Basketball glory

For a few weeks after the physical examination, An Ran was assigned to train with a small assistant coach. However, to his surprise, this training method was a bit elusive.

Stackhouse first took Enron to play at several large baseball fields in Memphis for a few days, and then moved to other cities in Tennessee. The same was true, first observing and then playing.

An Ran was very confused, because a large part of the moves on the wild field could not be used in professional games, and some were even direct walking behaviors, and this kind of playful dazzling skills were different from his own personality.

In the past, An Ran tried to use as simple techniques as possible, and he would do whatever he could to preserve his physical strength while playing basketball.

But this little assistant coach seemed to be very interested in wild ball and took him to visit almost all the wild ball experts in Tennessee.

Although he did not train in other sports, throughout September, An Ran felt as if he had opened up a new world, that is, skills, gorgeous skills.

After An Ran had a heart-to-heart talk with Stackhouse, An Ran understood what he meant. He said that at his current level and relying on his body and speed, An Ran would be at best a substitute among substitutes.

But once you have the same extraordinary skills as Irving, you can not only improve a lot of offensive efficiency, but also extend the life of your career. After all, it is an indisputable fact that players transfer from their bodies when they are young to their skills when they are old.

And for those who did not have outstanding physical fitness when they were young, it is not impossible to develop their skills as soon as possible and become a super giant.

Finally, Enron received his first NBA contract, worth US$730,000, in the form of two plus one, and there were also various incentive rewards, such as making the best rookie team, winning the All-Star Game, etc., if all

If reached, Enron's total salary in the first season will reach $2.33 million.

That's enough! An Ran smiled as happily as a flower. This cost tens of millions of yuan!

In the first week of the preseason, the Grizzlies finally gathered the team and started training. Last season, they were eliminated by the Spurs 4-0 in the playoffs and were eliminated in the first round. This was something no one wanted to see.

However, the Grizzlies, whose core lineup has not been strengthened, are still not favored by many people this season.

Zach Randolph is getting older and older, and the Black Bears' dominance on the court is declining day by day. Although he is still a strong inside player averaging 15+8 per game, even though he just won the personal first place last season.

Triple-double data, but age is an indisputable fact.

At seven o'clock in the morning, An Ran opened the door of the training hall with a nervous mood. Today will be the first time that all members gather to restore their physical fitness.

In the past two days, players had actually returned to the team one after another, but An Ran did not see them because at that time, An Ran was learning offensive skills with Brooke Giggs, the king of Tennessee wild ball.

As a good friend of Stackhouse, even though Giggs is over 30 years old and focuses more on his career, he had to help his friend for help, so under his special training, An Ran's playing style became more elegant.

Although I haven't played against a professional player yet, I already have the feeling of an ankle terminator.

There were only three people in the training hall, scattered in various corners doing their own warm-ups. An Ran put down his things and found an unused treadmill to get on, waiting for the arrival of the head coach.

Today's collection is a collection of all Grizzlies members

The head coach, assistant coaches, and players on the internal roster will all be present. Although there are still a few days left in the preseason, the team will arrange various projects after the gathering, and then they must report on time as required.

An Ran stepped on the treadmill and watched the players come in sporadically, feeling excited. Although the Grizzlies were not full of big names, they still had stars!

The first Grizzlies star to arrive was Mike Conley. When An Ran set his sights on him, it was obvious that he had noticed. Then he turned his head and showed a harmless smile. Just like Feng Critic, it was

A very nice player.

With his arrival, the Grizzlies players walked into the training hall one by one as if they had made an appointment, including Tony Allen, Vince Carter, Chandler Parsons, and some rookies and fringe players.

Came in.

After an offseason, the relationship between the team seems to be pretty good. They all exchanged greetings after meeting, and some people have even talked about what they gained during the holiday.

"Parsons, I heard that you have another girlfriend? When will you get married? Why don't you introduce me?" Ennis smiled and hooked Parsons' neck.

As the face of the Grizzlies, Parsons is a truly rich and handsome man. Although he has a problem with his training attitude and is often invisible on the court, in terms of conversation off the court, the entire Grizzlies team ranks among the top three.

"Hey bro, you don't like white starlets. I know you like the plump ones." Parsons winked at him, but everyone could hear the smugness in his tone.

Before the start of today's training camp, Ennis received a major piece of news, that is, he will replace Randolph in the starting lineup.

