I met the Spurs, a legend who has been known for a long time.

Deng Hongfei had a feeling in his heart that his dream was shining into reality.

It turned out that this was the NBA, and there was a chance to play with them that they could only be seen on TV and video.

It's amazing, it's like a dream.

Fight with your teammates one by one

French duo Tony Parker and Burrece Dior.

Spurs' two sharpshooters, Danny Green and Belinelli.

Too many names that make him familiar.

And, of course, summer league teammates, Nando De Colo, Corey Joseph, Aaron Baines.

When Baines arrived, he seemed to be very surprised, he pointed to Deng Hongfei's sweaty clothes and was stunned for a long time, "Have you been training here all this time?" ”

Deng Hongfei smiled, "How can I keep up with your progress if I don't practice." ”

"My God, you still need to keep up with the progress, don't worry, brother, the regular season begins, there must be a place for you in the rotation lineup, Coach Greg is a coach who likes to give newcomers a chance, seize the opportunity and perform well."

"But I'll give you a shot, the intensity of the regular season isn't comparable to that of summer league."

"Hmm." Deng Hongfei still bowed his head.

"Okay, I'll go and put the salute away first, and I'll practice with you later."

——

As Popovich's coaching staff appeared on the pitch, the players in the locker room came out one after another.

Deng Hongfei wore a scarf around his neck and joined the Spurs team.

Popovich stood in front of all the team members, grinning a little wickedly.

The blazing eyes swept around everyone, and their faces changed suddenly, suddenly serious.

"Players, the new season has begun, today, settle what should be settled, put things in order, evening, team routine, campfire party."

"Meet new friends who have joined us this season and remember old friends who have left the team for various reasons."

"All in all, no one can be absent."

"You have to come, and those who don't come won't have playing time next season."

Old man Bobo squeezed his eyebrows and waved his hand at the end, "Okay, I don't have so much nonsense, why do you want to go." ”

In terms of face changing, Deng Hongfei has never seen anyone more comfortable than Popovich.

"Hello, should I call you Chris Deng? Or Deng Hang Gray? ”

Suddenly, a slightly playful and slightly serious magnetic male voice came from the side.

Looking back, I saw that it was Tim Duncan.

The latter led a group of Spurs players, many of whom had already greeted Deng before, such as Manu Ginobili, but some who had not yet known him.

For example, Couwai Leonard.

This new star player of the Spurs is known for his taciturn and dislike of smiling, and his calm eyes seem to be clear, but if you look closely, you can clearly read a little depression in them.

It seems a little cold and unique in the crowd, standing quietly at the edge alone.

He stared a little blankly ahead, and he didn't know if he didn't feel that there was a point worth focusing on, or if he had something in his head.

"Deng, what I want to tell you is that we are a big family, you don't have to have any constraints, tonight, let's indulge in a party and fully release the nerves of joy and excitement for the new season."

Duncan stretched out his big thick hands and smiled friendlyly.

Although he didn't quite understand what the Spurs carnival project was, Deng Hongfei could feel this strong team culture, so he readily agreed.

Night falls.

On the wide open-air lawn of a clubhouse.

The Spurs will be here under the leadership of Greg Popovich.

The aim is to have a special team outdoor party.

The theme is teamwork and trust.

All are required to participate in 4 mini-games.

The high platform falls after being unprotected, the five-person tangram, the beach-grabbing landing, and the island survival.

An unprotected fall on a high platform means standing on a 2-meter high platform and falling backwards without any protection, fully trusting that all your teammates below will be able to catch you.

The five-person tangram is a puzzle piece that 5 people randomly select a jigsaw puzzle piece and quickly run and pose the corresponding figure according to the instructions of the coaching staff.

It can fully test each player's sense of position and the tacit understanding of running between each other, and whether they can judge what position they should appear in at the first time.

Landing on the beach and surviving on the island are more competitive.

In the former, a team of five or six people and another team of the same number rowed the kayak at the same time and reached the designated finish line first.

As for the river, which is next to the lawn, it meanders and reflects the sparkling waves under the shadow of the falling moonlight.

The water vapor spreads, and the fragrance of green grass and new soil brushes people's cheeks.

The competition venue for island survival is also in this river, everyone starts from the starting point, freely chooses the best way, and the first to land on the "small island" floating not far in front is the winner.

The number of landing spots decreases as the tournament progresses, and the only winner is determined.

Each of the best performers in the mini-game has a chance to get a meal cooked by Popovich himself.

And those who are all have to eat a boring nutritious meal and watch the lucky ones feast on it......

The old man was already sitting by the campfire, spinning the crossbar grip in his hand with relish, and looking at the players not far away with interest.

The new season is coming, and everyone has yet to adjust to their offseason form.

At the same time, some new faces have joined.

Through these targeted mini-games, the crowd can quickly adjust the pace and stimulate the competitive state in their bones.

The most important thing is to allow new players to integrate into the group quickly.

It can be said that it is deliberate and well-designed.

This is also a traditional project for the Spurs, and it has been a must-have every year since Mr. Bobo joined the company, and it has never been interrupted.

Deng Hongfei stood on the 2-meter-high platform, and fell backwards without thinking, without a little fear in his heart.

He fully believed that the strange teammates below would never look at himself in front of such a vigorous and fresh life falling to death like this.

This kind of mentality is like a particularly boring, heartless person entering a haunted house.

Indifferent to the hideous and palpitating "evil ghosts", because in his heart, he has already labeled the other party as "human", knowing that these people will definitely not hurt him.

So from beginning to end, I was like a wandering spectator, strolling through and enjoying the carefully arranged horror scenes, without substitution, no feeling, and even a little like laughing......

Coincidentally, Deng Hongfei is such a boring guy who is a little uninteresting.

So he was a little speechless when he saw those who were trembling and hesitating to fall.

This is a little bit of height, and it doesn't make him free fall on the Leaning Tower of Pisa......

Duncan stood beside him and suddenly laughed, "Deng, I found out that you have our Spurs traits. ”

"What?"

Deng Hongfei turned his head a little curious.

Duncan laughed twice and pointed to Couwai Leonard, who was also neatly descending on the high platform, "You and this guy, like me, have a natural calmness and calmness. ”

"Fear doesn't seem to exist for us."

"That's right."

He suddenly changed his words, "Are you averse to the media?" ”

"Aha?" Deng Hongfei suddenly couldn't keep up with Duncan's rhythm.

The latter repeated, "I mean, you don't resent the journalists." ”

"Oh."

The corners of Deng Hongfei's mouth rose slightly, and he threw an interested look at him, "I should ...... Not too cold. ”

"That's right!"

Duncan grinned and laughed heartily when he heard this, and at the same time a large hand slapped him the shoulder, his eyes full of approval.
