   Chapter 50 50. Just give a suggestion (5500 words for a ticket)

  On October 13th, the Blazers had a game today, but at 8:00 in the morning, Liu Xiu was still learning basic skills with Derek Anderson.

  Derrick Anderson's comprehensive basic skills and comprehensive basic skills, and they only reach a good and extreme level of basic skills and basic skills. Liu Xiu estimates that in his rookie season, it will bring him a lot of help.

  Derrick Anderson has a subtle feeling today, he doesn't know if it's an illusion - this rookie's spirit is a little different!

   is still mainly sloppy, but there seems to be a hint of urgency in his eyes, a hint of sharpness.

  Derrick Anderson doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, this is what a rookie should be like.

  These urgency and vigor are too little in Derek Anderson's view.

  …

   Liu Xiu and Randolph felt out of place with the surrounding roll kings...

   "Jess, thank you for coming to our team, otherwise I'd be a dinosaur."

   "Dinosaurs? You're not ugly."

   "The photo of me standing with you. My mom said I'm ugly so don't stand next to you... Who told you about my looks!?"

  Randolph jumped up in anger.

  Randolph took a deep breath, hinted that he was not angry, and after soothing his wounded heart, he said, "If I don't have you, I'll be the only one who doesn't train. I'm sorry."

  Liu Xiu tilted her neck and looked up at Randolph, and said, "Will you train well before I come?"

   "Of course not possible..."

   After complaining for a while, Randolph decisively changed the subject and asked, "Are you going to have lunch with that center in your country later?"

   "Yes, he is a big star in our country. I used to like watching his games." Liu Xiu said that before, he was a junior high school student in his previous life watching the national team's games.

  Randolph nodded, not feeling anything wrong.

  There are more and more international players in the NBA. Randolph knows that many players who did not do well in the NBA may be a big player in the international arena and a top star in their own country.

   Last summer's Indianapolis Basketball World Championships, the world's major basketball powerhouses, surprised American basketball stars for a while.

  At 10:15 in the morning, the Blazers started a tactical training session and ended at 11:10. Most of the players stayed for extra training, but Liu Xiu and Randolph ran away.

  The Blazers are an amazing team. Except for a very few people, most of them work very hard.

   "Didn't the Clippers come yesterday? Why didn't you make an appointment last night?"

   "I was learning defense with Dyer last night, and I didn't have time."

  Randolph understands - Liu Xiu is not familiar with the Chinese player of the Clippers. Although he likes it, he is not a loyal fan.

   If it is such a relationship, based on Randolph's understanding of Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu will definitely give priority to his affairs in arranging the time.

  …

   Liu Xiu and Randolph chatted for a while, then drove to the restaurant they had made an appointment with, and made a reservation in the morning.

  Liu Xiu arrived at 11:55. As he expected, Wang Zhizhi didn't arrive until after ten minutes...because his appointment was at 12:15.

  When Wang Zhizhi came, he happened to see a group of waitresses lining up to take a photo with Liu Xiu....

  The group photo doesn’t matter, Wang Zhizhi saw that a waitress took a photo and went to line up again…

   Looking at Liu Xiu's face, Wang Zhizhi felt that being handsome means he can do whatever he wants.

   "Brother Wang, you are here, come here..."

   Liu Xiu finally found the savior. After shouting in Mandarin, he said to the waiters, "My friend is here. Can I take a photo with you next time when I have a chance?"

  Liu Xiu was very polite, and the manager of their restaurant brought Liu Xiu's guests, and the waiters could only spread out.

   After sitting down, Liu Xiu took the initiative to say, "Hello, Brother Wang, my name is Liu Xiu."

  Wang Zhizhi hurriedly replied, "Just call me roughly..."

   said, Wang Zhizhi got stuck.

   Call the other party Liu Xiu, it's too raw.

  If it's called Xiaoxiu...Here in the United States, Wang Zhizhi has no status in the arena. I heard that Liu Xiu has no domestic basketball experience, so he started playing basketball in college.

   That is called a big-show?

  This title Wang Zhizhi felt a little rude when he thought about it.

Liu Xiu immediately saw Wang Zhizhi's entanglement, and smiled: "Then I'll call you roughly brother! You can call me by my English name. My English name is Jess, and my parents call me Xiu'er. The next time I heard Xiu Er, I was very disappointed."

   "Oh...Okay." As a social fear, Wang Zhizhi is not a high social fear, but when he encounters a person like Liu Xiu, it is really difficult to communicate with...

   He really didn't expect to call Liu Xiu 'Xiu'er.

