On September 1st, the training camp of the Charlotte Bobcats officially opened, and the new arena approved by the city of Charlotte has been completed and delivered. It took only three months before and after, and it took only three months from the decision to the completion.

The new arena of the Charlotte Bobcats is built in strict accordance with the most advanced NBA venues, and the city of Charlotte, which is based on the financial industry, is a small Wall Street financial market with a lot of financial revenue, not to mention that the Bobcats team built a new arena, many brands have fought for the naming rights, and the Charlotte city government has also invested a lot of money in the construction of a new arena.

The Bobcats' new arena was named Time Warner Center because more than 50 percent of the funding for the new arena was paid for by Time Warner.

The Bobcats' training camp was held at the new arena in the eastern suburbs of Charlotte, not far from the Manor House on Sophie Marceau Street, where Hu Qingniu was just a short walk to work.

Generally, when the training camp starts, the team will also be there to not accept the old and young players, or to pass on some of their own experience, and more importantly, to encourage the current players.

The Bobcats have only been in the army for a year, and there is no team name.

Hu Qingniu watches real-time news on the Internet.

"Legendary Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shows up at Lakers training camp"

"All-time superstar" Dr. J "Irving appeared at the 76ers"

The soul of the Green Army "Lord of the Rings" Russell helps the Celtics in the new season

......

on the web.

After a long grass period, NBA fans have finally waited for the start of the training camps for each team, and there is a lot of news about each team today.

Fans from all over the world have left messages under the news of each team.

Xia Zhenzhen: "Old man Jabbar seems to be in good spirits, I hope to give more guidance to the boys in my lake." ”

Proud wolf proud: "'Dr. J' is the same hand dribble and pick the blue back then, if only 'Dr. J' joined the current 76ers, now there are too few AI helpers." ”

Hongchen Xuanyu: "Wow, except for Old Man Russell, Bob Cousy, Bill Sharman, Havlicek, and Robert Parish, my Kai's reputation is much greater. ”

NBLHB: "I've beaten the whole league in terms of quantity and quality, and what other team is not convinced?" ”

......

When Hu Qingniu entered the stadium, he clearly heard the broken words of a reporter.

"Head, why were we assigned to the Bobcats, although the Bobcats had a good record last season, but there are no famous hotels at all, isn't the training camp here to interview those team names?"

"Boy, don't you know that we are the least valued in the Taili. You see that the newcomers who are reused are all going to the Lakers, and the Celtics are a team with many names, so we can honestly interview the players. ”

"But, head, these players and fans can see their news every day, and they don't expect to be attracted by celebrities who don't show up a few times a year."

......

Hu Qingniu couldn't help but wonder, it turns out that there is such an unspoken rule for interviewing reporters in the training camp. But the Bobcats don't have a name? This Hu Qingniu disagrees.

There was a press conference before the start of training camp, and the Bobcats were scheduled a little late, and the players had already started to warm up.

Hu Qingniu beckoned.

"Shaq! Dwyan! Come and join the conference! ”

Hu Qingniu didn't shout much, only called the two biggest players, and even today's champion Howard didn't call, which was originally very topical, Hu Qingniu didn't call because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to sit down.

Unexpectedly, many reporters at the scene protested. They were holding signs from many media outlets, and they were debugging the equipment, but their ears were always facing this, and when they heard that Hu Qingniu had only called two players to attend the press conference, everyone quit.

"Why are there only two players, the Lakers have five players in attendance at one time, and there are three celebrities?"

"There are only 6 famous Celtics, and we don't have any famous places when we come to the Bobcats, and there are only two players, how can we interview."

"Yes, at least the champion Lang Dwight Howard is coming, and the Great Wall of China Wang Dazhi, I want to ask him if he wants to fight against Yao Ming in the new season."

The reporters protested, but Hu Qingniu ignored it, he asked the security guards to separate the reporters, and only took O'Neill and Wade to the press conference.

When he arrived at the scene, Hu Qingniu found a middle-left position to sit, probably the position of the third person, so that O'Neill and Wade sat in the two seats on the left and right respectively.

The reporters followed, dumbfounded, the number of seats.

