295. Crazy Offseason (10,000 words)

How hard Lakers fans ridiculed when the Clippers signed Jordan with the highest salary last year, how ugly they are now scolded.

Li Ao was scrolling through the news while talking to Gentry on the phone.

"Michael has renewed his contract, so what we have to do next is simple," Gentry said. ”

Li Ao responded: "There is a full score answer sheet next door for us to copy." ”

"Now there's a problem, when Michael was talking to me just now, he said that he wanted to help bring in reinforcements, and he must be very attractive to free agents, but during the contract extension negotiations, he expressed his thoughts on the offseason operation...... Very special. ”

"It's okay, I just talked to the big boss on the phone, and the big boss is going to take Jordan to Europe to visit some countries in the next month, and Michael definitely doesn't want to miss this kind of showy thing."

"One month should be enough."

Gentry breathed a sigh of relief, and the trick of the apprentice fundamentally prevented Jordan from meddling in the management's operation.

Gentry continued: "Since we don't have Michael's bird rights, we have retained Mike and Matt's bird rights to suspend the renewal process, leaving him with tens of millions of annual salary space, if he doesn't renew his contract, this space can also be used to bring in offensive stars with the ball in the front line, and now that Michael has a base salary extension, we can give up his early bird rights, and then officially renew the contract with a veteran base salary exception, we still have tens of millions of annual salary space, Wally asked me to help him ask you, is it necessary to continue the plan to bring in forward stars?" ”

"I believe that Michael can still play well next season, and the high-paid players will not be considered, and the addition of a striker may also affect the way we play now, so let's start with the substitutes.

We already have Campbell and Hill two high-paying interior benches, and Matt can play power forward, and the power forward position doesn't need to be strengthened.

Defensive small forwards can be strengthened if they can, and if they can't be poached, we can increase Gerrard's playing time.

Steve seems to be ready to renew his contract for another year, right? Alternate veteran pitchers, we already have them.

Now our first goal is to strengthen the point guard, Earle is gone, Greg is retired, and we are the only one left on the point guard.

Including Steve, we only have 12 players now, and adding a backup point guard, an alternate point guard is the best option, followed by the No. 4 center, and the defense of O'Neal needs manpower......"

With the next-door neighbor's full score answer sheet placed there, Li Ao analyzed it very simply.

Gentry replied, "Your thoughts are the same as what we discussed......

After communicating with the team about the offseason recruitment plan, Li Ao didn't care about it.

Digging up a bench is not like recruiting a star, role players want more than just championships, salary is the focus.

To recruit stars, teams can change their style of play for the sake of stars, but recruiting role players requires consideration of whether the players are suitable from the perspective of management and coaching staff.

These will be left to the professional people of the team to do, Li Ao continued to be busy with his business activities, and at the same time seized the time to carry out strength training.

The time came to July 19th, Li Ao's last stop of the Imperial Capital War's promotional activities ended, and this year's offseason work was successfully completed, and then it was time to officially enter the offseason training time.

In the past few days, he has received two pieces of good news.

One is that the second point guard has fallen.

Yugoslav two-way guard Marco Jaric, who was the second pick in the second round of the same class, decided to play in the NBA, and the Clippers signed him on a three-year, $6 million contract.

That's a pretty high salary, and that's just as much for the first three years of this year's rookie contract with the 10th pick.

Another piece of good news has nothing to do with the Clippers, Wang Zhizhi returned to the national team smoothly, and there was no 'refusal to return'.

The main reason is that Wang Zhizhi played well last season, playing an average of 19 minutes per game, scoring 8.2 points and 3.8 boards, and averaging 1.4 three-pointers per game with a 41.4% three-point shooting rate.

Nelson Sr. announced that he would pick up defense again next season, saying that the offense was a dead end, so he did not renew his contract with Wang Zhizhi.

But Wang Zhizhi received invitations from many teams, and when he clearly could get the contract, the Bayi team came out to help him mediate, and won half a month from the Blue Association, so that he could go to those teams that were interested in him for a trial, and got a 2-year 6 million contract from the Heat, and with the help of Schwartz, he did not need to participate in the Orlando Summer League at the end of the month, and returned to the team smoothly on the 16th.

