MTL - Healing Basketball-Chapter 11 Lazy fellows who sympathize with each other
Chapter 11 11. Lazy fellows who cherish each other
Maurice-Cheeks, who was fishing, nearly fell off his chair.
This rookie... has the most beautiful face in the audience, and speaks the most heart-wrenching words in the gentlest tone.
Liu Xiu's remarks may not be a big problem in other occasions.
But in the summer league team, no matter how good the tone, attitude, or good looks, everyone who hears it will know that this is a mockery.
In addition to the eyes they looked at Liu Xiu just now, and the discussion that did not lower their voices at all...
Everyone knew that this was Liu Xiu's counterattack.
This is more lethal than those people's eyes and discussions!
Maurice-Cheeks got up and clapped his hands when the players were about to run wild.
Liu Xiu guessed that someone might come forward and even prepare for a conflict.
The biggest possibility is Quintel Woods, the 21st overall pick in the 2002 first round.
Although I don't know why this player with a contract looks the most unhappy, it's no surprise that if someone jumps out, it's probably this one... But Maurice Cheeks clapped his hands and stepped out with his left foot. Quintel Woods got his foot back... the kind of scared one.
"Okay, everyone has arrived. Let's warm up first, Kevin, you make arrangements for the group training of the project." After Morris-Cheeks finished speaking, he continued to fish.
Morris-Cheeks easily prevented a possible conflict.
Today is the gathering day. Most of the Blazers summer league teams came to look for jobs. Although it was very uncomfortable, on the first day, everyone’s emotions were restrained and they didn’t want to be regarded as thorns.
Quintel-Woods didn't jump out the first time, and others put up with it.
What if? In case that rookie is really a blessing?
In addition to self-comfort, there is no other way.
'Our coach seems to be quite dignified in the hearts of regular players, which is not the same as what Bill said in the news...'
There was no conflict, of course Liu Xiu was happy.
"Healing value +91, from Quintel-Woods."
"Heal +65, from Eric Barkley."
"Healing value +39, from Tita Carter."
“…”
“…”
"The available healing value is 5113 points."
Join the new team and win the first wave of healing points!
The new team has just been formed, and every player in the team looking for a job is at the most anticipated stage.
Even if it's just group training, some people will definitely have lower expectations and lower confidence... This will eliminate people. Maybe someone will be eliminated today. The day after tomorrow, the summer league will start on July 7th, which is definitely impossible. More than 20 people all went to play the game.
Compared with many newcomers who don't know what to do after being selected, Liu Xiu has already inquired about these things.
Generally speaking, there are two days of preparation time before the start of the summer league, the first day of individual testing, the second day of team training and testing, and some people are eliminated in the middle, until the number of people in the team is reduced to 15, and these 15 people are also Not all have the chance to play in summer league.
It’s not just that the team can give up players at will, players have to leave, if it’s just a summer league contract, players can leave at any time.
is sloppy, cruel, and casual.
But that's the thing. NBA teams don't have such high expectations for the summer league to be able to dig treasures. They will try it, but the most important thing in the summer league is to train newcomers.
Therefore, Liu Xiu had the opportunity to break the gun decisively, and this opportunity was not created by himself, but brought to the door. When he changed his jersey and came out of the locker room, many people showed strange eyes because of his figure. The words that didn't lower his voice also disgusted him.
Liu Xiu decisively guided him towards basketball-related matters and got the healing value, and Liu Xiu let out another breath.
However, not all of the more than 20 temporary teammates have given healing points.
Yesterday, Liu Xiu got a list from Bill Duffy. Most of the player information of the Blazers Summer League team is available, but there are not a few. It's just that when Bill Duffy was collecting the information, the Blazers hadn't made the list yet. It is included in the summer league team.
Compared with the data, Liu Xiu has been observing the reactions of temporary teammates since he first came in.
At the trainer's suggestion, Liu Xiu was going to the gym for warm-up preparations. She just turned around and was startled!
A black fat man is hunched over, trying to stretch his almost invisible neck to stare at him!
Randolph actually came to participate in the summer league! This guy will be in the third grade next season, he's a bit miserable.
There is no Randolph in the information given by Bill Duffy. Most of them are pure summer league contracts. He probably did not expect Randolph to be arranged to participate in the summer league.
But this is a fight? No, Lan Fatty's eyes should be curious, and Liu Xiu took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, handsome guy, hello, I'm Jess."
handsome guy!
