NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 109 Dallas

Since the start of the game, well-known players in the 09 class have completed their contract renewals on the rookie renewal deadline.

James Harden, who was traded to Houston, also reached an early renewal contract with the new team for a five-year maximum salary worth 5 million, which will be implemented in the 7850-13 season.

The most lucrative one is of course No. 5 pick Blake Griffin. In the first two seasons, Griffin had an All-Star start and an All-NBA Second Team. According to the "Ross Clause" added to the new collective bargaining agreement, White Warcraft and the team reached an early renewal contract with a maximum salary of 9500 million for five years.

If he can continue to be selected for the All-Star starter or the final lineup next season, then he will start to implement this super-maximum salary contract after the rookie contract that Harden will drool and Curry will cry when he sees it in the 13-14 season.

……

After a big home victory over the visiting Pacers in the East, the Bobcats players boarded the plane to the West without stopping in the night.

Just after the first game of his NBA career, Chen Xiao is about to experience the back-to-back tradition of professional leagues.

Destination, Dallas, Texas.

It is really interesting to say that the league arranges the game. In the first game against the Pacers, Bobcats guard DJ Augustin went behind the Pacers last season to face the old owner, and now the Bobcats are playing the Mavericks. It is the old center Haywood who is fighting the old owner.

In the darkness of night, a Boeing 757 with DELTA on it landed smoothly at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.

When Shan Mao and his group arrived at the hotel where they were staying, Chen Xiao saw 4:36 displayed on the floor clock in the hotel lobby.

At this time, the game at 8:30 pm was less than 16 hours away.

……

"Did you sleep well?" Chen Xiao asked on the way to the American Airlines Arena, seeing Kemba Walker's tired face.

Yeah, Walker replied, yawning.

It seems that Walker, who scored 30 points for the first time in his career, is a little excited, and it is reasonable to have a bad rest.

Similarly, Chen Xiao was not in his best condition, and when he asked Walker, he himself felt a little drowsy.

After all, Walker has created a new career high, and Chen Xiao's first show is also a new high. Although he has heard too much praise, he can't stand the fact that he is at a different level, brings a different sense of freshness, and others boast in various ways.

What's more, it is not easy for giants who have experienced back-to-back for the first time to have a good rest.

……

The starting lineup for the Bobcats is still the five players from the previous game.

Due to the absence of Nowitzki due to injury, the Mavericks lined up the inside combination of Sean Marion and Chris Kaman, and the old captain Brand was on standby off the court.

This game is the Mavericks' first home game of the season. The Mavericks, who lost away to Salt Lake City in the previous game, are ready to take the Bobcats to celebrate the new season's home flag.

Before the game, let the fans enjoy the game as Marion addressed the new season in the center of the arena.Chen Xiao was a little surprised. Nowitzki shouldn't be doing this job. Could it be that King Yinjiao's English is not good enough, and he is afraid that the audience won't understand?

After playing 8 minutes in the first quarter, Chen Xiao took a rest. At this time, the score was 10:14, and the Bobcats were 4 points behind.

As soon as we got off the field, we saw a UFO take off.

Vince Carter, who has come to the Mavericks for the second season, received a point from Mayo. With an excellent three-point threat, Walker, who was not so obvious to be deceived by Buddha, jumped three feet high.

Carter stepped forward and rushed to the basket at a 45-degree angle. Facing the complementary defense of Bobcats center Biyombo at this time, it was like a glider flying high above the defender's raised arms and bombing the basket.

The 35-year-old Carter chatted about being a teenager, proving that he can still soar in the sky.

At this time, Chen Xiao, who was on the bench, felt his blood boil, not because of the beauty and difficulty of the dunk, but because of whether he could prevent the UFO from taking off and landing this time if he was on the court.Regardless of whether it is possible or not, as the last line of defense at the basket, Chen Xiao will also make the same choice as Biyombo.

At the end of the first quarter, when Biyombo walked back to the bench with his head down, Chen Xiao grabbed his shoulder and said, "You did a good job. Even I may not be able to stop Carter's attack. Keep working hard, Biss."

Hearing Chen Xiao's bragging relief, Biyombo and other teammates didn't feel the slightest difference, but were a little moved.Chen Xiao, who was invincible in protecting the frame during team training, naturally no team member would question whether his words were a bit arrogant, even in the face of UFOs.

Although Biyombo was a rookie in 11 years and was one year older than Chen Xiao, Biyombo, who was aged in August 92, was only one month older than Chen Xiao.The No. 8 pick, who had a poor rookie year, needs more help.

Four minutes after Chen Xiao left the field, the Mavericks beat the Bobcats 4:17. At the end of the first quarter, the Bobcats were already behind by double digits.

With 7 minutes left in the second quarter, Chen Xiao faced Kaman's defense in the low post.

In more than one quarter of the confrontation, Kaman, who was over 30 years old at this time, could feel his slow pace.But the weight and strength are still here, Chen Xiao didn't choose to be a strong opponent, he turned his back twice, quickly turned around, grabbed half of his body, immediately turned around and succeeded in turning his body back to the basket.

After the attack worked, as the finishing blow of the 19:6 offensive climax, the Bobcats took the lead for the first time in this field, with a score of 38:37.

In the next half quarter, Carter made a fast-break layup from Walker with a big cap, and Darren Collison hit a three-pointer at the buzzer before halftime. At the end of the halftime, the Mavericks still kept the point difference at 8 points.

And this is just the beginning. The Bobcats, who were in a sluggish overall state in the second half, obviously couldn't resist the wave after wave of offensive attacks.

The third quarter was okay, although OJ Mayo scored 3 points with 11 three-pointers in a single quarter, and Kaman scored 3 points with 6 mid-range shots in a single quarter.But relying on Chen Xiao's inside attack and Mullens' long-range shooting, the point difference remained within 10 points.

But at the end of the quarter, three minutes before switching to the main force, Carter and Claude's three-pointers made the Mavericks hit another 3:12 spurt. Under this, the Bobcats in an away game swallowed their first defeat of the season.

The Bobcats lost to Dallas 108-121 on the road.

Walker, who scored 30 points in the previous game, continued the touch of the previous game, but it was the touch of the fourth quarter. With poor touch and poor physical condition, his desire to shoot was mediocre. He only scored 10 points on 3 of 10 shots. He continued to be the background wall of veteran Carter and lost serious points.

而对面的OJ·梅奥用10中7的三分总计17中10的投篮命中轰下30分，仿佛和沃克是一种循环。

除了梅奥外，达伦·科里森12中8，卡特12中7均得到18分。

In this game, Chen Xiao was a little quiet after his performance in the last game. In 32 minutes, he made 13 of 7 shots, scored 18 points, 13 rebounds and 2 blocks, barely surpassing the halftime statistics against the Pacers.
