NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 50 No one on the inside, Li Ba enters the starting lineup

In the evening, Li Ba did not train as usual.

Because there is one thing that is a little troublesome now. The temperature in Finierni is now dropping, and the average temperature at night is only [-] degrees Celsius. There are fewer and fewer pests, and they are not very active. This has begun to affect his fly-catching training.

"Should I find a room to raise flies?"

He knew this. Someone in the village had done it before, raising this thing to feed maggots to chickens, and it seemed to be very easy to raise.

But thinking that he has an agent, there is a saying in the NBA that everything is never resolved, so he picked up his phone and called Bill Duffy.

"What, you train with flies and mosquitoes?" Bill Duffy almost bit off his tongue when he heard it.

"Yes, it's very useful to use them to train my rebounding and shot-blocking abilities." Li Ba said with a smile.

Thinking of the dense flies and mosquitoes, Bill Duffy on the other end of the phone couldn't help feeling sick.However, he is a professional manager, so he immediately suppressed the disgust in his heart and said, "You stop for a while, and I will come over to solve this problem for you the day after tomorrow."

"OK."

Li Ba hung up the phone with satisfaction.

On the 3rd, Bill Duffy rushed to Liba, learned about the specific situation, and began to handle this matter for him.

He first made an apology to Li Ba, because he went to see the warehouse where Li Ba used to train at night, and felt that it was too dangerous, it was like working with rattlesnakes, and he thought it was his negligence.

His plan is to rent a basement, and then find a supplier to provide flies and mosquitoes.As for how the supplier finds the source of goods, this is not something he considers.

"Bill, don't be too expensive. I'll kill or injure more than 2000 birds a day. If it's too expensive, I'll go bankrupt." Li Ba warned.

"Don't worry, Hammer, I've read the market. Those bugs are cheap, but the labor for daily delivery is more expensive." Bill Duffy laughed.

The fourth game of the Suns is on November 11th, four days after the Lakers.

In the past few days, the attention of the American media has long been on other news, but the domestic media is still hyping the elbow incident.But fortunately, there has been no official statement.

On the 4th, the Suns flew to Salt Lake City, Utah.

In the evening, in the apartment, Bill Duffy was talking to Li Ba, and Chen Hong was on the side.

The underground training room is ready, not far from here, and has air conditioning to heat it up, which keeps the bugs active.

The supplier of the bugs has also been settled. They will send him about [-] bugs every day, all of which are flies.

For all expenses, Li Ba spends nearly two thousand dollars a month.If this price is placed in China, it is a sky-high price, flies and bugs made of gold.But this is in the United States, and compared to the training effect, it is definitely nothing, and he can accept it.

The two were chatting when Li Ba received a call from Dayao.

This guy is in a bad mood. The Mosaic team has played back-to-back against the Bulls and the Nets in the past two days. They have won 2 consecutive victories, and they still beat the Bulls by 32 points.

But he didn't perform well. He scored 12 points and 10 points respectively in the two games, and he didn't have many rebounds, 7 and 10 respectively. He complained to Li Ba.

"You played 66 minutes in the two games and only made 19 shots. Can you make more shots? The coach restricts you?"

Li Ba said.

"That's not true. But I'm only in my second year, and there are only so many ball distributions. Teammates will have opinions if I shoot too many shots." Dayao said.

"Brother, what are you being modest about? This is not China, this is the United States, we have to fight for it!" Li Ba said.

"Do the same thing as you? Haha!" Dayao laughed, and then said: "I continue to gain weight this season, and the training is very tiring. To be honest, if I take too many shots, my physical fitness can't keep up."

"Do you still want to gain weight? How much?" Li Ba asked.

"140 kg." Yao Ming said.

"Isn't that about the same as O'Neill? Brother, you are so tall. We yellow people don't have thick bones. After a long time, can your knees and feet bear it?" Li Ba frowned.

