NBA World Mall

Chapter 81 The Best Rookie

Until the end of the game, Li Tuanjie did not get another chance to play, which made Li Tuanjie feel a little disappointed.

For the current Li Tuanjie, the appearance time represents the opportunity to get more trading points, and the trading points are undoubtedly crucial to Li Tuanjie right now!

13 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists added 12.5 trading points to Li Tuanjie, making Li Tuanjie's current total trading points immediately reach fifty.

"Fifty trading points, and it's still far away from the goal of 1,000 trading points given by Brother Big Zhi. With such a small amount of trading points in the system mall, even the cheapest attribute pill can only be bought for half a piece..."

"Let's look forward to the regular season. At that time, the speed of obtaining trading points is twice that of the current preseason. In the first game of the regular season, the system will issue tasks, and if I complete various first achievements in my career, You can also get some benefits!" Li Tuan thought silently in his heart.

For Li Tuanjie, the benefits of the preseason are not very high. It is at the tasteless level. The real highlight is still in the regular season and playoffs!

"I might have scored 20 points in this game, but Bowen ruined this opportunity. It's a pity!"

Li Tuanjie scored 13 points in more than 10 minutes of playing. If he can get enough playing time in this game, scoring 20 points is definitely not a problem!

If an NBA player can score 20 points in a single game, he is considered a very good player. If he can maintain an average of 20 points per game? That's a quasi-all-star player!

...

In the first three games of the preseason, Li Tuanjie's performance was astonishing. His average playing time was the least among all lottery picks, but his scoring average ranked third among rookies in this class. A few experts in the basketball circle said that the Mavericks really got a big deal this time!

Currently, in the first three preseason games, No. 1 pick Bargnani has the highest scoring average per game. He ranks first among rookies with an average of 15.6 points per game. The second-ranked pick is Adam Morrison of the Lynx Bobcats. Average 15.2 points!

As Jordan's pick, Adam Morrison is actually not favored by others, mainly because he suffers from diabetes, which is too much of a health threat to his career, but the offensive power he showed in the NCAA is real. Powerful, Jordan finally resisted all opinions and chose Adam Morrison with the No. 3 pick in his hand...

In the last few preseason games, Adam Morrison's performance can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. Although the scoring data ranks second among the rookies in this class, it is not much less than the No. 1 pick Bargnani's average points per game, but the shooting rate is quite embarrassing. , with an average shooting percentage of only 38% per game...

The third place in points per game is Li Tuanle, with an average of 13.3 points per game. Compared with the top two, it may seem a little less, but the shooting rate is very good. The total shooting rate has reached 50%, which is extremely rare among rookies. A 35% hit rate is still acceptable.

Considering that Li Tuan's average playing time is much less than the top two players...

From a comprehensive point of view, Li Tuanjie can even be said to be the best performer among the current rookies!

The Mavericks paid for the 29th pick in the first round plus Bagna and some cash in exchange for Li Tuanjie's signing rights. Now it seems that it is definitely a big profit!

Making money makes the Utah Jazz feel regretful now...

As for the Rockets, they didn't intend to choose Li Tuanjie with the No. 8 overall pick, so there is no such thing as no regrets later, and Rudy Gay, their No. 8 pick, was also directly traded to the Grizzlies. Come on guard Shane Battier...

...

In the next few preseason games, Li Tuanjie also got the chance to play, but unfortunately, he still didn't have much playing time. The average playing time of more than ten minutes per game made Li Tuanjie a little anxious...

Even during training, he seemed a little preoccupied. Nowitzki, as someone who has experienced it, naturally understands what Li Tuanjie is worried about...

"Unity? Are you worried about playing time?" Nowitzki asked with a smile.

Li Tuan nodded. There is no need to hide this kind of thing. It would be too hypocritical if he denied it.

"Brother, are you saying that my performance is not good enough to meet the requirements of Coach Johnson?" After several months of getting along, the relationship between Li Tuanjie and Nowitzki got along very well. The doubts in my heart were expressed.

Hearing this, Nowitzki was immediately happy, "Haha, Unity, do you really think that your performance is not good enough? You don't have to be humble with my brother, I know this is not what you mean!"

Li Tuanxi scratched his head in embarrassment, "Well, I think my performance on the field is not bad..."

"Yes! It's more than possible. To be honest, Li Tuan, with your current strength, if you put it in some big teams, you may be able to cultivate it as the core of the team in the future!"

"However, you also know that our Mavericks are not fishy. There are quite a lot of high-level players in the team, especially your brother and I are currently in the peak period, and our style of play is very similar to yours. In this case, You should know that it is difficult for our management to give you a higher tactical status." Nowitzki's words were almost heartfelt, and he did not hide the slightest bit from Li Tuanjie.

Li Tuanjie nodded. He understands what Nowitzki said. In fact, Li Tuanjie does not currently have such great ambitions to "seek to usurp the throne" and seize Nowitzki's core position. He knows that is completely a dream The idea, his goal is very simple, is to get more playing time.

"Don't worry, boy, let me tell you why you played less time in the preseason!" Nowitzki said with a smile.

Li Tuanjie suddenly became interested. This is the question he most wants to get answered at present!

"Congratulations, you may become the main player of the team in Johnson's eyes. As you know, the main players generally don't play too much time in the preseason, such as Stackhouse, who is the main player in the substitute lineup. , The average playing time in these preseason games is only six or seven minutes per game..."

"Johnson didn't give you too much playing time. It must be to let you accumulate physical fitness and use you well in the regular season!"

"Of course, this is just my personal understanding. I'm afraid only Johnson knows what the situation is! Haha!"

Hearing this, Li Tuanjie's originally depressed mood immediately relaxed. Nowitzki was right, this may be the only explanation for his lack of appearance time!

The current preseason stage is over, and the regular season will officially start in two days!
