Rebattle against Yao Ming!

During the first six preseason games, the Mavericks achieved a record of 3 wins and 3 losses, winning both games against the Hawks and one against the Miami Heat while losing the other three. They didn't focus on the outcomes, substituting players when necessary and adapting their playstyle as the situation demanded.

When facing off against the Miami Heat, Wade and O'Neal were both in suits. Having won the championship, O'Neal was thoroughly dismissive of the so-called masterminds, tired of their antics. He refused the call to the devilish training camp, indulging in food and drinks as he pleased, which ballooned his weight to over 160 kilograms, while still flaunting his bulk in front of the masterminds upon his return to the team.

However, due to his excessive weight, O'Neal twisted his knee at the very start of the training camp.
