Chapter 091: Battle of the Wizards (2)
Liang Xiao's main talent is constantly growing, but the current growth rate is very slow, a formal competition now Liang Xiao can get more than ten talent points, plus the points obtained from training outside of the game, you can keep it at about 25 points a day, if there is no game, there are only ten points, which is why Liang Xiao doesn't want to waste time. All of Liang Xiao's talents have become D-rank, but there are more and some less, and now there are some aspects where Liang Xiao is not in a hurry to promote him to a higher level, but several of Liang Xiao's talent skills are indeed very adaptable now, and if they don't rise, the gains outweigh the losses. So Liang Xiao worked his natural skills.
Not to mention that Liang Xiao is training at the talent training ground, but it is said that the head coach of the Knicks, Van Gundy, went to every player's room to check, although the daily behavior of the players as a head coach does not have much full dryness, but for the needs of the team's record, Van Gundy still has the right to let whoever has more playing time and who has less playing time. When Van Gundy made his rounds, only a few people were still in the room, he had to shake his head, seeing that the current Knicks players are constantly getting old, and when he once led a group of players such as Ewing and Houston to dominate the league, he can only describe it as speechless when he thinks about the current situation.
But when I arrived at Liang Xiao's room, I found that this Chinese kid, who is usually very close to Sprewell, didn't go out to be chic today, and he also looked at Liang Xiao differently in his heart. In Van Gundy's view, Liang Xiao can definitely be used as a pillar of the future Knicks, and now Liang Xiao said that he definitely does not look like a rookie who has just entered the league, but like a giant who has not grown up, a future superstar.
But all this is still waiting for Liang Xiao's own play, because in the NBA league, there have been too many talented players, all of whom have ruined themselves because of laziness, alcohol and other factors.
There was nothing to say all night, and at nine o'clock the next morning, Liang Xiao and other Knicks players gathered in a rented arena for training. In a big city like Washington, there are stadiums everywhere, and besides, the NBA has its own system of operation in the United States for so many years.
Liang Xiao didn't know what time Sprewell would return to the hotel, but from their tired eyes, it could be seen that they must have come back very late. If it was usual, they might have slept in the dark the next day, but today is the game against the Wizards, and the team has regular training, so they can't be late, otherwise the consequences will be very troublesome.
Even though the Knicks are training now, Sprewell didn't arrive at the arena until almost nine o'clock. Liang Xiao has been training here for more than two hours.
Van Gundy looked at the Knicks players below who looked listless one by one, and was a little angry in his heart, although the strength of today's Wizards is not very strong, but it is not useless, take the Flyer Jordan as an example, it cannot be ignored, and now Jordan, who is almost forty years old, can still get an average of 20 points per game. But this group of people didn't have two people who were angry, and they ran out to play at night. Thinking about it, Van Gundy began to be ruthless with the Knicks' players.
"Hey, Ratril, when did you come back last night, and you don't mean to stop looking?" Liang Xiao has now run seven full-time switchbacks, and usually, Van Gundy is carried out in groups of five, and all kinds of training are arranged in an orderly manner, but after seven turnarounds today, he hasn't stopped, and it seems that Sprewell and they went out to a nightclub to party last night made Van Gundy very unhappy.
Sprewell moved his legs a little tiredly, and said with an unrepentant face, "It's not too late, thinking that there is a game today, I will be back at two o'clock, I didn't expect to be so angry today, it seems that I will have to come back at one o'clock in the future!" ”
Liang Xiao listened to Sprewell's words, and suddenly a black line flowed down his face, Come back at two o'clock, why don't you just come back here in the morning to train, so that you don't have to toss back and forth.
After the end of ten, Van Gundy finally compassionately let everyone listen, even if he was angry, but Van Gundy still knew that he had to play against the Wizards today, and knew how to give these thorns a leg up without too much physical exertion.
Van Gundy had everyone sit and stretch, constantly circling around as if an eagle were circling in the sky waiting for the creature to make a mistake, and then stretched out his claws. "Some of you really don't take the game seriously, and now the game is about to start, but some people are just thinking about how to speed up their lives, I think if you want to be happy, next time it's not so simple, I think next time, you just stay with the Knicks to recuperate!" ”
Each team has a squad of 15 men, but there are usually only 12 players in the team, and the other three are used as injury spots, but no one cares who you put in the injury.
Van Gundy stopped at the right time and did not train for long, after all, training is not something that can be made up in this day, but is accumulated day by day. Two hours later, the Knicks finished the game, and after getting acquainted with the court in the afternoon, they awaited the evening's game.
For Liang Xiao, winning or losing this game is not very important to him now, today against the Wizards, you can see the legendary god-like existence of the Flyer, who used to only be able to see the style of the Flyer on the TV, and after this season, the Flyer has officially retired and became the owner of the Bobcats, although the Bobcats have not yet been established, and the Hornets have just moved from Charlotte to New Orleans, and everything is still in the pipeline.
Knicks vs. Wizards, it can be said that if there is no Flyer Jordan, it must be a one-sided situation, the Wizards have disappeared from people's vision for many years, if it weren't for the Flyers coming to this team now, the Wizards really can't be struggling in which situation. Even if it is a god-like existence like the Flying Man, it is impossible to save the terminally ill Wizards, Liang Xiao knows, and it was not until later when the Wizards' perverse Agent Zero Gilbert Arenas shined in the league that people began to talk about the Wizards, and the existence of the Wizards' Arenas, Butler and Jamison's Three Musketeers.
This game was influenced by the Flyer Jordan, and the Wizards' arena MIC was full tonight, and TNT TV and NBA TV broadcast it. In China, the five stations did not pretend to force this game, because today's Rockets game and the Knicks game overlapped. For the imperial court TV, the most important thing is Genhong Miaozheng, Liang Xiao is a halfway monk after all, there is no draft process, Da Yao is the top of the draft, and there is no reason for the court TV not to broadcast rockets.
But all of this has nothing to do with Liang Xiao. In the game the day before yesterday, in the Knicks' game against the 76ers, Liang Xiao scored 15 points, and he could be said to show his face in front of the national TV audience, and later Zuo Qiang said that now domestic fans, especially female fans around 20 years old, are particularly infatuated with him.
All of this, Liang Xiao felt content. In his previous life, he could only see Da Yao alone in the NBA, and he seemed to be alone, although he had a third and a four, but Chinese basketball was Da Yao's alone, and without him, Chinese basketball would be over. Now that I'm here, it's satisfying to have such attention now.
Besides, there is an old saying, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, Liang Xiao knows that even if he is bad, the Chinese people will pay attention to their every game, which is the ridiculousness of the Chinese people, and it is also the cuteness, so this Knicks vs. Wizards game is being broadcast in many domestic media and networks.
The game was broadcast live in the United States by TNT TV, and the commentators of the game were big-mouthed Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith, who helped the Rockets win the championship in '94 and '95.