"I can't help it. The current coach Van Gundy asked me to increase my low-post play. I don't have weight, and I'm not as strong as you. I can't stand up at all." Yao Ming said helplessly.

"I'm going to play the Grizzlies when I come back. You know their Spanish center Pau Gasol?" Li Ba said.

"Of course I know, a strong center has a wide range of attack." Dayao said.

"Did you see him gain weight to 140? I think you are the same type, you think about it. It's not what the coach tells you to do, you have to do it. Let me put it this way, if you gain weight to 140 Kg, your career may be ten years shorter than Pau Gasol's, and there are only a few years left to play." Li Ba said.

"Wow, Li Ba, don't scare me?" Dayao said dissatisfiedly.

"Can I scare you? By the way, have you discussed this with Bill? He's here with me now." Li Ba said.

"Okay, you give him the phone." Dayao said.

"Hey, Yao, Hammer is right, you need to be more proactive. In addition, I am still conservative about your decision to gain weight. You can gain weight, but it is better to control it at 130 kg." After answering the phone, Bill Duffy Road.

"Okay, Bill, I'll think about it carefully." Dayao hesitated when he heard what Bill Duffy said.

In fact, this isn't the first time Bill Duffy has taken issue with his weight gain.

The two chatted for a few minutes before hanging up the phone.

On the 5th, the Jazz defeated the Suns 91:80 at home and achieved a record of three wins and one loss.The Suns swallowed the defeat and achieved a record of two wins and two losses. They are currently ranked tenth in the Western Conference.

There was no nationwide live broadcast of this game, and Li Ba only inquired about the general situation.

Outside, Marbury played abnormally, scoring 13 points in 3 of 9.

Then the inside performance was mediocre. Xiaobawang scored 20 of 7 and scored 18 points and 9 rebounds. His performance was acceptable, but other insiders were not good.

The team's rebounding alone was 35 to 48, and the Suns lost 13 to the Jazz.The true shooting percentage of the Jazz team is 52.3%. These 13 rebounds can be converted into 14 points based on this calculation.

At 7 pm on the 9th, the Suns will play the fifth game at home against the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies have the same record as the Suns this season, with [-] wins and [-] losses, and they are also ranked [-]th in the Western Conference. Today's game is very important to both sides.

Li Ba was suspended for one game, and this time he entered the 12-man squad.

Before the game, in the locker room of the home team, Frank began to announce the starting lineup.

"No. [-] Stephen Marbury, No. [-] Joe Johnson, No. [-] Sean Marion, No. [-] Amare Stoudemire, No. [-]..."

When he read this, he stopped and looked at Li Ba in the corner.

"I."

Li Ba's eyes lit up, and he jumped up from his seat in an instant, shouting excitedly.

Frank nodded with a smile.

D'Antoni on the side behind him looked a little unhappy. He didn't like Li Ba as the starting center.But then again, the team does not have a good center, unless Stoudemire returns to the fifth position, but that is not his favorite position.So Li Bajin started the game. Although he didn't like it, he didn't object.

Seeing the head coach nodding, there was a burst of surprise from the players in the locker room.

It's too soon, it's only the fifth game, and the undrafted rookie is playing in the third game, so he starts directly?

The faces of several players were a bit ugly, mainly because of the few insiders who had the opportunity to start.

But they can't say anything, the reason is very simple, because last season, some of these players have not come yet, and the old players are not the original center forwards. Play power forward.So now Li Ba is directly starting the center forward, and it is not a direct grab for their position.

Another one with an ugly face was Barbossa.

This guy refuses to accept it. My No. 28 pick in the first round has not stood up from the bench yet. Is this one of the undrafted picks starting directly?

"Ha ha!"

Li Ba laughed triumphantly, his nostrils turned upside down.

This hateful behavior made the insiders who were competing with him even more unhappy, but he had just finished elbowing Malone, a super tough guy, and no one here dared to say anything, at most curled their lips in disdain and slandered a few words.
