The strongest basket king

Chapter 106 The Dunk Contest
In confrontation training, Mozgov is ready to fight, and he is also an ambitious player.

After coming to the NBA, Mozgov is also gaining weight. He used to be considered a technical insider, but now he is changing to a heavy insider. Everything is for adaptation.

In fact, he gained weight a little faster than Xiang Chu, but he did not maintain his body fat rate as well as Xiang Chu.

If he can perform better than Xiang Chu, maybe he can also start. He has starting experience. After McGee was traded last season, he played a few starts and became a substitute.

To gain a foothold in the best basketball league in the world, you must always be ready to compete.

Mozgov was ready, but when Xiang Chu squeezed inside, his expression changed.

Compared with a few months ago, Xiang Chu seems to have been reborn.

Go directly to the position in the low post, then turn around and dunk, domineering and unparalleled.

There were exclamations from all around, Xiang Chu's appearance was even more shocking than they had imagined, and Mozgov was simply crushed.

Mozgov's eyes were a little red for a moment, and he still had to gain weight. It was too difficult to be in the league without confrontation.

The Nuggets also had a few dunks, and Faried ran over and clapped. "I like your dunk, man."

It was just a confrontation training, and Xiang Chu's strength was recognized by everyone.

Compared with the playoffs a few months ago, his strength has increased again, and the Nuggets' coaching staff is also very excited. Xiang Chu improved rapidly last season, and he did not expect to be able to improve in the summer.

You must know that in competitive sports, the higher the level, the harder it is to improve. It is normal for Xiang Chu to enter the league to receive professional training and improve, but if he can improve in the summer, it shows his talent.

Compared with Iguodala, a player who has seen the upper limit, Xiang Chu is obviously more surprising.

After the training, Ty Lawson said very enthusiastically: "Let's go out for a drink together, I know a good place, some new buddies, I treat you today, and you will know where to relax in Denver in the future .”

After Anthony left, Ty Lawson and Gallinari were the team's strengths. Gallinari was a foreigner, and Ty Lawson was conscious of becoming the team's leader.

If the boss of the team speaks in person, everyone will basically save face.

"I still have something to do at night, and I may have to leave early later." Iguodala and Ty Lawson said.

Although he had just met, Xiang Chu also noticed that Iguodala and other black buddies have different interests, and they seldom chatted with each other except basketball during training breaks.

It should be related to the growth environment. He is different from other basketball players. He invests in the first year when he gets his salary. Now he has invested in several companies. He is a very rational person. Playing basketball is his profession. , he will not devote all of it.

Xiang Chu is also the first time to come into contact with this type of athlete, but he doesn't mind, as long as he works hard on the court.

Unexpectedly, as the current boss of the team, Ty Lawson completely changed when he went to the store to drink.

This buddy drank too much himself and persuaded others to drink, and Iguodala left after a while.

Xiang Chujiu stayed for a while, drank two glasses, and didn't drink any more.

In the end, there were only a few people left to fight for wine, and Xiang Chu also left. On the training ground the next day, I felt that those few people were still head-heavy.

George Karl's complexion was a little bad, and he deliberately increased the training intensity.

Those guys drank a little too much last night and had a sour face all day long. George Karl had a bigger temper than Mike Brown. If he was not satisfied, he would scold people directly, and his teammates didn't dare to confront them openly.

Unexpectedly, after the training was over, Ty Lawson proposed to treat guests in turn, so everyone should get acquainted with each other.

Xiang Chu secretly asked Farid, "Is he always like this?"

Faried didn't take it seriously, "The coach will watch it during the regular season. In fact, Tai is very measured and will not affect the game. If you don't like it, you don't have to go. Our players here are not difficult to get along with."

Xiang Chu would definitely not go drinking with the other party frequently, and he was the same with the Lakers.

However, it is still necessary to invite guests to show his willingness to blend in.

But Xiang Chu will choose a cleaner restaurant, and he will definitely accompany him to the end of the treat, he doesn't want to have a few people drunk at the end.

After more than a week of training, everyone gradually became familiar with each other.

Xiang Chu, Faried, and Wilson Chandler, who played in the league in Huaguo, have a relatively good relationship.

In October, the preseason officially began, and the first game of the Nuggets was to play the Clippers away.

Xiang Chu and the Clippers still have a bit of fate, and they played against them at the beginning of last season.

Clippers Paul truce, Eric Bledsoe starts.

The Clippers' performance in the playoffs a few months ago was unsatisfactory. They also made every effort to replenish their personnel in the summer. With Paul and the inside twin towers, they definitely hope to go further.

They traded for Odom, signed the best sixth man Jamal Crawford, former All-Star Grant Hill, and Xiang Chu's former teammate Barnes.

The Nuggets will not play everyone today, but the main players will still be there.

Because of the trading of the Nuggets' main force and the change of two positions last season, the running-in of the preseason is very important.

Iguodala will partner with Ty Lawson on the back line, Xiang Chu and Faried will partner on the inside, and Gallinari will be the other. This lineup can be regarded as having both inside and outside, but it also has shortcomings.

The outside line is good, but the ability to open up space is not very strong. Everyone likes to kill at the basket. In addition, the help defense at the basket is very average. Neither Xiang Chu nor Farid is a master of help defense.

George Karl is also a coach who advocates more offense, and it is the kind of hardcore offense, which may be the reason why he coached the NBA relatively early.

"Boys, go shred 'em, they're no big deal."

The Clippers took the lead in attacking, Bledsoe broke through and scored, and Jordan jumped up and dunked.

Xiang Chu stepped forward to make up the defense and could only helplessly watch Jordan smiling at him, but when he turned around, Xiang Chu directly caught the ball inside and squeezed Jordan to make a heavy dunk.

The Xiang Chu in Xiao Qiaodan's impression didn't have such resistance at all, and he didn't react for a long time.

It's only a preseason game, but the two teams started off very well, and the commentators were also excited.

"Oh my god, another dunk, this time it's Faried."

"Xiang Chu, Faried, Griffin, and Jordan started the slam dunk contest, which is really exciting."

"Iguodala has also joined in, and the Nuggets' new players this season are in good condition."

Several new Clippers players also performed well, especially Crawford's scoring ability really exploded, but there are exceptions, such as Odom.

Odom felt that he was useless. He made various mistakes when he came up, and Xiang Chu slapped him hard for his slow layup.

Very cool, the feeling of starting is really cool.

Facing the Clippers again, Xiang Chu gained a lot. The offense has improved to a certain extent, and he also needs to work hard on the defense. After all, as the team's starting No. [-], he can't let the guys who come in be too rampant.
