"But you can't, Kevin."

Martial arts' words didn't make Garnett angry, and when he decided to go back to the lounge, he had already made a decision in his heart.

The Timberwolves are a young team, and so far, the team has an excellent record, and the composition of the players is quite strong except for the bench lineup, which is quite strong overall.

Garnett is very young, and he only entered the league two years earlier than Wudao, and now that the management of the Timberwolves has given him a big contract at the level of a star player, Garnett feels that playing in the Timberwolves is not an unacceptable thing.

Although the martial arts are very crazy, Garnett also has to admit that the martial arts are very strong.

He will not be naïve to think that the strength of martial arts is because the Timberwolves have equipped martial arts with some system and given martial arts enough ball possession.

In fact, until now, the Timberwolves have not had any offensive system built around martial arts. Only a very small part of Takemichi's scoring on the court is obtained through running, through tactical pressure, and more on his own strong singles ability.

Garnett recognized the ability of the martial arts, and now he has also accepted the situation that the martial arts are faintly pressing him.

Honor, as long as there is honor.

He's an inside player, and he and Martial Arts aren't on the same track!

"You can't do it, you only know when you do it, don't you?"

"You'd better keep your spirits up, Mr. Wolf King."

"I'll watch you."

Garnett stretched out two fingers, nodded towards Martial Dao, and said.

The NBA, in a way, is a completely dark forest. Strong people will naturally be able to gain more attention, receive honor, harvest money, and harvest power.

Jordan, for example, can easily influence the decisions of the team's management.

But players don't always be able to maintain their level, human beings, they get older.

When Jordan in his twilight years makes his last comeback, will Kobe's young men keep him because Jordan is older?

No, what the young players want is to pull Jordan down on that god seat and sit on it themselves.

The Timberwolves are a team, just like its name, and the players here are eyeing the so-called wolf kings.

Even if it is Chris Kyle, the little licking dog of the martial arts, he supports the martial arts now only because the martial arts are strong enough, and when the martial arts show fatigue one day, he will definitely stick out his fangs on the martial arts.

Young Chris Kyle is like that, not to mention the young and capable Garnett, Marbury and others.

They either remained silent in this battle for the "team boss", or they were vaguely on the side of the martial arts, not because they were not interested in the name of "team boss".

It's just because the martial arts are strong enough to deserve this position.

"Good!"

"Players, just talk with the ball."

Regarding Garnett's attitude, Martial Arts only smiled. Isn't it normal for the wolf king among the wolves to encounter some challenges from time to time? Just defeat the challenger, it's a simple thing!

After the game against the Lakers, the Timberwolves had a day off.

Their next game will be at home to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Minnesota.

Now the knights of Cleveland have not yet ushered in their "emperor". But this Cavaliers has one of the best interior players in the league, "Rain Man" Sean Kemp.

The opponent is a team with a strong interior line, and this season "Rain Man" Sean Kemp joined the Cavaliers, and the Cavaliers have also rebuilt and strengthened around the Rain Man.

In 10 games at the start of the season, the Cavaliers had a 4-6 record.

It's not on the same level as the Timberwolves' 9-1.

But Garnett took this game very seriously, and on the day of the break, he practiced shooting for a long time in the arena.

The Knights, who have a strong interior line, put a lot of pressure on Garnett.

Of course, the pressure from the opponent is one thing, and some of the pressure on Garnett's body actually comes from martial arts.

He wants to play an excellent performance on the court and overpower the martial arts, and only in this way can the rumors of the outside world be a little smaller.

Garnett doesn't want to be identified as a "second-in-command" by the fans if he can, and he wants to struggle a bit.

During the regular season, Wudao showed considerable concentration, like today, which can be regarded as a one-day window period for the regular season, Wudao did not waste his precious time, after eating breakfast and sleeping a night, he came to the arena at about ten o'clock.

In the morning, I practiced shooting with Garnett and some of the hard-working players, ate at noon, and after a short rest, I returned to the arena for some adaptation training.

During the regular season, Wudo eliminated a lot of high-intensity physical training and strength training from his training plan. The focus of his training is on footwork, dribbling and shooting.

