Reborn NBA Gao Fushuai

Today, Vujacic drove to the Lakers training facility as usual. He was in a good mood. Yesterday, he finally got his dream NBA contract, 3+1, 570 million for four years. Compared with the bitterness of less than seven figures, it is very good.

No one can expect that Kobe Bryant's record five-year rookie contract of $5000 million can be obtained as soon as he enters the NBA.

At least from this contract, Vujacic can feel that the team values ​​him and signed the contract, which means that in the first three years, Vujacic will become a restricted player. If the Lakers have no intention of exchanging him, he He must play in the team for three years. After the three years, he is a restricted free agent in the last year. The Lakers have the priority to renew his contract. If the Lakers choose to renew, he cannot leave, even if the It's okay if he doesn't accept it, and if the Lakers don't renew his contract, then he can leave. In the fifth year, he will be a free agent and can choose the desired team to join.

However, Vujacic did not intend to stay with the Lakers for such a long time. He has a rebellious personality and never will be a younger brother to others. Of course, if the Lakers trade Kobe out, or Kobe bows his head to be his assistant, Vujacic does not mind. The Lakers play for life.

It's a pity that that kind of situation is almost impossible to happen. The Lakers will not give up Kobe, and Kobe will not hand over the newly acquired team leader throne to others.

So it is doomed that Vujacic is at best a passer-by in the Lakers, but even so, he does not intend to be passive and slow down. The Lakers are his first platform leading to the NBA. He must make good use of this platform.

Walking into the training hall, Vujacic suddenly found that the atmosphere today was not the same as usual. You can feel it from those hard-working buddies who hang out together all day. I didn’t see Cook, who likes to be lazy during training, Are you trying to run back and forth with all your strength?

Moreover, there seemed to be a lot more people who came to train today.

Checking the time, he was not late yet. Vujacic went to the dressing room beside him to change his clothes, but he was only focused on arranging his equipment and didn't pay attention. As soon as he went out, he bumped into a big black man.

"Hey! Rookie! Are you so tender that you haven't learned to walk with your head up yet?"

Hearing this tone, I didn't know that the other party didn't dodge on purpose. Vujacic looked up, and he was carrying an extra-large meatball on his shoulder: "Sorry! But please don't look at the ceiling when you are walking!"

When Rouwanzi was stunned, Vujacic had already walked past him, rubbing his chin, Rouwanzi smiled: "Interesting rookie!"

Only now did Vujacic realize why so many people came to the training hall today. Calculating the time, it is only a few days before the NBA preseason game. Some of the main players have also started to return to the team, such as Lamar Odo who just hit him. m.

Vujacic was puzzled, even with Odom's honor, he was able to marry the top meat of the Kardashian family. After that, it must be the bare-bottomed kid with wings who got drunk.

While exercising his body on the sidelines, Vujacic discovered that the head coach Phil Jackson, who had only heard his name but never seen him, also came to the training hall today.

When Vujacic looked over, he happened to collide with Big Phil's eyes. To his surprise, Big Phil smiled at him.

This old glass!
In his previous life, Vujacic didn't know what it means to observe words and feelings, so naturally he couldn't tell what is appreciation and what is ambiguity.

It was the assistant coach who led everyone's training, while Big Phil put his shoulders on his shoulders and stood on the sidelines to pretend to be cool.

Before the training started, Vujacic still looked in the direction of Big Phil from time to time. He couldn't figure out why this great god was so diligent, leaving Miss Bass unworthy, and came to watch a group of big men train. .

But as soon as the training started, Vujacic forgot everything and devoted himself to it. Apart from basketball, he didn't have any special hobbies. The only thing that could attract him was basketball.

Moreover, Vujacic is very clear that this period of time is directly related to his future in the Lakers, or in the NBA, and there is no room for slack or slack.

People are afraid of being compared in any environment. Compared with those old fritters around him who have been in the NBA for many years, Vujacic is naturally an outlier. He does his best in every training, and he seems to be serious. Too much.

"That young man is really good!" Da Phil, who had been silent since the beginning of the training and just watched quietly, finally spoke.