This way of greeting Randolph was the first time he met, but, this word, he liked it!
Take a closer look, Liu Xiu's body type... Their passerby body type is quite rare in the NBA.
Favorite things like this, didn't this happen all at once?
"Hi, I'm Zach, you're new here, right? Just ask me if you don't understand anything."
Randolph's response was rather enthusiastic.
Looking at Randolph who turned around and walked to the gym, Liu Xiu didn't expect to say hello casually. The other party was like this... This is the American version of 'But he called me a cutie'?
…
When Liu Xiu and Randolph were warming up, the other players had already started various tests with the help of assistant coaches, trainers, and staff.
Liu Xiu and Randolph just arrived, and they didn't even do the warm-up work.
When Liu Xiu came out after warming up, he saw that Randolph had already started training.
"Occasionally leaked! Ouchyite! Summer league, summer league again..."
while practicing Randolph while spraying.
The coaching staff passed by, but there was no response. It seemed to be expected...
'This team is really interesting...'
Liu Xiu recalled the reactions of Quintel Woods and Randolph to the coaching staff.
‘The most important thing is to do your own thing first. ’
Zuipao is back to Zuipao, in the warm-up and testing sessions, Liu Xiu is very serious and tries his best to show his strengths.
Different from Liu Xiu's expectation that many people will come to him to provoke him. At the end of the day, although he has not communicated with some temporary teammates at all, as if there is a natural boundary between him and some teammates, except for the occasional one or two taunts. Or provocation, and no one really ripped his face, including Quintel Woods, who had seen him upset since he came to the training ground.
Just arrived in the summer league team on the first day and didn't want to cause trouble. It's been a few years since he stepped into the society and he became more mature. The initial discomfort passed and then he calmed down... These possibilities, Liu Xiu thinks, may be all.
And, not everyone is on his opposite.
He still got to know a few teammates and communicated.
Travis Outlaw, the 23rd overall pick of the same class, this high school rookie, the position is small forward, the name is very criminal, but he looks like a good baby.
Although Liu Xiu's words were a bit vicious just now, but looking at the harmless appearance of humans and animals, he looks good, compared to Quintel-Woods, a high school rookie, who doesn't look like a good person. Tello chose Liu Xiu's side.
This year's undrafted Matt Carroll, a brown-haired senior with a Lee Rock hairstyle, is a tall white shooting guard at 198 cm.
Ruben Bonteje, a player who entered the NBA in the second round in 2001, a standard big center with a height of 213 cm and a weight of 117 kg.
And Randolph, who has been complaining and complaining for a day, was in the same gang with Liu Xiu on the first day.
Most of the temporary teammates hadn't spoken yet, and Liu Xiu didn't care.
These more than 20 temporary teammates, most of them, may never see each other for the rest of their lives after this summer league.
This is not a high probability, but a certainty…
At 4:00 pm, the day's test is over.
Liu Xiu, Matt Carroll, Travis Outlaw, Randolph, Ruben Bontje stood together and formed a small team.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, these five people just happened to be from the 1st to the 5th position.
"Orlando's environment is really good, there are many museums and parks, let's go shopping, and then find a place to have dinner?" Liu Xiu sent an invitation to the people who communicated the most throughout the day.
"I have to train for a while to prepare for the game the day after tomorrow."
"I'm going to discuss with the trainer about my baseline counter-run attack frame..."
Matt Carroll, Travis Outlaw, and Ruben Bontje all stayed for various reasons to continue training.
Liu Xiu and Randolph left the training ground. It seems that no one left after the training arranged by the coaching staff except for the two of them.
"Zach, shall we go back and show our efforts?"
"Ah... yeah, no one left, but, Jace, I've shown everything I know, and there's nothing to show, how about you?"
"I showed everything I knew."
Liu Xiu and Randolph looked at each other, and the two felt sympathetic to each other.
Yeah! Everyone is lazy, so why pretend to be a hard worker?
Pretend for a day or two, with the stuffing behind, isn't it more embarrassing?
…
…
After a day of riding in the car, I thought I would arrive at 7 o'clock, but it was almost 9 o'clock before I got home. My whole head was muddy. Fortunately, I wrote a chapter after resting for a while, and there was no interruption.
Have a good night’s sleep tonight, and resume two watch tomorrow~ It’s always so troublesome to go home for the New Year, take it easy~