As an athlete, how much privilege you want to get in this field depends mainly on the results you play.

After signing Yaric, the Clippers management's reinforcement focus was on the center alternate, wanting to introduce another big meat shield, the first target was the Warriors' Adonal Fayer, but the Warriors' asking price was too high, and they opened their mouths to be two first-round picks.

Danny Ainge wants to hack Wally Walker's mobile phone number, but the other party is the Lakers' new arch-enemy...... Or talk patiently and slowly, mobilize contacts to help see which meat shield center has the right price.

Now the price of the meat shield center is still rising, there is Duncan in the east, O'Neal in the west, and the major championship teams want to cross these two hurdles to enter the finals, they all need meat shields.

Foyer's strength is shouting for a 6-year, $42 million early contract extension, if the Warriors don't sell him in the next two years, they will keep him in tears, after all, they have been raised for so many years, and they are reluctant to let go before they are sold.

Ben Wallace was in tears when he saw it, he worked desperately to get a 2-year, $14.5 million early contract extension, and a meat shield only needs to stand under the basket to get a salary similar to his.

Wally Walker was busy with the recruitment work, Gentry began to work to further improve the team system after the core squad was retained, Li Ao returned to the imperial capital on the 20th, rested for two nights, and began offseason training on the 22nd.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Li Ao came to his father's factory, and the area enclosed by the courtyard wall became larger again, and it looked magnificent from the outside.

Entrance to the gate...... The environment is nice and full of vegetables.

The factory area was expanded, but production was not expanded, and the land could not be left uncultivated, and it had to be turned into a vegetable garden.

When he came to the training ground, the trainer was ready, and Li Ao did not waste time and began to warm up.

During the warm-up, he glanced at the system screen, and a few days ago, his strength had increased to 91, and his explosive power had also increased to 92.

It's not just the past half a month of iron that has increased the strength from 90 to 91, but the second half of last season's competition, recent professional strength training, and the natural growth of the body.

Compared with the two years when he first received professional training, the improvement rate is very slow, it seems that it is almost the end, according to the trainer's judgment, at this stage, if he wants to have a significant increase in strength in a short period of time, he has to gain weight.

In the long run, there is still room for improvement in static power, and after a certain age, explosive power will begin to decline, and static power will rise.

At the beginning of last season, he was looking to gain weight.

At that time, Jordan had not yet found his position on the defensive end, and Odom was struggling with most of the power forwards, and the team lacked defenders at the power forward position.

But then Jordan made it clear what he should do on the defensive end, and after adjusting for a while, he did a good job, not only is he no longer the one who is dragging his feet on the defensive end, but also has become a key part of the defensive end of the team's starting lineup...... Li Ao gained weight to help protect the frame became less necessary.

Speed and flexibility are even more important.

won the championship, and the tasks related to the two finals were completed.

Complete the second goal of 'Glory to Angel City' and get 100,000 achievement points.

Complete all the objectives of 'Dances with the Gods' to get 50,000 achievement points, three-step world level 1, level 5 skill upgrade cards, and 1 advanced attribute point.

At the end of the season, I won the championship and got 100,000 achievement points.

Level 5 skill upgrade card, I used it when I got it, and upgraded the 'residual blood' to the full level.

"Residual blood level 5: 1. When the host falls into a state of fatigue and is within 10 points behind, it enters a hot state and its core strength is greatly improved, 2. After each goal, the physical strength of the residual blood state is slightly improved, and if the score is still behind after the goal, the residual blood state will continue.

Note: The hot hand state does not provide physical strength, and the host has to find a way to get the space to jump and avoid falling into the same dilemma of the rookie Black Mamba three-point shot due to insufficient force. ”

The attribute points were useless for the time being, and I waited for the end of the strength training to see if the speed and flexibility were affected, and whichever had the greatest impact was improved.

