Because the bounce became stronger and affected the shooting rhythm, Li Tian's plan to try a stop-and-go jump shot was interrupted, and for him, finding the feeling of shooting and catching the ball was more important than the stop-and-go jump shot, after all, in the game, shooting after running without the ball is still Li Tian's most important means of scoring.

However, at the last moment of training, Li Tian also tried a few emergency stop jump shots, as he imagined, the bounce improvement consequence he was more comfortable with the coherent action of the emergency stop jump, and the completion of the action was faster, but like the fixed-point shooting, he still needed to find the rhythm of shooting, and this matter was obviously not in a hurry.

After completing a morning's training, Li Tian was about to change his clothes and leave, when a figure appeared in front of Li Tian at this time.

"Hi, Lee, do you mind if I bother you for a few minutes?"

After seeing the visitor, Li Tianxia subconsciously frowned, Jason Jones, the reporter with the Kings, from the "Sacramento Bee".

As a well-known local media outlet, a lot of the news on the Kings team is covered by The Bee, so reporters like Jason Jones have more opportunities to reach out to the players.

Li Tian has also been interviewed by Jones several times in the past, but the revelation of "Bee" before the start of the season made Li Tian very unhappy, although the report was not reported by Jones, but it still made Li Tian's favorability of "Bee" decline.

Seeing Li Tian's thoughts, Jason Jones said with a slightly apologetic expression on his dark face: "Li, I know what you think, I'm sorry, I think I have to apologize for my colleague's one-sided report on you first." ”

Looking at Jones's apologetic expression, Li Tian's originally slightly frowning brows relaxed, shook his head and said, "It's okay, Jason, that's none of your business, I don't need you to apologize." ”

Li Tian also knows that where there are people, there will be competition, and that report was indeed not done by Jason Jones, so he did not blame Jones for this matter, in fact, Jason Jones is very good, and the relationship with the whole team of the Kings is very good, which Li Tian also has experience.

"Thank you for your forgiveness. Lee, can I disturb you for a few minutes? ”

Seeing Jason Jones ask again, Li Tian nodded and agreed, "Yes." ”

Hearing Li Tian's promise, Jason Jones immediately said happily: "That's really good, that's the case, everything is because of that report." I don't think my colleagues know you very well, but I know you've been working hard in Sacramento all summer, and it's no accident that you've been recognized by the team's management, so I wanted to write a follow-up story for you. ”

"Of course, that report won't come out now, maybe ten or twenty games from now, but before then, I'd like to know more about you."

Li Tian directly agreed after listening to it, such a report is only good for himself, there is no harm, such publicity is what any player needs, many times the player's agent will even take the initiative to find a reporter to do such a report, in the current era, the player's benefits, especially the commercial benefits, are obviously essential.

Of course, Li Tian also knows that the root of all this lies in the performance on the court, so he understands why Jason Jones said that such a report will be after ten or twenty games.

Because only Li Tian's performance in the past ten or twenty games has been stable and improved compared with last season, such a report is meaningful.

Jones mainly asked some questions about Li Tian's daily training plan and the like, which was not too difficult to answer, but in the end, Jones still turned the topic to the previous game.

"Lee, now there is a post on the Internet that says that there was a fan who verbally insulted you at that time, and then you made such an action, is this true?"

"Yes! If you can find the video and translate the person's lips, you'll find that. Li Tian nodded and said, of course, it would be best if the situation at that time could be restored and announced through the newspaper so that more fans would know.

It's just that what Li Tian didn't know was that someone had already sent out a video at that time, and now the fans are supporting him.

Jason Jones also saw this, so he immediately reminded: "We don't need lip translation, there are already fans who have uploaded the video recorded at that time, and the video of the fan did say a lot of indecent things." ”

"Oh, really?" Li Tian also felt a little surprised at this time, "This is really good news. ”

"yes, so you were just doing that to that player, right?" Jason Jones continued.

"Of course, I know most of the fans are lovely and they support me a lot, and during the game I heard a lot more cheers than boos, and I think the vast majority of the fans who booed didn't know what was going on at the time, so I didn't have any idea of complaining about them." Of course, Li Tian didn't mind saying something good at this time to comfort the fans present at the time, after all, although he was only targeting that person, there were still many fans sitting in that direction.

Jason Jones nodded and was about to end the interview, when his mobile phone rang, and he glanced at Li Tian with an apologetic expression, he quickly raised his head to look at Li Tian and asked, "Li, about your behavior last night, the alliance has made a penalty and fined 15,000 US dollars, do you have anything to say?" ”

"Oh, has the decision been made?" Li Tian said this, after a slight pause, he shrugged his shoulders and said in a self-deprecating tone: "I think after I receive 15,000 dollars less this year, the fans and those experts will be more satisfied." ”

"Haha!" Jason Jones was amused by Li Tian's words, "I think they will." ”

After saying goodbye to Jones, Li Tiancai really left the arena, returned to his residence and turned on the computer, he easily found the hot post that had been fired, and then looked at the time of the post, he knew that this should be Judy Annette's masterpiece, because it was not long after he ended the call with Judy Annette.

Smiling, Li Tian dialed Judy-Annette's phone.

"God?" The phone was connected, and Judy Annette's voice sounded a little confused.

"Judy, are you still sleeping?" Li Tian glanced at the time, it was close to noon, and couldn't help but say with some surprise.

"Well, those guys even questioned whether I was telling the truth or not, so I had to argue with them, but luckily someone finally uploaded a video, and I was finally able to sleep, well, it seemed to be early in the morning, I forgot what time it was, so sleepy."

Judy Annette's voice, which sounded like she would fall asleep at any time, reached Li Tian's ears, making Li Tian understand the general situation at the same time, a warm current surged from the bottom of his heart.

For the lethargic Annette, Li Tian couldn't imagine that she didn't sleep until the early hours of the morning, and all this was only because she was arguing with the other party in the post she had made for herself.

"Then, you go back to sleep." Li Tian said softly, and then hung up after hearing a slight answer from the phone, at this time, it was more appropriate to let Judy continue to sleep than to say anything.

After hanging up the phone and having lunch, Li Tian also entered the rest time, this morning of training made him consume a lot of physical strength, and in the afternoon, he also needed to participate in the team training arranged by Adelman, he needed to recover his physical fitness by resting.

Before participating in the team's training, Li Tian officially received a notice from the league that he would be fined $15,000 for giving the middle finger to the fans before the first game.

In the afternoon, the Kings had an in-team drill, and the coaching staff identified some of the team's problems exposed in the first game, and then made targeted adjustments in the team training, so that the Kings' players could better understand the tactics.

In fact, the Kings had a game just one day later, but because it was the beginning of the season and the players were mostly fit, Adelman was relatively more intensive in scheduling his training time. And after the run-in of the early training camp, the players are in the critical period of the run-in at this time, and making targeted adjustments in time is equally important for the king's next games.

Heading into November, the Kings have a game on their first day, and this game is still playing at home against the Denver Nuggets.
