Chapter 597 A Leader Who Can Win (362)

Chapter 6 and Three: Leaders Who Can Win

Media day

Wei Xia appeared in front of the media wearing a brand new jersey.

The camera pointed at him, asking him to put out a few words.

According to the photographer's request, Wei Xia made various actions and left many handsome photos with fixed makeup.

It's rare that you don't need to train, play games, or care about Cousins' day, Wei Xia wants to make good use of it.

Then came the interview.

Wecha sat next to the questioner in his jersey.

The first question they asked was: "How's the chemistry with the new Sixers?"

"Better than expected. We have many new faces this year. This is a challenge. Everyone has their own style and personality. It is not an easy task to knead everyone's personality together."

Wei Xia spoke as if he was the head coach.

"Tell us about DeMarcus Cousins." The questioner couldn't wait.

If Wei Xia is Dinghaishenzhen, Cousins ​​is the player most looking forward to by 76ers fans.Before entering the industry, he had many legends.

Some people say that he is the best player in the 2010 class, some people say that he is a malignant tumor, and he is accompanied by troubles wherever he goes, and some people say that he is actually a good person, but the goodness is not so obvious.

As far as the preseason training camp these days, it has been reported more than once that he and the veteran have a relationship.

"Boge is special," Wesha said. "Except for Andrew Bynum, I haven't seen a center with more talent than him."

What needs to be known is that Wei Xia has seen sharks in his later years, the Warcraft Howard in his prime, and Yao Huang.

Whether it's a compliment or a truth, a single comment puts Cousins ​​at the height of "the best active player".

Wei Xia went on to say: "At the same time, he is the player I have ever seen who needs to be taught carefully. I have heard many legends about him. I have been in contact with him recently. I think those rumors are not groundless. Boge does have some problems, but they are not unsolvable."

"Speaking of a thousand words and ten thousand, he is still a rookie who has not played in the regular season. He has already shouldered such high expectations when he is not yet 20 years old. Give him some time, and he will exceed everyone's imagination."

Just when Wei Xia met people to draw the blueprint of "Coussins is worth looking forward to", in the distance, the person who was worth looking forward to had an awkward relationship with the photographer.

"Is that so?"

"Still shooting?"

"It's not over for you?"

"The last time! The last time!"

"Why do I have to take these stupid pictures with you here!"

Cousins' most hilarious outburst came: "Can you stop standing behind me for a photo?"

The photographer felt that with Cousins' figure, taking a photo from behind could show his stalwart physique.

Seeing his unhappy face, the photographer couldn't help but stop, "Boge, don't you like it?"

"Nonsense, would you like a strange man holding something at your ass?" Cousins ​​resolutely refused to let the photographer shoot his ass.

After some haggling, they decided to switch to someone Cousins ​​could trust.

——Wish!

Wish, who was being interviewed, was called over.

Does Cousins ​​trust him?Enough to hand your ass over to him?No, I chose Wish only because Cousins ​​was convinced that the other party was a straight man of steel.

"Are you too sensitive?" Wei Xia asked.

"Sensitive? Would you give your ass to someone you've never met to guard?" Cousins' eyes widened.

butt?guard?Others obviously want to take pictures of his broad body to show the outside world how majestic he is!
Wei Xia picked up the camera and said lightly: "You have to have confidence in yourself. With your physique, there is no homosexual who dares to have unreasonable thoughts about you."

"Always be cautious, always be truthful, and never trust strangers. This is the reason why I am alive!" Cousins ​​thought he was a wise man, "This is also my motto!"

Wei Xia took a dozen photos according to the instructions of the camera holder.

He then handed the camera back.

"It's been a long time with the big shit," Cousins ​​babbled. "I think he's just too busy!"

It's as if it's not Cousins ​​himself who is messing around.

Wei Xia returned to the interview.

The people who interviewed him saw his interaction with Cousins. They were shocked by the relationship between Wesha and Cousins, and they were even more shocked by Cousins' ignorant personality.

There are very few rookies who don't show self-consciousness after joining the team. Even if they pretend, they must pretend to be a little bit, so that people can't think that you are uneducated.

Cousins ​​defies all the obvious laws.

It was Cousins' turn to accept the interview, and the questioner was very cautious.

They acted as if they were rookies, which made Cousins ​​feel uncomfortable, "Relax, sir, I won't eat you again."

Cousins' pretended friendliness made the questioner sweat.

This man has a physique like a brown bear, a temper like a time bomb, and a G-spot that no one can master.

"I will not eat you"? , this is not certain.

"You are just about to start your career, do you have any requirements for yourself?"

"Well, I want to become the best center forward in active service first, and then become the best center forward in history!" He took it for granted, as if it could be easily achieved.

Next, the questioner asked about the relationship between him and Wei Xia.

