Chapter 342 Introduction
"The involution is serious!"

Chan Ning sighed, finally won the championship, and could enjoy the extravagant offseason, but was dragged back by the serial calls of the old guy Cheeks, and had to face the problem of reinforcement and competition.

Dayao looked at Cheeks and Channing, but did not speak. After being in touch with Qianning for a long time, Dayao already believed that there must be something different about this young man, a special magical power, so Dayao met I am used to not speaking when doing things, and listening to Qian Ning's opinions.

"Cough cough!"

Channing cleared his throat and began his statement:

"First of all, why do you need reinforcements? I mean, Coach Cheeks, do you think that the dual-core team led by Dayao and I are not big enough? Which superstar are you going to buy in the free market with $2000 million? "

Channing's question was very straightforward, which made Coach Cheeks blush and quickly waved his hands to explain:

"No, no, I didn't mean to disrespect you. In fact, it has always been an honor for the Philadelphia team to get you two, and it is also an honor for me."

"Then what are you afraid of? We have already won the championship and proved our strength. I remember an old saying in the NBA that those who win don't need to make any changes, don't they?"

Cheeks falters:
"Indeed, but they are all strengthening, and we do lack the background of a strong team, as the media said, so..."

"Hahahaha!"

Channing laughed out loud, interrupting Cheeks:
"What is the background of a strong team? Kobe is the background of the Lakers, Garnett is the background of the Celtics, Duncan is to the Spurs, James is to Cleveland, the same is true. To put it bluntly, Americans still think that I and Yao are not enough. It's just a big name!"

Although he is a mentor, he is an American after all, and the arrogance in his bones is difficult to change. In the end, Cheeks’ lack of confidence is still due to his lack of confidence in the fact that there are no American superstars in the team. team distrust.

Yao Ming was also a little surprised by Channing's sudden accentuation. Coach Cheeks quickly apologized, expressing that he had absolutely no intention of doing so. The third super giant thought.

Seeing Cheeks' attitude of admitting his mistake was quite sincere, Channing's tone softened, and he gave Cheeks a trick:
"If we want to defend the title, our main frame cannot be changed. The brothers have been training together for a whole year, and it is time for results. We must not make side effects. If we want to strengthen, we can work hard on role players, such as finding suitable players. Candidates to replace Sam Cassell and Dikembe Mutombo, preferably an insider."

"Also, I think our team has only four available players in the second and third positions. The schedule is intense and fierce. Once someone is injured, I am afraid that the rotation of personnel will be stretched. Therefore, I recommend a person, Zhu Fangyu, from the Guangdong team of China!"

Yao Ming was taken aback for a moment, and immediately realized that Qian Ning was very close to Wang Qi and Zhu Ba in China some time ago, so it turned out that they were plotting this.

Dayao also quickly echoed: "That's right, Zhu Fangyu is the best shooter at the [-]rd position in China, and he is also very strong, enough to adapt to the NBA arena. I think he is a target that can be approached."

Channing smiled and waved his hands:
"Brother Yao, you are too modest. Although we are compatriots, we must promote talents and not avoid relatives. Say what you want. Zhu Fangyu's strength is believed to be well-known in the American basketball circle."

Next, it took Channing 2 minutes to give coach Cheeks a brief introduction to Zhu Fangyu.

A terrible shooter in the international arena, good at running and catching the ball and shooting three-pointers. He is strong enough to be able to reach the fourth position on the defensive end. He also once had a three-pointer with the ball in the Olympic Games ** James' highlight performance .

In the 2008 BJ Olympics last year, Zhu Fangyu was the most reliable three-pointer in the Chinese team. Liu Wei or Sun Yue played point guard, Chen Ning played shooting guard, Zhu Fangyu played small forward, Yi Jianlian played power forward, Yao Ming played center, The starting configuration of the Chinese national team is enough to break the wrist with the American dream team when they are physically strong, and they also defeated Spain with a strong starting.

Many NBA teams were interested in contacting Zhu Fangyu, and some teams directly offered an olive branch to Zhu Fangyu, but they were all short-term contracts. Zhu Fangyu felt that it was not safe enough, so he never came.

So this time, Chan Ning strongly recommended in front of Coach Cheeks, just to sell his favor and ask Cheeks to offer Zhu Fangyu a formal contract. Otherwise, Zhu Fangyu would not be able to come.

Both parties were interested, and with Qian Ning in the middle, Coach Cheeks got in touch with the Guangdong team very quickly. Zhu Fangyu had already greeted the Guangdong team. The two hit it off immediately. If the performance is qualified, he will be able to get a formal offer contract from Philadelphia.

To be honest, Zhu Fangyu's true strength is still a long way from the NBA, but just like Xiaoding back then, Zhu Fangyu is also playing casually in the top three positions in China, and there is no room for growth, so money Ning had to work hard to get him to the United States, to receive the most scientific training, and to see the top competition, and only then could Zhu Fangyu continue to improve.

So, it doesn't matter if Zhu Fangyu is not good enough to reach the NBA level. Anyway, he is the third small forward candidate of the Philadelphia team. He usually trains with the team and spends garbage time. When someone is injured, he can reach the requirement for a few minutes. Philadelphia Team expectations are not high.

As for what level Zhu Fangyu can grow to after playing with the team for a year or two, and how big a contract he can earn by relying on his own strength, that depends on his own luck. Le's direction of development, if it is not good, at most it will be the next Zhou Qiqi, anyway, Qian Ning is doing his best to help.

Another week later, Zhu Fangyu officially came to Philadelphia to meet with Channing and Yao Ming, and after a small gathering, he accepted the trial training in Philadelphia.

It can be seen that Zhu Fangyu has worked hard in advance. On the NBA level three-point line, his long-range shots are very impressive. Coach Cheeks expressed his interest. Looking at Channing's face, he specially called the ball Some young players from all walks of life in the gymnasium who also came for trial training brought Zhu Fangyu to play a friendly match.

The participants are all unknown wild ball masters from all walks of life, as well as the gold diggers who have failed in the draft in recent years. Everyone wants to express themselves with the ball. Only Zhu Fangyu does not occupy the ball, and he is very efficient. He has a high degree of confidence in his shots and can score. This point is higher than others.
