin tried his best to block the position, but the rebound was still taken off by Grant.

With his current rebounding ability, how can he beat Grant?

At his peak, this high-quality insider averaged more than 10 rebounds per game, and he averaged 7.4 rebounds per game throughout his career.

In the 00-01 season in the original time and space, he averaged 8.8 rebounds per game in the Heat, second only to Anthony Mason and higher than Mourning!

It was the Heat's turn to attack, and the ball was given to Grant again. This time he made a strong attack inside, but unfortunately the ball didn't go in. The rebound was clicked by Brown and flew into Wang Dalin's hands.

Wang Dalin's fake shot sent Owens flying, and the opponent's supplementary defense was already past the free throw line, and he raised his hand and was about to pull out.

The man who defended him was not some unknown person, he was the famous Ben Wallace!
Facing the defensive champion who won the 4th best defensive player in the future, Wang Dalin naturally didn't give a shit. He jumped up and didn't take a shot, but passed the ball to Grant very quickly.

Grant didn't pull his hips this time, and still made a layup under the interference of Mickey Moore.

"Boy, good pass!"

Grant smiled and gave Wang Dalin a high-five to celebrate, obviously in a good mood.

In the next attack, Wang Dalin sent another second pass to Mason, another high-five to celebrate.

In the time after the first quarter, Wang Dalin did not continue to show his "CIC pretty boy" side, but passed the ball to his teammates whenever he had a chance, and got 4 assists in a single quarter.

If it weren't for his teammates who often "spit cakes", he would have completed 5 assists in a single game in this quarter.

Of course, the teammates also reciprocated. When they competed for backcourt rebounds, they blocked Wang Dalin from time to time, allowing him to grab 3 rebounds.

In this way, after the first quarter, Wang Dalin scored 2 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, and his performance was quite impressive.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Heat adjusted the lineup, Grant and House went down, Jones and Davis went up.

There is no traditional point guard in this lineup, and Jones is the point guard.

The other positions are shooting guard Davis, small forward Mason, power forward Wang Dalin and center Brown.

Wang Dalin swayed to the position of power forward, directly facing Mickey Moore.

Many senior fans should know this player nicknamed "Snake Man".

The reason why he is still a bit famous is that he was considered a very different inside player at that time.

He is 213cm tall and weighs 102KG, a big insider, but his confrontation ability is very weak. The only thing he can do is his shooting.

Although his three-point ability is almost non-existent, he can shoot very accurately in the middle distance, and his shooting touch is very soft.

If he was born 20 years late, he should be able to do well in the small ball era. With his soft touch, there is no way he can't practice three-pointers!
It can be said that the current Wang Dalin is very similar to the "snake man" in terms of style, both are weak in confrontation and accurate in mid-range shooting, but Wang Dalin's passing is better than him, and the inside defense is also stronger.

Seeing Wang Dalin's thin body, the "snake man" thought he could snatch him in the paint, but ended up eating Wang Dalin's spicy Chongqing hot pot.

Young Master, I am a little skinny, but I have a 60 inside defense!
And I block 71 shots, you mere "snake man" dare to come and eat me?
Is it the courage Liang Jingru gave you?

This ball Wang Dalin also grabbed a defensive rebound and handed the ball to Jones. Jones dribbled the ball halfway and passed the ball to Davis who was eager to try.

After receiving the pass, Davis used a set of very beautiful dribbling moves to break through to the basket. Facing Big Ben's defense, his layup ended in an iron strike without accident.

Mason rushed to grab the offensive rebound, and then passed it to Jones who was outside the three-point line. Jones saw that the opponent player had rushed over, and without any greed, he immediately passed the ball to Wang Dalin in the corner.

Wang Dalin jumped high and hit the shot from six meters away.

"Good job, kid!" Jones came over and gave him a high-five to celebrate, "Don't be nervous, take a bold shot after receiving the ball, don't be afraid of missing the shot!"

In the first quarter just now, Wang Dalin was able to shoot by himself several times, but he always chose to pass the ball. Jones thought it was because he was nervous.

Little did they know...he was just trying to get a few assists first!

With Jones' encouragement, Wang Dalin made a lot of decisive shots in this quarter. Although he missed 3 shots, he also hit 2 shots.

加上之前的4分，他已经7投4中拿下了8分，外加6个篮板和5次助攻！
Although not as good as Jones, who scored 17 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the first half, he was the most eye-catching performer among the rest of the Heat.

After halftime, the Heat led by 58 points 46:12, and both offensive and defensive ends suppressed the Pistons terribly.

The Heat continued to dominate in the second half, and finally defeated the Pistons 107:92, winning the 2000 Summer League opener.

In the second half, Wang Dalin's shooting touch declined slightly. The main reason was that his physical energy consumption was a bit high in the fourth quarter. After all, he played a full 36 minutes in this game, and his 60 physical strength was still a bit insufficient.

不过全场他17中8，其中三分球2中1，加上罚球4中3，总共拿下20分11篮板10助攻，生涯首秀便拿到了三双！

Although this is only the summer league, Wang Dalin's performance is still good enough.

His teammates were full of praise for his performance, and Spoelstra was beaming with joy.
