Superstar Tyreke

Chapter 77 Tyreke and Jimmy
"Hello, is that Jimmy Butler?"

"Yes, I am, you are.?"

"Your new teammate, Tyreke Evans."

"Ah?! Tyreke Evans!!" I just heard the team's general manager Petrie say that a large part of the reason why I was selected by the team was because of Tyreke. Jimmy Butler couldn't help being a little surprised by Tyreke's phone call.

"Do you know where the Tyreek Basketball Training Center is? I want to chat with you, I will wait for you there"

"Okay, okay, I'll be there later." As soon as he signed with the team, the boss of the team took the initiative to find him, and Jimmy Butler naturally agreed.

After a while, Tyreke was still practicing shooting in the arena. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tall and thin figure standing at the entrance of the arena. It was Jimmy Butler. He didn't know how long he had been here.

Tyreke threw the ball in his hand at will, and then went straight to Jimmy Butler.

"Hey, Jimmy! You came so fast!" Tyreke opened his hand and gave Jimmy Butler a bear hug.

"It's okay, I'll take a taxi." Jimmy Butler was a little at a loss when he saw that a star like Tyreke was so enthusiastic about him.

Tyreke let go of Jimmy Butler, and looked him up and down. He was dressed in an inconspicuous red and white sportswear, with a clean cropped cut, and still looked a little green, although Jimmy Butler's He is 5 days older than Tyreke, but he is the oldest rookie who has just left college, and he does not have the maturity that Tyreke naturally exudes.

Seeing that Tyreke was silent, Jimmy spoke first: "Thank you, Tyreke"

"Uh, why do you want to thank me all of a sudden?" Tyreke asked puzzled.

Jimmy rubbed his buttocks and laughed, "It's the first time I participated in the team's press conference today. After the conference, Mr. Petry told me that a large part of the reason why the team chose me with the 27th pick was because Because you and I know I wasn't a standout in this draft class, and I predicted I wouldn't even make it to the first round, and now I'm drafted at No. 27, which is really exciting."

Jimmy restrained his smile and said solemnly: "Tyreke, I really appreciate you for being so important to me. To be selected with the 27th pick in the first round, I can get a very lucrative contract in my opinion. I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, I can put all my thoughts on playing.”

Hearing what Jimmy said, Tyreke couldn't help but sigh with emotion, even if such a Jimmy Butler is not gifted, with such a playing attitude, he must be able to become a talent the day after tomorrow!
"That's right, that's good, you just have to play basketball wholeheartedly, and your stage will be very broad in the future."

"Tyreke, although I didn't know you before, I don't know why you strongly recommend me to the team. I know that even the team management, even Mr. Petri, they don't think much of me. I think you must be under a lot of pressure to do this?" Jimmy thought of Mr. Petri's tepid attitude towards him, and then thought of himself being recommended by Tyreke, and couldn't help worrying about Tyreke.

Tyreke waved his hand and said indifferently: "No pressure, what pressure can there be, I believe you will be able to succeed in the NBA, I can see the real tenacity from you, I believe you will become the team's leader soon The backbone!"

Jimmy became a little embarrassed when Tyreke praised himself so much, "I will try to be a good role player on this great team, and I will try my best to be a low-key bulldog next to you. !"

Tyreke smiled and hugged Jimmy, "You have to have greater confidence in yourself. Talent, age, etc. are not the most important things. With diligence and hard work, you can reach heights that ordinary people can't reach. Step by step , I believe that you are not just a role player, but can become a real star!"

"When you want to train in the future, come to the Tyreke Basketball Training Center, and we can train together and grow together!" At this time, Tyreke faced Jimmy Butler, who was the same age as him, and completely showed his strength. The momentum of the deputy big brother.

"A star? Don't dare to think about it. I don't dare to think about it yet. I know that I am not favored by the team management. I will fight for playing time now. Once I play, I will do my best!" Jimmy said firmly, and then weakly Ruo asked: "Terek, can I really train with you in private?"

After all, Jimmy Butler is just a rookie who has just entered the NBA and hasn't played a game yet. Stars like Tyreke who have made some achievements in the league are quite great in front of him.

"Of course. From now on, we will be teammates on the court and brothers off the court. Would you like to let me test your strength now?"

Jimmy's eyes widened, "Okay, I haven't played against a star as strong as you before!" Facing Tyreke's suggestion, Jimmy was eager to try, and he could compete with a top player in the league like Tyreke before officially playing in the NBA. For Jimmy, who has just left college, it is very eager for players to play against each other.

Jimmy took off his coat, wearing a gray vest underneath, and walked onto the court with Tyreke.

Tyreke threw the ball at Jimmy, "Come on, you go first!"

Jimmy catches the ball, with both hands dangling from his waist, and bends over to attack.

Jimmy Butler doesn't have any particularly strong offensive means now, and it's obviously unrealistic to simply rely on his body to break through Tyreke's defense. Although Jimmy is taller than Tyreke, he still seems a little bit taller after leaving college. Thin, and Tyreke, who is about to enter the third season of his career, is far stronger than him. For a while, Jimmy completely found a way to attack.

In the end, Jimmy had to be tough and pull out his hand!Just hit the Nets...

Jimmy clapped his hands in frustration, shook his head and ran to the basket to pick up the ball.

The ball was given to Tyreke, Jimmy set up a defensive posture, and Tyreke smiled while dribbling: "Ready?"

Jimmy Butler nodded silently, but his attention was entirely on Tyreke. Seeing Jimmy's focused expression, Tyreke smiled and suddenly launched an attack.

Tyreke unhurriedly broke through to Jimmy's right. Jimmy did not lose his position and stuck to the defense obliquely. Tyreke suddenly stopped suddenly, and changed his breakthrough route to Jimmy's left with a cross step change direction. Jimmy also immediately counterattacked, but Tyreke was already half a body ahead of Jimmy, leaning on Jimmy for a backhand layup!

"Hey... so strong!" Jimmy picked up the ball and slapped it hard twice.

Although Tyreke scored the goal lightly, but Tyreke could see that Jimmy Butler's basic defensive skills are quite good. Tyreke did not completely pass Jimmy. He wasn't completely out of position. If he wasn't strong enough, he might have interfered with his layup...

"Come on, let's continue!" Tyreke shouted at Jimmy...
