On November 5, 1993, a month before the start of the NBA regular season on November 5, almost all the teams in the NBA gathered again in the last day or two to train for the new NBA season.

And early in the morning of such a day, in the locker room of the Utah Jazz training gym, at this time all the players of the Utah Jazz team with contracts have been gathered here, even some injured team previous season's main small forward David Benott has come here, the team's main player last season may not be able to play for a period of time at the beginning of this season, the 1991 rookie is also one of Lin Han's main competitors.

Of course, Lin Han regarded the team's main small forward last season as an opponent, but this same young player did not regard Lin Han as a competitor, the young player who just signed a 3-year 3oo contract with the team after the end of his rookie contract this year is already looking forward to his future, because the team is willing to give him a contract with a million annual salary will naturally not keep him in the team to play as a substitute, but really hope that he can shoulder the position of the team's main small forward in the future.

In this case, even if Lin Han, a 'very famous' player in the United States, competes with him, he doesn't have too many ideas, after all, didn't most of the media say that this kid is a rookie who has pitted the Jazz, his opinion is the same as these media, Lin Han will not pose any threat to him, after all, when all Jazz players were looking for trouble with Lin Han some time ago, he did not participate, and he really didn't know much about Lin Han.

Now there is still a period of time before the team goes to the training ground in the morning, these players of the Jazz team are talking and laughing with each other in twos and threes, most of the players here are actually teammates from last season, the Jazz have not made too many big moves this summer, so the Jazz locker room is also extremely stable now, and the team's two leading players, Stockton and Malone, do not have too many contradictions, in this case, the team naturally cannot have a lot of uncontrollable things, but extremely harmonious.

It's just that the current harmony within the team has brought a lot of pressure to several new players in the team, at least, at this time, Lin Han is a little uncomfortable sitting at the counter on the side, although he knows most of the players here, and has 'played', but in addition, there is really not much intersection.

And if Lin Han looks at the veterans of the Jazz team who are talking and laughing at each other at this time, then the other two rookies next to Lin Han are even more cramped, for example, Lin Han can obviously feel that his friend Aaron Williams is almost trembling at this time and constantly stepping on the floor rhythmically, and the other rookie player, small forward Brian Russell, this young player is also a rookie this year, but he did not enter the team in the draft, He was unsuccessful this year, but because his strength was very good during the Jazz tryout, he was valued by the sharp-eyed Jerry Sloan, so Jerry Sloan gave him a 4-year 12o contract, which is better than Aaron Williams, the selected rookie, for 2 years and 6o million, which can also be seen that the rookie is indeed powerful.

Although the relationship between Lin Han and Brian Russell is not very good, it is impossible to compare with Aaron Williams, but the two are relatively close, but the two have been training together for three months in the summer, and this summer, Lin Han's main opponent in the confrontation game is him, this guy's strength is also very surprising to Lin Han, at least in terms of defense, this guy puts pressure on Lin Han much stronger than Alan Houston, the strongest opponent Lin Han has encountered so far, this is a very solid and strong player, Although he doesn't show too much talent on the offensive end, Lin Han absolutely believes that this solid defensive player definitely has his place in the Jazz, and may become one of the players who will compete for a place in the game.

Of course, if it is just his own competitor, in addition to Russell, who is a rookie like himself, the two most important are naturally the team's scoring guard and the team's three leaders, Jeff Malone, for such an opponent, Lin Han knows that if he can't show his strong talent and ability at the beginning, it will be difficult to snatch the position from his hands at the beginning, after all, this is a former All-Star player, although according to Jerry Sloan's calculations, Lin Han will replace him sooner or later, After all, Jeff Malone is not young, but it still takes time, and Lin Han doesn't want to wait that long, so after coming to the team, Lin Han has never thought about having to grab a position with Jeff Malone, this veteran's position is too stable, and what Lin Han wants to compete for is the remaining small forward position left because of the injury of the team's small forward Ben Notte.

However, for a team like the Jazz that is aiming for a championship, competition is everywhere, and Lin Han is very witty to stare at the remaining small forward position that will produce competition, and what about the others? Last season's high-priced guard Jane Humphries, this guy was a disastrous player in last season's table, not only lost his position, but also was questioned, and this season is preparing to rise and regain it, and the team's most important guard swingman rotation player last season, Tyrone Corbin, is also sharpening his knives, this guy can still contribute about 12 points per game for a long time last season, shooting more than 5o%, which is very good.

Of course, in addition to these, there is also Walter Bond, a 24-year-old young guard who got from the Mavericks this season, who averaged 8 points per game in his rookie season with the Mavericks.

So, whether it's Jeff Malone or Bennott or Jane Humphries, Brian Lycell, Tyrone Corbin and Walter Bond, although these guys have an All-Star level, a quasi-All-Star level or a level or even a rookie, none of these guys is a fuel-efficient lamp, and it has never been a simple thing for Lin Han to stand out from the competition with these people, after all, how can it not be tragic for 7 people to compete for two positions.

Of course, at this time, Lin Han was deliberately ignoring these rookies because the veterans of the team deliberately ignored them and ignored them, which made him fall into the team's future intra-team competition.

At this time, the two leaders of the team who have been paying attention to Lin Han, the three rookies, are extremely surprised at this time.

Today's team gathered on the first day, they deliberately created this kind of xenophobic atmosphere in the locker room, naturally it is impossible to play casually, the NBA has an unwritten rule that rookies, no matter how big they are, must obey the arrangement of the team's old players and stunned management, this kind of seniority ranking in the NBA is very strict, like the NBA All-Star Game every year, which is the most seniority ranking place, Jordan God was rough in the All-Star Game and did not give Isaiah Thomas Baipier, the big man in the East that year, In the end, Isaiah Thomas taught Jordan to be a man in minutes, united all the Eastern All-Stars to reject him, and the contradiction between the two deepened, and finally Jordan, who became the big leader of the league last year, directly refused Isaiah Thomas to join the team when the Dream Team was selected, but let Stockton, who was not very qualified, replace him, and finally let the top three point guards in NBA history be absent from the Dream Team, which also caused a huge controversy last year.

"It seems that this kid is really calm, our Jazz are really going to rise this season"

Ma Long, the postman who has been skimming Lin Han with his spare eyes, looked at Lin Han with a calm face and said with some emotion, last year's Jazz round was under great pressure, which made the Jazz want to rise quickly, whether it is management or players, especially after seeing Jordan complete three consecutive championships, both Malone and Stockton are always thinking about going to the finals to beat Jordan.

And this year's Jazz can be regarded as full of talents, both inside and outside, especially this year's latest young rookie Lin Han, not only Sloan has great expectations for Lin Han, but also Malone and Stockton, this guy has suffered a big loss even former All-Star players like Jeff Malone when playing one-on-one games, such a player has no ability, these two are afraid that he has a bad personality, and now it seems that Lin Han has not many problems in terms of personality, which makes the test arranged by these two team leaders receive good results.

"I hope so, but this kid's style of play still makes me feel a little mysterious"

At this time, Stockton is not as optimistic as Malone, and the team's new No. 8 player may bring a lot of unstable things to the Jazz, who has always been stable.

As for whether this instability is a good or a bad thing, Stockton can't be sure.

Steel, steel, steel
