NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

After washing the ball, Li Kaiming attacked again.

This time, Arenas was more decisive in the attack, and immediately stuck up the serve, and then firmly stuck Li Kaiming's bottom plate.

But he still underestimated Li Kaiming's strength.

The strength attribute of 80 allows him to be able to do a job with ease in the inside of the nba, not to mention facing the little guy Arenas!

Arenas seemed to be pressing fiercely to defend, but Li Kaiming pushed half a meter away with his strength.

Arenas still refused to accept it and wanted to continue to defend closely, but Li Kaiming rushed up like a tank at full throttle. Arenas' small body was nothing to him, and Li Kaiming finished with a dunk again!

Arenas expressed dissatisfaction and continued to wash the ball...

A few minutes later, Li Kaiming scored the 22nd point with another one-handed dunk.

As for Arenas opposite him, except for scoring a three-pointer at the beginning, he didn't even touch the ball behind him.

No, I touched it when washing the ball.

Arenas was a little aggrieved.

I am a three-time all-star, and I was beaten by a rookie in the heads-up session that I am best at!

It’s tolerable, it’s unbearable!

But Li Kaiming properly gave Arenas a step down.

"One-on-one is definitely the advantage of the inside line. If it is better than shooting, I will definitely not be able to compare with you!"

Arenas looked a little better, "Boy, your strength is stronger than most insiders in the NBA!"

Li Kaiming smiled embarrassingly, "I'm still far behind, that's why I didn't hesitate to come and train with you! I want to learn from you!"

Hearing this half-flattering words, although Arenas's face didn't change much, his heart was already full of joy!

A talented No. [-] pick like Li Kaiming actually wants to study with him!

What does this mean? It means that he is 13 in Arenas!

Moreover, the Wizards were not good inside. Now that Li Kaiming is selected, the inside strength will be greatly improved. This season's team may enter the playoffs!

Thinking of this, Arenas was faintly excited, he began to look forward to the new season!

The Wizards also made some trades during the offseason. Li Kaiming paid the most attention to Yi Jianlian, the second head of the Huaguo National Team, who was traded to the Wizards for Quentin Rose by the Nets plus 300 million cash.

Such a news did not cause any waves in America, but it became the most popular basketball news in China after the Big Three of the Heat!

Yi Jianlian teamed up with Li Kaiming, the new top pick, and immediately raised the attention of the Wizards to a new level!

More and more people in Huaguo regard the Wizards as their home team, and Li Kaiming's reputation in Huaguo has skyrocketed!

Many people have already started to leave messages on online forums, asking Hongxin Erke, when will Li Kaiming's signature shoe, Kaiming Generation, be released!

……

The time came to July 2010, 7. The Washington Wizards announced the lineup for this season's summer league on the team's official website.

What made Huaguo fans feel their blood spurt was that Huaguo defender Sun Yue appeared in the Wizards' roster!

Sun Yue participated in the summer league twice before this. The first time was after being selected by the Lakers in 2007. In five games, he averaged 3.6 points and 4.6 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was only 30%.

In 2009, he represented the New York Knicks to participate in the summer league again, but the result was still unsatisfactory, and he was cut before the preseason!

But this year is different. In addition to Li Kaiming, the Wizards also traded for Yi Jianlian, and now let Sun Yue play in the summer league.

This made Huaguo fans' favor towards the Wizards rise to an unprecedented level!

There were even rumors among the fans that Li Kaiming, the new top pick, used his influence to win opportunities for Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue!

In just a few days, the Wizards became a team on par with the Houston Rockets in the eyes of Chinese fans.

In addition to the summer league roster announced today, what is more important to Li Kaiming is that today is the day he signed with the team.

His beautiful manager Monica also rushed over, and finally, after friendly negotiations, the two parties finalized a four-year 2400 million contract!

Before that, Li Kaiming thought that his annual salary was only 400 million. Unexpectedly, with the rise of the salary cap, the starting salary of the No. 600 pick reached [-] million!

After signing, the most important thing is the summer league.

奇才队参加了本赛季的拉斯维加斯夏季联赛，赛程从7月11日开始到7月17日结束，一共5场比赛。

The summer league coach is the team's assistant coach Sam Cassell.

That is, one of the original Timberwolves "three-headed monster", Kassel nicknamed "Alien".

Calling him an "alien" is not because of his superb skills or weird style of play, but because the guy's image is similar to the aliens in science fiction movies.

The head is big, the facial features are squeezed in the middle, and the forehead is shiny.

After seeing this guy for the first time, Li Kaiming also had to admire the guy who nicknamed Cassel.

It's so similar!

The players participating in the summer league arrived at the team's training ground before the game.

As for Li Kaiming, it was also the first time he met this Chinese player who was called "Monkey King".

The hair on his two sideburns is shaved relatively short, and he looks very energetic!

Sun Yue's eyes lit up when he saw Li Kaiming, and he immediately walked over.

Li Kaiming also smiled, stretched out his fist and collided with Sun Yue's.

"Hello, Sun Yue, I heard they call you the Great Sage!"

Sun Yue, who has a more cheerful personality, rarely showed a shy expression.

"No, it's you who can speak Mandarin so well!"

Li Kaiming squeezed his eyes, "No matter where I am, I am a descendant of Chinese people!"

Sun Yue laughed, and at the same time relaxed her heart.

He chose to come to the Wizards to participate in the Summer League. In addition to wanting to fight again, he also had other tasks.

Someone from the national team told him to come to the Wizards to get in touch with Li Kaiming. Before he came, he would feel that this was a very difficult task.

But after meeting Li Kaiming for the first time, he knew that it was only a matter of time before Li Kaiming represented Hua Guo in the game!

After the team assembled, assistant coach Cassell immediately led the team to Las Vegas.

On the plane, the eccentric Cassel actually let Li Kaiming sit next to him.

Looking at Cassel's weird face, Li Kaiming suppressed the discomfort in his heart and asked carefully, "Coach, what did you call me for?"

Kassel remained silent, just silently flipping through the tactical manual in his hand.

Li Kaiming: ...

Grandma, tell me to come over and you are talking!

Just when his patience was about to wear off, Cassel spoke up.

"Li, Arenas told me you are strong!"

Fortunately, this guy's voice doesn't sound like an alien!

Li Kaiming complained silently in his heart.

"It's okay, hahaha!"

He laughed awkwardly twice, then replied.

Cassel still didn't look up, "Take it easy in the summer league, don't play too hard, in case of injury the loss outweighs the gain."

So that's it!

Li Kaiming suddenly realized that it seemed that the team management was afraid that he would play without a brain and get injured by going on a rampage.

In the summer league, generally only those undrafted picks who don't play will try their best to perform, so that they can earn themselves a contract.

From the perspective of the team, a man like Li Kaiming doesn't need to bend down to compete with those undrafted picks.

Having said that, Li Kaiming is a person who doesn't like to lose. If he can't do his best in the game, is it possible to save his strength for nightclubs?
