I’m Really Playing Basketball - Chapter 916
On the morning of October 18, 2022, the Warriors’ training hall.
When Holmgren, the third pick of the Warriors this year, came to the training hall, he felt that the atmosphere in the training hall was a bit special today.
Today is the day of the NBA’s new season opener.
As last season’s champions, it stands to reason that these Warriors players shouldn’t have that kind of nervousness.
However, although he is young, he can still clearly feel that at this time, the elders of the Warriors are also the champion veterans of the Warriors. At this time, the expression on his face is so nervous, expecting, and a kind of difficult to be strict. of sadness.
Because he is a rookie, although Holmgren is a well-known talent in the United States, he is also a potential rookie selected by the Warriors this year.
But seriously, Holmgren’s status is not high on the team as a whole.
After all, he’s just a rookie, what kind of status can a rookie have on a championship team?
Even the No. 1 pick, even a No. 1 pick like James in history, has been humiliated by a star like Davis.
Not to mention his mediocre No. 3 pick, even if he is an NBA superstar, a former Nets player, and Kyrie Irving comes to the Warriors, doesn’t he have to play honestly from the bench?
In the last Confederations Cup, Kyrie Irving played as a substitute, and in the final against Chen Xiao, even Kerr did not let him play.
Because of the bench, Irving and the team got angry.
If this is in the Nets, because Kidd treats Irving as his own son, he will get used to his stinky problems.
But in the Warriors, there is no father here, so naturally he won’t get used to his stinky problems.
And the Warriors have two champions, Morant and Alexander, on the backline. Kerr and the Warriors are not afraid of Irving’s rot.
And for Irving, if he really rots, he will definitely lose more than he gains.
After all, the Warriors’ current small forward, Wiggins, is a foreshadowing. Who would dare to give Wiggins a big contract this summer?
“Deceiving Kangxi”
No team other than the Warriors even gave Wiggins a long-term contract.
Wiggins’ talent is not high enough?
Was Wiggins not good enough in the playoffs and finals last season?
No, the criminal record is too taboo for NBA teams.
Wiggins’ previous record is nothing compared to Irving’s previous record.
At most, Wiggins takes a big contract to support himself. Although he says he doesn’t fight, he still plays in normal games, and he is not so thorny in the team, and he does things casually.
But Owen, who was holding a big contract, would always do things on the team, and then he would not play directly. Even his mentor Kidd couldn’t persuade him, and Kidd didn’t listen to his pleas.
Let’s just put it this way, as far as Irving is concerned, no team that has a pursuit will give him a big contract after his contract expires.
So, for Irving, now with the Warriors, he’s the one who needs to redemption himself.
If he passes up the Warriors’ redemption opportunity, there will be no chance for him in the future.
So, what’s going on with Irving right now is that Irving needs to beg the Warriors, not the Warriors are asking him.
So, even though Irving is a superstar in the NBA and one of the strongest players in singles, no one on the Warriors is used to him.
If he can’t see this situation clearly, then the Warriors should just dismiss him.
In fact, although Owen is thorny, he is not a fool.
After the Confederations Cup incident, he was missing for two days, and then returned to the team immediately and apologized for his immaturity in the Confederations Cup in front of the team and head coach Kerr.
It can be said that Owen apologized in public, but the young Holmgren was stunned.
The previously unattainable NBA superstar actually had such a low-pitched moment.
And even if they apologized, the Warriors did not forgive him, but let him return to team training. As for whether he can win back the trust of the coach and his teammates, Irving needs to prove himself with practical actions.
This is called after-effects.
So, the original team of such a strong Warriors team will show such a look at this time?
Isn’t it just the season opener?
As a rookie, he will not be so nervous in the first game of his career.
Filled with questions, Holmgren carefully picked up the ball for the team’s seniors.
And just when Holmgren was thinking about these messes.
The door of the team’s training hall suddenly opened again.
It was not one person who pushed open the door of the team’s training hall, but a crowd of people.
