NBA: Art is trash talk

Chapter 397 New Lineup

"Charles, do you have no money to eat?"

On the training ground, He Xinghui was taken aback when he saw Barkley.

Barkley in front of him is much thinner than he was two months ago. He Xinghui almost didn't recognize him if his face hadn't deformed.

"roll."

While Barkley was doing physical training, he still took the time to scold He Xinghui.

He has reason to scold.

If He Xinghui hadn't tempted him to come back, he wouldn't have suffered such a crime.

This comeback, Barkley is not saying that he plans to be a mascot on the bench, and then really mix a championship ring.

That doesn't mean much to him, and it's hard to get the fans' approval.

Now that he is back, he will play.

Even if you can't play the main force, you still have to have a stable substitute rotation position.

It is not easy to achieve this, so he started special training after announcing his comeback.In the past two months, he has suffered a lot.

"Hahaha"

Everyone laughed.

Originally, because of the skyrocketing value of He Xinghui, everyone was worried that they didn't know how to get along with He Xinghui.

Now seeing Barkley scolding He Xinghui wantonly, everyone felt relieved.

"Physical training is useless. Paul fights bulls with him. I want to see how good this guy is. If it doesn't work, someone will be responsible for everyone's backpacks in the future."

He Xinghui joked.

Millsap immediately jumped out when he heard the words, bullying the old man was no psychological burden for him at all.

Everyone continued to laugh.

"Are you sure you want to do this? It's a shame to be beaten up by an old man who has retired for more than ten years. Are you sure you want to humiliate yourself?"

Barkley trash-talked Millsap.

"Come on Charles, I'm a player with no feelings, and I won't show mercy to the old man."

Millsap said.

Things have come to this point, and Barkley has nothing to do, he can only fight.

Moreover, this kind of heads-up within the team is an inevitable game.

This kind of heads-up winning or losing, everyone will not take it to heart, at least, not on the surface.

The two started a heads-up, with Barkley attacking first.

It is difficult for him to break through Millsap at his current speed, and his strength is not dominant. At first glance, he may be completely abused.

However, on the court, experience is also a very important ability.

Others thought it was impossible for Barkley to break through, but Barkley did just that.

He first made a fake back hit, and Millsap immediately lowered his body's center of gravity, preparing to prevent Barkley from going deep into the basket.

As a result, Barkley suddenly started a breakthrough, and Millsap was fooled.

By the time he caught up again, Barkley had already found a chance to make a shot and scored with a small throw.

"What's the use of him? Let Elgin lay off, save a spot, and I have an uncle who wants to come back."

Buckley whispered.

He is also very happy to be able to score points on Millsap's head, which at least shows that he can still play.

After all, Millsap's defense is now at a moderate level in the league.

"Hahaha"

"Paul, give me some response."

"Cut it off, Charles is enough for us."

Everyone booed on the sidelines, they had no position, they were just watching the excitement.

Whether Barkley is deflated or Millsap is deflated, they have fun.

"I'm going to be serious next time."

Millsap excused himself.

Subsequently, Millsap attacked.

Barkley's current defense must be very poor in assist defense, and misplaced defense is also miserable, because of his lack of speed and physical fitness.

However, he can still be more or less effective against power forwards alone.

After all, he's been a power forward all his life, has a lot of experience, and has the right size.

Millsap failed to make a breakthrough in the first attack, so he could only squeeze Barkley away with strength.

Although successful, but somewhat reluctantly.

After Barkley continued to interfere, Millsap's shot was slightly affected and missed.

Barkley stopped talking trash, for fear that the kid wouldn't be able to bear it.

"Oh"

Everyone exclaimed, this situation is completely different from what they thought, they thought Millsap could beat Barkley.

Unexpectedly, Barkley could still have the upper hand.

This also made some people who have never played against Barkley feel that the previous Fliggy was really strong.

However, they were purely in a hurry.

As Millsap got serious, Barkley quickly fell into a disadvantage.

After a few rounds, Millsap won the heads-up 5-3 and saved face.

Although Barkley lost, he also received applause from everyone.

After all, everyone didn't expect him to win in the first place.

Everyone thought that Barkley came to the Clippers just to join in the fun.Now that Barkley has shown his ability to play, he has naturally won the respect of everyone.

"Is there anyone else? Keep going. Opportunities to bully the top [-] superstars don't come all the time."