Although he was able to get the strain recovery potion from the system through some exercises every day, Wu Dao still cherished his body, and even with the help of this potion, his training was controlled within a certain range.

I came to the stadium at half past two in the afternoon and practiced until six o'clock, when Wu Dao and his teammates left the stadium and went to eat.

Many NBA players have a very bad life, but this situation is still better for young players.

Young players have more or less expectations for their careers and don't indulge themselves at such times.

Another reason is the problem of the team's atmosphere, after yesterday's "locker room turmoil", martial arts in the hearts of the Timberwolves, the position has been completely consolidated, after all, the stinky Garnett and the outstanding old-timer Tom didn't say anything more.

These "juniors", or marginalized veterans, do they need to say anything?

The atmosphere of the team will be on par with the team boss many times, the boss is diligent in training and has a strong fighting spirit, and other players will follow the same example, which will be affected to some extent.

When the Timberwolves players were training spontaneously, team coach Philip was also watching from the sidelines and accompanying the players. More often than not, he reads all kinds of sports news and sports newspapers on the sidelines, and pays close attention to public opinion.

The post-game interview after their game with the Lakers yesterday has turned into a report, and what the fans will respond to after hearing Takemi's remarks Philip is still unclear, and he only hopes that Timberwolves fans will not denounce Takemichi as a young man.

Treat others as you please.

At least Philip didn't really like Martial Dao's sharp speech yesterday.

There are still some die-hard Timberwolves fans, and many of them are Tom and Garnett. It's not for nothing that Tom was able to be brought close to the All-Star bench before!

Late November.

What occupies the basketball page of the media is basically the NBA game. Only some NFHS games were reported, and in mid-November, the National High School Basketball Association holiday tournament, or American high school, officially began.

So far, the NFHS has only played a few games, and there are no talented players who have been hyped up.

Coach Philip flipped through the mess of various newspapers, and he flipped through the newspapers as a modern person swiping Tik Tok, just wanting to see the topics he was interested in.

"Huh?"

"Oak Hill Academy's two straight losses at the start of the season?"

"This school has no martial arts, is it just like this all of a sudden?"

"It shouldn't be!"

Flipping through the pages, Coach Philip saw a news item that he was interested in in a newspaper a few days ago.

Oak Hill High School is the alma mater of martial arts and a well-known school in the United States. When Takeshi was still playing at Oak Hill High School before, the team didn't even have any defeats.

Unexpectedly, the members of the martial arts team had just left, and Oak Hill High School suddenly became so pulled.

"The rout of yellow players, not every yellow race is called martial arts!"

In the middle of the newspaper, a striking subheadline fell into the eyes of Coach Philip, who saw a picture of a young man with a stubborn footprint, standing in the middle of the field in frustration.

The young man was handsome, wearing the No. 10 jersey of Oak Hill, and his face was full of confusion.

The black and white newspaper can't tell the hair color of the No. 10 player, but when he saw the face in the photo, Coach Philip suddenly felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere?

"Coach, what are you looking at?"

"So obsessed?"

At this moment, Chris Kyle suspended his training and walked to the sidelines to rest, and when he saw Coach Philip looking at the newspaper a little distracted, he approached him and asked curiously, his eyes also looking towards the newspaper.

"Huh?"

"Isn't this guy our boss's teammate?"

At this moment, Chris Kyle suddenly pointed to the photo, the figure in it, and said with a smile. His title for martial arts has also been replaced by the more intimate "boss". Although Chris Kyle is older than Martial Arts, when he calls Martial Arts the boss, he doesn't feel awkward at all, but is unusually smooth.

"A martial arts teammate?"

"Well, it should be."

"This player is also from Oak Hill High School, and it's normal to be a teammate of martial arts, I said, how do you feel like I've seen it somewhere."

"Maybe it was a few glances when I watched the Oak Hill tape in the early years."

"Oak Hill High School has a bad start, without martial arts, their NFHS league this year, I'm afraid it will be difficult to play."

Hearing Chris's words, Philip was also relieved and said with a smile.

"Oak Hill?"

"How could it be Oak Mountain?"

"This kid was the boss's teammate when he played in high school in Asia, and the boss had pictures of their team in his closet."

"I've asked that before."

"What do you think it's called?"

