The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 30 Thunder Team Invitation

Clippers head coach Mike Dunleavy was more surprised when he saw Li Ze. The physical data he saw so far had already surprised him, but after watching the shooting practice, he felt that Li Ze would definitely be famous in the NBA.

"Swish" This is the sound of hollowing into the net, and Li Ze is shooting from a fixed point at this time.

"It's unbelievable. Kayce is not like a rookie at all. His basic skills are so good, his left and right hands are almost the same. I was really stunned by the ball-handling practice just now."

The Clippers trainer has already communicated with Dunleavy. Most NBA players have weak hands. After entering the league, they continue to polish their skills, and the weak hands will gradually disappear.

And the performance of a 19-year-old college player like Li Ze is really surprising.

"You guys will play 1-on-1 and 3-on-3 a few more times in a while. I want to see more about Kayce's performance. Although I think he is good enough, the process still needs to be completed."

Deng Lewei began to ask the trainer to observe Li Ze more.

"Kayce, come to a few rounds of 1v1, you're welcome, I know you can beat me." The bearded trainer began to greet Li Ze.

"No problem, but I really don't know how to release water!" Li Ze immediately responded with a smile.

"Come on, hit 6 balls first, Mr. Dunleavy is looking forward to your performance." The bearded trainer wanted to challenge Li Ze.

"No problem, you come first, after all, this is your home court." Li Ze directly served the ball to the bearded trainer.

Although the trainers of NBA teams may not be able to play high-intensity games in physical condition, they can still compete with the players in singles.

But Li Ze is a bit of a bully when playing singles, [ankle protection] + [marking master] basically let him not eat, in terms of coordination with his height, wingspan, and excellent athletic ability
In short, unless it is ability to crush Li Ze, ordinary players will definitely be crushed by Li Ze.

The bearded trainer had this feeling at this time, and the continuous change of direction after the cross-step dribble still couldn't get rid of Li Ze's defense. In the end, he had no choice but to make a mid-range shot with a step back, and the interference was also outrageous.

DeAndre Jordan grinned from the sidelines, it was too badly defended.

The bearded trainer didn't expect Li Ze to defend so well, so it was a bit embarrassing.

"Nice job, buddy, it's your turn!" He quickly served the ball, hiding his embarrassment.

Li Ze looked at the bearded trainer in front of him who was a head shorter than himself. After receiving the ball, he quickly made three threats. The opponent moved back and directly pulled out his hand.

"唰" has no pressure, and enters the net hollowly.

The bearded trainer continued to be embarrassed, and hurriedly served again, "Not bad, buddy, let's go on!"

Li Ze was still a three-threat. This time the bearded trainer took a step up, but it was easier for Li Ze. He released the ball quickly, accelerated the dribble with his left hand, took a step back, and made a drift shot.

"Shua" easily scored in the middle distance.

[Three Threats Veteran] This new achievement badge has greatly added to Li Ze, and made up for some of his lack of explosive power.

Dunleavy saw that the gap was too big, and hurriedly found a step for the bearded man.

"Let DeAndre defend. He just needs to practice defense today." The bearded trainer hurriedly asked DeAndre Jordan to come over. He didn't want to be blown away by a rookie.

"No problem, coach, I will definitely do a good job." DeAndre Jordan also wants to try Li Ze's level, after all, he is good at defense.

Li Ze received the ball and looked at DeAndre Jordan in front of him. He couldn't help but think of the little Jordan in his memory who was fed by Paul for a while.

The gap between the two is a bit big. In Li Ze's eyes, the rookie jumper in front of him is just a dish, with a large scope.

Facing Jordan, Li Ze released the ball directly, and made a simple cross step to the left to pretend to break through. After mobilizing Jordan's center of gravity, he directly pulled back under his crotch and shot a jumper from outside the three-point line.

"Swish" is still a goal, and the [Misplacement Expert] achievement badge allows Li Ze to not be seriously interfered with when facing a big man.

There is a problem with Jordan's defensive position. In fact, he only needs to cover Li Ze, instead of choosing this more aggressive defense.

"Cool, this ball is so beautiful!" Little Jordan felt that Li Ze's series of movements on this ball were very beautiful.