Holmgren looked over and saw that the group included the team’s two owners, Wang Zhizhi and Battelle, the team’s retired meritorious adviser and lifetime honorary chairman Jerry West, and the team’s head coach Stephen Cole.
These are the superstars on the team.
And these people are not even the ones in the middle.
The two team owners, Wang Zhizhi and Battelle, were even the ones who pushed the door.
And Jerry West and Kerr, the two NBA legends, are not the ones walking in the middle.
When Holmgren saw the man surrounded by Cole and Jerry West, the ball he had just picked up fell to the ground again.
At the same time, he also understands why the original veterans of the Warriors are so unhappy today.
Obviously, the team’s original veterans brought out by these basketball gods knew early on that God would come to the team’s training hall today!
Yes, Holmgren doesn’t have God’s contact details, but the Warriors’ original bigs certainly have.
And God, must have told them in advance, he came back today to see everyone.
Seeing the nervous, anticipation and complicated feelings of the team’s native seniors just now, they all flocked to Chen Xiao’s side like little brothers.
Holmgren looked at Owen who was training there with a complicated expression.
Yes, at this point, for the Warriors as a whole, that’s really a stark difference.
The native elders at the top of the team’s food chain and Chen Xiao were happily reminiscing about the old days.
The newcomers to the team are very cramped at this time.
Let’s just say, the living basketball **** is right in front of them, and they definitely want to say hello.
No one can ignore the existence of the basketball god.
However, looking at the current situation of the team’s original veterans, if anyone dares to go to God to open it at this time, then they will definitely wear small shoes in the team in the future.
We haven’t finished reminiscing with Big Brother, which onion are you worthy of appearing by our side?
We were brought out by the boss from the beginning of the rookie.
What are you people?
Let’s just put it this way, these original veterans of the Warriors, they have their own ecology, don’t look at them usually don’t bully rookies like Holmgren and general team rookies.
But no matter how good they are, they are not a circle.
Like Durant and the Warriors’ Green, Curry, Thompson in history.
Green, Curry, Thompson, they’re always in the same circle.
Even if Durant and Green usually play well, it’s a superficial relationship.
After losing Chen Xiao, the Warriors inevitably lost the strongest super cohesion of the Warriors before, that is, any newcomer can integrate into the collective by Chen Xiao’s side.
But now, the Warriors, like other teams, have such a circle and a culture of xenophobia.
This is actually unavoidable. The Warriors in history are actually a very harmonious team in the NBA, but can’t they tolerate a Durant?
Even many fans have made up jokes that the Warriors, except for the core group Curry, Thompson and Green, and others, are all tool people.
Chen Xiao can naturally see this, how can he not see such a clear distinction.
Therefore, after chatting with these former teammates of the Warriors, Chen Xiao did not even forget the new players of the Warriors who had no friendship with him.
“Kyrie, I heard what Jason said about you in the Nets, and Jason told me that he doesn’t regret seeing you as the future of his coaching career, you are still the most talented and most talented he has ever coached. One of the quality players, you don’t need to prove to anyone that you’re a real powerhouse, it’s a shame to part ways with you, but everyone needs to look forward, Jason said, and he needs to get used to leaving your basket now Nets, hope you can adjust well to leaving the Nets team, hope you can have a happy career here.
There’s a group of great teammates here, and a group of great fans, and I think you’ll love it in the future. ”
Because of Kidd’s relationship, Chen Xiao and Owen are not strangers. He even accepted Kidd’s escape and trained with Owen.
Therefore, it was no surprise that Owen took the initiative to greet Chen Xiao.
However, Owen was very, very surprised by what Chen Xiao said.
He was surprised that Kidd still didn’t hate him…
Thinking of what Chen Xiao said just now that Kidd needs to adapt to the Nets without him, Irving clenched his fists tightly.
It’s impossible to say that you don’t regret it.
In the Nets, because of the full support of Kidd like his own father, he had as much fun as he wanted.
