NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 18 Official Training Camp Opens

On September NO.30, the official training camp starts.

The registration time is 08:30, and Li Ba arrived at the training headquarters in a hurry.

When he arrived, all the coaching staff and players had arrived, and more than [-] people in the training ground were doing pre-training activities.

Because he was the last one to arrive, when he came in, most people looked at him.

"Hey, look, is that Hammer who covered the No. [-] pick? As the owner of the team's minimum salary, he is really a big name, and he came later than the coach."

A player muttered in a moderate voice.

Li Ba looked over, and the speaker knew him, the only second first-round pick of the Suns this year, No. 28 rookie Leandro Barbosa, he watched him put on the Spurs hat.

"Brazilian, you can speak louder, like a man, like me. Do you have the intelligence to understand me?"

Li Ba disliked all the rookies ahead of him in the draft, and said to Barbosa expressionlessly.

"..."

Barbosa's mouth and eyes are wide open, I am a first-round pick, how dare you talk to me like this when you are an undrafted pick?

"Oh!" Marbury, who was not afraid of big things, let out a strange cry.

"It's very arrogant!" the little bully Amare Stoudemire said in surprise.

"It's so impulsive!" Penny Anfernee Hardaway shook his head.

The other players were also surprised in their own way. Is it really okay to be so impulsive when they meet each other?This year's two rookies don't seem to be obedient.

"Tie Hammer, go to the locker room and get ready. Your name is on it." At this time, the head coach Frank spoke and waved his hand, signaling Li Ba to go down and get ready.

He knew a little bit about Li Ba's situation, and knew that he came here by running, so he didn't blame him for rushing to the training ground, in fact, he was not late now.

"Okay, coach." Li Ba nodded.

Barbosa was also a last pick in the first round. Seeing the head coach speak, he didn't dare to say anything, and shrank behind the others.

Li Ba came to the locker room, which was in the shape of a T, and his wardrobe was the one on the farthest side of the row.

Open the closet, there are several training clothes hanging in it.While changing equipment, a staff member came in and asked him to choose a jersey number.

"Is number 68 okay?"

Li Ba looked at the choices given, and found that there was no auspicious number, so he simply asked for a large size.

"Of course." The staff member nodded.

After changing his training clothes and sneakers, Li Ba returned to the training ground.

"Clap!"

Seeing Li Ba coming, and the time was 08:30, Frank stood up, clapped his hands, and shouted to the players: "Assemble."

Frank is also a rookie coach. He only took over last year. He doesn't have much prestige in the team, so he can overwhelm rookie players. Other veterans don't trust him, so he always keeps a straight face to add some dignity.

"Anferni, you are the captain, manage the locker room well, and don't make trouble."

After talking for a while, Frank glanced at Li Ba, and told Penny again.

"Okay, coach." Penny nodded.

The first training is a warm-up exercise, running ten laps around the training ground, which is close to the distance of two kilometers.

"Coach, I just finished running, can I do other training?" Li Ba shouted to Frank instead of following.

"You can do baseline running back and forth." Nodding, Frank pointed to the sidelines.

"it is good."

Li Ba immediately ran to the sidelines and began to do a 25-meter turn-back run.

He also practices this every day, and the success rate of fly catching on the rear side has begun to increase, which also benefits from this training.

When Frank was doing other things, he looked back at Li Ba from time to time with thoughtful eyes.

Now, the entire league is trembling because a super team has emerged, and that is the Lakers.

The Lakers won three consecutive championships with the OK combination and once again played a dynasty record. They only rested for one season and created a more terrifying F4 combination this season. This is why other teams trembled.

And the same as the Pacific Division, the regular season will have four rounds with the Lakers, and it is very likely that they will meet the Lakers' Suns in the playoffs, and they are even more worried.

With Shaquille O'Neal as a terrifying behemoth, and Karl Malone as a super scorer with an invincible iron elbow, Frank himself doesn't believe that the Suns will not be crushed inside.

So in order to deal with the insider crisis, he signed a lot of insiders this holiday, including Li Ba.

But it's a pity that none of them can really carry O'Neal and Malone. They are all things that other teams don't want, otherwise they wouldn't be put on the shelves when they all need strong insiders.

Among these people, only Li Ba can carry it in terms of strength.But Frank is worried that his inside skills are too poor, so now he has some thoughts in his mind.

At noon, Li Ba ate a nutritious meal for the first time.He almost vomited from half-baked beef and chicken.

Frank announced to play a team training match. Li Ba liked it very much and went to get the vest immediately.But unfortunately, the assistant coach told him that he was not on the roster, which made him a little confused.

Playing with D'Antoni in the summer league, he can still get 2 minutes of playing time, and now Frank doesn't give him 1 minute?

"Hey blacksmith, you better play streetball, that's what you do best."

At this time, Barbosa, who was wearing the yellow vest of the main force, proudly walked in front of him, and left a word in an indifferent way.

"Fuck!"

Li Ba rushed forward unhappily, passed by, and hit Barbosa's right shoulder heavily with his left shoulder.

"Hey!"

Barbosa was only 1.9 meters long and weighed less than [-] kilograms. Under Li Ba's deliberate intention, he was knocked directly to the floor.

"Hey, sorry, I didn't see you."

Li Ba casually grabbed Barbosa's right arm, lifted it up like a child, and kept pushing and shoving it a few times, sneering.

"You deliberately!"

Barbossa struggled angrily while roaring.But Li Ba's giant palm was too powerful, and he couldn't break free, which made him even more embarrassed.

Not far away, Captain Penny shook his head with a headache. To be honest, he didn't like either of these two rookies this year, far worse than Amare.Last year's No. [-] pick in the first round was the best rookie, and he was not as crazy as these two.

He yelled to the two of them: "Hey, boys, go out and fight, and come back after the fight."

Everyone else looked over at this time, including the coaches.

"I bet, the hammer will win, look at his pair of fists?" Marbury said with a smirk.

"Be careful in the future, don't come close to me, you bean sprouts!" Li Ba said coldly as he waved Barbosa a few steps away.

"You crazy!" Barbossa cursed angrily, stroking his right arm.

Frank also suffered from headaches. Hammer's personality was too impulsive, and he couldn't take any losses.
