The superSonics' preseason was not all smooth sailing, and the lack of understanding between the players made them often miss out on good games in the game. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

For example, grabbing rebounds, Chamberlain, who thought that he was not dominant, was in the position, but he didn't expect that Mourning would also be in the position. When Chamberlain grabbed the rebound again, he habitually sought a fast break, causing passing and receiving errors and so on.

But that's it, the supersonic's powerful offensive capability has been affirmed by all the media, and they have changed their previous pessimistic statements and are unanimously optimistic that they will make a difference this year.

Chamberlain, who was introduced this season, was called by the media as "the introduction that changed the entire team"! ranked third on the trade list after O'Neal and Maddy.

Take a look at Chamberlain's stats in the preseason: 19 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists against the Lakers, 23 points and 11 rebounds for the first career double-double against the Trail Blazers, although the SuperSonics lost! 21 points and 10 rebounds against the Suns, the same as Small! 17 points and 14 rebounds against the Jazz, and against his old club Spurs, Mourning's help allowed Chamberlain to grab 17 rebounds on Nesterovich's head......

Throughout the month of October, until the end of the away team against the Trail Blazers, McMillan would make some adjustments at the end of each game of the SuperSonics, but mistakes were inevitable!

"Alonzo, I feel like we have to talk!"

Because the preseason was all over and the SuperSonics gave the players a day off, Chamberlain took Rina to congratulate Mourning, who was moving his family to Seattle, on the housewarming!

"I know what you want to say, but I've always wanted to say these things. ”

Mourning took a bite of the apple and continued: "Although they all call you 'the successor of the big dream' and the 'continuation of the glory of the center', I have to say Zhang, you are not a qualified star now, no, do you know why?"

What Mourning said above is what the recent headline party in the United States pressed on Chamberlain, and others such as "the biggest mistake in draft history", "the skinny version of Bill Wharton who erased injuries", etc.!

In this era, the center is too rare!

"Yes, I still need to work on it, I understand that, I don't take the words of the media to heart. ”

Fresh from Olajuwon's studies, Oxlade-Chamberlain is well aware of the gap between himself and the orthodox players.

"You don't understand what I mean, Zhang, you fully deserve those titles. Defense, offense, technique, like they say, there's a lot of potential in your substandard body. But I'm not talking about the body, it's your state of mind. Why do you keep giving me rebounds? Why?"

"Because sometimes you're more suited to Alonzo, basketball is a five-player sport. ”

Chamberlain was about to continue, but was interrupted by Morning!

"Forget it, man, are you teaching a player half your age how to play?

Mo Ning stopped Chamberlain, who was about to defend himself: "I know you Zhang, but please listen to me, you only need to answer my questions!"

"Okay Alonzo, I'll listen. ”

Looking at the serious Monin, Chamberlain nodded in agreement.

"It's not like you can't beat Randolph and Stendudemire, it's because I have a better chance of winning, right? ”

When Mo Ning spoke, he had already put the apple on the table!

"Teammates, friends, partners!"

Chamberlain replied without thinking, because in his heart he thought so.

"Yes, but you don't have one less friend to say! That's the helper, I'm your helper!"

Mourning motioned to Chamberlain to stop: "That's the mentality I want to say, you didn't think of yourself as a superstar who could despise everything in the first place, you put yourself in the position of an ordinary player. What is talent, what is potential? It's a kind of capital that you can ask the whole team to work for you, and you don't have to work with anybody. It's your right, it's your obligation, it's what the fans, the coaches, the management want to see, and when you don't do it, you're wrong, you're failing their hopes!"

After listening to Mo Ning's words, Chamberlain was shocked, what Mo Ning said was something that Chamberlain had never been exposed to, or never taught, he had always been burdened with the identity of a dragon set, he had never thought that basketball should be played like this, and he had never been educated.

It's a basketball philosophy of genius he's never been exposed to!

Looking at Chamberlain's incredible eyes, Mourning did not stop his preaching: "I said that I am your helper, not to slander you for recommending me to SuperSonic, nor because of you and I to come to SuperSonic, because everyone thinks so, the media, teammates, fans, coaches, everyone, including myself." The time that belongs to me has passed!"

No one likes to grow old, but sometimes they have to admit it, because it is already a fact!

"You'll be better, Alonzo. ”

Seeing that Mo Ning was a little pathetic, Chamberlain couldn't help but comfort!

"Haha, I knew you would comfort me, you are always so soft-hearted, you must be saying to me in your heart now: 'I will help you, Alonzo!'"

Chamberlain's words made Mo Ning laugh heartily: "You are wrong Zhang, I am not a person who cares about other people's opinions, and I don't care what others say." But I can't fool myself my friends, I can't get back to my best state. I don't lack any honors, just a championship ring. And you have the talent at the heart of the team, a veteran like me, if you want to have your place in the team, you have to have that mentality, our biggest role is not the data, but the help of the core players!"

"Don't think that you don't have an advantage, just give up fighting for my position, you have to believe that you are the best one. Don't always think about your teammates and cooperation, you have to have the determination to beat everyone and carry the team forward. Also, remember that I'm your helper!"

Monin's last words pointed to his chest.

"Thank you, Alonzo, I think..... I know how to do it!"

can feel the sincerity and firmness revealed by Morning's words, because Chamberlain, who suddenly opened up at this moment, can only express his gratitude!

"If you don't do it, no matter what you think, it's just an excuse for your own escape. Don't waste your talent! This is a friend's advice, an experience that has been expected from the moment you entered the league!"