Now that the strength has increased to 91, Li Ao did not feel the decline in speed and flexibility, the speed on the system panel is still 93, and the flexibility is still 92, he added advanced attribute points to the bounce, increasing the bounce to 90, and the bounce speed has also increased to 95.

Raising the bounce to the top and the speed to the top is second in importance to speed and flexibility, but it is also important for him who is now being guarded more and more tightly.

Looking at more than 480,000 achievement points...... There has never been such a rich offseason!

"Three-step world level 1: After the host successfully starts to break through, the speed of the second step is +1, and the speed of the third step is +1."

34,000 achievement points were smashed out, 1 level 2 skill upgrade card and 1 level 3 skill upgrade card were in hand, and Li Ao upgraded the 'three-step world' to level 3.

"Three-step world level 3: After the host successfully starts to break through, the speed of the second step is +2, and the speed of the third step is +2."

When you reach level 2, the bonus for step 3 is increased by 1, and when you reach level 3, the bonus for step 2 is increased by 1.

Direct, hardcore, Li Ao likes this skill, he just needs to find a way to improve the breakthrough, and there is no need for supporting technology to trigger this skill.

After glancing at the comprehensive evaluation, he turned off the system and, with the help of the trainer, began to carry out training tasks related to the basic skills of three-point and mid-range shooting.

I haven't played for more than a month, and I have carried out strength training for more than half a month, and the shooting feeling has been greatly affected.

Li Ao entered the training state, and in the NBA, the free market was quite lively.

Larry Bird, who hibernated for two years after a failed attempt to bring in O'Neal Jr. in 2000, has finally made a move this summer after salary space was freed up!

First, he poached Larry Hughes from the Warriors for 3 years and 24 million US dollars.

Larry Hughes, a player in the class of '98, signed a rookie contract before the shutdown, the Warriors don't have the right to match with the parent team, and they can't keep it if they want to, and Larry Hughes has long wanted to escape.

According to ESPN, Larry Hughes initially wanted to follow his idol Jordan, and the Clippers initially had an intention, but unfortunately the Clippers had too many people on the shooting guard line, and he finally chose the Pacers, who were full of sincerity.

Big Birdie's movements did not stop, and after determining the outside core, he used Jalen Rose, who averaged 20+5+5 per game, as a chip to exchange for Sherif Rahim from the Hawks.

The Miami Times broke the news that Hawks owner Steven Price is not satisfied with the team's current rebuilding progress and wants to speed up the rebuilding process.

After bringing in Jalen Rose, the Hawks poached Robinson, the big dog, from the Bucks almost for free.

When Li Ao saw these two transactions, he felt that Rahim was lucky!

He didn't expect them to snatch little O'Neal away, and the end result was to keep Raheem from sinking.

Raheem escaped from the Grizzlies' hole last season and partnered with Terry and Muhammad, who had a positive attitude, and regained his passion for basketball, playing very hard and performing well, and was selected as an All-Star for the first time in his career.

However, the young owner of the Hawks, Steven Price, is a gentleman who meets the public's standard image of the rich second generation, with a heart higher than the sky, but extremely poor ability.

When Price first took over the Hawks a few years ago, he was not satisfied that the Hawks were only a second-round team, and he took it personally...... Lost the Iron Eagle.

Now that things are finally improving, Price is starting to work again.

If it goes according to normal development, Raheem will most likely be played badly by Price, lose his enthusiasm for basketball again, and retire from the peak...... Now Raheem has just played a beautiful season, regained his love for basketball, confidence in himself, and was immediately taken away by Big Birdie.

What is the future prospect of this Tanhualang, Li Ao is very much looking forward to it.

Tinsley, Larry Hughes, Reggie Miller, Raheem's core lineup, plus Al Harrington, Ron Mersell, Dale Davis, Jonathan Bender...... and other high-quality role players.

Big birds are big birds, and the Pacers are going to rise after all.

Billups joined the Pistons with a five-year, $26.52 million full mid-range and did not continue to stay with the Timberwolves.

