"Don't you have any other ideas?"

David Falke said with a smile that he felt a little bad when he heard that the Timberwolves paid a lot of money to sign Mike James from the Rockets, which was not the same as the Timberwolves promised him.

"What do you think I should think, but I heard KG say it's a request from the new head coach Devin Casey who is about to take over."

Hearing Linsen's words, David Falke frowned, although the Timberwolves have no obligation to tell him about the new head coach, but this is not a haode signal, even if McHale likes Linson again, but after all, it is the general manager and not the head coach who has the most direct impact on the players.

David Falke is a little worried about the Timberwolves' change of coach.

"I'll contact McHale to see, you just have to play with peace of mind, and I'm sure as long as you play well, nothing else is a problem."

"Well, David, I'm sorry for you." Lin Sen hung up.

Although McHale is the interim head coach, he also has a better opinion of McHale, and it is not known what the incoming Devin Casey will be like.

On September 26, this is the day the Timberwolves' new season training camp begins.

Linson met with new head coach Devin Casey and all of his teammates at the Timberwolves.

The first day of training camp was a simple remarks by new coach Devin Casey and general manager Kevin McHale, as well as a brief announcement to everyone about the Timberwolves' goal for the new season - to get back to the playoffs.

From the second day, the training camp officially began.

"Wood, could your passing be a little more earthy?" Devin Casey's voice rang out on the training ground again.

Lin Sen frowned and raised his hand in apology.

Just now he was dribbling with his back to Mike James at the top of the arc, and he caught a glimpse of Eddie Griffin having a clear space behind Garnett, so Linson passed the ball straight over.

With Linson at the top of the arc with his back to the basket, the pass was so unexpected that Eddie Griffin didn't react when the ball passed through Garnett to him.

Directly causing the ball to pop out of bounds.

Devin Casey frowned, the individual ability of this No. 6 pick is really good in his opinion, McHale's choice is not inappropriate, but there are still too many things to improve in his personal play, and he believes that as long as Lin Sen is willing to listen to him, he will definitely achieve a lot in the future.

The one-hour training match ended quickly, and it was the first time that Lin Sen participated in the team-wide match.

"Wood, come with me." Devin Casey looked up at Lin Sen and said.

Lin Sen nodded and followed.

"Arrogant rookie." Ricky Davis said dismissively.

In his opinion, Lin Sen must be a bloody dog who will be scolded, and most of Devin Casey's accusations in the training just now were given to this rookie.

"Wood, you have the talent to be a star player, I don't think anyone can deny that, but you have to change your style of play, don't you think your ideas are sometimes too frustrating for your teammates? You should know that sometimes a mistake can be fatal for a team. Devin Casey looked at Lin Sen in front of him and said.

Lin Sen had a headache but nodded politely: "Coach, I understand, I will try to correct it." ”

"Mike is a veteran player, there is no doubt about the strength, learn from him, this is your beginning, as long as you start well, then the rest will be much smoother, you should know how many people are looking forward to seeing your jokes, I think you definitely don't want to do that, so you have to put in more effort."

Devin Casey said earnestly, he wanted to see Linsen's side.

The first game of the Timberwolves' preseason season is not until October 11, and the Timberwolves will be at home to take on the Milwaukee Bucks.

Until then, the Timberwolves' training camp had been centered around consolidating the roster, although the roster had not changed much.

However, there are only four authentic guards in the guard line, and they also have to share the two positions of playmaking guard and scoring guard.

However, in addition to Linson, Mike James, who was signed in the offseason, Ricky Davis, who performed well last season, and Marco Jarric, who was signed with a six-year, 40 million contract the year before, have no problem starting.

Ricky Davis was unquestionable last season, and Mike James played well with the Raptors, but Linson was a key target in the team's uniform team, and Jarric's poor performance last season disqualified him from starting the game.

But for these three, Devin Casey doesn't know who to start.

In training, he also saw that Ricky Davis and Linson did not get along, and the two of them played together very poorly.

Mike James and Ricky Davis looked better on the court, but they were both offensive to second passes, and while the two played good stats, the team's offense was not good.

The combination of Linson and Mike James works well, but the key problem is that Mike James and Linson are not tall either, and such a backcourt partnership will put the team's backcourt defense at an absolute disadvantage.

One of Devin Kessie's main tasks in the half-month training camp was to debug the back line.

October 9 is just one day away from the first game of the preseason.

After training, Devin Casey called Garnett to his office.

"What do you think of Wood?" Devin Casey asked, looking at Garnett.

"Which aspect, you ask? Physicality or skill or potential? ”

"It's not the right fit for the team."

Garnett smiled wryly: "At the moment, he still needs to work hard to adapt to the team, but it's not bad, but his ones don't seem to us to be used to him correcting too much, which I think you can also see." ”

'Yes, I've talked to him before, but I find that sometimes it's too constrained and he's playing badly, so I'm just reminding him sometimes and not always complaining about his actions, he's the kind of player who needs passion and he obviously makes him less interested in the game and thus affects the team. Devin Casey was a little helpless.

"yes, I'm surprised by that, but at least he's had a little bit less bad off the pitch during this time, and maybe that's progress." Kevin Garnett said with a smile.

Two days later, at half past six in the evening, in the home locker room of the target center.

'Tonight was our first game of the season and even though it was just a pre-season, I think it's the start of the new season, the start of going all out and hitting our goals, so I don't think a pre-season is not worth taking seriously. Devin Casey's eyes swept over each of the team.

"Our goal is the playoffs, what I need is an attitude from everybody, an attitude towards the game, and I hope that from tonight I can see that every single one of you is working hard for the new season, and the Timberwolves need serious people." Devin Casey picked up the list.

"Starting Kevin, Mark, Trenton, Ricky tonight......" Devin Casey looked up at Mike James and Linson, "Mike." ”

Hearing Devin Casey's words, Lin Sen was a little surprised and even dissatisfied, but there was no expression on his face.
