After the game, the Raptors hurriedly washed up, packed their bags, and rushed to the next stop to challenge the New Jersey Nets.

On the bus, everyone squinted slightly, and Joey took the throne of Barnes and confided in Kyle in a rambling voice.

"Thank you! Kyle! I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. ”

"You're welcome, let's do it! It's gold that will shine sooner or later. "Kyle is depressed, if you don't sleep, I still have to sleep!

"Yes! A lot of people say that, that's why I'm doing this today, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. ”

"Man! Do you think you are golden? "Kelton is interested, and a lot of people say that? Bragging! "But as far as I know, gold is innate, and it will shine only when it has been invaded by time and honed by itself. I don't think I'm any, I'm not very talented. ”

"You're a rare diamond, I'm sure. As for me, I think I'm going to be a qualified starter, that's what Osley says about me, and I agree. ”

"Osley?" So prescient? Kyle thinks it's a talent. Joey's physical fitness is indeed perverted and tough, and he is the best rookie in the class of '05 except for Marvin Williams. Whether it's bounce or athleticism, whether it's reach or explosiveness, or strength or speed, it's all perverted. But Joey's brain is not very bright, he has convulsions from time to time, his ability to understand tactics is poor, and in a word, the ball quotient is worrisome, referred to as a brainless muscle stick. can only fight hard, and do not understand the details of skills.

"Yes! My sister! Very smart, she's now attending Harvard. ”

"Excellent!" This is a prestigious school, a prestigious school with a high IQ. This makes Kyle wonder, is it a brother and sister? Then he blurted out, "Are you brothers and sisters?" ”

"Of course! There is no doubt about it. ”

"What does she say about you?" Kyle was curious.

"I don't know how to use my athletic talents, so she asked me to practice more three-pointers, catch-and-shoot shots, and defense. But I didn't listen to her at the beginning, and I think I did a good job with the ball. ”

"And now?"

"I still feel like I can put the ball in the basket."

"And then?"

"It's gone!"

“OK！ I think your sister's advice is good. ”

"Kyle! You also think my attack ability is not good? ”

"I never doubt that you can do better, but never with the Raptors, and if you have to stick to the ball, then you're going to lose playing time. That's what I want to say. ”

"Why?"

"Do you think you can match Jalen with the ball? I need to hear the truth. ”

"He'll be a little better than me." Joey looked down and thought about it, and told the truth. "Of course! Just a little bit. ”

"He and I are on the field, he's got to move, understand?"

"He's still occasionally..."

"Alright! Joey! Let me tell you so. There's only one ball, but there's five people on the court, I'm the point guard, I'm on the court, and the ball is basically running in my hands. Then I'll distribute the ball, Chris also needs the ball, his attacking ability is there for all to see. Jalen needs the ball and he's well-rounded offensively. Jamal, as a former All-Star, will definitely be able to perform. So what can you do when you start for Morris? Ask me for balls? Buddy! ”

"You're saying Maurice is my role model?"

"Yes! Don't feel like you're a star, who entered the league wasn't the school's man of the hour, and they were admired and praised by everyone. For example, you always hear some voices, wow! Joey's talent is not much different from LeBron's, and his future is limitless, etc.! But after that, everything is different, everyone is starting from scratch, and there are very few geniuses who come to the fore. And what about the rest? They're no longer glamorous geniuses, they've put down their bodies and made changes, so they're here to stay, while others pack their bags and leave. Which one do you think you are? Kyle struggled and decided to revamp the muscle.

"I don't know!"

"People always have to accept reality, in fact, I am the same, I am also changing. Yes! I'm at the heart of the team now, but don't think I'm going to do whatever I want with 60 points, people are only impressed about me temporarily, and if one day I don't shine anymore, criticism will come and trample me to nothing, that's the reality. If the team can't go further, everybody will question me, and they'll say, look! Kyle is just a data brush. So you should find your niche and stand firm in the league, and that's what you have to do. ”

"My sister said the same to me." Joey bowed his head, being denied by his own sister, and now by his boss, which obviously made him feel frustrated.

"Your sister said the same thing?" Kyle was immediately amazed, goosebumps all over his body, too incisive! Is it really that smart?

"Yes! She did say so. ”

"It's incredible! I'm curious, she must be cute! Kyle wanted to see what this girl looked like, and he could still say it one by one.

