Chapter 414: Team Strength Prediction for the New Season
After having a meal at Yao Ming's house, Yi Jianlian went back to Milwaukee.
It's August 15, and there is only one month left before the closed training camp of the new season, and it's time for Yi Jianlian to go back for the second round of special training.
Speaking of which, because the season ended too late this year, Yi Jianlian did not dare to train like the previous two off-seasons in order to give his body enough rest, but it has been half a month since he returned to Huaxia, except for the daily touch of the ball to maintain the sense of the ball, the amount of training is not large, which makes Yi Jianlian feel that his body is very uncomfortable, and always sounds the voice of "hurry up and ravage me".
Yi Jianlian knew that his body was almost rested!
***
Back in Milwaukee, Yi Jianlian received a courier, this courier had already arrived, and the others had been in the country before, so no one claimed it, and it had been placed at the courier's side.
Yi Jianlian opened it directly, it was a signed photo sent to him by Allen, which made him glad that he didn't go home to open it, otherwise he would have to run again, he directly repackaged the signed photo and sent it back to China by courier.
At the same time, he sent another message to Liu Yifei and asked her to pay attention to it.
After that, Yi Jianlian put all his mind into training.
At present, the entire data of Yi Jianlian is:
Upper limb strength: 85;
Lower Extremity Strength: 82;
Shooting ability: 89;
Hook Ability: 80;
Three-point shooting ability: 88;
Shooting ability after turning: 85;
Tactical Skills: 89;
Inside Footsteps: 81;
Dribbling ability: 85;
Passing ability: 82;
Fitness: 84;
……
The overall data is currently close to the top level of the league, and most of the abilities have exceeded the top of the league, which is also in line with Yi Jianlian's current position in the league.
In the next period of time, Yi Jianlian will continue to focus on physical fitness and three-point shooting, especially physical fitness, and he will be close to the top level of the league, which is close to the physical fitness value of LeBron James, LeBron's physical fitness value is 89, and when the time comes, he will have more confidence to come to Lu Bu to fight Sanying.
However, what Yi Jianlian didn't expect was that even though he spent all his time on physical fitness, he still failed to increase his physical fitness from 84 to 85, which was much more difficult than he imagined, and his three-point shooting ability also stayed at 88, and a lot of training did not turn 88 into 89.
However, the strength of the lower limbs has increased a little while exercising physical fitness, reaching 83 points, which is still 2 points short of the top level in the league.

On September 15, the Bucks' closed training camp opened, and the Bucks' lineup has not changed much this year, the only thing that has been released is Danny Green, who did nothing last season except for the pick-and-roll that surprised everyone, and it has no impact on the entire team's tactics at all.
Therefore, Xiao K's arrangement in this training camp is very relaxed, in addition to solving the problems of the players, the focus is on the three newcomers: Matt Barnes, Whiteside and Jeremy Lin.
Yi Jianlian continued to use this time for physical fitness and shooting training, but unfortunately, there was still no change in the value.
The amount of training required to improve these two items was somewhat unexpected by Yi Jianlian.

At the same time as the teams started their training camps, ESPN gave a prediction of the strength rankings of each team for the new season.
The first place is naturally the biggest winner this summer, the Heat team that gathered the "Big Three", although many people are not satisfied with the huddle of these three giants, but only say that the team's strength on paper, a top three in the league, a top four in the league, and a top fifteen in the league, such a configuration is incomparable to any team.
"I really can't imagine that such a team will lose for anything in the regular season, LeBron plays Dwyane, Dwyanne plays Chris, they just need to take turns to score, and there will be no suspense in the game, maybe the Bucks should be nervous, they just broke the all-time best regular season record last year, and I'm afraid it's going to change hands this year!"
In second place is the Bucks.
"As the defending champions, they surprised last season's finals, all right! Now it's a bit disrespectful to say surprise to them, they defeated the Lakers with amazing strength, especially Yi Jianlian, with him, the Bucks always look so strong, but this is also the reason why they will be in second place, this team ensures that their championship lineup remains the same, but they only have Yi, which is the only shortcoming of this team! ”
The Lakers are in third place, and they haven't changed much this summer, and like the Bucks, they have opted for some minor tinkering, and their overall strength has not changed from last season, so they can only finish behind the Bucks.
Next are the Spurs, Celtics and other teams, all of which were originally strong teams last season, and there is no big change, but the Thunder team, whose ranking has changed a lot from last season, is ranked eighth in the league this time.
"We should have something to expect from this team, just like the surprise they brought last season, after the playoffs, they are obviously more mature, they were too young, and now, they are no longer bothered by this problem, the Thunder may have the best season since the name change, better than last season!"
The rest are more teams that have been questioned by ESPN.
For example, the New York Knicks, who got Amare Stade Meyer, are already very far behind, only in 22nd place.
"Maybe this is the birth of another garbage contract, who knows! But it doesn't make a difference, anyway, the New York Knicks are very good at giving sky-high junk contracts, which is why they have been fish for so many years! ”
Almost all experts are not optimistic about Xiao Si, not to question his strength, but because he does not have Nash by his side, no one knows what kind of performance he can play, after all, in the eyes of most fans, Xiao Si is strong because Nash is behind him.
The Nuggets are also questioned, finishing in 19th place, nearly 10 spots worse than last season.
"The core players no longer trust the management, and the management didn't solve the problem cleanly, they tried to de-escalate, which is ridiculous because no mirror can be broken and stick back to the way it was!"
There is also the Rockets, who are ranked 21st on the list, and Yao Ming's return has not changed their opinion of the Rockets in any way.
"I never question Yao Ming in the 08~09 season, because we all see his strength, but this is already the 10~11 season, and we don't know if the little giant can regain his dominance in the league that is quietly changing."
The worst is naturally the Cavaliers, who are ranked 30th without LeBron James without hesitation.
"Cleveland lost one of the champions, but that's okay, they're about to have another champion! Good luck, Cleveland! ”
