King of the Point Guard Era

Chapter 38 Trial Training

Time flies, on May 5st, in the thrilling lottery, as the league's fourth-last Wizards, they got the No. 21 lottery. The 76ers also won the second place. The fifth pick, and this pick basically bid farewell to He Yixiang's competition.The King's general manager shook his head, obviously not satisfied with such a pick.

After the lottery is drawn, the teams will soon invite these popular draft picks to participate in the trial training.The Wizards, the 76ers, and the Nets sent He Yixiang invitations for trial training one after another. He Yixiang is not that kind of big-name rookie, so he naturally accepted these trial training invitations. May 5 Wizards, No. 5 25ers, No. 28 Nets.The first two teams praised He Yixiang's performance, but they did not commit to the draft. Obviously, He Yixiang may not be his No.76 pick in their hearts.However, He Yixiang is not very optimistic about the first two teams. The Wizards still have Arenas at the point guard position. The Wizards' poor record last year has a lot to do with Arenas being suspended for 31 games because of the gun incident. relationship, so for the Wizards, He Yixiang has no hope.For the title of No. 1 pick, He Yixiang cares more about whether there is a team with enough space for him to play. The 50ers began to focus on training Lou Williams after Iverson released the remaining year of his contract because of his daughter's high fever, and the latter also returned to the team with an excellent performance of 76 points per game. Wall and He Yixiang, the 14ers need a tall shooting guard, such as Evan Turner.

On the 31st, at the Newark International Airport in New Jersey, an Asian man with a height of at least [-] meters was looking around while holding a mobile phone, obviously waiting for someone, and his burly figure was naturally eye-catching. He Yixiang and Su Ruoxuan found him easily first.

"Hello, I'm He Yixiang." He Yixiang and Su Ruoxuan walked over with a smile, greeted first, and extended their hands.

"Hello, Yi Jianlian." Yi Jianlian was a little cautious, but he happily held He Yixiang's hand.Ever since he knew that the new Chinese team will recruit He Yixiang and him to form a new dual core, he has been very excited, and he has long been fascinated by this partner.Having played in the United States for three years, he naturally understands how powerful a 19-year-old rookie is in the top three, not to mention he has won the NCAA MOP.So when he knew that He Yixiang was coming to the Nets for trial training, he also took the initiative to take on the task of receiving He Yixiang, and met this boy who was about to become a teammate of the Chinese team.

Along the way, Yi Jianlian naturally introduced this team to He Yixiang and Su Ruoxuan in detail. Last season, the Nets had the league's worst record of 12 wins and 70 losses, and created the NBA's worst start to a season record of 18 consecutive losses. Yi Jianlian is also very happy to collect statistics for the Nets, averaging 12 points and 7.2 rebounds per game, which is the first time he averaged double figures after entering the NBA.He also hopes that the Nets can choose He Yixiang. He has a relatively introverted personality. If there is He Yixiang, who is also from China, and also serves as a point guard in the team, then he may encounter a new growth.However, in the Nets there is also the All-Star point guard Devin Harris in 09. Although he has declined due to injuries, he still contributed 16.9 points and 6.6 assists, so the Nets' demand for He Yixiang is not exceptional. obvious.

In the Nets' training arena, due to the poor record of the previous year, many players still stayed in the Nets' training hall for additional training. The core duo of the Nets, Harris and Lopez, were all present. Obviously, the two of them Dissatisfied with his team's record last year, Yi Jianlian brought He Yixiang over to meet his former Mavericks coach Avery Johnson. It seems that the Nets' intention to hire him is not groundless.

"He, judging from the report of the joint trial training, your physical fitness is amazing! However, since we have the physical report of the joint trial training, do you want to play a game with us?" Avery Johnson said to He Yixiang's arrival seemed extremely happy.

"Fight?" He Yixiang didn't understand the meaning.

"That's what you heard, there are still 11 people here, plus you, you play a 20-minute training match, isn't it an old saying in your China? It's a mule or a horse, and you'll know if you take it out for a walk. But Yi told me."

He Yixiang looked at Su Ruoxuan, nodded to each other, and agreed to this method. Since Avery Johnson had this request, it was not a problem for him. The grouping was quickly determined by him, He Yixiang, Yi Jianlian, Humphrey Reese, Courtney Lee, Chris Douglas-Roberts is a red team, while the other is a core duo plus Bobby Simmons, Terrence Williams, Josh Brown Enbai team.

Seeing this grouping, Su Ruoxuan looked dissatisfiedly at Avery Johnson, who was still there. The core duo was on the same team. He Yixiang had never gotten along with the members of the Nets. How could this be possible? He Yixiang seemed to have noticed Su Ruoxuan's dissatisfaction: "It's okay, this kind of game is to see my state, it is not so important to the outcome." As for whether the outcome is really unimportant, only He Yixiang knows.

Chris Douglas Roberts saw He Yixiang go up and hugged him: "Thank you, He, for bringing Memphis a championship." Being reversed made him a little ashamed of his teacher. Fortunately, He Yixiang won a championship for Memphis this year.

"Chris, the teacher often talked about you. He was also very moved by your three years of dedication in college, and he didn't blame you for what happened back then. Should we teach the opposite party a lesson now?"

Chris Douglas Roberts smiled wryly. As expected of a person who just won the MOP, he is very confident, and it is really easy to say. As a person who is also in charge of the wind and rain in the NCAA, he came to the NBA and finally understood why others always said playing basketball. Rely on body and talent.

The white team easily jumped to the ball, Harris crossed the ball in front of him, suddenly accelerated a step and forcibly passed He Yixiang, facing Yi Jianlian's supplementary defense, he made a strong pick and succeeded: "Young man, at this level, the MVP is still far away from you Let’s go.” Apparently, Harris also heard some of He Yixiang’s remarks and used this ball to express his dissatisfaction.Yi Jianlian came up to comfort him: "Don't worry, it's just one ball. Don't worry too much about being passed by him. He is the fastest guard in the NBA right now."

He Yixiang glanced at Yi Jianlian gratefully: "No, the game has just begun." Even though it was just a training game, this is the NBA I long for.
