MTL - Basketball: Start with the Neuroknife-Chapter 138 The era of the championship

Latest URL: September 2.

pg1 launches Li Wan's version of "lastshot".

This is the seventh peripheral since "Let the World Focus on Orlando", "Mr. 52 Points", "Beat the Blues" and "Mr. 36 Points in the Playoffs".

Prior to this, pg1 also launched the second round of the playoffs version of "Crazy Night" and the "Crazy Night" that played against the Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals.

But so far, the first 4 models have been discontinued, and the best-selling "Bruce Beating Blues" has sold all 100,000 pieces, and Li Wan has earned 6.9 million dollars just around this set.

Adding up the 4 models, Li Wan probably earned 13 million after excluding two of the series with a little inventory.

This is also the reason why he does not receive many advertisements in China.

The money earned from endorsement and promotion for them is not as much as that of Li Wan's own brand.

Don't waste your image value so much.

Especially after launching the "Rainbow Bracers" series with nike, it sold very well and made almost 3 million dollars.

In addition, the remaining balance of $7.5 million in the first year of Nike's endorsement of sneakers, Li Wan's bank card has almost $35 million, which is converted into RMB, and there are two small goals.

Or else, sell meat muffins to make money!

At present, there are only 3 models that pg1 is pushing, and the most potential of them should be the new "last shot", because this Li Wan is going to be launched in China at the same time.

Of course, the price is definitely cheaper than the American side.

The price prepared by Li Wan is 200 RMB per piece, which is almost 1/4 of the American side.

This is the same reason that Nike's shoes in the United States will be much cheaper.

They are all gaining popularity in the country and using their influence to expand abroad...

In the afternoon, Li Wan received the first signature shoe sent to him by Nike. — "Neuroknife".

This is a spliced ​​version of magic color and Lakers color, which intersect and merge, and the pattern is very colorful, but because of the splicing, not the whole leather wrapping, the safety and stability are not enough, so there is a layer inside the shoe to use form protection.

As a result, nike simply designed a Velcro to hide the shoelaces together.

A layer of mystery.

Just like Li Wan before the game, you can never imagine what kind of shocking performance he will play tonight.

It is worth mentioning that on the "Nerve Knife" model sold for fans, there is also a design on the Velcro, which is inlaid with a small translucent round box with a small dice inside, which moves with the foot. , will keep scrolling, 3, 6, 9...

It can be said to be a small design with a full degree of fit.

Originally, this shoe had a special "China Tour" in the summer, but Li Wan decided to play the summer Olympics, so the China Tour was cancelled, and the release time was temporarily put on hold.

Fortunately, it was put on hold!

The nike people really did not expect that Li Wan would make a big noise on the stage of the Olympic Games.

Now, taking advantage of this global hot air, nike doesn't want any publicity activities. Is there a better publicity than this? Li Wan's first "signature shoes" was launched in a hurry!

Of course, if the Huaxia trip can't be done, the press conference still needs one, including the video mv about this shoe, which is clearly arranged.

With Li Wan's current popularity, it is indeed worth Nike's trouble.

At the same time, the free market has once again made a big move.

A deal that would have been made...

The Bucks sent Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons in exchange for Richard Jefferson and $3 million in cash from the Nets.

At this time, Bobby Simmons has long lost the style of the "Most Improved Player Award" that year, and is completely a substitute among pure substitutes.

There is no potential and no future.

That is to say...

pass on...

Yi Jianlian replaced Richard Jefferson, the "beast wing", who averaged 22.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game last season!

This shows that the Nets are very optimistic about the growth of Yi Jianlian.

Although his rookie season has been injured, the whole performance is still very promising, he...

All right!

The main reason is that the Nets have gradually begun to rebuild.

at the same time…

The Nets' chief assistant coach for the new season is "Silver Fox" Harris.

Yes, it was Harris who put Kobe on the bench and led the China Men's Basketball Team to the top eight in 2004.

He has always admired Yi Jianlian. In 2004, Yi Jianlian was able to participate in the Olympic Games, which was inseparable from him.

Now, it's the same situation.

When the Nets wanted to send Richard Jefferson away, he immediately recommended Yi Jianlian!

As far as Yi Jianlian's short five years in the NBA are concerned, the Nets coaching staff undoubtedly valued him the most, and his ability is indeed no problem. This can be proved by scoring 20 plus points in a single game many times in his rookie season.

but…

The body is too brittle!

