The 76ers canceled the dinner at short notice, and it was not until the next morning that team staff came to pick up the forward and go to the team restaurant.

Zhuomei was waiting for news in the hotel. Although she was fully prepared, she was still a little nervous and clenched her fists at Lian Feng: "Come on!"

Lian Feng laughed: "Okay."

The restaurant is built not far from the team's training hall. The staff said: "This restaurant provides dinner for the players on training days."

“Do I have to eat in the restaurant?”

The staff glanced at Lian Feng and looked down upon his thin body, but they still answered his questions patiently: "Of course not. In fact, our team's training intensity is not very intense... because the team boss

No matter how much the team's rookies train, it won't really matter if they don't participate. However, at least three hours of training time will be guaranteed on training days. Training is usually scheduled in the morning, starting at about 9 o'clock, and then you can choose to train at

Eat in the hotel restaurant or go out to eat…”

"oh……"

The staff thought for a while and then said: "But I advise you to listen to the team nutritionist's advice on eating... I mean if you can become a part of our team... you are too thin.

It’s like a high school student... It’s hard to imagine that you are already 22 years old this year.”

After chatting with the staff for a while, we finally arrived at the team training hall restaurant.

Except for Lian Feng, the other five trial players all chose five-star hotels further away from here, so he was the first to arrive.

But it didn't take long for other players to arrive one after another.

Lian Feng scanned a circle of other trial trainees. According to the set of information given by Zhuomei, there are only two more competitive players among the other five, one is Stoudemire and the other is Miles. These two players

, if Lian Feng remembers correctly, he eventually entered the NBA.

This Stoudemire is not a little bully Stoudemire. He is just a role player. Although he seems to have scored 30 points in a certain game, it is a pity that he can only be regarded as a small role in the talented NBA.

Even Lian Feng doesn't remember which year he participated in the draft and which teams he ended up playing for. What's more eye-catching about him is his height of 185cm, which is a full head shorter than Lian Feng.

Lin's NBA is an out-and-out dwarf.

And Myers is the opponent that Lian forward needs to compete with in this trial training, because they both occupy the same position, they are both small forwards at the No. 3 position. It must be said that Myers is definitely not lacking in talent. He

He is a high school player. He is only 18 years old this year. If he can finally pass the draft, he must have something special and cannot be underestimated.

However, in terms of height and wingspan alone, Lian Feng has an absolute advantage. At 203 centimeters tall, he is 5 centimeters taller than the second-tallest Miles, and his wingspan of 213 centimeters is not inferior to that of ordinary black players. The only disadvantage is weight.

...Fortunately, none of his trial opponents were talented future stars, and the others were not much stronger than him.

Hmm...it doesn't seem too difficult to stand out among these newbies.

During the meal, team coach Cheeks and several assistant coaches came to see them.

Cheeks' coach's experience is somewhat similar to Nash's. He also transitioned from a point guard to a coach. He only started coaching the 76ers this season. Like these rookies, he also has the same role for this 76ers.

It's a newcomer.

Lian Feng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Strictly speaking, Cheeks could be considered as returning home. He was one of Philadelphia's absolute main players as a player and helped the team win the championship in the 1982-83 season. That season, he faced Magic Johnson. As a player, he helped the team win the championship.

He has top defense and top assist organization skills, and these two abilities have become his coaching style. But he was born at the wrong time, and he met a team that was least suitable for him, AI and Webber in his late years, two who only

A cash machine that scores points.

When Cheeks was a player, he was a representative figure of hard work - or in other words, black people of his generation all had this characteristic. Looking at the six trial players, he calmly expressed his request.

"Listen, boys! You want to be in the NBA, right? Then show me your talents and basketball abilities. Some of you are already quite famous, like you, Miles, the young Texas basketball player.

Sir! There are also people I don’t know, such as you... trumpet Yao Ming? Haha, but listen, I don’t care how famous you were in your own territory, here, no one will care about those. Those who want to enter the NBA

Tickets, just give me a good performance!"

I have to say that Lian Feng preferred the old man's speaking style. The other trial players listened in silence.

"You have a lot to do in the next day, so I don't think we should waste time. I'll tell you as we go!"

"We will conduct a physical function test on you, and then a practical trial training. There are many items, so you must be mentally prepared... This is a trial training, not a child's play! Of course, depending on the situation, I may also arrange other

The content, such as 1 vs. 1, 2 vs. 2, 3 vs. 3, etc. Who can say it accurately? In short, I have the final say in everything here! So...are you ready?"

Except for Lian Feng, everyone replied: "Yes sir, be ready!"

Lian Feng was walking at the front and heard two people whispering behind him.

"Little Yao Ming? Look at his arms. They are as thin as my grandma's crutches."

"He is much shorter than Yao Ming."

Lian Feng turned around and saw that the ones speaking were two unknown players. If nothing else, they didn't even have a chance to appear in an NBA game. So he didn't even remember their names on the information given by Zhuomei.

"Two little dwarfs, do you dare to say what you just said again?" Lian Feng counterattacked unceremoniously in very fluent English.

Both black men are less than 1.9 meters tall, so it is reasonable for them to be called dwarfs by Lian Feng. In the United States, when one of them gives in when faced with ridicule, it will only make people think you are weak and can be bullied, which is not a good idea. Lian Feng wants to

To integrate here, you must first learn their way of doing things.

Suddenly, both players were stunned.

They were all surprised by Lian Feng's spoken language... although it was not authentic, it was very fluent.

"He seemed to have heard it."

Lian Feng glared at them and said, "You'd better apologize."

"Apologise? No, that's impossible. Are you not convinced...little Yao Ming?"

Lian Feng said: "Little Yao Ming? No, no, no, you have to remember my name. My name is Lian Feng. This name... you will remember it! In a moment, not long after entering the training hall, it will

It becomes a mountain you can never cross and makes you realize how disrespectful what you just said was."

"Is it a bamboo pole? You can pass the physical test first. Let me guess, how high can you jump? This high? Or this high?" One of the players made two gestures at the knee.

Another player duly added: "A flea's leap."

The other three players naturally noticed the conversation between Lian Feng and the others, but did not participate in it. With such a nerve-wracking trial training, they could not relax enough to talk trash at will... and facing a stranger, there was really no way to do so.

significance.

Miles and Stoudemire looked at each other and both felt that the two local players were a bit naive. However, they did not care about Lian Feng... In their opinion, Lian Feng had no other advantages besides height...

As we all know, the athletic ability and basic skills of Asian players are very poor.

Lian Feng was not annoyed and said with a smile: "Then let's see who is the flea."

At this time, the staff in front turned back: "We have arrived at the training facility. Remember, don't do other things without our arrangements. Come in and welcome to the legendary 76ers!"
