When Xue Ding signed the contract, the system also reminded him that the task of entering the NBA had been completed!

After returning to the apartment that Tom rented for Xue Ding, Xue Ding looked at the harvest of training during this period and the rewards for completing tasks!

Current talent: Russell Westbrook (Rookie 1)

Existing Skill: Storm Buckle Tianzun (LV5).

Star points: 10 points.

More than two months after Xue Ding returned from the crossing, he insisted on training almost every day.

Diligent training has made Xue Ding's various attributes slightly improved compared to when he first crossed over.

The most obvious thing is that the talent has also changed from Turtle level 0 to Turtle level 1.

Storm Button Tianzun (LV5) is an advanced skill that rewards quest completion.

"Violent Buckle Tianzun" shows that as long as Xue Ding can stimulate the buckle, no matter how high the cap is, the inner line will be buckled......

The style of play is very brutal, but Xue Ding doesn't really want to take this kind of route of Wei Shao!

Frequent dunks are cool, but they also mean injuries, as evidenced by Wei Shao's several major injuries.

At the Trail Blazers, the most important thing is not to get hurt.

At that time, Xue Ding told the president that it was not a joke to replace the Trail Blazers team doctor.

Xue Ding knew that the "Big Three" Roy, Aldridge and Oden, who had high hopes for the Trailblazers in the previous life, were all suffering from injuries during the Trail Blazers, and Roy and Oden retired due to injuries....

The history of the pioneers in recent years can be summed up in cups.

The Trail Blazers were even worse in the year Roy's retirement, with Brandon Roy retiring and Aldridge being reimbursed for the season, interspersed with team infighting, Oden's scrapping, McMillan's departure, and the removal of two out of five starting lineups before the trade deadline.

If it weren't for the injury, they might have touched the championship!

Of course, that situation can't be entirely on the Trail Blazers' doctors, but as an important team behind the team, the Trail Blazers failed to rise to the expected heights until the depression, and the medical team is to blame!!

Therefore, Xue Ding didn't dare to be injured and couldn't take the road of Wei Shao.

Xue Ding's advantage now is that he is fast, has super ability to attack the basket, and has strong finishing ability under the basket, but he is very iron in the middle distance and three-point shots.

Xue Ding now needs to strengthen a lot of things.

First of all, in terms of projection, don't really be like Wei Shao in his previous life, hitting more than 30 percent shooting in his rookie season, and a guard who doesn't have the ability to shoot is too much of a loss.

Simmons, Rondo, etc. are Xue Ding's negative teaching materials.

................

The day after the contract was signed, the Trail Blazers officially held a press conference.

"The contract is finalized, the 4-year contract of the pioneer is finalized Xue Ding! 》

"Goodbye Chinese Figure! The hot young player confirmed to wear the Trail Blazers No. 1 jersey to log in to the NBA! 》

Roy: I know Xue, he's also from the University of Washington, and I'm looking forward to working with him in the new season. 》

"Yao Ming: Xue Ding has taken the initiative to communicate with me, his personality is very suitable for the NBA, and he will be successful. 》

On the second day of the press conference, domestic newspapers and news websites were full of news that Xue Ding won a four-year contract and officially joined the pioneers.

In the NBA, where there are fewer and fewer Chinese, Xue Ding's appearance is undoubtedly the undertaker of fans' expectations for the NBA after Yao Ming's injury.

However, Xue Ding joined a team that was hated by many Chinese fans.

Trail Blazers star Brandon Roy is the Rockets' sufferer!

Roy's most impressive game for Chinese fans, and probably his own, was undoubtedly the goal he scored in overtime on November 7, 2008.

At that time, the Rockets were visiting the Rose Garden, and at the last moment, Roy hit a step-back jumper, leaving the Rockets with 1.9 seconds, but Yao Ming's jumper also caused Roy to foul and hit a free throw, giving the Rockets a 1-point lead at 99-98 with 0.8 seconds left.

At the time when Yao Ming thought he was going to complete the first kill of his career.

But it was these 0.8 seconds that made the miracle.

Roy received the ball from beyond the three-point line and shot straight away, and the ball crossed an incredible arc and shot through the Rockets' nets like a guided missile.

After the game, everyone thought that the goal of describing Roy with "lore" had become a bit bleak, and it should be called a lore in a lore!

Years later, the ball is still considered by some experts to be one of the most difficult to replicate classic lores in league history.

