Chapter 86 First Meeting James

Although the temperature in Memphis in January is not high, the lowest temperature is only a few degrees below zero, which is quite comfortable in general.

I chose to run to the training hall. I practice Tai Chi at home every morning before going to the gym, which was later than before.

On the way to the training hall in the morning, I saw that there were already pedestrians on the road.

"Li, are you the Grizzly Bear's Li?" A black guy shouted at him after seeing Li Tian.

"Hello, I'm Li from the Grizzlies, I'm very happy to know you." Seeing that some fans recognized him, they also smiled.

"Can you sign me? I like you very much. I heard that you run to the training hall every day. Today, there is nothing to do, so I'm going to come here to try my luck and try to see if I can meet you. I'm so lucky.

I actually met you." The fans were very happy. The first time I came here, I tried it and met Li Tian.

"So that's it. You are really lucky. I hope your good luck can bring me good luck." I am also very happy to be loved by fans.

"Li, I specially brought your jersey with me. Can you help me sign the autograph?" The young man took out the jersey and signature pen that had been prepared long ago.

"Haha, my dear friend, you are prepared for it. What reason do you have to refuse your request?" Li Tian took the jersey and signed his name for him.

Return the jersey to the fans, "Thank you for your love for me, do you need a photo?" After signing the autograph, he took the initiative to take a photo.

"Is it really OK? I'm so happy." The two took a photo together.

After finishing the group photo, Li Tian continued to run to the stadium.

"Li, you must beat James to win this game today." The black guy clenched his fists and cheered for Li Tian. "I will wear your signature jersey to the stadium to watch the game."

"Thank you, your good luck will also bring me good luck, and we will definitely win this game." Li Tian responded to the fan.

Come to the stadium.

Started a day of training.

I decided yesterday that I would not add some new skills to train, because exploring new skills will take a lot of time and the effect may not be good.

In the Grizzlies, there is no coach who can guide him. Guy, who is in the same position as him, is not as good as himself now. He has offensive ability, but it is not outstanding. If you don’t have any defense, then forget it, it’s better to be better than yourself.

.

Gasol and himself have some overlap, but the development directions of the two are somewhat different. Gasol's skills can only be referenced, but they cannot be copied and copied onto him.

He was training at noon, and in the afternoon Mark arranged some tactical training.

Mark's tactical training is very simple, which is to rush out the outside and then grab the inside, without any effective strategy at all, and he is also very poor in adapting to the situation.

The teachings to the players were even worse. Neither Guy nor Conley, nor even Lowry, had been trained. The game actually kept Conley on the bench.

...

It was 8:00 pm, and the players of both teams began to warm up.

Looking at the Cavaliers' record this year, it's not like the team that participated in the Finals last year.

The Cleveland Cavaliers did make all fans shine last season.

Especially Cleveland fans hope that James can bring Cleveland a championship, and the same is true for James. He is a pride in heaven. When he joined the league, he took it as his responsibility to bring Cleveland a championship.

Fans full of hope before the finals.

After four games, all fans were unwilling to believe that such a powerful Cavalier, coupled with the extremely powerful James, did not even bring a victory to the team.

After the finals, Duncan left a classic saying, "The future belongs to you!"

This sentence deceived James for many years. It was not until he formed the Big Three that James was able to touch the championship ring. Just when the Big Three was in full swing, he wanted to establish a dynasty and was educated by Duncan.

The establishment of the dynasty failed, and the three giants disintegrated from then on.

Look at the current Cavaliers team, only James can still catch his eye. Big Z is now very strong and half of it. Look at other players, they are all rookies who have not entered the NBA for a few years.

"I feel sorry for James. If there were one or two powerful assistants, I wouldn't say whether I could win the championship last season, but I would definitely not lose four games in a row."

During the warm-up, Li Tian also met James for the first time. He had never met James before. This was the first time the Grizzlies and the Cavaliers fought.

Looking at James' dunk, it's really a violent aesthetic. James has not developed too many technologies yet. Many of them rely on his strong physical fitness to hit the basket. Many teams' inside lines were hit by James.

"How is Li? Are you afraid to look at James?" After Gasol made a mid-range shot, he came to Li Tian. He knew the conflict between Li Tian and James.

"Haha, what's there to be afraid of? Don't worry at all. I'm just a substitute, what are you worried about?" Li Tian was also very bachelor, not worried at all.

If I were myself some time ago, I would still be a little worried that James during this period was not the same as in the later period. He would have a chance to use his power and Tai Chi to combine it.

"bump!"

There is a powerful dunk.

The sound was loud. Guy saw James' dunk and his hands trembled unconsciously, and he shot three times.

"Li, now do you still think you are a substitute and won't match James? Look at our team's small forward." Gasol just told him that Guy is not worthy of being the team's starter.

"Why don't you push me? How about Paul?" Li Tian looked at Gasol with fun.

"Fuck, I won't push him. Just his weight is as strong as he is. Besides, I'm a power forward, he's a small forward, and I can't bully him because of his height." Gasol was shameless enough.

Gasol patted Li Tian on the shoulder, as if saying, "James' defense depends on you."

James brought a great impact to Li Tian. Compared with James, his status is very different.

The other party's status as a knight is definitely the "emperor", otherwise he would not have been released by the knight.

I don’t even have a stable playing time, and I’m often suspended from Mark’s team at any time.

During the draft, because of James' words, Li Tian almost missed the opportunity to enter the NBA and needed to start from the summer league. Fortunately, the Grizzlies chose themselves.

...

Back in the locker room, Mark once again emphasized the need to follow the tactics of the game he arranged.

"Guy, your task is the heaviest today. You must limit James and try to block him outside the three-point line. If James breaks through Guy, Paul, Milicic, you must do a good job in assisting defense at the basket.

Block James from the penalty area, and the outside players can follow our previous arrangements." Mark felt that if you only need to limit James, there would be no problem in this game.

What Mark didn't know was that it was not so easy for the Grizzlies to tie them together to limit James.

Gasol didn't say anything, "Assisting defense is definitely necessary, but he doesn't agree with this defensive arrangement. The best way is to defend James closely by one player, and other players defend other Cavaliers players and let James defeat him alone.

If you lose, you can only admit it. James is very tired this season and consumes James' physical strength infinitely. The Grizzlies have the chance, and the other Cavaliers have average abilities."

The Grizzlies can use the substitute to defeat the Cavaliers.