Every injury drains the front office's patience with him.

If Li Wan remembers correctly, he will have to miss about 20 games due to injury in the new season.

However, the original difference is that, after winning the Olympic Games, now Yi Jianlian does not have to prove himself in such a hurry.

Although Li Wan's appearance brought him unlimited pressure at the beginning, after this Olympic Games, in the eyes of Huaxia media, it is certain that Li Wan is the "Dayao successor".

Yi Jianlian, who didn't have that much pressure, might adapt slowly and stay in this league.

Of course, his style of play must be changed. In theory, he is more suitable to be a space 4 who adapts to the "small ball era".

template...

The Eagles' starting No. 4, second in 2005, Marvin Williams!

September 6.

I don't know if the training camp for the new season is about to start, and another big deal is born.

As Li Wan knew, the Rockets sent Bobby Jackson, Dante Green and a 2009 first-round pick to the Kings for Artest the Beast.

Li Wan knew about the deal before it was announced, though.

Yao Ming sent him a message in the morning: Tomatoes, Artest is coming to the Rockets!

He is really worried!

As far as the Rockets' current lineup is concerned, as long as he and Tracy McGrady remain healthy, they can at least have a little fantasy about the championship. But now that Artest comes, if there is a "Toyota incident" and the Rockets are forced to rebuild, then his last peak period will be doomed to waste.

Although Li Wan knew that the final result of this transaction was not bad, at least Artest successfully completed his mission to Space City.

But just speaking of the premise of this transaction, the Rockets chose to gamble at a stage when Yao Ming was the least suitable for gambling. It can be seen that they did not take Yao Ming's sacrifice in contract salary seriously.

Maybe thank you for a month or two, but that's about it.

It is estimated that Yao Ming was also depressed, so he sent him a message.

But no matter what, Artest's strength really has nothing to say, especially on the defensive end. He and Shane Battier made the Rockets' perimeter an impregnable wall.

Also for this reason...

The domestic and foreign media have already blown up anyway.

As long as Artest does not make a mess, then the Rockets have the strength to win the championship!

In fact, this time the experts really didn't get it wrong.

In the original 2008-09 season, the Rockets were the only team that played the entire seven-game series with the Lakers. The Lakers' other opponents in the playoffs this season, including the Magic that entered the finals, failed to do so. to this point.

The same is true. Later, many Rockets fans regretted that if Yao Ming hadn't been injured at the time, maybe the Rockets would have been the final championship...

On September 8, after saying goodbye to Taylor all night, Li Wan departed for Ohio, and the "Ohio Four Little Boys" reunited again at Ohio University.

Watching his jersey slowly rise above the Ohio University Arena, Li Wan recalled those youthful days.

Now Li Wan has no objection that he is a "hanging b".

But in the ncaa, I followed Mike Conley and the others to fight together, defeating one formidable opponent after another, until they finally won the championship. Thinking about those days now, Li Wan couldn't help but say something in his heart:

Still cool!

Then, as honorary students of the school, Li Wan and others donated 100,000 dollars to their alma mater.

This is how Li Wan's first retired jersey was born.

"Lee, see you during the regular season, then let you see my growth this summer!"

Mike Conley is confident.

It can be seen from his figure that he has indeed undergone some hard training this summer.

but…

Li Wan is very clear that, as a representative player of the league's rapid progress, the name Conley is far from being noticed by the media.

On the other hand, Greg, I don't know if it's because of knowing Li Wan. I heard that he went to China for bone repair this summer. I don't know if the hidden danger of injury has been completely solved, but he looks like a cheerful old man. , should recover well.

Maybe this time, he will become a rising star at the No. 5 position.

Of course, this was what I thought in my heart. Before leaving, Li Wan arranged Auden's clothes for him: "Can you dress a little bit more fashionably, a person in his 60s looks like he's in his 80s..."

Done.

Seeing this "old man" chasing after him, he was not worried at all. Li Wan was sure of it now, and he really recovered very well.

On September 10, when the plane landed at Orlando Airport, Li Wan walked out of the cabin door, stretched out comfortably, looked up at the sky, the sky in Orlando is always so sunny.

Li Wan suddenly had an impulse. I want to snap my fingers handsomely, and then shout: Orlando, your king is back!

Forehead…

Sure enough, I really can't watch too much of the hot blood show, and people who watch too much are in second grade...

