The reason why Wang Yi and others did not see traitor slogans on the streets of Los Angeles this time was actually because Wang Yi acted too violently during the fifth battle of Tianwang Mountain.
After that game, James believed that Wang Yi was stimulated by the audience shouting traitors.
So he sent a signal to the Los Angeles fans: stop calling Wang Yi a traitor.
So as not to irritate him.
This is actually a good thing for the Kings.
The hotel the Kings stayed at today was the Los Angeles Center Hotel.
This hotel is not very high-end.
Hotels in the United States are not classified by star rating.
However, on the American Automobile Association website, various service industries are classified into grades.
According to their classification, hotels are ranked from low to high, from one diamond to five diamonds.
This Los Angeles central hotel is a mid- to low-end hotel, with a rating of only two diamonds on the website.
In the past, the Kings stayed at Four Diamond hotels when playing away games.
But today, the four-diamond hotel they were working with was under temporary renovation, so they had to find other hotels to book rooms.
But the tiebreaker was about to begin, and many fans poured into Los Angeles.
So much so that they had no hotel to book.
Fortunately, thanks to the relationship between the owner, Rana Devito, we found the owner of the Los Angeles Center Hotel, who is also an Indian, and asked him to find a way to free up ten rooms.
The environment of this hotel is much worse than the environment of the hotel they stayed in before. Not to mention other things, in terms of infrastructure, it is much worse than the four-diamond hotel they are used to.
The carpet in the hotel corridor exuded a smell that made Wang Yi extremely uncomfortable.
Other teammates who were traveling with me didn’t notice any smell, they just felt that the infrastructure here was too poor.
Maybe it's because Wang Yi is Asian and can't get used to that smell.
When Nicole called Wang Yi, she knew that the environment here was not good and originally said that other accommodation had been arranged for him.
But Wang Yi feels that as the team leader, he must share weal and woe with his brothers.
Can't be special.
So I declined Nicole's kindness.
Although the environment of this hotel is not very good, it has a good location and is surrounded by many scenic spots within three kilometers.
Disney Concert Hall, Little Tokyo, City Hall, Staples Center, University of Southern California, Nokia Theater, museums, Notre Dame Cathedral, Grammy Museum.
And it's only a little over one kilometer away from Staples Center.
So despite the bad environment of this hotel, the business is very booming.
After arriving at the hotel room, the coach did not arrange training.
But Wang Yi still has a training task that he has not completed today.
So he had already contacted a training gym.
When he packed his things and was about to go out for training, head coach Walton said: "Wang, we have no training tasks scheduled today."
Wang Yi nodded: "I know."
"You have played 48 minutes in four consecutive games. Your body is already very tired. You should pay attention to rest more."
Wharton reminded.
Wang Yi nodded with deep understanding: "Coach, I can do it."
Then he carried his backpack and walked out the door.
Wharton shook his head speechlessly.
Is this what you call "you will"?
Because he was not at ease with Wang Yi, he still found an assistant to accompany Wang Yi.
The role of this assistant coach is to prevent Wang Yi from conducting too high-intensity training.
Wang Yi is good at everything, his only shortcoming is that he trains too hard.
Although you should train harder, you must also rest when you need to. You cannot train day and night.
Are there not many cases in the NBA where training is too intense and ultimately leads to serious injuries?
Didn't Brandon Roy, the former All-Star player of the Trail Blazers, lose himself because he practiced too hard?
Of course, it could also have been cured by pioneer veterinarians.
Wang Yi and his assistant coach came to the training hall, and his personal trainer James Wells had been waiting at the training hall for a long time.
James Wells not only has a complete training system in dribbling, shooting, strength training, endurance training, etc., but he is also able to adjust and restructure various aspects according to the athlete's physical condition, game status, etc.
Develop a new training plan.
The most important thing is that he also has a wide network of contacts and can quickly contact suitable training centers no matter which city he goes to.
This is what Wang Yi values ​​​​about him.
Wang Yi offered him an annual salary of US$700,000 - slightly less than the US$1 million that James' trainer earns.
Someone once offered James Wells an annual salary of 800,000 or even 900,000 US dollars, but he never left Wang Yi.
Because Wang Yi's attitude towards training was something he had never seen before.
As long as it is a training plan he has formulated, Wang Yi has always completed it actively and conscientiously, never being lazy.
Coupled with Wang Yi's talent, he is very optimistic about Wang Yi.
So he decided to take $100,000 less per year to stay with Wang Yi.
It seems like $100,000 less, but for a personal trainer, it's still quite high.
Of course, such a high annual salary also means great responsibility.
He is not only responsible for formulating Wang Yi's training plan, being on call 24 hours a day as a sparring partner, analyzing and adjusting Wang Yi's physical condition, but also managing Wang Yi's diet with a personal nutritionist, and is responsible for Wang Yi's sleep and post-game recovery, etc.
Waiting for work content.
It can be said that his work and rest time are completely synchronized with Wang Yi's.
Wang Yi trains 6 days a week, and he also has to be on call 6 days a week.
Wang Yi has previously informed him of today’s training content.
When he and his assistant coach arrived at the training hall, they saw James Wells still frowning and shaking his head slightly.
"King, I told you that such training is not necessary."
Wang Yi chuckled lightly: "Yes, of course it is necessary. Just be responsible for feeding me the ball."
James Wells spread his hands: "Okay, I'm only responsible for making suggestions. As for how to do it, the final decision is still yours."
Wang Yi threw a basketball to James Wells: "Brother, you have done a great job. Today's training is my own decision. If it has any negative impact on me, I will never trouble you."
"
James Wells replied half-jokingly: "As long as you say this, let's get started."
The assistant coach looked at Wang Yi and then at James Wells.
I thought to myself: What exactly is training?
Even Wang Yi’s personal trainer disagrees.
But he didn't ask much, since he would see it soon.
At this time Wang Yi came to the court, outside the three-point line.
His personal trainer Wells passed the ball to Wang Yi on the sidelines.
The assistant coach looked at the two men's postures, as if they were going to practice shooting.
Three-point shooting drills?
By the way, does Wang Yi’s three-point shooting still need training?
Just when he was wondering, he saw Wang Yi turn around and face the basket in the other half.
His hands shot out from his chest.
The basketball made a very high arc and hit the opposite backboard.
Bang——
A loud bang echoed in the empty training hall.
Then there was the sound of a basketball bouncing on the ground.
Chapter completed!
