Nba: Load Doncic Template After Being Banned

After scoring 42 points against the Rockets, Wang Zhi ushered in two relatively sluggish performances.

In the home game against the Jazz, although the Mavericks won, Wang Zhi only made 4 of 11 shots and only scored 14 points with 5 of 7 free throws.

At home against the Nuggets, Wang Zhi had 11 points and 4 rebounds. The Mavericks felt sluggish as a whole and lost in their "devil's home court" rarely.

...

Of course, this situation is not surprising.

In the NBA, the performance of all players who rely on shooting is inseparable from the feel of their hands.

Unlike the main basket, the mid-range and long-range shooting, the hit rate of 50% is already good.

And it's not surprising that the hit rate is 40% or even less than 30% on nights when the hand feels bad.

It is not surprising that the Mavericks, a team whose main offense relies on mid-range and long-range shooting, has a severely polarized game performance.

As for Wang Zhi, his offense so far has also been dominated by shooting.

...

When he was playing against the Rockets, he felt overwhelming, no matter how he shot, it was as if he was on the hook. The Rockets' defense was sealed to the face, but he was still able to make shots!

Here is the performance that feels hot to the extreme.

No one can guarantee that every night is so accurate, so the next two games, the decline in hand feeling is also reasonable.

...

In short, although Wang Zhi failed to score in two consecutive games, his performance on the court is not a problem. He got a chance, but he just couldn't make it.

Everyone knows that the Mavericks and Wang Zhi can't be inaccurate all the time.

Therefore, one or two losses, and there is no fuss.

...

However, the Mavericks' next schedule is not easy at all.

They will start a road trip in the West.

The first two games of this road trip were very difficult, not only two back-to-back games, but also two consecutive nights to challenge the Clippers and the Lakers.

Although the strength of the Clippers is not strong, it should not be a problem for the Mavericks to win them.

But in the second back-to-back game, they have to face the Lakers who have just completed three consecutive championships and established a dynasty!

How strong is the Lakers in the OK combination? Naturally, there is no need to spend too much ink.

At the beginning of this season, due to O'Neal's injury, the Lakers led by Kobe alone did not have a good record, but recently, O'Neal has announced his return from injury.

That is to say, the Lakers facing the Mavericks will be the complete Lakers.

...

The players are full of confidence, they are not afraid of any opponent.

But the coaching staff, in private, has already begun to prepare a combat strategy: take the Clippers with all their strength, and if they beat the Lakers, they probably won't be able to beat them. At that time, let some major players take turns.

...

Yes, that's right, the Mavericks' coaching staff has begun to give in.

I think the odds of winning an away game against the Lakers are too low, and it seems that I have given up winning.

However, this kind of "recognition of counsel" also has its reasons.

As we all know, the NBA regular season schedule is quite dense, and the entire season is very long.

In four and a half months, each NBA team has to play 82 regular season games. Perhaps in the eyes of the audience, it seems that it is nothing to finish a game.

But in fact, the intensity is not low, and players will consume a lot of energy to play a regular season.

Especially in the back-to-back matches of two games in two days, the physical fitness test of the players will be stretched to the limit!

...

A very important issue is that when a player has a large amount of physical loss, the chance of injury will also be greatly increased.

Therefore, when NBA teams face back-to-back games, they usually choose to let some players who play a lot of time or have potential injuries take turns.

...

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with the arrangement of the Mavericks coaching staff.

After all, in the long regular season, maintaining health is the most important factor in maintaining a stable record.

Sometimes it is necessary to selectively give up one or two games.

...

Of course, there is no need to let the players know about this kind of thing in advance.

Although the Mavericks lost a home game recently, it does not affect their ranking in the first echelon of the Western Conference this season.

Coupled with the growth of players like Nowitzki and Nash, as well as the emergence of Wang Zhi, this team seems to be still evolving.

The start of this Western Conference road trip was to challenge the two teams in Los Angeles for two consecutive nights.

For such a schedule, the players were very enthusiastic in training. They shouted: "Just use the Clippers to practice, let us get back to the winning track, and then go all out to challenge the three-peat Lakers!"

As the saying goes, "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers", this young Mavericks team is full of passionate challenges to the league's kings, the Lakers, so why should they be afraid?

...

However, before the Mavericks challenge the two teams in Los Angeles, the Rockets will challenge the Lakers one day earlier.

For Dragon Country fans, this is another game worth looking forward to.

Obviously, what they are concerned about is the duel between Dayao and the league's No. 1 center O'Neal.