Last season, Billups played the period when the sixth man was completely autonomous in the offensive situation, averaging 15 points and 3 assists per game, but after Trill Brandon was reimbursed, Billups could only play the starter and fight with Garnett on defense, and the defensive performance was very good, and the number of assists in the second half also doubled, but he only averaged 9 points per game in the second half, returning to the performance of the 00-01 season.

The Nets traded Vanhorn to Mutombo from the 76ers.

The focus of the media and fans on this deal is not who made and who lost, but the shock that Mutombo's big max salary contract was really got rid of by the 76ers!

And the 36-year-old Mutombo actually traded back to the 26-year-old Van Horn who was in his prime...... It's incredible.

This is not the only outrageous deal.

The Jazz traded a '03 first-round pick to get assist king Andre Miller from the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers didn't ask for any players, so they asked for a first-round pick, which was about equivalent to giving it away for nothing!

However, there are rumors that LeBron James of St. Mary's High School in Akron, Ohio, is suspected of receiving funding from local limited-edition jersey seller Rich Paul, and the NCAA is secretly investigating the matter.

James, a talented high school student who led the St. Mary's High School basketball team to win the Ohio High School League championship for two consecutive years in his freshman and sophomore year, is likely to be banned from the NCAA by the NCAA, according to local media in Cleveland, James has been confirmed to enter the NBA in advance after his senior year of high school.

After the news came out, people understood the operation of the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers definitely want to take down the local talent.

Andre Miller, who can get the assist king, is too much of a hindrance to the Cavaliers' swing, and trading back to a role player with the same power will also affect the swing, so he will simply give it away for nothing.

This operation also amazed fans, and it is not necessarily possible to change teams with the determination of the Cavaliers management, after all, Andre Miller is a pass master who can get the assist king in the third grade.

There is also news that the Timberwolves are the first team to go for Andre Miller, and the Jazz are chasing Andre Miller after failing to dig into the corner of the Clippers.

But some things don't come early, the Timberwolves can give players, but the Cavaliers only want draft picks, and the Timberwolves were not allowed to participate in the first-round draft until 2005, and they can't trade draft picks back, so they can only watch the Jazz snatch Andre Miller away.

The Timberwolves owner quit and ran to find Stern for a draft pick.

Stern also felt that the Timberwolves were pitiful, and discussed with the owners of each team and returned the two first-round picks in '03 and '05 to the Timberwolves.

The Timberwolves owner's appeal was met but he almost turned his back on it, and he came to spill it sooner when he knew it, and now he can only watch Andre Miller fly to someone else's ......

The Nuggets used three years and $21 million to poach the Knicks' expired free agent Camby.

Camby doubts his life this summer, a center of the strength of Foyer and Ostertag can get an average annual contract of 7 million, and he has no problem with an annual salary of 10 million, right?

But after a round of free agency trading, no team was willing to give him a contract that exceeded the middle class, and the Knicks selected Yao Ming, did not give Camby a contract extension, and he wanted to stay in New York.

In the end, it was the Nuggets management who suddenly wanted to form the twin towers and gave him a three-year contract with an average annual value of 7 million.

After signing with the Nuggets, Camby spent a week in retreat at home in New York, and it dawned on him that he was not a meat shield, and his stats were not good-looking, so he would definitely not get a big contract!

He can't be a meat shield, so let's get the data up.

The Nuggets put Avery Johnson, Woshamp Leonard, Joey McLeod, James Posey ...... in the offseason Waiting for all the high-quality role players on the outside line to be emptied, it looks like they are going to be rotten, and the time has come for the 96th class of Bangyanlang to rush to a high salary!

By the end of July, the most lively phase of the free agency market has passed, and free agents have flowed and traded more frequently this summer than in the past two summers.

However, there was little movement from the four major title contenders last season.

The Kings only signed Zeon Clark to a mid-range contract, and the reason for using the mid-range exception was that their main interior backup Scott Pollard was accidentally seriously injured while participating in the Dream Five training camp, and for insurance purposes, he poached Zeon Clark from the Raptors with a two-year, $10.5 million knife.

