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

After Arenas came to the training ground, he immediately gave a high-five to all the Wizards players, but I don't know if he did it on purpose, and he left Li Kaiming for the end.

Li Kaiming didn't think much about it at first. For him, the return of Arenas must have more advantages than disadvantages. Now that the Wizards lack a stable scoring point outside, the team's record can be guaranteed when Arenas returns.

Arenas finally finished high-fiving with the others, and then turned his gaze to Li Kaiming. After standing still for a second, Arenas squeezed an unnatural smile on his face and walked towards the latter.

"Li, I saw your performance when you were recovering. It's really amazing!"

Li Kaiming frowned. Today's Arenas seems to be a bit different from the first time he met, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different.

If he had to describe it, it would be that Arenas from before, just like a fairy in the sky when he looked at him, with a hint of domineering air in every move.

But the current Arenas, I can see a trace of fear in his eyes!

That's right, fear!

However, Li Kaiming would not directly tear apart the skin with Arenas just because of a look in his eyes, so he stretched out his arms and hugged Arenas together.

"You are finally back!"

He said these words with sincerity, but in the complicated ears of Arenas, it had a different meaning.

What are you doing back here?This team is the same with you or without you!The record is even better than before!

Arenas patted Li Kaiming on the shoulder, a stern look flashed in his eyes.

Head coach Saunders saw his two generals hugging each other like "brothers", with a gratified smile on his face. With this right-hand man in hand, why would he not be able to lead the team to a good record?

Today's training still started with the team's warm-up and joint training. Arenas took the team's training very seriously today. Even Sanders praised Arenas, and it was like a different person after he came back.

But in Li Kaiming's heart, a bad feeling gradually enveloped his heart, and it became more and more intense...

In the subsequent video analysis and team tactical drills, Li Kaiming finally knew the source of his uneasiness.

The first is the video analysis session. When Sanders emphasized to the players as usual that if the tactics are not successful, the ball will be handed over to Li Kaiming, but Arenas on the side suddenly made a sound.

"Coach, it doesn't have to be handed over to Li!"

Sanders froze for a moment, and didn't pay much attention, so he said with a smile, "Ah, yes, now that Gilbert is back, he is also one of our options after our tactical failure."

Arenas didn't speak, but the rest of the team began to murmur. Today, Arenas seems to be a bit of a bad guy!

As for who the object of this evil is, you can think of it with your toes!

The players involuntarily turned their eyes to Li Kaiming, who was listening to the tactics on the other side, and couldn't help but sweat for the latter.

Arenas' status in this Wizards team is almost no less than Kobe's status in the Lakers. Before that, he was the well-deserved team leader and locker room leader, but now he has suffered a decline and injuries.

And Li Kaiming is the favorite of heaven, the future core of the Wizards' selection. Originally, the internal and external should be just coordinated. Wait until the end of Arenas's career, and then hand over to Li Kaiming, which has become a good talk in the NBA.

Even Arenas himself thought so before this.

The Wizards chose Li Kaiming as an inside core to assist him. After he retires, the team boss will let him take over.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Li Kaiming's strength was ridiculously strong!And even more coincidentally, at the beginning of the season, Arenas missed the game due to injury, until today.

During this period, Li Kaiming not only did not lead the team to the last place in the subdivision like Griffin, another rookie of the week, but also led the Wizards team, which was contending for the No. Strong teams such as the Magic and the mighty Eagles in the playoffs have been defeated. They have won consecutive victories and made history. In the first week, they won the Player of the Week and the Best Rookie at the same time!

How could Arenas not be terrified by such a terrifying record and statistics!

This is what is meant by the so-called meritocracy. When the team you thought selected a talented rookie to assist you, but the rookie has a worse lineup than you and has a better record than you, as long as he is a normal person, There will be no thoughts in my heart.

What's more, Arenas is the boss who speaks one word and has absolute control over the team!

So even if the injuries on his body have not fully recovered, Arenas can't sit still, and if he rests, he is afraid that the injuries on his body have not healed, but the illness in his heart will get worse!

What happened in the video session was just a small episode. After that, Arenas did not have any other performances, but Li Kaiming had a hunch that the tactical training in the afternoon would be a new flashpoint of conflict.

The time passed quickly, and the training in the afternoon was mainly divided into two parts. One was to practice the tactics prepared for tomorrow’s game against the Cavaliers. Only watching videos or tactics boards was just talking on paper. If we really want to implement the tactics into reality, we still have to rely on the court. running on.The second part is that the team is divided into two groups, group confrontation training.

Because Arenas returned from injury, Sanders placed him on the bench, and the starting lineup was still the same five-man team.

Because the substitute lineup lacked main attackers. Before that, the main attacker was Yi Jianlian, the sixth man. After Arenas came back, he naturally took over the possession of the substitute lineup and began to find his status.

The tactical drill session was no different from usual, but when it came to group confrontation, the problem immediately appeared.

Li Kaiming is still the main dominator of the ball in the starting lineup. Hinrich and his cooperation have become more and more proficient. Although Li Kaiming touches the ball a lot, he does not dribble for a long time. The point guard's Hinrich dribbles, and he does more of handling the ball after the pick-and-roll.

This fact surprised Arenas on the side. He originally thought that Li Kaiming could get such good statistics, so he should wish he could hit every ball by himself and let the point guard watch.

However, this did not allow Arenas to dispel his guard and vigilance towards Li Kaiming. Besides, he came back to the team to secure his position as the leader of the team, not to observe how Li Kaiming played.

This is a pain for the substitute players, especially Yi Jianlian. After Arenas returned, he became a tool man in the training game. He only took 2 shots in the game, and the other substitute players were not bad.

This made Li Kaiming unable to stand it any longer. He directly pointed out Arenas' wrong behavior, "Gilbert, why don't you pass the ball to the open teammate? They have a better chance!"

The entire training ground fell into silence, and everyone turned their attention to the two tall and short people in the center of the court.

Sanders is also a bit difficult to deal with. Arenas' behavior is indeed not right, but it is understandable that he wants to get back to his state. After all, the latter is currently the only All-Star player on the team.

Arenas raised his head, his eyes gradually turned cold, "Li, are you teaching me how to play? I have played in the league for nearly ten years, so I need you, a rookie, to teach me how to play?"

Li Kaiming shook his head, "Gilbert, this has nothing to do with experience, what is wrong is wrong, I believe you know better than me!"

Arenas sneered, "This is my team, I can play whatever I want!"

As soon as these words came out, the hearts of all the people present couldn't help beating violently a few times!

Is it time to come, is it finally coming?
