Johnson ushered in a victory in his first game coaching the Mavericks.

And the opponent they defeated was the second-ranked Nets in the Eastern Conference.

This debut can be described as full marks.

The only regret is probably that the fans at the scene did not eat burritos.

……

Anna's condition was still very dangerous, the old Nelson did not come back for a while, and Johnson continued his coaching career with the Mavericks.

Capture the Eagles, break the Pistons, defeat the 76ers, and kill the Hornets.

Johnson gave the Mavericks a wave of 5 consecutive victories in the All-Star Game!

This is a strong start.

This is the same as Luke Wharton's temporary command of the Warriors in history, operating with a full-scale show and showing everyone's face.

Moreover, just like Walton created the dead five, Johnson brought the Mavericks defensive tactics that the old Nelson did not have.

"The Dallasites are ready for a championship."

After the game, ESPN used such comments to describe the game.

Even the absence of Nelson can't prevent the Mavericks from continuing to win, then this team is really superior.

However, under the winning streak, there are still some problems within the Mavericks.

The point of the problem is that Nowitzki was worried about Dampier.

When Nowitzki and Sun Hao were chatting, Sun Hao said that Dampier's substitute was only temporary.

But it turned out not to be like that.

After taking down the Nets, Johnson seemed happy with Nowitzki's lineup at center.

And the subsequent winning streak made him very sure of this.

As a result, Dampier, the center who was acquired in the Nash trade this summer to deal with O'Neal, has seen his playing time plummet.

"I don't know what the team is thinking, if they just put me on the bench, what's the point of trading me to Dallas?"

After the game against the Hornets, Dampier, who only played 8 minutes, finally broke out. He said such words in front of the media.

This is also the first time in the season, the Mavericks broke out this kind of internal disharmony.

Dampier's character is one aspect, but Johnson so compressed his playing time, it is not very good.

After this dissonant voice appeared, the Mavericks then lost the game against the Pacers.

After Dirk Nowitzki fell into a situation where he was fighting inside with O'Neal, his performance was obviously abnormal.

In fact, although the Mavericks have been winning streak, but Nowitzki's overall data is down.

A very simple reason, when playing the fourth position, Nowitzki can take advantage of Dampier's cover to come out and catch the ball.

That's been one of his main ways of scoring in the past.

But after playing center, he is unlikely to let Bodi Loga help him block a center like O'Neal, and there is a high probability that Bodi Loga will not be able to stop him.

In other words, Nowitzki's scoring methods in the fifth position are obviously less than those in the fourth position.

As a result, the Mavericks' five-game winning streak was ended by the Pacers.

The Mavericks are now receiving unprecedented media attention. After the game, Kenny Smith also expressed his views on TNT's program.

"You can't let Dirk play the fifth position all the time. He can't compete with O'Neal, let alone Shaq."

Smith's suggestion is on point, and that's why Cuban didn't hesitate to send Nash to Dampier in the deal.

But Johnson, still did not make adjustments to the lineup.

Then, in the Mavericks' game against the Magic, they won again.

Nowitzki appeared more in the mid-to-long distance position, but Gooden couldn't get out, and was cast to death by Nowitzki.

That's Johnson's tweak, and it's proven to work.

When the reporter interviewed after the game, Johnson also straightened his waist again.

"We don't need to fight against them. I think our opponents have to consider how to defend Dirk. Dirk can attack from the inside or pull out their big men. This will make the opponent fall into a difficult choice."

This sentence was Johnson's explanation, but it also caused an uproar.

If you use one word to describe it, Rashomon is perfect.

Because you feel like Kenny Smith hit the nail on the head, but Johnson seems to be right.

There's never just one way to win in basketball, and no one knows if it's right or wrong until the season is over.

But one thing is certain, Dampier's dissatisfaction is getting stronger.

This looks like a ticking time bomb for the Mavericks.

Just when Dallas fans were getting more and more worried, the good news finally came.

Anna's condition has eased a lot, and old Nelson is back.

ps: I don't know what's wrong with me, and the hospital can't find anything, just dizziness, the same as last time, hey!

Chapter 278 Teammates become opponents, fall in love and kill each other (updated to ,)

The first thing old Nelson did after he came back was to find Dampier and calm him down.

Then in the next game against the Spurs, Dampier returned to the starting lineup and played 26 minutes.

That's his average minutes per game this season.

The signal conveyed here is self-evident that the old Nelson has completely given up on Johnson's set.

Johnson's "Rashomon" also quickly drew a terminator.

And the fans seem to have figured it out, since they can win, it is obviously better for old Nelson to avoid internal turmoil.