Hearing this, Philip looked stunned, turned his head to look at Chris Kyle, and asked suspiciously, "A teammate when you played in Asia?" ”

"At Oak Hill?"

"Ugh"

As he spoke, Philip's gaze also swept to the eye-catching subheading, and he touched his chin:

"Looks like it's really Asian."

"Oak Mountain dug up the martial arts before, tasted the sweetness, and went to the high school in Asia to find treasures again?"

"It's true."

"If Bao was so easy to find, there would have been countless yellow players in the NBA."

Philip muttered in his mouth and looked at the martial arts who were practicing three-point shooting in the middle of the court.

"Hey—"

"Boss—"

"Excuse me, I saw something interesting!"

Just as Philip was thinking, Crick Kyle, who had noticed the newspaper picture, turned his head and shouted into the middle of the pitch.

The title of "Boss" spread throughout the court, Garnett and Martial Arts, who were training in the field, turned their heads in unison, Garnett saw that Chris was waving to Martial Arts, and couldn't help but snort coldly and continued to pick up the ball and practice.

"I'm sorry, let's all rest for a while."

And Wu Dao saw Chris greeting him, and he also threw the ball to the trainer, and after saying sorry, he went to the sidelines.

Seeing Wu Dao coming, Chris took the newspaper out of Philip's hand with a "reluctance", walked to Wu Dao with the newspaper like a treasure, pointed to the newspaper and Wu Dao and said:

"Boss, look at this person, is this your teammate in high school!"

"Just like you, Asian!"

Looking at Chris's dedication-like attitude, Philip gave Chris a blank look, and then couldn't help but sigh lightly, stood up, and walked to the bathroom.

Wu Dao took the newspaper with his hand, and without using Chris's fingers, he saw the photo in the middle of the newspaper at a glance.

"Sakuragi Hanamichi?!"

"This kid is coming to the United States so soon? Still making a name for yourself in Oak Hill? ”

Wu Dao had some doubts in his heart, and then swept to the contents of the newspaper.

Sakuragi Hanamichi entered Oak Hill High School, Martial Arts was unaware, and foreign calls couldn't even reach Sakuragi's house these days, and Martial Arts generally contacted Coach Anzai, and inquired about Sakuragi and others through Coach Anzai.

Before the start of the NBA's regular season, from the beginning of the team's training camp, Takeshi had not contacted Coach Anzai, and it was only today that he saw Sakuragi's information through the newspaper.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually came to the United States and went to Oak Mountain.

According to the original plan of Coach Anzai and Martial Arts, Sakuragi will come to study at the university level.

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes.

As Coach Philip had predicted, the management of Oak Hill High School became keen to find talented players in Asia after tasting the sweetness of martial arts, a yellow player.

In the first half of the year, Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede teamed up to lead Xiangbei to win the IH championship for a second time, and after that, Oak Hill High School had already noticed Sakuragi Hanamichi.

Compared with Rukawa Kaede, Sakuragi Hanamichi's talent is more attractive to the coaching staff of Oak Mountain.

The team in Xiangbei is also the alma mater of martial arts, so after a simple negotiation, the management used some means to bring Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was a junior in high school, to the United States.

It's just that after Sakuragi Hanamichi came to the United States, he showed some unadaptability.

Sakuragi himself is too anxious, Oak Hill High School is also too anxious, Sakuragi's English level in the third year of high school is very average, there are some obstacles to communication with teammates, and on the court, the performance between teammates is quite incompatible.

Such a team, in the high-level American high school arena, can win, there is a ghost.

Wu Dao briefly glanced at the news a few times, and after getting a general understanding, he threw the newspaper aside, turned around and returned to the court, and continued his training.

For Sakuragi, at this stage, Martial Arts has no intention of getting involved, his own position in the team has just been stabilized, and there is still a long way to go.

Of course, the main reason is that Martial Arts believes in Sakuragi, Sakuragi is a detached personality and a talkative.

After Oak Hill was "dominated" by martial arts, the team's tolerance for yellow players was greatly improved, and Sakuragi's personality was easily able to overcome the difficulties in front of him.

The problem of not adapting to the soil and water will appear on Tanizawa's body, but it will not appear on Sakuragi's body.
