Li Ming arrived at the stadium early in the morning, and he was not yet able to participate in the internal five-on-five confrontation training, so he could only practice alone by the side.

He was the first to arrive at the arena today, and just when he was proud of it, Conley walked in with a towel on his head, it turned out that Conley was training in the equipment room downstairs, and did not arrive at the arena first.

So, the first to arrive was still McConley.

"Your ankle shouldn't be able to do weight-bearing exercises and confrontation exercises right now."

"Well, the team doctor's opinion says that you can't do confrontation training for a week." Li Ming looked at the man in front of him who scored 31 points, 13 assists, and 7 rebounds in the last game against the 76ers.

"Then maybe Leonel won't put you on the activation list in the next game." Conley looked a little worried.

Yes, the team will fly to Orlando next against the Magic. Although the Magic team has been rotten since Howard left, after all, the talent is there, and it is still very impactful.

In particular, the team's No. 1 position still has a short guard like Nelson. That's exactly what Conley hates the most, because he doesn't compete with speed, and he's always trying to pull you into his rhythm.

Conley isn't really afraid of speed guards like Brooks or Rose, he's confident in his speed. But he's annoyed with the sturdy No. 1 position that grinds the position at a slow pace.

Miller Sr. of the Nuggets and Nelson, who is about to face, both belong to this type.

Li Ming stood near the baseline for some slow-paced running, he was testing the force on his ankle, to speak, the NBA team doctor is still very responsible, Li Ming's current situation should be able to play as long as he fixes two more layers of straps, he almost didn't feel any tingling.

Conley, on the other hand, was spinning around the free-throw line for a half-volley, and he had taken off his shirt to show off his muscles.

After shooting a three-pointer for half an hour, Li Ming began to sit on the sidelines and watch Conley shoot.

Conley is supposed to be an obsessive-compulsive person who makes every shot perfectly, even if he practices on his own.

The angle of the shot is not good, the force of receiving the ball is too great, and the center of gravity is unstable...... Li Ming even suspected that he would have to do it all over again if he tied his shoelaces first.

After about forty minutes, Conley finally got tired and lay down on the weighbridge to rest.

There were neat footsteps in the arena, Randolph and Guy and others arrived, Li Ming counted, counting Conley's 13 people, and even Kenyon Dulin and Bombsett, who usually have almost no chance to play.

It's strange that the team practice together isn't in the afternoon, and it's just watching the video of the game.

It turned out that this was Conley's head, and the players organized training spontaneously, just a series of exercises to strengthen the tacit understanding.

Soon, everyone was on the field, and the starting five played against the sparring five.

The sparring five are point guard Kenyon Durin, scoring guard Bayless, small forward E-Pondset, power forward Austin Dayer, and center Haddadi.

The starting five will not be introduced.

Marc Gasol, who was unavailable, was in charge of blowing the whistle.

Jump ball, Randolph dials in.

"Rudy, go to the right." Conley commanded as he quickly passed the half.

Li Ming really admires his physical strength, he is simply a monster, and he still has the strength to play after practicing for so long.

"Hey, Rudy, you're going to face me, I'm not a second-rate striker who you're casually withholding." Austin Deye is also a tiger general, and he has a lot of power in the next game.

Guy's shot after the half-turn was effortlessly blocked by him.

"Oh, it's okay." Guy's desire to survive began to slowly arouse his teammates, and he kept asking for the ball to single Deye.

"Go, go, pull the side, don't fight him, let the ball pass, kill the game with the pass." These were the words shouted by Durin from the sparring party.

Li Ming's truce allowed him to get nearly 20 minutes of playing time in the last game, scoring 8 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, and performing in a decent manner, and Hollins was also happy with him.

After a while, Haddadi fell to the ground, signaling that he could not continue, and replaced Piedman.

"Cut." Li Ming knew that Haddadi was mostly pretending, because he knew that no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to get a chance to play, and his pace was too slow and too easy to be targeted.

Pitman is also a fringe player, having been drafted by the Heat that year as a stocky forward from the University of Texas. With a height of 2.08, he plays center and has rough hands, so he hardly gets any playing time.

A lot of times Hollins will rotate Arthur and Randolph because Arthur has the footwork and can keep up with the opposing small guard when changing defenses.

Li Ming watched quietly from the sidelines, constantly storing the information of his teammates in his brain.

"Hey, Quincy, didn't you eat? My grandma is faster than you. "Bayless kept urging Bombsett to go to the basket.

Poundset gave him a blank look, as if to say: You come and try squeezing with a 300-pound fat man, can you use all the strength of Lao Tzu's milk!