Johnson's short coaching journey has come to an end, but after the return of the old Nelson, he is still the team's assistant coach.

The middle episode did not affect his status in the Mavericks.

After all, apart from Dampier, no one else has any opinions, and even the data of Sun Hao and Bodi Loga are still going up.

As for Nowitzki, when Kenny Smith questioned Johnson before, he stood up to defend Johnson.

"No matter what starting lineup we use, we should play better."

No way, Nowitzki is so good.

But it was precisely because Nowitzki did this that the second thing Nelson did after returning was to increase Nowitzki's shot rights.

Old Nelson has coached the NBA for so many years. Although he has a bad temper, he still understands these ways of the world.

You can't wrong the core of the team without giving him some compensation.

The rest of the Mavericks were fine with it, too.

And in fact, everyone knows that this is likely to be the season when Nowitzki hits the MVP.

Such a change did not affect the progress of the Mavericks, and the team continued to make great strides.

So in the end, it was more of a blip in the Mavericks' season.

Nelson Sr. is back, and the interlude is over, and it doesn't look like it will have any impact on the Mavericks.

Business as usual, the season continues.

Time flies, and it is early April in a blink of an eye.

The regular season of the 2002~2003 season came to an end.

Unlike the previous seasons where they used frequent tricks in order to rank in the playoffs at the last moment, this season seems to be much calmer.

In the East, the Wizards ranked first with a record of 50 wins and 32 losses.

The 50-win Eastern Conference is the first in the history of the NBA's non-shortened season.

On the one hand, this shows that the overall strength of the Eastern Conference is not strong this season, and on the other hand, it also shows that the strengths of several Eastern Conference teams are very close.

The Nets ranked second with 49 wins.

Kidd's pre-season 720-degree turn speech was finally successfully rehearsed, and their record...is exactly the same as last season.

The Pacers ranked third with 48 wins. With tough defense and rising strength, they are opponents that no one in the East wants to encounter in the playoffs.

The Celtics also have a record of 48 wins, but they rank fourth because of their win-loss relationship with the Pacers.

The 76ers rank fifth with 47 wins.

The fight with the Lakers in the Finals two years ago is still vivid, but two years later, Iverson and his 76ers have changed beyond recognition.

Many players from the former team, including Dikembe Mutombo, have left the team.

In this 76ers team, Iverson still averages 27.6 points per game. In addition to him, the second leader of the team is Keith Van Horn, the second pick of the season who once had a moment with Duncan in 1997.

Van Horn is known as "Bird's successor". He can swing from the second position to the fourth position. He is quite versatile and performed very well in the first few seasons before entering the league.

However, he suffered an injury attack after that and his state declined, and now he is mediocre in the 76ers.

This position means that they have to play against the defending champion of the Eastern Conference last season, and the team's prospects are not optimistic.

The Hornets also ranked sixth with 47 wins.

The Pistons rank seventh with 46 wins.

The Magic won 43 wins, and the Bucks beat the 42-win Bucks to get a playoff spot.

First-round matchups here in the East:

Wizards VS Magic, Jordan and McGrady, one of his hand-picked successors, Yao Ming and McGrady, this group of duels is full of topics;

Nets VS Pistons, the head-to-head confrontation between the two defensive teams;

Pacers VS Hornets;

Celtics VS 76ers;

In the West, the Mavericks have the best record in history, 62 wins and 20 losses.

Well, the history of the Mavericks is a bit weak.

But also because of its weakness, what Dallas fans see is the strongest Mavericks ever.

And, their strongest trio.

诺维茨基在生涯第五年打出26.6分9.7篮板3助攻的MVP级数据，投篮命中率高达48%，三分球命中率达到40%。

There is no doubt that this is the pinnacle of Nowitzki's career so far.

In the third year of his career, Sun Hao averaged 23.8 points, 5.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game, shooting 45.9% from the field and 42% from three-pointers.

The data of the two has revealed the potential of the previous OK combination.

Also, they have Bodi Loga.

博迪洛加场均15.6分5.7板5.4助攻，投篮命中率50%，三年球35%。

Together, the three averaged 66 points and 14.2 assists per game!

Dallas show.time trio, worthy of the name!

All these have made Dallas fans have unlimited expectations for the team's performance in this year's playoffs.

The Kings are second in the Western Conference with 59 wins.

Adelman's Preston system is still turbulent, and no one dares to underestimate the team that can fight the Lakers in seven games.

The Spurs are third in the West with 60 wins.

Q: Why do the Spurs have the better record but only come in third?

Answer: According to the existing ranking rules, the champion of the competition area is automatically ranked the top two in the division.
