The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 32 Lotto Draw

"What do you think about letting Kayce play point guard? This is a thought that popped up after I saw him today." Coach Brooks said to the coaching staff around him.

"Kayce's control ability is very good. On the back line, he has a height advantage and a wide vision. Of course, this is only a superficial advantage. The point guard needs to grasp the team's rhythm and better understand the team's tactics. Let's take a look first. His performance."

Although the assistant coach is optimistic about Li Ze's physical fitness, organizing an offense is not easy!
Take a look at the current point guard Russell on the team. After entering the NBA, he has also adapted for a period of time, and the head coach does not seem to like some of his offensive options on the court.

Coach Brooks has long discovered the team's problems. When Russell plays the main role, the team's offense is sometimes too impatient, but relying on unreasonable physical fitness, they can complete the offense.

This made the head coach scratch his head, anyway, the ball went in, and he didn't follow the tactics.
Coupled with the fact that Kevin Durant is more of an end point, this makes the team sometimes fall into blind tactics. Coach Brooks has endured it for a season!

Li Zexian shook fists with many tool people, and after a brief understanding of the technical characteristics of the tool people, the training match began.

Li Ze slowly controlled the ball across the half court and signaled the tool man at position 5 to come up with a pick-and-roll. Guigui had problems defending pick-and-rolls when he was in college.

Sure enough, nothing has changed now. Li Ze accelerated directly after the pick-and-roll, but Guigui didn't keep up with the rhythm. This made the inside tool man come to help defend, and the result was that Li Ze easily scored the ball to the bottom corner.

"Shua" scored 3 points in the open space.

The tool man indicated that Li Zechuan was beautiful, and Guigui was scratching his head at this time. He hesitated for a while when he was defending the pick-and-roll, but Li Ze rushed in with one step.

When Li Ze defended against the tortoise, he took an empty step and released him a jumper to block his breakthrough. Li Ze also went off the line to defend the pick-and-roll without being squeezed, which made the tortoise extremely uncomfortable.

"Kayce knows Russell's characteristics too well. After all, they played together in the NCAA for a year." Brooks said with a smile to the assistant coaches beside him.

"Russell is sometimes not smart enough to handle the ball. He can get rid of Kayce's defense after a few off-ball screens, but he still chooses to directly break through."

The assistant coach also made complaints about it, but sometimes he is unreasonable when he is in good health. The turtle is too fierce, and he scored the ball with the defense.
On the offensive end, Li Ze passed the ball quickly after halftime. After passing an off-ball screen from the inside tool man, he went to the low post and directly asked for a position.

"Shua" scored easily, and the middle distance near the baseline is his sweet spot, enjoying the bonus of the badge [Hot Zone Hunter].

Next, Li Ze continued to use his singles effect to frequently attract defenses to provide assists to the outside tool man teammates. Coupled with the continuous pick-and-roll, he also successfully fed a few cakes to the inside tool man.

On the other side, Guigui breaks through and points the ball, Durant breaks through and divides the ball, Guigui occasionally plays a few singles, and Durant plays a few more singles.

"I've decided, I want to sign Kayce, not only because of his physical fitness, but also because he has a great grasp of the offensive rhythm!" Coach Brooks was completely impressed by Li Ze's performance.

"But Presti seems to be very optimistic about Blake Griffin and James Harden." The assistant coach knows the players that the general manager is optimistic about.

"It's okay, I will convince him. Of course, we have to look at the performance of these two players again. I hope we can get a higher lottery!"

Coach Brooks is now focused on reforming Li Ze to play point guard, and he wants to say goodbye to blind tactics!
In the evening, Guigui, Durant, Jeff Green and Li Ze went out to have fun together. They often go this time and can drink.

"How do you feel, Kayce, I think the team is very suitable for you, so that we can play together again!" Guigui came up to make a lot of comments, and then directly invited Li Ze.

"I feel great, but the lottery draw hasn't started yet. We have to wait until the 18th. It's too early to talk about this now." Li Ze also took a sip of his wine and replied casually.

"I think the team will have a good pick. Presti can always do his job well, and Brooks really appreciates you!" Durant is also persuading Li Ze.

"It would be my honor if the Thunder can select me. After all, I am also very much looking forward to the fact that we can play together." Li Ze stated directly.

"The Timberwolves also invited you to try out. Love, this guy has been looking forward to playing with you. He's bored to death over there, haha!" Turtle started talking again, and then teased Love.

"Indeed, he keeps calling me. To be honest, I don't like the weather in Minnesota very much." Li Ze also sympathized with the unlucky Love.

"Okay, guys, the hot girls have arrived, don't talk about this at this time, let's have fun!" Jeff Green saw that the girls had arrived, and decisively called everyone to have fun together.

"Unexpectedly, this is also an LSP, and he has the same taste as Harden!" Li Ze was a little speechless.

The time slowly came to May 5th. In the past half month, Li Ze went to the Grizzlies, Kings, and Timberwolves for trial training. Generally speaking, he gained a lot.

"Kayce, the Timberwolves really want to sign you. Their general manager has called me several times in the past few days." Chapman, who temporarily played as a sports agent, said to Li Ze beside him.

"That's great. It basically guarantees that I will be selected among the first few. In this way, the salary of the rookie should be good, and you can earn more!" Li Ze said while pushing the iron.

"This is a friendly service! I don't charge money. I read the song you sent me. It's perfect. The style of the song suits you very well. The voice of Miss Britney you recommended is also very good. She really doesn't care about singers. Is this the way?"

Ever since Li Ze sent the prepared song to Chapman to arrange recording, this guy has been stalking him.

"Her daddy won't agree to this, and do you think Britney is short of money? She's just a little curious. If she does vocal training every day and walks around like Taylor, she'll be yelling in a week. Stop doing it."

Chapman sighed helplessly. These days, can't even send money out?It's so hard to find a girl who works as hard as Taylor.

Taylor Swift, who is somewhat related to the Dutton family, discovered his musical talent as a child, and studied vocal music with Li Ze. Joanna also bought Big Machine Records for the two of them.

The Taylor Swift of this world is an extremely hard-working home girl. Apart from music, her favorite thing since she was a child is those bloody love novels. It is said that those novels have given her a lot of creative inspiration.
"The lottery draw is about to start, come on Kayce, this is related to your draft prospects!" Chapman urged immediately.

"Here we come. I hope the Thunder can draw a good lottery. After all, playing with Russell is pretty good!" Li Ze sat in front of the TV, waiting for the final result.

When he saw that the Clippers got the first pick and the Grizzlies got the second pick, he frowned. Let alone the Clippers, the Grizzlies are not his ideal team.

Li Ze was sure when he saw Thunder drew the third overall pick.

"It seems that the situation is not as bad as expected, and the Thunder has drawn a very good lottery!"
