Healing Basketball

Chapter 1068 1068. Return to the growth stage!
Although the performance was very free and easy, the departure of the butcher was a huge blow to the Trail Blazers.

Even if the two first-round picks are exchanged, and the two immediate combat powers are exchanged, it will not offset the loss of one of the league's top offensive power forwards.

However, Randolph did not express his position to the management until the new regulations were announced, which proved that he was entangled until the last moment, that is, he made up his mind to leave.

So neither Liu Xiu nor the coaching staff or the management repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay.

After getting along for so many years, we know each other very well.

If Randolph started fussing a long time ago, just throwing a temper tantrum, it would be enough to appease him, so that he didn't say it when the time came, then he had made up his mind.

And Randolph's departure is something that the Trail Blazers management has never thought about, and they are all ready for Randolph to die in Rose City.

When this happens, not only Liu Xiu, but also the coaching staff are reflecting on it.

When developing the new system, I didn’t ask Randolph if he would like it. I just thought that Randolph could play well, so I took it for granted that Randolph liked it too, because usually Randolph played fast. The attack is very happy, so I think so.

In fact, Randolph occasionally complained, but everyone didn't take it seriously... In the end, everyone didn't tear up their skins.

After learning about this situation, in the past month, the coaching staff talked to every player in the team about the new system, and the new players also communicated, emphasizing the style of play.

The first one to look for was Ray Allen, who had the longest chat and took the initiative to find topics. He chatted for a whole day. As long as Ray Allen didn't want to drive people away, John Nash kept talking hard.

Although Ray Allen didn't see any changes in his expression, John Nash could feel that he was happier, maybe because he felt the importance...

John Nash complained to the vice president that Ray Allen was more awkward than he thought, but Ray Allen's ability made them willing to accept this torture.

Just like during the All-Star Weekend, Paul Allen personally gave the 34-year-old Ray Allen a four-year, $4 million contract extension.

Randolph officially changed teams and did not interrupt Liu Xiu's training plan. On August 8, Liu Xiu, together with the outlaws, Nash, Anthony, Ray Allen, Batum, Dragic and others, To participate in the 'Kobe Bryant training camp', for a period of 4 days of training, practice two rest, a total of three weeks to spend.

This year, I will focus on three-pointers, step-backs, and three-threat skills, and learn around these three points.

His three threats must not reach the level of Kobe, Anthony, and Pierce, but he does not need to be so strong, he just needs to learn the skills in this area, so that he can have more choices when launching an offense.

Liu Xiu chose these three points because they can be combined effectively. With Kobe, Nash, and Anthony, it would be too bad not to develop the combination of these three people.

Both Fengzi and Dashen can trigger the fast learning mode, Dong Ge can be used as a reference.

Kobe actually didn't want to teach, but a certain guy who just came to Los Angeles brought a big food box to his house that night, fed him two catties, and was forced to train to lose weight together.

Zodiac has been depressed for the past two years. He wasn't in the mood at first, just like going on vacation during the All-Star weekend.

However, Liu Xiu entertained him very well during the playoffs. He stayed in Portland for several days during the playoffs. Originally, he just wanted to watch Liu Xiu and Paul playoffs. Liu Xiu provided him with balls throughout the playoffs. Not to mention the ticket, he was also given a super VIP card for many bars and nightclubs in Portland. The discount was astonishingly high. As a result, he stayed in Portland for more than a week, and then he couldn't hold back when he reached the Western Conference finals. Come here, wait until the finals are over...

The manpower was short, and the relationship was already good. After the season ended, Liu Xiu invited him to train together in August, and he readily agreed.

Although the past two years have not been smooth, and the team has played tricks this year, he still has to make full preparations before the start of each season and look forward to the dawn.

On Randolph's side, after going to Atlanta to settle the contract and accommodation, he came to Los Angeles and had a drink with Liu Xiu, but he didn't stay to train together, but went to Rio to participate in the summer carnival.

Liu Xiu seriously doubts that after spending 1.45 million, the Eagles will eventually buy back a 140-kilogram fat man.