Recently he reviewed "Slam Dunk" again.

Back in the rented apartment, Tyron had already been cleaned up in advance, so it doesn't look like a house that hasn't been returned for months.

Coincidentally, as soon as the luggage was packed, Howard called: "Hey, man, the new season is about to start, let's have a party to celebrate?"

Um…

This is Howard.

However, it was a really good idea, because Howard also invited new people. Before training, everyone is familiar with it, which is really conducive to the running-in between each other.

Li Wan believes that Howard has this meaning.

He agreed.

Howard, who heard his promise, was also secretly relieved.

Generally speaking, this kind of pre-season training, or parties, are all organized by the team's "leading brother".

Yes, Howard is declaring his sovereignty in this way.

Magic, I'm the lead brother!

Li Wan is willing to cooperate with him, he is very happy.

Feel free to be my "Kobe"!

I Dwight Shaq Howard will take you to the "three-peat"!

During the Olympics, "Warcraft" felt that he had learned how to be the boss of a team...

Of course Li Wan didn't know that he was thinking about this matter, otherwise he would be dumbfounded.

because…

He doesn't look down on the position of the Magic's boss at all.

For Li Wan, the Magic is just a better choice than the Lakers. It can quickly get rid of the bond between Kobe and his "Pippen" image in public opinion, and also give him more opportunities to grow with the ball.

But if he really wants to let him choose a team, and then put his own brand on it, even the "Li Wan era" of this team, then...

I'm afraid there won't be Orlando's name in the top 20 choices.

Who cares about this little broken temple!

Therefore, at present, he is very clear about his own positioning, the same "alliance mercenary" as Kevin Durant...

It was also for this reason that he was so slow, he didn't realize that Howard had become a little wary of him, for fear that he coveted the position of "Magic Team Boss".

The party chose a temporarily rented villa. Since Howard was the leader of the party, the whole style was somewhat inappropriate for children.

Those "celebrities" in the atmosphere group are as cool as they dress.

For fear that others will not know what they do.

The fabric was spared, and the cherries couldn't hide it.

Tolerance is great, even if you take two steps, you have to be refreshed...

But looking at the "quick *me" on their faces, Li Wan knew...

on purpose.

"Hey man, welcome to the Magic!"

"Welcome, Jason!"

"Hey man, we're teammates again!"

Li Wan greeted the new members one by one, and of course greeted Kwame Brown with more enthusiasm. After all, he was more familiar.

He didn't immediately ask Jason Williams about dribbling skills. Training camp is coming, it's the last few days of vacation, and everyone wants to enjoy it.

A fun and successful party ended. On September 15th, most teams chose to start their training camp on this day.

Boston, Paul Pierce changed into his training uniform and headed to the training ground. Before entering, he heard the gasping sound of "ho, ho, ho". He thought there would be a good picture. Pierce stepped up and pushed open the door of the training ground. It's Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett, and they're working out hot.

Seeing Paul Pierce coming in, the eyes of the other two were full of energy.

With the arrival of the new season, the "Last Carnival" version 2.0 of the old guys is officially launched.

In Houston, Yao Ming changed his training clothes and was changing his shoes when Artest came in. The two of them were stunned for a while, but they never thought that the first time they met was to be alone.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Yao Ming greeted him with a barely warm smile.

Unexpectedly, Artest took the initiative to walk in front of Yao Ming: "Yao, you may have concerns, I understand very well, but I believe that you will soon see what I can bring to this team!"

Such a sincere attitude is very different from the fierce "beast" Yao Ming had in his previous impressions. It also made him smile again, this time no longer reluctantly:

"Welcome to Houston, Ron!"

In Cleveland, LeBron James entered the training ground at the whistle and looked at the old and new teammates who were already undergoing personal training in front of him. His eyes were full of confidence:

"Guys, let's create something big in Cleveland!"

And in the first intra-team scrimmage later, watching his teammates who made their passes one by one, he was even more sure that this time...

Sure!

I won the championship, what can I say?

Cleveland, this is for you!

Um…

That's a good one!

Denver, Carmelo Anthony looked at the familiar locker room wardrobe and wrote an unfamiliar name: Chauncey Billups, and his mood was very complicated.

There will be no more hi guys in the future, what's the point of this nba name!

There was no sweet smile on "Melon"'s face.

