Chapter 88 086: Heaven has reincarnation (4K recommendation please!)

After the new players introduced themselves briefly, the first training day of the Pacers' preseason training camp officially began.

In the first week of the training camp, we basically do some recovery training to help the players who have been absent for a long time recover their state and shape.

Not everyone is like Wayne, who tortured himself until yesterday.

Most people, after a summer vacation, their bodies have been out of shape a lot.

"Martial Saint" Stephen Jackson has gained a lot of weight, and Artest's muscle lines are not as fit as before.

Of course, this group of Pacers is considered good.

On the south coast, I don't know what fat surprise Shaq will bring to the Miami people.

After a few rounds of simple back and forth training, Wayne immediately received approval from his teammates.

Because he's the fastest of all the big players on the Pacers.

In everyone's inherent impression, Asian players should be slow-moving skills, refer to Yao Ming.

Wayne's speed was far beyond people's expectations.

In fact, the thin version of Chairman Yao is not slow to run, but his physical fitness is a little weaker, and he can't run after playing for a long time.

And in order to save energy, he also jogs most of the time.

Although Wayne's speed was not as fast as Xiao Ao's before gaining weight, it was considered pretty good.

After that, everyone basically used equipment to recover their bodies, but Wayne went directly to practice with the ball.

As a result, in the Pacers' training hall, the melodious tumbling sound of the Nets never stopped.

"Look, let me tell you, there is nothing wrong with his shooting at the third position." Mike Brown stood beside Carlisle, looking proud as if Wayne was trained by him.

In fact, he only played a few summer league games with Wayne.Moreover, there is only one offensive tactic: "Give the damn ball to Wei!"

"Well, there's no doubt about his shooting ability. In the preseason, we can take a good look at his quality." Carlisle nodded.

"You don't have to wait for the preseason, I can help you test him later."

"Hmm, you can wait, Ron, when did you come here!?" Carlisle turned his head and found Artest standing beside him calmly, joining the conversation without a trace.

As if he was also a member of the coaching staff.

"My body, you know, can be recovered in minutes. If you really want to recover, you have to rely on actual combat!" Artest rubbed his little hands excitedly.

"Don't make trouble, I have arrangements for actual combat training, you just have to implement the plan well. By the way, if you are late tomorrow, go to the 500-group turn-back run by yourself."

Artest, who was rejected by Carlisle, shrugged and left disappointed, and the training was back on track.

Of course, he did not give up testing Wayne.

Until noon, when the first round of training was over, everyone was in good condition.

Wayne was also exhausted. The intensity of training at the NBA level was indeed different from that of the NCAA.

Take the training against layups as an example, the trainer is really good.

Although holding the cushion, it was very hard.

In this era, not only the players, but even the trainers are so tough.

After the training, everyone sat in the training hall to rest temporarily, waiting for lunch to be served.

The players sat together in small groups, some discussing interesting things about the holiday, and some discussing where to go tonight to have fun.

O'Neal Jr. walked up to Wayne and asked Wayne about his training.

When he saw Xiao Ao walking towards him at first, Wayne was already ready to buy drinks for everyone, but Xiao Ao actually came to care about him.

In order to be a good leader, Xiao Ao, who was not very talkative, also worked hard.

Just chatting with Xiao Ao, "epoch-making superstar" Artest also approached the two of them.

"Yo, Wayne, buy us some drinks." Artest spoke loudly, deliberately attracting other people's attention.

Everyone saw that Artest was going to play tricks on the rookie, so they all sat and watched with a smile on their faces.

It is normal for rookies to join the team and be teased, basically it is a repertoire every season.

There is no one here who hasn't been teased in his rookie season.

But at this time, O'Neill's originally gentle face turned fierce.

He grabbed Wayne's shoulder to keep him from getting up.

"Didn't you see me talking to him?"

This was the first sentence O'Neal and Artest said after the Eastern Conference Finals last season.

In the first sentence, he greeted Artest's family cordially.

Worthy of being a good teammate.

The conflict between Artest and Xiao Ao reached its peak last season.

For one thing, the two of them are at odds with each other, they are both thorny, they are dissatisfied with each other, and they both feel that they are the boss.

Secondly, Artest always likes to force Lai Lai when Xiao Ao misses.

The third, and most important point - Artest's many brainless behaviors made Xiao Ao extremely upset.

For example, in the last game of the Eastern Conference finals last season, although the Pacers missed consecutively at critical moments, they actually still have a chance.

But in the end, Artest sent the opponent to the free throw line with a completely unnecessary foul as if his brain was missing a string, directly ruining the possibility of reversal.

Such things, Artest does not know how many times a season will be staged.

In the eyes of Xiao Ao, who wants to carry the team forward, this is a selfish behavior.Everyone's efforts were wasted because of that idiot's brain fever.

This is also the main reason why Xiao Ao has not spoken to Artest.

He felt that Artest had failed the team.

"It's okay, then I'll buy it for you." Artest did not directly confront O'Neal, but responded with a smile.

