September 25, 2002, Boston, Celtics team training hall.

This is the day when Zhuang Fei and the Boston Celtics began to train and assemble for the season, and today Zhuang Fei also came to the team's training hall early in the morning, at the same time his assistant Stephen Green was also standing by his side, the head coach who led the Chinese team to win the seventh place in the World Championships this summer is now a little famous, although it is said that for Coach Z's assistant, a seventh place in the World Championships is nothing at all, it was really nothing in the past, that is because the American beauty eye is above the top, For them, they won't even look at the seventh place in the World Championships, or the second place in the World Championships.

But this year, because of the Dream Five team, this Stephen Green is often mentioned by the media, and the reason for mentioning him is to compare it with the American team, and the head coach of the Chinese team is disgusted with the Dream Five team, although the media's approach is very speechless, but it does make the head coach of the Chinese team popular, but at this time, the head coach of the Chinese team did not have any unusual look because of his popularity, but just stood beside Zhuang Fei with a frown.

"Coach, we have a lot of pressure this season, although our team is a completely different team in terms of cooperation compared to last season, but the situation of these people is not very good now, especially Jermaine and James will definitely be affected by the American team, and Yao Ming has adapted very well to the way of defending small ones. But it's still not enough, it's definitely a huge test for us" Stephen Green looked at the head coach next to him and sighed and said, although there has been no change in the Celtics' personnel this year, but it is difficult to know how competitive it can be, and the Celtics' situation has not been very good recently.

"Hey, if I had known this, I wouldn't have let James and Jermaine go to the U.S. team" Zhuang Fei also sighed after hearing Green's words. Although these two are not the leaders of the U.S. team, as part of the history of shame, these two are still 'attacked' by media fans. Although this kind of verbal attack is much worse than Ray Allen, the leader of the Dream Five, and George Carr, the head coach of the Dream Five, it also caused a lot of pressure on these two people, after the World Championships. Zhuang Fei was originally going to give these two players a period of vacation to adjust their mood, but in the end they were rejected by these two people, obviously these two people are very depressed now, and they don't have that kind of relaxed mood at all. In this case, Zhuang Fei can't guarantee how much state these two will bring to the team to report.

"In addition to their emotional aspect, they also have a problem with their fitness, for other people, their bodies are not on the same level as everyone else, they have just gone through a big game, and for the World Championships, their physical reserves started two months ago. At that time, the playoffs had just ended, and now they need to reserve physical strength again, if the players played easily and did not consume like the previous American team, it would be fine, but this tournament their consumption is also very large, and in addition to these two, Yao Ming and Kirilenko are also very hard. These four are absolutely important players in our team."

If you want to find a team from the NBA that has the most players in the World Championships, the Boston Celtics are definitely one of them, and this team has four players who will participate in this year's World Championships, and all four players are important players for this team. And there are players who are extremely expensive.

'We're going to adjust to the state of the team, what we need now is to get the thinking back on the right track, and now we need to set a target. Once the goal of being able to continue to let the team attack the championship," Zhuang Fei finally said with a sigh after hearing Stephen Green's words.

Zhuang Fei and Steve Green came very early, the two lived in the same place, and it was very close to the training hall, so when the two came to the stadium, none of the Boston Celtics players arrived, and it was not until the time came to half past six that the Boston Celtics players rushed in one by one, and this time point was much faster than the Boston Celtics designated nine o'clock in the morning training time.

For the Boston Celtics players, after last season's performance in Zhuang Fei's hands, most of the team is full of expectations for the new season, both for this year's results and for their own performance this year, even for the players of the United States team who have performed poorly at this year's World Championships, for them still hope to wash away the shame of being in the national team at the club.

