"Hey! Tiger, is Sydney fun? Billups received the ball after Tiger's shot, dribbled a few times, and threw the ball out.
"Your question is idiotic, do you think he's the kind of guy who would go shopping? You should ask, Hi! How was Tiger having his holiday? Jermaine O'Neal also walked over, stood under the basket, waited for the rebound, heard Billups' question, and said directly.
"Alright! You're right this time, I just asked the wrong question, how was your holiday? This time, Billups also realized that he seemed to have asked the wrong question, and instead of going toe-to-toe with Jermaine O'Neal, he accepted the suggestion.
"It's not bad, at least I can see some of the Olympic competitions live, like diving." Tiger is used to this mode of getting along and doesn't care.
"Oh! Diving, Tiger you learned badly, and you started to like to watch bikini beauties. Jermaine O'Neal immediately screamed, causing the other players to laugh as well.
"Stupid, have you ever seen a diving competition? Besides, I'm watching the men's 10-meter platform, there are no bikini beauties, next time I'll take you to the 10-meter platform, feel what it means to be afraid. Hum! During the Olympic Games, Tiger went to see the final of the 10-meter platform and saw the style of Tian Liang, the prince of diving, when he was young.
"What's so nice about the man, what's wrong with the 10-meter platform? Is it high? If you want to see it, you have to watch the women's game. ok? "Jermaine O'Neal really doesn't understand what diving is.
Tiger was speechless and gave Jermaine O'Neal a roll of his eyes. "Man, remember what you say now, tomorrow you go with me to a swimming pool with a diving platform, if you don't dare to jump off the 10-meter platform, invite the whole team to a French dinner, if you jump, I will invite the whole team to a Chinese dinner."
"Oh! Oh! I'm going too, haha! Jermaine, you're going to die this time, you calculate your own height, 10 meters is almost 5 of you stacked together, I bet you don't dare to jump. Ha ha! There's a French dinner tomorrow, and let's thank Jermaine for his generosity. Billups laughed exaggeratedly.
Jermaine O'Neal also reacted a little at this time, looked up and looked up, 10 meters seemed quite high, but everyone didn't give him a chance to regret it, and they all shouted. When Bilfitch arrives at the arena, he hears the wolf howls of the players. "Hey! It's good to be young! Seeing that you guys are so passionate, I decided to practice against each other in the half today, and now I'm ready to start, Dennis, you pick people first. ”
At the beginning of this season, Rodman, who was a year older, trained less with the team, but led a team with Bill Fitch for confrontation training, in the helpless protests of the players, the team was soon completed, Rodman who picked people first, the first to choose Tiger, and Bill Fitch immediately selected Billups, and finally the Rodman team was formed: Tiger, Jason, Wang Zhizhi, Bruce Bowen, Michael Reed, Wright, Bill Fitch team: Billups, Jermaine O'Neal, Stephen Jackson, Ginobili, Skinner, Rajabel.
At the beginning of the game between the two sides, the Rodman team's starters: center Jason Green, power forward Wang Zhizhi, small forward Bruce Bowen, scoring guard Tiger Washington, point guard Michael Reed, Bill Fitch's team starters: center Jermaine O'Neal, big forward Skinner, small forward Stephen Jackson, scoring guard Ginobili, point guard Chancey Billups, Jermaine O'Neal, who has always been good at jumping ball, lost to Jason in the jump ball, and the Rodman team took the lead in gaining the right to attack, this kind of practice game has been carried out several times in the past few days, Jermaine O'Neal also has a new understanding of Jason Green through this kind of group training game, Jason Green he met in high school, so he is no stranger at all, but this time he saw Jason Green again, he found that Jason Green was stronger, the previous Jason Green was more dependent on the body to play, and now Jason Green not only has increased in physique and strength, but also has a more solid and practical pace under the basket, if the previous Jason Green is gorgeous, then the current Jason Green is more simple and practical.
Jermaine O'Neal was surprised by Jason Green's changes at the same time, Jason Green also admired Jermaine O'Neal very much, only Jason himself knows, how brutal he has been trained to reach his current strength, Eva holds a whip behind him every day, spurs him on, and repeats boring basic training every day, especially strength training, which is Eva's specialty, and he pushes his bench press to 200 kg little by little in training, and eats nutritious meals for a long time, has made his muscles and strength reach a very high level, and Rodman used his spare time to guide him under the basket, Duncan is often on the sidelines to help him grow when he is recuperating from injury, he has figured out some of his basket steps in college, and then the Nuggets were all thrown away by him, this time through the help of Rodman and Duncan, he finally perfected the original pace little by little, forming his own unique basket weapon, these days and Jermaine O'Neal confrontation, Jermaine O'Neal's basketball strength is no worse than Jason's, which surprises Jason and makes him more focused.
Bill Fitch, who was on the sidelines, watched the confrontation between Jason Green and Jermaine O'Neal, nodding from time to time, after the team gathered, he arranged a large number of team training games, just to make the players more familiar with each other, there is a good saying: the person who knows you best is often your opponent. The Clippers have not changed their lineup this season, and there is no problem with the team's skills and tactics and the tacit understanding between the players, saving other teams the time to run in the lineup.
And the most gratifying thing for Bill Fitch is the performance of Clippers manager Andy, Andy really did what he promised, not interfering in any team games and training at all, this situation is difficult to see in the NBA, the NBA is a commercial league, full of a large number of player transactions every year, Andy has become the most alternative team manager in the league.
