Chapter 31
Oakland, located in California on the west coast of the United States, is the eighth most populous city in the state. It is located in the center of the San Francisco Bay Area. It is surrounded by mountains and seas and is rich in natural resources.

At the same time, Auckland, with an average temperature of 13°C throughout the year, deeply attracts tourists from all over the world because of its mild and pleasant climate.

After filming the endorsement advertisements of Septwolves and Daliyuan in his hometown of Quanzhou, Wang Zelin came to the United States with his agent Zhou Yang and trainer Tom Bruce.

It happened to be Tom Bruce's hometown, and the three of them naturally came to visit.

However, the travel is just a matter of convenience. Coming to the United States in advance to adapt to the rhythm and confrontation of the game here is the real purpose of this trip.

It is only the beginning of May, the 5 draft lottery has not yet started, and various training camps have not yet been held.

As a sports league that has been developing for half a century, it naturally has its own fixed process.

Basically, after the end of the annual draft lottery, it also means that the NBA draft war has kicked off, and the entire league starts to rumble like a clockwork machine.

The first is the opening of the training camp, which includes the official organization of the NBA and the 30 teams of the league themselves. All players who meet the draft standards can go to the training camp for trial training.

This year's NBA lottery is scheduled for May 5, and the draft is scheduled for June 31, so Wang Zelin still has more than a month to improve himself.

However, this time the upgrade is a bit special.

……

On an indoor training ground in Oakland, sweat was dripping from Wang Zelin's cheeks to the floor. At this time, he could only hold his knees firmly with both hands to maintain his reluctance to stand. .

It must be admitted that this is the first time he almost collapsed due to training in the past few days.

"Hey hey boy, didn't you have a lot of backbone at the beginning? Why did you become weak so quickly."

"Rick, I haven't seen you for many years. It seems that your skill is far inferior to that of the past. You can't even settle for a hairy boy."

"Charles, don't talk nonsense there, let's go out and practice if you're not convinced."

"Come on, who's afraid of who? We haven't fought for a long time."

Seeing the two big men in front of them seemed to be ready to fight, the former Spurs player Bruce Bowen, who described himself as a "sven man", was inserted between the two.

"Okay, the two of you will have a little bit of mouth addiction, and you really want to do it!"

"Don't you forget what they paid us to come?"

Bowen pointed the finger at Wang Zelin, who was still breathing heavily.

"That kid hasn't fallen yet, which is a bit sorry for the reputation of our three brothers."

"Hee hee hee, although I don't like you very much, I have to admit that what you said really makes sense."

"Seconded!"

Looking at the three big men who were walking towards him with a smile, Wang Zelin couldn't help but the chrysanthemum shrank suddenly.

Rick Mahon, a center and a member of the famous "Bad Boys", is almost synonymous with violence. In the original Pistons, he acted as a bodyguard.

Charles Oakley, the main power forward: "Michael Jordan's thug!", "He didn't come to play, he came to fight!", "The villain in the eyes of the opponent, the good brother in the heart of the teammates!"

This is the famous label on Charles Oakley.

If the first two old guys, Wang Zelin, are not very familiar, then the last one, he is really familiar and can't be more familiar.

Bruce Bowen!
The seventh player in the history of the Spurs to enjoy the treatment of retired jerseys, the famous real ankle terminator in the league, and also one of the best defense masters in the league at the time.

These three old friends are the special trainers that Zhou Yang specially invited to Wang Zelin, so that he can experience the cruelty of the other side of the NBA.

The good name is: It is to allow Wang Zelin to grow up better, and to experience the world of adults by the way.

Even though the NBA is far more "civilized" than it was in the last century, certain things are inevitable.

After all, compared with the NBA, the CBA can be said to be too kind. Both Zhou Yang and Tom Bruce agree that Wang Zelin is still a little too young, and his experience still needs to be strengthened.

So, there is this scene today.

Rick Mahon and Charles Oakley, who are now his interior technical teachers, are mainly responsible for teaching him the tricks of the rim as well. . .How to properly apply small actions within the rules to protect yourself from injury.

In the words of both of them: "Falling your opponent down is the best way to protect yourself."

This protection is so strong!
As for Bruce Bowen, it is natural to teach Wang Zelin how to deal with various small moves outside the NBA rules.

Similarly, Bowen also said: Before he learns how to deal with it, he first has to learn how to use it.

Could this be the legendary "If you want to learn to fight well, you must learn to be beaten."

Although Wang Zelin himself is very disgusted with the use of small movements, he has to admit that Bowen's experience is indeed very useful.

There is a saying that goes well, without a sword and without a sword, they are two different things.

What he has to do now is to become an excellent swordsman, and only in this way can he protect himself without hurting others.

Another half hour passed

"beep!"

With a crisp whistle, a string that had been tensing in Wang Zelin's mind suddenly snapped, and he just slumped on the floor.

"Hoo! Hoo!"

Today's training is finally over.

Wang Zelin, whose physical strength was infinitely close to overdraft, finally had time to breathe a long sigh of relief.

"Good boy! I have to admit that your talent is indeed very good. Although it is definitely not comparable to the level of the big four centers, it is much better than your fellow Yao."

After the training, Charles Oakley walked up to Wang Zelin and handed him a bottle of water.

"Thanks."

"Oh, I can't see that you still have the strength to speak. It seems that you haven't reached the limit yet. The training intensity needs to be strengthened tomorrow."

Rick Mahon came over at some point, and fluttered a word.

"Farewell, big brother, please let it go!"

At this moment, Wang Zelin had the urge to faint.

"Okay, today's training is over, see you at the same time tomorrow!"

After today's task was completed, Ma Hong and Oakley left the training ground after joking about Wang Zelin.

"Zelin, do you feel reborn now?"

Zhou Yang, wearing a white tracksuit, walked in from the door, holding two dry towels in his hand.

"I went to the side, I didn't feel reborn or anything, but I experienced the taste of shattering my bones!"

Wang Zelin was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Yang now, and after taking the towel, he threw his head to the other side.

"Don't, it took me a lot of effort to find them, and the money was paid, so it's only halfway through."

"Additionally, it's your money!"

"Okay, I see."

Tucao returns to Tucao, but in Wang Zelin's heart, he is still very grateful to Zhou Yang for finding him these three old fritters to teach him his valuable experience in the NBA.

The talent system can give it to oneself, but if you want to realize it, you have to rely on unremitting efforts.
