The Whip of the God of Basketball - Chapter 364

The summer of the NBA is always rushed. In September, players who fished and vacationed began to return to the court. They either started training camps together, or they had to find trainers for intensive training. The smoke of last season has gone, and all the pain, loss and helplessness can disappear in a summer, because the new season is about to begin.

Every year before the start of the new season, every team looks strong, every player looks ready for the outbreak of the new year, every rookie seems to prove that he can be here on the new stage survive. Of course, everyone knows that this is just a beautiful scene before the beginning of the battlefield, just like those soldiers who wore straight uniforms and high spirits before they were sent to the front. After the war begins, death and flesh and blood will let them experience what it is. cruel.

The same is true for the NBA. Before the start of the season, reporters and fans will always pay attention to and dig out the little details and changes of the team. Who is here, who is gone, who is training where today, who ran to meet the old man tomorrow, and who followed a certain retired superstar to learn skills. In short, hopeful people are always interested in things and are eager to discover something they want to see-for example, our team will rise next season.

And when the season really begins, when the lineups, combinations, and new player skills that have been fantasised in the offseason have vanished in failure after failure, there will be no more attention to trivial news. Everyone is clamoring for a deal, a replacement, a new coach, or simply, look forward to the next season.

Now, the Phoenix Suns fans and media are in the first stage, drawing a blueprint for the bright prospects of the Suns next season. However, it seems that many people are not very satisfied with the operation of the Suns this summer. Although they won three consecutive titles with coach Fox Leon, they lost the Brazilian Lightning Barbosa in the draft, and then added some players who are not good enough, such as Jasco, who has proven to be unfit for the NBA. Visius, Brent Barry, who has grown old and can’t fly anymore, has a towel master Turiaf, and a Puerto Rican boy from the Mavericks trade. All the signings look like None of them are reliable.

As for the two players won in the draft, a younger brother of Gasol, yes, everyone only remembers that this guy is the younger brother of Gasol; there is also Dudley from Boston College who can’t run fast and can’t jump high. The forward, people don’t know how to choose such a person in, apart from adding another guy from Boston to the Suns, what’s the point.

And the team’s core lineup is still the same, Nash is still at the mVP level, but he is one year older; Stadamyer still looks like he can’t defend and will continue to do so; Sean Marion still doesn’t. Shooting, and with Stadameier’s return, his role is diminishing; Boris Dior faces similar problems, when Stadameier is there, it is difficult for him to play his best role, the magic of 2006 The performance no longer exists; as for Lagarber, he is good, but also good.

Faced with such a situation, the entire Phoenix basketball community is talking about it. The only news that makes them feel good is that D’Antoni is willing to stay in the Suns to coach, and then the **** Fox-Leon did not win the trust of the city. . Yes, the Phoenix people called Leon “the-damn-“, **** Leon. It’s not just the Phoenix people who call it that, the entire West, but any team that likes offense, no one will like Fox Leon and his Boston Celtics.

In recent years, no matter what kind of gorgeous whirlwind offense the Suns have played, there is always no way to meet two teams, one is the San Antonio Spurs and the other is the Boston Celtics. Especially the Boston Celtics. Leon, who was still coaching in Boston at the time, always led the Celtics to kill the Suns with a tough defense every time he came to Phoenix. There were some ugly methods among them.

Now this guy has come to Phoenix. Many people are worried that he will transform the Suns to be as ugly as the Celtics, and the enthusiastic Arizonans don’t like his team to become defensive first and pursue the “ultimate defense.” Team. They need hot dunks and hot three-pointers.

Under this kind of doubt, at the end of September, the Phoenix Suns’ rookie training camp opened on schedule. This is a habit of Leon. When the team’s personnel changes significantly, he will open a training camp for the newcomers. Meet with everyone and train and adapt together. This makes it not too unfamiliar when the real training camp of the team starts in October.

Because Marc Gasol has to fulfill his contract in Spain, there are a total of five players in this rookie training camp.

The location of the training camp was set in the Arizona State University gymnasium. On the day that the training camp started, Leon got up very early. Now he lives in a high-end apartment in Phoenix and has purchased a three-handed Toyota. In the morning he drove directly to Lake Wahasu City.

Arizona State University has five campuses and one sub-university. This sub-university is a small undergraduate college located in Lake Wahasu, west of Phoenix. After Leon arrived at the gymnasium in Lake Wahasu City, he contacted the school and opened the door. After that, part of the Suns staff arrived here. Regarding Leon’s insistence on opening a newcomer training camp this time and putting the training hall in this place, the boss Savo didn’t understand. This not only costs extra rent, but also requires employees to come here to work. You must know that players need to train, and the help of trainers is indispensable.

But as the team’s new coach, Leon insists on doing this. Before the start of the new season, the boss is of course as satisfied as possible. Leon looked at the gymnasium on the Wahasu Lake City campus. It was relatively small, a little rudimentary, with incomplete equipment and no physical therapy equipment. It was indeed not suitable for professional players to train here. However, Lake Wahasu City is a good place. It is a famous tourist attraction in Arizona. Because it is very close to Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon, many tourists will come here, and the most famous entertainment here is of course the jet Boat up.

At about nine o’clock in the morning, five players arrived in the arena one after another. In addition to the five of them, there were other marginal people who came here to participate in the training camp, striving to get a contract with the Suns to occupy a place. Such as Brian Skinner, Sean Marks, Lyndon Johnson and so on. In the face of the arriving players, Leon has been standing by the side of the court without saying a word, and everyone else dared to speak up, including old players like Brent Barry.

Leon is well-known among players, and his iron fist is also notorious. After all, he can be regarded as the first and only coach in NBA history to fight with players in the game, and he also beats players all over the place. tooth. When he was holding his chest against the wall, no one dared to come forward and say a word. Everyone spontaneously started chatting and warming up with the ball on the sidelines.

However, everyone is anxious. I don’t know when Leon will start training. It is said that he has a terrible off-the-ball training method that requires everyone to run and play through imagination. This is unheard of. The training method is said to be good by those who have practiced. However, Fox Leon didn’t seem to have the intention of taking them for off-ball training. He had been watching silently from the sidelines, not knowing what he was watching.

Jose Barea was the first one who couldn’t help it. Since he accidentally glanced in the crowd during the summer training camp~www.mtlnovel.com~, he was forced to leave his beloved Mavericks and coach Carlisle. Came to Phoenix and Fox-Leon. He still remembers that the day he was traded, Carlisle called him in the evening. He said on the phone that Fox-Leon is a coach who is good at observing and discovering. Although he looks cold, as long as he communicates with him carefully, he His wisdom is amazing.

So Barea took the initiative to say hello to Leon, but Leon looked at him, did not speak, and continued to look up to see everyone training by themselves. Barea didn’t know what medicine this guy sold in the gourd, so he could only go back to the court, and the big guy was training aimlessly. Unexpectedly, Leon hadn’t spoken all morning. Knowing that the training was about to end at noon, Leon finally clapped his hands and gathered everyone together.

Everyone thought that Leon would say something meaningful. For example, in the morning, he observed what everyone had discovered during training. The first half of the training of a few marginal people worked so hard to let Leon see. But Leon said: “In the afternoon, after lunch, everyone will go to Lake Wahasu to play a steamboat.” After speaking, Leon left the training hall and went to find a place to eat.

The players and staff in an arena are left at a loss. Are they here to play a steamboat?