Since you can't have enough fun, let's focus more on the game...

He thought so, and no longer waited for other teammates to arrive, he went to the training ground to practice first.

When he arrived, he found that Chauncey Billups had been practicing free throws.

The latter also noticed the movement, looked towards him, and saw that it was Carmelo Anthony approaching, he also took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Carmelo, I'm looking forward to our new season, hope, I can help you!"

Put yourself in a position in one sentence...

Anthony felt a gust of wind blowing across his face at that time, and he couldn't remember the appearance of his big brother who took him to eat, drink and have fun.

This new big brother is a little intoxicating and a little fascinating.

Yes!

it's time!

It's time for me, Carmelo Anthony, to be the "boss"!

Los Angeles.

Kobe walked out of the parking lot with an expressionless face. A staff member passing by suddenly remembered something and chased after him and said, "Kobe, there is a courier for you. It has been sent here for a long time. I just put it in the locker room for you."

express delivery?

Kobe was stunned for a moment. He couldn't remember what he had bought online.

Moreover, even if he bought something, he should fill in his own address!

I guess which fan sent it!

"The sender seems to be Li Wan..."

The staff member's next sentence made him stunned again.

Why did that hangman suddenly send me a courier?

Kobe Bryant went to the locker room with a strange look, and he saw a courier with the sender's name on it:

Li Wan!

what a bitch...

Kobe picked up the courier and pinched it, guessing in his heart: it is so thin, it should be a document or something.

What could it be?

Thinking in my heart, Kobe didn't even look at it and threw it into the trash.

He felt that when he opened it, he would be rectified by Li Wan, so he chose...

dont see!

As long as I don't watch it, the hanging man can't fix me.

Um…

He is indeed quite familiar with Li Wan now.

As a result, after changing clothes, Kobe couldn't help but picked it up from the trash can.

People, after all, can't match that curiosity.

Even the "Black Mamba" is no exception.

But when he picked it up, he hesitated again.

To open, or not to open, that is the question...

If Director Zhang was asked to explain this scene, it would definitely be: "Hey, Kobe is fighting wits and courage with the trash can, this is so beautiful, let's see how Kobe will deal with it..."

"Check!"

In the end, Kobe was torn apart.

Inside is the photo of him supporting Li Wan, and next to it is a passage from Li Wan: Thank you, Pippen!

Gan!

Say you can't open it!

Kobe angrily shoved it back into the trash can.

"That **** actually said I was Pippen?"

That night, Kobe, who was already asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and cursed fiercely.

punishment!

wait!

He can't wait for the new season's schedule to come out, and then mark the date of the game against the Magic!

"Nice! Dwight, you are getting more and more skilled at turning around now. It seems that you have grown a lot in the national team this summer!"

The first day of the Magic's training camp was an intra-team training game, led by Li Wan and Howard respectively, to compete against each other.

At the beginning of the game, Howard's performance was very active, continuously outputting infinite output to Gortat behind him.

Now the "Polish Hammer" is indeed a hammer.

The basket confrontation was completely suppressed.

Ewing off the court was full of tears. He felt that Howard must have absorbed his earnest teachings from last season and strengthened them during the summer national team.

"Warcraft" is going to be a teacher!

Tremble, the whole alliance, "The Second Generation of the Gorillas" is coming back!

Ewing believes that the evolved Howard will become the absolute overlord of the restricted area.

Don't look at it, it's just such a turn, but with Howard's explosive physical fitness, it's so hard to guard!

Howard got more excited when he heard Ewing's compliment, and showed off his "new skills" in particular.

Two consecutive 45-degree mid-distance hits.

Yes.

Howard also developed the mid-range shot this season!

Li Wan was impressed by this matter. In the first month of the new season, Howard showed it from time to time in the game.

It was only later that he probably found out that the position of his jump shot seemed to be able to easily complete the dunk by taking a step forward...

A 40% shooting shot, a 100% shooting dunk…

This is also a hair!

Gradually, this skill is lost.

"Kwame, come up!"

Li Wan used their team's substitution opportunity at this time.

"Let him see Finals-level defense!"

Li Wan patted Kwame, and then dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Michael Pietrus was defending him.

Pietrus, nicknamed "French Jordan", is also a member of the "Golden Generation" in 2003, and the pick is not low, the 11th pick in the first round.

His explosive physicality is his strength in the draft.

