Chapter 691 Triple-double in the first game, a super performance

Chapter 691 The first triple-double, a super performance

The training before the regular season was actually very boring.

The tactics of the Mavericks have been fixed. The small ball tactics and Princeton have incorporated part of the inside offense. In this case, what each player needs to do is relatively limited, and everyone must play with Qin Yang as the core.

James Ennis and PJ Tucker are okay. They are both role players and are used to playing. They just need to work on their running positions and screens. There is basically no problem.

The most troublesome is Nikola Jokic.Is Jokic strong?

It is really strong, but Jokic's weakness is obvious, the speed and strength are average in the interior, the defense is not very strong, barely above the level.

In addition, Jokic is not good at pick-and-roll and cover tactics. He prefers to attack with the ball personally, and then pass the ball to his teammates or attack by himself.

This is what superstars do.

It's a little embarrassing for Jokic to play superstar tactics.

A rookie needs the cooperation of the whole team tactically. Unless that person is Jordan or LeBron James, it is impossible for a rookie to receive such treatment.

Switch to other strong teams, maybe Jokic will be buried for a while.

But the Mavericks have a lot of tactical changes. An inside line that can support and open up space is of great help to the team.Therefore, during tactical training, Jokic received the attention of the team.

Even to a certain extent, Qin Yang had to give up the ball.

Because when Jokic and Qin Yang played pick-and-roll tactics, they cooperated very poorly.

Jokic is the kind of insider who can't play off the ball or pick and roll. This shortcoming makes it difficult for him to cooperate well with Qin Yang.

Although the game has not yet started, Jokic's appearance has given the team mixed feelings.

Coaching staff meeting.

Both Qin Yang and Nowitzki participated.

"About Jokic's issue, everyone needs to discuss how to arrange the substitute time!" Everyone in the Carlisle coaching team said.

But this meeting was mainly aimed at Qin Yang and Deke.

Inside the coaching staff, the discussion is almost over. If such a good seed is cultivated, it will be a proper inside superstar.

With Jokic here, the Mavericks' inside line will be stable in the next ten years.

That's why the coaching staff is so anxious.

Although a rookie is only 20 years old, he has already entered the league and has become the second support point in tactics, second only to superstar Qin Yang.

Dirk had no objection and acted very flatly:

"I have no opinion. Nikola's talent is outstanding. Train him well. Maybe after I retire in the future, the team will not lack insiders."

Dirk has won two more championships, and his mentality is already very peaceful.

Dirk has no other ideas but to enjoy the rest of his time with the Mavericks, stats?playing time?Team possession?None of this matters.

Dirk is a veteran of the locker room.

Qin Yang's opinion is a bit big:

"Nikola Jokic is indeed a good player, but the problem is that his tactical flaws are also obvious. If I were his opponent, it would be easy to target him, and...we may not be able to keep him."

"I suggest trying to develop Jokic, but don't be too arrogant."

Coach Carlisle was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

After the meeting ended, Dirk quietly grabbed Qin Yang and came to an empty place: "Bruce, to be honest, are you worried about your future team status?"

Qin Yang rolled his eyes at Dirk, with helplessness on his face:

"Dirk, do you think that in the current league, someone can compete with me for the team leader?"

"Forehead!"

Dirk froze and fell silent.

Qin Yang continued: "Actually, I don't think there is a problem with Jokic. It's just a matter of fact. His offense and support are very strong, but his defense is still lacking and he is easy to be targeted. Maybe in a weak team, if he has the ball, he can generate amazing statistics, but in Dallas, this doesn't make any sense."

"ok, I get it."

Dirk covered his face, a little depressed.

Qin Yang patted Dirk, turned and left.

it is more than words.

Dirk turned around and told Qin Yang's opinion to the coaching staff and the owner of the team, and the coaching staff and the owner breathed a sigh of relief.To be honest, Jokic is very good, but if he really wants to compare with Qin Yang, then the Mavericks will trade Jokic away without any suspense.

After all, any fool would know what to do with this choice.

But it's discussed within the team.

But tactically, Jokic has a high status.

Once Jokic is on the court, most of the time, he will become the master of the team's possession of the ball. He is 25 years old and has played in Europe for a long time. His skills and mentality are very mature, and he can almost seamlessly connect with the NBA.

In this case, the tactics of the Mavericks this year turned out to be a significant change.

10 month 28 number.

The Mavericks host the Suns.

This is the opening game of the new season, and the team wants to find a championship ring, so the whole home court is boiling.

The Mavericks with the ring in hand got a buff bonus, and the Suns who played in the first 5 minutes called a timeout.

The lead is simply too great.

Back from the timeout, the Mavericks also made substitutions.

Al Jefferson was replaced by Jokic, and Corey Brewer was replaced by PJ Tucker.

In this way, when the Mavericks attack, the team's tactics will change again.

After halftime, Qin Yang passed the ball directly to Jokic. Jokic stood still in the middle distance, took the ball and shot directly, and made a steady mid-range shot.

Jokic's shooting is quite good.

More than that, after that, Qin Yang and PJ Tucker covered, and Jokic made three consecutive assists, which directly overturned the Mavericks' home court.

Mavericks home commentary:

"It's unbelievable. After 5 minutes, he has scored 5 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds. This may be the scariest rookie performance in 10 years."

"Yes, Jokic is surprising, and what is even more surprising is that the Mavericks' tactics dare to play like this. With a rookie as the core of tactics, the Mavericks really dare to change!"

In the 10 minutes of the first quarter, Qin Yang came off.

When Qin Yang was on the court, although Jokic was the core of the team, Qin Yang's deterrence was too strong, and the ball power still involuntarily moved closer to Qin Yang.

In the first quarter, Qin Yang scored 16 points in a single quarter and made 8 of 7 shots. His efficiency was in a mess.

In addition, there are 3 rebounds and 1 steal, no assists.

The assists are all Jokic's data.

After Qin Yang left the field, there was no suspense that the core of the team was Jokic.

The rest of the team played with Jokic as the tactical core.

Rudy Gay, PJ Tucker, Seth Curry and others all played well, and more importantly, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, there was a loud cheer on the scene.

In the first game, Jokic played 33 minutes and scored a triple-double of 18 points, 10 assists and 11 rebounds.
