Injuries in basketball only make me stronger

The next day is the interview, psychological test and physical examination.

Lian Feng didn't know how other people felt, but he felt quite relaxed anyway.

There's really no reason to be anxious. Even if he doesn't pass this time, there will still be trials for the next team, and the next team... The worst result is that no team takes a fancy to him, but that doesn't matter.

There is an injury system. As long as you can find games to play, continue to hurt yourself, and continue to get stronger, one day your strength will be comparable to NBA superstars. Gold will always shine, and when that day comes, you will definitely bloom in the NBA.

of brilliance.

It's just a matter of whether it's early or late.

But if you miss this time, you can only enter as an undrafted player.

But this is because Lian Feng is an overseas player and local players are different.

Because of the provisions of the NBA draft system, everyone will automatically participate in the draft when they are 22 years old. For example, Tyrannosaurus King Zhelin was selected after sleeping. It can be said that everyone over 22 years old can say that he is an NBA undrafted person.

.

But for other domestic players in the United States, this is not the case. It is difficult for undrafted players to enter the league again.

Lian Feng chatted with the players who came for the trial.

Some of them are high school students who directly participated in the draft, some played in college for one or two years, and some even participated in the NCAA March Madness and were the main players of the team that reached the top 8.

But here, they have a common name, rookie.

Even though they were once influential in their respective fields, it is difficult for them to make it to the NBA.

During this period, they had to endure a lot of pressure. Interviews that were similar to interrogations, trials that were comparable to actual combat, and arduous flight journeys. They also had to face an uncertain future mentally, which was a real challenge both physically and mentally.

Even Stoudemire and Miles, who will be selected in the second round this year, are equally anxious.

While waiting for the interview, Lian Feng chatted with Stoudemire next to him.

Stoudemire told Lian Feng that the 76ers are already the seventh trial team he has participated in.

"The content of each trial team is different. Unlike joint trials, team trials are entirely based on the preferences of the management or coaches. Some teams are conducting special training, and you may still be able to see their

There are stars, but most of the team’s main players are either improving on special projects or on vacation.”

Lian Feng said: "Do you want to join the 76ers?"

Stoudemire smiled and said: "Of course! How exciting is it to be able to play with AI?"

Lian Feng thought that if nothing unexpected happened, the following season would be Iverson's last full season with the 76ers.

Stoudemire said excitedly: "Last year, the league canceled hand check. Do you know what this means? I think this is God's blessing on AI. He is the strongest breakthrough player. Without hand check, who can

What about restricting him?”

Lian Feng agrees with Stoudemire's point of view. No hand check is very beneficial to a breakthrough player like Iverson. In his last season in 1976, Iverson scored a career-high 33.0 points and 7.4 assists.

, it cannot be said that there is no reason for no hand check.

However, no matter how good the data is, Iverson cannot lead the team to victory.

The most important thing is that the team changed its owner and also got a new coach.

The previous boss liked Xiao Ai, but the current boss doesn't like him.

Except for Larry Brown, no coach can make the 76ers win.

The worst thing was the declining attendance. These various factors made the management decide to send Iverson away.

Of course, at this time, Stoudemire was more concerned about his future than Iverson. The topic soon turned to the interview again.

"Lian, are you not nervous at all? It looks like... you are really relaxed."

"Ha ha……"

"To be honest, man, I really envy you!"

Lian Feng asked strangely: "Envy me? What do you envy me for?"

"Your talent! Look at you, 203. Who else has this height? Grant Hill! Tracy McGrady (T-Mac grew twice after retiring, growing to 208)! You can also run fast and jump high.

Your only weakness is that your body is not strong enough, but this can be practiced. How stupid would it be to leave a genius like you without grasping it! If I were the team manager, I would definitely sign you! I promise! You

There is really nothing to worry about, you will definitely get their approval."

Black people have RAP attributes. Lian Feng was stunned after listening to Stoudemire's words and smiled: "Brother, you will also enter the league!"

Stoudemire shook his head: "I hope so too. But after all, I am only 185. I think every team would like to get a tall point guard with a height of 195 or even 2 meters. Small players like us

It's really hard to win the recognition of the team. I bounced around from team to team and I tried to do what they wanted me to do... But as you can see, it's too difficult for small players..."

Lian Feng patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, don't forget that Iverson is 3 centimeters shorter than you! Besides, you are going to play the No. 1 position, aren't you?"

Strictly speaking, Iverson's real height may be less than 180cm.

"Next person!"

At this moment, the door was opened.

Johnson came out with a dejected look on his face, glanced at Lian Feng and Stoudemire silently, said nothing, picked up the bag next to him, and walked away with heavy steps.

Stoudemire stood up and said, "Dude, are you okay?"

"My journey is over, I wish you good luck." Johnson smiled bitterly.

Lian Feng looked at this scene, but he actually felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"Next!"

The staff said again.

Lian Feng said quickly: "Yes sir."

…

When I walked into the office, the lights were dim and the atmosphere was depressing. There was a lonely chair, and opposite was a conference table with five or six guys in suits and ties. Except for Cheeks, everyone else was a senior member of the team. They were facing

Expressive.

It's like interrogating a prisoner.

Lian Feng didn't care and sat down swaggeringly.

For one minute, no one spoke. There was only the sound of the examiner flipping through the materials. If it were any other person with poor psychological quality, he would definitely be at a loss and panic at this time.

But Lian Feng didn't care about their psychological offensive, and even looked at the examiners who were observing the scene unceremoniously.

He has always had a point of view that the interview is definitely not one-way, it is a two-way choice. When the team interviews players, the players are also qualified to choose each other. However, this reverse right of choice is more reflected in

In the hands of players with great reputations and strong abilities...but that does not mean that weak players are not qualified.

Hmm...these guys are not very likable.

Lian Feng thought that this team could only be a transitional team at best. Even if he came here, he would never stay here for a long time.

"Hello, Lian."

At this time, the examiner finally spoke.

"Hello!"

The examiner laughed, and the light reflected his lenses, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.

"Astonishing athletic ability, organizational ability... Although you have not participated in the joint trial, today's trial was very successful. You successfully convinced our head coach, right Cheeks?"

Cheeks said: "Yes sir, he is a talented kid and he is a perfect fit for our team."

Lian Feng said nothing.

The examiner paused and said: "To be honest, we have discussed it for a long time and want to hear your thoughts. Are you willing to finally choose our team as the first stop for your NBA career?"

Lian Feng was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to be so direct...

Boy, is this an American trait?

This time, Lian Feng was at a loss.

"The 76ers are a great team!"

Lian Feng did not answer directly.

For a moment, all the examiners laughed.

"He's a crafty guy."

Suddenly, Lian Feng became even more confused.

What about the brutal interview you promised?

What about the promised blow?

At this time, the examiner became serious and said, "Cheeks, just tell him directly."

Cheeks nodded, paused, and said seriously: "Lian, I'm very happy that you passed our test. We discussed it for a long time and decided to directly provide you with a contract of more than 1+1, and I guarantee that,

You can get more than 10 minutes of playing time in the first three games, and I mean the games here are regular season games, not preseason games. If you perform well, this time will get longer and longer! But there is a condition."

Lian Feng frowned: "What conditions?"

Cheeks said seriously: "You can no longer participate in trials with other teams."
