"The coach is here!"

While Li Tian and the others were chatting, Adelman appeared in the arena with his coaching staff.

The players stopped talking, Adelman greeted each player with a smile, and there were several people on the Kings team who had already met Adelman before, such as Li Tian, Evans, and Iguodala, but most of the players did not officially meet Adelman.

Of course, the team's main players, such as Cousins, have not met with Adelman, but they have been in contact with each other.

After a pleasantries, the players and the coaching staff met officially, and the players changed their clothes and prepared for the official training session.

After the players had warmed up, Adelman gathered all the players together.

"Coming back to the Sacramento Kings, that's something I'm familiar with, and the team brought me back just to do one thing, and that's ...... Win! ”

Speaking of this, Adelman paused slightly, and then continued: "So, everything we have to do is only in the service of one thing, and that is to win the game!" I hope that's what all of us want to do in the future, and I want the team to have the culture and atmosphere from today to do our best to win every game. ”

'We've got a lot of good players, we've got great talent from our players, so I'm sure it's not a difficult thing to do. Of course, my coaching staff and I will help you show that talent in the game......"

After a word of encouragement, Adelman slowed down and said, "We've had a great holiday season over the last few months, so we're going to have an intra-team match, and I want to see how everyone performs, and of course, more importantly, I want to tell everyone, guys, it's over!" ”

"Oh God, is the game starting?"

Immediately after Adelman finished speaking, some Kings players muttered that it was clear that they were not ready for the game when they first arrived at training camp, even if it was only an intra-team match.

Adelman is of course aware that this is only the first day of training camp and that many people are not getting into the groove, however, he still chose to go straight to the intra-team game rather than practice his tactics first. Adelman is new to this Kings team, but he also knows that the team has completely lost the winning culture in the past few seasons, and what he needs is to develop the competitive spirit of the players as soon as possible and stimulate the players' desire to win. In Adelman's opinion, at this stage, this is more important than tactics.

And the best way to motivate a player is to play, to compete in the game.

"Next we split the team, and the white jerseys are DeMarcus, Tyrek, Jason, Andre, ......"

Adelman read the names one by one, and everyone on the team knew that the white jersey that Adelman was now referring to was his own initial starting lineup, and it was very likely that he would start the regular season. So when everyone heard that Iguodala entered the white team, it was not surprising, after all, whether it was fame or strength, Iguodala pressed Thorton.

After Adelman read four names, Thomas waited for Adelman to read his name so he could change into a white jersey.

However, Isiah Thomas then discovered that Adelman finally pronounced the name of the last player on the white team, but it was not himself, but ......

"Lee!"

"What?" The smile on Isaiah Thomas's face froze instantly, and he looked up in surprise and looked at Rick Adelman, who even wondered if he had heard it wrong?

Li Tian was also slightly stunned, but quickly reacted, and walked out to change into a white training uniform amid Robinson's giggling.

At this moment, Li Tian was undoubtedly a little excited, and he didn't know why Adelman would make such an arrangement. However, the fact that you were placed on the same team as the starters on the first day of training camp is enough to say a lot. Regular season starters? As long as you're in good shape in training camp, it doesn't seem far off.

"Is that the Chinese kid?" At this time, Isiah Thomas finally reacted, and he looked at Adelman and Li Tian with a face full of disbelief.

Just now, Thomas was still taunting Li Tian, thinking that the other party would no longer be favored under the new head coach, but now, Li Tian was temporarily arranged into the starting lineup? Moreover, it was Thomas himself who was squeezed out!

Such a psychological gap is so great that Thomas's face is so ugly and ugly at this time.

At the same time, almost all the Kings players looked at Thomas, except for a few new players such as Iguodala, the rest of the players were very clear about the discord between Li Tian and Thomas, so after seeing that Li Tian actually squeezed Thomas into the starting lineup, they couldn't help but want to see what kind of reaction Thomas had.

Feeling everyone's eyes on him, Thomas's face became more and more gloomy, and in his opinion, these eyes were full of mockery, sympathy, and schadenfreude......

"Damn!" Although Thomas didn't scold, he kept bursting with foul language in his heart.

At this time, there are indeed many different meanings in the eyes of Thomas, such as purely watching the excitement, and there are happy and mocking like Robinson, before Thomas found Li Tian and said every word Robinson listened to in his ears, at this moment, Robinson almost couldn't help laughing.

"I think I think Lee will no longer be loved by the coach, but now, even the starters are Lee's, this guy's heart may be dripping blood."

Thinking of this, Robinson felt so amused, and even felt a little regretful: "I really should have let more people hear what I just said." ”

Li Tian had already walked out of the team at this moment to change clothes, and he happened to walk to Thomas's side at this time.

The atmosphere in the arena also seemed to be affected at the moment, and everyone remained silent, looking at Li Tian and Thomas. Adelman did not continue to talk about the other team's roster, but looked at Li Tian and Thomas like the players, and seemed to know something.

When he came to Thomas's side, turned his head sideways, and saw Thomas's face as black as ink, the corners of Li Tian's mouth raised slightly.

That smile fell in the eyes of Thomas, who was looking at Li Tian, so that Thomas's pupils couldn't help but constrict, his fists clenched involuntarily, gritting his teeth and staring at Li Tian, that look, it seemed that he wanted to bite Li Tian directly.

After seeing Thomas's appearance, Li Tian smiled more and more happily, and even didn't forget to throw a provocative look at Thomas, and then said in an extremely friendly-sounding voice:

"Isaiah, I'm going to change my clothes first!"

If Thomas hadn't come to provoke himself just now, Li Tian might have chosen to keep a low profile at this time and not stimulate the other party, but since the other party took the initiative to provoke first, and fell a big heel fight in front of him, he naturally didn't mind stepping on it again.

“FU*CK！” Thomas felt that he was blown up, aggrieved, embarrassed, angry, and puzzled, and his heart was filled with all kinds of negative emotions.

"Wear a black uniform, Isaiah ......" At this moment, Adelman's voice rang out again.

Finally heard his name, which made Thomas even more stimulated, and kept taking a deep breath, Thomas stared at Li Tian who walked by, and shouted in his heart: "In the game, I will definitely kill you!" I'm going to let the old man know that I'm the best defender on the team. ”

At this time, Isaiah Thomas and Adelman also hated each other.

It's just that Thomas obviously doesn't know that after this summer, Li Tian has made a lot of progress, kill Li Tian? He couldn't do it before, but now he ......
