Bulldozer of the NBA’s Restricted Area

The Lakers' first day of training was actually just a report. In addition to dealing with the media reporters who came after hearing the news, it was basically the interaction between the players, the players and the coaching staff, and the whole morning...

The new head coach Phil Jackson asked everyone to arrange their own warm-up, and then took the initiative to sit and chat with Li Shengli and Kobe for a while, carefully observing the relationship between Li Shengli and Kobe, because the head coach has to do more than just arrange training, Plan tactics and regulate player relations.

Logically speaking, the slang saying that there is no room for two tigers in a mountain is suitable for absolutely most situations, and it is also suitable for NBA teams, because there is always a lack of drama between the number one player and the number two player in the team fighting for the boss, but Jackson chatted for a while Huitian discovered...

This is different from many dual-core teams, even completely different.

Maybe it’s been a long time since they’ve seen each other. Li Shengli and Kobe were as happy as two melons. They were chatting so happily that they forgot about him as the head coach. Of course, he was happy to see this kind of core harmony, so After a brief chat, we continued to talk to other team members.

As for Fisher...who has the strength to serve as the veteran of the team, he will be swaying his teammates to target the newcomers.

Are you ready to bully the newcomers?

Originally, no one was willing to pay attention to Fisher, who was getting worried. But the problem was that throughout the morning, Artest, as a newcomer, had not shown the humility that a newcomer should have. Except for occasionally looking at Li Shengli, no one else paid attention. He has a cold face, and this makes Fisher's organization quite smooth. He responds to every call and is waiting for Phil Jackson to call people to play training games.

Is this atmosphere obviously wrong? !

Ironman Green is indeed a good man. After feeling something was wrong, he took the initiative to find Artest and told the young man some unspoken rules in the team, such as respecting the seniors, being more diligent with hands and feet, etc., but The embarrassing thing is... Artest still went his own way and ignored Green.

…

"Lee, I feel like Fisher... seems like they are not very friendly to Ron!" Green leaned towards Li Shengli with a bitter look on his face. At this moment, Li Shengli was with Kobe and saw Green getting ashes.

"The problem is that he's not very friendly to you either, Green!" Kobe scratched his head.

"It's nothing. Although Ron's performance...well, it's true that he doesn't want to be close to others, but there are too many people with this kind of personality in the NBA, and it cannot be a reason for Fisher and the others to target Ron. Doing so will not not good."

"No, you're not angry at all? Brother Green, you are such a good old man!" Kobe expressed surprise. Having experienced an era full of villains, he really didn't feel comfortable meeting a good old man at first.

"Come on, weren't you like this when you first came here? You were so awesome all day long. If it hadn't been for me, who else would have been able to cure you?" Li Shengli scorned Kobe.

"Damn, what are you doing? I'm a superstar in the league now, can you give me some face?"

"No, I won't give it. Look at Fisher, I'm afraid you will also drift away. It's not time yet!" Li Shengli glanced at Kobe and then said to Green: "Brother, don't worry about this. Anyway, Ben and the others have slipped away. As for Fisher... he won't fight even if you ask him to. This guy is a thief and won't cause trouble. Besides, it's normal for young people to suffer some setbacks. I just said Isn't it the same as being bullied by Larry Johnson when you enter the league? Everyone has to go through that."

"Are you being bullied?" Kobe jumped up: "Damn it, if I hadn't heard Curry and the others say it, I would have believed it. Tell me...before you were traded, did you still bully me?" You gave someone a slap in the face, and now you have the nerve to say that someone is bullying you. What do you think when someone hears this?"

"I've heard about this too!" Green was too down-to-earth and nodded to show that he had heard it. Although Li Shengli was exposed and Kobe's face turned blue with anger, he still continued: "What I'm worried about now is the young people. He's very angry, maybe Ron's backlash will be very intense, just like you did before...well, I'm talking about resistance."

Kobe, is this how you insult me?

Green, aren't you a good old man when you step on a horse, and you also follow me?

Li Shengli felt that he had been misunderstood too much, and looked at Ron again, and couldn't help but said: "Back to business, don't worry about Fisher, he just wants to toss a few times in the game. As for Ron, this kid Well, he looks like a good person at first glance, and he’s as kind-faced as me, so there’s no problem.”

"Huh?" Kobe was surprised and felt the pill.

"Isn't it?" Green thought for a moment, is this also called Mian Shan?

…

The Lakers' training camp is in the afternoon.

Because the time span of an offseason is not small, players cannot train as diligently as during the season, so the purpose of the training camp is to get back into the game. After a simple warm-up, Phil Jackson indeed arranged an in-team training Game, let everyone get used to it.

Li Shengli and Green are paired together. This is the Lakers' future inside starting combination. Jackson wants to see the general effect. The other combinations are Fisher, Crotty, and Horry.

As for the opposite group, it is Kobe's perimeter team, which is paired with backup centers Knight, Fox, Artest, and Tyronn Lue. This group of insiders is not the core of the consideration. Kobe's singles at the top of the arc are the most important. .

This is related to Jackson's future tactical arrangements, so Jackson directly sent Crotty, who could defend Jordan to a certain extent, to the opposite side of Kobe, and Artest was also one of the targets of observation.

…

The game starts.

Since it is a training match, there is no need to take it too seriously. Especially when Li Shengli plays against Knight, there is still the possibility of showing off his skills on the outside, but he has no skills on the inside. Pushing flat all the way is useless. Fortunately, Li Shengli did not do this. , just try to involve Fox's position and liberate Iron Man Green.

After all, Green is still old. He is considered a temporary power forward brought in by West and Johnson. But the good news is that after a few rounds, Li Shengli discovered... It is appropriate to describe Green as conscientious and dedicated, because even in training He is also extremely serious about the game, and he is very experienced after having played in the NBA for fourteen years.

The offense is not very strong, averaging 14.7 points per game in the peak season, but the rhythm of supporting the center is very good. Should he wait for the ball in a wide position, or go to the basket to fight for the board? Although the multiple-choice question of choosing one of the two is simple, the timing is very good. Important, Green did a great job.

As for defense, defense with attitude will not be bad, especially an iron man like Green, who set the league's consecutive appearances record, is even more meticulous about defense.

Generally speaking, Green meets some of the Lakers' requirements for the power forward position. The only disadvantage is that no one can make the 37-year-old Green increase his average time per game. He can play up to two quarters, which is the most. .

But that’s okay!

Phil Jackson on the sidelines thought about it, because Green has done a good job, and Li Shengli's team's consideration is basically over. The following is Kobe's observation time.
