NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 315 Sparring
The Suns have many new players in the new season, including traded and two rookies.

According to tradition, Russell invited everyone to a family barbecue and gave everyone a gift.

As a rich man, he is definitely generous, and he immediately left a good impression on the newcomers.

Russell has enough historical status now that the new players are doing well to deal with.

The one who is more difficult to deal with is Ray Allen. After all, this buddy is already a famous All-Star.

But Ray Allen is just not that noisy, his hobbies are more elite, and there is no need to worry about training. The team had Iguodala who was used to elites before, and Joe Johnson who didn't like to make trouble with others so much. Allen was a little more serious than the two, but Russell had no problem getting along.

In fact, Russell is not as noisy as other players, but he is not holding it so much.

He had private conversations with the new players one by one, talked openly and honestly about a lot of things, and in the team's training camp, everyone gradually became familiar.

Russell is both the boss of the team and the management of the team. He is a real guy when communicating with the players, and he quickly gained everyone's approval.

It's hard not to be recognized for a young man like Russell who is powerful and has social status.

Besides, the Suns have no thorns, the team is still dominated by young people, and the veterans are also the type with a better temper.

Like Hill, he is an elite type with a good temper. He is quite happy to come to the Suns and have the opportunity to win a championship and give himself a successful career.

Ray Allen came here to start. Durant, the No. [-] player, will have no problem focusing on training. Ellis became the team's new sixth man. Ariza finally got more opportunities. Everyone is basically satisfied.

That is to say, it will be a little uncomfortable for Millsap to become the team's starter all of a sudden.

The team still uses the old principle of using a stable starter as much as possible, but if Millsap's performance is not so good, the Suns can also start with a big and a small, and Hill can definitely be suitable for various roles.

Because Millsap is still different from Durant, he does not have such a high training value, if he does not perform well, he will not have so many opportunities, but Durant will definitely get enough opportunities.

Just like that, Millsap was also flattered, and promised Russell several times that he would work hard and not hold back the team.

It seems that after Varejao leaves, Millsap will become Russell's new number one dog.

Not giving Russell is not short of dog legs, and he is too embarrassed to lick the dog in the first year, and the young people behind are respectful to the boss of the team.

The same is true for newcomers, not to mention rookies.

Gasol, who is simple on the surface but is actually smarter, knows how to integrate into the team. Durant looks more reserved, but he soon regards Russell as a big brother.

Russell also took him to play social media, and Durant was really happy.

"We need to communicate with the fans more, and they will vote you as the All-Star starter."

"Kevin, I think your outfit is good, and your overall personality is very good. You look handsome, so you must post more on social media."

Durant nodded honestly, and then secretly tweeted about his interaction with Russell, secretly delighted to see the envious rumors of countless fans.

In summer, he still listened to Russell's words and practiced hard for three-pointers.

Now the three-pointer without confrontation is very good, but it may not be so easy to go to the game.

He is still too thin, but based on his performance in history, Durant's confrontation is not too bad, he should be a type with good bones.

Therefore, Russell just needs to help this buddy adapt to the league as soon as possible.

In mid-October, the Suns' preseason tour also began.

Stoudemire needs to raise his knees and will not play in the preseason.

Stoudemire's knee will not have major problems for the time being, but it will definitely not last a few years.

At that time, it was estimated that this buddy was no longer in the sun, so Russell just let him take care of him.

Although the Suns have to run in, because of Russell's strength, it is actually relatively easy for players to run in.

Ray Allen is plug-and-play anyway, and Durant is also ready to fight, but he just needs to adapt. Millsap and Marion have studied for a season and are familiar with many things.

Including the bench lineup, with Russell's scheduling, it will not be too difficult to run in.

In the absence of Stoudemire, the team's two rookies Durant and Gasol started together.

Because the king is worse than the original history because there is no Martin, and there is not much threat to the sun.

At the beginning of the game, the king was very aggressive, but was soon killed by Russell and Ray Allen.

The King's defense is so bad that Russell can play as he wants.

He also reminds new players that the Suns can't have problems on defense.

After Thibodeau left, Russell and Zhang Burke should remind more in this regard, the championship team cannot be without defense.

After the team took the lead, Russell deliberately played for Durant.

Before the game, he made an agreement with Durant to let him make a decisive shot, and he can play boldly if he wants to play singles.

He also greeted the rest of the team. The Suns spent so much to get Durant, everyone will understand, even if there is a little jealousy, they will not show it.

As an All-Star player, Ray Allen doesn't mind the performance of young people, anyway, he still has a contract.

On Hill's side, he gave more opportunities after coming off the bench.

Hill also feels good, becoming a strong energy on the bench with Ellis.

Attackers with the ability to hold the ball are much more powerful. Relatively speaking, players like Ariza are still a bit rough with the ball, and the team is also training him in a 3D direction.

Like Tony Allen and Korver, the Suns will do the same.

Practice three-pointers without three-pointers, and try to improve defense without defense. After the team has a few strong points, it is best for other teams to be 3D, which is also suitable for the development of modern basketball.

The King's defense is poor, and Durant's shooting percentage is not bad.

The main thing is that I didn't adapt so well, so some balls were not able to hit.

But Russell continued to encourage him, "It's okay, come again, you can do better, you just need to adjust some details, I believe you!"

Hey, hey, not only the king knew Russell's plan, but even the fans could see it.

Russell made the ball for Durant this time, and both Millsap and Gasol were very envious.

However, everyone has different characteristics. The team requires the two to do a good job of defense first, and the two have no complaints.

And Russell also gave them a second pass, and if he partnered with Russell on the court, no one would get zero eggs.

Russell played like this, and the king felt that he was a partner of the young Suns.

It's really annoying to spend tens of millions of dollars as a sparring partner.

But what's even more irritating is that they can't beat them like this!
