After the amateur boxing match, Mr. Chi packed his bags and headed to Piscataway, New Jersey, 40 miles from New York, where the Rutgers Athletic Center is located.

Bordered by New York to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Delaware to the south, and Pennsylvania to the west, New Jersey is the fourth smallest and most densely populated state in the United States.

Although the Nets are not in New York City, because it is not far from New York, the population density is still far higher than that of ordinary cities, and as long as the team has a good record, the ball market is not a problem.

As soon as possible, Chi Liang took Duffy to the Rutgers Athletic Center to report, and General Manager Ed Stefansky personally met with him.

Soon, the two went straight to the point, and Stefansky began to arrange for a physical trainer to test Ji Liang's physical fitness.

At the time of the test, Stefansky stood not far away, quietly watching.

It didn't take long for Chi Liang's data collection to be completed.

Player: Chi Liang

Height: 2.06 (barefoot)

Reach: 216

Weight: 112 kg

Maximum bench press: 160 kg

Speed: 11.46 seconds for the baseline switchback, 3.29 seconds for the 3/4 half-time sprint

Bounce: 75 cm for bouncing on the spot, 89 cm for running

"Hey, he's improved again!" Stefansky looked at the data table in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

He also has another data sheet in his hand, which is Ji Liang's physical data when he tested with the Nuggets last year.

Compared with last year, Chi Liang has improved in all aspects, especially his strength, except for a few people such as O'Neal, the rest of the center forwards must be able to resist.

"General Manager Ed, I wonder which coach will be in charge this season?" After the test, Chi Liang barely breathed, and this kind of strength test was very easy for him.

"At our solemn invitation, Doug Reeves finally chose us! This is mainly thanks to you, your attraction is too great, how can the magic team with a lack of soldiers and major generals compare with you! ”

In fact, for Doug Reeves, a rookie coach, Stefansky is also worried about him, for fear that he will drag down the team.

But he had no choice, there was really no good candidate, he could only pick up the tallest among the short, and finally chose Doug Reaves, who was recommended by Chi Liang.

After talking for a while, seeing that Stefansky still had something to do, Chi Liang offered his farewell.

Under the arrangement of the staff, Chi Liang came to a villa, and in order to increase Chi Liang's sense of belonging, the Nets specially rented this villa and became Chi Liang's residence.

It's not far from the Rutgers Athletic Center, and best of all, the Nets have paid the rent.

After entering the villa, Chi Liang took a look at it, this villa has a total of two floors, about four or five hundred square meters.

In addition, there is a standard indoor basketball court, as well as a lot of professional equipment, which is enough to maintain Chi Liang's usual training.

"It's a bit big! Bill, pick a room too! Chi Liang sighed, in his opinion, this villa is a bit of a waste.

"Okay!" Duffy naturally didn't refuse, but he is an agent, so I'm afraid he won't stay here for long.

"I have to find a servant to do it, and take care of Nana by the way!"

Chi Liang muttered to himself, then opened the cat bag and released Nana, regardless of whether Nana understood it or not, he said to it: "This is our new home!"

Meow~

Nana raised her head, looked around, and then crouched beside Ji Liang.

Soon, Ji Liang chose a room, his room was located on the second floor, and it was also the largest bedroom.

After cleaning the room, Ji Liang returned to the Rutgers Athletic Center to wait for the press conference in the evening.

On the evening of August 9, the Nets held a press conference specifically for Chi Liang.

In addition to him, there is also Darrell Armstrong, who came ahead of schedule, he was born as a non-draft player, played the sixth man in the Magic last season, averaging 13.8 points, 6.7 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 2.2 steals per game, and was also the second choice for the best sixth man last year, but unfortunately he was crushed by Ji Liang.

However, to be able to achieve such results as a non-draft player, I have to say that Armstrong is amazing.

Like Chi Liang, Armstrong is also wearing a formal suit, he is 31 years old this year, belongs to the NBA old fritters, and immediately expressed his welcome after meeting Chi Liang.

"Oh, Chi Liang, when I heard that you were coming to the Nets, I was so excited that I could hardly sleep, with you joining, we will definitely be able to achieve good results!"

Armstrong knows very well that with Ji Liang's achievements last season, he is definitely the core of the Nets' rebuild, and it is natural to have a good relationship.

"Darrell, it's a pleasure to meet you, we need to communicate more when we have time!" Ji Liang naturally chose to respond, holding Armstrong's outstretched right hand.

For Armstrong, Chi Liang is also very interested, not to mention Armstrong's strength, which can indeed help him.

When they spoke, the press conference was already crowded with reporters, maybe the amateur boxing match had just ended, or maybe it was Chi Liang's strong appeal, there were many reporters present, I am afraid that there were as many as two or three hundred people, and the Nets team had not had such a grand occasion for a long time.

Over the years, due to the team's poor results, the Knicks next door have an attractive record, and it can be said that they have been completely suppressed by the other party.

Due to the limited number of seats, most of the reporters could only stand, but they still enjoyed it and frantically wanted to interview Chi Liang.

Compared with Armstrong, Ji Liang's popularity is significantly higher, and he can only act as a foil.

"Even though we lost two stars, the addition of Ji Liang has made us stronger, Ji Liang is definitely a talented player, he played at the level of a superstar in his rookie season, I am very happy to have Ji Liang in the team, and I am also full of confidence in the future of the Nets!"

The first to speak was Nets general manager Ed Stefansky, who paused and continued: "Of course, the players we traded for will also greatly improve the team, such as Armstrong, Billups and Williams, who were well known last season. Plus, there's rookie Corey Margeti, who I'm sure will be an important part of the team in the future! ”

After Stefansky finished his opening remarks, it was soon Chi Liang's turn, and before answering the reporters' questions, Chi Liang began to show his new jersey, and without exception, he chose No. 1 again!

"Is there anything you'd like to say about the new team?"

"I'm very happy to be a part of the Nets, mainly because the Nets are so sincere. In case you didn't know, the owner and general manager of the Nets traveled to Houston in person before being traded, so I really want to improve the team's results! ”

For such a question, Chi Liang already has a draft in his heart, so naturally it is not a problem.

"What are your goals for the new season?"

"Naturally, it's back to the playoffs! I want to be able to drive the whole team, and preferably to help my teammates play star stats, so that we can go further! ”

Bang Bang Bang ~

As soon as Chi Liang's words fell, there was warm applause, and many reporters who were close to the Nets or valued Chi Liang began to applaud.

At the same time, Armstrong, who was acting as a foil on the side, was obviously much more comfortable, and he had a little more sense of identity with Chi Liang.

In the face of reporters' questions, Chi Liang is also familiar with the road, but most of his answers are mainly empty words and clichés, and there is not much substantive content.
