Chapter 56 Injuries and training
Li Sheng woke up all of a sudden, but he immediately realized that what my mother said should be the TNT show last night, which was originally recorded live, and because of my existence, someone in China must have helped translate, otherwise my mother must not understand.
Of course, it doesn't matter if the old man doesn't understand or understand. As long as he can see his son, he is in good spirits and looks good. He is already very happy.
I talked to my parents for a while, knowing that they wanted to call Li Sheng after watching the show last night, but because it was getting late at that time - after all, it would take time for the show to be transmitted and translated for them to see.
Then I couldn't hold back until the morning, so I called directly.
Li Sheng felt warm when he heard it, and even thought of his parents in his previous life. Although they did not give him such a rich life now, their love for him was so pure, without any interest relationship.
I may not be able to repay them, but now that I have replaced my predecessor's identity and accepted his inheritance, it is also appropriate to repay my current parents on his behalf.
"Okay, okay, you should have something to do over there, so let's stop talking here, let's not talk for now."
It was Father Li who was more sensible and forced to hang up the phone. Before hanging up, Li Sheng could even hear him complaining in a low voice that Mother Li had been occupying the phone and didn't let him say a few more words, so he couldn't help laughing.
But looking back, I don't seem to be very busy when I think about it.
Originally, I planned to go out to play today, but I'm not in a hurry to go back anyway. The Thunder team is already on vacation, so it's Presti's turn to worry about things.
After the end of the summer league, the team also finalized the lineup for the new season, and then began to enter the long offseason.
Compared with football, football has summer and winter breaks, but the NBA only has about two months of summer breaks.
Of course, if you go back to fishing early after the regular season, then the vacation will be long, basically half a year and half a year off.
The Thunder only reached the second round last season. After that, the players began to take vacations. Only the management still needs to work.
But because the team does not have any contract renewal issues, some of them have already negotiated, so the management of Presti is actually working and resting.
Of course, it is impossible to stop directly. After all, although the transfer period is fixed, various forms of contact between the team and players must be indispensable before that.
There are policies and there are countermeasures. Your league does not allow my team to directly contact players. I can save the country with curves, such as arranging my own players to go on vacation together, and then discuss it during the vacation, or use personal relationships to contact their families or agents.
Anyway, you can't install monitoring equipment on everyone, and it's impossible to grasp all of what people are talking about.
The means that the league can really restrict are actually very limited. Even if it is a super luxury tax, there are some such as the Warriors and the Nets who pay it.
Of course, the team's management is generally based on making money. There are only a few teams that can really achieve results. Other teams must not mess around if they want to maintain it. It depends on the general manager's methods.
But like Presti, the boss is not very willing to pay, and his clever wife can't live without rice.
Watching Harden play so well in Houston last season, he didn't know how many times he sighed.
Just a few million!
And this season, the boss finally paid off the money and was about to start doing something. Then he encountered a coaching change, and the new coach seemed to be very confident in his ability to train players. Except for the four rookies, the Thunder did not add other players to the lineup.
Is it really like some media said that the new season will rely on KD + four rookies to win the world? (Ibaka: I...)
Oh yes, and Westbrook. (Ibaka: ...)
At present, Westbrook's injury seems to be able to recover, otherwise he would not concentrate on recuperating and go directly to Orlando to find Li Sheng.
This is also the only thing that can increase Presti's confidence during this period. Of course, the four rookies, especially Antetokounmpo, performed well in the summer league and are becoming more and more adaptable, which is also worthy of his happiness.
However, after the end of the summer league, the next ones, including the rookies, will enter the offseason and start vacations and training.
These two are actually not in conflict, it's a combination of work and rest.
For example, Durant has been training without stopping. When facing the old enemy of the Grizzlies in the second round this year, without Westbrook's help, he was very uncomfortable being defended by Tony Allen.
The reason why the Grizzlies have always been Durant's sufferer is not unrelated to Tony Allen's brown sugar defense and the overall internal and external defensive system.
The Grizzlies' defense is to continue to confront you, and then attack to grind up the ground and press time. This is naturally not a good thing for a young and aggressive team.
On the contrary, the more seasoned Spurs are not so afraid of them, and the defense is not weak and the offense is stronger.
Style restraint exists in the NBA, whether it is a team or an individual, just like Howard was almost the number one center in the league at the time, but every time he meets Yao, he is still deflated, and Yao is always a headache when he meets Boozer-Oku.
Of course, failure is also the driving force for progress. For example, when the Warriors succeeded year after year, Durant was somewhat slack. This also caused his thin knees to be unbearable after he gained weight. In the end, he lost too much energy and weight in the playoffs, so he was injured.
But now Durant hopes to rely on his own efforts to make further progress and complete evolution, and to succeed in revenge in the coming year.
In fact, in the original time and space, he practiced effectively. In the 13-14 season, Iron Man Westbrook was frequently absent due to injury recurrence, and finally played only half of the games. He led the team to still win the second place in the Western Conference, second only to the Spurs.
At the same time, Durant also relied on his performance this season to win a series of scoring champions and the first MVP in his career. Basically, he led the team to win by relying on his personal performance.
In the playoffs, the Thunder once again made it to the Western Conference Finals through the revenge of the Grizzlies, but lost to the championship Spurs.
No way, the Spurs were so strong that year. Except for the Mavericks in the first round, they played better every round.
Even when the Thunder beat the Grizzlies, they narrowly won in a tiebreaker. It can only be said that their skills are not as good as others.
It's a pity that Durant was brave this season, and then he was injured immediately, which interrupted his upward momentum.
Presti won't know about this, but Li Sheng knows it very well.
Of course, Li Sheng was also very worried about the fact that the two core players of the team would be plagued by injuries in the future, so he also specifically consulted the "system doctor".
Although the medical conditions in the United States are very strong, there are many "veterinarians" in NBA teams. The most famous one is the city of tearing, which can really tear.
There are also many quack doctors. For example, the Spurs team doctor who forced Leonard to seek medical treatment from outside has misdiagnosed him not once or twice.
Only in this way can it be seen that Sun Miracle Doctor is commendable!
Although the Thunder's team doctor had never heard of any problems, Westbrook's and Durant's injuries were also traceable, but Westbrook's intermittent injuries always felt that it had something to do with this aspect.
Because there are only 26 points left, Li Sheng only spent [-] points to ask for help this time to get the physical reports of Durant and Westbrook. Adu is fine for the time being. It should be that the MVP season consumed too much and buried hidden dangers later.
You must know that Adu has been considered an iron man in the past six seasons, except that he missed seven games due to an ankle injury in his second year as a rookie—or stepped on someone else’s foot and suffered an injury. His attendance rate is very high every year, basically only missing one or two games, and the average is more than 38 minutes per game.
As a result, Jones suffered a fracture before the start of next year's season, and the right foot injury has been bothering him since then.
Of course, what Li Sheng wanted was to lighten Adu's burden and add more rookie roles, also for the sake of practicing more.
Under normal circumstances, it is best to train rookies step by step, and don't force them to be quick, but Li Sheng has the help of plug-ins, and with this confidence, at most it will be difficult to start a few games, and even if he trains well during the offseason, there will be no problems in the start.
So Li Sheng also immediately thought of it. He should inform Presti and ask him to organize it. Durant, Antetokounmpo, Robertson, Ennis and others will all go to San Antonio to train with Joep Engelland during this offseason.
Of course, there will be Leonard of the Spurs as a sparring partner.
