NBA: My cousin wears a watch, I wear a mid-range jumper

"What do you think?"

The special intra-team competition in the afternoon has ended!

Stotts led the coaching staff to discuss.

No one expected that this competition would become Lin Feng's exhibition game!

The continuous mid-range shots made the coaching staff on the sidelines excited!

Later in the game, Team A actually increased its defensive intensity!

But Lin Feng's ball control skills were amazing, allowing him to always smoothly carry the ball to a position one step inside the three-point line, and then pull up and hit it!

This is real skill!

"I am a little surprised why he only attacks in this area!"

"Why not step back and shoot a three!"

"He can shoot such a high percentage in the long 2-point position, so his three-point shooting percentage won't be low if he takes a small step back!"

Assistant coach Toby drew a circle on a position on the tactical board, which was the position of the [Long 4] area.

"I think he probably practices this position the most!"

"Compared with the defensive intensity encountered in three-point shooting, the defensive pressure encountered in this position is indeed the smallest!"

"he is very smart!"

"But no matter what, Lin showed his extraordinary shooting talent!"

Someone said with a smile

"If you practice this position specifically before the game, it would be a bit of a cheat!"

"In official competitions, it is still relatively easy to be targeted!"

"I think we need more games to observe!"

Someone objected.

"No! No! No!"

"I think being able to shoot 15 of 17 in the competition is enough to prove his strength!"

"Moreover, Lin's ball handling ability is clearly top-notch!"

"Such a talented player is worth our intensive training starting from his rookie season!"

"That’s just right, we’re going to play badly in the new season, which will give Lin enough room to make mistakes!"

"I remember that Lin didn't show such ability in the pre-draft tryout!"

"This shows that he is making rapid progress! This is true talent!"

"As for CJ, to be honest, I don’t think his talent ceiling is very high!"

The discussion began to turn into a debate!

There was no doubt about the other starting positions!

But when it came to the starting point guard, the coaching staff was divided into two factions, some supporting Lin Feng and some supporting C..J-McCollum's!

"Terry, what's your opinion?"

"Should we decide to start Lin or let CJ start as originally planned?"

In the end, the decision came to the hands of head coach Stotts!

"My choice is Lin!"

Stotts said with a smile.

As for the reasons, there could be many for Stotts!

But the most important reason is only one: Lillard picked Lin Feng as the starting player!

Stotts didn't know what kind of personal relationship Lillard and Lin Feng had, but this time Lillard's opinion seemed particularly firm!

Is there really hope to create a miracle in the new season?

Stotts was not sure at all!

But he had decided to cooperate with Lillard to go crazy!

What if, it succeeded?

Stotts has coached the Trail Blazers for three seasons!

The best result was leading the team to the Western Conference semifinals, and finally lost to the Spurs 1:4!

Who doesn't want to lead the team to a further step?

……

"I got two more [Attribute Enhancement Cards]!"

Lin Feng was checking the system rewards at this time!

"Let's continue to use it in the [Long 4] zone!"

Lin Feng thought for a while and felt that it would be better to improve a mid-range shooting zone to the extreme first!

In the confrontation game, Lin Feng did not encounter any interference in the [Long 4] zone at the beginning, and he could shoot whatever he wanted!

Then McCollum began to not defend Lin Feng's three-pointers, but focused on defending Lin Feng's long 2 points!

The other players of Team A also began to step forward to assist in defense!

Because Lin Feng's shooting was too [arrogant]!

The players of Team A all felt like they were slapped in the face!

In this case, Lin Feng's subsequent shots were actually interfered with a lot! He also missed a few shots!

Of course, it is another matter in the official game, when Lillard will be the opponent's key defense target!

Normally, Lin Feng's shooting environment should still be very loose!

However, increasing his hard-solving ability and standing up when Lillard is restricted will help Lin Feng quickly consolidate his starting position!

Therefore, it is still necessary to improve the two attributes of [Anti-interference] and [Anti-block] in the [Long 4] zone!

"System! Improve the [Anti-interference] attribute of [Chang 4] zone!"

Lin Feng silently thought in his heart!

"Ding! Congratulations to the host! The [Anti-interference] attribute of [Zone 4] has been increased to 40.%！"

Lin Feng nodded and continued to improve!

The next big test will be the first game of his professional career, and it will also be the opening game of the new season for the Trail Blazers!

Lin Feng also discovered that the [mid-range shot task] released by the system is not available in every game!

For example, after the first training game, there will be no [mid-range shot tasks] in the subsequent training games!

Even the upcoming preseason games will not have any!

The next [mid-range shot task] will jump directly to the first game of the regular season!

This means that Lin Feng needs to cherish the opportunity to complete the [mid-range shot task]!

Although there is no penalty for failing the task, once you miss it, you will lose an opportunity to get a reward!

It will have a significant impact on the rapid improvement of Lin Feng's strength!

……

The Trail Blazers' media day is here!

The media and fans were surprised to find that this season's rookie Lin Feng seemed to be in a different position!

In the photo shoot of the team's starting lineup of five people, Lin Feng stood next to Lillard, the C position, and was considered a quasi-C position!

And when the makeup photos of the core trio were taken next, Lin Feng became one of them!

The other person was Aminu, known as the little prince of Africa!

Lin Feng smiled brightly!

And McCollum could only be sad in the substitute lineup!

He didn't seize the opportunity!

McCollum had to continue waiting for opportunities on the bench after the start of the new season!

He has become accustomed to this kind of [waiting]!

He is afraid that he will sink into this kind of [waiting]!

I hope that he will have the opportunity to start in the new season!

In McCollum's heart, he actually hoped that Lin Feng would play badly or get injured!

This is not a good mentality, but it is very real!

……

《Trail Blazers: Tanking in Progress! 》

The next day, the media reported on the Trail Blazers' media day as usual.

However, very little space and words were used!

Because a team that is destined to tank, there is not much that can attract the attention of fans!

The only thing worth noting about the Trail Blazers is perhaps that a Dragon Country player has appeared in the American League again!

This is the first time that fans have seen a Dragon Country player in the league after Yao Ming retired!

As for whether this Dragon Country player can play like Yao Ming, not many people pay attention!

Even Dragon Country fans don't have much hope!

Because Lin Feng is not a player from the Dragon Country system, it seems that he suddenly appeared!

They don't know much about Lin Feng!