One... Two... Three... Four... Five...... A total of ten seats, my God, what are the Bobcats doing with so many seats, isn't it just three people, coach Hu Qingniu + the star O'Neal and Wade.

And what does this sitting position mean, do you want to sit like this, do you want to do a bird, and put on a position?

A reporter asked.

"Coach, can we get started?"

Hu Qingniu waved his hand and replied with a smile.

"We'll wait, there are still a couple of team members who didn't show up."

All the reporters learned about Suo Suo and asked left and right.

"Who else, the Bobcats are not only the latest to press conferences, but also so troublesome, it's really tiring. Alas, who makes us the least valued. I heard that the Heat team, which has not been established for a long time, has Morning to help. ”

......

After waiting for a while, someone came in, dark-skinned, tall, white suit, a string of them, several of them were bald, and everyone was stunned.

After a while, the seats were full, and there were no empty seats.

Begin the introduction by sitting in the main seat in the middle.

"Hi everyone, I'm Michael Jordan, the executive chairman of the Charlotte Bobcats."

"Hi everyone, I'm Elvin Johnson, general manager of affairs for the Charlotte Bobcats."

Hu Qingniu also picked up the microphone, looked at the stunned crowd and said with a smile.

"Hello everyone, I'm Hu Qingniu, the head coach and deputy general manager of affairs of the Bobcats. I saw that there were some journalist friends whose camera covers were not opened, so don't forget to open them. ”

There are really a few TV stations that are stupid and don't even have their cameras turned on, and these reporters are scrambling to turn them on. Other people's TV stations have filmed, if this is not filmed, it is estimated that he will be fired by **oss when he goes back.

It's still Hu Qingniu, he took the microphone and introduced them one by one.

"I'm going to introduce you to these familiar players, Patrick Ewing, my chief assistant coach."

"Dennis Rodman, head of rookie development for the team."

"Charles Barkley, the team's basketball affairs consultant."

"Here are the two new additions, Karl Malone, the team's assistant coach, who is responsible for training on the inside."

"Gary Payton, the team's assistant coach, is responsible for the training of the guards and is also the assistant coach of the defense."

I'm sure you're happy with our press conference lineup.

Satisfied, so satisfied.

Jordan, Magic, Ewing, Barkley, Rodman, Malone, Payton, this lineup made us look stupid, 7 Hall of Fame, two all-time top five, and killed the Celtics' famous lineup in seconds.

The reporters at the scene were speechless excitedly, they are usually the most neglected reporters in various TV stations, this time I thought it was a chore, but I didn't expect the Bobcats to come to 7 big guys at once, and the inauguration information of Malone and Payton is first-hand information, this news value can be imagined.

The other Barkley and Rodman, they just know that they can go with the Bobcats, and this time they broke out together, all of which are priceless news. This interview is done well, and it is not a problem to go back for a promotion and a salary increase.

There are many celebrities, all of them heavyweights, and the enthusiasm of the reporters rose at once, and they raised their hands to ask questions.

Hu Qingniu acted as the host, and after a while, he felt that he couldn't hold them down, and they all rushed to speak.

"Michael, Michael, I have a question, what are the goals of the Bobcats for the new season, will you want to take it further?"

Boss Joe replied.

"From the time I started the Charlotte Bobcats, I had only one goal, to win the championship. So, every year our goal is to win the championship. ”

Another reporter asked anxiously.

"Mr. Dennis, I want to start by stating that I've been a big fan of yours since the Pistons in the '80s. I'm so happy to see you on the Wizards back on track, and now it's great to see you able to stick with some meaningful work after you retire." ”

This is still a Rodman fan, and he has completely forgotten that he is a reporter in charge of interviews, not a fan.

Rodman was touched.

"Thank you, I'll keep going down this path. Love your family, love your friends, go ahead! ”

Rodman raised his right arm, and Hu Qingniu also felt a little, because he Rodman had changed the trajectory in the second half of his life, and he no longer lived like a clown because of his bohemianism. Rodman is actually not bad in nature, he is still a kind person, and now he has found his way, and Hu Qingniu is happy for him.

Until the end, Hu Qingniu found that the team's players O'Neal and Wade had no one to ask.

