The door of the training ground of the "Bang ......" Conseco Arena was pushed open, and a tall peach, but slightly thin young man, carrying his own bag and wearing a relatively shabby clothes, walked into the stadium slowly.

"He's coming...... "All the people who were training in the Conseco Arena looked at this 'intruder' who suddenly broke in.

Even the head coach who was sitting next to the players and thinking about the lineup next season felt a little surprised because of the appearance of this guy.

"Zhang Kong?" Looking at the person in front of him, an assistant coach next to him asked in a low voice, listening to the assistant coach's words, the intruder stopped, then put the bag aside, and took off the hood that had been buckled on his head, revealing a familiar face, it was none other than Zhang Kong. Looking at the person next to him, Zhang Kong nodded, and then left.

"This guy is really arrogant!" TJ Ford, who was on the court, watched Zhang Kong come here and said with some surprise.

"It's like, this guy is definitely not a good guy." Blanton Rush next to him also whispered.

Because of Zhang Kong's arrival, with his defensive intensity and annual salary, he is unlikely to be put on the bench, and in the main position, he can't play inside, the third position Granger is the team's Peugeot, so he can't play the third position, that can only rotate in the first and second positions, now the first position is TJ Ford, the second position is Brandon Rush, and Mike Dunleavy is still injured.

So Zhang Kong came here to rob them of their playing time, no wonder they were unhappy with him.

"Hey, if you say bad things about him behind your back, you're not afraid that after it reaches his ears, he hacks your money?" At this time, Roy Hibbert, who entered the NBA with Brandon Rush for a year, ran to him and whispered, you must know that the Zhang Kong black gold incident is very famous in the United States, of course, this name is antithetical, after all, no one wants to be hacked, which is also a reputation for intimidation.

"Danny Granger, level 89, All-Star caliber player, strengths: tall and long arms, excellent running and jumping, accurate three-point shooting, skilled back play, clean defense, big heart, is an excellent player at the level of the all-Ming yesterday, surname Gwen is hardworking. Weaknesses: Too weak, lacking the momentum of a leader, can be a good player, but it is difficult to be a good boss. ”

"Mike Dunleavy, level 83, star-level player, specialty: extremely comprehensive offense, three-point, shooting, layup, breaking, dunking, omnipotent, speed, strength, physical fitness, is the first all-round player since Grant Hill, omnipotence does not mean omnipotence, offensive ability is very strong, and he can average 19.9 points in his peak season. Cons: Inherited Hill's all-round ability, but also inherited Hill's terrible physique, has been injured lately, and is still in the midst of injuries, and there is no way to play. ”

"Troy Murphy, level 81, star-level player, strengths: a lot of offensive means, as a big man who can shoot three-pointers, the offensive and defensive ability is relatively balanced, and can pass a good hand on the inside, has a good record in defensive rebounding, can contribute 14.3 points and 11.8 rebounds per game last season, and is also a regular in the double-double club. Disadvantages: The style of the ball is soft and easy to get hurt"

"TJ Ford, level 80, star-level player, strengths: extremely fast, explosive power, good control of the pace of the game, passing and shooting, in his rookie season, he was called by the AI as 'the only person in the league who is faster than me'. Disadvantages: The defensive end is relatively poor, and he was once smashed directly from the air by the mad dog Madsen, resulting in an injury now. ”

"Roy Hibbert, level 79, sophomore rookie, role player (growing), has the size and strength of a top center, has a soft touch, although physically not as good as those monsters under the basket, but has a good shooting skills, rebounding strong! Disadvantages: too little athleticism, no speed and explosive power, against tall or athletic inside, it will only become a wooden stake, the blocking technique is good, but because of the explosive force, there are not many blocks. ”

"Brandon Rush, a sophomore, level 78, role player (growing), advantages: good shooting level, high shooting point, decent and calm ball style, height and arm span are not at a loss, offense and defense are extremely balanced, basketball IQ is high, and combat power is good! Cons: I'm just an offensive finisher right now, I have poor dribbling ability, I can barely pass the ball, and my control of the tempo is too poor. ”

"Tyler Hansblu, a 13-year-old rookie this year, a Level 71 role player, has a strong style, is not afraid of any physical contact when attacking, has a certain ability to jump and throw, and has a decent offensive approach. Although he will not be a top player, he can be regarded as the main substitute, and his disadvantages: he is too short in height and his body needs to adapt to NBA-level confrontations. ”

This is the relevant information collected by Zhang Kong after the first day he arrived at the Conseco Arena, except for the seven of them, there is no one in the entire team with a level above 70, which means that these seven people will become the strongest lineup of the Pacers this year.