"Yes! She is the cutest girl in the world, and she is very beautiful. Joey nodded in agreement.

"I really want to get to know her, I've always loved to be friends with smart and beautiful girls." What about the photos? You might as well flip it out and take a look.

"She told me that she wanted to know you too, that she was your fan."

"Really? Can you take a look at her picture? I didn't mean anything else, I was just curious about what kind of girl she was admitted to Harvard University. ”

Naturally, Joey took out her mobile phone, logged in to her personal social platform, and took out her sister's private photos to share. Kyle took the phone and looked at it carefully, with a high nose, a melon seed face with short hair, white teeth and charming eyes, thin and bracketed lips, and a black and yellow glow, which was not completely black. It's super bad in Black Pearl, but in Kyle's aesthetic, it's really beautiful, and it looks particularly cute.

"A beautiful woman indeed!" Actually, Joey is also quite handsome, much more handsome than him anyway, Kyle thinks so.

"Thanks for the compliment!"

"Alright! Tell me about you! So what do you think now? Is it to change the style of play and find a way to establish itself in the league, or is it to go my own way and do something that surprises me. Kyle is not interested in Osley, Harvard's name is more attractive than beauty, and after sightseeing, he naturally returns to the main topic.

"Do I have a choice? I have to stay in the league, and I'll have to pay for Oxley's tuition, Kyle! Help me! ”

"You have to help yourself, practice more three-point shots, study more switchback runs, pass back and forth. The skill and rhythm on the defensive end is all about feeling it yourself, and with your physicality, you're going to be the most promising 3-and-D player in the league, and if you think about it better, you're going to be a qualified third choice, and an All-Star won't be a problem. You are moving in this direction and will never be eliminated. The most important thing is that on the field, you have to stay focused and never get distracted. In fact, Kyle is a little envious of Joey's body, although his skills are very rough now, but if they are all developed, he has the potential to become a first-class star, but looking at his appearance, Kyle can position him as a good three-leader of a certain team at most.

"Three-point and defense?"

"Yes! Start here, and it's a lot of fun to fight against the top swing guards, as you'll find out later. ”

“OK！ I'll try. ”

Kyle is actually selfish in doing this, Jalen Rose is under contract this season, and the Raptors are basically impossible to renew his contract, he is old, slow, unstable, defensive and dragging, and he is also a possessor of the ball, it is estimated that he is self-aware. So next season, the team is short of a swingman at the back line, and Barnes has a place, an important rotation or starter? With one spot left, whether the Raptors sign or draft in free agency, Kyle must support one.

Because he is the leader and the core, it is necessary to consolidate his position, have his own subordinate gang, and have someone to respond to his words. Peterson and Bosh are relatively close, this can't be changed, Jamal and Kyle are opposite, but it is not useful at critical moments, for example, Sam roared and estimated that he would wilt, and the estimate he can command now is Barnes! If there are two main forces moving closer to him, then in the future, whether it is a game or being blown up by McCloskey, or a contest with Sam, as well as suppressing Bosh and other accidents, Kyle can advance and retreat freely.

The success of a team must be twisted into a rope, and the core leader of the team must have absolute prestige. But his teammates have their own personal thoughts and opinions, and it is impossible to expect everyone to revolve around him, a cloud-piercing arrow, and thousands of troops to meet that pure conjecture. Kyle didn't think he'd be so awesome, but unity still has to be done, and moving towards a clear goal is the bare minimum.

Therefore, it is extremely important to have your own small team! Or rather, when Kyle stands up and speaks, someone has to be on top. McCloskey put Kyle on the shelf, in addition to his own on-court performance, the most important thing is that he is not on the shelf.

The current Raptors have a good record, and it will be more and more difficult to continue to maintain it, especially if Kyle's offensive routine is figured out. When a team becomes unchangeable, the atmosphere and desire to win will be crucial factors, which is known as resilience. The atmosphere and the desire to win are rooted and cultivated from the leader. What kind of generals there are, what kind of soldiers there are, Kyle is ready to take the lead.

If you want to ask Kyle why he is so hot, it is because the negative impact of Under Armour's signing with him is still spreading, and Under Armour's performance is also declining rapidly, and he is about to die! It's all money! So Kyle not only wants to have good stats, but also to find a way to win more games, and the playoffs are the minimum requirement. (To be continued.) )