In addition, the Kings only signed Dimon Jones and Jim Jackson with two base salaries, put together a 15-man squad, and did nothing else.

As for the Magic, there were no other reinforcements after signing Sean Lukes, and Troy Hudson was poached by the Timberwolves with 2 years and 6 million US dollars.

The Magic's operation this summer...... No, there is no operation, which makes the media and fans very confused, but the days are over?

The Lakers have not achieved anything in the offseason, only breaking up the middle class, poaching Tracy Murray from the Raptors with 3.2 million US dollars in 1 year, and renewing the contract of Medvidenko, a center without bird rights, with the remaining 1.7 million US dollars.

It's not that the Lakers don't want to operate, it's that there are no conditions for operation.

After a few years of competing for the championship, the Lakers have been 'full of middle class', counting the middle-class exceptions that have just been used, the Lakers team has 5 middle-class contracts, most of which are still at the end of the contract, and the highest salary, these 5 middle-class alone occupy more than 20 million US knife space.

Even if the NBA's income did not decline like the other three major leagues last season, it did not fall but rose, and the salary cap was only 47.75 million US dollars, these 5 middle classes, plus O'Neal's 23.57 million US dollars and Kobe's 12.38 million US dollars, the Lakers' salary has exceeded 56 million US dollars, and nothing can be done.

That is, falling into the 'middle class trap'.

It is naturally impossible for other teams to stand up to help the Lakers make room at this time, and they are unwilling to take over when their contracts expire.

The Lakers can only bear this summer, but fortunately, they have 3 mid-level contracts that will expire in the summer of '03, and the majority of the middle-class exceptions that have just been used up have only been signed for 1 year, and they still have hope.

The Clippers have also been slow to move after trading a draft pick for Teylon Hill and signing Marco Jaric, who was drafted in '00, which was expected by the media and fans, and is completely different from the situation of the next-door neighbors, who took the initiative and the next door was forced.

On July 31, Li Ao's family left their hometown and flew to Los Angeles.

He has completed a week of recovery training and will be followed by targeted technical intensive training.

He has made appointments with Kobe, Big Q, Gerald Wallace, O'Neal Jr., Odom and others to train together, and Jordan may also come.

He went to Los Angeles for a night off, and when Eagle Sauce time arrived on August 1, his teammates and former landlord who learned that he had returned came to his house to celebrate his 21st birthday.

He forgot about it, his birthday is the lunar calendar, the 10th of this month, the second day of the seventh month, but as a social phobia, he likes to be lively, and everyone has fun together.

Just when Li Ao and his teammates were celebrating, a hot news came.

The Magic team held back for a month, and they really made a big move!

The Bucks continue to 'tear things down'.

Previously, the Bucks traded the big dog back for Kukoc, which was about equivalent to giving the big dog to the Hawks.

Now, the Bucks have sent the other two of the three musketeers out as well.

On August 1, 2002, the Magic, Pistons, and Bucks completed a three-way trade!

The Pistons sent Clifford Robinson, Brad Miller in exchange for Ray Allen.

The Bucks sent Ray Allen, Cassel, and Jason Coffee in exchange for Brad Miller, Grant Hill, Hores-Grant, and the Magic's 2003 first-round pick.

The Magic sent Grant Hill, Hores Grant, and 2003 first-round picks in exchange for Kassel He, Clifford Robinson, and Jason Caffey.

The free market, which had just cooled down, was detonated in an instant after the announcement of the deal.

The reaction of the fans to the deal - the Magic team is finally willing to take Hill out for a trade, and if they don't trade, they will be rotten.

After the Magic team reached the Eastern Conference finals in the 00-01 season, many media and experts suggested that they sell Hill, but the Magic team management was full of the 'Big Three' and was reluctant, and later regretted it after reaching the Finals and losing to the Clippers due to poor role players.

Send Hill out for role players, maybe last season's championship will be theirs!

Hill, who is now about to turn 30 and has been reimbursed for two years, has plummeted, that is, the Bucks management is tired of the internal contradictions of the three musketeers and is bent on tearing down the house, otherwise the Magic will not even get the return in this deal.

