Thinking of playing in the summer league, Xue Ding immediately found head coach McMillan!

"Coach, I'm going to play in Summer League!"

"No, no, Xue, you don't need to play in the summer league, we didn't reserve your spot..."

"Why?"

"You're the team's backup point guard for next season, and now what I need is for you to shoot well and be fit."

"But it's a rookie from another team...."

"Xue, listen to me, we are special, it doesn't make much sense for you to play in the summer league now, I understand the feeling you want to play, but please believe me."

"I've heard about the fact that you've been training in the training gym recently, and your attitude is good, but I still remind you, don't overtrain, this summer, adjust your body, and there won't be so much rest time in the next regular season."

Now that Roy, Aldridge, and Fernandes are all recovering from injuries, McMillan is reluctant to play violently Xue Ding to fight with the summer league players who are desperate to find a job! If you want to fight, you have to fight in the regular season.

“OK！” Xue Ding hung up the phone helplessly.

However, Xue Ding was slightly better when he heard that he would enter the rotation as a backup point guard and not be able to play in the summer league.

Xue Ding wasted no time.

A new round of devil's training began, this time not in Portland, but back at the University of Washington.

This time, Xue Ding is training with Isaiah Thomas!

"Xue, you have changed too much, you are in a circle compared to half a year ago!"

"Tsk, it's so strong."

The strongest 175 looked at Xue Ding's arm with envy.

Xue Ding shrugged, he is now the big Wei Shao block....

Xue Ding was already very in control of himself, and deliberately stopped training his muscles! But these eight-pack abs can't stop themselves from running out....

"With your figure and your face, I can't think of any girl who won't like you, you train at school, and we often have more beautiful women watching football on the side of the court, which is very comfortable."

"Yo yo, and your ass, it's warped and straight...."

"Smack!"

Little Thomas is really a big mouth, chattering and pinching, grabbing and patting Xue Ding...

Xue Ding can only beat this big mouth with his fist 175!!

175 is very easy to bully, the hands are short, the head is not very bright....

On September 30, Xue Ding officially started his career at the Trailblazers after receiving a text message from the Trailblazers.

Back in the Trail Blazers' training gym.

Trail Blazers coach McMillan was very satisfied after seeing Xue Ding's size, and his muscles were not less practiced in the summer.

in the locker room.

Xue Ding saw several familiar people in the team, and they were talking.

Roy, Oden, Aldridge, Fernandez, Batum ......

Xue Ding's personality is very cheerful, and as soon as he sees these old birds, he immediately steps forward to say hello.

"HI, old birds, I'm a new rookie from the pioneers, Xue Ding, you can call me Xue."

A bunch of old birds know that they have a few rookies on their team.

But they all feel that the rookie in front of them doesn't look like a rookie, it's really TM enthusiastic!!

"HI, Xue."

"Rookie, welcome to join."

Roy, Batum, and Fernandez are all humble gentlemen, and several of them greeted Xue Ding.

The Trail Blazers' locker room is also harmonious right now, and under leader Roy, it's a positive team.

"Xue, are you used to entering the NBA? It's not like being in the Huskies, so let me know if you need help. ”

Roy is Xue Ding's senior, so it is naturally interesting to cover him!

Xue Ding said: "There is no need for the time being, you don't need to fix me when you rectify people." Ha ha! ”

The topic of conversation is how to welcome the rookie in a different way!

Rookie players who are new to the league have to run errands for the veterans, which means they have to be bullied for a while. This is the default rule of the NBA, and even the biggest names in the league today can't escape it......

Auden shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "That's not necessarily, every rookie has to go through some memories that will last a lifetime." ”

Fernandez also smiled wryly.

Looking at these two people, it seems that they have a plan to trick themselves.

Xue Ding threatened: "OK, whatever you want, I think Chinese kung fu can also make people leave some memories." ”

Xue Ding directly threatened these two people.

Roy, Oden, Fernandez and the others laughed when they heard Xue Ding's words.

This rookie is really brutal, and as soon as he enters the locker room, he threatens to beat people.

Xue Ding expressed his personality very strongly, well, very brutal.

I really don't dare to underestimate it.

Of course, all this is based on the self-confidence of strength.

If Xue Ding's strength is not as good as his personality, then he will be annoying....

After greeting all his teammates one by one in the locker room, Xue Ding had some basic understanding of everyone.

Roy, the leader of the locker room, this guy is very mature, obviously in his twenties, but he speaks and acts very calmly, which is quite convincing.

Batum is a bit of a thief, but he has a very gentle temper, Sven.

Oden, who looks like a forty-year-old uncle and beats Durant in the draft, has a child-like personality and is immature... As soon as Xue Ding came, he said that he would take him to a nightclub to take his sister.

Aldridge, this is a big honest man, loyal and honest, and he speaks with a straight eye.... It's no wonder that Popovich can easily be fooled by Popovich saying that you play power forward and don't play center.

Fernandes is an extremely mature veteran of the pitch, and seems to have been playing professionally at the age of eleven or twelve.

In short, these people have their own personalities, but they all have one thing in common.

None of them are like the big five big and three thick basketball players.

On the contrary, they are like gentle gentlemen! Rich cultural people.

When training.

McMillan asked a few newcomers to introduce themselves in front of everyone.

After that, regular recovery training begins.

Match?

No, on the first day of training, many players have not yet returned from vacation, and the competition is too difficult for them, and they have to recover step by step.

During training, McMillan was looking for newcomers to communicate and understand the situation.

By the time of Xue Ding.

McMillan said, "Xue, do you have any thoughts on tactics?" ”

Xue Ding knew that McMillan wanted to see how he was positioned.

Xue Ding was also not modest, and said, "Yes." ”

"If you're the core of the second team, how do you want to play?" McMillan asked with a smile.

'It's very simple, when I land, I hold the ball, they all pull away, I have a local advantage and I break through or finish myself. We have a lot of shooters on our team, Batum, Fernandes, Matthews all have a three-point shot, of course, in addition to the position, I think our second team in the new season will be focused on playing fast transition offense, we have a good running ability, we are fast, and I can dribble directly from the backcourt to complete a dunk, as long as my teammates can run to follow me, I will definitely pass. ”

"What do you suggest for the tactics of the main force?" McMillan nodded frequently, this Xue Ding is very confident!

"I think our first team also needs to speed up the pace of the game, last season we averaged only 96.3 points per game, which is too slow, although the defense can win the championship, but on the offensive end, as long as I score more points than the opponent, then we are the team that wins the game."

"Our offense can be concentrated under the basket or three-point shot, reduce the proportion of mid-range, the only person in the team who can allow mid-range shots can only be Aldridge, I think our three-point shots are too few, at least to increase to more than 40 times, Roy and I are very strong heads-up ability, when we don't have the opportunity to shoot three-pointers, then the two of us will go head-to-head to end the game!"

Xue Ding's answer surprised McMillan very much!

He'd never seen a rookie downplay the game, as if it was going to win, but could the game really be so easy?

McMillan actually believed Xue Ding's blindness.

This is the charm of Xue Ding.

Xue Ding is talking about the future "super rocket" mode!

The Trail Blazers have shooters such as Batum, Webster, Fernandez and others who have an okay three-point shooting percentage.

Then there are Roy and Xue Ding, who have strong heads-up ability.

There is also a former assist king Miller combing the offense, and the interior fulcrum Aldridge, which is much more reasonable than the lineup of the Rockets in the future.

As long as the Trail Blazers are healthy and everyone is comfortable, then such a Trail Blazer will start in the second round of the playoffs.