Suddenly I don't care much about the butcher leaving, let him go to blow the cold wind of Appalachia.

He now understands the reason why the butcher doesn't like the new system, not because he thought the butcher didn't like running and playing for a long time, but because apart from the contract year, it is impossible for this guy to start with 120 kilograms like last season.

Playing a small ball with a large tonnage of more than 130 kilograms will kill people.

After that, he also met with Bibby, Maurice Evans and Cunningham, three new teammates.

Cunningham is worthy of being a mature player who entered the NBA after finishing college. He averaged 18.3 points per game in the Salt Lake City Summer League and won the scoring title.

In this kind of semi-professional game, he showed his outstanding characteristics in college very well. He was a little uncomfortable with the three-point line, and occasionally forgot the rule of defending for three seconds when the defensive end contracted. That's fine, he can show the characteristics of defense from 2 to 5, and he is the one with the best forward defense performance among the 8 teams in the Salt Lake City Summer League.

毕比上赛季在老鹰队打了80场，场均拿到14.9分3.5板5助攻1.2抢断，投篮命中率42%……但三分命中率高达39%，且场均能命中2.1记三分。

When Dragic was still leveling up, there was finally a reassuring point guard on the bench, which could relieve the pressure on Dior, Gasol Jr., Hill and others.

The key point is that Bibby's contract has expired, so if he can afford it, he can try to stay, if not, let it go. Moreover, for such an experienced veteran, it is another contract year, and the transaction value is not bad.

Bibby looked at Liu Xiu, full of emotions. A few years ago, when the warden was still a rookie, their Kings team was a half-time champion... and then there was no more.

Maurice Evans, undrafted in the 01 draft, has rich game experience. He once played in the finals with Yao Ming, and later played for the Lakers for more than a year. He was sent as a bargaining chip for David West For the Hornets, he averaged 7 points and 3 rebounds per game with the Hawks last season, and his 39% three-point shooting rate and 1.2 three-pointers per game are his highlights.

Although the two people who came back from the trade played desperately on the court, they may not add up to Randolph standing there doing nothing on the court.

But it can be seen that this is already the return of the management and coaching staff's painstaking selection.

To be suitable, but also to prevent the risk of long-term contract delays...

There is also a need to prevent the emergence of a super strong team. This is also done, and by the way, it has buried a nail in the East. Millsap and Randolph have a good relationship. These two play together in the Eagles. Both are very hard , the eastern powers are going to have a headache.

Butcher and Millsap and Josh-Smith teamed up with the three gangsters in the frontcourt of 206. The matter is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed.

After Liu Xiu and Randolph had dinner appointments and met their new teammates, they also put this matter aside completely.

Next, there is a whole new stage where there is no butcher as a helper.

...

This year's offseason bursts came early, but rarely.

The top stars of the '01 and '03 classes, the Mets will be unrestricted free agents next summer.

至于03届为什么会和01届一起成为无限制自由球员……因为03届的顶级球员们，第一份续约合同基本上都是3+1，而01届的大都是5+1。

This summer, many teams vacated space in order to get Randolph, failed to get Randolph, and did not give other players long-term contracts. Instead, they signed some one-year contracts and used them to prepare for next summer. .

More extreme is the Knicks. This summer, more than 4000 million US dollars in contracts expire, and after the end of next season, another 5000 million US dollars in contracts expires. Yes, I don't want to sign a long-term contract.

Even for David Lee, a top power forward capable of averaging 20+10 per game, the Knicks were unwilling to give him a long-term contract, and only gave him a one-year, $1 million contract just to make room for next summer. For a space between US$700 million and US$3000 million, two non-designated veteran contracts can be offered with a maximum salary.

After Randolph changed teams, the Sharks and Big Ben swapped and other things, the biggest deal was that the Jazz sent Chandler and draft picks in exchange for Emeka Okafor.