Kassel and Clifford-Robinson, neither of them have a high trade value, either a matter of strength or no 'trade value'.

Kassel has never been seen, his career has been 9 years now, he has not even received an annual salary of 5 million US dollars, and the trading market is not good.

Clifford Robinson is too old, 36 years old soon, with a salary of up to $8 million.

Trading Hill for these two would have to take a first-round pick, Hores Grant, and a $5 million junk contract to eat Jason Caffey.

This three-way deal has mixed reviews of the Magic team.

Some people praise the Magic team management for finally not clinging to the 'Big Three', and others say that the Magic team is impatient and has hope for Hill.

Putting aside the 'loss or not', the Magic's role player roster has improved dramatically from last season, Maddie has an excellent guard line helper, and Duncan has an interior partner who can help rather than drag him down.

The Bucks were seen as betting on luck.

It is rumored that because of seeing Reed's rapid progress, the Bucks management, who has been dissatisfied with Ray Allen's character for a long time, decided to abandon Ray Allen and develop Reed instead.

Now that the trade is back to Brad Miller, who can defend, shoot, and respond, if Grant Hill can recover from injury, not to mention the performance of the Pistons, as long as there is 80% strength, the Bucks' three-core lineup will be alive, and it is far more reasonable than the three musketeers.

The Pistons were seen as the biggest winners of the three-way deal, retaining Ben Wallace and Artest, with the defensive core in place and the guard line for a cannon.

After completing the three-way deal, the Magic continued to reinforce.

A one-year $700,000 base salary was poached from the Hawks to backup point guard Jacqui Vaughn, and the remaining part of the middle-class exception of signing Shaun Lukes was used to sign Piakowski, who shot 46% of three-point shots last season, with a three-year $8.1 million cut, and a one-year veteran base salary exception was used to sign Rain Man Kemp, who was cut by the Trail Blazers......

The world is changing so fast!

Li Ao woke up after a birthday party, and the two strong teams in the east have been qualitatively strengthened!

The Magic lost a shooting point guard, sent away Hill, who is likely to continue to be injured in their current style of play, and Hores Grant, who is seriously aging, and brought in five players, which is a considerable improvement from last season.

The main thing is to trade back Kassel and Clifford Robinson, the base salary and the three players signed by the middle class exception are all additions, if there is no trade to get the first two, the latter three are not, compared to last season.

The Pistons' championship team is also basically completed, and the core lineup of Billups, Ray Allen, Artest, and Ben Wallace is also terrifying to watch.

But Li Ao was amazed that the Bucks were really helpful, and they got up the two championship favorites in one go, and they didn't take it to heart.

Both of these teams are Eastern Conference teams, so let's give Kidd a headache first.

The opponent they prioritize against is still their next-door neighbor.

On the 2nd and 3rd, Li Ao rested for two days, helping his mother and aunt tidy up the house and take care of the yard, and he didn't live for more than a month.

On the 4th, Vivian, who had taken a one-year vacation, returned to school to start working, and Li Ao and his teammates began a six-week training camp.

Between training, Li Ao will also go back to school to prepare his graduation thesis, he will graduate last semester, but the past year has been too busy, originally thought that the second grade is still the development stage, as a result of Jordan, their Clippers suddenly rose to the championship stage, can only be delayed for a year, this year must take some time to get the degree certificate, otherwise ridicule Kobe Bryant only has high Chinese when the confidence is not enough.

The three-way trade between the Magic, the Bucks, and the Pistons is the final carnival of this offseason, and it is even more deserted after the carnival.

Fortunately, the Basketball World Championship is about to start, and it is still being held at Eagle Sauce's house, and basketball fans have topics to discuss, which is not as boring as in previous years.

Time passed day by day, Li Ao took a break in training, and took the time to make a cameo appearance as the small boss of a large film company invested by Universal Pictures, the role is very simple, playing a 20-year-old college basketball genius, the heroine's ex-boyfriend, a playboy, and the heroine's scum...... He protested to the director about this character image, but the director said that it was a character setting that was in line with his college image, and asked him to act a little more restrained than the first cameo movie, not too much.

