Chapter 23: The Invincible "Emperor Zhan"

The next day, the team had an open training day.

Many media reporters and Cavaliers fans came to watch the Cavaliers practice.

The point, of course, is only LeBron James, after all, this is the strongest talent that is known as the NBA in 50 years.

Paul Silas gave the crowd a brief interview and began to compete in groups.

Of course, Ye Feng, Capono and Gerani, the three marginal people, were not interviewed.

The two groups were led by two assistant coaches, Brandon Malone and Mark Ososki.

Mark's group is the red team,

Centre-forwards: Ilgoskas, Gerani

Power forwards: Boozer, Darius

Small forwards: Davis, Newbell

Shooting guard: Kaedric

Playmaker: McGinnis

Brandon's group is the blue team,

Center: Mime

Power Forward: Lee

Small forwards: James, Capo

Shooting guards: Ollie, Ye Feng

Defender: Wagner

Seeing this grouping, everyone was confused, and the difference in strength between the two groups was too big.

Mark's group, with four starters from last season, plus a sixth man, is almost half of last season's Cavaliers.

Brandon's group, except for James, is either a veteran or a fringe and a rookie, and none of them can play.

How are these two groups going to be played?

Only Brandon reacted, Paul Silas was trying to suppress James and himself.

In yesterday's discussion, the opinions of the three coaches did not agree, and Brandon has always had opposing opinions, which made Paul feel uncomfortable.

Paul is trying to let Brandon know who is the boss of this team through the game.

In addition, James's fame is so great that Paul himself is worried that he can't control him.

This is to give James a disgrace and make him obedient in the future.

The two starters appeared separately.

RED: Ilgoskas, Boozer, Davies, Kedrick, McGinnis.

BLU: Meme, Lee, James, Ollie, Wagner.

The only thing the blue team can help James is Dajuan Wagner, who was the No. 6 rookie in 2002 and averaged 13.4 points, 1.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in his rookie season, and has a glorious history of 100 points per game in college, known as Iverson's second.

Unfortunately, in the offseason, Wagner was diagnosed with an illness and long-term diarrhea, and he could no longer accept high-intensity games.

In Ye Feng's previous life, Wagner underwent surgery and soon faded out of the NBA, with only 103 games in his entire career.

Honk~

When the whistle blew, "Big Z" Ilgoskas, with a height of 221 cm, easily won the jump ball.

RED's McGinnis advances with the ball.

Wagner was on guard against McGinnis, and during an off-ball run, Wagner suddenly fell to the ground.

The scene was chaotic until the team doctor showed up and a brief examination showed that Wagner's life was not in danger. But after missing at least four months, it's hard to say whether you will be able to play in the future.

Wagner was carried down by the team doctor, and Paul announced that the game would resume.

The blue team has just started the battle and is missing a main general, which makes it even worse!

Brandon immediately let Capono play as a scoring guard, and veteran Ollie made a cameo appearance as a guard to continue the game.

McGinnis continued to dribble and saw that it was the veteran Ollie who was marking him, and he didn't hesitate to make a strong break.

The aged Ollie couldn't keep up at all, and he was passed in one step.

The BLU team immediately stepped up and McGinnis hoisted the ball straight into the hands of Ilgoskas on the inside.

Ilgoskas singles out Mime.

The 221-centimeter, 108-kilogram Ilgoskas is a bamboo pole-type center-forward, while the 213-centimeter-120-kilogram Mime is a meat shield center.

Ilgoskas took a top on his back, and the memes did not move.

But Big Z is an All-Star level center with a variety of offensive means, and his back turn is a jump shot, and he also has a little back.

Meme tried his best to block it, but he could only cover his eyes and watch the basketball fall into the net.

2:0。

The blue team possessed the ball, and Ollie dribbled across half court and handed it to James.

Ricky Davis was keeping an eye on James, and just as he was about to say something, James suddenly kicked in.

Then, like a helpless car, Davis was run over by a tank.

James rushed to the basket and it was directly a tomahawk slam.

Boozer, who doesn't like to defend, didn't make up for the defense at all, Big Z originally wanted to defend, but looking at James, who was stronger than himself, he watched the play decisively.

Syllable!

2:2 draw.

The basketball hoop kept shaking, making it feel like it was going to fall down at any moment.

At this button, the fans immediately cheered.

This champion is so fierce!

In the next round, the red team has the ball, and it is still the two defenders who play the blue team.

Both Capono and Ollie were slow on their feet and couldn't defend against the opposing defenders.

McGinnis breaks through and hits a mid-range shot.

4:2。

The BLU team had the ball, and James passed Davis without any pressure and went inside again.

Boozer is still watching the show, and Big Z is trying to defend.

The result is, toot~.

At the same time as the whistle blew, the ball was smashed into the basket by James and hit a 2+1.

Free throw hit.

4:5。

Seven minutes into the first quarter, the red and blue teams were 11:15.

James shot 7-of-8 and single-handedly knocked out the entire red team, and the only ball he didn't make was when he used his strength too much and jumped out of the basket.

The fans exploded directly, and every time James scored a goal, the audience stood up and cheered, as if worshipping the emperor.

Paul Silas's mouth was wide open, and he couldn't believe that where he drew a champion back in his team, he simply found a monster to come back.

He's been in the NBA all his life, and he's never seen such a terrible talent.

The red team Davis, Kaedrick, and McGinnis took turns defending James, but they were blown up one after another.

The body with enough speed can't bear it, and the speed that the body can resist can't catch up.

James is simply giving and taking, so powerful!

Ye Feng, who was sitting on the bench, also exclaimed.

But in Ye Feng's opinion, James is strong, but he is not strong to this extent. The main reason is that the red team's defense is too bad.

Big Z and Boozer are both strong offensive and weak interior lines, and they are not good at defense.

And the Cavaliers were originally a 17-65 team last season, and you can imagine how bad the defense was.

The players are used to losing, and they don't have the awareness to defend, so they don't bother to do this kind of thing that can't directly improve the stats, and it is better to leave their energy on the offense.

On the entire court, the only serious defender was actually Ricky Davis.

There is no way, he was beaten by his "little brother", his mood at the moment can be imagined.

But in the face of James, he not only couldn't defend himself, but on the offensive end, James also let him get nothing.

After playing 7 minutes, Davis shot 0-of-3 and had 2 turnovers.

He was completely blown out.

"Emperor Zhan" deserves to be Emperor Zhan!
