Thunder's training gym.

There are 10 rookies who came to the Thunder for a tryout today, hoping to get a chance to enter the NBA.

Now in the 5v5 game, the coaching staff and management are watching the rookies play off the court.

On the court, the Thunder have five players under contract. Lee Forest, Westbrook, Collisson, Kostic, Levelle.

The rookies who came to try out only knew 2 of them, one was Griffin and the other was Harden.

At this time, the game was very fierce.

Lee Forest has continuously educated rookie Harden in the low post.

Respectively, he blew him up with a back, a mid-range, and a turnaround breakthrough.

"James, are you defending with a beard?"

"James, the eyes are defensive!!"

"James, you shouldn't have the same name as LeBron."

While blowing up Harden, Li Forest is still spewing trash talk in his mouth, educating future MVPs.

Blowing up the rookie Deng, this is a very rewarding thing.

James Harden, the top star of Arizona University, is in college this year, and in his sophomore season, Harden averaged 20.1 points, 5.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game while shooting 50 percent from the field.

Although they were eliminated in the second round in March Madness this year, it was due to the overall lack of strength, and Harden had no problem with his personal ability.

Many media outlets have a high opinion of him, and they all think that he can make the top six in the draft.

Harden doesn't have the best body at the shooting guard position, standing 1.96 meters tall and weighing 100 kilograms, and his speed, bounce and explosiveness are all in the upper average.

Harden was an excellent shooter in college, a scorer that no one could guard in college, with height, a variety of shooting styles, and a knack for scoring against physical matches.

Just now, Harden was eaten three times in a row by Li Forest.

Although he was also angry with Li Linlin, he didn't have any way to attack Li Linlin, and his defense could only be regarded as constantly tickling Li Linlin.

Although Harden's ability is no worse than that of ordinary professional players, there is still a gap between him and Li Forest, who has practiced in the professional arena for a year.

In terms of talent, the gap between Li Forest and Harden is not big, but in terms of game experience and playing skills, Li Forest has the advantage.

Harden couldn't figure out why Mr. 70, the NBA's Rookie of the Year last season, had such a trash-talk mouth, which was a bit hard for him to accept.

Harden didn't have many opportunities to try out because he had been sick for a while.

The Thunder are the third team Harden tried out, and before coming to the Thunder, Harden had already gone to the Kings and Grizzlies for tryouts.

The trial in the Kings is good, but the King's signing is not as good as the Thunder, in the Grizzlies tryout, Harden's performance is not ideal, although the Grizzlies management said that the trial will not affect their draft decision too much, but Harden has felt that the Grizzlies are obviously more satisfied with Tabit who went to the tryout.

And the Clippers, who have the worst record, almost got Griffin in the bag, so there are not many options left for Harden to be the team at the top of the list, and the Thunder are undoubtedly a very important team among them.

It's a bit bad on the field right now.

Lee Forest has already hit Harden 3 balls on the offensive end, and Harden's weaknesses on the defensive end are fully displayed in front of the Thunder coaching staff, and Harden has to find a way to turn the situation around as soon as possible and add points to himself.

So although Li Linlin's trash talk is excessive, rookie Deng didn't dare to reply, he also knew that the core of the team also had a great influence on draft suggestions, and he could only respond to Li Linlin through performance.

"Li, isn't it okay for you to hit a rookie's self-confidence like this?"

The Divine Turtle jogged over and said to Li Linlin.

"Russell, our No. 3 pick only has this option, Griffin can't fall to the third pick, I can't look down on the others, you can rest assured, this guy is not so easy to beat."

Li Linlin looked at Harden, who was slowly advancing over, and he observed the other rookies, but he was not impressed.

"Well, I'll see later."

Westbrook didn't have much eye on people, he still felt that most people were about the same, and after Li Linlin's reminder, he felt that it seemed that this bearded man showed a slightly stronger ability than others, although he was beaten by Li Linlin.

Off the court, Coach Brooks held the physical test reports of a group of players and happened to see Harden here.

Harden's body side stats are pretty awesome

Barefoot height: 195cm

Shoes: 199cm

WEIGHT: 100KG.

