Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area
Chapter 60 Hornets Training Camp
Under normal circumstances, the summer league will start at this time during the NBA offseason in early July after the draft.
Speaking of it, every summer is the time for NBA big-name players and main players to take vacations, but... free agents, rookies, and even second-year students can't enjoy this leisure.
In order to gain the trust of the team and hit the team's starting roster, the summer league is their best stage to show themselves.
Of course...not all rookies are going to summer league.
Unless it is strictly required by the team, high-ranking rookies like this year's No. 1 pick O'Neal and No. 2 Li Shengli will basically not choose to participate, because these guys don't need to prove themselves in the summer league...
On the one hand, the team spent a lot of effort and a lot of money to win them, but it was not used to cover the bench. It is not a big deal to enter the team's starting roster.
On the other hand, participating in the Summer League as a high-ranked draft pick, those rookies and sophomores who were unsuccessful must have had fun trying to prove from them that they are not weak. In this way... if the high-ranked If a player is injured in a meaningless game, the team loses a lot.
Obviously, Li Shengli doesn't need to make a decision himself, the Charlotte Hornets have already chosen for him.
Regular season last season.
The Hornets have 31 wins and 51 losses, and are at the bottom of the East and third from the bottom. As one of the youngest teams in the league, they naturally have to work harder than other teams.
Without the team management talking too much, many players have given up their vacation time and spontaneously trained at their home base Charlotte Stadium.
...
Guys, as the head coach of the team, I thank you all for taking your precious vacation time to come to training. Hornets coach Alan Bristow said with a serious expression.
As the new head coach of the Hornets, he certainly wants the Hornets to achieve results during his coaching period. As far as the current situation is concerned... the players are still cooperative, and the Hornets are obviously holding back a lot of energy. .
Introduce our new teammate, Li! Bishop Alan waved to Li Shengli who was standing beside the team.
Speaking of which, Hornets bishop Alan Bristow has the same name as his elder brother Alan, who has always taken care of him when he was playing in Donka. next to.
Li, I don't think I need to introduce any more, everyone should know him! With Li joining, I believe that the Hornets this season will...can go further! Bishop Alan didn't say anything big, just said Go further' to describe the future of the Hornets.
Although Li Shengli, the second pick in the draft, joined this season, the team's lineup still needs to be adjusted. After all, one bite cannot become a fat man, and if the Hornets, who are at the bottom every year, dare to claim to win the championship...it will definitely be the laughing stock of the entire league.
...
Welcome, Lee! I have watched your NCAA game, and I have to say...you are definitely a reliable inside teammate! Hornets starting guard Kendall Gill was the first to welcome.
Oh, God, Lee, you're so tall! Muggsy Boggs said with an exaggerated expression. In fact, as the shortest player in the history of the league, he... feel high!
Li, don't be nervous, everyone welcomes you very much. I hope we can cooperate well in future games! Dell Curry also expressed his friendliness.
In fact, Li Shengli was a little nervous at the beginning, not knowing how to greet him, but everyone welcomed him so warmly, he also relaxed, and found a sense of feeling when he first entered Dongka.
These... are my future teammates?
Jill seems to be a good person, and he is the first to welcome himself. Boggs, a 1.6-meter man, looks like a pistachio, and Dell Curry is more like a big brother. Greeted him with a smile.
It's just... Larry Johnson, the head player of the Hornets, was expressionless and silent. Fortunately, Li Shengli didn't think much about it.
People are different, just like Uncle Kareem Abdul-Jabbarja, who is naturally a bit withdrawn. He looks difficult to get close to, but in fact he is an enthusiastic master... In Li Shengli's mind, Larry Johnson is almost like this Humanoid.
...
At the end of the mutual acquaintance session, bishop Alan signaled Li Shengli to return to the team, and then said a few words briefly.
Although it is the NBA offseason and the players spontaneously participate in the training camp, the coaching staff doesn't want to get angry and arrange a whole day full of training.
On the one hand, it's everyone's vacation time. On the other hand, after playing for a whole season, even though they missed the playoffs, everyone has been maintaining high-intensity training. After all, they are humans, not machines. Who doesn't want to relax? !
So... With everyone's consent, the training time is set at three hours in the afternoon every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, three times a week!
This kind of training intensity is really not high, but the benefits are also obvious. It can not only run in the lineup, but also keep the players in a relatively good competitive state.
...
The assembly conversation is over, and this time the training camp officially begins.
First, there was a half-hour warm-up exercise. Everyone took good care of Li Shengli, a new teammate, especially Boggs... who always stood beside Li Shengli and chatted.
Boggs, who is 160 centimeters, and Li Shengli, who is 218 centimeters.
The two brothers stand together, like an adult and a primary school student. The style of painting is very weird, but the teammates are obviously used to it, because Boggs and everyone have this style of painting.
Hey, Li, I heard that when you were playing in the NCAA, you knocked down all your opponents by yourself, not even the coaching staff? Boggs asked Li Shengli while warming up.
Cough... That's right, but why are you asking this? Li Shengli was a little embarrassed.
Speaking of it, he never felt that fighting was an honorable thing, but the outside world seems to pay special attention to this matter...
Oh, God, that's great! Boggs' eyes widened.
marvelous?
Oh, don't get me wrong, I mean... Boggs pretended to sigh and said, Well, you also saw my height. In previous games, there were always some fools who wanted to bully me. Although I I really want to resist, but in fact, I really... can't beat anyone.
Li Shengli nodded. In the NBA where the height of two meters is not considered high, if Boggs' height does not take into account the crotch tactics, he is really the type of bully whoever sees him.
So... Li, do you understand what I mean? In the future, if someone wants to fight with me, do you want to help? Boggs grinned, Don't worry, I won't let you suffer Yes, if the height is not higher than mine, I will solve it myself, and you will only let you do it if you are taller than me!
This... sounds like nothing wrong with it!
If you are taller than you, you can solve it yourself, but you are the shortest one in the league, okay?
Of course Li Shengli knew that Boggs was joking, but he also felt his lovely kindness... and Boggs also logically became Li Shengli's first friend in the Hornets!
Don't worry, if someone dares to attack you, I will definitely... smash their heads! Li Shengli grinned.