  After ordering, Liu Xiu looked at Wang Zhizhi, and he began to look at Wang Zhizhi when he came in.

   The height and wingspan are quite good, and the skeleton is good, but this body is a bit... a waste of talent!

   This body type is more rounded than many meat shield centers... But Liu Xiuming clearly remembers that Wang Zhizhi should be a technical flow with excellent mobility and a space-type insider.

  Wang Zhizhi was stunned by Liu Xiu's scrutiny. He wanted to find a topic, but he really choked him: "Jess, you are such a good person, and promised to take a photo with those waiters."

  Liu Xiu realized that her eyes were not polite, she withdrew her scrutiny eyes, and replied, "My tutor made me not be rude to ladies. They politely asked for a photo. I just had the time, so I didn't refuse."

  “…”

  Wang Zhizhi is so desperate, this... I really can't catch up!

   Fortunately, this is the time to start serving appetizers and salads, so I don’t need to talk for the time being.

  There is one thing about Western food that is very good. There are only a few things that can be eaten for dinner, and there are not too many to choose from. It is quite friendly to those who have difficulty in choosing.

  As the dishes start to be served, you can talk about some topics about the dishes. Before Liu Xiu, he looked at Wang Zhizhi and thought about problems. Now that he reacted, he took the initiative to find easy topics to talk about in these areas.

  I just had lunch, I just wanted to get acquainted.

And if he can enter the national team in the future, Wang Zhizhi will definitely be one of the best players in the national team. Not to mention he wants to become a close friend, it is always right to have a good relationship... Now Wang Zhizhi is down and out, and many domestic players avoid him and follow the **** of avoidance. In the same way, Liu Xiu knew that Wang Zhizhi would definitely stand up again in Chinese basketball.

   After a while, the two of them had almost eaten, and they could be considered full of soup and food. There was a game tonight, and both of them only drank a third of a glass of table wine.

   Seeing that the meal appointment time was coming to an end, Liu Xiu thought for a while and felt that she should say something: "Roughly brother, I have a question."

"what is the problem?"

  After eating a meal, Wang Zhizhi finally felt a lot more relaxed. As a social fear, after a meal, the meal appointment was almost over, and Wang Zhizhi entered the feeling of chatting.

   "As far as I remember your style of play in the Bayi team, it doesn't seem to match your current size."

Hearing this, Wang Zhizhi thought for a moment and replied: "Because my height and wingspan are excellent, and my skeleton is also suitable for hanging meat, after I came to the United States two years ago, the trainer and agent suggested that I increase the weight to go to the center. Competing for minutes, Nowitzki was an All-Star when I entered the NBA, playing close to 40 minutes per game..."

   Having said this, Wang Zhizhi fell silent.

   In 1995, he was called the 'best center' at the World Youth Championship.

In April 1996, he excelled at the Nike Spike game co-hosted by the University of North Carolina, when six NCAA Division I basketball teams wanted to invite him to play in the United States, but he already had a season of Division A. The experience of the league, even if he played the youth team game, is not a big problem, but the official professional league is not enough.

   In August 1996, he gave David Robinson a big hat at the Atlanta Olympics. Georgia Institute of Technology tried to negotiate with the NCAA to recruit Wang Zhizhi to join, but the NCAA did not refuse, and the Chinese Blue Association refused.

   In 1999, he participated in the draft and was selected, but still could not go to the NBA.

   Until 2001, Wang Zhizhi was 24 years old, and the best growth period had been wasted before he came to the NBA...

   After being silent for a while, Wang Zhizhi smiled bitterly: "The increase in weight did not improve my performance in the NBA as much as I and the trainer expected, but it also affected my technical performance."

"then you…"

   Liu Xiuzheng wanted to ask another question, but stopped just after saying two words.

Wang Zhizhi's chatterbox has been fully opened, and seeing Liu Xiu's reaction, he said: "When I first arrived in the United States, I actually only weighed 114 kilograms. After half a year, it rose to 124 kilograms, and now it is 126 kilograms, which not only affects the performance of my skills, but also affects my performance. Mobility has a big impact.

  I haven't lost any weight yet. You should have guessed the reason. Now the NBA still wants me, and it is because I am 214 cm tall and 126 kg in weight. "

  Liu Xiu nodded: "Generally, the reason why you don't lose weight is because you are worried about losing your chance to play in the NBA after losing weight?"

  Wang Zhizhi nodded.

  Although he is more than three years older than Liu Xiu, Wang Zhizhi has said everything in front of Liu Xiu now.

