Chapter 15 Like

The old shark did not exert his strength yet. In the next round, he sat on Jordan and turned around and dunked.
"Did you see your uncle Shaq hitting your back? You're too far away, boy..."
The old shark learned from Mutombo and shook his fingers lamely.
Jordan was criticized and frowned, but Ewing, who was beside him, laughed: "What's the point of bullying a rookie? Why don't we practice?"
The old shark suddenly fell silent. After a moment, he replied casually: "Forget it, Patrick, I won't bully the old guy."
"Bullying the old guy? I don't think so. Why don't you practice, Shaq, I think you can't beat me now."
Ewing's words are really not exaggerating.
The old shark was wandering all summer and was in a bad state, so he bullied the inexperienced Jordan.
Although Ewing has been retired for six years, his condition has remained good after retirement.
He worked as an assistant coach at Magic in the summer. In the summer, he joined Coach K's coaching staff and maintained low-intensity training.
This really needs to be fought, Ewing has a chance.
Lao Sha still waved his hand, but he didn't want to die on the first day of training.
Looking at the old shark waving his hand, Ewing smiled, and then continued to direct Jordan and the old shark one-on-one.
Speaking of which, although he joined in the second round, Jordan was very well treated.
Lao Sha had long been the expected thing for training. Ewing's joining was Boss Qiao's efforts.
Although Jordan Jr. was in the second round, he entered the Green House before the draft.
Old Shark Gay Uwing, the Bobcats are now training Jordan as a lottery center.
His eyes returned to the other side, and Lao Ai had already had arguing with Tyron Lu.
Lao Ai is indeed not in good condition, but if he really wants to exhale his anger, Tyron Lu can't stop him with all his strength.
Li Ke stood on another court, shooting the basket alone, and began to work hard. Looking at the hottest look in the training hall, he still felt the enthusiasm of the new season.
...
Compared with last year, the core lineup of Bobcats has not changed much, so in terms of tactics, the Bobcats have not changed either.
It is just that the distribution of ball rights and the core of tactics may change.
Time has entered the second day of training. In addition to the physical training in the morning, a 5v5 confrontation training was added in the afternoon.
How the player's status, whether it is progress or regression, the changes that new players need to make after joining the team, etc., have been reflected and feedback in 5v5 training.
"Sheldon's back-playing has made great progress, and there are some threats to breakthroughs. We can give him some personal singles tactics."
"It just so happens that Allen is in a bad state, and he can give some of his ball rights to Sheldon."
It was almost the first day of the formal training camp that the coaching staff came to this conclusion.
In the next few days, the training camp continued to advance.
The old shark was in a very smooth state, with basically no twists and turns.
But there are also problems. The problem is that he always has some minor injuries that are not hindering the overall situation, such as ankle sprain, general soreness, headaches, etc.
There is no need to say more about absent from training. Sam Vincent has even foreseen that by the beginning of the season, the attendance rate of Old Shark will probably be much higher.
Compared to Lao Sha, Lao Ai has more problems.
With high-intensity training, Lao Ai's physical fitness recovered quickly.
But I don’t know if it’s because of the decline in physical skills or the injury. In short, Lao Ai’s breakthrough is no longer as sharp as the sharpness of the season, and his shooting is not as accurate as the season.
All the data during training have declined significantly.
Regarding this, the coaching staff discussion is:
"Give Allen more time. As for the lack of offensive firepower, I can only count on Sheldon."
Li Ke felt greater pressure, but he also knew that this season, he really needed to stand up and lead the team forward.
"Old Shark is almost in good condition, but you can't count on him, because he will definitely paddle. If Lao Ai plays in this state more reasonably, he will probably only contribute a level of firepower like Billups and Richard Hamilton. If he plays unreasonably... it will inevitably hurt the team."
"So, in the new season, only Gerald and I can really rely on are me."
It sounds ridiculous. When I go to Ji, Bobcat's quad core is considered pseudo-quad core, while Li Ke and Hua Lao Er are both considered pseudo-core.
After playing the playoffs, the Bobcats' quad core was considered to be the real quad core, and Li Ke and Hua's second son were finally recognized.
