Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

Yi Jianlian was busy designing sneakers, and it was almost September, and the closed training camps of NBA teams began one after another.

This year, many teams have undergone major exchanges. This has also led to many teams’ closed training camps much earlier than in previous years. For example, the Magic started closed training camps on September 7 and the Cavaliers also started on September 10. No. opened a closed training camp.

Hammond watched that the other teams started to take action, and after discussing with Xiao K, he also decided to start closed training early.

September 12.

The day the Bucks reported.

Crawford and Channing Frye entered the team without any restrictions. First, they have played in this league for so many years. Now their teammates have met more or less several times. Second, they followed Yi Jianlian and Mo Williams has been training for a month. Knowing the boss is equivalent to knowing all the teammates.

Yi Jianlian also met two rookies of this year, Tay Gibson and Danny Green.

Although Mason is gone, the custom of "bullying" the rookie can't be lost. Just in time for Mo Williams's birthday, Yi Jianlian asked the two young couples to sing a happy birthday song.

Mo Williams:? ? ? Why don't I know my birthday.

After singing the birthday song, everyone was in harmony.

When the teams opened closed training camps one after another, they took a rest season, and various sports websites that were so idle began to get busy.

First, Sports Illustrated began to update the player strength rankings.

This is the ranking that "Sports Illustrated" publishes every year. It starts from the bottom dozens of rankings and updates for a total of almost a month. Ten rankings are updated every day until the last day of the league’s top ten.

Play this ranking like them, and there is "ESPN".

Of course, these are the two most influential rankings, and the two lists that fans are more concerned about. Other websites also engage in similar rankings, but because they are not authoritative enough, they have not attracted much attention.

Among the ten players announced on the first day, a player Yi Jianlian knew, Sun Yue, appeared unexpectedly.

Sun Yue, who was abandoned by the Lakers this year, re-signed with the New York Knicks and stayed in the NBA, but this does not change the "Sports Illustrated" view of him.

It is worth mentioning that local newspapers in Los Angeles also referred to signing Sun Yue as "the worst signing in the history of the Lakers."

Obviously, Sun Yue's growth had not reached what they had hoped for, or even the minimum standard.

For Sun Yue, Yi Jianlian really has nothing to say. When training together last summer, he and Zhu Fangyu were not serious, they were just playing soy sauce.

In addition to the player strength rankings, "ESPN" also announced the 30 team strength rankings for the new season: the Bucks ranked sixth in the overall list, and the defending champion Lakers were overwhelmed by the trade. Here comes O'Neal's Cavaliers, the Magic with the new "OK combination", the Spurs and the Nuggets.

The Celtics ranked seventh, and the one-year-old "Big Three" further reduced the Celtics' competitiveness.

The most dissatisfied with this ranking are naturally the Celtics fans. They don't think there can be six teams ahead of them.

"Wait and see! Time will tell!"

Milwaukee fans don’t think the Bucks’ ranking is high or low. Compared to this ranking, they are more concerned about the player strength rankings. They all want to see that Yi Jianlian, the future of Milwaukee, can be ranked No. Few locations.

It's just that the list has just begun to be announced. If they want to know Yi Jianlian's ranking, they have to wait at least 20 days, maybe they get the last day.

Based on Yi Jianlian's MVP-level performance last season, ranking among the top ten in the league is not too much, right?

The Bucks entered a formal tactical run-in period after a week of adaptability training.

Little K continued to adjust the lineup, and finally determined the starting lineup of the Bucks: Mo Williams, Courtney Lee, Yi Jianlian, Channing Frye and Bogut.

Well, I just removed Ilyasova and replaced it with Channing Frye.

No way, Channing Frye is the high-end version of Ilyasova. Since there is a high-end version, why use Ilyasova?

The only thing Xiao K struggles with is Ty Gibson. This newcomer impressed him too deeply. He is very energetic and can be cultivated.

But in the end, he is just a rookie, and he is still honed in the second team. When he matures a little bit, it is not anxious for him to compete with Channing Frye in the starting lineup.

Jamal's offensive ability with the ball also made Xiao K look very eye-catching. His dribbling behind him was so good that even Courtney Lee couldn't stop him. He is absolutely capable of becoming a starter.

However, his requirements for the ball are too high, and the starting lineup is too much for Yi Jianlian's shooting rights. Moreover, he and Mo Williams are matched. The defense of the two people is really unsightly. I am afraid that it is better than Mo Williams and Michael Reed. The team's backcourt is even worse.

The most suitable is the sixth person.

Hammond told the latter when he first traded Jamal Crawford over. He was mentally prepared. After K. K. promised his second team shot rights, he didn’t have any. Worriedly agreed.

For Crawford, there is actually no difference between a starter and a substitute. As long as he can be given a chance to attack, he will have no objection no matter what his capacity is.

After the lineup was allocated, the training began. Just like last year, Xiao K let them run the tactics first, and at the same time, there are personal targeted training.

After about a week of training like this, Xiao K discovered a strange thing. Yi Jianlian has been communicating with the rookie Danny Green, who was just selected this year, and seems to be giving him some advice.

Does this little newcomer like Yi Jianlian so much?

Little K remembers that Courtney Lee had never been treated like this when he first joined the Bucks last year.

There's nothing dazzling about this guy?

Xiao K recalled Danny Green's side report, and felt even more strange.

Yi Jianlian... I really didn't expect the Bucks to pick Danny Green in the draft!

When did Hammond's vision change so well?

Hammond: Actually, I don't have much choice~www.wuxiaspot.com~Who asked you to play the team record so well last season, which made our signings so low.

Tsundere face~

Danny Green, one of the best "3d players" in the "small ball era", is also a model of grassroots players' counterattacks.

Although Yi Jianlian is not Popovich, he knows the "reverse method." Danny Green is ultimately known in the league for his three-pointers and defense. Now as long as he practice defense and three-pointers well, he will naturally get up in the future. Up.

In the past two days, Yi Jianlian has been giving Danny Green advice on defense and three-pointers. The latter also agrees with what Yi Jianlian said. The training direction has gradually shifted towards three-pointers and defense.

The original Danny Green wasted a few years in the Cavaliers, until he entered the Spurs did he find his position with the help of Popovich.

This time he was more fortunate. Yi Jianlian’s suggestion came up as soon as he came up. In Yi Jianlian’s opinion, he should be able to become stronger than the original. After all, he didn’t waste any time this time. He entered the league with the most correct one. Way.
