When the call was connected, it turned out that it was not the familiar voice, but his relative.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Qian was in a state of confusion.

The guy who once taught him how to attack hard at the basket... actually passed away???

Didn’t you say I was just feeling a little unwell? Why did I suddenly die all of a sudden???

Isn't he only 60 years old? This is obviously not old in this era.

Death from a heart attack??? How could this happen??? Are you kidding me???

But looking at the news on the TV and remembering the words that had just been sent to him on his mobile phone, Tang Qian had to accept this fact.

In the early morning of September 13, 2015, NBA legend and three-time MVP winner Moses Malone passed away suddenly due to a heart attack at his home in Norfolk, Virginia. He was also the second person to die of a heart attack this year.

NBA star. A month ago, Daryl Dawkins, nicknamed "Chocolate Bomb" and the originator of violent basketball, also passed away due to heart disease. Heart disease is really a basketball player

A high-risk disease, Tang Qian thought, would he die in this way one day? He couldn't tell.

Because it was too sudden, Tang Qian was a little absent-minded during today's training. To be honest, Moses Malone actually took advantage of Tang Qian. The training promised for 5 million U.S. dollars was only completed for one season.

It's really "cheap" for the latter... I hope you will remember that you still owe me money.

Good to go, Mr. Prophet.

On that day, because there was no game and Moses Malone had a very high career achievement, all major sports TV stations reported the death of Moses Malone. Barkley claimed that he received a lot of care from Moses Malone and he directly

Call him "Dad". (This is true). Because Barkley's template for joining the NBA is Moses Malone. According to him, his rebounding method was also taught by Moses Malone, so he is really good at it.

Respect him. The title "Dad" is not used lightly.

Sports Illustrated also used a large page to talk about this matter.

ESPN played the nostalgia card and started playing some precious old videos of Moses Malone.

Tang Qian also wrote on his personal Twitter and personal scarf:

Rest in peace, Mr. Prophet, you are a legend.

A few days later, the Lakers' pre-game training camp began, a week earlier than usual. This was requested by Larry Brown, and he directly said in a text message to everyone: Whoever is late will be in the preseason.

Don't even think about playing in a game.

This is really cruel. No wonder the management and players don't like this old man very much. It really makes sense.

It's completely different from D'Antoni last season.

After hard training in the offseason, Tang Qian's weight has now increased to 307.8 pounds. His strength crystal brick has broken through, rising from seven and a half to eight full pounds, and he has obtained a golden strength amplification card. Therefore, his overall strength has risen to a higher level.

A typical example is the bench press, which has stabilized at 475 pounds from 435 pounds in the offseason! In other words, his bench press has now reached a stable number of 215.4563758KG. This is already more than countless people in the NBA.

Absolute number one in active service.

This growth rate even surprised Tim Glover, because the later you go, the harder it is to increase the weight of the bench press. 10 pounds is a big threshold, but you are lucky, and you gain 40 pounds in one breath!!! This is from

An increase of 40 pounds on the basis of 435 pounds! It is not an increase of 40 pounds on the basis of dozens of pounds. It is simply a physical monster! In fact, it was not that much at first, but as soon as the crystal brick broke through, the effect was obvious immediately, and it directly improved by one

cut.

So now Tang Qian can directly say that he is at least in the top five in bench press in NBA history.

He has no opponent in the current league. In terms of upper body strength, he is currently invincible.

In addition, the tonnage has also increased by nearly 17 pounds. These are all his physical advantages. After the test, Tim Glover could only shake his head and said, this is one of the human specimens created by God, and the No. 23 of the Cavaliers.

All the same, they are not normal people.

It is rare in NBA history to achieve this level while maintaining athletic ability. Tang Qian has passed the threshold of "heavy center" and became a "behemoth center". However, the burden on physical fitness is

It was obviously aggravated, which made his physical fitness that he had been practicing hard during the offseason, and the physical crystal bricks obviously increased from seven to seven and a half, but he still only had 38 to 39 minutes of physical fitness at most. If it exceeds, his condition will decline rapidly. But

It's still much better than last year when I couldn't play 36 minutes.

If you adopt a method of releasing water on one end of the offense and defense, you can stay on the court longer.

Looking at him from a distance, he was 1 to 2 times bigger than last season, his arms were thicker, his body was bigger, and he looked very oppressive. So as soon as he walked into Toyota Sports Center, he attracted

caught the attention of many people.

Nick Young said directly: "Did you take muscle-building powder + steroids? You were already big, but now you have surpassed the 'big shark' during the Magic period, right? Your arms, my God, are hot.

You can go directly to acting in monster movies, right?" Muscle stick, Landry has also recovered from the operation, he also exclaimed with a look on his face: "Here, your arm, I'll go, I want to ask, you this bed

How much did you push? The stability set was more than 450 pounds, right?"

"It's no problem to stabilize a group with 475 pounds." Tang Qian said with a smile. The entire training ground suddenly caused a sensation because of his words.

475 pounds, so domineering. This is already the top bench press strength data in the basketball world. Even Ben Wallace, O'Neal, Karl Malone, etc. can't reach it. This is really scary. This offseason

Sure enough, the training is not in vain, the visual effects alone can give people a strong sense of oppression. And this is not the 1990s, this is an era where space insiders are dominant, and the 300+ pound "behemoth center" has the advantages of tonnage and strength.

too big.

