Although Tristotes is also new here, the opponent has a golden signature that makes all players have to respect his opinion.
Offensive assistant on a championship team!
Although he is new here, after Tristos won the championship with the Dallas Mavericks last season, as the team's first offensive assistant, he suddenly became the "sweet potato" in the hearts of the management of major teams!
The Trail Blazers have made it to the playoffs in the past few years, but in the end they failed to win anything. This obviously did not meet Allen's requirements. In order to seek change, he specially signed Terry Stoutes.
Because he believes that Terry Stotts, who studied under the famous NBA coach "Jim Kelly", naturally learned some real things from the former.
After seeing that everyone had arrived, Coach Terry asked everyone to start recovery training.
The initial training period is to allow the players to get back in shape so that they can better regain their game condition, and then the tactical training for the new season will begin.
Tactics are sometimes more grueling than physical training because they test a person's IQ.
As the basketball league with the highest standards and the widest audience in the world, the NBA's game tactics are naturally much more complicated than during Wang Zelin's CBA period.
For role players, they only need to remember their own, and there are not so many tactics to master.
For a star, they need more technical tactics. It can be said that, except for a few, there are only a few stupid people who can make a name for themselves in the NBA.
Compared with other players, Wang Zelin is undoubtedly lucky.
Perhaps thanks to the player cards he inherited, especially O'Neal's superstar card, his understanding of basketball has improved rapidly, and his tactical cultivation and mastery of tactics seem to be much better than those of rookies in the same class.
Even Lillard, after four years of college career, dare not say that he has surpassed Wang Zelin in terms of tactical mastery.
Therefore, when Coach Terry brought the FLOW tactics to the Trail Blazers that the Mavericks relied on to win the championship, Wang Zelin was always the quickest to understand it.
Fortunately, Wang Zelin didn't stand out much because of Wai Guoren's label as "the per capita academic leader of the Chinese people."
A rare tactical genius!
It just unlocks a new badge.

Starting on October 8, 2012, this season's NBA preseason is in full swing.
On the night of the 11th, the Lakers of the Pacific Region faced the Trail Blazers of the Northwest Region at home.
It is worth mentioning that the Trail Blazers' first opponent in the regular season is also the Los Angeles Lakers, but then the Lakers will have to go to the Rose Garden, the home of the Trail Blazers.
I don’t know how our president planned the schedule. It can’t really be a coincidence.
David No one is a bigger fan than me Stern: "I'm not, I'm not, stop talking nonsense!"
For most teams in the league, the preseason is to find out the touch of the main players and test the gold content of the team's newcomers.
As far as the Lakers are concerned, they completely ignore such small scenes, otherwise they would not have lost to the "little-known" Warriors in the last game.
Tonight, Lakers star Kobe Bryant missed the game due to injury.
As for the team's other major signing, Mr. Warcraft, who looks like a big boy but is actually very ambitious, shows little interest in the preseason and directly announced that he would not participate in any of the Lakers' five games. A preseason game.
Although the current Lakers are led by "Son of the Wind" Steve Nash and Gasol, and assisted by Artest, who has been renamed, on the wing, it can be seen from the last game of less than 20 minutes between the three of them. The Lakers still focus on training newcomers.
For Wang Zelin, it can be considered a good thing.
Although he aspires to be the number one center in the league, Howard, who is still in his prime, has at least 90+ ability. It is still a bit unwise to challenge the opponent rashly.
The opponent in this game suits him very well.
Robert Sacre, a 2.13-meter big man selected by the Lakers with the 30th pick in the second round.
Every year, there are countless talented people who, as soon as they come to the big stage of the NBA, encounter opponents whose strength far exceeds theirs, and are completely discouraged, so that they will never be able to play again in the future.
For such an opponent, Wang Zelin is completely confident that he will completely defeat the opponent within the time he plays. This kind of guy is here to boost his confidence and increase his popularity.
For the Trail Blazers, Aldridge, Batum, and Matthews have also made it clear that they will only play about one or two quarters in this game, and the rest of the performance time will be left to him and Lee. Ladd.
What a great teammate!
Wang Zelin once again felt that coming to the Trail Blazers might not be such an unfortunate thing.
Apart from the center curse that has been circulating in the "Tear City" since the last century, this Trail Blazers team is really good.
Not all teams are like the Trail Blazers. The team boss is a gentleman, easy to get along with, and doesn't like to suppress newcomers.
As for the other main players of the team, they are all young guys in their mid-twenties. As long as they like what they like, they will either talk about games, women, or money. Young people's hobbies are always similar, which also means It's easy for everyone to get together.
Except for Hickson, who was dissatisfied with Wang Zelin because of the reduction in playing time, the other players on the Trail Blazers got along well with him.
~~~
At the pre-game interview meeting, as the only Chinese player in the league, a newly promoted national team player, and the starting center of the national team men's basketball team, Wang Zelin unsurprisingly became the first interview subject.
Compared with Wang Zelin, the reporters next to the rest of the Trail Blazers seemed a bit shabby.
"Wow, look at Wang's arrogant face. Sometimes I really wish I was also a Chinese player. That would be great!"
The Trail Blazers currently have 19 players on the roster, but when the new season starts, only 15 players will be left on the roster, 12 will enter the regular season activation list, and the rest will be in the Development League.
Except for the main players who are somewhat well-known and have some reporters interviewing them, the rest are all insignificant and small players in the league, and almost no reporter will interview them.
Wang Zelin's treatment made them say: envy, jealousy and hatred.
Not to mention them, even Batum and others were drooling after seeing it.
Matthews turned around and whispered to Batum beside him: "Man, if we win this game today, why don't we ask the king to go out and have fun together tonight."
"Hmm~~~Isn't this bad?"
Batum, who was born in the "Romantic City", was obviously moved, but he still secretly glanced at Coach Terry with some sincerity.
"I heard that Wang is still a virgin. As brothers, I think we need to help him take off that shameful hat."
"really?"
"The king is only 19 years old. Don't forget that the men in their dynasty are always very innocent, so what do you think?"
Wang Zelin never expected that Matthews, who usually behaved like a loyal elder, would "fall" like this.
"no problem!"
Hearing this, Batum slapped his thigh and agreed immediately.
At this time, Wang Zelin suddenly felt an eerie breath coming from behind him.
He always has a bad premonition!
Batum and the two were quietly snickering there, maybe they were already thinking about the embarrassing scene when Wang Zelin, an innocent virgin from the Celestial Dynasty, entered the nightclub for the first time.
It is said that "pulling good women into seclusion and persuading prostitutes to be good" is a great pleasure for men.
For veterans like Batum, it is also quite fun to personally train a big boy to become a man.
"Wesley, what are you laughing at here? Is there anything funny?"
Aldridge on the other side noticed early on that his two teammates were always laughing there, and he couldn't help but get curious and get closer.
"LaMarcus, let's prepare tonight~~~"
Batum told Aldridge what he and Matthews were planning.
"Uh-huh~ You guys are so immoral~~ Remember to count me in!"
After the interview, Wang Zelin found that his teammates behind him were always smiling, and a group of people were laughing at the same time.
"Guys, what's wrong with you?"
"No, no, we just remembered some happy things."
"?"
Wang Zelin was even more confused.