It's just that in the five years of the Warriors, he didn't have the opportunity to hone his ball-handling ability. Instead, he developed a very stable three-pointer and a very good individual defense ability.

His style of play is fixed, and he has become synonymous with a wing player who can defend and shoot.

Li Wan in the ncaa period was almost his style of play. On the offensive end, he caught the ball and shot or cut the ball and layup. On the defensive end, he had a good flank defense ability.

Therefore, although Li Wan's physical fitness is not so outstanding, Michael Pietrus has become his template.

It can also be seen from this why most players cannot reach the level of their own template.

Because of the templates given by the scouts, most of the abilities are only stronger than that of the player.

Li Wan squatted continuously, shook Pietrus's center of gravity, cut in with the ball, and did not throw Pietrus away directly, but in the confrontation, he still scored the ball!

Stan Van Gundy nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of my father, no, as expected of Li Wan!

Van Gundy watched all of Li Wan's games in the Olympics. He could see at the time that Li Wan's improvement in ball-handling and breakthrough ability, and now facing Pietrus' ball-handling ability made him believe, In the new season, Li Wan will be better able to complete the task of the Magic Team's "Knife Row".

This "knife" is even sharper!

Pietrus looked at Li Wan, who was jogging back to defense, with some surprise in his eyes.

At first I heard that he is Li Wan's template.

His thought is, this special template can be me?

Now, oh no, not now, but since the second month of last season, his mind has changed:

Can this special template be me?

I should be his template, right?

How am I better than him?

seriously…

Michael Pietrus really felt that Li Wan lived the way he wanted.

The handsome appearance of this breakthrough with the ball is what Michael Pietrus thought, if he could hold the ball, he would look on the court.

"Hey, Dwight, I'll bet you $100. You're sure you won't score in the next round. Dare you bet?"

When it was Howard's turn to attack, Li Wan shouted at Howard.

When Howard heard this, his face showed dissatisfaction, and he thought to himself: Didn't you see Lao Tzu's state just now?

Without thinking, he agreed: "Then you are ready to sign the check, Li!"

He did not take the 2001 champion Kwame Brown in his eyes.

Champion and Champion…

There is also a difference!

"White Chocolate" dribbled the ball past half court at this time, and was about to direct his teammates to move, but saw Howard standing two steps out of the three-second zone, putting Kwame Brown behind him, and making a request for the ball Ready for action.

Li Wan's voice was so loud, and Jason naturally heard it. Originally, he wanted to let Howard catch the ball in a more comfortable position. Now that he is so confident, he passed the ball without hesitation.

Smoothly catching the ball, Howard's expression at the moment can definitely advertise Rejoice. While blowing the ball, he pushed his **** back, and then turned around quickly, but he was facing Kwame Brown who should have been pushed away by him. expression.

"fxxkyou!"

After a loud scolding, there was a sound of "banging".

Howard missed the ball!

Not only did he not enter, but the entire shooting posture was completely deformed.

Ewing, who was quite happy just now, and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, also froze for a while with a stunned expression.

This…

Why go back to a year ago?

No, not as good as a year ago!

In fact, it was clear from his point of view that Howard did not completely push Kwame Brown away. He took a small step back, the most important center of gravity did not shake at all, and he moved quickly to complete the interception.

"Pretty, Kwame, that's it!"

Li Wan waited to give Kwame Brown a high five, and then said to Howard, "Dude, don't forget my $100!"

Howard was very upset, full of dissatisfaction, so when it was their turn to attack again, Howard took the initiative to move towards Li Wan and said: "Do it again, dare you?"

"Can!"

Li Wan's answer was too succinct. Howard became more and more unhappy. He was holding on to his strength. This time he exerted more force, but he soon discovered that something was wrong...

no!

why this guy...

So hard!

Howard also deliberately increased his back and top this summer.

No matter how unstoppable Meng Nan was, he disarmed and surrendered under his back!

He really didn't expect...

There are still such brave people in the world!

He suddenly remembered what he had just thought:

There is also a gap between the champion and the champion!

Co-authored me below, am I 0?

"Bang!"

No entry again!

It may have been luck once, but both times were similar, and even because Howard increased the number of pouts this time, Kwame Brown's core ability was undoubtedly revealed...

It's really hard for "Warcraft" to top him!

Li Wan was not surprised at all. You must know that even after Dayao gained weight in the first year, it was a very laborious thing to single against Kwame Brown at the basket.