He Xinghui said to the others.

Everyone was eager to try, but Barkley was speechless.

Fighting with Millsap had already exhausted most of his physical strength, and he never expected that He Xinghui would also play wheel battles, he was simply inhuman.

"Charles, don't say everyone is bullying you, just pick one yourself."

He Xinghui laughed.

"Xie Te, do I still need to pick an opponent? I don't panic if anyone comes."

While talking, Barkley looked for an opponent he could bully.

He Xinghui ignored it directly, Gasol couldn't beat it, Kassel was also a bit difficult, and the main players didn't even consider it.

He set his sights on marginalized people, such as Nuo Wen and Chen Jianghua who had just entered the NBA.

"You, you kid, you're smiling so arrogantly, let Charles' father take care of you."

Barkley chose Chen Jianghua.

"Come on, bully this fat pig with speed."

He Xinghui laughed.

Chen Jianghua entered the game excitedly, the opponent is one of the top [-] superstars in the NBA.

It is an honor in itself to be able to play against this kind of opponent, and it will be even more enjoyable if you can defeat this kind of opponent.

Chen Jianghua attacked first, but unfortunately he was too excited to enter the state and was blocked by Barkley.

When it was Barkley's turn to attack, Chen Jianghua struggled to defend.

The tonnage of the two is not at the same level, and so is the experience.

Barkley went all the way to the basket, but Chen Jianghua had no choice.

At the basket, Barkley took off with a small hook and scored the ball.

In order to save energy, he also developed a new shooting posture.

Offensive and defensive transition, Chen Jianghua broke through and was squeezed by Barkley and made a dribbling error, and the ball was switched.

Chen Jianghua was already in a bit of a hurry. If he couldn't even beat Barkley, it would be difficult to get a chance to play in the future.

In the next offensive round, Chen Jianghua finally broke through Barkley with his speed, went to the basket and scored.

Unfortunately, it was too late. After a few rounds, he lost the heads-up 2-5.

"Young man, you are still a little tender."

Buckley whispered.

Seeing that Barkley had actually put it on, He Xinghui stood up and said, "Come on, it's my turn."

"Oh"

Others were whistling and booing, wanting to see the scene of Barkley being abused.

He Xinghui and Barkley are singled out, there must be no suspense.

"No, I'm worried that winning you will affect your image status in the team."

Barkley refused.

"it does not matter."

"Forget it, I'm afraid that if you win, the media will make a big fuss, smear and ridicule you."

"It's okay, everyone will not spread what happened today."

The two had a conversation, and the others laughed half to death.

In the end, Barkley refused to fight He Xinghui single-handedly.

Subsequently, the Clippers players began to divide into two teams for some training.

At this time, there are some new faces in the Clippers team, and some people have also left.

Mobley, Perkins, Joseph are all gone.

There are more Barkley, Chen Jianghua, Jaylen Rose, Dakomilicic, and undrafted players Auguste and Monta, and the number is as many as 16.

When the preseason is over, the team should lay off two or three players and retain one or two positions to deal with various accidents, mid-term reinforcements, and so on.

Jaylen Rose took the initiative to find He Xinghui, hugged He Xinghui's thigh, and wanted to come over to be He Xinghui's dogleg, so he almost knelt down for He Xinghui.

Fortunately, He Xinghui doesn't like men, otherwise Jaylen Rose would have pouted his ass.

Facing the number one star in the league, his most loyal little fan, He Xinghui could only help him reluctantly.

If He Xinghui doesn't want him, Jaylen Rose will have to retire.

Milicic is the player that He Xinghui called for. Firstly, it is to make up for the vacancy of the center after Perkins left. Second, he wants to bring Milicic to play. This will also become a good story.

Milicic, who has played for 4 seasons, has been labeled as a parallel importer. He averaged 1.6 points per game in the three years in the Pistons. After moving to the Magic last game, he got a little better, but only a little over 5 points.

But He Xinghui knows that Milicic actually has some ability, and he can average nearly 9 points per game in the future.

If he is in the Clippers, He Xinghui can also rely on his personal ability to help him create some opportunities. It should not be difficult to average 10 points per game.

As long as he helps Milicic average 10 points per game, the media will definitely not hesitate to praise He Xinghui and give him a higher evaluation of his ability to lead the team.

