Pick Westbrook

Chapter 49 Westbrook: Hello

Hammond admired Li Lai more and more.

Not since the Bucks entered the 2000s have they worked out like this.

One is that the players are worried that the players will be exhausted and injured due to heavy training, and the other is that most players will not agree to such intensive team training.

But now, the entire Bucks team is particularly convinced of Li Lai, especially the team's current excellent record, which makes them believe in every word Li Lai said.

In addition, there is Artest who is also a training madman off the court and looks fierce.

These young players of the Bucks finally realized the horror of the four villains in the league. Artest has always been able to do it without beeping.

Although he and his teammates have not yet reached the point of Muay Thai attack, after seeing him and Westbrook's boxing training, these players finally panicked.

George Hill opened his eyes and said anxiously: "Ron's boxing strength is probably enough to fight professionally."

"His father was a professional boxer," Villanueva reminded.

Dragic, who is the shortest in stature, said worriedly: "His fist is almost as big as my head. After this hammer, I don't know if I can still see those young ladies walking on the street."

Li Lai looked at the exhausted players on the court and walked down from the second floor.

He has been overseeing the players' training during this time, and it has been very effective.

Especially in terms of tactics and strength training, these newcomers have made significant progress.

At the same time, Li Lai also handed over Yi Jianlian, Westbrook and George Hill to Artest to give them special defensive training.

Although Artest alone can greatly improve the Bucks' defense, he is only one person after all.

If the Bucks once again encounters an offensive master like Anthony, it is impossible for Artest to distract other players to help defend.

Therefore, it is urgent to improve the defensive strength of other Bucks players.

"But the team's progress in shooting drills has been too slow.

On slightly simpler fixed-point shots, the players were able to maintain a good hit rate and generate effective shooting threats.

But when it comes to moving shots, shooting around screens and shooting under defensive pressure, players have a big problem. "

Hammond said worriedly.

Especially Yi Jianlian and Villanueva, their three-point shooting percentage under defensive pressure is almost at the same level as Westbrook!
As Li Lai's most important inside high-level fortress, if the two of them are completely misfired on the offensive end due to the improvement of defensive strength in the playoffs, it will undoubtedly be a devastating disaster for the Bucks.

"We don't have good shooting trainers in the team, so we have no experience in correcting these players' training and shortcomings.

I'm afraid we have to find a way to solve this matter from the outside. "

Hammond knew that the team's shooting trainer had been on Li Lai's mind since the beginning of the season, so he sincerely suggested it at this time.

But good shooting trainers can't be found if you can find them. Some shooting trainers who have become famous and proved themselves have already been snatched away by various teams in the league.

Most of the remaining ones are people who are uneven or don't know how much they are.

"It also doesn't seem realistic for us to pay a lot of money to poach trainers who are already on other teams.

Because we are poor. said Hammond bitterly.

Hearing this, Li Lai suddenly smiled. He hadn't worried much about this matter a long time ago.

Because he has already found a candidate for a shooting trainer, and the other party is also the most powerful shooting trainer in the world.

At this time, Artest came over from the training ground and said, "Coach, are we going to play the Pacers next game?"

Hammond nodded and interjected, "That's right, we're leaving for Indiana tomorrow night, and we're going to play the Pacers the day after tomorrow."

The Pacers' record this season is so-so, currently ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference.

Although they have Danny Granger, who claims to be the No. [-] small forward in the Eastern Conference, and Troy Murphy, a double-double machine, plus Mike Dunleavy and TJ Ford, they can be regarded as a good lineup. team.

It's just that their head coach Jim O'Brien is too rigid in coaching the team, only thinking about improving the team's defense, thus ignoring the team's offense.

It also allowed the Pacers to completely waste the scoring potential of Troy Murphy and TJ Ford on the offensive end.

So don't look at the Pacers who are still clinging to the eighth position in the East, they are very likely to be out of the ranks of the playoffs if they are not careful.

Li Lai and Artest looked at each other, and the secrets that only belonged to them were kept silent.

Artest said: "I will try my best to help you complete this matter, but I don't know if I caused him to lose the chance to compete for the championship, and now I will forgive me."

Li Lai said affirmatively: "I'm not sure if he forgives you, but he must regret that he didn't get a championship ring in his career.

So starting from here is very hopeful. "

Artest suddenly remembered something, looked at Li Lai and said angrily: "Did you also find my weakness like this, and then got me?!"

Li Lai couldn't laugh or cry.

Aren't you talking nonsense? If it wasn't for being cheated, how could you let Artest come to the Bucks team willingly, and also wholeheartedly improve the strength of teammates, and work hard to strengthen The Bucks' overall defense.

Li Lai still remembered the few days when Artest came to Milwaukee, he kept shivering and shouting cold.

In fact, not only Artest, Li Lai has not adapted to the severe cold of Milwaukee until now.

Hammond listened to what the two said without knowing what to say, and it took him a long time to remember that the two had whispered something in front of him.

"I remember the name Reggie Miller being mentioned."

11 month 30 day.

The Bucks challenged the Pacers away.

As the last game in November, it was naturally specially arranged by the league to be broadcast live across the United States.

Countless reporters poured into the Bankers Life Arena to conduct pre-match interviews and live broadcasts of the game, including Zhang Weiping and Yu Jia from China.

Zhang Weiping first took Yu Jia to find Yi Jianlian, and the three of them chatted and spanked for a while before officially entering the interview.

Immediately afterwards, the two interviewed the popular actress Westbrook of the Bucks.

It's just that the scene on the sidelines is a bit embarrassing.

Zhang Weiping said: "Russell, do you know that you have a lot of fans in China, because you play the ball well, and you look very arrogant after dunking, so everyone gave you a very nice nickname. .

--Megatron. "

After the young Westbrook heard that he had a particularly large number of fans in China, he had already fallen.

At this time, no matter what Megatron or Wei Tiantian, he nodded happily and said, "I like this nickname very much."

Next is Zhang Weiping's favorite part of promoting Chinese culture.

"Come on, Russell, read Chinese with me: Hello."

Westbrook frowned, and it took him a long time to pronounce the awkward pronunciation.

"Your mother."
