Chapter 220: Infighting in the Wizards
After Arenas' provocative words fell, the entire training ground fell silent for a moment.
The rest of the Wizards, after being stunned for a second, quickly blocked up to separate Li Kaiming and Arenas to prevent a conflict.
Coach Sanders is even more confused, he is a coach who is not good at dealing with the internal relationship of the team, so at this moment, seeing Li Kaiming and Arenas suddenly have a conflict, he is naturally a little overwhelmed.
Sanders held back for a while, but finally said, "Gilbert, what's going on?" ”
This made the rest of the Wizards a little embarrassed, you are not only old-hearted, but your eyes are not very good at present, do you need to ask what's going on?
However, after Sanders blurted out the stupid words just now, he also realized that something was wrong, and immediately walked up and asked the rest of the team to control the two of them first.
Li Kaiming stood calmly behind his teammates, and basically everyone else stood in front of him, and the meaning of protecting him was obvious.
Only a few old men who were on the team before, after seeing that the situation was under control, went to Arenas's side and asked him to calm down first.
Arenas saw that he hadn't returned to the team for half a month, and after the conflict, most people actually stood on Li Kaiming's side for the first time, and the fire in their hearts was even greater!
"Rookie, I don't need you to teach me how to play, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at me? You're just a supporting character chosen by the team to assist me, put yourself in the right place! ”
Li Kaiming didn't want to have any physical altercation with Arenas, after all, the latter was a wolf who could bring a gun to the locker room, and he couldn't afford to risk his life because of a discord in a training session, who knows if this guy has a pistol in his pocket now.
As for what Wizards behind Arenas chose to assist him, he directly took it as a joke.
He has a system in his body, he naturally knows what his future level is, Arenas is currently at the end of his career, as long as the team management is not blind, who should be selected, isn't it a sure thing?
Even if the Wizards owner had a brain pump and wanted to trade himself for a Arenas, he wouldn't mind that.
After the rookie contract is completed, he is confident that he will become the biggest star in the NBA, and it is not up to him to decide where to go with the second contract?
When Arenas said this, it was already clear that he felt a huge threat, and it was very likely that even this hasty comeback was because he wanted to come back and seize power!
Arenas didn't expect that his thoughts, which he thought he were hiding deeply, were seen through by Li Kaiming almost at a glance.
Thinking of this, Li Kaiming relaxed, now in this situation, he is the least anxious, as long as he can continue to maintain his performance on the field, with Arenas's behavior in training today, the latter's departure should be a high probability.
A bullish person doesn't need to clash with the enemy in person, someone will help him deal with everything, Li Kaiming has this confidence, he is this person, not Arenas on the other side.
Seeing that Li Kaiming was no longer talking, Arenas at the other end was like a proud peacock, leaving the training ground with his head held high, and today's team training ended hastily.
Sanders immediately informed the team's management of what happened in practice after training, and the team's duo had a conflict, which caused some shadows on the Wizards, who are currently on a winning streak.
On November 6th, a big melon suddenly broke out on Twitter!
A verified sports reporter account posted a message that in tonight's Wizards' home game against the Cavaliers, the Wizards' Gilbert Arenas is about to return, and in yesterday's team practice, Arenas and the now in full swing Li Kaiming clashed!
This news was not taken seriously by fans, because there are countless so-called sports reporters in the NBA, each of whom claims to have someone in the league, and then has some news, but it will be found afterwards that 90% of these so-called news are false.
What really made this tweet show its impact was the retweet of Oj, a well-known sports journalist in Emerica, who also commented after the retweet that he had received a similar message.
OJ is currently the second most influential sports reporter in the NBA, and every time the trade is open, OJ's news always lets fans know what trade their home team has made, and compared to other reporters, OJ's news is very accurate, which shows that he is really an informant within the team.
Originally, Arenas' comeback was already a relatively big news, the Wizards team without Arenas has won four in a row, if you add a Arenas with plenty of outside firepower, the Wizards team will not have to go to the championship?
But the contradiction between Arenas and Li Kaiming instantly suppressed the news of Arenas' comeback and became the biggest news in the NBA before the curtain game!
Everyone wants to see what role the Wizards will play in this turmoil, and what the final situation of Arenas and Li Kaiming will be.
At the same time, there are also a large number of teams in the league that are starting to operate, whether it is Arenas or Li Kaiming, they are all big fish, especially Li Kaiming, a rookie who can average 30+ per game when he just enters the league, and all teams want to try it, even if they don't have enough draft picks.
Because most people know that getting Li Kaiming means the rise of the team, and a garbage wizard team can bring the first place in the East, let alone other teams.
The sports media focused on the pre-match press conference for tonight's game.
Now that Arenas has returned, it will definitely appear at the press conference, and as long as the topic is slightly directed to the Wizards' infighting, it will be big news in minutes!
In the eyes of all fans and media, at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the pre-game press conference officially began!
When Sanders appeared at the press conference with Li Kaiming and Arenas, almost all the reporters' hearts began to pound!
It's really coming!
What makes the reporters even more excited is that Sanders is in the center of these three seats, separating Li Kaiming and Arenas from afar!
Just the news of the team's infighting!
The reporters on the scene are almost on the verge of getting out of control, and there will be big news tonight!
As the coach of the team, Sanders was the first to be interviewed, but the first question from the reporter was very tricky.
"May I ask you, did the Wizards temporarily announce Gilbert Arenas' return for this game before the game because the team was not notified beforehand?"
Sanders wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Gilbert misses the game a lot, he worked hard to recover, he got the team doctor's permission to play before yesterday's training, and we need a player like that in the back line, so his comeback is a two-way race for the individual and the team." ”
"Then may I ask if the conflict between Gilbert and Lee during team training yesterday that was rumored on the Internet is true?"
"We are a united team, any team, in a game or in training, there may be such and such quarrels, but things are in the past, we should look forward!" Sanders' mind raced, and he thought of almost all the beautiful words he could think of in his life to embellish and disguise this conflict.
But the reporters still heard the meaning of Sanders's words very clearly, because the latter did not deny the occurrence of contradictions and conflicts at all, but only downplayed them.
It can be seen that Arenas and Li Kaiming have contradictory things, which is basically true!
The reporters quickly lost interest in Sanders, and they couldn't wait to interview the person involved!
Arenas is in his first game of the season, so it's natural to interview him first.
The reporter asked Arenas what the conflict on the field was all about, and Arenas didn't seem to mind telling reporters about the training events, and he was very cooperative, "I just want to get back my touch in training, man, I've been playing in this league for almost ten years, and someone wants to teach me how to play?" It's ridiculous! ”
