Chapter 24

The game continued. At the beginning of the second quarter, Wang Dalin remained on the field. Riley replaced several other substitutes, and replaced them with Grant, Mason, Jones and Hardaway.

In contrast, Riley still trusts the main players in the team more.

His dispatch of troops was also a last resort, because the Hornets switched to the starting lineup at the beginning of the second quarter, and only Mashburn, who played the first quarter, went to rest.

Eddie Robinson replaced Mashburn. In the last few minutes of the first quarter, he served as a power forward for a while. Wang Dalin scored 5 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block. The defensive end was poor.

Compared to Riley, Paul Silas, the head coach, obviously prefers to "fuck the main force". He likes to use Mashburn and PJ Brown in the third and fourth positions most.

Before this game, Derek Coleman was injured, Magloire became the only backup center, and Robinson could only be used as a top power forward in the second team.

After returning to the first team, Grant played center, Mason played power forward, and Wang Dalin swung to the small forward position, and then matched Robinson.

Robinson, who is 203cm tall, is undoubtedly heartbroken at this time, as disgusting as eating a fly.

"This Chinese kid... Where did the Heat find it? Damn it! I'm so tall that I have the nerve to say that I'm 206cm? You're 10cm taller than me, okay?"

Before the start of the season, the Heat reported Wang Dalin's height as "206 cm" to the NBA official information. There is no way... the Heat are not the only ones who lie about their height these days?
Speaking of which, Robinson averaged 16.6 minutes per game last season, averaging 7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. As a backup small forward, he performed very well.

Everyone should know that Robinson only entered the league in 1999. As an undrafted player, he performed better than most rookies in the same class.

However, Wang Dalin's undrafted pick is obviously a bit too strong.

Especially when the whole team feels bad, Wang Dalin still maintains a high offensive efficiency.

第二节王大林足足打了5分钟才被换下场，这一节他在侧翼中距离4投2中，外加罚球2投2中，又拿到了6分、2个篮板和1次助攻。

In this way, by the end of the first half, Wang Dalin had scored 11 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block, only 1 rebound away from Barkley's debut data.

TNT TV station.

Barkley's dark face showed a rare blush, and Smith laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"That's enough, Kenny!" Barkley said helplessly as if he was finally discouraged, "Okay, I admit that I was wrong this time, this rookie from China really played very well..."

"Don't...Charles, isn't he one rebound short? Don't give up so quickly, okay?"

"Damn it... you're so weak! Do I believe... that he couldn't even grab a single rebound for the entire halftime?"

"Okay, Charles! Now that you've conceded defeat, cash in your bet on the next live broadcast! Don't blame me, you said it yourself... remember to wear a pair of brightly colored underwear!"

"I……"

Of course, it was impossible for TNT TV to allow Barkley to engage in "topless performances" during the live broadcast, so both of them heard the warning from their superiors in their headphones.

The two had to "bargain" in front of the live broadcast camera. In the end, Smith said "magnanimously" that Barkley could wear a vest on his upper body during the live broadcast... Who is not an actor these days?
In the second half, Wang Dalin got more playing time, and his efficiency dropped slightly. Facing the high-intensity defense of the Hornets' main players, he scored only 6 of 2 shots.

不过热火队这场比赛只有格兰特17投10中，加上罚球15投13中高效砍下33分，其他人都打得稀烂……

梅森7投0中，琼斯13投4中，哈达威13投5中，卡特7投1中……

相比较之下王大林全场12投6中，其中三分球3投1中，罚球5投4中，拿到了17分、7个篮板、6次助攻和1次盖帽，成了全队表现第二好的球员。

In the original time and space, the Heat narrowly defeated the Hornets 79:83 in this game, but in this life, the Heat defeated the Hornets 88:82, mainly because of the addition of Wang Dalin in the team.

He played two consecutive games with excellent performance, maybe Wang Dalin and the Heat coaching staff didn't realize it, just unconsciously...he has become an indispensable and important force on the bench for the current Heat team.

The development of the matter is so sudden, perhaps it should be said that it is a matter of course.

After adding 6 points of CIC, Wang Dalin's comprehensive ability value has reached 77.

At present, his real combat power is naturally far from the league's top stars, but if he is compared with the substitute players of other teams, it seems... quite powerful!

On November 11, the Heat returned to home against the Philadelphia 5ers.

Wang Dalin finally met his idol in the previous life - Allen Iverson!
There are many short stars in NBA history who have been selected to the All-Star lineup, such as Tim Hardaway in the Heat this season, the retired "Smiling Assassin" Isiah Thomas, his namesake "The Strongest 175 on the Surface", and Chris Paul who was nicknamed "Sao Paulo" in later generations.

If you want to evaluate who is the strongest among them, everyone has their own opinion, but if you want to compare who is the most popular, it must be Allen Iverson!
In terms of honors in his career, he has 4 regular season scoring champions, 1 regular season MVP, and was selected to the All-Star team 11 times... "Smiling Assassin" is no worse than him in other aspects except that he has never won the scoring champion!
Compared with the "Smiling Assassin" who won two NBA championships, Iverson, not to mention winning the championship, even played in the finals only once... According to the history of the original time and space, it is this season.

Of course, everyone on the earth knows... Facing the Lakers with the "OK combination", the Philadelphia 76ers led by Iverson lost 1:4 in the finals.

Putting it on other people, the big score of 1:4 in the finals can be said to be a "big defeat", but putting it on Iverson becomes "a glorious defeat"!
Facing such a powerful Lakers team, the 76ers were able to win a victory, and Iverson scored 48 points, 6 assists and 5 steals in that game... What is it if it is not "a glorious defeat"?
No bragging, Allen Iverson was indeed very powerful at his peak, and even after Kobe retired, he once said: "Young people today, you don't even know how powerful Iverson was back then!"

This season, the Philadelphia 76ers have introduced Dikembe Mutombo, the "Mountain of Africa", plus Theo Ratliff, the shot-blocking champion, and Eric Snow, the perimeter defender. Their strength has improved significantly compared to last season.

In addition, although their head coach Larry Brown has long been criticized by later generations of fans, who believe that he abolished the "Serbian genius" Milicic, but when it comes to training the team's defense, there are no more than five head coaches who can be compared with this old man in history... probably!

So, amidst the deafening cheers from the fans at the "American Airlines Center", this back-to-back regular season began...