It wasn't until Dayao's complete weight gain ended that he really took root, and Kwame Brown gradually couldn't stand him.

Yao Ming has such a stage, the strength of the lower body is in the same type of players, and Howard, who is not outstanding in the first place, how can he succeed in singles under the basket?

Howard wants to deal with Kwame Brown, it must be a more refreshing catch.

Or the second offense after grabbing the rebound.

Fighting Kwame with his explosive physical fitness is the only way to gain the upper hand.

Li Wan knew the two of them thoroughly, so he naturally dared to make this bet with Howard.

The confrontation training in the team ended soon. Li Wan took Howard and signed him a check for 1,000 dollars, and pushed it back with a smile: "Man, as long as you agree to a request, I don't need this money..."

"what?"

Howard looked at him curiously.

It's not that he was reluctant to give up a thousand dollars. Last summer, he just signed a 5-year 85 million maximum salary contract. Now, in his eyes, the 1,000 dollars is just a tip shoved into the neck of a bitch.

Li Wan also knew that Howard disliked this thousand knives. He originally just wanted to use this bet to tell Howard what he thought:

"From now on, your singles practice with the ball under the basket must be against Kwame Brown. When you can easily score on his head, this requirement will be voided..."

Howard probably did not expect that Li Wan's request would be this.

This…

It happened to be in his heart.

Being restricted to this by Kwame Brown today, Howard is also holding his breath!

Even if Li Wan doesn't say it, he still has the idea of ​​going one-on-one with Kwame Brown...

Really Meng Nan, dare to face Meng Nan!

"Okay, Li, I promise you!"

Saying that, he stretched out his left hand, and Li Wan gave him a high five, and the agreement came into effect.

And so...

Howard should be able to adapt a lot when he faces the Lakers' top defense in the future... right?

Yes, even if the new season has not yet started, Li Wan is already preparing for the finals.

Kwame Brown's basket defense is definitely better than "Crispy Shark". If Howard can easily score on his head, he can definitely score easily on Bynum's head.

Of course, with Howard's two strokes, Li Wan didn't expect that by the time of the finals, Howard would be able to beat Brown with the ball and easily score.

As long as he can adapt to this intensity, Li Wan will be very satisfied.

Over the next few days, the training camp gradually got back on track.

After the new teammates were more integrated into the environment, Li Wan also officially asked Jason Williams for dribbling breakthroughs.

This scene was so impressive in the mind of "White Chocolate" that when he was interviewed n years later, it was still unforgettable:

"I had only been on the team for a few days. During daily training, he suddenly walked up to me and said very seriously, hey, white chocolate, I want to improve my dribbling ability, you can Any good advice?"

"At that time, he was already the hottest rising star in the league, and he even defeated Mengba in the Olympic finals, but he was still humbly learning and making up for his own shortcomings. What I thought at the time was, God, do you still want to improve? Progress, can the rest of the league still live? God! Fortunately, I'm not in the same era as you..."

His impression of Li Wan was completely changed in this time when Li Wan took the initiative to ask for advice.

"He's destined to succeed, to be a great player..."

This was the last sentence White Chocolate said when recalling this past event, and it was the only thought in his mind at the moment.

"sure, of course!"

He happily agreed to Li Wan, sharing his understanding of ball control and breakthrough throughout his career.

After Li Wan had a better understanding of some details, it was boring training...

Knew it!

Talent is not enough, training together!

He can understand why there are so many small details in Kobe's post-up singles. If he can be like Michael Jordan, smoking a cigarette in the air and waiting for the opponent to land first before shooting.

What little details does he use to study!

The same is true for Li Wan. If he really wants to drain all his talents, does he still need to practice dribbling and breakthrough skills like this?

The "white chocolate" passing style was added to the proficiency panel package when Jason Williams patiently guided Li Wan's ball-handling rhythm. It's just that Li Wan should not be able to learn...

Such bells and whistles!

What is there to learn...

"Jason, how did you do that elbow pass?"

Don't learn shit!

It's not cool to play, what kind of ball are you playing!

This frightened Stan Van Gundy quite a bit. He looked at Li Wan and couldn't help reminding him, "Li, your main task is to score... You haven't forgotten, have you?"

In fact, the whole style of "white chocolate" has become very down-to-earth since his career with the Heat.

