111 Sudden

Test whether you are confident?

Testing is modest?

Is the test honest?

In four or five seconds, several thoughts flashed through Li Zhe's mind.

Through news and social networks, he has a certain understanding of how Phil handles things, such as expelling a person between chatting and laughing, unwilling to make the relationship between players too good, and interviewing physical training trainers to ask some irrelevant questions.

In short, you don’t play according to common sense, but no matter what, if you require three days to master the triangle attack, you are definitely pretending to be confused. Putting aside a big tactical manual, "mastering" is also a subjective standard that is difficult to quantify.

After thinking about it, Li Zhe couldn't guess Phil's intention and chose to answer truthfully.

"I do my best."

"Then I hope you can master it as soon as possible." Phil closed his smile, "because we have many excellent players. As one of them, you must learn to cooperate with others instead of playing at will according to your college style. Do you understand?"

Hearing this, Li Zhe instantly realized that his true intention was to emphasize the need to abide by the rules.

Thinking about this, he immediately replied: "I understand."

"Okay, you go out." Phil waved.

Li Zhe stood up and left the office. He had just walked out a few steps and saw Brian Xiao enter again.

Walking all the way to the stadium, he focused on thinking about why Phil specifically emphasized the need to abide by the rules.

First of all, I thought of too much news about how he formulated tactics for the team before. College coach Tim took the initiative to mention it several times, and many media and fans speculated that Chucky Brown was just a puppet during the Summer League game.

As a famous coach of the generation, Phil naturally has a different temper than Tim and Chucky Brown. He will definitely not allow anyone to violate authority. What's more, Phil rarely calls for a timeout, which may be more sensitive in this regard.

This request for three days is very likely to be to sharpen his spirit and say it casually.

If there is a deeper reason, it must be that the triangular offense is difficult to compatible with the super point guard.

This is not a rumor. After all, Phil himself did not use BJ Armstrong, who was stronger in all aspects, as the point guard during the Bulls, but instead chose Paxson. Phil's three disciples, Clemens, Cott Lambis, and Brian Shaw, tried to promote a triangle offense after becoming the head coach, and without exception, he had a stumble with the team's point guard.

Thinking of this, Li Zhe had a headache.

If you fight strictly according to the triangular offensive tactics, your personal data will inevitably be ugly.

Kidd was like this back then. The Mavericks averaged 16.6 points per game the previous season, but after the Mavericks implemented a triangle offense, their average score dropped sharply to less than 10 points.

Li Zhe didn't care about scoring, but the sponsors cared about it, and they had to do things after collecting the money.

Of course, the most important thing is that being suppressed will be very unhappy. After all, even Jordan and Kobe were initially resistant to the triangular offense. Even if they accepted it later, it was because they could win the championship and be willful, and he did not have that kind of transcendent position.

If you don't strictly follow the triangular offensive tactics, Phil may feel that he is challenging his prestige. Although he will not be sent away by the team like Kidd, his playing time and other aspects are likely to be affected.

After racking his brains, Li Zhe did not think of how to solve this embarrassing situation, so he could only choose to let it go.

Back at the stadium, the tactical drills continued, and Walton continued to be responsible for giving the explanation.

Taking advantage of the break, Li Zhe simply expressed his concerns about quickly mastering the triangular offense.

Walton shook his head immediately after hearing this, "I don't think you have to worry. Judging from your college and summer league games, you have a very mature understanding of the unball running position. The same is true for the unball running principle in the triangular offensive tactics..."

As a confused person in the authorities, after listening to Walton's explanation, Li Zhe felt a little calm, at least he had to choose.



The morning training ends at 12 o'clock. According to the team's regulations, many players have to be interviewed.

Li Zhe was naturally among them. As a player who often creates focus news, a large number of reporters surrounded him, with more than interviews with Kobe, so many other players could only wait, which made the scene a little awkward.

Seeing this situation, he deliberately streamlined his answers and hoped that the interview would end early.

But the reporter has many questions, from the trivial questions such as when to arrive at the training base, how to arrive at the training base, to the big questions that are difficult to briefly describe, such as what hope is for the preseason, and how much understanding of the team's tactics.

When he answered all the questions, he found that the teammates who were waiting had already disappeared. Even Kobe had left, leaving only Walton shooting on the sidelines, as if he was waiting for him.

The afternoon training start time was set at one point, and Li Zhe invited Walton to have a meal together.

The two of them didn't choose a place, so they just made some arrangements in the Toyota Sports Center.

When I returned to the stadium, most of my teammates were already in place, but many were calling or listening to music.

The two walked to the sidelines and sat down, and Li Zhe said casually: "It seems that everyone has no intention?"

Walton shrugged: "There is a difference between the NBA and the university. Most players are rich and have the conditions to conduct personal special training based on their own situation. In addition, organizing the whole team to practice together is troublesome and costly, so there are fewer joint training on this day. Even if there is, there are fewer trainings in the afternoon like this. The team hopes that everyone will find the rhythm again as soon as possible."

The two of them talked a few more times, and the training officially began in the afternoon.

The first thing to do was physical training. With the help of trainers such as Gary Witty, Li Zhe warmed up with other players, and then performed regular training such as back-running, 3/4 sprints, and four-point movement in the 3-second zone. However, veterans such as Kobe and Fisher did not participate, but continued to practice shooting, perhaps because they felt it was unnecessary.

After the routine training, Gary Witty took Li Zhe to the gym again, introduced the methods of using various equipment one by one, informed the key points of various training exercises, and finally demonstrated it personally.

Li Zhe can do these things, but he also did them again. Maybe because he was too relaxed and lazy during the five-day vacation. After finishing the full set of movements, he felt tired, and his T-shirt's chest and back were completely wet.

By 4 o'clock, Walton informed Li Zhe that the joint training had ended and the remaining time could be arranged freely.

He immediately left the gym and planned to go to the locker room to wash up briefly, then go home to think about how to get more personal data under the triangular tactical system. In addition, he had to inform the team in advance to lower expectations to avoid the embarrassment of various copywriting publicity.

But as soon as he walked into the stadium, Fisher stopped him.

"Hey, Jamie, come in a one-on-one single fight?"

"One other day..."

Li Zhe didn't want to disrupt the established plan, but before he finished speaking, Fisher said loudly: "Wow, you beat me up in tactical training before, but now you don't want to give me a chance to try it out? Or do you think I don't deserve to be your opponent?"

Speaking of this, the court suddenly became quiet. Omdo and others looked at each other. Eronu and Gavry's two training camp contract players were uneasy, and only Kobe continued to shoot with a calm look on his face.

Li Zhe realized that the situation was wrong and immediately stopped. He quickly thought about the possibilities and pros and cons in a flash. Finally, he smiled and said, "How could it be? I just have something to be busy, but since you say that, then come on."
