I feel hot in the NBA

Chapter 35 The Wizards

When Lin Yang arrived in Washington, he called Yi Jianlian as scheduled, and the two found a Huaxia restaurant for dinner. As reported in the news, Yi Jianlian was indeed very introverted and didn't talk much in normal times. This was also the first official meeting between Lin Yang and him, so he talked even less.

Most of the time, Yi Jianlian was listening and Lin Yang was talking. Only when Lin Yang asked some questions, Yi Jianlian would say a few more words.

However, Yi Jianlian is not a shy person. After a meal, although he still doesn't talk much, his own personality is like this, and he can't change it, but Lin Yang can feel that Yi Jianlian and him have gotten a lot closer.

After dinner, Lin Yang and Yi Jianlian didn't continue to look for a place to play, and there was a competition tomorrow!Can't play too late.

Yi Jianlian sent Lin Yang back to the hotel directly.

"Brother Yi, work hard tomorrow!" Lin Yanglin encouraged Yi Jianlian before getting out of the car.

Yi Jianlian smiled, nodded slightly, and replied, "Come on, too!"

"Row!"

Lin Yang got out of the car and didn't rush up. Instead, he watched Yi Jianlian disappear into the night while driving the car, and then went back to the hotel.

***
Seven o'clock in the evening American time the next day.

Verizon Center Arena.

As the home stadium of the Wizards, the attendance rate here is not high, and it has been in the bottom ten of the league. Especially last season, the attendance rate of the Verizon Arena was so poor that it could not be seen.

Last season was a very memorable year for the Wizards, because in this year, the management of the Wizards learned from it and finally dismantled the signs of the team in the past five years. Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison in the "Three Musketeers" were traded. Agent 60's days with the Wizards are definitely not long.

Even if the boss of the Wizards praised his training attitude as "very good", in the NBA, it is not uncommon for him to say that he is very good, and then he kicks that very good guy off, and even such things often happen.

All experts believe that Arenas will not be an exception!
The reason is also very good, because the Washington Wizards got the gem of the 2010 draft this summer-John Wall, in the template given by the scouts, he was described as "Derrick Rose who can pass the ball".

Therefore, the Wizards have no reason to keep Arenas at all. This guy who needs a lot of ball possessions will only hinder John Wall's growth.

Arenas will be traded, there is absolutely no suspense, it's just a matter of time.

However, after a turbulent year, although I don’t know what will happen in the future, the auditorium of the Verizon Arena tonight is full of Wizards fans. Judging from the quality of the boos Lin Yang heard during his warm-up period, he is a group of very qualified home fans.

Presumably they are still looking forward to the Wizards in the new season.

When Lin Yang warmed up for about half an hour, the lights on the scene began to turn off one after another. The Wizards' home ceremony began, and players from the Wizards walked out of the player tunnel.

Yi Jianlian came out in the first few, and his status in the Wizards is not as good as that of Lin Yang in the Mavericks.

Yi Jianlian's expression is not very good. It seems that the head coach of the Wizards Saunders has no intention of letting him play.

Sanders' style is a bit like Larry Brown. He can often communicate well with veterans and can create some beautiful offensive tactics for some talented players, but he doesn't have that much patience for the rest of the players. At the same time, he also likes to name and criticize his players in front of the media. He is a very demanding type of head coach.

And Yi Jianlian is obviously one of the other players left on Sanders' list.

Lin Yang couldn't help sympathizing with Yi Jianlian. His life was really bad. In the past two years, when he was under the supervision of the head coach, he had frequent injuries. Now there are no injuries, but the head coach doesn't trust him anymore.

If Yi Jianlian can meet Popovich, it is not necessarily that he will not have playing time at all. You must know that Yi Jianlian averaged 12 plus 8 data per game last season.

Not long after, Arenas also came out, and his appearance raised the cheers a lot. It seems that although Arenas was a bit disappointing in the past two seasons, there are still fans of the Wizards who remember the brilliance he once brought to the Wizards.

Arenas' expression was also not very good. As the former boss of the Wizards team, now he has to play in front of the rookies. This is definitely a shame for the proud Arenas. It's strange that he can treat it with a normal heart!

Soon, the climax of the home ceremony came. As the future hope of Washington, the appearance of John Wall detonated the entire auditorium. As a rookie who had just entered the league this season, John Wall did not show any stage fright at such a huge cheer.Calmly shaking his arms, he looked around the auditorium from left to right, as if examining his townspeople.

To be honest, in Lin Yang's opinion, John Wall's appearance is indeed a bit old-fashioned. He is very suitable to play a role like the boss of the team. As for whether John Wall can really become the boss of the team... Hey, hey, this year's final championship in March Madness is our Butler University!John Wall and the University of Kentucky were eliminated in the top 8. If he really has the ability to become the leader of the NBA team, how can he not make it to the finals?

There is nothing to talk about, just not enough ability!

Lin Yang turned his head and glanced at the head coach of the Wizards, Saunders. The latter's hairstyle is very neat today. Every hair is facing the same direction. He should have used a lot of hairspray. Coupled with his plaid striped shirt and blue suit, the whole person looks very aggressive and has a strong aura.

This is the biggest characteristic of Sanders' coaching. Every time he coaches on the spot, his hairstyle and suit can always match well...

While Lin Yang looked around, the main players of the Mavericks and Wizards had already stood up on the field and were ready to start the game.

Tyson Chandler faces McGee and misses a jump ball.

McGee hooked the ball and passed it to John Wall.

Many people think that McGee has a problem with his basketball IQ, but in fact his basketball IQ is no worse than a player like Iguodala. A very simple example, McGee later won the championship with the Warriors. He can keep up with the Warriors. The tactical cooperation is enough to prove that his basketball IQ is definitely above most players.

There is another evidence that can prove that his IQ is not low, and that is his creativity in the dunk contest, which can almost be regarded as the most creative dunk among the dunks using props in NBA history.
