Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 181

Lian Feng was so enthusiastic that Gasol Jr. reacted immediately.

After a while, Gasol asked cautiously: "Is what you said true? Are you willing to help me stay on the team?"

Lian Feng did not answer directly, but asked him instead: "By the way, Mark, which team is the Hornets your trial training?"

Gasol Jr. said with some disappointment: "Mr. the sixth team is also the last team. No more teams have sent me invitations for trial training."

Lian Feng nodded.

The more unsatisfactory players are predicted in the draft position, the more teams will try out.But if the market is too bad, even the trial team will not give too many opportunities.

After all, it is not a small expense for the team to report travel expenses and air tickets for the trial training.

Lian Feng laughed: "Don't look depressed, believe me, you will become as good a player as your brother."

Gasol Jr. doesn't expect to be as good as his brother, but he is inspired by Lian Feng's affirmation.So cheer up: "Thank you!"

Lian Feng patted Gasol on the shoulder and said: "Man, I will help you become a better player and help you develop the potential in your body, but before that, we have to let the old fritters of the team affirm it."

"Uh... Excuse me, what is an old fried dough stick?"

"That's not important. Anyway, let's see you in the trial match this afternoon."

……

When Lian Feng came to the trial training arena, all the players of the team and Adelman were present.

This is Adelman's first big move after coaching the Hornets. He is also selecting players with potential to prove his worth.

Adelman they are watching the trial players warm up.

Lian Feng walked over and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Are there any good seedlings in this batch of trial players?"

Adelman shook his head: "I haven't found it yet. They have two good guards with good athletic ability, but the team already has you and Paul. In fact, the team doesn't need too many No. 1 and No. 2 positions. What we need is a center who can pass the ball."

Lian Feng pointed to Gasol, who was warming up by running back and forth, and said, "How is that guy?"

Adelman frowned: "He? Do you know him? I heard that he is Pau Gasol's younger brother. Compared with his older brother, his athletic ability is too poor."

Lian Feng shrugged indifferently: "I met him at the World Championships. That guy looks like a big Pyrenees, but he has a good pass handling ability, and can shoot three-pointers. The quality of the pick-and-roll is also very high. Except for the lateral agility, other conditions are very good."

Adelman was a little surprised, to be able to get such affirmation from Lianfeng, then this little Gasol should have something.Why haven't I heard of this guy before?

Lian Feng saw Adelman's doubts, and continued: "Sir, you should also know that there is no way to use statistics to reflect the ability of high screens."

Adelman became interested, "Really, I will pay attention to that kid in the next actual battle."

Lian Feng's words made Tyson Chandler and Bobby Jackson next to him a little unconvinced.

Bobby Jackson said: "Lianfeng, I don't want to question you, but I think that guy can't play in the NBA at all. His lateral movement is too slow. He is not at the NBA level at all."

Lian Feng looked at Tyson Chandler and said, "Tyson, do you think so too?"

Tyson Chandler didn't speak, just smiled.

Lian Feng said seriously, "Then how about we make a bet."

Bobby Jackson asked suspiciously, "A bet?"

Lian Feng smiled slightly: "I will join those rookies and fight with you."

Everyone looked at each other.

Even if Lian Feng is the team's absolute scoring leader, but with a group of players who are not strictly NBA-level, it is unlikely to beat professional players.

Basically, as long as Lian Feng is double-teamed, their team has to rest.

Bobby Jackson said immediately: "Deal! How about we just bet $[-]?"

Lian Feng said bluntly: "Okay, your ten thousand dollars is mine now."

Bobby Jackson laughed: "You will regret it."

Lian Feng's words made all the official players excited.Today's Hornets Lianfeng is of course the core main force doing his part, and it is of course very cool to be able to beat him.

So Adelman agreed.

Lian Feng called the group of rookies over.

This time, there were 7 players who went to the Hornets for trial training, all of whom were college students.

Lian Feng gathered them together and asked: "Since you are all from universities, I would like to ask you, has anyone been exposed to the Princeton system before?"

The Princeton system is a tactical system used by many universities, so when Lian Feng asked, four rookies raised their hands.

Lian Feng nodded in satisfaction and said, "The three of you will start later." Then, Lian Feng looked at Gasol Jr. and said, "You will be the starting center."

A little black raised his hand: "I'm sorry, but this is only 4 people."

Lian Feng said: "The fifth person is of course me. But you don't have to worry, I will try my best to give you a chance to perform. Listen, if you want to enter a professional team, you must not only learn how to fight against professional players, but also learn how to play with professional players."

Everyone said they knew.

Before the game officially started, Bobby Jackson said to the rookies: "Listen to the rookies! We want to test your basketball level and your mental health. Don't be beaten by us! Hahahaha."

Lian Feng remembered that Bobby Jackson liked to tease the newcomers in the team very much, but he did not expect that he would still be like this in this time and space.

Lian Feng thought that Bobby Jackson was almost scolded and cried by himself last season, but he didn't expect him to be so brave in the face of a rookie. This contrast is really dumbfounding.

Adelman clapped his hands: "Okay, stop talking nonsense! Let's start the game and let me see your strength!"

Lian Feng ran over and patted Gasol on the shoulder: "Man, take it easy! Play the way you are good at."

Little Gasol nodded.

Lian Feng didn't hold the ball, so of course he wanted to leave more opportunities to those rookies in this kind of confrontation.

But soon, Lian Feng frowned.

The point guard in the team faced Bobby Jackson's pressing, making turnovers again and again, and the ball was lost as soon as the dribble was in the frontcourt.There was not even time to launch tactics.

Lian Feng glanced at the little rookie and had to say that he was indeed too nervous.

Bobby Jackson became an instant star, scoring consecutive dunks.

After Bobby Jackson scored a goal, he proudly said to Lianfeng: "Boss, you have to prepare your $1! Haha"

Lian Feng snorted: "Are you forcing me to play point guard?"

At this time, Adelman called a timeout.

All are brought together.

Adelman frowned and said to the point guard just now: "Go down and rest. Change another point guard and come up."

Adelman's words almost directly sentenced the player to death.

That little black immediately showed a look of despair, "Sir, give me another chance! I will do well!"

Adelman shook his head, "You are too nervous today, please calm down on the bench first."

Afterwards, Lian Feng stood up and said, "Forget it, I'll handle the ball."

Adelman can also think about it, because the team can hold the ball even forward and Paul, there is no need to find another point guard, just look at their performance under the command of the top point guard.

So Adelman nodded: "Yes, but you have to remember to give more opportunities to other people and let them participate."

Lian Feng nodded: "I will!"