Last season, Okafor averaged 13 points, 10 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game. He has a strong offense and good defense. He has been a fully mature center since he entered the NBA. The only drawback is his weak back and frequent injuries.

After that, there will be no big deals. The championship-level teams can’t make big moves. Seeing that the Trail Blazers lost Randolph, they are very excited and want to strengthen. It has reached the limit, that is, it has reached the end of a cycle stage, and there is nothing to do.

Weak teams are waiting for next summer, or they are bad, and they have no and are unwilling to make big moves.

On the Trail Blazers side, after selecting a rookie and exchanging Randolph for the picks of the two players, there was nothing to do.

The news that Liu Xiu got here was that Gasol succeeded in losing weight, Gasol's high jump shot improved significantly, Gasol's talent for quick transition balls in positional battles... and so on.

The management and the coaching staff have taken the trouble to 'report' to the players how outstanding Gasol's talent is and how fast he has improved, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Liu Xiu was not calm when Randolph left the team, let alone other people?
In other words, Ray Allen didn't seem to react at all, and everyone else was going crazy when they first found out about it.

The only one who is really happy is Gasol Jr.

This summer, the team caught Gasol to train wildly, lose weight and practice skills. On the one hand, he used Gasol's talent and ability to appease other players.

But the coaching staff has some personal emotions in it.

The damn Spaniard laughed smirkingly while practicing, and smiled so sincerely. The coaching staff who just lost the number one inside star really wanted to gang up on this guy.

Time passed day by day, and at the end of August, the 'Kobe Training Camp' ended, and the learning time was over. Liu Xiu re-polished the training methods of step-back, three-threat stance, and very important techniques.

I also completed the second half of the training mission of the 'Advanced Physical Strength Card' during this time. I practiced more than half of it during business activities in Europe, China, and Asia, and my physical strength successfully increased from 93 to 94.

Liu Xiu, who has gained a lot, began to play openly. The baby was handed over to her parents. Anne-Hathaway's parents also live in Los Angeles this summer and can help take care of it. The couple traveled for more than half a month.

He worked so hard to wake up Kobe at 3 o'clock every morning to start training. No one reported it. When he went on a trip, the media hyped him for not doing his job properly, not training during the offseason, and starting after becoming the best player in active service Slack off.

When Liu Xiu saw the news, she complained to Anne-Hathaway: "Are they saying that I worked very hard before? Do you want to thank them for their supervision?"

Anne Hathaway couldn't stop laughing, she really wanted to record the picture of her man complaining and send it to the media, to piss them off.

In mid-September, the young couple returned to Portland. Liu Xiu’s parents had already brought their children back home. Liu Xiu returned to the team and started working. Anne-Hathaway also continued to go back to school to study and work, and her life was orderly. return to the normal state.

Liu Xiu returned to the team 10 days earlier than in previous years. The management and coaching staff said it was a surprise, but it was not that surprising.

After all, the team is different.

At this time in previous years, the butcher had already started to call his teammates in Portland to eat, drink, whore and gamble. Now, it can only be the turn of the warden to lead the teammates... The coaching staff originally thought so.

Until one afternoon, the vice president saw Liu Xiu flickering... No, he was referring to the champion of parallel imports——

"Kwame, the butcher is gone, you are the only pillar inside our team..."

"What you have to do is not only to support the inside line on the court, but also to be the face of the team! After the butcher leaves, you will be the second head of our team!"

"Yes, you have to learn to get along with your teammates like him. The boss is not easy to mess with, and the second brother is the one everyone depends on."

"What do you mean you are afraid that you can't do well? You are no worse than a butcher...you...you...you are all from the 01 class, and you are the second brother of the team!"

While the vice president was speechless, he felt sorry for the warden.

The younger brother's IQ is too impatient, and it is actually quite difficult to fool him. The parallel import champion is too self-aware after being trained by the basketball god.

But after that, Kwame Brown really learned from Randolph, like the second head of the team, holding various VVVVVIP cards provided by Liu Xiu, and took his teammates to play together.

