MTL - Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife-Chapter 18 Preseason arrives

Phil Jackson voted for it, and Li Wan reciprocated: "Head coach Phil took good care of me, not only head coach Phil, but also Coach Phil Handy and a few others, they all took care of me. Plus."

When Kupchak saw these two interviews, his hand holding the coffee cup kept shaking in anger.

Wow, this old thing is really not a fuel efficient lamp!

In a simple sentence, the reason for not choosing Li Wan at that time was attributed to others. At the same time, he also affixed the label of "training master" to himself.

In the beginning, it was not that he did not choose Li Wan, but that when others coached, they did not tap Li Wan's greater potential.

Now that I met him, the real shining point of Li Wan was also inspired!

The more critical point is that Li Wan's attitude confirmed Phil Jackson's words.

A potential crisis allows him to resolve quietly.

When old Bass learned about this from Kupchak, he nodded helplessly.

As expected of the person who got his daughter, it is indeed not an easy task to deal with him.

Mainly, the old boy reacted too quickly. He just tentatively said that "China's newcomer will trade him when he is worth it", and the old boy immediately guessed that he was digging a hole for him.

However, Phil Jackson said so confidently that "Li Wan will be the biggest surprise among the rookies", Bass is looking forward to the upcoming preseason, what kind of performance Li Wan can play...

When an ESPN reporter interviewed Li Wan, he also mentioned that the first game of the preseason is about to come, and will he have some thoughts on this game.

Li Wan said bluntly: "No matter who it is, under such circumstances, they will all hope that they will perform well!"

In the NBA 07~08 season, the first game of the preseason for the Lakers was at home, and it was none other than the New York Knicks.

When Thomas saw this scene, he felt like he had the NBA commissioner targeted.

Now the outside world has spread that in the 2007 draft, Thomas originally wanted to choose Li Wan, but at the last moment, Wilson Chandler was re-selected.

The New York media was paying attention to the game, and they were looking for an excuse to let Thomas go.

The Chinese rookie performed well in the summer league. I heard that he beat Wilson Chandler, who was his opponent, very hard.

It's just that it was summer league, and no one would talk about summer league.

Although the preseason is not an important game, it is similar to the warm-up game, but in terms of intensity, it is not much different from the early regular season.

If Li Wan blows him up again, then the public opinion war can start first.

Li Wan sat on the bench and turned on his system to take another look.

"Vision: 85 (90); Possession: 65 (82); Passing: 31 (85); Mid Shot: 61 (82); Three-pointer: 60 (85); Drive: 57 (85); Layup:" 57 (80); Post up: 19 (50); Dunk: 58 (84); Dunk in place: 31 (45); Offensive card position: 50 (60); Air cut: 71 (84); :71(83);"

On the offensive attribute page, he has made a lot of progress.

It can be said that it has basically reached the level of the league's bench rotation.

It may sound only at the mid-level of the league, but he is most of the ability, not one or two of them. His comprehensive ability on the offensive end is not an exaggeration to say "half-step starter".

He is quite satisfied to have such growth in one summer.

"Li, get ready to play!"

Phil Handy's voice suddenly came, making him ready to play. He didn't hesitate, took off his training uniform and walked to the players waiting area.

Maurice Evans watched Li Wan pass in front of him with a bit of disdain and a bit of hostility in his eyes.

This Chinese man really threatened his playing time!

"Look, the newcomer is here!"

"So soon? Let him go for the first substitution? Didn't it say that Phil didn't agree to choose him before, was it Kupchak's idea?"

"Kupchak is a laborer, it should be the idea of ​​old Buss."

"Man, when is the news for you, it's already outdated! Yesterday's media public day, Phil Jackson rarely praised people, saying that Li Wan was the biggest surprise."

"Normal, there is a saying in our hometown that all men have changed from eels, let alone old men!"

Li Wan stood in the waiting area, ready to play. The voices of the sidelines were heard in his ears one after another, but he ignored it. A handsome man, it is inevitable that people will talk about it. This is something in the Ganges River.

The Los Angeles media hyped up his summer league stats before, and with Phil Jackson's remarks, Lakers fans are very curious about him now.

Thomas, who was standing on the sidelines of the bench opposite, saw Li Wan and waved to the bench. Chandler took off his training uniform and walked in front of him quickly.

With a signboard smile, Thomas asked, "Are you okay tonight?"

Chandler nodded confidently: "Of course, don't worry, coach, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

After the summer league, Chandler trained himself severely, and now he is stronger than before, he thinks... This time he will definitely do it!

Satisfied with his confident look, Thomas patted his **** and let him play.

How strong is Chandler? During the Knicks training camp, he stood on the sidelines to see clearly. In the new season, averaging 10 points and 3 rebounds per game is not a problem. In this rookie, he definitely has the strength of the upper level.

No matter how Li Wan transforms, it is impossible to transform into one of the top newcomers in this session, right?

This is unscientific!

"beep!"

At this time, the referee's whistle sounded on the field, and the Lakers inside "Little Shark" Bynum beat the former "Little Shark" Eddie Curry to make the latter defensive foul and made two free throws.

An easy hit.

Li Wan was on the field, and Turiaf on the field took the initiative to say hello to him, and he raised his hand to respond. In the Lakers, Turiaf is one of the few people that Li Wan feels the least airy.

Odom also took good care of him, but the feeling of "I'm the big brother, you are the little brother".

On the other hand, Turiaf may have been a second-round pick, and he felt empathy for their rookies with poor prospects, and treated them very kindly.

It's a pity that the French's well-developed armpit sweat glands made him "avoid". Li Wan felt a little guilty about this. He wanted to hug Turiaf more when he had a serious cold, and he should apologize.

Hearing the footsteps approaching, he turned his head to look, and Wilson Chandler was looking at him intently.

"I didn't expect to meet so soon, but why didn't your mouth twitch this time?"

While speaking, Li Wan glanced at Thomas on the bench next to him, intentionally or unintentionally.

The "Smiling Assassin" was also looking at him, looking at him, Thomas could clearly feel Li Wan's fighting spirit.

Chandler listened to his words, his brows furrowed, his whole body was tense, and he did not respond. He would use practical actions to respond to Li Wan's trash talk!