And in addition to these seven guys, the Pacers also have quite a few role players, such as Solomon Jones, Jeff Foster, Luther Hyde, Duddy Jones, Josh McRoberts, Rod Benson, AJ Price, Demitry Nichols, Lalens Roberts, Al Watson and Travis Deanna, plus Zhang Kong, the whole team has nineteen people.

So before the start of the season, they also need to determine a starting lineup for the new season, leaving about twelve or thirteen people, and the rest are either delegated or fired, of course, there may also be a few 'injuries', after all, Dunleavy and Murphy They can't play now, and can only rely on these people to play to support time.

Zhang Kong's time difference in the Pacers is still different from that in the Kings, but instead of reading novels and comics during training time, it has become training, although his training has ended, but he still needs to adapt to the training of his surname to adapt to his body.

It's good to completely open up the surname value, and now Zhang Kong's most hope is to reach level 60 as soon as possible, and then open the surname point above level 70, he already knows that the surname above level 70 can only add a little surname every two survival points.

As for why Zhang Kong knows, this is thanks to the perfect offensive card, the role of the perfect offensive card is that those with a shooting level below level 40 can all be added to forty, and those above forty can add ten points of surname, and these ten points of surname are changed according to the survival point, and now Zhang Kong's other fifty and forty levels of surnames have all been added with ten points, but only three points, only five points have been added.

Reached the level of 75, 75 level of three-point skills, in the training space, the shooting rate can reach about 70%, in the game time and space position can reach about 45%, in the case of defense can probably reach about 31%, plus 7% of the shooting finger guard, will also enter the 40 percent shooting rate, an outside line has nearly 40 percent shooting rate, not bad! Zhang Kong's current training is to familiarize himself with his three-point level as soon as possible, and this three-point and passing are not obtained through training, so Zhang Kong needs training to successfully integrate these two together.

Watching Zhang Kong practice passing and three-pointers there, Jim O'Brien's face was a little uncomfortable, this Zhang Kong also felt a little strange, he was cold, Jim O'Brien naturally knew this, and Larry Bird also said, don't interfere with Zhang Kong's training, except when talking about tactics, you don't need to call him to do the usual training.

For such a privileged player, all the managers will feel uncomfortable in their hearts, plus watching the training that Zhang Kong is doing now.

You do the three-point training yourself, then Jim has nothing to say, but your passing training is not quite right if you don't come with everyone, but because of Larry Bird's face, he can't call Zhang Kong over for a training now, and even if he does, Zhang Kong probably won't pay attention to him...... He'd heard about Zhang Kong's weird temper from his fellow traveler Kenny Knight.

"Hmph, you're so arrogant, then you just wait for the playing time!" Looking at Zhang Kong in front of him, Jim O'Brien is ready to punish him a little, anyway, the preseason is going to start recently, not counting in the main game, even if he is not allowed to play, if he loses, it will not cause any harm to the team, preseason and summer league, to put it bluntly, it is the time for the head coaches to rectify.

In the preseason game that started next, there was really nothing to do with Zhang Kong, and Zhang Kong had no interest in the preseason.

However, the Pacers played okay in the preseason, losing 95-104 to the Bulls at home, then 126-104 at home, 112-128 at home, then 119-104 at home to the Rockets, 96-108 to the Hornets on the road, 87-117 to the Magic on the road, and 114-112 at home to the Spurs in the last minute...... At the end of the seven preseason games, the Pacers ended their preseason journey with a record of 3 wins and 4 losses, and then they need to rest for a few days, on the 29th, they will fly to Atlanta to challenge the Hawks at home, and challenge the Hawks at the beginning of the season, which shows that the Pacers' schedule this year is not very good.

However, for Atalanta, it is still a very powerful thing to challenge the Hawks at home, not to mention that there is a guy in the Hawks who has practiced for a summer just to take revenge, Joe Johnson. Last season, he made Zhang Kong's education not light.

This summer, every time he practiced to the point where he was about to lose his strength, he would think of Zhang Kong, and he came this season with a sense of revenge!

But there is no nirvana, he can only stay at level 89 forever, and besides, Zhang Kong has no contract that can't let others score this year, he doesn't care! All he needed was victory. October 28, 2009 at 7 p.m.

The Phillips Arena in Atlanta, which can accommodate 19,445 people, is already full
