I'm really good at shooting.

As the name suggests, it has buck teeth and a protruding forehead, and its ugly appearance is still fresh in people's memory.

But being able to be called out and known by others shows that they have other advantages, and that is their strength.

The two entered the rotation in the first year of entering the Mavericks in history, and they also started many games, averaging close to 10 points per game.

The key to this kind of strength is immediate combat power, which is what the Mavericks lack most now.

It is not surprising to have such a performance in the preseason.

But the fans don't know, especially the fans of the Mavericks. After watching it, they are already full of confidence in the team's defense in the new season.

At the end of the game, the Mavericks defeated the Bulls 101 to 96 and won the first China game.

In the second half, the Mavericks played off the bench, but the main force of the Bulls didn't rest until halfway through the fourth quarter.

最后的技术统计，弗朗西斯得到全队最高的27分，易建联有20分9板的出色数据，杰伦罗斯12分3板4助攻。

Yi Jianlian's performance was much better than the 5+5 he said, and even exceeded Sun Hao's 15+10 expectations!

It's amazing!

For the Mavericks, Sun Hao and Nowitzki only played halftime and scored 15 and 11 points respectively. Josh Howard scored a team-high 19 points.

After the game, Francis on the side of the Bulls accepted an interview with Zhang Weiping on the sidelines.

In China, the most frequently asked questions are naturally the questions of Chinese players.

Sun Hao's strength, Yi Jianlian's performance, and the brief conflict in the game...

Zhang Weidong asked all of them, and they were all the fans wanted to hear.

"He is like my younger brother in the team. Who wouldn't stand up for my younger brother?"

Francis was also quite direct when it came to that brief confrontation.

It can also be seen from his words that Yi Jianlian gets along well with his teammates in the Bulls not only well, but quite well.

This also made Chinese fans more at ease.

After the end of the first game of the China game, the two teams will then move to the capital, where they will start the second game of the China game.

The home and away games there will change and become the home of the Mavericks, where fans can experience the Mavericks' home ceremony.

Because Sun Hao has played in Dallas for three years, it is quite familiar to the fans.

But just before heading to the capital, Gu Yi found Sun Hao and told him one thing.

"NBA2K" series, I hope he can become the spokesperson of 2K3.

Don't be surprised, at this time, 2K has only been released for less than 4 years, and its influence is not as good as that of its biggest competitor, the NBA.LIVE series.

After all, LIVE came out as early as 1995, and 2K was not released until 1999.

It is very necessary for them to choose an influential spokesperson at this time.

You must know that in terms of the previous spokesperson, the difference between the two games is relatively large.

LIVE is more diverse. O'Neal, Duncan, and Garnett have all endorsed.

The spokesperson of LIVE2003 found Kidd. Although the Nets did not reach the Finals last season, Kidd led the team to the Eastern Conference Finals. It is also a standard single-core and extremely popular.

In contrast, 2K is even more simple, and has been looking for Iverson to endorse, long-term meal tickets.

So it's not surprising to find Sun Hao at this time.

In terms of strength, although Sun Hao is not yet the strongest in the league, he was the FMVP of last season and the best performer in the playoffs.

Of course, popularity is more important than strength.

Because of his strong Chinese background, Sun Hao's global popularity may already be second only to Jordan.

This is what 2K wants most.

Games Games, like sneakers, sell for their popularity!

Adidas will give Sun Hao a 7-year 1.2 million contract, and 2K is of course eager for it.

"Well, what is my 2K value in the game?"

Sun Hao couldn't help asking one more question.

Although he is not the kind of person who regards 2K ability as the motivation to play in the future like Whiteside, but this kind of thing is definitely something that everyone will be curious about.

Gu Yi was still smart, he seemed to have guessed that Sun Hao would ask this question, and he had already asked it in advance.

"95, 1 point more than Iverson."

What the hell!

Sun Hao was taken aback when he heard this value.

2K's operator really...don't want Bilian.

In order to make him a spokesperson, the rating is obviously inflated.

However, this is also a characteristic of 2K in this era, and the scoring is relatively random.

Like 2K2, even O'Neill was given... 100 points.

Although O'Neal is at his peak, this 100 points has no room for improvement and is unique.

I also realized this after 2K, and I was a little restrained, and the highest was 99.

Like in 2K3, referring to the performance of the players last season, the highest score is still O'Neal, but the overall score is only 98.

Others, Duncan, Kobe, McGrady are all 97 points, and then Nowitzki's 96 points.

Sun Hao and Garnett have the same score, 95.

After Sun Hao knew about these situations, he readily agreed to speak for him.

This thing is sure to make money.

There is no harm in acting as an endorsement other than making money, so can he lose a hair?

Chapter 323 Season kicks off, Mavericks vs. Nuggets!