Angry from the heart, he seduced the heroine Scarlett Johansson with his beauty and went to the hotel...... As a result, the other party played more than he did.

After a few years for Durant to play in the NBA, his trash talk material was there — Black Widow drank my bathwater.

He didn't use the bath towel after taking a bath, and was sucked dry by the future Black Widow, which was considered to be the bath water.

On September 9th, the six-week training week of the Los Angeles Twins Training Camp came to an end.

There was no training today, so in the morning we gathered in front of the TV to watch the third-place match, and in the afternoon we watched the championship fight.

There is no Bunny Team, and there is no Eagle Sauce Team.

Wang Zhizhi was not expelled, plus Yao Ming, who played in the World Championships for the first time, plus Battle, luckily reached the top 8, and then disappeared, and finally won the 8th place.

The Dream Five, which did not have a big-name star in the competition, finally finished sixth, which is the most recent ranking of Rabbit and Hawk Sauce in basketball history.

After the national team was out of the quarterfinals, Li Ao saw that there were domestic media and fans calling for him to return to the team, and he also wanted to, but the grandsons of the Blue Association did not come to contact him, so he took the initiative to contact? God knows what the group of grandsons can ask, and he is afraid that he can't help but breathe in a big mouth.

He is not in a hurry, when he becomes stronger, the group of grandsons will always take the initiative, and at that time he will make a request.

In the end, the German team defeated the New Zealand team to win the bronze medal, and the Silver Horn King caught up with the last tail of the golden age of the German men's basketball team.

The Yugoslav men's basketball team showed their last glory, completing two consecutive World Championships and once again becoming the world's No. 1.

On September 16th, the 'L.A. Twins Training Camp' was over, with Big Q, Odom, Gerard Wallace, Matt Harprin, and O'Neal Jr...... The torture time of others is also over.

Spider-Man, the God of Basketball, and the Black Mamba are three training maniacs, which put a lot of pressure on them.

This is actually okay, the three of them are training crazy, but they are all competing with each other, and they don't pull them to practice together, they just see that these three people practice so hard, don't mean not to work hard.

The torture mainly comes from Spider-Man!

They have experienced first-hand what talent is, Spider-Man is already stronger than them, and he is progressing faster than them!

The intensity of the training didn't make them feel like they were holding back, and the talent bullying they felt from Spider-Man made them want to escape from this sad place.

6 weeks! Exactly 42 days! Finally got through it!

After the training camp, Jordan was the boss and invited the friends who trained together to his manor for a party.

Not long after the party began, Jordan regretted why he had built a basketball court in the yard.

Neither Spider-Man nor the Black Mamba took a sip of their wine and started a heads-up again.

had a good party, he invited so many hot swimsuit models and N-line stars, but everyone was watching the two of them go head-to-head.

What's so nice about striking iron with "bang".

However, watching Li Ao pose at the free throw line with a triple threat, he stood and shook a shot, and then turned around to play and then turned around to pull a step sideways...... Striking iron, Jordan was a little excited.

Big Spider's high-level singles skills have been greatly improved!

The progress is really fast, in just 6 weeks, the big spider's three-threat play has been good, relying on outstanding arm span, even Kobe Bryant has to shake.

If it weren't for the heads-up rule of the two, which must be a mid-range shot, the big spider was completely qualified to break through this single.

In addition to developing the triple-threat play, Jordan also saw the big spider back play, turn and break through the rhythm, pull-up jump shot, catch-and-shoot and three-point ...... during training camp and so on.

The speed of progress was so fast that he wanted to take the initiative to teach the other party two tricks.

Thinking of this, he was a little angry, the big spider has been with Black Mamba, James Worthy, and David Thompson for the past 6 weeks, often studying and discussing how to adjust the training method, but never taking him to play with him, he wants to take the initiative to join, but he is the god of basketball, and he has to be taught by others, and he takes the initiative to guide him to lose face.

