Chapter 320: The Sixth Man

After a training game, Li Du glanced at Old Nelson, saw Old Nelson nodded, so he reached out and shook Livingston's hand, "Sean, on behalf of the Warriors, I sincerely invite you to join!" Hopefully we can fight together! โ€

Li Du's words made Livingston burst into tears on the spot, and he excitedly stretched out his hands and shook hands with Li Du tremblingly, "Thank you, thank you!" I really don't know how to express my gratitude, Lee, I promise, I will do my best to fight for the team's victory! โ€

"It's me who should thank you!" Li Du did not have the arrogance and suspicion of other team bosses, and he gently soothed Livingston. 1357924?6810ggggggggggd Li Du knows very well that it is not easy for Livingston to join a team, and it is an honor for him to be recognized and invited by the team boss in person.

In fact, Li Du had already thought about it when he was one-on-one with Livingston just now, Livingston had suffered a major injury, resulting in a sharp decline in athleticism, his ability to attack in the face frame was already very weak, almost no one, but he used his height to organize and attack in the back body is very strong, and what is more valuable is that his mid-range shooting rate is very high, if there is no interference, it can reach more than 70%, even in the face of Li Du's interference, it can reach more than 50%!

Even if Li Du didn't defend with all his might, this hit rate was already very scary! You know, even a superstar like Kobe Bryant, the shooting percentage has never exceeded 50%, Livingston is like a jewel buried in dust in the eyes of Li Du, as long as someone wipes the dust off his body, he will shine dazzling!

After the two negotiated, Livingston's agent and Nelson Sr. walked to the office to discuss Livingston's signing of the Warriors, while Li Du and Livingston stood on the sidelines chatting. Livingston had long heard of Li Du's name, and he had also seen the video of Li Du's game, and he understood that Li Du had actually shown mercy to his subordinates in the one-on-one just now.

However, as a player who loves basketball so much, Livingston is eager to see how strong Li Du really is. When he made this request, Li Du laughed out loud and said, "No problem! Even if you don't say it, I'll show you that new people need to have faith in the team! Sean, I'm going to let you know that as long as I'm here, we won't lose! โ€

Saying to Livingston to wait a minute, Li Du walked to the sidelines and practiced a set of Xingyi boxing first, and with each punch, his whole body bones vibrated and boomed like thunder.

Although Livingston knew that Li Du was born in Chinese kung fu, and it was a unique scene in the NBA for him to practice boxing before every game, but he personally felt the scene when Li Du practiced boxing, Livingston still felt shocked, he never imagined that human beings would explode into such a terrifying sound when they were exercising.

After practicing Xingyi Quan and fully stretching his muscles, Li Du picked up a basketball on the ground, beckoned to Livingston, and said, "Sean, you are trying to defend me." โ€

Livingston heard this, walked to the center of the field, and assumed a defensive posture.

As soon as he made a defensive move, he felt a flower in front of him, Li Du was like a gust of wind blowing, so that he couldn't see the figure clearly and passed through him, and when he came back to his senses, Li Du had easily dunked the basketball into the basket.

After landing, Li Du ignored Livingston's shocked expression and said with a smile: "It seems that it was a little too sudden just now, in this way, this time you guard first, I won't move, wait for you." โ€

Livingston still didn't understand it, and when he heard Li Du say this, he nodded dumbly, came to the three-point line with Li Du, walked to Li Du's side, and began to defend Li Du.

"Are you ready?" Li Du asked with a smile.

"Hmm!" Livingston nodded heavily and said, "Ready!" โ€

As soon as Livingston's words fell, Li Du changed direction twice in a row, suddenly got rid of him, and when he was one step away from the three-point line, he raised his hand to hit a three-point shot.

Looking at Livingston's face with his mouth wide open in surprise, Li Du smiled: "Actually, this is very simple, Sean, I promise, as you join us, you will see more goals that you thought were incredible in the past!" โ€

Livingston glanced at Li Du with some dejection and asked, "Lee, through these two balls just now, I already know that no one in the league can limit you!" You're already so powerful, why do you need me? I don't think I can help much! โ€

Li Du shook his head slowly and said, "Sean, a person's strength does not mean that the team is strong, we have won the championship this season, and I hope to get more championships!" What can a person do even if he is stronger than Jordan? When Jordan didn't have Pippen by his side, he was still blocked out of the finals by the Pistons using Jordan's rule! โ€

Speaking of this, Li Du patted Livingston on the shoulder and said, "Sean, you have rare qualities, you have the skills we need, I hope that next season, you can help me control the rotation lineup!" May I? โ€

Li Du's definition of Livingston is the sixth man! The main lineup of the Warriors has Li Du himself, Yao Ming, and Curry, which is already very strong, but the Warriors' bench lineup is relatively weak, Li Du hopes that Livingston can take on the responsibility of leading the bench lineup, he has this strength!

Livingston has gone through many teams in the league, and of course he understands Li Du's words as soon as he hears them, but he really didn't expect that Li Du has such great hopes for him. You know, the team's sixth man is more important than many people in the main lineup to a large extent, he is equivalent to the boss of the team's bench lineup, and he has a high status in the team!

The Spurs' Ginobili has been in the role of sixth man, but who's to say he doesn't matter? Even at some point, Ginobili is more important than Duncan! There has been a saying among fans: "Look at Parker in good times, Duncan in bad times, and Ginobili in desperate times." From this sentence, you can understand how important Ginobili, the sixth man, is to the Spurs.

In the same way, the sixth man on other teams is also very important, which is why the Warriors didn't have exactly who to be the team's sixth man last season, no matter how difficult it was. If the sixth person is well arranged, the team's combat effectiveness can be greatly increased, but if it is not arranged well, the advantages established by the team itself will be wiped out!

While they were chatting, Nelson Sr. also came out, and the team had negotiated with Livingston's agent to sign a two-year, $4 million contract, and then renew it after two years. This is a conservative approach for many teams, after all, it is not worth paying too much for a player like Livingston who doesn't know how much of a role he has in the team.

Livingston was after signing the contract, Li Du nodded at him and said, "Sean, I will definitely let you find your own sky in the Warriors!" โ€