You can't expect the warden to "grow up" in this aspect, this guy can always find easier ways to deal with these things... The vice president doesn't think there is anything wrong, the warden has no worries about food and clothing, his wife is beautiful and his children Both, there is no need to grow into an old fritters.

Kwame Brown became the new second in charge, and Ray Allen was very happy. He didn't want to deal with those things that were not there.

On Liu Xiu's side, he could clearly feel the team's confidence was declining. There was no way to solve this problem. Apart from returning to the team early, he didn't deliberately tell his teammates that Randolph's departure would not affect the team's strength... Isn't that deception.

He remained normal in words and deeds, and remained calm, which was the best way he thought to deal with it.

The effect was very good. His calmness successfully infected his teammates. On September 9, after the team started the training camp a week earlier, the teammates, under the leadership of him and Kwame Brown, devoted themselves to the preparations for the defending season. .

Randolph's departure affected all aspects of the Trail Blazers. For example, Gasol Jr. became the team's next starting center candidate, and Kwame Brown switched to power forward.

Speaking of this, when the teammates first returned to the team, they saw Gasol Jr. and almost didn't recognize him!
In the past, his body shape was similar to that of the fat shark version of O'Neill, with the flesh hanging down.

But this past summer, Gasol Jr. lost 30 pounds in more than two months, and his weight dropped to 120 kilograms!

Muscle lumps can be seen in the arms and back of the neck.

But the warden, not surprisingly, has gained a lot of flesh in the past few months, and during the physical test, his weight broke through [-] again.

The twin towers have changed, and the tactical system has to be adjusted accordingly. Gasol has started, and the play style of the substitute lineup has to be adjusted accordingly.

Fortunately, Moustache did not leave, and agreed to a one-year renewal fee of US$500 million for the big dog, and continued to serve as a tactical consultant.

Last season's tactical system was not fully perfected, and Mustache's heart was itchy. During the offseason, he received invitations from several teams, but he didn't go. He was ready to fix the system.

Randolph's departure is a challenge for Mustache, but it is very common for players to leave the team. If you take this job, you must be mentally prepared to meet the challenge.

The warden is still there, in his opinion, the problem is not big!

...

Sometimes, you can't be too confident.

Not long after the training camp started, Mustache became irritable, even more irritable than last year.

He is used to using inside scorers at the level of Little Overlord and Butcher. If these two are the first offensive point under the system, he is confident that they can average 25+ per game.

Now replaced by Kwame Brown, Gasol Jr.... a bit tricky!
Gasol was easy to use last season because Gasol spent most of his time as a substitute, playing for up to ten minutes a game, rarely starting, and most of them played at specific times, which seemed natural. excellent.

Now... To put it simply, Gasol, who is only 24 years old, is not mature enough to be the core of tactics.

Judging from Mustache's experience in both the United States and Europe, a center like Gasol may even have to be around 30 years old for his coping ability to be perfect.

Come October, the official training camp begins.

On the 2nd media day, Moustache found the coach: "Morris, let's discuss, let's give up defense and run away! Boris will play the starting power forward, and our tactical system can be completed immediately."

The coach nodded and said: "Yes, but you will not give me the championship ring first. If we fail to win the championship due to running and bombing in the new season, your ring will be thrown into the Pacific Ocean and you can fish it yourself."

The mustache retreated, thinking how ruthless it was!
Didn't he just want to complain.

However, he also understands that the pressure on the coach is greater than him. He is only responsible for building the system and implementing this part. The coach is responsible. The pressure of coaching the game is greater than building the system!
If there is something wrong with the results of the new season, the blame will definitely not be the tactical consultant's, but the head coach's.

Time passed, the training camp ended, and the preseason of the 2009-2010 season began.

On October 10, the Trail Blazers ushered in a challenge from the Rockets.

The five-man team of Lowry, Hamilton, Granger, Varejao, and Bynum, as well as the bench lineup of Brooks, Darius Myers, Landry, Budinger, and Hayes, Facing the Trail Blazers with a heavy blow, they beat the defending champion 92 to 79.

