"Huh!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

The crisp sound of a basketball passing through a net bag at the New Orleans training ground was like the sound of water droplets falling onto a coin.

Wang Jing's blue training uniform was soaked with sweat, and he jumped high outside the three-point line, holding the ball with his left hand and holding the ball with his right hand, three ninety degrees in place, and threw the basketball out with the most standard shooting posture!

"Huh!"

There was another crisp sound of entering the net.

"Alright, alright, alright!"

Zhaoqiang, who was sitting on the sidelines, also had a sweat on his face, and the back of his training uniform was also soaked with sweat, Zhaoqiang threw a bottle of Gatorade to Wang Jing who came over, and said, "Damn, I see that you cast it very easily, why can't I throw it in?" ”

Wang Jing unscrewed the cap of the bottle, tilted his head, drank half a bottle, sweat dripped down Wang Jing's handsome face and hair, Wang Jing finished drinking and said, "Appearance problem." ”

"Get out."

Zhaoqiang's face was depressed.

Yesterday the Hornets were defeated by the Clippers 88:109, although Paul scored 30 points and 6 assists on 10-of-15 shooting, but he alone could not save the team.

Zhao Qiang couldn't defend himself on the defensive end of the smart Aminu, and frequently let him play a pass and cut to cooperate, this campaign Aminu scored 19 points and 8 rebounds on 7 of 9 shots, on the offensive end, Zhao Qiang's performance outside the three-point line was 10 shots 0 of 10, and only 1 of 14 shots in the whole game scored a pitiful 2 points and 3 rebounds, Zhao Qiang usually doesn't play much, only because of the opponent's instigation and sarcasm that Zhao Qiang completely lost his mind in the game, all in all, Zhao Qiang is a character player.

"I'm wondering, haven't you played CUBA before, why are the basic offensive skills so poor, don't you usually train?"

Wang Jing sat next to Zhaoqiang, pulled the knee pad on his left knee to his ankle, and then kneaded his left knee, in which, nearly half of Wang Jing's torn and inflamed meniscus was surgically removed, but depending on the situation, Wang Jing recovered well.

Injuries to this part of the meniscus can be called a nightmare for professional basketball players, especially those forward players who often make large changes or rely on the body's ability to run and jump, if there is an injury in this part, it will greatly reduce the player's athletic ability and shorten his career, the NBA has many examples of this, such as the champion Greg Oden in 2007, Oden in his healthy period has amazing dominance under the basket, although he is the champion, But his career (Auden is not fully retired, but it is estimated that it is about the same. His stats are 9 points and 8 rebounds per game, and Oden is rarely listed when talking about the best champion in history, because Oden was really good when he was healthy, but everything was ruined on Oden's meniscus, and his knee went through 5 major surgeries, and it didn't heal in the end.

Brandon Roy, the No. 6 rookie in 2006, is another superstar who was ruined by the meniscus (or by the Portland Veterinarians), the first four years, Roy was the absolute boss of the Trail Blazers, a superstar who can be compared to Kobe, and has the nickname "Yellow Mamba", but that all changed in 2010, Roy found out that both knees had problems with the meniscus, after surgery, the strong Roy came back early and competed in the Trail Blazers playoffs, But the early comeback was also painful, with the meniscus in both of Roy's knees worn out, and in just one season, Roy went from being a superstar in the league to becoming synonymous with "The Glass Man," with a series of major injuries, consecutive surgeries, consecutive season reimbursements, and finally having to retire at the age of 27, usually a player in his prime.

Derrick Rose, the NBA champion in 2008, the youngest regular season MVP in history, Rose's knee problem is not only a meniscus problem, but also an anterior cruciate ligament injury, his tragedy will not be repeated, and people who usually pay a little attention to the NBA know that compared to them, Dwyane Wade is in a much better situation.

Wade's left knee meniscus has been completely removed before entering the league, but he is still vigorous, leading the team to win the championship, I can't see anything when I was young, and after Wade is 30 years old, this was originally the peak age of NBA players, Wade's physical fitness has begun to decline significantly, and knee problems continue to occur, Wade is only 32 years old this year, but he is protected by the Heat like a 38-year-old Kobe, which is embarrassing.

Zhaoqiang pinched the empty bottle in his hand, and with all his might, he pinched the bottle into a twist, Zhaoqiang said, "Damn, when I used to play in China, I rarely practiced shooting, and shooting was not my task, I like to block the opponent's star players the most," Zhaoqiang pinched his hand into the air, as if pinching someone's neck, and said, "Blocking them is like choking their necks, making them unable to breathe, and bowing down to me." ”

Wang Jing kneaded his knees, which were still a little sore, and turned his head, still giving Zhaoqiang a big smile.