Jimmy Butler originally felt that he was stronger, but after looking at No. 29, he forgot about it and secretly cursed Tang Qian as a pervert.

However, some people are worried: "Will it affect your athletic ability and agility?"

Tang Qian shook his head and said: "Everything is OK, I am still me, just stronger than last season."

"That's great! But if it's hot, you still have to pay attention. 300+ pounds of weight puts a huge load on the body. Many people can't feel it for a while, but in the end the body can't bear it. You..."

"Don't worry, I will take good care of my body. The offseason is over. Put away your fun. In the new season, we are ready to start fighting." Tang Qian said: "What is the goal for this season?"

"champion!"

"What???"

"champion!!"

"What is it???????"

"champion!!!"

But just after he finished speaking, an old and deep voice said slowly: "The momentum is good, but the championship is not that easy to win." Everyone turned around and saw this man wearing glasses and white hair, not this one

Who will be the new head coach this season?

"Hello, Mr. Brown." He has seniority and is old, so there is nothing wrong with calling him that.

But Larry Brown just nodded and said without any emotional fluctuations: "In the new season, everyone's position is uncertain. If you want to start, just work hard in these half months. Who can help me?"

I will marry whoever is more useful. Otherwise..." He glanced at everyone through his glasses and said, "No matter how famous he is, I will let him sit on the bench."

"Believe me, if I can say something, I will do it."

"If you don't believe it, just try it. I welcome it."

It started with a high-pressure policy, which was completely different from D'Antoni's era. Many people didn't react at first and continued the relaxed atmosphere of last season. This directly made Larry Brown say without emotion: "Look

You still have so much time and energy to be happy, so that’s great. You can do 10 more sets of return runs and 10 more sets of obstacle dribbling.” At first, everyone tolerated it, but as time went on, problems arose.

Larry Brown is indeed a guy with a "very bad reputation". Among Qian Sheng coaches, there are probably few who are worse than him. Five days later, Bosh was the first to stand up and fight back, but he didn't care at all.

, in his opinion, he has seen too much of Bosh, a celebrity, so Youyou said: "You think I want to talk about you? I really just can't stand it anymore before talking about you, you know? Look at it.

What did you do in that position just now? Did you read the tactical manual I gave you carefully? Please tell me what is written on line 17 on page 3? What made you position like that?"

"I thought it was better to do this. I thought one person could defend this attack!" Bosh also got angry and said.

Everyone wanted to persuade, but Larry Brown stretched out his hand, shook his head and said: "Then let's try it and see if your method works better or mine. Come on, don't talk nonsense, just go directly

Yes, those who talk nonsense are all cowards. There can be people with average ability in my team, but there can't be cowards. Well, there can't be any cowards." "Come here! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Bosh said today

He is the one who has been named and criticized the most. He can't bear it and thinks it's normal to lose face. After all, he was still a jerk last season? He felt unhappy when he was said so to his face.

After some practice, Bosh was completely defeated. His defensive method only succeeded 2 times out of 10 goals.

On the other side, the success rate is as high as 70%! Note that this is still using Thackeray + Randall, one is a standard "iron bench" and the other is a rookie who only played a few dozen games last year and was reimbursed for the season.

It's obviously not a very strong defensive card. "How is it? Do you know that you are a little shrimp?" Larry Brown's words are really irritating, but this is really his style. He was so good at what Milisi said back then.

Qi had a mental breakdown and said that "little potato" Nate Robinson almost beat him. It was not unreasonable. However, he simply "went his own way" and was absolutely not affected or coerced by the outside world.

In his own words, what do you think you are? The big names I have coached are much better than you, and the superstars I have watched are much more powerful than you. How can I still be afraid of you?

Bosh's face turned even red after being so publicly "slapped" by Larry Brown. He wanted to regain his face, so he shouted loudly: "Regular basketball games are not simple street games like this. They have to be 5vs5."

See the problem. Just now it’s not counted.”

"Chris, forget it, there's no need..." Before Thackeray could finish speaking, Larry Brown said: "No, let him say, let's continue playing. You know, I'm a kid like you."

I don’t take it seriously at all. From the beginning, it’s 5 vs. 5 and listen to him. Some people don’t know why they are so bad unless they are completely slapped in the face.”

"I..." Bosh has never seen a head coach speak like this. He is too tough and does not save face for the star players at all.

He actually didn't know that even in the Pistons back then, Billups said that he wanted to strangle Larry Brown to death every time he practiced. This shows how "brutal" and "cold" this old man is.

”.

The most frightening thing is that Bosh is basically the main force of the team, except that Tang Qian is not here. What about Larry Brown? There is also no Tang Qian, and they are all substitutes from last season. Originally, Bosh had some concerns.

But when he saw that the other party looked down on him so much, he was so angry that he no longer had any reason to say: "Don't blame me for not giving you face today!!!"

"You weak little guy, let's wait until you do it. Wait until you cry." After Larry Brown said this, he turned around, and then explained the candidates on his side, and then the two sides began to talk to each other.