In the starting lineup, facing the twin towers of Varejao and Bynum, who are full of energy and in the best condition, the second-year sister-in-law is holding back.

8投3中，拿到10分7板1助攻1盖帽2失误4犯规，被两人吊打。

夸梅-布朗8投5中拿到13分11板2助攻2盖帽，打得老累了。

In this game, the coaching staff of the Trail Blazers fully understood that talent and efficient performance last season can't explain anything.

Kwame Brown was not as efficient as Gasol Jr. in supporting passes last season, which was affected by starting and playing against the opponent's strongest inside line for a long time.

Kwame Brown is not as good as Gasol Jr. in supporting talent and passing skills, but with NBA game experience, ability to fight mid-point shots, and ability to find the boss after grabbing rebounds in the crowd, Kwame Brown is better than Gasol Jr. Sol is much better.

There is no way to solve this problem. Gasol needs time. After all, he is only a sophomore. His experience and resume in European and international competitions are not enough when he needs to become the frontcourt core of a championship team. up.

This is the same as Kwame Brown who just came to the Trail Blazers. He has to be given time, allowed to make mistakes, and given him the conditions to grow.

However, Kwame Brown was led by Randolph and Raheem at the beginning. Now, Kwame Brown has become the one who leads others to play, but in terms of overall ability, he is better than the two who led him to play. One...any one can't compare.

However, Gasol's weakness is mainly reflected in the offensive and defensive ends. Gasol has done quite well...

Based on this situation, on the night after the game with the Rockets, the coach held a meeting of the coaching staff to make adjustments-the tactical center of gravity was tilted outward, and he gave up last season's balanced inside and outside play.

Mustache feels that his coach is really decisive!No wonder it became a big deal.

If it was him, he would definitely struggle again.

In this kind of formal meeting, he did not shake his wits and say that he should support Dior. Dior's role as the core of tactics is very important, but he should play when the second and third teams play small forwards. Spectrum.

On the second day of training, the adjustments started directly, without hesitation and waiting, there was only so much time.

On the 13th, in the preseason game between the Trail Blazers and the Grizzlies, facing this opponent whose defense was no less difficult than Mosaic, the Trail Blazers' offensive end was much better.

Hill supports and double-guns the main attack, and the Trail Blazers play around this, which makes it much easier to play.

At the tactical system level, Liu Xiu has provided suggestions. This year they are more like the Warriors in the splash period, and there is no absolute strength in the frontcourt.

Although Kwame Brown's abilities are more comprehensive than ordinary blue-collars, the basics of his style of play are still blue-collars, but he has been working hard to improve and does not give up skills like other physical fitness men.

Pau Gasolnen, Birdman is a blue-collar player who gave up his skills, and Diaw is not a strong point, but the one who attacks in series. Batum is learning how to play from Dior, a player from the same country.

So compared to last season, he provided more advice this season.

But the content of his intervention is limited to his suggestions based on the Warriors' style of play during the splash period in his memory. He doesn't care how to operate it. During the running-in stage, he just implements the team's arrangements.

In tonight's game, what he cares about is the elementary school students and friends.

With the most talented shooting point guard and the most defensively talented center in history, the Grizzlies are going to play!
But Curry's little friend is so yuppie!

He was playing as a substitute today, and the warden on the opposite side stared at him from time to time as soon as he entered the arena.

Curry wanted to cry. Originally, he wanted to return to Charlotte to play. Boss Joe admired him very much. This year, only the Clippers and Suns are in the rich cities in the lottery. It is definitely impossible for the Clippers to choose him too late, so it is his goal to return to play in Charlotte, where he lived the longest when he was a child.

As a result, the 5th pick was cut off by the Grizzlies!
He didn't find it strange at all to be targeted by the warden, this guy is a well-known food abuser!
Then, facing Liu Xiu, he made 9 of 2 shots and scored 5 points. He was replaced by the young head coach of the Grizzlies, Dave Jogel, and couldn't stand it anymore.

