After a week.

Looking at his handsome self in front of the mirror, Duke nodded in satisfaction.

Today is the day when the team starts its official training camp, and it is also his official public appearance in the team.

Duke is also prepared, not just for the incoming media.

Also face the upcoming rookie treatment.

The entire nba league does not have a particularly strict hierarchical status system, but an environmental culture has also formed during the nba's years of development, and an unwritten rule has also been formed.

When rookies enter the league, they must be teased by veteran players. This kind of teasing of rookies can be described as full of tricks.

It is common to let the rookie run errands, help the old players of the team carry bags and so on.

For example, Yao Ming and James were asked to tie the shoelaces of the team boss when they first entered the league, and Arenas went even further, directly putting shit in the shoes of rookie Blanche.

Of course, there are also some stars who are treated as bosses as soon as they enter the league, and the old players must not dare to make mistakes.

For example, Duncan, and the future Doncic, etc.

Duke naturally wants to do the second type, Jordan can't let him carry a bag when he comes!

What's more, the strongest Knicks are Crawford and Randolph, which is even more impossible.

The best way to avoid being bullied in the team is to show your strength.

And the most effective way to show your strength is to single out.

Randolph is not the same type as himself, and the result of the two heads-up is that no one can guard against the other.

Worthy of fear is Crawford.

Thinking of Crawford, Duke also has a headache. Now is Crawford's peak period, and Crawford at his peak is at an All-Star level. Can he beat him?

.......

Knicks training facility.

Randolph had a gloomy face. He thought he was the boss of the Knicks, and his limelight was taken away by a rookie in the off-season, which made him very unhappy.

It also made him full of resentment towards Duke. He had already made up his mind to teach him a lesson on the day of the team's training camp.

And he didn't expect Duke, a rookie, to play better than him when he arrived at the arena, and the suppressed anger completely broke out at this moment.

"fxxx! The current rookie is too crazy."

A roar sounded in the arena, and everyone was stunned.

Gallinari's heart tightened even more: "It's not about me, is it? I don't seem to have done anything?"

Seeing that no one answered, Randolph found Crawford again. He felt that Crawford, as the team's second child, was qualified to discuss this issue with him.

"Jamal, do you think this kid should be taught a lesson?"

"That's your own business, I'm not interested in these."

Crawford glanced at him, left these words and turned to practice.

Seeing that Crawford ignored him, Randolph walked away cursing.

At this time, Nate Robinson next to him heard the conversation between the two and ran over to find Randolph.

"Hey, Zach, I think what you said is very reasonable. This kid should be taught a lesson. Don't worry, I will teach him how to behave later."

Randolph was overjoyed when he heard the words, and felt that Nate Robinson became more and more pleasing to the eye.

"This is the qualified little brother!"

......

"Hey, rookie, get us burgers and Gatorade."

Duke had just entered the training hall, before he had time to look at his teammates around him, he heard a burst of domineering voices.

When he looked up, he saw a fat man yelling at him, it was Randolph.

Before he could speak, another voice came.

"Rookie, why don't you go quickly, waiting to be kicked in the ass?"

Duke glanced at the man again, a little surprised.

"Nate Robinson? Why is he here to join in the fun? By the way, he also plays point guard, oh, got it!"

Duke suddenly realized.

At this time, the teammates next to him seemed to have expected this to happen, and no one stopped it.

Duke looked around and found that Crawford was practicing silently in the corner alone, as if he had no intention of participating in this farce.

Suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then said unhurriedly

"Just because you two deserve to ask me to buy a hamburger?"

"Jordan is not worthy of coming!"

Of course, the last sentence was said silently in his heart, Duke was not so arrogant.

Then he picked up the basketball at his feet and threw it to Nate Robinson.

"How about this, let's play heads-up, I attack, you defend, play five rounds, if you can defend me for one round, I will lose, if I lose, I will buy it, how?"

Nate Robinson was overjoyed, this was exactly the result he wanted, he was not only torturing Duke physically, but also mentally torturing him.

As for whether he will lose, he has never considered this issue at all. Just kidding, he, a veteran player who has played in the nba for three years, will lose to a rookie?

"Come on, rookie, I will let you know the gap between you and me, and what is called nba."

The fish was successfully hooked, and Duke smiled.

The people around saw that there was a one-on-one fight, and it was not a big deal to watch the excitement, so they all gathered around, looking like a melon-eating crowd, even Crawford was no exception.

Heads-up begins.

Nate Robinson hit the ground serve to Duke, and then quickly stepped forward to play close defense.

Being at a disadvantage in height, he did not dare to let Duke shoot. Pressing the opponent is the best choice. He is very confident in his speed and strength.

Duke turned around halfway to protect the ball, and couldn't help laughing when he saw Nate Robinson who was 20 cm shorter than himself.

Then he made a direct breakthrough, but Nate Robinson quickly followed up, clinging to Duke, and the force from time to time tried to disrupt Duke's rhythm.

He was still spouting trash talk endlessly: "Rookie, is that all you can do?"

Duke ignored him, using the pivot foot as a support, turned around, and shot a fallback jumper.

Nate Robinson struggled to take off, but the height between the two was like an insurmountable gully, even with the best bounce.

"Shh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

1-0.

second round.

Nate Robinson was still close to the press, and Duke used the same method to break through.

In this round, Nate Robinson still did not lose his position. Seeing that Duke turned around and was about to shoot a fallback jumper, he rushed forward.

But who knew that Duke was just a feint. After pointing Nate Robinson up, he took another step forward, and then shot an arrow on horseback.

"Shh!"

Another hollow ball.

Nate Robinson was a little confused, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.

Third round.

Seeing that he couldn't guard Duke in the first two rounds, Nate Robinson started to play tricks, and all kinds of pulling and throwing elbows almost caused Duke to make a dribble error.

"Isn't that an old dog who's shady, then don't blame me for bullying you with absolute advantage!" Duke cursed inwardly.

Then he directly held the ball with his back, and went directly against Nate Robinson to chisel in, chiseled three times and turned back directly.

"Shh!"

Keep hitting!

......

After five rounds, the onlookers dispersed, leaving Nate Robinson standing still.

At this time, Nate Robinson still couldn't believe what happened just now, and a few words echoed in his mind.

"Who am I? Where am I? Give me the ball, I'm going home!"

And Randolph also lost that unruly attitude, stared at Xia Ze fiercely, turned around and went back to training.

Duke didn't bother to talk to these two. If nothing else, the two should be traded soon.

They are almost enemies, what else is there to talk about, the next time we meet, we will directly blow them up.

at this time.

"boom!"

The doors opened and head coach Mike D'Antoni arrived at the practice facility.

He looked around first, and smiled when he saw Duke.

Then he muttered a few times with the assistant coach next to him, as if he was ordering something.

After finishing the work, he walked up to Duke and said with a smile:

"Come with me to the office, I want to ask your opinion on some things."
