Chapter 763 [Open Training Session, Let Messi Get Out]


On the 25th, the Kings' first open training session, all players reported that there were no injuries.Unlike other teams, the Kings didn't look for some fringe players to play in the preseason, only looking at those 15 players.This season, the Kings also had a second-round pick from the Mavericks that they resold to the Pacers, and there was no place for the rookie at all.Adelman is serious about building the team, starting with the coaching team in the summer, bringing in four experienced people as assistant coaches to co-lead the coaching staff.The four are Terry Porter, Jack Hikma, T.R.

Dunn and Bill Bayano.Porter went to interview for the Timberwolves head coach in the summer, but failed.He was too bad as a coach with the Suns and was quickly replaced by Alvin Gentry, who was not good on the spot and was more suitable for assistant.He is a close friend of Adelman, who played with the Trail Blazers as a point guard and served as Adelman's assistant coach with the Kings.Dunn also worked with Adelman, is the Kings' old assistant coach, and with everyone back, he wanted to join in the fun.Hikma spent three seasons in Houston with Shuai and was fired together.Bayano is an even older friend of Ashuai, who spent the first five years of his coaching career as an assistant coach in Portland.Vivek gave Adelman the best support, and the coaching staff had the final say on Adelman, and he also had his son join the team.Indians are good at this, they especially care about their own people, one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.Now that the coach's bench has gathered several big brains, there will be no problems in terms of tactics in the new season.The open training session was held at the AR arena, home of the Kings, which was an antique.In 1988, the arena was renovated at a cost of $40 million and renamed Arco Arena 2, which is now home to the Kings and the WNBA's Sacramento Monarchs.As a basketball court, it can only accommodate 17,317 spectators, and it belongs to the small arena in the league.In previous years, Kings fans had lost their enthusiasm and their home attendance was not high.This year is different, fans and spectators are a little impatient, and there is no need to advertise the training session when it is full.The reporter interviewed several fans wearing Wang Jun's No. 4 jersey outside the stadium, and his clothes were out of stock many times, almost one of them was in hand, and this was also the case in other places.A middle-aged fan in his forties said: "I never thought there would be a team like this, with two superstars and so many All-Star veterans than any team in NBA history."

They were all strong at their peak, and even when they were old, I still wanted to see them. ”A young female fan said: "I love Wang Jun, he is the strongest scorer in NBA history, he came to the king and it feels like a dream, thanks to Vivek." ”The players received a round of applause when they came out, and the stars exchanged ideas, all of whom were acquaintances.Yi Jianlian came up to speak, a little restrained, these are veterans who have been famous since he was a fan.If he was alone, the atmosphere would be more awkward, and it would be difficult to mingle with his teammates, and Wang Jun would be different in everything."

Brother Lian, come over here."

Wang Jun greeted him in Chinese, and then said with a smile in English: "Everyone, come and get to know my little brother, he is not very good at English, so he doesn't talk much."

Usually if he doesn't play well, everyone must not scold him if you look at my face, and the newcomer must be beaten hard, and he can't be held back.I'm sure you'll soon experience the joy of abusing him as much as I did. ”"I can't speak English well, but I can understand what you're saying" Yi Jianlian had a black line.Everyone else was happy, and Maddie chatted with Yi Jianlian about Yao Ming, who had worked with three Chinese players.As soon as Wang Jun introduced this, the atmosphere immediately became very relaxed, and Yi Jianlian naturally integrated into the circle.Moreover, no one will rely on the old man to bully him in the future, Wang Jun said that this is his brother.Vivek gave a speech, thanking the fans, welcoming the players, introducing himself and mentioning the new stadium that is being built."

I promise that the Kings will win the championship, and I promise that in a few years everyone will enjoy the best basketball game in the best arena, and we will build a dynasty" The fans applauded enthusiastically, such an antique arena is obviously not worthy of the king with unlimited potential.Today, Sacramento Mayor and former NBA celebrity Kevin Johnson was also on the scene, and he took the microphone and told everyone the good news.Sacramento will use public resources to build the new arena.On the other hand, the Kings, who ultimately managed to stay on the ground, did not have to repay the roughly $75 million loan owed to the government.The so-called public resources are the "nail households" that the relevant departments will help the king to settle the new gymnasium.A few days ago, the Kings had problems acquiring a square in the heart of the city for the construction of a new arena.Originally a foreclosure property for banks, the plaza is now controlled by a New York real estate company, and its current tenants are mainly Macy's, a well-known retailer who sells the site for menswear and furniture.If Vivek goes to negotiate, I don't know if I have to wait until the price is negotiated.Now that James and Wang Jun have arrived, the influence of the Kings has risen sharply, not to mention Messi's department stores, even Barcelona's Messi has to get out.Under pressure from the city government, Macy's quickly made a commitment to empty the site and move its menswear and furniture sales offices elsewhere by next fall at the latest.Exercising the right to expropriate land doesn't happen very often, but Macy's doesn't dare to stop the king from building a new arena, otherwise it will definitely become a public enemy of the city, and don't want to sell it.The players made simple passes, and after shooting drills, they faced off in groups, with Adelman with the White Vests and First Assistant Coach Porter with the Black Vests.White team: Bibi, Wang Jun, Peja, James, Yi Jianlian.Blacks: Curry, Ray Allen, Maddy, Gibson, Miller.In interviews, the veterans said that they didn't care how much playing time they could get, and they listened to the coach's arrangement.Now, they also want to have a good fight, if they are really marginal people, they can't get over face.Especially Aaron and Maddie, they don't think they're old.Whiteside and Jerebko are on the sidelines to prepare, they are young and energetic, and they also want to prove themselves and establish themselves in the Kings."

Don't be nervous, remember what I said, be resolute when throwing, be resolute when you cut in the air, and if you hesitate, the rhythm will be gone."

Wang Jun patted Yi Jianlian on the back and said."

Understood."

Yi Jianlian nodded solemnly.Yi Jianlian jumped the ball and the game began.James dribbles the ball to the front court and organizes in the middle.He has always disliked playing power forward, but now he has to admit that Adelman's arrangement makes sense.He is the No. 4 mid organizer striker play, if the opponent is defending and the defender is standing in the middle, it is directly a misplaced opportunity.Gibson defended the main defense, James waited for Wang Jun to cover the side and then cut into the air and ran and passed the ball in.Yi Jianlian blocked Ray Allen, Wang Jun received the ball and accelerated past Miller in one step, jumped to the basket, and the action was amazing.After the NBA changed the rules, Wang Jun practiced pulling the ball, catching the ball and jumping at home, and he didn't have to be a fool to steal the step, and the first step was coherent and he could shoot half a meter to one meter more.Maddie didn't let go of the bottom corner Peja to help defend, Wang Jun jumped up with the ball in his right hand, and a backhand dunk of "looking back at the moon" smashed the ball into the basket, 2-0.Adelman's eyebrows were bent when he smiled on the sidelines, he originally planned to run in the lineup in the first half of the season, looking at the tacit understanding between Wang Jun and James, it seems that the run-in preseason can be completed.s:
