Chapter 6 Late Players Meet-and-Greet
With the start of the summer league, the Rockets' non-main players and rookies, as well as the players who tried out with the Rockets, are all fighting for the Rockets' roster for the new season.
In the summer league, the Rockets' best performance is this year's No. 5 rookie, Kevin Garnett.
He averaged 28.6 points, 11.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.2 steals, and 2.4 blocks per game, showing excellent physical fitness and basketball skills.
Bodi Roga, who only caught up with two summer league games, handed over 13 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, and a quasi-triple-double, which was eye-catching. And he's a little disjointed in his team's tandem, and in the less defensive-minded summer league, that stats don't prove anything.
And the bus did not perform very well in the summer league, and after all the games, only 8.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.5 assists were performing, which was very worrying.
At this time, at the headquarters of the Rockets, Old Tang and Tiger were discussing the lineup for the new season of the Rockets.
"Boss, our lineup is still very good this year, the high school student you exchanged for is not a good seedling, and it is definitely an all-star level to cultivate." Lao Tang looked at the data of the summer league and said happily.
"Hehe, Rudy, this is summer league, and if you can play this stat in the regular season, you will praise him." Tiger was a little happy, after all, he insisted on getting people.
"Hehe, boss, I think you're overjoyed, if you really play like this in the regular season, then he can be an All-Star this year." Lao Tang shook his head and smiled.
"However, after a few years of polishing, he is definitely an all-star role, and the Yugoslav is also very good, only catching up with two games, he has a quasi-triple-double performance, but he still seems a little lacking in terms of integration with the team." Old Tang continued.
"Well, yes, I thought of it too. However, this guy can't be missed, don't you feel that he and American basketball are two styles, a player like him is definitely an excellent team player, is he the kind of person who plays under the influence of European basketball, playing is about brains, very calm, well, very cunning, don't you see him make 6 fouls in 2 games, an average of three per game, such a player, is it a very beneficial addition to our team, I am very much looking forward to his performance. Tiger continued his performance.
"I don't want to say it, boss, your vision is really poisonous. However, the big Chinese can not perform very well, averaging more than 4 turnovers per game and committing many fouls. Old Tang couldn't see Tiger's unbeaten expression, so he took out the bus and hit him.
"Hehe, Lao Tang, it seems that you have paid attention to the surface data, and you haven't thought about it deeply, first of all, the bus is yellow, and there is a gap between the black race and the white race in terms of physical fitness, but you have to see that he is only less than 20 years old, in terms of technology, do you think Hakim and Patrick can be much better than him when they are less than 20 years old, for this big man is to tailor a plan, from physical fitness, body coordination, surname, strength and technology, to all-round training. This big man is better than the Bulls' Na Langley. Tiger smiled sneeringly.
"Ah, that, okay, boss, I'm going back and working with the uniform team to make a training plan for the big Chinese guys. However, I hope he can keep going, but I think I can only send him to the NBDL this year, and I guess I can still play after the game and training. I don't want him to be like 'Big Dream', as long as he's about the same as Ostertag, the Jazz rookie this year, I'm very satisfied," Tang said, shaking his head.
"Hehe, he'll please you, Rudy."
"Hopefully, by the way, boss, you haven't met our players yet, when are you going to meet them."
Lao Tang said.
"Team, don't they all have to assemble at the end of September? This is just the time. Tiger looked confused.
Seeing this, Lao Tang said bitterly: "I won't tell you, don't you go, I specially called to let those guys who were on vacation come back." ”
Looking at the old soup, Tiger was a little embarrassed.
He smiled and said, "Go, go right away." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the gym, the people who play in the summer league are here, and we're adding a few old guys." Old Tang got up and walked out.
followed Lao Tang to the training hall, a group of people in the hall were of different heights, black and white, which was called a spectacular.
"Bang bang bang," there was a round of applause.
"Everybody, come here, and introduce to everyone, this is our new boss, Mr. Tiger Jones." Old Tang pointed to Tiger and introduced.
"Hi guys, I'm Tiger Jones, and we're going to be working together in the future." Tiger introduced himself with a smile.
"Hey, boss, you're the boss, we're part-timers, we all have to listen to you in the future, hehe, you won't pay us a salary." Kenny Smith said in the crowd.
"Hey, Smith, are you cursing me for going bankrupt, don't worry, if I go bankrupt, I will sell you first."
"Hehe, I don't dare."
"Hello, Mr. Tiger, I'm Hakim Olajuwon. You've bought Team Rocket, and we hope Team Rocket will be great under your management. "Big Dream stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Hey, hello Big Dream, I'm your fan, and our whole family loves you very much." Looking at the smiling 'Big Dream' Tiger himself has a feeling of dreaming.
"Thank you, Mr. Tiger, I hope your whole family is in good health."
"Hello, Mr. Tiger, I'm Clyde Drexler." The team's number two man, 'Glider', stepped forward to introduce himself.
"Hello Clyde, your arrival this year has brought another championship to Houston, and you have brought us good luck."
"Thank you, I am flattered by your compliment." 'Glider' replied with a smile.
"Hello sir, I'm Kassel" 'Alien' is really ~ very ~ very ~ 'cool'
"Sir, I'm Herrera." Well, a silent man.
"Hello sir, I'm Mario Eli." Ha 'Kiss of Death' elegant baritone is the same as me,
"Hello, Mr. Tiger, I'm Robert Horry." Wow, this old demon 'Mr. Key' is still very young, and he is handsome, and he looks very much like Denzel Washington.
"Hey, boss, I'm Kenny Smith." Future ace commentator.
"Hello sir, I'm Chuck Brown." Thick bass.
"Hello, sir, I'm Mark Jackson." The old demon who assists third in the future.
"Hello, I'm Matt Bullard." The big guy who was very accurate.
"Hello sir, I'm Kevin Garnett." The "wolf king" whose fate was changed by Tiger.
"Hello, Mr. Tiger, I'm Dejan Bodiroga, and thank you so much for inviting me to play in the NBA." 'White Magician' hehe, you can still go, if you go, what a loss
"Hello sir, I'm Battle and I'm from China."
"Hehe, you can speak Chinese, I can understand it." As soon as Tiger spoke, his fluent Chinese made the bus's jaw pull for a long time.
"Ahh It took a few seconds for the bus to react and reply.
"Hehe, it's nothing, I have a good talent for languages, I can also speak French and Latin." Tiger continued to stink.
Then, this guy actually showed off his French and Latin in front of the players, and everyone who watched it was dumbfounded, thinking in their hearts that he was worthy of being a person with a net worth of hundreds of millions at a young age, which is amazing.
Later, Lao Tang couldn't stand it anymore, and coughed: "Let's ask the boss to say a few words to us." ”
The crowd applauded.
"Hello everyone, first of all, I would like to congratulate you all on winning this season's championship this year. It's a pity that I don't qualify for this ring, and I'm very dissatisfied. However, I know that in the near future, I will definitely be like this ring forever. And there will be a lot, so that everyone's hands can't be carried I hope everyone will work together, and I'm done, thank you. "There are few words, but they show a kind of determination and bearing, that is, the rocket will not stop, and our goals are ambitious.
The crowd whispered on the sidelines.
After the meeting, Tiger invited everyone to a big meal, and the relationship with everyone was a lot closer.
And a group of players also feel that this is more approachable and has no fight, and they are still very young to mingle with everyone.
At the dinner, Tiger and the bus talked for a while.
Tiger told the bus that he would not appear in the NBA this year, and that he would be sent to the NBDL to play, but the Rockets' uniform team would tailor a training plan for him and urge him to complete the plan, otherwise he would have to return to China and would not be able to gain a foothold in the NBA.
Tiger and Daba said that your body is very good in China, but in the United States, such a physique can only be considered qualified, you have to temper your physical strength, footsteps, strength, technique, consciousness and many other things.
Under Tiger's agitation, the bus was like beating chicken blood, slapping his chest to show that he would definitely be able to complete the plan and not embarrass the Chinese.
Looking at the young bus, Tiger smiled secretly in his heart: "Sample, don't be lame with you."
The bus didn't know that for the next year, he would live in nightmares every day, but when the nightmare woke up, then the spring of the bus also came.