Although Xiao Ao and Artest had many conflicts, they never completely broke out.On the court, they will cooperate with each other as always.

This is because both are deliberately avoiding escalation.

Just like this time, Artest accepted it as soon as he saw it.With a playful smile on his face, Xiao Ao's anger couldn't rise anymore.

"Okay, then you go, Wei and I still have something to talk about."

"Hey, you can go, but the premise is that this kid has to beat me in 1v1. You may not know Jermaine, but he and I have already agreed that we will test each other before the start of the season.

Hey, Wei and I may have a better relationship than you think, Jermaine! "

"This..." How does Wayne feel that Xiao Ao and Artest are jealous?

When they heard that they were going to be singled out, everyone was overjoyed. They moved up the small benches and prepared to watch in the front row.

It is actually very common for NBA teams to play bullfighting in training.

Before Xiao Ao could react, everyone else was placing bets.

"Ron must have won, what the hell, he was the best defensive player last season!"

"Not necessarily, after all this big misplacement, I bet Wei wins."

Everyone was discussing, at this time, Wayne also stood up on his own initiative.

"Okay, 21 points, 3 points as 2 points, 2 points as 1 point, and the ball is exchanged directly if you shoot the ball, how about it?"

It doesn't matter whether you buy a drink or not, the key is to score goals in front of the best defensive player, the growth value must be very high!

You can get so many heads-up with Tony, but you can't max it out with Gangtai!

"Hahahaha, I like this kid." Miller took the lead in applauding. The temperament of No. 99 really fits the Pacers!

"Wei." O'Neal Jr. seemed very worried.

"It's okay Jermaine, I did make an agreement with Ron a long time ago. Besides, it's just for fun."

"Good boy, I saw you right." Artest, who wanted to have fun, got his wish.

The two stood on the basketball court, surrounded by teammates, Artest threw the ball to Wayne: "You go first."

Wayne shot the ball as soon as he caught it, and he was not polite to Artest.

Artest just raised his arms, didn't lunge forward or jump.As a result, the basketball went into the net hollow, and Wayne scored 2 points first.

"Goal, Wayne's three-pointer is really accurate, or you will compare him with three-pointers later, Reggie." People on the sidelines gave a voice of admiration.

As soon as the goal was scored, Wayne smiled.

This shit, scoring a three-pointer on Artest's head can actually get +2000 growth points!

Twice as much as last year when he was singled out with Rashid.

Worthy of being the best defensive player!

As expected of Tool Man No. [-]!

Tony, don't blame me for liking the new and loathing the old, the main reason is that the growth point given by Gangtai is really delicious!

"Tsk tsk tsk, you can. Your three-pointer can almost tie with me." Artest smiled and helped Wayne retrieve the ball.

After hearing Artest's words, O'Neal Jr. covered his forehead on the sidelines.

Real Nima doesn't want Bilian!

In terms of your three-point shooting percentage of over 30% last season, how does it compare with others?

Wayne's goal means that he continues to keep the offensive ball.

But the second time when he was about to attack, Gangtai didn't let go.

He clung to Wayne and showed his true strength as the best defensive player.

Well, to be precise, it should only be [-]% to [-]% of his strength. After all, Artest's physical condition has not yet fully recovered.

But even so, Wayne was guarded very hard.

Under Artest's pressure, Wayne couldn't shoot directly, so he made a fake shot and prepared to break through.

As a result, just after taking the first step, the ball lost control.

Artest stretched out his left hand and accurately completed the steal!

One thing to say, Artest's hard power at this time is really strong.Outside players take DPOY, which is enough to illustrate its weight.

When Kobe commented on Artest before, he said: "His hands are like sticky mouse boards. He only needs one finger to touch the basketball to take the ball away. You don't know how it happened."

Now, Wayne understands this very well.

"Hey, it's my turn now." After the steal, Artest started a rugby breakthrough as soon as he got out of the three-point line.

Wayne took a step sideways to block it, but was bounced away abruptly.

Artest's impact was something Wayne had never experienced before!

Of course, Artest was also bounced away, and Wayne was tougher than he expected.

But he didn't stop, but continued to hit the basket.

"It's over, Ron may be able to play a 21-0 climax and take the game away." On the sidelines, Pacers point guard Anthony Johnson was in a good mood.

Who let him buy Artest to win?

Artest went straight to the basket and jumped up to dunk.

But Wayne chased back to the penalty area at an incredible speed, taking advantage of his height and long arms, he pressed the ball in Artest's hand to the backboard!

"Boom!" The backboard glass made a muffled sound, and the players in the entire training hall had goose bumps all over their bodies.

Artest's dunk was blocked!

"So fast, did you see it? The speed at which he rushed back to the penalty area."

"I'm sorry, it's too high. His arms are really enviable."

"It can be saved, I'll go, Ron encountered a hard stubble today."

The players talked a lot, and Reggie Miller's eyes widened.

This ball reminded him of the ball he was chased by Tyshawn Prince in the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals last season.

This shit is so terrifying!