Li Ao and Kobe Bryant singled out a few groups and ended after a lot of fun, and they didn't practice for too long.

Li Ao didn't play the experience pack this time, but it's not bad to have a few hundred achievement points.

Shooting in a fixed area, he didn't get many achievement points by scoring goals, most of which were obtained by preventing Kobe Bryant's iron.

After ending the heads-up with Kobe, Li Ao went to get a glass of wine and watched the newly opened battlefield - Jordan and Kobe Bryant playing cards.

It's not easy to finally have a few drinks at Eagle Sauce's house.

Onlookers, Li Ao opened the system and took a look.

"Name: Li Ao.

Age: 21 years old (August 1, 1981).

Height: 203 cm, Arm Span: 227 cm.

Weight: 105.6 kg.

Overall rating: 88.

Physical fitness: speed 93 (burst acceleration 93), strength 91 (explosive power 92), bounce 90 (speed 95), flexibility 92, stamina 93......

Basic skills: 85 three-point shooting, 92 mid-range shooting (cap), 93 layups, 80 hook hands, 78 ball control, 86 passing...... Retreat 92, traverse 92, go around the front 92...... Stride 80, turn 92, emergency stop 89, lean back 80, high back 86, turn over 79......

Technique: 83 hook shots, 91 catch-and-turn shots, 87 stop-and-go jumpers, 85 high-back techniques, 77 turn-over jumpers, 79 step-back jumpers, 80 pull-up jumpers, 75 turn-and-turn shots from behind, 64 ...... triple threats"

The biggest improvement this summer is the three points, on the 11th, he successfully broke through to 85, came to the first-class level, the shooting three-dimensional all exceeded 85, and the supporting catch shot was also above 85, he confirmed to the system that the development direction was to receive the ball and shoot, and the task of 'advanced first-class' was completed, and his comprehensive evaluation of 84 soared directly to 88.

He estimates that if he practices turn-over jumpers, step-back jumpers, and dribble-turn-and-shoot to an excellent level, the overall evaluation can be improved.

He's been happy with a lot of progress this offseason, but there's still a pain in the eye – the basics of mid-range shooting have reached the ceiling of talent.

The ceiling of 92 is actually very high, and the ceiling of many players' mid-range shooting talent is not at the first-class level.

It's just that he is only 21 years old, and his basic skills in mid-range shooting have reached the upper limit...... Blame him for making progress too fast?

But he can't help it, the level 4 mid-pitch training method, the level 3 mid-pitch training task, DeRozan's mid-pitch bag, and the experience bracelet, a total of 260% of the additional training effect bonus, his mid-pitch is a top talent, practicing for an hour is equal to others practicing for hours, and he has already practiced his mid-pitch talent to the end in less than two and a half years after entering the NBA.

Next, we can only look forward to seeing if there are any task rewards that can break through the upper limit, if there is, it is fine, if not, just move the time of mid-range shooting training to supporting technology, the top mid-range shooting is enough in the playoffs, and there are additional bonuses for specific shots.

He feels that although his current comprehensive evaluation is not as good as some top stars with 90+ evaluations, the main reason is that his finishing ability is not comprehensive enough, focusing on playing a few strengths, and he will definitely not lose to those top stars or even some supergiants.

The quest 'Advance to the first-class' also gave him a skill, and he krypton 40,000 achievement points to upgrade to level 3.

"Vacancy Killer Level 3: When you catch the ball in the open position, you get a 15% increase in adaptive shooting speed, and when you feel cold, the vacant shot will speed up the speed of regaining your shooting touch and rhythm."

This skill is the exact opposite of 'Tracy's Elbow Pads'.

'Tracey's elbow pads' can only be triggered by shooting directly in front of the defender without dribbling, and shooting in the open position will not get an increase in shooting speed, and the 'empty killer' is only available when receiving and shooting in the open position.

There is still a month and a half before the start of the regular season, hurry up and practice, hurry up and pack at Kobe Bryant and Jordan!