Serving again, Li Ze still simply released the ball. After dribbling the ball under his crotch, he suddenly made a feint, which directly shook Jordan completely away, and then made a simple low-handed layup to complete the attack.

"Okay, Kayce, perfect performance, let's play a few more 3v3, and the trial training is almost done." Deng Lewei saw that Jordan was free, and directly called Li Ze to the next round.

"No problem, I can do it anytime." Li Ze readily agreed.

3 vs 3 Li Ze basically didn’t attack much, mainly because the Clippers’ trainers couldn’t give him too much defensive pressure, a few simple breakthroughs, and after changing groups, he fed Jordan a few cakes, and the trial training was over. .

Dunleavy's eyes were already a little glistening at this time.

"Perfect performance, come on Kayce, I'll take you around the team's training hall, and try our restaurant's craftsmanship later."

After Li Ze left in the afternoon, Deng Lewei immediately found the general manager of the team, and he must sign Li Ze!

"Watching you play on the spot feels completely different. The trainers of the Clippers have no pressure on you. I feel that Dunleavy's eyes are shining!"

Chapman said a little happily.

"The trainer's physical fitness is poor. In fact, I have already put it away. It is a pity that Dunleavy has nothing to say about the draft. If they have the first pick, they should still not choose me. After all, the boss's opinion is the most important."

"That's their loss. I've fixed a time for you to go to Oklahoma City, and we can set off the day after tomorrow." Chapman flattered him.

"No problem, it happens that Russell is there too, so let's take a look at my good brother." Li Ze said casually.

On May 5, Li Ze came to Oklahoma City. This city gave Li Ze a good impression. Turtle-Westbrook and his girlfriend Nina came to pick him up to the training hall.

"Wow, Nina, I'm so sad that you actually chose Russell." Li Ze said in a funny way when he saw Nina coming over.

Nina gave Li Ze a blank look, and immediately said, "Russell is a dedicated man, why didn't Britney come with you?"

"She has been busy making up music credits recently, and she played too crazy a while ago." Li Ze quickly replied, this little sister who is also considered Britney, can't talk nonsense in front of her, otherwise she will definitely not be as good as him. .

"Get in the car, Kayce, I can't wait to see your trial training. Many people on the team are here today, and Kevin has been waiting for you to come." Guigui is impatient, and she is about to get into the car after pulling Li Ze Run away.

"Don't be in such a hurry. This is my manager, Chapman. You got those Taylor signed albums through his relationship." Li Ze introduced Chapman to him.

"God, I've wanted to know you for a long time. I like those albums so much. I think Taylor is the best female singer." Turtle immediately diverted her attention.

"Haha, in the future, if you want albums, autographs, and concert tickets, just ask me directly, and you will be satisfied." Chapman is a fine person, so he naturally began to match his interests, and the two quickly chatted together.

"Okay, gentlemen, it's time for us to set off! Russell, go drive right away!" Nina was a little speechless when she saw her boyfriend looking like a groupie.

Along the way, Guigui and Chapman chatted very happily, and only remembered their original purpose when they arrived at the Thunder training hall.

"Kayce, there may be one-on-one trial training later, Kevin should be there, you have to pay attention, he is very good in one-on-one!" Guigui immediately reminded Li Ze.

"Thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention!" Li Ze patted Guigui on the shoulder, signaling that he knew.

Team culture sounds absurd, but Li Ze believes that the current Thunder team culture is much better than that of the Clippers. After all, it's all bad fishing, and there are many players in the Thunder training center.

"Hey, Bro, it's great to see you here!" Li Ze greeted Durant and Jeff Green after entering the door.

"Kayce, you should have come earlier, we can train together, I guarantee that the trainers here are very good!" Durant said enthusiastically.

Jeff Green was walking fart and joking weakly, and many players also looked at Li Ze.

"Okay lads, let's warm up Kayce for a while and catch up later!"

Thunder coach Scott - Brooks greeted everyone immediately, it can be seen that the players like this coach very much.

"It feels good, the team is full of energy, we have to perform well in a while!" Li Ze thought to himself.
