Injuries in basketball only make me stronger

Two weeks before the official start of the season, players were recalled to the team to participate in the 76ers training camp to hone their understanding and practice tactics.

At the technical level, coaches can no longer teach athletes of this level anything. The team has dedicated trainers who will polish them in detail in terms of technique and physical fitness.

What Cheeks has to do is hand over his new coaching philosophy to them and let them adapt to his own style.

Lian Feng temporarily bought an apartment near the training facility. In his opinion, buying a mansion in Philadelphia doesn't make much sense. He has to fly around with the team to participate in games, and he doesn't have much time to stay in Philadelphia.

On rest days and team training days, he prefers to stay in the training hall.

Of course, the more important reason is lack of money.

On the way to the team's training facility on the first day, Lian Feng was still very excited.

Allen Iverson.

What kind of person is he? Is he the same as what is written in the magazine?

There are many short superheroes in the history of the NBA. Chris Paul and Stephen Curry, some of them are super brains, and some are super shooters, but no matter what, they all follow the iron rule of the No. 1 position and short players -

—Rely on the pick-and-roll, try to find mismatches, and attack at the top of the arc like a regular position when holding the ball.

Only Iverson, as a player shorter than them all, in his peak period, he caught the ball and singled out on both wings, playing like a forward swingman.

He is different from Jordan. Jordan has been elite. Rather than saying that Jordan is a black man, it is better to say that he is a white man wearing black skin.

As for Iverson, from beginning to end, he was deeply imprinted with the imprint of the black people at the bottom, and he pushed pure black culture to the halls of the NBA.

Only he, as a commodity, dared to raise his middle finger to the shelf, and then said arrogantly: "Let's fight this fucked (cross out, change: beautiful) world!"

Unfortunately, in his previous life, Lian Feng was still a teenager when he watched AI play. In Kobe’s words, “I had no idea how powerful the peak AI was.”

Now, there is a chance!

Lian Feng could not contain his excitement about meeting this legendary star.

Pushing open the door of the training hall, his eyes began to scan like a radar, and then he was quickly disappointed...

AI... isn't here!

After a brief absence, Cheeks had discovered him.

Today is the first day of player reporting. Except for Cheeks and a few assistant coaches, there is no player in the stadium. He is the first one to arrive.

Cheeks glanced at his watch and said to Lian Feng: "The agreed time is 9 o'clock, you are one hour early."

Lian Feng laughed: "Do I have to pay a fine in advance?"

Cheeks also laughed. This guy from Asia is not as boring as expected, which is a good thing.

"Let's wait until all the players are here before starting today's training. Before that, you can do some simple warm-ups."

Lian Feng nodded, and under the leadership of an assistant coach, he took his bag and went to the locker room to change clothes.

Lian Feng said nothing.

The assistant coach laughed: "Man, relax. I know you will be a little nervous on the first day. But believe me, the atmosphere in our team's locker room is quite good...I mean, compared to many teams,

Our atmosphere is very relaxed because Allen is a leader who knows how to adjust the atmosphere."

Lian Feng nodded.

After changing clothes, Lian Feng returned to the court, but the other players had not yet arrived.

Cheeks showed a surprised expression when he saw him.

"It seems that you listened to our advice."

Cheeks noticed that Lian Feng's arms were obviously much thicker and his shoulders were also much broader. Of course, this did not significantly improve his tall and thin body, but it would not give people the impression that he would fall over at a touch. .

Lian Feng nodded: "This summer, I gained nearly 10 kilograms of weight."

"Hopefully this doesn't sacrifice your agility and speed," Cheeks said.

"As You Like Coach."

Afterwards, Lian Feng began to warm up alone.

After jogging a few laps, Lian Feng began to practice shooting with the help of his assistant.

Catch the ball and shoot the ball.

Catch the ball and shoot the ball.

Run, catch, and shoot.

Cheeks watched silently from the side. It was a pity that Lien Feng's shooting was not stable and his release speed was not fast enough... Maybe it was enough compared to his previous opponents, but this is the NBA and he would not get it. There are more mid-range shooting opportunities, and the defenders he faces put more pressure on him. His shots are too slow and he can easily be interfered with.

The shooting point is not high enough either.

After Lian Feng pitched for more than 20 minutes, his body began to heat up. This showed that a summer of physical training was effective. At this time, he felt that he had just entered the state, and he did not feel as exhausted as before.

The first person to arrive at the training facility was the team's starting center, Samuel Dalembert.

Samuel Dalembert was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and experienced a difficult childhood. His parents left him for France very early, and he grew up with his grandmother until he was 14 years old. I received systematic basketball training only after my parents went to Canada.

Generally speaking, if you only come into contact with basketball at this age and you can still play as a starter on a team, it means you are very talented.

Samuel Dalembert's talent is visible to the naked eye. His height and wingspan are above the average for a league center, and his Achilles tendon is very long. He seems to have good movement, running and jumping abilities.

Lian Feng took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, I'm new here."

Samuel Dalembert nodded expressionlessly.

Cheeks shook his head: "Don't mind, that's just how he is."

Lian Feng didn't feel much at all, but it still made him feel good that Cheeks took care of his emotions.

As the time gradually approached 9 o'clock, the players came one after another.

But Lian Feng looked left and right, but he didn't see the AI.

Cheeks couldn't help frowning and asked the assistant coach next to him: "Is everyone here?"

"Yes sir. Allen is undergoing rehabilitation training during this time."

Cheeks looked at his watch, clapped his hands and called everyone over: "Okay, if anyone else hasn't arrived, we won't wait. Let's start today's training!"

Weber said: "What's the training content today?"

Cheeks said: "This is a good question. Since you have rested for a long time, I think those damn parties, alcohol, and women have almost corroded you! Today, I want to confirm that you How much strength is left? So, after the warm-up, divide into two teams and play a training match to show me."

No one had any opinions.

Lian Feng was a newcomer, and Cheeks didn't introduce him to the team members, so he stood there awkwardly at a loss for what to do.

At this time, a person patted him on the shoulder.

Lian Feng turned around and saw a dark face.

Big Brother.

At this time, Brother Yi was still a second-year rookie, and his face was still a little green.

"Man, you're the guy who jumps high, right?"

"Yes."

In the United States, when someone compliments you, you cannot respond in the humble and polite way that China does.

Brother No. 1 said: "This is the first time we meet, your name is Lian Feng, right? Come on, I believe we will have a pleasant journey!"

"certainly."

After a few simple greetings, Lian Feng became acquainted with Brother Yi.

At this time, the assistant teacher announced the group list.

"First team, Webber, Iguodala, Korver..."

"Second team, Samuel Dalembert...contact forward!"

Hearing Lian Feng's name, Samuel Dalembert frowned and couldn't help complaining: "Coach, this is unfair! We don't have a defender here!"

Cheeks glanced at Samuel Dalembert indifferently: "The forward plays the point guard."

"he?"

Not just Samuel Dalembert, many players screamed.

"A guy over two meters tall?"

Cheeks ignored it and just asked Lian Feng: "Is there a problem with Lian Feng?"

Lian Feng shrugged helplessly: "I have no problem."