So Chinese fans hate and love Roy!

And Xue Ding joined such a pioneer team.

The Trail Blazers are not a fish belly, but a strong team, a team that can impact the Western Conference on paper.

Whether a rookie's growth environment is good is the key to whether the rookies can stand out.

The outside world thinks that although Xue Ding has signed a contract, no one can guarantee how many opportunities he will have!

But Xue Ding himself has never worried about this, he is a man who is destined to become a superstar!

Who says it's bad to be a strong team? Wait for the belly to play?

There are a lot of problems that the belly teams face, first of all, their team environment is quite bad and they have lost their winning culture.

Although on the underdog team, rookie players get more opportunities. In a bad environment, rookies are also likely to lose confidence and even give up on themselves.

Xue Ding is worried about playing time? He might as well train hard to improve himself, and the opportunities are all snatched by himself.

At a time when the domestic media are hyping up Xue Ding's news.

Xue Ding has already begun to conduct special training under the arrangement of the pioneers.

In his rookie season, Xue Ding faced many challenges, and he needed to urgently improve himself in all aspects.

With talent, you have to work harder.

It's July, and for the veteran players, they're still enjoying the holidays.

But for Xue Ding, his vacation will only be spent on the basketball court.

And Tom is also actively communicating with big bosses from all walks of life in China, and many businesses in China are aiming at Xue Ding, who is more handsome than Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming!

In terms of sneaker contracts, Anta, Nike, Li-Ning, 361, Adidas and other sneaker manufacturers have contacted Tom and issued their own offers.

Because the endorsement price of sneakers is very low, Xue Ding refused.

Xue Ding's approach may lose some short-term benefits!

But Xue Ding has this self-confidence, when he wants to shine in the NBA, those sneaker manufacturers will obediently send several times the contract.

In terms of other endorsements, Xue Ding first took over a brand that does not need to shoot advertising videos for the time being.

JSB! ^_^ The condom brand happily paid $500,000 to Xue Ding.

When he signed the endorsement Guanggao contract, Xue Ding got the set that might not be used up for 5 years....

...................

Inside the training ground.

Xue Ding is focusing on strengthening his shooting training.

The muscles in his body are already developed enough, and the muscles of his body are being trained, which will affect the coordination of his body!

Through this period of training, Xue Ding has thoroughly understood how big the gap between his previous talent and his current talent is!

The present self has an infinite future!!

Because it was in the offseason, there were no other players in the training hall, and Xue Ding was enduring loneliness every day to improve himself.

Last season, the Trail Blazers' youth team had a spectacular performance, not only did they have a 54-28 record (their best record in nearly nine years), but they also returned to the playoffs after a six-year absence.

However, youth is a double-edged sword, and they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs due to their lack of experience, thus fulfilling the Rockets' wish to break the first-round curse!

This summer, in addition to the three rookies selected this year, including himself, the Trail Blazers also had a lot of personnel iterations, with Rodriguez (PG), Frye (PF), Diogo (PF), and Shawick Randolph (PF) leaving the team.

Although the Trail Blazers lost a lot of players, none of those departures had as much impact on the Trail Blazers as Miller's arrival.

According to media publicity, the former assist king will greatly relieve Roy's ball control pressure on the offensive end, making him more comfortable on the offensive end.

And the likes of Howard and Pendegraf will undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of the fourth position.

Compared to last season, the strength of the Trail Blazers has increased significantly.

As for these changes, not many people think that the addition of Xue Ding, a rookie, will bring too much improvement to the team!

In the first year, the fans' requirement for Xue Ding was to enter the rotation!

Xue Ding ignored these views and remarks.

Two months of shooting drills.

Xue Ding has mastered the skills of "Precision Shooter LV1", and his shooting percentage has improved slightly, at least much more accurate than Rookie Weishao!!

"Precision Shooter" is a total of LV1 to LV5, and the ability is approximately: after getting the ball, he can shoot in the middle and long distances, and the shooting rate will increase by 2%/4%/6%/8%/10%..., ignoring interference to a certain extent!

Don't underestimate that it is only 10% to reach the full level, 10% is the difference between ordinary players and supergiants.

It is very difficult for Xue Ding to improve one point now!!

He had to be honed through countless hours and sweat.

When Xue Ding felt that the shooting training was almost underway, Xue Ding asked to play in the summer league to further find the feeling of the game through the game!
