Between July and September, for two months, the Chinese men's basketball team has been training with the Pirates.

They are also mainly learning from the NBA's front-line training experience, which is extremely valuable, especially the personal training experience of these top NBA players.

Liu Wei, the main controller of the men's basketball team, was extremely surprised to find that Chris Paul, a rookie who had just joined the Pirates this year, was not his opponent at all when he faced him alone......

Strength, speed, and explosiveness were crushed by Chris Paul across the board.

Thinking that this is just Paul in the new melon egg period, if Paul grows to the peak, this gap is estimated to be so big that it is desperate.

Paul is in some ways similar to his predecessor, Stockton.

Both of them have harmless faces, but they are quite ruthless and have great defensive moves.

In addition, the seemingly thin body hides an incomparably huge amount of power.

Needless to say, Stockton's bench press stats are quite horrific.

And Chris Paul, his strength is actually the top existence in the group of point guards, that is, he is not as talented as De Chubby and bearded Davis.

Of course, the biggest thing these two have in common is that both of them have the best passing and control ability in history.

……

Although the Chinese men's basketball team won the gold medal in the Athens Olympics, this does not mean that the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team is really the best in the world.

The reason why the men's basketball team won the championship is because of good luck and strong enough inside......

It doesn't have much to do with the outside line, if you really want to rely on the outside line to win the championship, it's better to wash and sleep.

This is also why Richard values Sun Yue so much.

Such a good seedling on the outside is too scarce in the Chinese basketball world.

……

After two months of training, Richard got a lot of unexpected surprises.

First of all, there is the point of Milicic.

Richard didn't care too much about Milicic's organizational ability before, but since Paul came, Milicic has shown quite good passing ability in his internal and external partners with Paul.

It's normal to think about it, the European insiders seem to be born with their own organizational skills, and there are countless European insiders that can be used as examples in this regard.

Prior to this, Richard had not coached an interior player with good organizational skills like Milicic, to be precise, there was no such player in the core interior line that he coached.

For example, the Auburn combination, these two have little organizational skills.

For example, the same is true of the Yao Ke combination of the Pistons later......

Now that Milicic has suddenly shown such a hand, Richard feels that it is necessary to study some special tactics specifically for Milicic and Paul's partner.

However, there are ready-made tactics that can be used, that is, the tactical system of the later Grizzlies Marc Gasol and Conley.

The Grizzlies at this point in time, known as the Undead Grizzlies, have quite amazing tolerance, even against the strongest teams in the league, they have the strength to fight.

And now the lineup that Richard has assembled is definitely much better than the lineup of the undead Grizzlies.

Even in '07, Richard was able to easily get Marc Gasol in his hands......

You must know that Marc Gasol's draft pick is not as high as Sun Yue, such a cost-effective big man inside, if Richard lets it go, it will really be a tyrannical thing.

"Wait and talk to the coaching staff in a few days."

"There is still feasibility, but it depends on the actual combat effect." Richard thought silently.

……

When the time enters September, the Chinese men's basketball team returns to China to prepare for the next games, and the Pirates are also preparing to face the upcoming new season.

Richard is certainly expecting this new season.

And the only thing that a head coach at Richard's level can live up to the word expectation is the championship.

However, with the current lineup of new melons and eggs, Richard is actually not very sure.

When he first entered the league, it took Richard two years to win the championship when the Trail Blazers had a good foundation.

As for the Pistons being able to win the championship in just one year, Richard smashed it at an extremely high cost.

How many things Yao Ming smashed on his body, Richard himself couldn't remember clearly......

If the Pistons didn't have Yao Ming, it was estimated that they might not be able to win the championship in two years.

Yao Ming, who has just entered the league, actually has the level of the league's supergiant before Richard's various props are smashed, and with him, the supergiant, plus Nash, a veteran, and other strong newcomers, this can directly win the championship.

And now the Pirate team doesn't have this kind of hardware, not to mention anything else, first of all, there is no supergiant level character in the team......

If he smashed the famous points, Richard would be able to greatly improve Milicic's strength, but Richard was reluctant.

The price is just too great......

……

"Let's see if we can make it to the finals today, and if we do, we will find a way to win this year's championship."

"If you don't make it to the finals, then you have to stay up for another year, anyway, the players are very young and can afford it."

"At the beginning of the season, you have to fight hard to get the All-Star team."

"After All-Star Weekend, it's a great way to relax and prepare for the playoffs."

Richard already had his goals in mind for this season.

Because he now has three sons, Richard is also under pressure.

Putting together the supergiant suit as quickly as possible right now is what Richard wants to do the most.

There are already four pieces of the Super Giant Set, and there are still five left to make it up.

Fortunately, the league has restructured the All-Star, otherwise, Richard estimates that it will take nearly ten years to get his hands on the remaining five supergiant suits.

And now that the system has been restructured, Richard feels that it will definitely not take ten years, maybe seven years to get the remaining five pieces together.

When this giant set is ready, a new set mission may be released.

At that time, Richard's son was only seven years old, and there were still 12 years before he entered the NBA at the age of 19!

In the past twelve years, Richard may be able to get another suit......

In this way, the problem of the three sons is basically solved, and if they want to enter the NBA in the future, Richard can give them the best starting point and win at the starting line.

Of course, if there were a few more sons, then Richard would be completely gone......

……

In the blink of an eye, it's the end of September, and there are two days left before the start of the pre-season.

As is customary, the team has to hold a press conference to spread some information to the fans through the mouth of the media.

For example, what are the team's goals for this year?

For example, what changes will the team have this year......

Originally, Richard was going to go, but Jordan stopped him and asked him to watch the children at home, and he wanted to go out alone about the press conference.

Richard is naturally happy, seeing that the new season is about to start, and it will definitely be quite busy in the future.

It's not bad to spend the last few days with your wife and children.

As for why Jordan wanted to go to the press conference alone, Richard didn't bother to think about it, anyway, Jordan is unlikely to do anything to hurt the interests of the team.