   Wang Zhizhi's change in speech and the progression of his emotions, Liu Xiu, who noticed these, dared to say:

"In the past, you had concerns, but now you don't have to worry so much. As far as I know, the Clippers should choose to buy out your contract. They gave up on Olowokandi for Kaman. Jo, and Eli, a good backup center, Polinis can also play a role in some games.

   Even if the Clippers keep you, your chances won't be better than last season..."

   Speaking of this, Liu Xiu felt that Wang Zhizhi's agent, Jeff Schwartz, couldn't be any better.

In the 01-02 season, Wang Zhizhi averaged 5.6 points and 2 rebounds per game. Jeff Schwartz helped him get a three-year, $6.2 million contract with the Clippers, although the third year was a team option, which is Not guaranteed, but the $3.99 million in the first two years is also higher than the salary of many first-round picks in the second and third grades!

   Liu Xiu's analysis is the same as what Wang Zhizhi heard from his agent!

  Wang Zhizhi's heart was so cold.

Seeing this, Liu Xiu quickly said: "Roughly brother, I just have an idea. The ancients once said that if you don't break it, you won't stand. The market demand for a meat shield center is getting smaller and smaller. Now you are only 26 years old. If the Clippers want to buy you out contract, I think, you can completely lose weight, reduce to a weight that is more suitable for you to exert your strengths, and maybe regain your footing in the NBA.

   Even if you leave the NBA, if you return to a weight that can better play your strengths, there will be a better market to play in Europe and back home... Only the NBA will have a natural need for a meat shield center because of O'Neal. "

  …

   The meal with Wang Zhizhi was not a complete pleasure for the host and guests. When Wang Zhizhi left, he was still in a heavy mood.

   Liu Xiu returned to the Rose Garden Arena after lunch. There was a game in the evening, but Liu Xiu still chose to train in the afternoon and learned the training method of assisting defense and defense from Dale Davis.

  Defense is to be in the right position at the right time to make the right action.

   Blocking and stealing are not necessary for defense, and moving in place is more important.

   An hour and a half later, Liu Xiu krypton earned 1000 healing points, and learned the training method of Dale Davis, an All-Star defense boss in his prime.

   Dale Davis asked: "Jess, you still train like this when there is a game at night, don't you worry about lack of physical strength? You've been training, I'm just pointing you."

  Liu Xiu replied with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I don't think I will play a lot tonight. Playing against the Lakers is an accident. It will be difficult for me to get 20+5+5."

   Dale Davis hesitated after hearing the words, and then asked, "Jess, what happened? You seem to have something on your mind today."

   "Uh... The thug Davis is now a confidant brother?"

   "If it weren't for you, I would beat you to death!"

   "Okay, okay, you're amazing, it's nothing, it's just... so, so, and so..."

Liu Xiu didn't say his name, so he repeated the content of the communication with Wang Zhizhi in the afternoon. Of course, he was not asking whether Dale Davis thought of a way for Wang Zhizhi, but asking him as a junior, as a rookie. , should I give such advice.

   Dale Davis thought for a while and asked, "Jess, do you want to be good friends with him?"

  Liu Xiu thought about Wang Zhizhi's character, and the communication process of the first meeting... Shaking his head: "If you can, it's not bad to be a good friend. If you can't, it's okay, but the relationship can't be too bad."

   "But you want to help him?"

"right."

   "Then you don't have to worry. Even if he is unhappy because of what you said, if the advice you gave is really good and useful, then it is definitely better to say it than to hold it back."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu reorganized his thoughts and suddenly became enlightened - he just wanted to give Wang Zhizhi some advice, and he didn't know if it would really be useful, but he knew that if Wang Zhizhi didn't change, his NBA career would end soon, and the direction of change was not wrong direction...

   It's okay to really offend him. He didn't think about getting anything in return or how good friends he wanted to become with the other party. He just met, had a meal, gave advice, and completed his thoughts.

  …

  …

   Don't care about the game at night?

   Of course not. At 4:30 p.m., before warming up, Liu Xiu took out a lunch box and ate it decisively...

"The host eats the almighty nutrition lunch, and the physical strength recovers to the best state. (Note, regarding the physical strength calculation of the simulation training, the physical strength recovered by the omnipotent nutrition lunch box is not included, and the physical strength consumed by the host will be preferentially included in the physical strength calculation of the simulation training. middle.

   On the match day, pre-match training, competition, etc. will basically consume stamina, so Liu Xiu chose to still learn from Derek Anderson and Dale Davis on the match day.

   First learn all of the two, and then consider learning from other teammates.

  Some have to learn quickly. For example, Tianzun will take the initiative to show a devilish smile to Liu Xiu when no one is there...I don't know when Tianzun will be traded away.