Before the start of the new season, the Bobcats topped the list of the new season's combat power forecasts by major media.
The basis is that as the defending champion, Bobcats, has a quad-core AWSL core, and is naturally the top star in the league.
But the problem is that the four cores of the Bobcat have made progress and are likely to not be able to fill the pit of regression.
"If KG does not follow the old path of history, the Celtics will be the real No.1 this season, followed by the Lakers. Even the Magic and Rockets this season will be better than us."
Compared with last season, the Celtics' strength has actually been weakened, mainly because they left a James Posey, whose originally problematic wing is now even weaker.
In addition, the head coach also changed from Rivers to Siberdu.
Yes, yes, Sibedu was directly on the way.
The Celtics' choices are relatively rational. They know very well that Siberdu's defensive system has a great bonus to the Celtics.
Rivers' problem is that he can't get the offense together well. He has the blame, but if it weren't for the Big Three's lineup that lost too badly, he wouldn't have been dismissed.
Considering changing an offensive head coach, it may ruin the team's already-drawn defense.
The Celtics chose Siberdu to take over and then invited Mike D'Anthony, who had just been dismissed from the Sun, as the chief assistant coach, to cooperate with Siberdu.
It is said that cooperation is more like an insurance policy. If Siberdu does not succeed in taking over, then D'Antoni will probably take over directly.
The outside world is not optimistic about such a strong conflict combination, the reason is:
"Offensiveness and defense are two extremes. If the Celtics want to please both sides, they will probably not please both sides in the end."
But in Li Ke's view, no matter how strong the Celtics are, they all have a real Big Three. If Rondo's possible growth is included, the Celtics' lineup will also be a quad-core.
Such a Celtic will have a high probability of continuing to sweep the NBA as long as Li Ke does not encounter injuries or cheats.
Then we have to talk about the Lakers. The Lakers have not signed up many players, and compared with history, there has been no change.
But Kobe is the point that he can never avoid.
Without the "brave" traits, Li Ke would not have won in Kobe's matchup.
Looking at the finals, the Bobcats' victory is inseparable from Li Ke's suppression of Kobe.
But the problem is that Kobe, who lost more and more, has become increasingly dull in the face of Li Ke's fighting spirit.
Finally, let’s talk about Magic and Rockets.
Needless to say, Magic continues to grow and has grown to the spark that can be exchanged for Lebang alone. With the cooperation of Rashad Lewis, Tkoglu and Jamal Nelson and other shooters, Magic is already a strong team at the finals level.
The Rockets are the same. The addition of Billups and Richard Hamilton directly defeated McGrady, who was already a useless man. In addition, the young players continued to grow. The Rockets, who fought seven games with the Lakers in the playoffs in 2009, probably had the strength to directly kill the Lakers.
...
Training will not be static. If you practice hard for a few days, there will always be a day or two holidays.
During the holidays, Li Ke will not work hard.
But the training of the breakfast club cannot be stopped.
Early in the morning, Li Ke and Tim Graver met.
Compared with the first few days of training, there is one person missing in the breakfast club these days.
That's right, it's Tucker.
Tucker insisted on this high-intensity special training at the breakfast club for a week.
Finally, after a training camp one day, I found Li Ke and said hello. I disappeared early the next morning.
The more I saw this scene, the more Tim Graver believed that the necessity of his special training was.
And, Michael Jordan and Sheldon Lee are the only two non-humans.
Jordan is already the god of basketball, and the future of Sheldon Lee in front of him is also unlimited.
Speaking of which, the cooperation contract between Li Ke and Tim Graver was just a short contract at the beginning.
But after Li Ke insisted on training at the breakfast club, the contract was extended.
There is no need to say more about the reason for the extension.
On the off day, Li Ke practiced until 7:30 in the morning and was sweating all over to David Falke.
"Go and take a shower. After we finish our flight, we should go to meet with AJ's senior management."
Li Ke's signature sneakers have been confirmed. In the name of "Like", the logo pattern is an L with a very small angle. The angle is forward, and the long tail is dragged behind the body of the letter, which looks a bit like a deformed Adidas logo.
