The NBA has clear regulations on the transfer time. Only after July 1 can each team sign free agents, which means that any free agent can sign with any team in July.

Unfortunately, it is now the shutdown.

Although the summer league is not banned, any basketball-related activities are prohibited, that is, it cannot be traded, let alone signing free agents. The most speechless thing is that players cannot train in the club.

NBA has always had two battlefields: one is the open battle between teams on the field, and the other is the secret battle between the players and the boss.

Whenever the labor-management agreement is to be renegotiated, the entire NBA feels like a storm is coming and wind is filling the building.

Due to commercial promotion, NBA players' salaries have risen rapidly, and there are even billion-dollar contracts of Juwan Howard, O'Neal and Garnett.

Especially last year, Michael Jordan and the Bulls signed the largest single-season contract in NBA history, with $33.14 million a year.

Although Jordan did not disappoint the Bulls and led the team to achieve its second three-game championship in 1998. However, the soaring "price" of the NBA still made many teams unable to bear it, and there was another problem.

That is, the NBA's salary cap can no longer keep up with the soaring price, just like your salary cannot keep up with the speed of price increase, which ultimately leads to labor-management negotiations.

In March 1998, the NBA and the industrial and industrial parties held new negotiations on the labor-cap agreement. The team owners hoped to adjust the league's salary cap system and the salary cap of players, requiring restrictions on the situation where big-name players' income is too high.

The players' union naturally strongly opposed their plans, hoping to increase the salary levels of basic-paying players.

Superstars represented by Jordan had great differences with the team bosses, which led to the final breakdown of negotiations between the two sides.

According to the current situation, the league's suspension has become a foregone conclusion. For a time, the NBA has been calling for cancellation of this season.

In this case, many role players are eager to go abroad to find a way out. They are not superstars and cannot make much money at all, and it is even more impossible to spend a season.

Not only making money, playing abroad can also maintain their form.

However, unlike them, as the rebirth, Jigami is very clear that this season has not been cancelled, but it has ended up being a shrinking season.

So, this also became his chance to get to power!

In order to maintain training and maintain its state, Chikami began to look for training places and finally made his mind to Lafrenz, who was in the same team.

They are both rookies, but Lafrenz is a Tanhua show, and his salary is three times that of the pool. He earned more than two million US dollars in the first year and even rented a luxury house near Pepsi Center.

In this mansion, there are standard indoor basketball courts and many professional equipment, which are enough to maintain training on the pool.

Lafrenz welcomed the purpose of the Chi Shang. In the summer league, although Lafrenz's data was not as good as that of Chi Shang, he still got the 2010 data under the "feeding cake" of Chi Shang.

Organizers like Chishang are definitely a hot commodity in the eyes of many players.

However, in front of the pool, Lafrenz was still full of worries about this shutdown.

"This suspension is getting more and more intense, and the games this season are likely to be cancelled. Is it really okay for us to train hard?"

"Lafrenz, I believe that the league cannot cancel this year's game. Neither the league, the team boss nor the players want such a thing to happen, otherwise the NBA's reputation will be ruined and no one can bear such consequences!"

Ikegami paused and continued: "In addition, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. Many players will probably slack off because of this, resulting in no competition. In addition, players who go abroad to play, the team may not even be able to get the roster. If the season continues, don't you think this is our opportunity!"

"Okay, you successfully convinced me that no matter whether there are any games this season or not, we cannot slack off because of this, train hard and seize this opportunity!"

Seeing Ikesaka's confident look, Lafrenz hesitated for a moment, his expression became a little more firm, and he began to train with Ikesaka.

Lafrenz had long experienced the amount of training on the pool and was full of admiration.

The key to everything is persistence. It may be fine in the short term, but few people can do it day after day training.

Even if I have been in the NBA for four years, it is definitely a rare existence.

After completing personal training, Chikaku began to conduct confrontation training with Lafrenz.

Bang bang~

Lafrenz held the ball with his back frame and exerted force. However, after trying twice, he did not let Chisaka take a step back.

Although Lafrenz is the center, it does not mean that he can suppress Chi Shang. His style of play is relatively soft, his strength is similar to Chi Shang, and he has no advantage in weight, so he cannot gain the upper hand at all.

Soon, Lafrenz changed his strategy and wanted to turn over and jump shot.

When Lafrenz took the jump shot, Chishang jumped up and straightened his arm hard.

In an instant, Ikesaka smiled. As his arms were stretched out, his middle finger hit the basketball, changing the trajectory of the basketball.

No surprise, this ball failed and was successfully defended by Chi Shang.

During the offense and defense transition, Chi Shang fell to the low post. Since becoming a small forward, he has started practicing his back-to-body skills to better utilize his strength advantages.

In the physical confrontation, Chi Shang did not have the advantage, but he did not barely turn over and jump shot. Instead, he used his sensitive steps to instantly change from back basket to face frame, easily breaking through Lafrenz, and finally ended with a layup.

Compared with Lafrenz, the speed and flexibility of the pool are obviously better, which is also the most common way to fight small and large.

"No more fights, your speed is too fast, I can't keep up at all!"

After several rounds, Lafrenz waved his hand, and in the one-on-one fight with Chi Shang, he was completely at a disadvantage.

He is not a masochist, so he naturally doesn't want to continue to fight.

"Then practice cooperation. When the new season starts, we can win better data through cooperation!"

"This one can be there!"

Lafrenz's eyes shining, and he had a deep understanding of the vision and passing ability on the pool.

Without the help of the pool, he would definitely not get the 2010 data in the summer league.

No one can ignore the importance of data. For many players, honor is important, but data is more important.

Without good data, even if you win the championship with the team, there is still no big contract.

If you have good data, even if you don’t have any honors, there are still teams who are willing to give you a big contract.

During the rest period, the two began to communicate and formulated an effective cooperation method based on their expertise and scoring areas.