But the impression of this thing is really difficult to eliminate!

Van Gundy will never forget the basketball that suddenly flew towards him in the game against the Kings n years ago...

That feeling was not much better than when his brother hugged Mo Ning's thigh.

With the improvement of Li Wan's dribbling skills, Stan Van Gundy also set the Magic's starting list for the new season:

Number 1: Li Wan;

Second position: Raja Bell;

Position 3: Turkoglu;

Position 4: Lewis;

Position 5: Howard;

Then there is the bench. Li Wan's first substitute is Jason Williams, and the second is Arroyo; Laga Bell's substitutes are Michael Pietrus and Bogans; Turkoglu's The substitute is also Pietrus; the substitute for Lewis is Antonio McDyess; the bench at No. 5 is naturally Kwame Brown who came for Li Wan.

Next to the water dispenser sat Gortat, Brian Cook, Adonal Foyer;

At the beginning of October, Otis signed Tyronn Lue with a basic salary.

This is the last spot on the Magic's 15-man roster.

The Orlando media were quite satisfied with Otis' actions in the summer and gave a rating.

If Oran Multimedia is its own, then espn's score for Otis should be fair, and it also has an A- score.

Above Otis, there is only Griffin, the general manager of the Cavaliers!

His operation reached a+!

But it's normal. No matter how strong the Magic team is, it will be strengthened on the bench, but the entire starting lineup of the Cavaliers is almost strengthened again.

Is this comparable?

It is also for this reason that the Cavaliers ranked second in the prediction lists of the major media for the new season finals, only behind the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers.

Even the Celtics were squeezed behind them.

It's just that on October 5th, the official release of the schedule of each team in the new season, Li Wan has reason to suspect that this is to build momentum for LeBron and Kobe.

Two of the strongest "single weapons" in the current alliance.

LeBron James, who won the "scoring champion" last season, "has done a great job" and will have a strong impact on Kobe, who will sit on the throne this summer!

The slogan "23vs24" was shouted again.

Coupled with the predictions of the major media in the previous two days, the Lakers and Cavaliers are the two strongest teams in the new season.

For a while, the new season has not yet played, and the names of the two teams in the finals have been written:

Cleveland Cavaliers vs Los Angeles Lakers!

And this year's "Christmas War"...

It's the pre-heating for the finals!

Yes, on December 25, the "Christmas dinner" arranged by the league is the challenge for the Lakers to meet the Cavaliers at home.

As for the Magic that some media speculated earlier...

They do have a "Christmas fight," but it's not the Lakers, but the Celtics who eliminated them in the playoffs last season.

Obviously, in the league's view, the Magic's goal in the new season should be to continue to challenge the seat of the East's talker. The first thing to do is, of course, revenge, and the Celtics who defeated them in the Eastern Conference Finals...

And then on to the other...

Of course, if we are talking about the favorites to win the championship, then these four teams are all included.

There is a chance of winning.

The Spurs, the Rockets...

This season has not yet started, but it has already filled the fans with anticipation. When the 8 experts of espn talked about who the final championship of the 2008-09 season will be at the "round table", there are 6 different answers in rare!

Just like after Michael Jordan retired, NBA guards blossomed, and under the "four shooting guards", there are also Arenas, Michael Reed

, Dwyane Wade, Ray Allen and a group of excellent second positions...

"Ok" disintegrated, "Stone Buddha" is getting old, Kobe Bryant, who just won the first finals MVP of his career, is not stable, and the current league has officially entered the "big championship era"!

Who will be the next Michael Jordan or Shaq O'Neal, for the time being, I really can't give an accurate answer.

Some people are thinking about the championship, while others are staring at the schedule in a daze.

Like Kevin Durant's shoes.

He hasn't taken his eyes off the schedule for 15 minutes, and he's watching...

The Oklahoma City Thunder's first game of the new season...

no one else...

It is the Orlando Magic with Li Wan!

What is "the old enemy's road is narrow", this is "the old enemy's road is narrow"!

However, just...

Then Kevin - Durant's mind.

He hopes to meet Li Wan as soon as possible in the new season.

He wants everyone to know that although Li Wan is invincible enough in the Olympics, Kevin Durant is still above him!

"Best Rookie" not to me, is wrong!

Kevin Durant is thinking about Li Wan, and Li Wan is...

Researching preseason opponents.