Just like Chinese children don’t feel how precious their parents’ care is when they haven’t left their parents.
It was not until he left his parents, left his family, went to the society, and was beaten by the society that he knew how touching and sad his parents’ care was.
Sad that I did not cherish this love properly.
At this time, Owen felt that way.
In front of Kidd, he is a treasure.
And in the Warriors, these days tell him that in the Warriors, he is a piece of grass, a weed that will be discarded at any time when it is useless.
Therefore, after hugging Chen Xiao, Owen, who was dubbed the stadium fairy by fans, became even more melancholy.
There is no regret medicine in this world.
The only thing he can do now is to look forward and prove himself again in the Warriors, as his mentor Kidd said.
Starting with Irving, Chen Xiao greeted the new players of the Warriors one by one.
And they came with the original players of the Warriors. Because of Chen Xiao’s connection, the atmosphere of the Warriors is unbelievably good.
Seeing this scene, Cole next to him was both satisfied and regretful.
In the past, he could have Chen Xiao, and Chen Xiao’s leadership could be used as he wanted.
But now, he has lost Chen Xiao, and all he can have is the right to use it for one day.
Even Chen Xiao’s one-day usage rights have benefited him and the Warriors a lot.
Seeing the team’s rookie Holmgren hugging Chen Xiao, his whole body trembled with excitement.
Many people say that Chen Xiao’s team will have a qualitative improvement in the team’s atmosphere.
It can be seen from Holmgren’s expression at this time.
Why can Chen Xiao improve the atmosphere of the team qualitatively?
Chen Xiao is really the perfect idol on the basketball court.
Whether it’s on the court or off the court, you can’t see any black spots on Chen Xiao at all.
For NBA players and many young basketball players, Chen Xiao is the existence that can be their lifelong idol, and there is no need to worry about the collapse of Chen Xiao’s personality.
Therefore, as long as you are a person who really loves basketball and really plays basketball, you will worship this basketball **** who makes basketball to the extreme.
If you can be treated so intimately by the **** of basketball, even if you are a super thorn, it will be difficult for you to thorn in front of him.
When Chen Xiao returned to the Warriors’ training hall this time, he was warmly welcomed by the Warriors.
In fact, Chen Xiao returned to Golden State this time because of the opening game. Not only was he welcomed by the Warriors, but the fans of the Warriors and Golden State welcomed Chen Xiao to the extreme.
A week before the opener between the Warriors and the Nets, local fans in Golden State launched an online campaign to open the bronze statue of Chen Xiao outside the Basketball Gods Arena.
Not only punch cards, but basically every day online, there will be activities organized by fans in the square outside the arena.
It can be said that after this week’s warm-up, the local Golden State team’s enthusiasm for Chen Xiao’s welcome has almost reached its peak, just waiting for Chen Xiao to come.
And Chen Xiao, who brought the team back to Golden State last night, thoroughly felt the enthusiasm of Golden State fans for him.
Let’s just say, the long road from the airport to the hotel where he and the Nets were staying was brightly lit.
Not only the various buildings along the way, but the houses spontaneously turn on all the lights.
More than the hundreds of thousands standing on the way, UU reading www.uukanshu.com and possibly even millions of fans, spontaneously used all kinds of lights to spread an avenue of stars for Chen Xiao to welcome him back.
“When you leave, you will be greeted with glory all over your body, and when you return, you will be greeted by millions of stars!”
This is the largest local newspaper in the Golden State and today’s front page headline for one of the largest newspapers in the United States, the San Francisco Chronicle.
The accompanying picture is a star-studded aerial shot of the millions of California and Golden State fans who welcomed Chen Xiao’s return last night.
This aerial photo was also rated as one of the most classic photos in basketball history by netizens on the Internet.
Even one of them can be removed.
Walk away with honor and return home!
Just like NBA superstar James commented on the Internet: “God, he really has the most perfect career. Every time I see these, I am envious and make me crazy!”
