By the time I came out of James's house, it was close to midnight.

Chang Tiancheng walked on the streets of Los Angeles at night, looked at the still brightly lit stores around him, and sighed softly.

The city where the Spurs are located is San Antonio, and that's a small town. Compared to the bustling Los Angeles, it is still much worse.

The team hasn't informed them when they're going to report, but since everyone has shown such a high level of sincerity, it's better to go there earlier.

Thinking of this, Chang Tiancheng decided to go back to sleep first, wait until tomorrow morning to get up and contact the landlord to vacate his small apartment in Los Angeles, and then leave for San Antonio.

Chang Tian had planned to do so, but the next day, while still asleep, he was woken up by a knock on the door.

Chang Tiancheng rubbed his eyes, casually pulled a piece of clothing and draped it over his body, and opened the door of the apartment.

Standing outside the door are none other than Spurs head coach Popovich and Spurs legend and all-time number one forward Tim Duncan.

Chang Tiancheng looked at the two of them blankly, and it took a while before he came back to his senses, and then quickly took the two into his small apartment.

The originally small apartment became a little crowded in an instant after three people poured in, especially a giant man like Duncan, who was 211 centimeters.

Since he hadn't thought that someone would come to visit him, Chang Tiancheng's apartment didn't have a chair for guests to sit on. Therefore, he had to let Duncan sit on his bed, and then pull his usual computer chair over for Popovich to sit down, and he had to find a corner to stand.

Popovich and Duncan did not dislike the conditions of Chang Tiancheng's apartment, but Duncan took the initiative to give up a little place on the bed and motioned for Chang Tiancheng to sit over.

Just when Chang Tiancheng was still hesitating whether to sit down, Popovich spoke: "Chang, your apartment is very good, I like this simple life." "

It's a good fit for Spurs. Duncan added.

Seeing that the two of them took the initiative to speak, Chang Tiancheng was no longer nervous, he first took a deep breath, and then asked: "Coach Bobo, Tim, why did you come here in person?" "

You are the future star of the team, we came to meet you early, is there anything wrong?" Popovich said with a smile.

This sentence suddenly made Chang Tiancheng feel a little heart rate soaring. The star of the house... His future head coach didn't say anything about it, but said he was the team's future star

? Could it be that Coach Popovich knew he had the system?

"We watched the video of your last game and liked your style of play. Seeing that Chang Tiancheng didn't sit next to him for a long time, Duncan simply stretched out his big hand and pulled Chang Tiancheng over.

'You're smart and calm enough when you're playing. But I think the most valuable thing is that even when you play with superstars, you can show a certain level of leadership, rather than blindly playing around superstars. "You know, the Spurs' style is teamwork, and you have that ability to bring players together.

Chang Tiancheng blinked, but the doubts in his heart gradually unraveled.

I see, is this the reason for the upgrade of the leader's aura skill in his own system? is because when he was on the same stage with the superstar, he was not disturbed by the superstar, but insisted on his own rhythm of the game, and even brought the superstar on the court into his own rhythm.

Seeing Chang Tiancheng stunned in place, Duncan patted Chang Tiancheng on the shoulder vigorously: "Hey, Chang! What's the matter with you, why do you cut off the power from time to time?"

Chang Tiancheng came back to his senses and hurriedly replied: "No, no, I'm just a little excited, and now I still feel like a dream."

"Hahaha, don't worry, you'll get used to it soon. Coach Popovich laughed, "We want you to report to the team today, and judging by the style of your room, it shouldn't be too difficult for you." "

Are you saying that I don't have much in my luggage... Chang Tiancheng complained in his heart.

"We'll take care of the apartment for you, and if you can, you can pack up and go with us now. Duncan said from the side.

"Now?" Chang Tiancheng asked suspiciously, "Aren't we going to look at the flight information first?"

"We chartered a plane here."

Sitting

on the plane to San Antonio, Chang Tiancheng leaned against the window and looked out, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

Just a few days ago, he was a rookie who was about to be eliminated by the NBA, but in the blink of an eye, he was about to become the star of a team, and he also enjoyed the treatment of a charter flight.

Thinking of this, Chang Tiancheng felt a trace of pressure rise in his heart.

The Spurs have shown enough sincerity to themselves, and judging from Coach Bobo's previous words, the team will also invest a certain amount of resources in itself in the future, if in this case, he does not lead the team to a good result...

"Always, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Duncan walked over with two glasses of juice in his hand.

He walked to the opposite side of Chang Tiancheng and sat down, and then handed Chang Tiancheng a glass of juice.

Chang Tiancheng hurriedly took it with both hands: "Tim, how do you see that I am under pressure."

"Don't forget, I studied psychology. Duncan smiled, "To be honest, I felt that way when I was drafted by the team.

"Do you also have psychological pressure?" Chang Tiancheng was a little surprised.

Tim Duncan, nicknamed "The Stone Buddha", is a man who has an incredibly calm expression on his face no matter what happens. It is hard to imagine that such a person would have so-called psychological pressure.

"Of course there is. After all, we have the trust of an entire city on our shoulders. Duncan shrugged his shoulders and replied, "From the day you joined the team, there were not just the team itself, but thousands of fans standing behind you. They're all expecting you to take the team to higher positions.

"But after all, I haven't even played a full game, if I live up to the trust of the team and the fans..."

Duncan drank the juice from the cup, "As athletes, once we lose our self-confidence, it is difficult to play at a high level in the arena.

After hearing this, Chang Tiancheng nodded thoughtfully.

"What's more, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself this season, you just need to hone your skills and accumulate experience in the game. Duncan stood up with the empty cup, "After all... We don't have any pressure to do so. Rather, the more we lose this season, the better. "