This year's Magic team has no new players, and there is no need to examine any player, so Stan Van Gundy has already said that the preseason will also be rotated as a regular season, and this is also to make the team's chemistry as soon as possible.

Although the starting lineup was changed by one person.

But this "one-star, four-star" style of play was summed up by Stan Van Gundy at the end of the regular season last year and in the playoffs. It's like saying that the entire team's system has changed.

This adjustment period will naturally be longer.

Of course, Li Wan also believes that even if they play in the regular season, it is impossible for their main force to play for so long in the preseason, and the season has not started. them.

Especially "Coach Anxi" he is very experienced...

The main Magic also included two domestic games in the preseason.

The Rockets, Nets, and Magic are all in this NBA trip to China. Of course, returning to China is a good thing, but if the schedule is too tight, it will be torture.

No less than playing "back to back"...

"Hey Li, did you see it when you came?"

Kwame Brown entered the room at this time and asked Li Wan excitedly.

Li Wan knew what he was talking about and nodded: "I see."

The makeup photos for the new season were taken a few days ago. As the absolute core of the team, he and Howard took a core photo, which was then made into a big poster and posted on the advertising wall of the Amway Arena.

Oran Multimedia also called out the new "Hardaway and Shaq O'Neal" very cooperatively!

Don't ask why it doesn't say the Orlando version of the "ok" combo.

The question is that we in Orlando also had a combination of inside and outside lines, and the results were also very good. We made it to the finals all the way, but in the end we lost to the Rockets who were at the peak of the "big dream".

They believe that Li Wan and Howard can definitely restore the glory of Orlando.

Do not!

Is to achieve greater glory!

It's just that Howard was somewhat unhappy when he saw this report. Who is Hardaway and who is O'Neal?

He always felt that these media lads were implying something there!

Turkoglu also entered the locker room at this time, and when he saw Li Wan, he patted his shoulder kindly and said, "Morning!"

He also saw the poster, but he was not angry.

With Li Wan's performance in the playoffs and his performance in shooting down Hao Mengba in the Olympics, it would be a fool for the Magic to not take him as the absolute core of the team.

Is the Magic's front office stupid?

Silly!

But when there is no problem with the contract and the team's salary space, it is not so stupid...

For Turkoglu, who is in the contract year, the decline of the team's status would have been a cause for concern.

However, for such a long time in the training camp, Li Wan still gave him the organization power and did not occupy the ball, which is a good thing for him.

As long as he has the ball, the stats are definitely not to worry about.

The data is good and the team's performance is good, so does he still need to worry about his next contract?

So he doesn't care about the status of the team.

At the same time, I am more and more grateful to Li Wan.

From Turkoglu's point of view, Li Wan can completely occupy the ball, organize and attack individual attacks.

If there are still physical concerns in the rookie season, then according to his observations this month, Li Wan's physical fitness may be much better than before.

There is absolutely no situation where the attack is organized with one hand and the physical fitness is not enough.

That might not be enough unless it's on the defensive side at the same time...

But with the configuration of the 2nd and 3rd positions and a bunch of defensive "tools", Li Wan doesn't need to consume much physical energy on the defensive end.

There is no reason to affect Li Wanba's possession of the ball, but he just didn't occupy it...

between!

Introduce teammates!

Is there a better teammate than Jie?

there is none left!

absolutely no more...

Turkoglu has often dreamed that when Li Wan first entered the team, he didn't like him. He felt that his situation at that time was really small!

In the future, I will have to study with Wan Geduo.

Li Wan also did not know his careful thoughts.

otherwise…

Li Wan will not tell Turkoglu, what if he occupies the ball and causes the original championship-level lineup to be ineffective?

Anyway, from his point of view, the organization right of the Magic is given to Turkoglu~www.novelbuddy.com~ that is a "quasi-championship" level team, plus he...

That's a team at the finals level!

Hope to win!

In the case of not worrying about the right to shoot, he actually doesn't care so much about the right to the ball...

As long as he is not in such a "sharp row" position, then no matter how much he doesn't want to cause trouble, Turkoglu will definitely grab the ball.

Jesus couldn't keep it.

Now this way, the physical energy he saves on the organizational side can be used on the defensive side.

He, plus Lagabel, Michael Pietrus, and Howard, the defensive intensity that he has now developed, he believes, will definitely make the entire league look at him.

just wait!

This time the Magic team is not just "one star" so simple.