The China game in the capital station attracted more attention than the Guangzhou station, and the competition was more intense than the Guangzhou station.

The Mavericks' bench showed instability in Game [-].

After the whole game, Howard and Daniels only scored 10 points together.

This is also a reasonable thing.

No matter how good Howard and Daniels are, their stability cannot be compared with Bodi Loga and old Curry.

This is also a problem that Johnson needs to solve in the new season.

The good news is that this is only preseason, and there is still a long season for him to adjust.

But in this kind of game, Yi Jianlian once again performed amazingly, and he scored 17 points and 7 rebounds again!

Although it was only a preseason match, the performance in these two games was already completely worthy of being the No. 5 pick of the Platinum Generation.

After the China game, both teams returned to the United States to continue their preseason journey.

Although the changes in the lineup made the team's stability slightly worse than last season, the Mavericks' strength in the preseason is still very strong.

In contrast, the performance of the Lakers F4 has some ups and downs.

Especially Kobe, and that feud between Kobe and O'Neal.

This past summer has been extremely difficult for Kobe.

He was approved for arrest, and then he denied the crime in court, and then his wife Vasani had a miscarriage, but she still stood by him and unswervingly supported him.

Until now, the Eagle County incident has not ended, and he has to cooperate with the investigation basically every other day, so one can imagine his personal state.

And the phrase "Shaq did it too" that he said in the summer made him and O'Neal completely break.

It was just an OK combination that seemed to fit together before, but this season has basically had zero communication.

This situation also made the outside world re-examine the strength of the Lakers and the possibility of the Mavericks defending the title.

It is even impossible to predict who will win the championship this season.

This is definitely the most intricate season of the decade.

In this context, the curtain of the NBA2003~2004 season kicked off.

The Mavericks opener against... the Nuggets.

Stern's schedule will definitely not let fans down.

After James said in the draft that he wanted to challenge Sun Hao, the schedule has already been arranged.

Coupled with the huge contracts signed by James, Nike, Sun Hao and Adidas in the summer, No. 23 vs. No. 95 has become a match that fans have been looking forward to.

There is no such thing as step-by-step, and the most exciting one will be arranged for you at the beginning of the competition!

This game, according to ESPN's "You Most Want to Watch Opener" survey, got a full 80% of the votes.

The much-anticipated game.

Here I want to mention the operation of the Nuggets this summer.

In this year in history, the Nuggets signed the former Clippers "Karen Karen" Andre Miller in the free market and used him to partner with Anthony.

Anthony is a scorer, coupled with Miller as a passer, the two are very compatible, and they also made the playoffs this year in history.

But now history has changed, Miller also failed to come to the Nuggets.

The reason is also very simple. James' technical characteristics are completely different from Anthony's. One is good at rushing and the other is good at shooting. The management will naturally consider it when signing people.

The Nuggets' current choice is to use a three-year, 3 million contract to recruit Jason Terry from the former Eagles.

Terry averaged 17.2 points and 7.4 assists per game for the Hawks last season, but his shooting percentage was only 42.8%. He is not an efficient guard.

Coupled with his height of only 1 meters but his playing style of shooting guard, he encountered difficulties when he renewed his contract with the Eagles in the summer.

The Eagles were only willing to give out a three-year, $3 million contract, and in the end the Nuggets signed him with a slightly more lucrative contract.

The Nuggets have the same motivation for signing Miller in history.

What they fancy is Terry's three-point shooting rate of close to 40% in the past three seasons, and an average production of 2 per game.

Such an outside scorer obviously matches James very well.

As for the organization, Terry is just partial to scoring, and James can fully share this burden.

In addition to Terry, the management also signed the original veteran player Wash Leonard.

This person is also a three-point shooter, and he participated in the three-point contest and won the championship this year in history.

It can be said that compared with the management of the Cavaliers in the same period in history, the ability of the Nuggets is definitely a level better.

This also makes the Nuggets Zhan look taller than the Cavaliers Zhan.

That night, the National Airline Center was already full of seats early.

Aside from the much-watched game itself, tonight is a special day for Dallas fans.

Because the opening game is also the night when the defending champion presents the championship ring and raises the championship banner!

"Sun, here comes your challenger."

When the locker room was getting ready, Nowitzki said with a smile while rubbing the skin of his feet.

"It's a pity that Dejan went back to Europe."

Sun Hao didn't seem to care too much, but felt a little regretful that Bodi Loga and James couldn't take the top position.

Speaking of which, the two play styles are really similar.

Nowitzki laughed after listening.

Sun Hao's mentality really couldn't be more stable.

By the time the Mavericks players came out of the tunnel, the fans had already stood up and applauded.

Although more than four months have passed since winning the championship, the night of the championship is still like yesterday, and that glory has always been in my heart.

James looked up at this moment to look at the atmosphere around him.