Dave Jogel, only 35 years old, the youngest head coach in NBA history.

At the age of 30, he started his coaching career in a team affiliated with the Wizards, and later worked as an assistant coach for Carlisle, Rivers, and Popovich.

As a young head coach, he is very willing to give young players a chance, but how brave should this No. 5 pick be?Or should I say timid?

When Curry encountered the defense of the warden, a big defenseman, he slammed, and crazily shot against the defense in singles.

This made Liu Xiu stunned for a while, and wanted to see how talented the "most talented shooting point guard in history" is, but he saw one or two...

In the end, the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Grizzlies 95 to 88, and their preseason record improved to 1 win and 1 loss.

The Grizzlies feel like they are about to make a difference. Conley, Mayo, Battier's perimeter combination, and the center position has Oden, who is said to have gone to Germany for treatment in the summer...just short of a good offensive insider.

Liu Xiu was very worried at the beginning that Randolph would go to the Grizzlies. It is enough to have one difficult team in the West, and if there is another team, the probability of meeting in the playoffs will increase.

But some options, Randolph did not go to Memphis to play.

Originally, Randolph joined the Grizzlies in time and space, but he almost ran out of balls to play, and he was unwilling to sign a multi-million-dollar contract. Once such a big salary cut started, there was no going back. A lot. In the end, Bill Duffy licked his old face and begged his old friend Chris Wallace to make sure that he got Randolph a two-year contract with a maximum salary of $3300 million. The second year was still a team option. , Randolph began to "turn the prodigal son" from a law-abiding philandering fat man to a law-abiding philandering fat man.

Here, as a 4-time champion, multi-time best team + All-Star, Randolph of course chooses a big city.

It is rumored that the Grizzlies want to take advantage of the rookie contracts of Conley, Oden, Mayo and others to compete for the frontcourt stars of the 01 and 03 classes next summer, and the 11 class in the summer of 02.

Liu Xiu thinks that the Grizzlies' expectations are reliable. In the original time and space, the rise of Randolph after getting Randolph is really a piece of cake in the sky, and the Grizzlies don't want to eat it. Randolph begged The kind they eat.

...

Tilting the center of gravity of the system toward the outside, the Blazers' preparations immediately became smoother.

It was a decision Morris Cheeks didn't want to make, but it had to be done, and he did it without hesitation.

When Gasol grows up in the future, he will definitely readjust and 'enjoy' the current torture again.

But the coach doesn't care. Anyway, Liu Xiu and Ray Allen, the two outside superstars, are adaptable enough, and they work harder.

As for the sudden adjustment of the role players who may not adapt to the style of play... then just change the role players.

Of course, if a team dominated by pure outsiders can win, the coach feels that sacrificing Gasol is also possible...

The internal and external balance is the balance based on the premise of the warden, and the priority of the outside line is also the priority of the outside line based on the premise of the warden.

The next few preseason games, the Blazers played much better.

After circumventing the problem of Gasol serving as the core of the frontcourt, the Trail Blazers adjusted their system very smoothly, but the 28 to 33 minutes of playing time originally planned for Gasol dropped to 20 to 25 minutes, and the playing time was replaced by Diao. Separate with Batum, Birdman and others.

Little Gasol felt humiliated. He was very unwilling, but he also had a lot of self-esteem. He knew that it was caused by his lack of ability.

He is chagrined for his slack and indulgence.

He is also very smart, knowing that self-pity is useless, and self-destruction is not advisable. The matter is a foregone conclusion. The team will not sacrifice the present for him and wait for him to grow. He can only work hard to become stronger and let the team change for him.

At this time, he can only work hard to fulfill the role assigned by the team. He knows that he has to keep the starting position. If the team gives the starting position to the blue-collar Birdman or the Frenchman Batum, he will be really embarrassed. sent.

到了10月26号，开拓者队主场击败没有保罗的爵士队，8场季前赛取得了5胜3负的战绩。

Seeing what happened to Xiaopao, Liu Xiu felt that Iverson was really talented!

