Lu Feiyun dribbled the ball unhurriedly and steadily brought the ball across the front court, his expression was very calm, without the slightest nervousness of the first training.

McMillan's eyes were fixed on Lu Fei.

He had a conversation with Brent Barry after deciding to let Lu Fei play as a starting playmaking defender, and he hoped that Brent Barry would contribute to the team from the bench, and he eventually convinced Brent Barry, but Barry demanded that Lu Fei could prove that he had the quality to play as a starter.

Equally frustrated is Radmanovic, who overlaps when he and Lewis are on the field at the same time, and Dio's excellent performances in the summer league have many fans calling for Dio to be the starter, and Dio's passing and covering ability can make Ray Allen's projection easier.

Thankfully, McMillan put him in the starting line-up, as you can see from this training match within the team.

Although Radmanovic was originally a substitute, having him play as a rookie and Rashad Lewis as a bench are two different things entirely.

At this time, he thought that he could teach Dio a good lesson in training.

The players of the team are in a delicate relationship with each other.

Lu Fei made gestures to direct his teammates to run, not at all afraid because he was a newcomer.

Although he is still in control of the basketball, but his mind is already thinking and analyzing quickly, he is now playing playmaking guard, so he must know some about the players on the court, fortunately, he has known these players before, and Joe Smith also helped him collect information about his teammates a few days ago.

No. 13, Memet Oku, 24 years old, 211 cm tall, position as center/power forward, characterized: accurate three-point shooting, strong body, fierce defense.

No. 9, Rashad Lewis, 24 years old, 208 cm tall, position as a power forward, characterized by: accurate three-point shooting in the bottom corner, low post ability on the left side, but defensive ...... Well, sloppy.

No. 77, Vladimir Radmanovic, 23 years old, 208 cm tall, position as small forward/power forward, characteristics: excellent three-pointers, can open up space, average defense.

No. 34, Ray Allen, 28 years old, 195 cm tall, position is a shooting guard, characteristics: excellent three-point shooting ability, strong close defense ability, wide vision, excellent off-ball ability.

Ray Allen has proven over the years that he is one of the league's best shooting guards.

Lu Fei controlled the basketball and was not in a hurry to hand over the ball to Ray Allen, this was his first game to the team, and what McMillan wanted to watch off the court was not Ray Allen playing, but how Lu Fei controlled the ball.

Lu Fei also has a headache, this lineup looks very bluffing, but in fact, in Lu Fei's opinion, it is not even as balanced as the substitute lineup.

Especially on the defensive end, the forward combination of Lewis and Radmanovic is simply spicy.

I hope this season there will not be a situation where the starters play like a piece of and the substitutes play super gods.

Brent Barry took a step back and lowered his center of gravity, his height is taller than Lu Fei, if he sticks too tightly, it is easy to be passed by Lu Fei in one step, let go of a certain distance Even if Lu Fei shoots, with his height of 201 cm and excellent bounce, he will definitely be able to interfere with Lu Fei.

As he thought, Lu Fei did not shoot, but chose to break through, the speed was very fast, but as soon as he saw Lu Fei start to make movements, he found that the person was almost in front of him, fortunately, he stood up in advance and hurriedly squeezed Lu Fei with his body, preventing Lu Fei from inserting into the basket from the front.

Lu Fei changed direction and cut in from a forty-five degree angle, Brent Barry deliberately let go of a step, he knew that Evans and Collison on the inside were defensive giants, and he would not let Lu Fei shoot in front of them.

Lu Fei was also very aware of this, looking at Evans, who had already moved his center of gravity to this side, he did not slow down in the slightest.

It's a good game for him to give the manager and his team-mates enough confidence to be the foundation for him to be in the team.

Reggie Evans looked at Lu Fei who rushed towards him in surprise, although he had watched Lu Fei's game, but it was only an NCAA game, and the intensity of the NBA was completely incomparable, and Evans was a real NBA center, even if it was just a training game, it would not let Lu Fei go to the basket as soon as he came up.

Lu Fei faced Reggie Evans' defense and directly changed direction in front of his body.

Brent Barry behind him hurriedly went to pick up the ball.

Who knew that Lu Fei just dangled a shot, and at the moment when Reggie Evans moved his center of gravity, he turned with the ball with his left hand and turned between Reggie Evans and Brent Barry.

McMillan, who was observing from the sidelines, frowned: Lu Fei's breakthrough was beautiful, but there was no space after turning in, could he still score?

Lu Fei immediately gave him the answer - he didn't want to fight by himself at all.

I saw that after he turned in, he directly passed the ball to Oku who was standing in the elbow area on the other side, before Reggie Evans came to make up for the defense, he had no passing route, and after turning and cutting in, Oku was in front of his eyes.

Oku doesn't hesitate to shoot after receiving the ball, which is his favorite shooting rhythm.

Swish!

Basketball goes to the net.

"Beautiful!" Ray Allen shouted from the sidelines.

McMillan's heart that had been tense finally let go, Lu Fei's breakthrough was good, and he didn't play alone, and the pass was also very good.

Although he had watched Lu Fei's videos countless times before, when Lu Fei played in front of him, he still couldn't help but make an evaluation.

Lu Fei calmly returned to his own half, and turned to look at Brent Barry, who was getting closer and closer with the ball. Brent Barry's expression did not fluctuate, but he knew in his heart that Lu Fei's pass just now could not be passed by himself.

But he doesn't want to lose to a rookie, even if that rookie is a top performer.

He first shook the ball continuously, and kept adding small broken steps to his feet, Lu Fei didn't eat his set, just stared at the basketball in his hand.

Brent Barry cut a step, Lu Fei hurriedly moved sideways, but was blocked by Collison, Brent Barry found an open position, and raised his hand to make three points.

There was nothing wrong with the shot, because Lewis, who was defending Collisson, had no intention of pounce at all, but just waved his hand symbolically.

However, in McMillan's opinion, there is a better option for this ball, which is to pass to Collison, who is already stuck in position.

A real playmaker should be like Lu Fei.

Lu Fei is not without offensive ability, but he will control the entire offensive rhythm, through blocking, attacking the penalty area, compressing the inside line, attracting defenses, and distributing limited ball possession to every endpoint on the court.

That's the real playmaker.

But there is one thing that McMillan knows in his heart that as long as Lu Fei is still an organizational defender, the boss of this team cannot be him.

Although every championship team still needs to have a playmaker who can connect the entire team, because it is more important to give full play to the offensive desire of all teammates than to organize the guard to play alone.

But!

But!

A traditional playmaking defender with a high floor and a low ceiling!

Without multiple superstars to coordinate the entire offense, it would be very awkward to be the playmaker the boss of the team!

The other party will even half-empty the No. 1 position in order to suppress his team organization rate, completely blocking the conduction. Forcing you to play a playmaking defender as an offensive finisher. Super low efficiency!

And now this supersonic team, because of the existence of Ray Allen, does not need Lu Fei's offensive ability.

What Lu Fei wants to do is to be a real organizational defender.

That's all.