The logo pattern has been confirmed, and what needs to be determined now is the specific design of the sneakers.
Li Ke actually didn't have much idea about design.
But Li Ke was not very relieved if he really threw it all to AJ's designers.
Therefore, he could only follow David Falke and go to talk to AJ's senior management.
Soon, Li Ke, who had been sweating all over, got on David Falke's special car.
I met with AJ's senior executives at a Western restaurant in Charlotte.
After chatting for a few words, I got to the point.
In terms of design, Li Ke’s requirements are very simple: “I hope it has a more technological sense, it is best to combine the logo and sneakers as a whole, not too abrupt…”
After a few simple words, AJ took out a supplementary agreement.
Li Ke threw it directly to Lin Qi and sat silently in the center waiting.
After a moment, Lin Qi nodded to Li Ke, and then he took out his signature pen and signed his name in the signature column.
"We will issue a first draft of the sneaker design as soon as possible and give it to you for review. If there is no problem, we will put it into production as quickly as possible..."
AJ's senior executives said what they would do after Li Ke signed the agreement.
But Li Ke is more concerned about: "So, is there a specific time to launch it?"
"Of course, our idea is to use the All-Star weekend and then use the All-Stars to do a wave of publicity."
“…”
The signature sneakers were finalized, and Li Ke was not idle either. He continued to follow David Falke to a Starbucks in a nearby neighborhood to shoot a Starbucks commercial short video.
Speaking of which, David Falke is getting more and more grateful that he would rather give up Li Ke’s Chinese market than sign Li Ke.
Now Li Ke, the Chinese market is extremely hot, but David Falke can't get a penny, which really makes David Falke feel a pity.
But looking at Li Ke's North American market, it may be a little worse than the Chinese market, but if you really want to compare it, it should be horizontally compared with other players.
Look at the North American endorsements that Li Ke received this summer, KFC, Starbucks, Spalding basketball, and Gatorade beverages. All of them should be.
...
Take a photo of advertising on holidays, earn some money, work hard on training days, prepare for the new season.
Soon, the preseason for the new season began.
The biggest difference between the Bobcats preseason, compared to last season, is that they have an extra long journey - the China Tournament!
David Stern knew very well that as the defending champion Bobcats, the popularity of this area in North America is not high.
But across the ocean, the popularity of bobcats is very good.
Such a team naturally cannot miss the Chinese tournament held by Stern to promote the NBA.
In this year's China Championship, David Stern also reduced the losses to Li Ke and Yao, mainly the teams where Da Sheng and Alien are located are not weak, so they can naturally give some roles.
Therefore, the Bobcats and the Knights will play a Chinese match in the Magic City.
On the other hand, the Rockets and the Lakers will also play a Chinese game in the capital.
After two games, the Chinese game will be over.
On October 16, the bobcat arrived in the Magic City.
After solving the problem of jet lag, we participated in some so-called community care activities in accordance with North American tradition.
The competition did not officially start until the 18th.
The highlight of the Bobcats vs. Cavaliers’ competition is of course Li Ke vs. Lebang.
But what was disappointing was that neither team had any effort in this Chinese game.
Mainly on the side of the Cavaliers, Lebang only played one quarter, and it was a variety of paddling competitions.
Although he paddled, he performed very mediocrely under the serious defense of Li Ke.
2 of 6 shots, only 6 points were scored.
In contrast, Li Ke admitted it the truth.
He performed a serious performance in front of his motherland's fans. He played for 30 minutes in the game, made 9 of 18 shots, scored 22 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
The Bobcats also won the Chinese game.
But overall, this Chinese game is a bit boring, because Li Ke is the only one who is serious, the Bobcats' old shark, and the Cavaliers' Lebang all play soy sauce.
"The promotion of the Chinese competition cannot be stopped in the preseason!"
So, after the game, domestic media published an article titled above.
I have to say that it did give Stern some inspiration.
He did consider putting the regular season overseas. Thinking of the Spring Festival battle that was already being prepared for this season, David Stern immediately had an idea, and he stopped the league's staff responsible for the schedule.
