"Yes, it'll be fine." Delong heard that Tang Tian was comforting himself, and nodded with a smile.

"Trust it, this season the team still needs you to carry forward." Tang Tian said and reached out and patted Delong's shoulder.

Among the team's three cores, Johnson (older) and Lopes (poor defense) have obvious weaknesses, and DeLong is the most suitable to play the core, of course, if the injury is resolved, otherwise it is just a mess like a previous life.

"I will." The encouragement and affirmation from the boss eased Delon's mentality on the verge of collapse a lot.

Tang Tian nodded, then turned around and walked back.

When he walked back, Tang Tian entered the system's alternate dimensional space and directly exchanged an iron ankle for Delong.

Delong looked at Tang Tian's back, and at this moment, he felt a hot sensation coming from his left ankle, and the numb feeling made him can't help but let out a comfortable muffled snort.

It was also at this moment that he felt that the intimacy between himself and Tang Tian had increased a lot compared to before.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for redeeming honor points for 5 times and getting a chance to win a lottery. ”

When Tang Tian was walking, a cold sound suddenly sounded in his mind.

With a flower in front of his eyes, he returned to the system's alternate dimension.

In front of me is a familiar lottery machine.

This is the one that has been drawn before.

Tang Tian had been speculating about the lottery rules of the system before, and it seemed that he had guessed correctly.

The first time is 3 exchanges, the second time is 5 exchanges, and the next time there should be only 7 exchanges to draw.

The lottery machine is still the same one, but the prize column on it is completely different from before.

$100 million, 5 honor points, actual combat weapons, physical strengtheners, referee bias card ......

This time, the prizes are obviously richer and more tempting than the previous ones.

It seems that while the difficulty of winning the lottery is increasing, the rewards are also increasing.

With the first experience, Tang Tian was also familiar with the road this time, and after clicking the lottery button, he waited patiently.

The aperture went from slow to fast, and finally to dazzling, and then slowly slowed down the rate, jumped at the actual combat weapon, and then froze down.

5 honor points.

When he saw the prize, Tang Tian was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't believe it, and then couldn't help laughing.

This just spent 2 honor points, and I actually got 5 honor points when I turned around!

This is a full 5, before the change, at least two or three tasks have to be completed, and wait for two or three years.

These two ancestral honor points are really extraordinary!

Tang Tianmei smiled, he had returned to reality.

Frank couldn't help but look at him curiously when he saw that he was in such a good mood.

"Delong's ankle should be almost recovered." He covered up the past with his words.

"Really?" Frank looked surprised.

"Yes, he's been recovering well this summer and we're going to have a blockbuster season." Tang Tian continued.

Although Frank had doubts, Tang Tian didn't fool him about the reason, and his confidence increased a lot.

The training on the field continued, and DeLong pedaled the bike for a while, feeling good at the ankle, and after a while he went down to the field to train.

Slowly, his range of movements increased, and when he was one-on-one with Livingston, he easily outperformed his opponent with a series of large corssovers.

Frank's eyes lit up as he watched from the sidelines.

This is what they are familiar with, and this is what they have been looking forward to.

This season's Nets will really be a surprise!

The training camp lasted about a week, and the rest of the squad reported one after another, including head coach Kidd.

The 17-man squad is very competitive, the players are working hard in training, and the difference between DeLong and last season has also boosted the team's morale.

Tang Tian found a suitable time and chatted with Kidd about some issues related to the team's tactics and the new season.

"Our goal this season is to make the playoffs, preferably in the top half."

"It's challenging." Kidd said directly.

The Nets have lost Garnett and Pierce in succession this season, and most of them have been added by rookies and fringe players, and the strength on paper has declined significantly, and it is theoretically difficult to make the playoffs, let alone the top half.

'Yes, there are challenges, but this team can do it.' Kidd was blunt, and Tang Tian didn't embellish it.

Kidd didn't speak again, he knew that Tang Tian was the head coach, and he definitely didn't just want to talk to him about a goal.

'So we need to make some tactical adjustments.' Sure enough, Tang Tian continued.

"What adjustment?"

"Offensively, we have to start by using Brook Lopez's playmaking skills, which he has talent, including Jokic, who we drafted this year.

Secondly, we need to train the three-point shot, Delon and Brook have the ability to score in key moments, but our role players need to have more consistent shooting ability on the outside, and the current league is a league that talks about three-point shooting and offensive space, and we can't rely too much on mid-range scoring as before. ”

"But we don't have the talent for that right now, Deron and Yi's three-point is inconsistent, Brooke and Joe's three-point is almost non-existent, and the new Bojan is a three-point shooter, but he still needs time to grow, I think we're going to make small changes to the original playbook, instead of reinventing it like this?" Kidd made a different view.

"Jason, you spent a season with me in the Thunder last season, and you know that the strength of the Thunder team today is inseparable from the new system, and small repairs and small changes will only make those changes slowly disappear in the end, and the team will only stay in the same place." Tang Tian continued.

"Okay, I'll try my best." Kidd didn't continue to refute Tang Tian, playing under Tang Tian for a year, he knew that Tang Tian was the kind of person who said the same.

"Then there is the defensive end, the tactic of wrapping the ball carrier is used as little as possible, now the league is speeding up, the ability of each team to handle the ball is constantly increasing, too many bag and clip ball carriers, it will only make us lose our position on the defensive end, even if we don't defend one-on-one, it is better than giving the opponent space and watching them perform and score."

Tang Tian used a very vivid metaphor, and also expressed what he wanted to say very vividly.

"Understood." Kidd didn't argue this time.

Tang Tian seemed a little surprised, Kidd's set had run through his entire coaching career in his previous life.

But he didn't think much about it, this reaction was mostly because he had gotten along with him before and knew the performance of his character.

"Come on, I'm looking forward to you leading this team to a different performance." Tang Tian finally encouraged.