It's not that he is very capable. After being traded last season, his performance was only mediocre, but his advantage lies in his athletic ability.

The first thing Fizdale did when he came was to speed up the game, and it took a lot of effort to persuade Randolph to serve as a substitute. This proves that the team will speed up appropriately next season and adapt to the increasingly fast small ball league.

Ennis smiled and said: "Indeed, I still prefer hot models, which are exciting! By the way, how are you practicing three-pointers this offseason? The head coach seems to attach great importance to three-pointers. Last season, the whole league

Countdown, he is already angry."

Parsons frowned, but didn't show it. He glanced at Ennis, feeling a little embarrassed.

This offseason is completely spent on vacation, so there is no time to learn and improve the three-point shooting. It is not easy to maintain the same state as last season.

Ennis is very proud now. As a draft player at the end of the second round, he has been in the league for five years. Now he has finally become a starter. His contract expires in one year. He takes advantage of this best opportunity.

The most important thing is to win a big contract quickly.

An Ran glanced at the two of them, and then moved his eyes to other directions, because the two core players of the team, Randolph and Gasol, had not yet arrived. As the core of the team inside, they were still on the ball.

The most popular character on the team.

After waiting for a long time, neither of them came. Seeing that it was almost time for the head coach to arrive, Tony Allen quickly gathered the team and stood in two rows to wait for the head coach to arrive.

As the leader of the team's locker room, An Ran knows Tony Allen. His hard work and attitude on the court and his character off the court are very good, and he is recognized by Kobe Bryant.

There are not many defensive players in the entire league who have been praised similarly.

Mike Conley was selected with the fourth overall pick in the first round of 2007. The team first wanted to make him a team leader, but because of his personality, he really likes to be a good guy, which is not acceptable for the team.

, it has been completely unable to establish its prestige in the past few years.

After Marc Gasol was drafted by the Lakers, he was immediately traded to the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies immediately wanted to train him to become the core of the team. However, judging from the past few seasons, he was not at all like his brother, who was as powerful and dominant as his brother.

force.

After Randolph was traded, he only wanted to produce good statistics and didn't care much about the team's situation. It didn't matter even if his statistics were questioned.

So during the turbulent period of the Grizzlies, Tony Allen stood up and used tough and clean defense to boost the team's attitude and unite the team. Although his offensive ability was poor, he could not do anything on the court.

He is the core of the team, but off the court he cares about every player and truly cultivates the Grizzlies spirit.

Under this situation, Zach Randolph finally broke out and played a perfect season with the Grizzlies. He averaged 20+15 per game and was selected as an All-Star. He led the Grizzlies to the eighth-ranked Spurs and became a strong team in the Western Conference.

An Ran took a close look at him and found that he didn't have the ferocious face in the TV broadcast, nor the funnyness in the emoticons. Instead, he was very cold. But such a person has become the team's locker room.

The leader of the room, his charisma is evident.

"Let me introduce to you, this is An Ran. He comes from far away China. Welcome." Tony Allen smiled rarely, glanced at An Ran, and introduced to the people standing in a row in front of him.

The burst of applause was so loud that it shocked An Ran. He didn't expect them to be so enthusiastic. Doesn't this look like a way to intimidate the newcomers?

An Ran saw everyone focusing on him, smiled sheepishly, and had a better impression of Tony Allen.

It was obvious that the two of them had never had any contact with each other, but he remembered his name carefully. Although the pronunciation was strange, at least he was attentive. Tony Allen's introduction was very effective and attracted people's attention immediately.

Then I heard him continue: "Our new friend and our first-round pick, Wade Baldwin from Vanderbilt University, ahem, everyone should understand what I mean after listening to what I said."

An Ran was a little confused, but when he saw that several players around him looked understanding, he quickly asked the people around him.

After their introduction, An Ran understood that this university is one of the top 20 private universities in the United States. It is a national research university with the largest financial resources in the United States. Even though it is well-known in the world, people from there,

Either he is wealthy or he has superior intelligence.

Although the players present are not short of money, most of them have lived in poverty, and they have great respect for such intellectual talents.

Following Tony Allen's introduction, the door to the training hall also opened. He originally thought it was the coach and assistant coach, but when he saw the two big figures, An Ran was excited.

Because the people in front of me are clearly the well-deserved core of the team: Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph.

The two walked in with their arms around each other, looking very close to each other.