After these Boston Celtics returned to the team, Zhuang Fei didn't see much unusual emotion on the faces of these players, James Posey and O'Neal Jr. looked just a little depressed between their eyebrows, while Yao Ming was a little heavy As for Kirilenko, the all-around striker hugged Steve Green as soon as he came in, he was Green's opponent at the World Championships, and the national team led by the Russian player lost to China in the battle for seventh place at this year's World Championships, Even in the group stage, they were overpressed by the Chinese team, who were third in the group and they were fourth in the group. However, after a brief spell as an enemy, the versatile forward is also looking forward to being on the same team with Green again.

In addition to these four people, others such as Maddie, Arenas and Jackson are still very good, which can be regarded as extremely normal.

After all the players arrived, Zhuang Fei first introduced the new Haslem and Prince and Matt Barnes to the three players who came to the Celtics last season, and these three players were obviously not comfortable with the first team training camp, in fact, the three rookies have been staying in the team to train in the summer, after all, for these three they have not yet determined their position in the NBA, and they still need to play a tough summer league, and in the summer league, these people are absolute big names with NBA contracts, But now, their teammates are not ordinary players who work hard to enter the NBA, and the three of them are also a little uncomfortable for a while, but after Zhuang Fei introduced these people, old players like Jackson and Arenas are also deliberately taking the initiative to seek communication with them, especially during the warm-up before training. It's clear that these Celtics players want these three future comrades to integrate into the group as soon as possible.

And it was at this time that the Boston Celtics' training camp officially began.

As the first day of the training camp, Zhuang Fei and Green arranged a lot of exercise in the training is not large, and it can even be said that it is a little small, for today's training, Zhuang Fei is also mainly based on testing, and all the players of the Boston Celtics will be tested after the start of the season, and then it is also to see what the condition of these players is

"How, what's the condition of these people"

In Zhuang Fei's chairman's office, Zhuang Fei looked at the team's assistant coach Green who came in from outside with a report expectantly and asked, in the morning, Zhuang Fei and Green gave the Celtics players a comprehensive physical test, and soon, the results came out at noon, for the Boston Celtics such a test has been taken for granted, and it was done a lot last season, so the physiotherapists and team doctors in the Celtics team are also extremely skilled.

"The condition is not bad, these people have no signs of fatigue now, and there is no problem with their physical fitness" Stephen Green looked at Zhuang Fei and said with a smile, and after finishing speaking, he also walked over and handed the report in his hand to Zhuang Fei.

The situation is indeed not bad, in fact, for Zhuang Fei, who has a dynasty system, he can have a general understanding of the condition of the players, but through such a test can obtain more accurate data, from the analysis of this report, Maddie, Jackson and Arenas, the players who trained by themselves in the summer are in excellent condition, and they have basically adjusted to the situation where they can play, whether it is the fat content or the thickness of the muscles, it can be seen that these people are not lazy in the summer, And veterans like Anderson and McCarty or sick seedlings are also not injured now, but McCarty still has some hidden dangers, but because of the arrival of Prince, the former veteran player of the Celtics, the positioning of the former veteran player will decline again in the new season, so some of his hidden dangers cannot shake anything for the Celtics.

The players who are most concerned about Zhuang Fei to participate in the World Championships are also in a very good situation, although they are much worse than Maddie, but there is still a month of adjustment period, Zhuang Fei is confident that he can adjust the situation of these people to the best in this month's adjustment period.

"It seems that our previous worries are a little right, we will have a good start, and there will definitely not be a situation like last season," Zhuang Fei put down the report in his hand and said with a smile to his assistant Stephen Green in front of him, and at this time the assistant also smiled and nodded, obviously he agreed with Zhuang Fei's statement

Zhuang Fei and his Boston Celtics have now started the hard season start training camp in the training hall, and for this team that aspires to win the championship, it is absolutely advantageous for the new season to have good reserves during the training camp, whether it is the Celtics or the defending champion Grizzlies or the Lakers and Spurs Kings, these teams have also started the most difficult training camp at this time.

It's just that unlike these teams, two other teams that are also aiming for the title have made a big deal at this time.