......

Karl Malone and Gary Payton have been on their toes since their Finals loss, but they're getting old. Malone doesn't want to play anymore, Payton is hesitating, and they're all waiting to hear from Fat O'Neal.

O'Neal contacted them after signing with the Bobcats, and both of them wanted a ring, but they were indeed getting older, and their strength had declined, and the Bobcats had more powerful players, and they couldn't play well when they came. None of them want to be role players anymore, and what happened to them with the Lakers last season also has a psychological shadow. Being disrespected by the younger generations, it feels uncomfortable.

Hu Qingniu suggested that they join the coaching staff, the players are also rings, and the coaches can also get rings, and they hit it off. Malone and Payton both have some gas in their tanks, but not much, both of them love the basketball court and don't want to stay away, the assistant coach position is just right, let them be the head coach, they are too troublesome.

So, today Karl Malone and Gary Payton officially took up the coaching position of the Bobcats, and many players don't know it yet.

The press conference of the training camp is over, and the next step is the makeup photos for the new season.

As a result, another surprising picture appeared for a group of reporters, Boss Qiao took the lead, and the celebrities put on the training uniforms of the Bobcats.

Hu Qingniu then announced a shocking news that the Bobcats will hold a training match internally, and the two sides are the celebrities and the official members of the team.

Jordan, Magic, Ewing, Barkley, Rodman, Malone, Payton played in training games, oh my god!

This kind of group competition was hard grinding out by Boss Qiao, Hu Qingniu originally disagreed, but he couldn't bear Boss Qiao kept saying that he had itchy hands and wanted to teach these players a lesson. O'Neill was not convinced when he heard this, and the two groups of people started talking on the court as if they had discussed. In particular, O'Neill and Barkley are not convinced by anyone, and they have fought a few years ago, and today they are enemies who are very angry when they see each other.

The trend of the times, Hu Qingniu can't help it, you can fight if you like.

Playing ball, of course.

After discussing, the two sides decided their own starting lineup and tactics, and Hu Qingniu watched from the sidelines, and neither side could help. In the end, Hu Qingniu asked for an errand for a referee, he was afraid that the two sides would be too angry, and it would be bad to hurt the players and celebrities.

In fact, it is also a good thing to have this group of celebrities to play training matches with the players, and the Bobcats have a big change in the summer and need to hone their lineup. Don't look at Jordan, most of them are over 45 years old, in fact, they are in good shape, especially Jordan, Ewing, Barkley, and Rodman, they have long been recuperated by Hu Qingniu. The magician has also recently started to lose weight and train according to Hu Qingniu's requirements, and his body has recovered well. Malone and Payton have just finished the Finals, and their form is not much worse.

In Hu Qingniu's opinion, this famous team may not have enough physical strength to play the regular season, but it is really strong to play the series. Don't look at the Bobcats players in their prime, and when they start playing, Hu Qingniu really doesn't have much confidence in them. Look at Wade, he was still abused by Boss Joe a few days ago, but it's not as bad as before, and he can occasionally win a game or two.

The stadium was cleared, and the training equipment was removed by the staff. Journalists are allowed to take photos and videos, but they must be seated. In the end, it was given to Barkley welfare, and TNT TV was licensed to broadcast exclusively.

After discussing for a long time, the two sides finally made up their minds.

The starting lineup of the players, O'Neal, Dazhi, Josh, Bale, Wade, this is the same arrangement as Hu Qingniu, it seems that they also consciously know to hone the starting lineup.

The starting lineup of the famous team, Ewing, Malone, Barkley, Jordan, Magic. Rodman and Payton are on the bench, and if this lineup is all at its peak, it won't scare people to death, but now it's enough for others to eat a pot.

Gearing up, both sides stood on the pitch.

Jordan said with a smile and pointed at O'Neal.

"Little one, don't let us beat you to tears."

O'Neill choked back.

"You old arms and legs should be careful, it's not good to rub and touch them later."

Hu Qingniu came over with a whistle in his mouth.

"Okay, don't give me nonsense, respect the old later, love the young, put away the beating, don't let anyone get hurt."