Assistant coach Brian Shaw has been serving as his assistant since Big Phil entered Staples. The long-term working relationship has also allowed the two to forge a deep friendship. For Big Phil, Brian is too much Understood, he knew that lucky Slovenian boy had successfully attracted the attention of his old friend.

Brian is also very optimistic about Vujacic. Although this kid has the unique unruliness of young people, he has a serious training attitude and never causes trouble. Gotta get that black mamba?
"Among young people, he is indeed worthy of praise. Of course, I am not talking about his strength and talent, but his attitude towards basketball, which is very serious. This is very similar to Bryant!"

When Da Phil heard this, he looked at Bryan in surprise: "Like Kobe, Bryan! Are you sure you're serious!?"

Big Phil's expression was as if he had just met Brian. You must know that in the Lakers, Brian Shaw, as an assistant coach, was notoriously strict. During normal training, as long as someone caught fish, it was absolutely necessary to enjoy him. Hair dryers, even the Black Mamba are not immune.

Bryan shrugged: "Of course, I don't think my evaluation of him is too much. Remember the part about that Slovenian boy in the training report I gave you? After the training, I practiced [-] more shots. Now What I want to tell you is that he didn't just train on a whim, but insisted on it every day, which is the strength training that everyone hates. He completed it very seriously. A young man who can do this, at least I haven't seen it, even the original Bryant couldn't do it. I remember that after he got his rookie contract, he was late for training every day for a long time, but I didn't see a little bit of it in this kid. My son's impetuousness and forgetfulness!"

This kind of evaluation is really not low. A player's strength generally doesn't matter, and talent almost doesn't matter. The most important thing is attitude. If you don't even know yourself, you think you can sit back and relax when you get an NBA contract. Relax and treat yourself Such a player is really hopeless.

If Vujacic is really as hardworking as Brian said, I can really look forward to it, but Big Phil will not praise anyone easily, he prefers to be picky: "I remember I said encouragement Players continue to practice after the normal training, Brian! As the team's assistant coach, you should be responsible for their bodies, and when necessary, stop those young people who are too enthusiastic to use their bodies too much, and the team After signing the body, their body is a valuable asset of the team!"

Brian obviously guessed that Big Phil would say this: "Okay, buddy! I can't stop a hard-working young man's desire to improve his strength. That would be irresponsible. Now you should consider other issues , Treating such a diligent rookie, don’t you think he should be rewarded? For example, playing time, I believe that will be the best gift for him!”

Big Phil didn't say a word. He never promised anything easily, even to a super player like Kobe, let alone a rookie who didn't have any NBA experience.

The training attitude is serious and diligent, which is not enough to explain any problems. What is Vujacic's strength still needs to be observed and continued to be observed.

After all, he has been in the position of coach for many years, and Da Phil has also seen too many training players. During normal training, he is like a superstar, but when he comes to the field, he immediately becomes a soft egg.

He does have expectations for Vujacic, but how to use it specifically still needs to be tested by the game.

Vujacic, who is on the training ground, doesn't know that he has already registered in the heart of the team's head coach Da Phil, and he doesn't need to think about those issues. As a time traveler with a Chinese soul, he started from his previous life. , what I have always believed in is the four words: one day rewards those who work hard!

The head coach visited the training hall in person, and some players burst out with enthusiasm several times more than usual. Whether they can get a contract, or whether they can have a position in the team for the new season depends on the hard work these days.

Showing one's abilities in front of the head coach is always better than practicing dumbly. After all, Big Phil is the one who ultimately decides their fate.

Of course, Vujacic also hopes to impress Big Phil, but he has more important things to do now, which is to adapt to the current body as soon as possible. Compared with the previous life, the current body, whether it is height, weight, There is a big difference in speed, jumping ability, strength, flexibility, and flexibility. The most important point is that, to adapt to the current hands, he must master the feeling of basketball as soon as possible.

While practicing dribbling patiently, suddenly, Vujacic felt a chill, inexplicably, completely without warning, holding the basketball in his hand, Vujacic raised his head and looked towards the door of the training hall, his eyes immediately changed.
