21. Reasonable Basketball

"What?! You've arrived in Dallas!?"

The sound from the other end of the phone made Wu Dawei a little excited.

"Of course~ I have always been a person who says what I say!" Emma Roberts listened to Wu Dawei's excitement because of her every move, and she always felt an inexplicable feeling of pleasure in her heart.

"Well... our team is going to Dallas soon."

Wu Dawei was very happy to hear that Emma Roberts was already in Dallas, but what made him even more excited in the past two days was that the Cleveland Cavaliers distributed a new Cavaliers jersey. Of course, it was not actually a new jersey, but it was a jersey of extraordinary significance.

The Cleveland Cavaliers' jersey has an additional logo of the O'Brien Cup. Although it is just a seemingly trivial little logo, it is of great significance to many players. To some extent, it represents the two top teams in the league today.

Being able to stand on the stage of the finals is something that many players can't see.

After the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder and entered the finals, the league also announced the schedule for this year's finals, and the game kicked off on June 9. The Cavaliers only reached Dallas on June 8.

Although there is plenty of time, the Cavaliers still choose to prepare and train before the finals in Cleveland.

Although Emma Roberts rushed to Dallas as promised, after Wu Dawei went to Dallas with the team, he did not meet Emma Roberts immediately. After all, for Wu Dawei, the first most important game in his life will open its mysterious veil, which of course will be Wu Dawei's top priority.

After arriving in Dallas, the Cleveland Cavaliers rushed to the pre-booked hotel and then took a short rest. The team once again took the bus and headed to the Mavericks' home court, the American Airlines Center, for a brief adaptive training. Such a training will allow the Cavaliers to have one more time before the first game of the finals.

Due to a disadvantage in the regular season record, the Cavaliers can say that no round can get a home advantage in the playoffs. They will face each round of the series with a away game first and then back to home.

Fortunately, when the game comes to the finals, although the competition system is still the team with an advantage in record plays home games first, and then the team with a disadvantage in regular season plays away games first.

However, after playing two games in Dallas, the Cavaliers were able to usher in three consecutive home games after returning to Cleveland!

This is the slightly different game system between the Finals and the Playoffs. The league's arrangement is not only to prevent the two teams from running too hard in the two places, after all, the locations of the East and Wester League teams are usually thousands of miles apart, and even cross half of the United States.

Just like if this is really what David Stern expected to be the match between the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers, then just thinking about the distance the players need to fly during the finals will easily make people shudder...

Of course, in addition to this, the league makes such an arrangement to make the game more balanced. Such an arrangement can allow teams with disadvantaged records to gain advantages in advance in three consecutive home games.

For the Cleveland Cavaliers, they only need to win one game away and have the opportunity to win the final victory in three home games!

After the team completed adaptive training, Wu Dawei went out to invite Emma Roberts for a dinner. Of course, since the first game of the finals will kick off the next day, Wu Dawei's date did not last too long. After all, he still has to put the finals first!

After sending Emma Roberts back, he also returned to the hotel he stayed at. Of course, Wu Dawei, who returned to his suite, was inevitably teased by Andre Valejo, who lived under the same roof.

Basically, when there is a game the next day, it is such an important game. The players will go to bed this morning. Wu Dawei is even more so. He wants the key to the training hall from the coaching staff and prepares to go to the gym to train early tomorrow morning.

Dallas was already very hot in June, but at 4 a.m., the night was still shrouding the earth and the temperature was very moderate. Wu Dawei's biological clock allowed him to get up on time, and Andre Valejo was still sleeping soundly, so Wu Dawei naturally went to the training hall alone to train.

However, in the evening, Wu Dawei's training intensity was not high, so he mainly conducted shooting training. Maintaining his own feel is a more important thing for Wu Dawei now. Although Wu Dawei's scoring methods and increasingly diversified in the game, shooting is still a relatively important scoring method for him.

The shooting after pick-and-roll with the team's guards has always been the scoring method that Wu Dawei is good at, as well as the open shots that run after slipping through the bottom line. All of this requires a good feel to ensure.

Moreover, after watching the sixth game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Oklahoma City Thunder, Wu Dawei discovered more about the power of shooting from Dirk Nowitzki!

During the days when the East District finals were over waiting for the opening of the finals, Wu Dawei also found some of Dirk Nowitzki's performance in this year's playoffs after watching the West District finals.

The shooting feel as smooth as silk as people say, and the shooting rate that makes people feel nearly 100% at critical moments did give Wu Dawei a lot of inspiration.

This can be regarded as a disguised study of the main players in the opponent's lineup. Although Dirk Nowitzki will not directly compete with Wu Dawei in the game. Although both of them are forwards, one is the third position and the other is the fourth position, and there is still a big gap in the position on the court.

Although Wu Dawei has occasionally played the role of center, after all, his height is there, so Wu Dawei can only play a guest role when playing in a small lineup. If he really wants to play the fourth position in the regular lineup, even if Wu Dawei has outstanding abilities, it is still quite difficult.

However, although he will not play against Dirk Nowitzki on the court, Wu Dawei will definitely help Andre Varécho defend Nowitzki. After all, as the core figure of the Mavericks, Dirk Nowitzki, who has repeatedly played key roles in this year's playoffs, will definitely become the strong point for the Mavericks when they face the Cavaliers!

Wu Dawei's shooting training alone in the training hall continued until eight o'clock in the morning. Of course, he could not have been shooting constantly on the court. If he waited for his teammates to train, Wu Dawei would definitely not have even lost any physical strength.

On the game day, the Cavaliers only arranged a brief team training in the morning, and there was only one pre-match warm-up training left.

Then, the first game of this year's finals will kick off.

The game disappeared minute by minute as time passed quietly, and the two teams' preparations for this year's finals have reached the final moment.

On the afternoon of June 9, countless journalists from all over the world also rushed to Dallas. As the first player in China to enter the NBA League finals and led the team to the finals as the boss of the team, Wu Dawei certainly received enough attention in his motherland.

Not only ccav5 is the full tracking and reporting, but even ccav one previewed the event in the news broadcast on the evening of June 9, Beijing time. This is a great honor and indirectly shows how many people in China are looking forward to the upcoming finals at this moment.

In this season, Yao Ming's injury has made countless Chinese fans feel sad. It can be said that the rumors that Yao Ming's injury and even the verge of retirement have put a domestic basketball idol of Chinese fans in an empty space.

At this time, Wu Dawei's sudden emergence immediately attracted the attention of all Chinese basketball fans. Even Wu Dawei's votes in the All-Star Game can be said to be largely thanks to the enthusiastic support of Chinese fans.

Although many people are saying that Chinese fans blindly support the players of their own country, who is asking everyone to be compatriots? Who does not support compatriots and support whom!?

In this game, ccav 5 will do live broadcasts. After all, this is the final battle of this season. Moreover, there will be a live broadcast of Wu Dawei's game this season. AV's ratings can break through the 5% mark, which is much better than the usual 3% ratings!

Before the game started, ccav station also sent an introductory team to Dallas. Teacher Zhang Heli, who is loved by China Kemi, is the undisputed leader. Before the game, they found Wu Dawei, with the purpose of course to give an interview to Wu Dawei.

During the warm-up before the game, Wu Dawei was called to the sidelines. When Teacher Zhang Heli asked what kind of basketball the Cavaliers would play tonight, Wu Dawei replied with a smile: "Reasonable basketball!"

Teacher Heli’s face instantly felt bright! Wu Dawei said that basketball is named after him...