Cousins ​​smiled extremely happily: "I like Wish, he is my favorite person in this team, only he will confront me tit for tat, you just don't know how much he likes to trouble me, but I never take it to heart."

One likes to make trouble, and the other is happy to be troubled and never takes it to heart?

What a healthy relationship, it's OK to cry.

The questioner faintly felt that things must not be as simple as Cousins ​​said.

What did he mean by "trouble"?

As a dangerous questionee, Cousins ​​has an advantage. The person who asked him dare not be aggressive. If he is provoked, the interview will be over.

Those who can make exclusive interviews with the 76ers are all from the local media in Philadelphia, and they don't want to have a bad relationship with Cousins.

As a result, Cousins ​​heard less-than-controversial issues.

In addition to the players, the coaching staff will also be interviewed.

Doug Collins is the new head coach, he has a new team, a low starting point, and a team that hit rock bottom.

"I'm trying to find each person's role, what each person is best suited for."

Collins' words, as if the training camp just started today, he doesn't know his players yet.

Speaking of the relationship between Wesha and Cousins, Collins gave recognition: "I think they are actively developing their friendship with each other."

As for the goal of the new season, Collins said with a faint smile: "Returning to the playoffs, this is the main goal."

In addition to the main characters such as Wesha, Cousins, and Collins, others like Zhu Holiday, Thaddeus Young, Louis Williams, and Gordon Hayward, the same lottery pick as Cousins, all accepted exclusive interviews.

Unlike Cousins, Hayward doesn't have so much pressure on him, because he was selected as the ninth overall pick in the first round.

In order to send Iguodala away and seek stability, the 76ers chose the front lottery to choose him.

He doesn't have as high expectations as Cousins, nor is he as controversial as the latter. He is a good player. As for whether he can plug and play in the new season, it remains to be seen.

So, he said: "I go to bed every night looking forward to the start of the new season."

After the media day, the 76ers' preseason training camp was once again in full swing.

Halfway through the training camp, Collins could only determine three starting positions.

Wesha, Cousins ​​and Thaddeus Young.

He has doubts about the starting No. [-] position and the starting No. [-] position.

Hayward seems to be the most suitable starting three position. He has enough size and skill, but the confrontation will be problematic.

Is it appropriate to start with two rookies?

As the starting No. [-], he swings between Holiday and TJ Ford.

Choosing Holiday to start is tantamount to following the predecessor's strategy and turning the 76ers into the ultimate swingman team.

Choosing Ford is succumbing to the experience of veterans.

With Ford's potential injury problems, he can only make a fake start at best.

Collins first set the starting position at the third position.

He decided to start all over again, so let Hayward start at the third position.

It has become a fact that two rookies will start the new season, and there is no need to worry too much about the starting No. [-] candidate.

Can he trust Hayward, who has never played an official game, can't he trust Holiday, who has been tested for a season and proved that he can swing the No. [-] position?
After 2/3 of the training camp, Collins officially confirmed the starting lineup for the new season.

The following day, the five starters of the new season formed a team for the first time against a team composed of Lu Wei, Weaver, Hawes, Hollins and others.

Although the starting five tigers are more talented, but there is no tacit understanding, Cousins ​​​​seems to prove himself as the incarnation of the ball devourer, no one passes, and he keeps playing singles.

He scored the highest score in the team, but at the critical moment, he was double-teamed by Hollins and Hawes and made a mistake. The starting five tigers of the first team lost.

Collins noticed that Wei Xia was just watching with great interest.

Perhaps, he didn't want to spoil Cousins' enthusiasm, but watching from the sidelines at this time will give Cousins ​​more arrogant capital.

After the game, Collins called Wesha to his side.

"Wish, how did you feel about the game just now?" Collins asked.

Wei Xia said: "Boge played too many singles."

Collins asked with a smile: "Since you know, why don't you point out the problem on the spot?"

Before Wei Xia could answer, Collins continued, "You want him to see the problem himself?"

After all, he looked at Cousins, who was complaining about Hayward's poor shooting touch, which led to the loss in the first game, "Do you think he has any remorse?"

Wei Xia asked: "What do you want me to do?"

"Any leader who encounters such a clueless rookie should speak up and point out his mistakes. Wish, you have to tell him where he is wrong."

"Apart from this?"

"No, only this." Collins said affirmatively, "This is what you should and must do. This is what a leader will do, unless you don't want to be the leader of the team."

When Collins' words fell, Wei Xia's gaze changed at a clearly visible speed.

His eyes became aggressive, looking straight at Collins.

But he didn't say anything, as if he didn't know what to say, or, he already had an answer.

Collins' words were short but straight to his heart.

This is the only time that Collins directly told Wesha what to do.

What will happen?Collins waits and sees.
