NBA: Strongest In The History Of Holding A Large Ball

Chang Tiancheng returned home, lay on the bed, and thought for a moment about what Popovich had just said to him.

He naturally has the blessing of steel and iron now, as long as he pays more attention during the game and usually ensures rest, unlike before, if he is in the training ground except for the game, it is actually not so easy to get injured again.

But from Popovich's point of view, he quickly understood why Popovich was so concerned about his health.

Last season, he was overly excited after joining the Spurs, and he was immersed in the joy of regaining his life every day. In successive away games, he was not aware of the accumulated fatigue in his body, so he was injured.

But now the situation is different from then, since the last injury, I have paid great attention to the protection of my body, and after each game, I will carefully check my body to make sure that there is no discomfort in any part of the body.

But Popovich didn't know about the change in his habits, he only knew that Chang Tiancheng was injured last season because of excessive fatigue, so as early as the offseason, he had made a fairly detailed rotation plan for Chang Tiancheng. While not as exaggerated as former Spurs player Leonard who doesn't play back-to-back games, it's already quite an enviable amount of rest compared to other players.

The Spurs players are also aware of the coach's arrangements, but they don't have any opinions about them. They know very well that if a team wants to make the playoffs, or even go for a championship, it must be able to do so if they are healthy. Therefore, they also support Chang Tiancheng's rotation from the bottom of their hearts.

Wembanyama's situation is similar to Chang Tiancheng.

Although he has not suffered any major injuries so far, if he is constantly allowed to fight in the beastly NBA interior with his relatively thin physique, it is only a matter of time before he is afraid of injury.

So Popovich simply let Wembanyama take a break with Chang Tiancheng, but he can do some things during the break, such as doing strength training with the team's trainers.

Chang Tiancheng was about to get up from bed and continue watching the game video when there was a sudden knock on the door of the apartment.

Chang Tiancheng opened the door and found that he could only see the neck of the person who came, and he walked out of the apartment, only to see that the person who came was Wembanyama.

"Chang, the place where you live here is too small, why don't you change to a bigger house. Wembanyama said hello to Chang Tiancheng, and without asking Chang Tiancheng's consent, he lowered his head and bent over, and walked into Chang Tiancheng's small apartment.

"It's not every day that I receive guests who are taller than 220 cm. Chang Tiancheng closed the door of the apartment, took out a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and handed it to Wembanyama.

"Do you usually drink this?" Wembanyama took the water bottle, a few hundred milliliters of water in his hand as if it were more like a bottle of oral solution.

"We're professionals, so it's better not to drink messy stuff. Chang Tiancheng said, and brought himself a bottle of ice water.

Wembanyama originally wanted to sit on Chang Tiancheng's stool, but after sitting on it, he found that he was still a little uncomfortable, so he simply sat down on Chang Tiancheng's carpet so that he could fully straighten his legs.

He looked at the videotapes on Chang Tiancheng's TV, and asked with some curiosity: "Why do you like watching videos so much, you have to watch them on holidays... Don't you have enough of the team's training sessions?"

"I want to find some details of the game that the analysts haven't talked about. Chang Tiancheng looked a little reluctant to answer Wembanyama's question, with an expression of "What are you doing here, hurry up and go, don't bother me".

Wembanyama didn't feel Chang Tiancheng's emotions at all, and drank the bottle of ice water in his hand: "Chang, don't you think your life is a little too monotonous? "

Aren't you too?" Chang Tiancheng pulled over the chair and sat down.

As far as he knows, Wembanyama has been preparing for the NBA since he was a teenager, including but not limited to polishing his skills, improving his physical fitness, gaining muscle in an orderly manner, planning his diet, and so on.

"Honestly, often. Wembanyama threw the water bottle in his hand into Chang Tiancheng's trash can with a shooting motion, "Actually, at the beginning, I didn't understand what it meant to be in the NBA. All I know is that that's a great honor for a basketball player, and when you're drafted by the NBA, it means you're one of the hundreds of best players in the world.

Chang Tiancheng didn't answer, just looked at Wembanyama quietly.

Wembanyama continued: "I grew up winning a lot, so when I got to the NBA, I thought I could keep winning like that until I won a championship.

"But you had a setback in the last game, and it made you realize that you're not the best guy in the NBA right now, and that led to a shake in your belief in leading the team to a championship. Chang Tiancheng took another sip of ice water and said to Wembanyama.

After hearing Chang Tiancheng's words, Wembanyama's eyes widened: "Chang, could it be that you have some mind-reading skills?"

"No, it's just that you wrote your emotions on your face." The corners of Chang Tiancheng's mouth rose slightly, "Moreover, I can understand your feelings." is the kind of person who has always been the strongest player in basketball since he was a child, but now in the NBA, his strength is not so dominant.

Wembanyama was a little excited, sat on the ground and leaned over to Chang Tiancheng, and grabbed Chang Tiancheng's hand, "Great! Sure enough, coming to you is the right choice, I finally found someone who can understand my feelings!" "

No, Victor, in fact, this kind of person abounds in the NBA. Chang Tiancheng said, "You know what? Every player who can enter the NBA, before they enter the NBA, is the Jordan of their own story.

Wembanyama savored Chang Tiancheng's words carefully, lowered his head and fell into deep thought. But soon, he came back to his senses: "Chang, since I played the Lakers, I think it is difficult to win the championship with my own ability." But if you were to be added, I think we would be able to do it.

Chang Tiancheng narrowed his eyes, and a trace of doubt rose in his heart: Why did this kid suddenly talk about this?