   I couldn't think of how to get along with Rasheed Wallace before, but now, the way has been opened, isn't it.

  …

"Yaliqi, ability rating 75...big Q, ability rating 80...Magette, ability rating 88...Brand, ability rating 91...Kaman, ability rating 76...wow, this starting single is not inferior to us in terms of individual ability. what…"

   At 6:40 in the evening, at the Rose Garden Arena, the preseason game between the Trail Blazers and the Clippers is about to start.

   Of course, the playing time will not be stable, and the teammates will have a stronger sense of competition, but Liu Xiu is still fully prepared.

   After entering the court, Liu Xiu can check the Clippers player detection report.

   The opponent's starting lineup is very strong, and the bench lineup is also very good. There are many players with good strength, and most of them are high-ranked players in recent years.

   But Liu Xiu didn't think the opponent was strong at all... On the 10th, a lineup like the Clippers was slaughtered by the Nuggets by 35 points in Denver, and they lost 75 to 110.

   This game is also an absolute unpopular game. The same team in Los Angeles is completely different. The Clippers' presence is not as strong as the infamous Trail Blazers.

Even in China, the popularity of this game is not high, just like last season Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi were not very popular... If two Chinese players meet in the NBA a few years later, the attention will definitely explode. But at this time, there is no such thing as a 'China Derby' in the domestic NBA. Wang Zhizhi's non-return incident is in a state of being blocked in China, and there is some attention, but it is not that high.

   This made Liu Xiu heave a sigh of relief. Now, if he had to fry the 'China Derby' embarrassingly, he could pull out a complex villa with his toes.

   At 7 p.m., the game started.

The starting lineup sent by the Blazers is still Damon Stoudemire, Ruben Patterson, Travis Outlaw, Randolph, and Rasheed Wallace.

   Momonga played harder tonight, but Maurice Cheeks became more and more dissatisfied.

Momonga is playing hard, and he still regards himself as the absolute core of his style of play. Before he got into drugs and alcohol, this was no problem, but now that his body has been depleted, he still plays with the absolute core of his style... The first section of Momonga's play After more than 7 minutes, he was replaced by Jeff McGinnis.

   Momo's points and assists look pretty good, but this is only a preseason game, and the opponent is the Clippers. If it really plays against a playoff-level team...that's really bad.

   In the second quarter, Liu Xiu made his debut... he appeared earlier than the previous one!

   As soon as he played, Liu Xiu received healing points from Momomoko and Jeff McGinnis.

   Liu Xiu was very satisfied, and then continued to do what he could do on the court.

   Playing with Liu Xiu is Derek Anderson, who is extremely versatile, Travis Outlaw and Randolph, who have a high tacit understanding with Liu Xiu, and Rasheed Wallace at the center.

   Liu Xiu's presence on the court is far less than the last game against the Lakers. It's not that the Clippers are better than the Lakers, but it is a matter of height.

The Clippers used Marko Yalic, who mainly plays the shooting guard, as the point guard. With a height of 201 cm, Liu Xiu ran to sit and play... There was a lot of pressure. Although Randolph was also short in the same position, he could not deal with it. The opponents are usually five or six centimeters in height, and Liu Xiu is more than ten centimeters here.

   Therefore, Liu Xiu will deliver the ball, appear in a suitable receiving position, grab the rebound when there is a chance, and when his teammates can't open it, he should chisel with his body, and do not do extra things.

   Seeing that Liu Xiu played only 2 points and 1 assist in half a quarter, Damon Stoudemire was very happy when he was replaced, and felt that he had won the competition!

   But in the second half, Liu Xiu started again...

   During the halftime break, Maurice Cheeks' coaching staff made an evaluation of the players who played in various positions in the first half, and made an all-round and detailed evaluation.

  The position of point guard, the evaluation of Derek Anderson and Jeff McGinnis, are mostly ordinary.

   Damon Stoudemire, who played 13 minutes at halftime and scored 11 points and 5 assists, was mostly rated D or even F!

   It's not that his strength is not as good as Derrick Anderson and Jeff McGinnis, in terms of how to score, how to pass opponents, how to pass the ball... The two of them definitely can't keep up with Momo.

but! With the current strength of Momonga, building a team around it would be really miserable.

   On the contrary, Liu Xiu, who played 6 minutes in the half and scored 2 points and 1 assist, got a B or even A rating in several aspects!

   There is Randolph and Rasheed Wallace, and we must play around these two. The coaching staff clearly sees that Liu Xiu's on-court actions are doing just that!

  …