On the other hand, the main side is mainly based on running, practicing various playing styles, and is not so persistent about winning and losing, there are many good cooperations, but there are also many mistakes.

Guy even tried to dunk 360 degrees at high speed in the crowd and was relentlessly fanned.

These substitutes can be regarded as seizing the opportunity to vent their anger, and they are playing very hard.

"Mike!" Randolph shouted to everyone, and Conley took off at high speed in the crowd, and an exploding flat-frame dunk drew cheers.

Durin here followed closely and also came to a small two-on-two with Bayless, and Durin threw the board to score points.

'You've got to go up, don't be scared to fight, you've got to go up, put pressure on the ball, a little more pressure, don't let him take it through the half.' Conley directs his teammates to defend.

Yes, when an outside player is defending, especially when the opposing defender is dribbling the ball across the half, he must put a little pressure on the player at the right time.

It's crucial not to let them take it to the front court in stride, not to let them play at their own pace.

This will affect the defensive motivation of teammates in the next few rounds, because it is difficult for an outside player to hold down once he has his hand open.

The pressure on your teammates will suddenly increase in the following rounds, and your team's offense will also be affected, a bit like the interlocking in the butterfly effect.

No, as soon as he finished speaking, Durin calmly threw in a long-range three-pointer.

"Give me the ball and I'll organize." Guy stepped forward to ask for the ball, while Conley went for an off-ball run to play his shooter instincts.

In fact, Conley's long-range shooting percentage is still very high, and at the upper level of the league, it is only the offensive attack of the tandem team that consumes most of his physical strength.

Sometimes, when Tony Allen is off the court, he is also responsible for marking the opponent's arrowheads, such as Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade and other top attackers.

Sometimes, Conley can even be pushed down to the No. 3 position to defend luxury attackers like Carmelo Anthony in a small lineup, so the pressure is on him.

It's not uncommon to play a game for 40 minutes.

Guy has the ability to hold the ball in the No. 3 position and can also connect the team's offense, but he is not as calm as Conley in the selection of shooting opportunities, and always has to fall into the trap of the opponent and choose the single mode.

So, out of all the players, Guy was the one who was scolded the most by Hollins.

"Zach, you're going to have to come out a little bit more, it's not easy to catch the ball in that position."

Randolph raised the ball a little and turned to score with an easy little toss.

Here, Du Lin immediately sent the baseline ball quickly, wanting to hit the opponent with an unstable foothold and sneak attack. It's a pity that the shot under the basket was ruthlessly fanned away by Conley.

After a while, the little prince Prince Prince also arrived, and his arrival made the sparring lineup cheer.

The latecomer is the spiritual leader in the locker room, and the rookies are happy to spin around behind his ass.

After all, his status in the rivers and lakes is there.

Prince was not in a hurry to play, but directed his teammates to run on the side, and the most shameless thing about this thing was to direct both sides of the run at the same time, and directly looked at Li Ming on the side.

"Wow grass, I haven't spoken yet, he's too shameless. "Li Ming covered his mouth and was happy alone.

Soon Gasol blew the whistle and the two sides rested and continued to discuss tactics.

"Don't look like this when you reach out for the ball, just shake your hands." Randolph pulled Arthur aside and kept on demonstrating.

"You have to stand firm, half-squat, preferably leaning on the other person's body, with one hand raised high and the other hand between the other person and yourself, making the appearance of being ready to turn around at any time."

Arthur listened attentively and kept nodding his head, and Randolph pulled Guy in again, asking Arthur to step aside, looking at himself and Guy asking for the ball, how to let Arthur come by himself a few more times.

On the other side, Conley and Bayless were discussing something passionately, and Durin stood aside, crossed his waist, interjecting from time to time.

Li Ming can only listen to a rough idea, that is, when doing blocking and dismantling on the line, if it is two small guards, how to choose, whether to throw down or jump to the three-point line to shoot.

It's basically like this, and I can't hear it anymore.

Because, the others are not idle, either practicing bare-chested and desperately, or listening attentively to the guidance of their predecessors.

Even Gasol, who has a foot injury, is showing off his footwork and defense to the rookies.

After more than an hour of offensive and defensive drills, everyone was tired and sweaty, and sat down on the floor, only Conley was still alone to practice three points.

One, two, three, with the sound of "brush, brush", his shooting feel silky as before, and he didn't look like he was physically exhausted.

"This thing is really not an earthling, and this physical strength is too terrifying." Li Ming's favor for Conley has increased again.