Arm Span: 210cm Standing Touch Height: 263cm Fat Content: 10.1%

Vertical bounce: 78cm

Maximum bounce: 91cm

Bench press: 17 reps

Straight run: 11.10 seconds

3/4 course sprint: 3.13 seconds

84KG bench press 17 times, this column is particularly conspicuous.

"Huh"

Brooks also saw Harden's bench press and was a little surprised.

If you don't understand what this concept is, it's clear if you compare it.

Wade and Rose's 84KG bench press 9 times, Griffin 22 times, which means that Harden's strength is closer to that of a talented interior player, and the big ass gives him a lot of motivation.

Strength means confrontation, this is a defender with full potential, this physical test data Brooks was also surprised to watch, he already vaguely felt that the bearded man's talent was definitely not too bad.

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

"Lee, even though you were the best rookie last season, I'm not to mess with either."

After Harden said cruel words to Li Linlin, he gestured and signaled his teammates to pull away, and he wanted to slap Li Forest alone.

Rookie Deng's teammates reluctantly pulled away.

The rookies who come to the trial all come with the opportunity to be selected by the Thunder, and whoever has more opportunities to perform will naturally have a greater probability of being selected.

Harden played singles, obviously robbing them of their opportunity, naturally many people were not convinced, but they saw Li Forest clapping their hands, it seemed that they were very interested, and they had to cooperate.

Harden saw that his teammates had spread out in all directions, so he immediately began to adjust the rhythm of the dribble, constantly changing hands left and right, and observing Lee's position.

Li Forest has not changed with his rhythm change, Li Forest is now A-level talent, invincible in the same level, and now he can use 100% "suffocation defense".

At this time, Li Forest's hand did not rush to break the ball, everyone knows that Harden's ability to make fouls is very strong, Li Forest has long been guarded, if he is beaten a three-point foul, it will be embarrassing.

Li Forest's position defense made Harden very depressed, he couldn't find a gap, Harden was ready to use his strong body to open the way, Li Forest looked very thin and weak, and he shouldn't be able to carry himself.

Harden barely picked up speed, ready to lean on Lee Forest to break to the right.

"Smack."

Lee relied on his defensive experience and did not hesitate to slap the ball in Harden's hand with a clean cut.

Attack on the spot.

Throw the ball captain directly to the turtle in the front court.

I don't know how many times the two played this kind of fast break last season, and all the teams had a lot of headaches.

The turtle played 1 to 0 in the frontcourt, and quickly completed a split buckle, which made the rookies out of reach.

"Brooks, Lee and Russell are getting stronger again!"

Prestie, who also saw this fast break on the sidelines, said.

"Hmmm! Yes, after the All-Star break, the progress of the three of them can be described as godfast, and with Jeff's injury slowly recovering, this season, they will surprise all the teams in the West! ”

"Well, I trust the three of them, by the way, Sergi Ibaka's buyout in Spain is almost complete, and we will be a lot stronger on the inside this season!! I've done my best, and it's up to them to see where they can take the thunder. ”

"Hmm."

Brooks' glasses looked deeply at Lee Forest and Westbrook.

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

"Hey, James, you're not very good at protecting the ball, is that the level? It's just that in this case, Thunder won't choose you! ”

Griffin, who was passing by, heard Lee Forest's sarcasm about Harden. He was immediately glad that he was an inside line and didn't have to deal with Li Linlin.

The star who crushes the strength of the opponent and then doesn't spare people is really annoying, but you can't do anything about him.

Griffin looked at Harden with his beard with sympathetic eyes.

Other rookies also looked at Harden as a joke when they heard Li Linlin's words, Harden's success just now made many people unhappy, and fellow competitors were very happy to see him be taught a lesson.

After Harden heard Li Forest's words, he didn't show great impatience, he was still very calm, and his beard helped him cover most of his expressions well.

Li Forest looked at Harden's calm appearance, and he also had a bottom in his heart, no player who can grow to the level of MVP is good at stubble, even if he is a rookie, it is difficult to break him mentally.

This kind of player can only beat him when he is slacking off, and if you want him to admit defeat, it is definitely not a few singles and some trash talk.