That kind of sharp change of direction, explosive acceleration and breakthrough, unexpectedly at this age, he can still average 20 points per game.

It's only been a few years for Xiaopao, and his knee is about to be damaged by playing.

But it is impossible for Liu Xiu to change Xiaopao's style of play before completely damaging his knee.

Everyone thinks they are the chosen one.

At the end of the preseason, the Trail Blazers took a day off to prepare for the regular season opener from the 28th to the 30th.

Liu Xiu and Ray Allen are strong enough, Hill and Diaw are capable of coping well, Batum's talent is also shown, and the main substitutes such as Outlaws, Bibby, Korver, Birdman, and Cunningham are also strong enough. Enough, clear tactical thinking, and experience from last season. After a few preseason games, adjustments have been made in a hurry.

After three days of preparations, the Trail Blazers, from the coaching staff to the players, felt that the preparations were almost done, and they all had a tacit understanding in the middle of last season.

In terms of strength... as the running-in progressed smoothly, the players' confidence recovered and they began to shake off the psychological blow brought about by Randolph's departure.

But the coaching staff can clearly feel that the strength of the players is not as good as when the start of last season was not well adjusted.

Liu Xiu also felt it here, and didn't care about it. They won 73 wins last season, how can this be compared.

Didn't he expect to be able to play so well at the beginning of last season? Anyway, he feels that they still have a lot of room for improvement.

The time came to October 10, at 31:7 in the morning, Liu Xiu woke up on time as usual, got up, washed up, and extracted the results of the simulated training with the remaining physical strength from yesterday's training.

"Name: Liu Xiu, English name: Jess.

Age: 27 years old (February 1982, 2)
Net height: 188 cm, wingspan 203 cm, weight: 102 kg.

Team: Portland Trail Blazers.

Ability evaluation: 97.

运动能力：速度96（爆发加速90），力量95（爆发力89），弹跳95（弹速91），灵活性95，体力94。

Basic skills: 93 three-pointers, 94 mid-range shots (upper limit), 96 layups (upper limit), ball handling 96 (upper limit), passing 92, turning 92, striding 87, turning over 92, emergency stop 94 (upper limit), throwing 92. Step back 93...

Skills: Low post-up 93 (upper limit), high post-up 89, off-dribble shooting 94 (upper limit), acceleration layup 92 on the move, European step 84, fadeaway jumper 91, rhythm flow breakthrough 94 (upper limit), front body Breakthrough 87, emergency stop jump shot 93 (upper limit), emergency stop catch and shoot 92, step-back shooting 89, post-up singles application skills 90, pick-and-roll with the ball 93 (upper limit), pick-and-roll technique application 89, three-threat play 69 , changing direction to 69 while moving..."

This offseason, the progress has been considerable!
The three-pointer has been raised to 9 in early September, and now it has been two months. This basic skill as the main attack point has improved compared to that time, but it has not yet reached the point of continuing to improve the evaluation.

This feeling of rapid progress, he felt it in the two years when he was 24 and five years old when he made the fastest progress!

He didn't expect at first that the extended growth period would actually be those two years!
Seeing that there were 139926 healing points left, he was a little entangled. This offseason training + learning techniques from Kobe and Nash turned on the fast learning mode, and spent more than 20 healing points.

The new season is about to start, you can save healing points.

To keep 10 to 20 to prevent injuries, that is, to save another [-] healing points, and after collecting [-], use it to increase the upper limit of talent.

The goal of improvement must first and foremost be three-pointers and mid-range shots.

He doesn't know if his three-point limit is 94, like ball control, the limit is 96,... Anyway, the mid-range shot is at the limit.

Taking advantage of the growth period of '24 five years old', I will definitely give priority to improving the three-pointer and mid-range shot, and then choose others if there are still conditions.

But if the upper limit of three-pointers is 94, then it is very entangled whether to make a mid-range shot or a three-pointer first.

After struggling for a while, he left this matter to his future self.

Let's talk about it at that time, thinking about it now is just futile.