Artest was also very surprised. He really didn't expect his dunk to be destroyed by Wayne like a fly swatter.

This rookie is really interesting!

With him here, it might be a real success to play Pistons this year.

"Not bad, not bad, worthy of praise. This time I let you, after all, the game ends too early and it's boring."

Although Artest is full of praise for Wayne in his heart, he will never express it on the surface.

It still has the expression of "I can abuse you if I play casually".

face?

What's that?Is it useful for Artest?

Wayne regained possession of the ball, but his next attack was also blocked by Artest.

It is indeed too difficult to beat the best defensive player in 1-on-1. Although scoring a goal has a lot of points, it is estimated that you will not score a few in a game.

It seems that at this stage, it is still the fastest to earn points only by playing games.

With this ball, Wayne broke through for a layup, but the basketball bounced out of the basket under Gangtai's interference.

The ball was exchanged, and this time Artest directly backed Wayne from outside the three-point line.

After a few steps, Artest suddenly turned his back and broke through.In the process of turning back, he gave Wayne a dark elbow and successfully broke through for a layup.

1 to 2, Artest finally opened.

"Fuck, play dirty?" Wayne rubbed his ribs, but Artest didn't think there was anything wrong.

Because in his cognition, basketball is played like this.

When his father took him to play basketball at the street courts in Queensbridge, he was never a child.

The tough confrontation and elbows were all arranged for Artest, which often made Artest's nose bruised and his face swollen.

The best way for Artest to respond is to be tougher than his father.

This teaching method can be said to be quite hardcore.

The father and son elbowed and elbowed, and Artest grew up in a blink of an eye.Until the age of 15, his father found that he was no longer able to elbow Artest.

As a result, Artest went to high school and college to elbow others.

It can be said that the tiger father has no dog son.

Apart from personality reasons, Artest's current playing habits can be regarded as being cultivated by his father since he was a child.

This way of playing has penetrated Artest's bone marrow.

Seeing Wayne clutching his chest, Artest proudly prepared to continue attacking.

But Wayne was not afraid, he planned to fight back!

When dealing with people like Artest, the softer you are, the more he will bully you.If you are tougher, you can win respect instead.

Anyway, it's not to hurt someone, just let him hurt.

Just do it!

So, this time when Artest made a breakthrough, Wayne rushed forward to stop him roughly, and propped up his big elbow intentionally or unintentionally.

"Hey, I'll let you experience it too, wait a minute, did I equip Karl Malone's Iron Elbow?

Gangtai, don’t bump into it, Gangtai”

"Boom!" The violent sound made the entire training hall quiet.

It was too late, and Artest's chest went straight into Wayne's elbow.

At that moment, the ball dropped, and Artest's expression changed from complacent to bewildered, and he froze in place.

"Huh? What's going on?" Everyone looked at the two people who suddenly stood there, and they didn't know what happened.

Why did you stop?

Artest slowly raised one hand to cover his chest, and frowned slightly: "Well, I suddenly don't want to fight anymore. Well, I'll go buy drinks for everyone."

After speaking, Artest walked out of the training hall quickly.

Then, in the corner of the player tunnel, he finally couldn't hold back and shouted: "It hurts so much, that bastard is so ruthless!"

This piercing pain almost didn't let Artest die on the spot!

If he hadn't been concerned about face, he would have shouted out on the spot just now.

That guy Wayne looked harmless to humans and animals, but he didn't expect that there was something on his elbow!

Artest instantly felt that he was back in his rookie year. At that time, under the taunt of Jordan's king, he broke Jordan's two ribs with an elbow during training.

Well, now he's being taught a lesson by another rookie.

The difference is that after Jordan's ribs were interrupted, he insisted on finishing the ball before walking off the court.

Although Artest's ribs were not broken, the pain was so painful that he couldn't hold on at all.

There is reincarnation in the way of heaven, who will the sky spare.

Artest found out that he underestimated that guy Wayne!

He is by no means a good stubble, and he is by no means a good boy.

Ma De started black!

Although he was embarrassed by Wayne, Artest couldn't help laughing.

This rookie has an appetite!

If this elbow hits that Afro in Detroit, let's see if he's still sloppy!

If I don't dare to hit someone, I let others do it, it's fine.

But in the future, it is better not to single out Wayne, so as not to repeat Jordan's old path

It didn't break this time, if it's not even, it will be broken next time

"Yeah, I can't challenge him one-on-one again." Artest nodded to himself.

After 10 minutes, Artest, who had recovered, bought drinks for everyone, and then never mentioned the one-on-one match again.

Jr. O'Neal patted Wayne on the shoulder happily: "Good job, rookie."

"Uh..." Wayne didn't know what to say, and he just slipped away after hitting a few balls?

This is probably called subduing people with the elbow.

The Pacers are indeed a tough team, and they all make friends with their elbows.

When Carlisle and Mike Brown returned to the training ground, watching Artest obediently training, they didn't know what happened.

Well, it may be Artest this season, he has really matured.