This is actually a bit risky. In case the Clippers perform poorly this season, the media will definitely be ridiculed and laugh at them for being too big.

As far as the current Clippers' lineup is concerned, it's really horrible.

The point guard positions are Livingston, Cassel, and Chen Jianghua.

Except for one Livingston who is qualified, the other is old and the other is young, it is a mystery to play as a substitute.

Moreover, Livingston is only average among the starting point guards, and he can't take advantage of most of the starting point guards. He will suffer even more against Nash, Parker, Billups and other point guards.

The shooting guards are He Xinghui, Jaylen Rose, and Monta.

It can be said that after He Xinghui left the game, the Clippers didn't even have a decent substitute.

Jaylen Rose was directly ignored in the free market, and he came to the Clippers with the lowest salary, about 80 a year.Most of its abilities don't need to be counted on.

Monta is an undrafted player who played well in summer league.

However, this kind of goodness is only the threshold for entering the NBA, and it is impossible to expect him to play a big role.

At the small forward position are Maggette, Craig and Rose.

Maggette is not bad, with a stable scoring ability.

Craig has experienced a season of experience, and his strength has also grown, while Rose has been reduced to a marginal man.

The power forward position is Gasol, Millsap, Barkley, Auguste.

The Clippers' reserves at this position are not bad.

At the center position are Kaman, Milicic, and Norman.

Whether Milicic can play is still a question, and Norwen's growth has almost reached the upper limit.

Without Perkins, the Clippers are weaker at this position than last year.

The biggest loss for the Clippers this season is naturally Mobley's departure.

Although his performance last season was average, he is at least a qualified sixth man.

The internal training began, and He Xinghui led the substitute against the starting lineup.

This kind of grouping is not just a few points. He Xinghui definitely needs to bring a substitute this season and needs to train some tacit understanding.

The starting lineup also needs to practice playing without He Xinghui.

Red Fang, Livingston, Jaylen Rose, Maggette, Gasol, Kaman.

Bai Fang, Chen Jianghua, He Xinghui, Craig, Barkley, Milicic.

The white team won the jump ball, and Chen Jianghua controlled the ball and advanced.

He Xinghui ran without the ball and was double-teamed by Jaylen Rose and Maggette. This is basic respect for him.

What the substitute lineup needs to practice is how to score in this situation.

Chen Jianghua passed the ball to Craig who was emptied, and Craig was already in a position he was familiar with, and he shot a jumper directly.

Hit, happy to score two points, Chen Jianghua also liked to mention an assist.

Pretty easy.

Chen Jianghua retreated happily. He felt that the scoring was easier than in CBA.

However, he soon became unhappy, and Livingston put a lot of pressure on him.

Although Livingston was also quite thin, he was able to gain the upper hand in the confrontation.

After passing Chen Jianghua, Livingston went to the basket and scored.

In the transition between offense and defense, Barkley and He Xinghui had an interaction.

Barkley blocked for He Xinghui, and then went down.

Jalen Rose failed to keep up with He Xinghui, Gasol was forced to go out to defend, and Barkley caught the ball at the basket and scored.

"That's the price of underestimating Charles."

After scoring a goal, Barkley began to feel flustered.

Everyone laughed, the training atmosphere was very relaxed, and they didn't take it too seriously.

What I practice now is mainly tactical routines.

Offensive and defensive transition, Gasol stormed the basket, Barkley couldn't stand it, Milicic assisted in the defense, Gasol made a shot.

Others didn't play very seriously, but Milicic was focused and wanted to seize the opportunity to perform, and he had wasted too long.

Now He Xinghui is recognized as the best teammate, the easiest to help his teammates perform.

If you can't play it around He Xinghui, it will be difficult to play it in other places.

Milicic wants to prove himself, he has carried too much.

Seeing the enthusiasm of Milicic, Dunleavy is quite satisfied.

After a few days of internal training, it seems that everyone is playing well.

But this is of no use. If you want to really test it, you still have to get it in an official game.

On October 10, the preseason started.

The first opponent of the Clippers is the Lakers in the same city. The distance is close. Every year, the two teams must have a game in the preseason.

The other opponents are also relatively close teams.

An ordinary preseason game, but it also attracted the attention of many fans.

The Lakers without Kobe seem to have something to watch against a group of old, weak and sick Clippers.
