The Kings flew to the Denver plateau and began their secret training.
At first, the players had doubts about the strength of this Kings team.
However, with the deepening of training and seeing Wang Yi's super ability, each of the players gained some confidence in the future of this Kings team.
But Wang Yi knows that real confidence comes from playing games.
So if we really want these guys to unite as one, they have to win in the new season!
While they were training, Nicole would occasionally come over to see Wang Yi.
This makes the players on the team envious, especially the young players.
There was even a substitute player named Mitchell who had a crush on Nicole - of course, this Mitchell was not the star of the Jazz, but just an important substitute player for the Kings.
However, his little idea was quickly discovered by the boss on the sidelines.
After avoiding everyone, the boss called Mitchell to his room.
"Boy, Nicole is not an ordinary person. Her background makes even me jealous, so you'd better stay calm. Otherwise, I will make you lose your job tomorrow."
This frightened Mitchell, who had just played two seasons in the league.
Barnes once told him that you can be afraid of no one in the league, but you can't be afraid of the boss.
Every boss in the league is an elite from all walks of life.
The breadth of their contacts and the scale of their relationship network are beyond your imagination.
Can your boss lose your job with just one sentence?
You are still too young.
As long as you are not a well-known player and offend your boss, you may disappear from this world without anyone noticing one day.
But now Nicole's background makes even IT tycoon Dr. Rana fear three points.
What kind of power should that be?
So he put away his crooked thoughts and started practicing football with all his heart.
At the same time, Julie Hope called Wang Yi twice more.
She is waiting for Wang Yi to contact him.
However, Wang Yi never contacted her again, which made her quite annoyed.
I even had doubts about my own charm for a while.
When she reported the matter to her supervisor, her supervisor changed his previous attitude.
"You don't have to go anymore, come back."
This surprised Julie Hope: "Why? I have paid so much for this thing, why should I give up suddenly?"
The supervisor said: "Did you see the woman next to him?"
Julie Hope smiled disdainfully: "Do you think that woman's charm can compare with mine?"
The supervisor said: "Don't mess with that woman, we can't afford it."
Although Julie Hope has big breasts, she also has brains.
With just these words from her supervisor, she realized that things were not simple.
"Director, who is she?"
The supervisor shook his head: "I don't know exactly. It's just that we were ordered not to mess with her."
…
The Kings have been training at Denver Heights for nearly three months.
During this period, the overall strength of the Kings has been significantly improved.
As for Wang Yi himself, through daily training, his speed has been increased to the extreme.
In today's league, no one can beat him in terms of speed.
At the same time, he gained weight with the help of a personal trainer and nutritionist.
His weight increased from less than 80 kilograms to 95 kilograms.
He looked a little thin before, and seemed to be a little thinner than Curry.
And now he looks very strong.
Just like Deron Williams who ate, slept and beat Paul during his peak period.
This kind of weight allows him to stand up to those shooting guards.
At the same time, the stability of layups after confrontation will be greatly increased.
…
On October 5th, the preseason starts.
NBA preseason games can only be regarded as warm-up games before the start of the regular season.
Firstly, it’s to harmonize the lineup;
Secondly, it is to give those substitutes who did not perform much in the regular season a chance to show off.
The third step is to warm up the regular season.
In the past, two NBA preseason games would be held in China.
But since the Mo Gou incident, the relationship between the NBA and China has dropped to a freezing point.
Preseason games have never been held in China again.
In this year's preseason, the Kings played 8 games.
In these 8 games, the main players played less than 25 minutes.
Mainly to give the substitutes a chance to show off.
The Kings' benches are quite impressive.
Finally achieved a record of 6 wins and 2 losses.
This made everyone in the team happy.
The wind direction outside has also changed slightly.
Some media predict that with the addition of Wang Yi this year, the Kings are likely to reach the playoffs.
However, nothing is always smooth sailing.
When the season started, reality gave everyone in the Kings a hard blow.
The Kings started these five games and actually lost five games in a row.
Although the team has 7 players averaging double figures per game, it seems to be a very good statistic.
But the record is here.
If you can't win, what's the use of your team's personal data, no matter how good it is?
Moreover, Wang Yi's data in these 5 games was not very good.
He averaged only 20.7 points, 8.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game.
If this were applied to other players, it would be quite good.
But in view of Wang Yi's performance last season, such data obviously cannot satisfy fans and media.
This aroused unanimous ridicule from the media and fans.
Although the media is criticizing Wang Yi, they are still somewhat rational, but American fans are not so rational.
"The traitor must die!"
"Look at the Lakers' 4 wins and 1 loss, and then look at your Kings. Do you think your decision was too stupid?"
"Before, he was able to perform well under the protection of LeBron. He thought his wings were strong and he could fly. Now look, without LeBron, you are not even shit."
…
Just when the entire U.S. network was slandering Wang Yi, one person stood up and spoke out.
This person is none other than Shaquille O'Neal.
In the program "Open Court" he hosted, he objectively analyzed the Kings' current failure.
"The failure of the Kings is not Wang Yi, but the team's style of play. Luke Walton's coaching philosophy can be called egalitarianism. He needs the players to share the ball equally. Everyone's shots are equal.
Almost. We can look at Wang Yi's average number of shots per game with the Lakers, which is 14.7. In the few games after AD was reimbursed for the season, Wang Yi's number of shots skyrocketed to 18.8."
"Look at him now with the Kings, averaging only 10.3 shots per game, and 10 shots in exchange for 20 points. Do you still think his ability is poor? This efficiency is already quite high."
"Obviously, Luke Walton ignored an issue: players have great and small abilities. As a head coach, what you have to do is not to distribute the ball equally to each player, but to let the right players do the right things.
Things. If you are good at defense, focus on defense. If you are good at rebounding, go for rebounds. If you are good at offense, go for three-pointers. If Wang Yi is good at offense, you should give him more ball rights and let him attack.
.”
"Another point is their defense. The Kings' defense is still in disarray. Obviously, Luke Walton is not good at coaching the team's defense."
"So the blame falls on Luke Walton."
But fans are blind.
Under the general trend of the whole network criticizing Wang Yi, O'Neill's defense for Wang Yi seems more or less weak.
Until November 16, the Kings ushered in their sixth game.
Chapter completed!
