NBA Summer League refers to games that are played during the NBA off-season. Generally speaking, this kind of league is much less intense than the NBA preseason, because as long as the main player of the team, or even the main rotation of the player, will not be sent by the team to participate in the summer league.

Only some of the cooler players who don't usually play are sent here to find confidence and maintain their touch, so it's filled with a lot of fringe benches, rookies, sophomores, and a whole bunch of undrafted players eager to prove themselves, as well as some high school players like the best high school players in the nation.

The low intensity can be seen.

In short, this league is basically similar to the CBA in terms of intensity, mainly based on training, and of course, there is also the inspection of some favorite players.

Li Ming read the email Tom sent him, and took a taxi directly to the destination written in the email.

As soon as I arrived at the arena, before I entered the door, it was already filled with the sound of basketball rubbing against the floor.

"So early?" Li Ming looked at the time, it was only eight o'clock in the morning, and some people's training had already begun.

As the saying goes, the scariest thing in the world is not that someone is stronger than you, but that someone who is stronger than you works harder than you. Li Ming hurriedly quickened his pace and walked in, and just bumped into a big belly head-on.

“wtf！” That's a black man, and when you open your mouth, it's a standard American scolding! But then his expression changed, "Hey! Plum?! I was about to call you! I'm Tom, man, come in with me! ”

Li Ming was dragged in.

"I haven't said it back yet!" Li Ming didn't forget that this guy had just scolded him first, which was a loss that the cautious Li Ming couldn't bear.

But after a few steps, Tom had already brought Li Ming to the coach, who wanted to talk back and lost the opportunity, so he could only give up angrily.

Naturally, the coach can't be Zhuge Vic, a small league, where can you get such a great coach to command, generally speaking, the summer league is randomly selected from the assistant coaches to be the head coach of the team. The coach who came with the team this time was Amy Yuduka, who played for the Spurs for two seasons as a player, and although the stats were not very impressive, his good outside defensive ability was impressive, and he became an assistant coach for the Spurs directly after retiring.

"This is Lee? Ok！ Get ready to test! Yuduka just glanced at Li Ming casually, and then pointed to the training ground, obviously this is a coach who is not good at words, and everything is based on the test results.

"Man! Let's go! Tom patted Li Ming, and without saying much, motioned for him to follow Yuduka.

The first is the basic test, Li Ming had already tested it before the draft, and now it is just a new formality.

To be honest, there were really no bright spots in his basic test, and no matter which one he did, he basically just passed the passing line. However, Li Ming didn't complain anything to the coaching staff who were discussing over there, just waited patiently, the Spurs' basic test of players is the least important among the thirty teams, and many second-round picks and draft picks have been given opportunities in this team, and even played a value.

That's why Bruce will help Lee Ming contact the Spurs.

"Is there anything else you can show?!" Sure enough, the test was not over, even though Yuduka came to Li Ming with a frown after reading the test data.

"My defensive skills are pretty good!" Li Ming wanted to talk about his mid-range shooting ability, but at the moment Yuduka was obviously not satisfied with his basic test, if he couldn't get into his eyes after waiting for a while, he was likely to be driven away directly, so he put his hope on the skills rewarded by the system, from Bowen's super defense.

If you can really have that kind of defensive ability, you will have no problem winning in the summer league.

"Defensive ability?!" Yu Duka looked at Li Ming with some surprise, and felt a little disdainful in his heart: Is this yellow boy not good at brain? He told me he was defensive?

Whether the defensive ability is good or not, to put it bluntly, is related to three abilities, one is the body, once the player has explosive level physical fitness, his defensive ability is generally not bad, LeBron's pegboard chasing hat, Howard's three consecutive strongest defensive player honors This is based on the explosive physical fitness of the two; One is reflexes, and having excellent reflexes is also a must for a super defensive player; Another is experience, NBA veterans rarely lose position in defense, relying on the defensive reading ability accumulated from more than ten years of game experience.

But which of these three abilities can be linked to the yellow boy in front of him? Experience? Don't be funny, where do people who aren't even rookies get their game experience? Not to mention the body and reactions, the data from Li Ming's basic test made Yuduka almost cry.

“ok！ THEN CAN I FIND SOMEONE TO COME TO YOU ONE BY ONE?! However, Judoka didn't say anything sarcastic, he is not a trash talker per se, otherwise he would not have won the Josh Crell Sportsmanship Award.

Li Ming nodded, the disdain in Yuduka's eyes was in his eyes, and he was gearing up in his heart, planning to blind the other party's dog eyes!

"White, come on!"

As Judoka shouted, a young man with a big goatee and a round face walked over with a grin, his name was Derrick White, the Spurs' only first-round pick this year, the 29th pick in the first round.

Li Ming also heard of him when he was in the NCAA, a super rookie in Colorado, with a good ability to make fouls, and at the same time the distance and three-point threat in one hand are very good, Li Ming used to be with him for a few minutes, it was a complete defeat, and he also paid a few fouls, which can be called a small shame.

White had been noticing this just now, and he obviously recognized Li Ming, and glanced at Yuduka, as if he didn't understand why the coach would let himself fight with such a weak opponent.

"Ming, let White be your opponent, as long as you can defend him three times in five rounds, then you have passed the test!" Yuduka pointed to the unused court behind him, and then said to White, "Do your best, if you lose, then you can stay in the arena after training!" ”

“ok！” White smiled helplessly at Li Ming, "I'm sorry, Ming, I have to do my best!" ”

Although he said this, this guy's face was still a little careless.

"Damn! Underestimated by this guy! Li Ming pursed his lips, although he knew that the other party had the ability to despise him, but he was still slanderous in his heart: I'll let you see the true biography from Uncle Bowen later! I have to prevent you from crying, and it can be regarded as revenge for the previous arrow.
