Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 30 Taunt and Response

The 76ers temporarily canceled the dinner, and it was not until the next morning that the team staff came to pick up the front and went to the team restaurant.

Zhuo Mei is waiting for news at the hotel.Although she had made all the preparations, she was still a little nervous, and she clenched her fists at Lian Feng: "Come on!"

Lian Feng laughed: "Okay."

The restaurant is built not far from the team training hall.The staff said: "This restaurant provides dinner for the players on training days."

"Does it have to be eaten in a restaurant?"

The staff took a look at Lian Feng, saw his thin body, looked down upon him, but answered his question patiently: "Of course not. In fact, our team's training intensity is not too high... because the team boss always If you don’t participate, no matter how much the rookies of the team practice. However, at least three hours of training time will be guaranteed on the training day. Training is usually arranged in the morning, starting at about 9 o’clock, and then you can choose to train Dining in a restaurant or going out to eat..."

"Oh……"

The staff thought for a while, and then said: "However, I advise you to listen to the team's nutritionist's advice in terms of eating... I mean, if you can become a part of our team... you are too thin It's like a high school student... It's hard to imagine that you're already 22 years old this year."

After chatting with the staff for a while, I finally arrived at the restaurant of the team training hall.

Except for Lian Feng, the other five trial players all chose a five-star hotel farther away, so he was the first to arrive.

But it didn't take long for other players to arrive one after another.

Lian Feng swept around the other trainees.According to the set of information given by Zhuomei, only two of the other five were more competitive, one was Stoudemire and the other was Miles.These two players, if Lian Feng remembers correctly, both ended up in the NBA.

This Stoudemire is not the bully Stoudemire.He is just a role player. Although he seems to have scored 30 points in a certain game, it is a pity that he can only be regarded as a small role in the talented NBA. draft, and ended up staying on those teams.What is more striking about him is his height of 185cm, which is a full head shorter than Lian Feng. In the NBA where there are so many people, he is an out-and-out dwarf.

And Miles is the opponent that Lianfeng needs to compete in this trial training, because they both have the same position, both are small forwards at position 3.It has to be said that Miles is definitely not short of talent.He is a high school student player, he is only 18 years old this year, and he must have his own merits if he can finally pass the draft, which cannot be underestimated.

However, in terms of height and wingspan alone, Lian Feng has an absolute advantage. With a height of 203 centimeters, he is 5 centimeters taller than the second tallest Myers, and his wingspan of 213 centimeters is not inferior to that of ordinary black players.The only disadvantage is his weight... Fortunately, among his trial training opponents, there are no talented future stars, and the others are not much stronger than him.

Hmm... It doesn't seem too difficult to stand out from this group of rookies.

During the meal, team coach Cheeks came to see them with several assistants.

The experience of Cheeks, the coach, is somewhat similar to that of Nash, who also transformed from a point guard to a coach.He only started coaching the 76ers this season. Like their rookies, he is also a rookie for this 76ers.

Lian Feng couldn't help but feel a little emotional, strictly speaking, Cheeks can be regarded as returning to the roots.During his player period, he was one of the absolute main players in Philadelphia. He helped the team win the championship in the 82-83 season.He was playing against Magic that season.When he was a player, he had top defense and top assist and organization ability, and these two abilities have also become his coaching style.It's just that at the wrong time, he encountered a team that was most unsuitable for him, AI and Webber in the last years, two ATMs who could only score.

Cheeks was a hard-working representative figure in his player period-or at least, the blacks of his generation had such characteristics.Looking at the six trial players, he calmly expressed his request.

"Listen, boys! You want to be in the NBA, right? Then show me your talent and basketball ability. Some of you are already quite famous, like you, Miles, young Texas basketball Sir! There are also people I don’t know, such as you...Small Yao Ming? Hehe, but listen up, I don’t care how good you have been in your own territory, here, no one cares about that. Want to get into the NBA Tickets, give me a good performance!"

It has to be said that Lian Feng still prefers the old man's speaking style.And several other trial players listened quietly.

"You guys have a lot to do in the next day, so I think we shouldn't waste time. Let me tell you as we go!"

"We will conduct a physical function test for you, and then a practical trial training. There are many items, and you must be mentally prepared... This is a trial training, not a child's play! Of course, depending on the situation, I may also arrange other things. Content, such as 1 vs. 1, 2 vs. 2, 3 vs. 3. Who can say for sure? In short, I have the final say on everything here! So... are you ready?"

Except for Lian Feng, everyone replied: "Yes sir, get ready!"

……

Lian Feng walked in the front and heard two people whispering behind him.

"Little Yao Ming? Look at his arm, it's as thin as my grandma's crutch."

"He is much shorter than Yao Ming."

Lian Feng turned his head, and it was two unknown players who were talking. If nothing else happened, they didn't even have the chance to appear in the NBA.So he didn't even remember their names on the information given by Zhuo Mei.

"Two shorties, do you dare to repeat what you just said?" Lian Feng countered unceremoniously in very fluent English.

The two black men are less than 1.9 meters, so it is of course reasonable for Lian Feng to call them short.In the United States, it's not a good idea to back down when you're being ridiculed.To integrate here, Lian Feng must first learn their way of doing things.

Suddenly, both players froze.

They were all surprised by Lian Feng's spoken language... Although it was not idiomatic, it was very fluent.

"He seems to have heard it."

Lian Feng stared at them and said, "You guys better apologize."

"Apologize? No, it's impossible. Are you unconvinced...Little Yao Ming?"

Lian Feng said: "Little Yao Ming? No, no, you have to remember my name. My name is Lian Feng. This name...you will remember it! Just a moment later, shortly after entering the training hall, it will To be a mountain that you can never get over to realize how disrespectful something was just said."

"Is it a bamboo pole... You can go through the physical test first. Let me guess, how high can you jump? This high? Or this high?" One of the players gestured twice at the knee.

Another player added in a timely manner: "The flea's leap."

The other three players naturally noticed Lian Feng's conversation, but they didn't participate.Trials are such a stressful thing, they can't relax enough to talk trash...and it's really pointless to face a stranger.

Miles and Stoudemire glanced at each other, both feeling that the two local players were a bit naive.But they didn't care about Lian Feng... In their view, Lian Feng had no other advantages besides his height... As we all know, Asian players' athletic ability and basic skills are very poor.

Lian Feng was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Then let's see who is the flea."

At this time, the staff in front turned around: "The training hall is here, remember, don't do other things without our arrangement. Come in, welcome to the legendary 76ers team!"
