Chapter 40 We Need a Video Camera
The summer in Los Angeles is very beautiful. It is not without reason that it is called the City of Angels. It has a pleasant climate in all seasons, and it is also a vacation destination for many NBA stars during the off-season.At this moment in Los Angeles, plenty of sunlight, silver sandy beaches, warm sea water, and long-legged beauties in bikinis are definitely essential.However, all of this has nothing to do with An Sheng. At this time, he is sweating profusely in the Clippers training hall.

"Not bad, good, there is progress, 300 three-pointers hit 196, this is your best performance these days!" The Clippers' shooting coach clapped his hands, with a smile on his face all the time , the guy in front of him has finally improved his shooting compared to when he first entered the training hall.

Also training with Anson is Eric Bledsoe, who was traded from the Thunder. He is also a rookie this year, and his three-point accuracy is naturally not comparable to Anson. He made 9 of 8 shots from the field, leaving the historical record for the number of three-pointers made in a single game at a famous basketball school in Kentucky.

But he didn't look down on Anson because of his shooting ability. He still remembers Chicago's steal and nail plate cap to his elder brother John Wall in Kentucky.Even after training with Anson for several days, he still can't believe that a two-meter tall man can run so fast, just like his idol LeBron.

The Clippers this season seem to be really ready to do something big. They started to sign three free agents in a row in the free market. In the first two days, they signed Randy Foye and 800 Signed Ryan Gomez for 3 million a year, a point guard, a small forward, which is naturally self-evident for the two rookies of the Clippers, even if we are rebuilding the team, and you are our favorite For rookies, they also have to compete for posts.

Sitting on the floor outside the court is Blake Griffin, the new core that the Clippers are preparing to train. Don’t look at him as a white man, but his father is a pure-bred black man, and his father also inherited his explosive power He has excellent physical fitness and excellent basketball talent, and as a big man, he has the same beautiful dribbling skills as an outside player. At least in An Sheng's view, such an excellent dribbling makes him feel inferior.

At this time, he has just finished recovery training on the sidelines and is watching the training of An Sheng and Eric Bledsoe. He has long heard that the team has signed two rookies this year, and one of them is Chinese. With astonishing physical fitness as him.

However, after the past few days of training, I haven't seen the amazing physical fitness, but I can see the shooting that the coach said needs to be continued. Is this guy really worthy of the 8th pick? ?Blake Griffin had the same suspicion in his eyes as the Clippers fans at this time. MOP?That belongs to the NCAA, and this honor belongs to the past tense.

Del Negro smiled and said to Blake Griffin: "How about it? Would you like to come to a training game to meet new teammates."

He has thought about this idea for a long time, three rookies Anson and Eric Bledsoe and Willie Warren (the second round pick of the Clippers), plus the signing of new aid Randy Fowler Yeah, Ryan Gomez and Brian Cook, plus Blake Griffin who didn't play a game last season.This season, the Clippers will usher in 7 rookies in the new season, and a training game can also allow him as a coach to better grasp the player's condition.

Blake Griffin naturally has no objection. He has long wanted to say hello to these rookies, although he himself has never played a game in the NBA.

Del Negro is not divided according to the starters and substitutes, but according to the time of entering the NBA. Young rookies or second-year students, third-year students are on one team, while other veteran players are on another team. , The Clippers are a team in the rebuilding period, and these old players are destined to be the Clippers' passers-by.

White Team: Eric Bledsoe, Willie Warren, Anson, Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan
Blue Team: Randy Foye, Eric Gordon, Ryan Gomez, Brian Cook, Chris Kaman

Eric Gordon is naturally a young player. He is only in the third grade this year and has become the Clippers' perimeter pillar.The reason why he was in the blue team was that Del Negro hoped that this game would be more exciting. The abilities of the rookies on the opposite side were definitely beyond imagination.

An Sheng attached great importance to this game. This was his first game in the eyes of this group of teammates and the head coach, so he said to Del Negro very seriously: "Boss, don't you think we need a game?" A video camera?"

"Camera?" Del Negro looked confused, "This is not an official training match, why do we need a camera?"

"I have a special habit. Every time I like to look back at my own videos to find my own shortcomings, so that I can better find my correct defensive position every time." An Sheng himself admires himself very much. The ability to make up stories without changing face.

Del Negro was completely fooled by Anson, and was moved by his player's desire to learn. If he could find out from Coach Stevens of the Butler Bulldogs, he would know that Anson, That's a guy who falls asleep when the team watches game tape collectively.

The cameras were soon ready as they wished. Although they were not as good as the cameras overlooking the stadium in official games, they were still better than nothing.

The blue team's ball-holding point is undoubtedly Eric Gordon. Willie Warren's flailing defense seems to him to be no deterrent, just two extremely fast consecutive changes of direction, he is completely Losing his defensive position, Eric Gordon stared at his right foot with his back foot, and directly and quickly broke through from the right, just like Willie Warren staggered.On the other side of the court, An Sheng had no time to make up the defense. With an easy pick, the blue team took the lead in scoring.

Del Negro, who was watching the game from the sidelines, shook his head. It seems that this young second-round pick is basically useless this year. Fortunately, he is still young and cheap. It is still feasible to throw it in the Development League for training. of.