After breakfast, he went to the Rose Garden Arena to continue preparing for the game. At noon, the system prompted that the player detection report had been updated!
"Ray Allen, 34 years old, 196 cm, 93 kg, SG, ability rating 88, offense 89, defense 86...98 three-pointers...

Kwame Brown, 27 years old, 211 cm, 122 kg, C/PF, ability evaluation 86, offense 78, defense 94, passing 74, rebounding 86, three-pointers, 79 mid-range shots, 88 layups..."

He first asked the system to call up the player detection reports of the two strongest teammates.

The three-point leader who has been declining for several years in a row has not fallen at the age of 34!

In other words, the continuation of their style of play has been long, and it has declined in between. It is only because of the adjustment of the style of play, from the style of star players to the style of role players, and the change of all-around functions, that the inevitable decline occurs.

After the adjustment, it will naturally stabilize.

The Erdangjia has improved again. The comprehensive evaluation has reached 86, and CIC has made a leap to 79!If you go one step further, it is an excellent level of CIC.

But, it seems that it is only 1 point away, but in fact, it may not be crossed in a lifetime.

Just like the layup of the champion of parallel imports, it is really difficult to describe in words. That buttery player still has to come once every game so far.

"Chris Anderson, 31 years old, 208 cm, 111 kg, PF/C, ability rating 69, offense-, defense 81...

Grant Hill, 37 years old, 203 cm, 102 kg, SF/PF, ability evaluation 84, offense 79, defense 86, passing 86...

Travis Outlaw, 25 years old, 206 cm, 101 kg, SF/PF, ability rating 85, offense 84, defense 90...

Marc Gasol, 24 years old, 215 cm, 1120 kg, C, ability evaluation 79, offense 76, defense 81...

Kyler Korver, 28 years old, 201 cm, 96 kg, SF/SG, ability rating 72…

Boris Diaw, 27 years old, 203 cm, 98 kg, SF/PF, ability rating 78..."

The mainstays of last season are still awesome!

The extrajudicial lunatic played as a substitute, and his performance soared to the level of a first-class star, with excellent offense and top defense.

Gasol Jr. has made rapid progress, and he is close to excellent in the second grade.

Hill's age has improved, probably because he is healthier and has adjusted his playing style better.

When the media reported on Hill, they felt that their worldview had been refreshed.

Grant Hill! The glass man, who was reimbursed for 7 years in 5 years and was absent for less than half of the remaining two years, has become the "healthiest player".

"Goran Dragic, 23 years old, 191 cm, 86 kg, PG, ability rating 69...

Steve Novak, 26 years old, 208 cm, 102 kg, SF, ability rating 62…

Nicolas Batum, 21 years old, 203 cm, 91 kg, SF, ability rating 70..."

Last season's alternate player, Novak is still the same, with a single function, and Dragic has made slow progress.

Batum is different, he has made great progress.

"Mike Bibby, 31 years old, 185 cm, 86 kg, PG, ability rating 77...

Dante Cunningham, 22 years old, 203 cm, 100 kg, SF/PF, ability rating 68, offense 61, defense 79...

Maurice Evans, 31 years old, 196 cm, 99 kg, SF/SG, ability rating 69…”

The three new teammates have their own characteristics, and the team also has their positions. Not only in the player detection report, Liu Xiu can also feel it in the preseason. The newcomer Cunningham is very motivated, Bibby And Maurice Evans may have come to the championship team and worked hard.

But Bibby slipped so fast!At only 31 years old, he has already slipped to the starting level of weak teams, but he is enough to play as a substitute and has rich experience. It is estimated that at this age, in order to compete for the championship, he will also have the attribute of hard work.

After looking at the player detection reports of his teammates one by one, Liu Xiu scanned the player detection reports of all his teammates again.

This year, a teammate with comprehensive strength reaching the top level is hard to come by.

For the first time in my career!
After he took a deep breath, eat!

Only when you are full can you work hard, practice boxing in the afternoon and take a lunch break to prepare for the competition!