"You mean as long as you're on the field, your team is four or five? How is this possible to win? ”

"Why can't you win, offense wins tickets, defense wins championships, don't you know this sentence."

Wang Jing lowered his head and shook his head with a wry smile.

"Basketball, simply put, is a game where you put a basketball in the hoop, and you don't have any offensive means at all, which is probably ......"

"If I can't get in, then my opponent can't get in, isn't it simple?"

"Okay, I won't move you," Wang Jing drank the remaining half bottle of drink, gently put the bottle next to him, then stood up, slowly approached the court, picked up the basketball, and threw it at the basket!

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Zhaoqiang walked over with a basketball.

"What are you doing, teach me? ……”

Suddenly, a hurried figure walked by the side of the court, it was Manson, the chief trainer and video editor of the team in a suit and leather shoes, when Zhaoqiang Bai Xiaofei did not get the contract of the Hornets, it was always Manson who took three people to train, Zhaoqiang called Manson, "Hello, Manson, the footsteps are in such a hurry, where is this going?" ”

Manson raised his eyes, with a nervous look, approached Zhaoqiang's side, and said, "Boy, train hard, I might as well reveal a message to you, there is a big deal to happen recently." ”

"Big deal?"

Zhao Qiang and Wang Jing said in unison.

"Be quiet," Manson said with his finger to his lips as he said, "You have to promise me that you can't tell anyone else to keep the atmosphere on the team." ”

"What's the big deal? Let's reveal some more information. Zhaoqiang put his arm around Manson and said, "Tell me, I swear to the lamp and will definitely not tell anyone else." ”

Manson shook his head and said, "You can't say it yet, you'll know when the time comes." ”

Zhao Qiang and Wang Jing glanced at each other, Wang Jing tilted his head, Zhao Qiang understood, he lowered his head, and said to Manson, "How big is the big deal you are referring to?" Also, is it involved in our team? ”

"It's got to be our team, or I'm so concerned about what to do," Manson said with a frowning look and an uncomfortable look, "What's the deal?" All I can tell you now is that this deal will involve at least one starter from the current team, and maybe a couple of substitutes, mega, train well, look at your game yesterday, you're playing like a piece of shit, that's how I usually teach you to play, if you're playing a second game like this, I'm going to trade you. ”

Zhao Qiang's face was red and his ears were red.

Zhaoqiang suddenly thought that the NBA trade deadline will be five days away, the so-called trade deadline refers to the Thursday of the 16th week after the start of the NBA, before this date, the NBA's 30 teams can trade players at will, but after this date, all teams can no longer have transactions, the team can only be strengthened by signing free agents, etc., or laying off players, and the way to sign is a base salary clause, a middle class clause, a 10-day short contract, etc., And on this day, the league began to calculate the total salary of each team, and those with more money obediently paid the luxury tax, and the money handed over was distributed to the team that did not exceed the tax according to a certain percentage.

That's business alliances.

Zhao Qiang glanced at Manson and said, "It's better not to say it, isn't this deliberately hooking us, the deal involves a starter, who is it?" ”

Manson shook his head, it seemed that he didn't plan to say it, but Zhaoqiang was thinking in his heart, "Okafor is injured, injured players can't be included in the trade list, Paul is the team's trump card, it is impossible to be traded, and the only ones left are Iverson, Ariza and West, who will leave?" ”

"Alright, don't think about it," Manson said, "You might as well practice shooting if you have time to think about this, your shooting yesterday was so bad!" ”

"How many times have you repeated, don't you bother," Zhaoqiang brushed aside Manson, picked up the basketball, and shot from beyond the three-point line in exchange for a deserved hit.

"You can't shoot like this," Manson said to Wang Jing, "Wang, teach him to shoot, his shooting is really bad." ”

"I don't need to shoot, I just need to block the opponent's scoring points, and that's all I'm aiming for when I'm standing on the floor of the basketball court!"

Zhao Qiang said confidently, but Manson shook his head and said, "Zhao, your thinking is very incorrect, you have to understand that in the NBA, even if you are a defensive monster in the near future, you have a certain offensive ability, such as Mutombo, his big hook on the left side of the waist can be called a nirvana, and for example, Ben Wallace, at his peak, Ben also has an accurate mid-range shot, I know you want to be a forward player with excellent defensive ability, but excellent means not just doing things well on the defensive end, On the offensive end as well, you have to give in, and your template is to be a great 3-and-D player, which is to add three points defensively, just like your teacher Bruce Bowen once did, you know? ”

Zhao Qiang nodded as if he didn't understand.

"Then let's start shooting drills." Zhao Qiang lifted the basketball and threw it to the basket.

"Huh!"
