Chapter 026: Durant likes it too

"Mr. Presti." In the Thunder's training gym, Durant has just finished a set of three-point shooting practice.

"Kevin, you've been in pretty good shape lately, but I think you can shoot more, and your hit rate is so high, why aren't you selfish?" Presti asked curiously.

"I prefer team basketball." Durant thought about it, if Russell could get unlimited shots, he would be very happy, right?

Durant and Westbrook have a very strong relationship (don't doubt, which couple wasn't like glue before they broke up, and which couple didn't love each other after they broke up?). And even at times, Westbrook relied heavily on Durant, both on and off the court.

Ever since Durant promised to help Wei Shao brush up a few more assists, Wei Shao has been happy like a child.

"Mr. Presti, you've been browsing Lin's news lately, are we going to choose him?" Durant is so confident about his future that he cares about which teammates he will compete for a championship with after the pendulum is over.

"Yes, I like this big Chinese guy very much, have you ever been to see him fight? How does it feel? Presti sat directly on the floor of the training gym, curious to see what Durant would give Lin Yi a rating.

"I can't say for sure, seriously, Blake Griffin is better when it comes to physical talent, and Russell likes Blake a lot." After Durant finished speaking, he thought again, "But Lin is really peculiar. ”

"Oh? Listen, Kevin, speak your mind. Presti looked at Durant curiously.

"He's quick, he's not like a seven-foot man at all, he's got a very smooth shot and he's shooting very standard. He's very imaginative on the dribble, and really, I've never seen a player who is taller than me and still dribble so well, and the most important thing is his speed, he took the risk of Blake Griffin once in that game, and I think if I had to choose, I would like to play with him because he doesn't rely on the ball and he can play pick-and-roll. Kevin Durant said.

Presti was surprised that Durant's evaluation of Lin Yi was so high, in fact, Presti had already obtained the video of all the games in Lin Yi's recent stage.

After watching all the footage, Presti hinted at Thunder head coach Brooks, signaling that he could let the youngsters play.

Brooks knew what Presti meant, which meant to make him lose a few more games.

Although he was reluctant to lose at the beginning of his coaching career, Brooks knew that the Thunder were about to make a big move again.

I just don't know who the discerning Presti has taken a fancy to this time?

"Kevin, I'll tell you the truth, if I can get the top pick, I will choose Lin instead of Blake." Presti said to Durant.

"Because in my eyes, Lin and you are both future fighters, you know what I mean, Blake has a great talent, and I believe that he will also become an All-Star, and I can't believe the scouts out there right now, their evaluation of this rookie is so bad."

"Lin is a good fit for this Thunder! It's for you! Presti said.

Future Soldier ......

Durant knew what Presti meant.

Durant and Westbrook will also play some pick-and-rolls against each other this season, and the results are pretty good.

But what if it is replaced by Lin Yi and Durant blocking?

Durant holds the ball, after Lin Yi and Durant block and dismantle and change positions, Lin Yi is a huge dislocation in the face of the opponent's small forward, and Durant faces the opponent's center, his height does not suffer, and his speed and breakthrough with the ball are advantages no matter how you look at it.

Lin Yi can also hold the ball, and Durant can also go to block and pick him up.

Presti's point is simple, and that is that the combination of the two of you will be very incomprehensible.

And this team also has Westbrook, whose breakthrough and fighting spirit can perfectly increase the intensity of this team. If his small and big skills can be improved, then what about the mutual blocking between him and Lin Yi, him and Durant?

Westbrook was an excellent defender in college, and if he can develop a big-picture view, the Thunder could dominate the league.

Presti has even planned the Thunder's development for the next few years, and he can use the maximum salary extension to sign Durant, Westbrook and Linyi, and the rest of the championship puzzle can be made up of his annual draft and some cheap veterans!

"Actually, I like him too, I like the Davidson Wildcats' pass-and-cut play, including Stephen Curry." Durant said to Presti.

Presti smiled, now waiting for the scouts in front of him to bring him good news, there is still half a year, it is unknown what kind of progress Lin Yi will make.

Lin Yike didn't know that Presti's attention to him was not as simple as paying attention.

At this time, he was working with Curry on special training.

Lin Yi's special training direction is mainly for defense and misplaced one-on-one.

Stephen Curry's special training direction is mainly small and big.

The future Stephen Curry is known as a big textbook in the NBA.

McLopp knew that the more the two men got along, the farther Davidson Wildcat would be able to go.

"I'm sure you've both read the news lately, first of all, congratulations to you all for entering the lotto." McLop was very emotional, the little Davidson Wildcat actually wanted to play two lotto shows in a row?

That's a big deal.

Although from the perspective of the school, McLop really hopes that Curry and Lin Yi will play for another year, but the draft will change a lot every year, so McLopp also hopes that these two will roll as far as they can after entering the NBA, and the further they roll, the better.

Lin Yi and Curry respect McLopp very much, and in Lin Yi's eyes, there are really too many excellent coaches in American universities.

They have influenced generations of NBA stars.

Don't think that the NBA coach is the best, many American basketball fans think that college basketball coaches are the best, because college basketball without utilitarianism is the purest.

"But I still want to warn you, don't be complacent, I'm not asking you to be humble, but you must understand that if we don't make it to March Madness, your current order will likely be replaced by those who are behind you." McLop didn't want his disciples to be distracted.

On this point, Lin Yi and Curry have the same opinion as Lao Shuai.

Last year the Wildcats were in the quarterfinals, and this year they have to go one step further.

Champions are the only pursuit!

At Christmas, the Wildcats had their last practice session, and when the team regrouped, it was time to sprint towards March Madness.
