Chapter 353 Returning to the team early

Since Xue Yubing was already in her senior year and had to go back to school early to start choosing topics for her graduation thesis, Xu Hao could only reluctantly send her to the plane.Seeing a silver eagle soaring into the sky, Xu Hao smiled while sitting in the driver's seat, and began to think about how to live the next day.There is still about half a month before the start of the training camp, so I have to find something to pass the time.

Continue to practice?During Xue Yubing's time in Minneapolis, Xu Hao had no worries at all. He felt that he had mastered [-]% to [-]% of Hardaway's crotch dribble, and the rest was just grinding.

Going on vacation?Xu Hao felt that he might not be a normal person. If Xue Yubing hadn't returned to China, it would certainly be a good choice to take her to places like Hawaii or Miami for vacation.It's a pity that it's a little weird to go on vacation by myself now, and Xu Hao has always been afraid of trouble, so it's better not to show up as a public figure.

After much deliberation, it seems that continuing to live in the apartment is the best choice. Xu Hao said that he should place an order online to buy a latest game console, which is enough for him to pass the time. As an otaku, game consoles are the standard Match it!
Having made up his mind, Xu Hao took out his cell phone and prepared to go online to check the price. However, before he even opened the browser, his cell phone began to vibrate "buzzingly".Looking at McHale's name on the screen, Xu Hao's face twisted into a bitter melon.

After reluctantly pressing the answer button, McHale's voice came from the phone: "Chris, I'm calling to inform you that our training camp starts earlier this year, and we will come to the training hall in three days' time. Report now!"

Hmm... Xu Hao has ten thousand MMP things to say in his heart. He had already decided to buy a game console to get over it, but he was caught off guard by the team. Could you guys please tell me about such a big event in advance?What is the rhythm of the surprise attack at this time?After hanging up the phone, Xu Hao sighed helplessly. It seemed that his vacation was coming to an early end.

In fact, Xu Hao knows exactly what the team management thinks. Isn't it because Rubio's joining requires everyone to spend more time to get along?And some positions still need to be adjusted, so this year's training camp started early.

After resting at home for two days, Xu Hao showed up at the team's training hall on time according to McHale's notice.When he showed up at the training ground, several Timberwolves players had already arrived, including the frowning Ellington.With Rubio's arrival this time, he was the one who was most affected. The difference between the starter and the substitute is quite big.

Xu Hao walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and whispered: "Wayne, don't think too much, these things should be considered by the coaching staff, what we have to do is to implement, of course, if you have any opinions, you can also discuss them in private." Talk to the coach."

Ellington sighed, shook his head and said: "Sometimes I really wish I could grow taller, so that I can swing to the small forward position. After Rubio came, the starting point guard must be his. Reece, you should be placed on the second position, what about me? What can I do? I can still go to the third position to compete with Corey for a job? I think it’s better to be a substitute for you brother, you can’t come At that time, I played more than 40 minutes per game, how about leaving some soup for me?"

Although Ellington's tone seemed to be joking, Xu Hao could hear the helplessness and sadness in his words.In fact, for a player like Ellington who is not high in the draft and has average talent, it is the most painful to have a star with overlapping positions on the same team, especially Xu Hao, who plays for more than 40 minutes at every turn. He won't have much time.

For Ellington, the best way is to continue to improve his advantages and strive to become the top 3D player in the league. At this level, any team is willing to offer him a contract with sufficient respect.Of course, the premise is that he will leave his home team. Xu Hao's defense and three-pointers are better than him. It is difficult for him to stand out in the Timberwolves.

However, Xu Hao will not let Ellington apply for a trade to the team in a twitch. He feels that his fellow student still has great potential, and the improvement in the past two seasons is very obvious.Even if you want to find a new team that is willing to provide a starting position, it is best to follow them to win the championship. In that case, the value should continue to rise.

When it was almost 9 o'clock, the Timberwolves' players were almost all there.During Xu Hao's training period, the team management was not idle. They gave up Brewer and Sessions and brought in Barea and Wesley Johnson to further enhance the team's talent.Originally they wanted to get Beasley through a trade, but the Heat's asking price was not low, and the Timberwolves were unwilling to give up too many potential players.

Just when everyone was looking forward to it, McHale strode in, followed by someone. Xu Hao recognized it at a glance. It was Rubio who participated in the trial training with him and played inseparably.Oh no, it's hard to explain but it still gave the European golden boy face. In fact, Xu Hao completely beat Rubio in almost every aspect.

However, in the past two seasons, I heard that Rubio played very well in Europe, and he is already the undisputed core of Barcelona. It must have made a lot of progress compared to the trial training that year, which also gave Xu Hao the opportunity to play against him again. interest of.However, now that everyone is wearing Timberwolves jerseys, cooperation is still more important than confrontation, which is what the team hopes to see.

Although he is the most famous supernova in European basketball, Rubio seemed very humble. When McHale introduced every Timberwolves player to him, he smiled and shook hands no matter whether he was a starter or a substitute, and he seemed to treat them equally.

Soon Rubio walked up to Xu Hao, and McHale didn't intend to introduce them. Anyway, they both left a deep impression on each other at the beginning. There must be no problem even if they don't introduce each other. This is the so-called mutual sympathy.

Xu Hao smiled and took the lead in extending his hand: "Welcome to Minnesota. I believe that our team's strength will be even better after you join. But I also hope that you can meet the tactical requirements. Everyone here is equal."

Rubio didn't seem to hear what Xu Hao meant. He also smiled and held Xu Hao's hand, and said sincerely: "I basically watched all of your games last season. I think this is a very capable player." It’s also a very talented group, and I feel lucky to be a part of it and help the team reach a higher level in the new season.”
