The Timberwolves' new season training started in mid-August. The summer league led by Ogmon also ended very smoothly. Da Zhuang also watched some videos of the games. Wright, who was full of praise for Ogmon, also did the same.

A very detailed observation, made

For the No. 1 position, Wright, who is 1.96 meters tall, can be considered a tall and open position. This gives him a natural advantage in organizing connections and defending against each other, and there is also a big guy who I think is a little surprise.

, this guy also has a good mid-range shot.

However, being too thin and lacking in strength lead to a lack of breakthrough ability.

Generally speaking, after a certain period of training, it can be used as a qualified rotation.

The Timberwolves also successfully completed the signing of Wright, a four-year, 7 million rookie contract, but the next two years are team options.

Then the Timberwolves also started their preseason.

It's still the same routine as before. Basically, the entire preseason is using young and substitute players, and the main core like Oden is just given time to warm up.

And another surprise for Da Zhuang is the effect of Dinwiddie and the three participating in private training camps in the summer. In particular, LaVine's three-point shooting rate has been greatly improved.

Time soon came to October 10th. The entire Timberwolves team took a flight from Los Angeles Airport and arrived in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province, China. This was the first time that Shenzhen City hosted an NBA international game.

The first game of the China League between the Timberwolves and the Hornets will be played at the Longgang Universiade Center in Shenzhen.

Comparing the two teams, it is obvious that the Hornets attach great importance to this Chinese national championship. Joe, the leader of the team, personally leads the team. It is obvious that the Timberwolves' business development in the past two seasons, let alone the Hornets, which team in the league does not

Jealousy, the Timberwolves can be said to be the dominant player in the Chinese market in the past two years.

The Hornets now feel that they have a chance to compete with the Timberwolves, and naturally want to seize this opportunity.

Money has no borders.

Da Zhuang felt that if it weren't for Lin Shuhao's identity, Gang Leader Qiao would not have spent a huge price to sign Lin Shuhao, but Da Zhuang knew that the Hornets really wanted Lin Shuhao and hoped that Lin Shuhao could show his strength in the Timberwolves.

"Da Zhuang, I haven't congratulated you on successfully defending your title. Now you are truly a champion coach." After finally dealing with the enthusiastic fans at the airport, the Timberwolves also came to the hotel where they were staying. Da Zhuang didn't have time yet.

After cleaning up, I heard the doorbell ringing at the door. When I opened the door, I found it was Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.

Because Yi Jianlian had to participate in the training camp of the national team, he did not return to the Timberwolves. Instead, he chose to join the Timberwolves in Shenzhen City. In the just-concluded Asian Men's Basketball Championship, the Chinese Men's Basketball Team competing at home was also the first in four years.

Years later, Yi Jianlian regained the Asian Championship title. It was through this Asian Championship that Yi Jianlian officially established himself as the new leader of his national team.

But for the Chinese men's basketball team, the final test is next year's Olympic Games.

"Please come in, please come in. I should congratulate you and congratulate you on becoming the Winter Olympics ambassador."

Da Zhuang's words also made Yao Ming very happy.

"What's wrong? Tell me, a busy man like you must have something to do when he comes here." After the two of them sat down, Da Zhuang said.

"Okay, since you asked, let me tell you. I came here this time to ask you something. Do you think it is possible for us to get Shuhao Lin to join the national team?"

Yao Ming's words immediately stunned Da Zhuang.

"It may be possible, but as far as I know, the current national team should not be short of people at the No. 1 position, and you have to know the national policy. If Lin Shuhao joins the national team, he must give up his nationality.

This question cannot be avoided, and I’m afraid it depends on his wishes.”

After thinking for a while, Da Zhuang spoke.

"I know that we can provide some appropriate compensation for this. Now we just have to see if he has this willingness."

Da Zhuang is also a little scratching his head about this. He heard such rumors in his previous life, but nothing happened afterwards, so whether the men's basketball team invited Lin Shuhao in his previous life, Da Zhuang really doesn't know. In addition, this time

The same goes for Lin Shuhao’s contract extension.

Let Da Zhuang know clearly that although this guy is also of Chinese descent, he grew up in a beautiful country after all. Many of his ways of thinking are completely different from his own. In addition, the agent behind him will have no idea about this matter.

Da Zhuang really doesn’t know what the disadvantages will be.

"To tell you the truth, there are too many young players among those participating in the Olympics next year and lack enough competition experience. Moreover, this idea has been proposed before, but the policy at that time was still very tight, so it was more troublesome to operate.

But things are different now, and the policies are much more relaxed, so we want to try it, but it’s not appropriate for us to go directly to them,” Yao Ming said.

"You mean to ask me to come forward?"

"Yes, that's what I mean. I just don't know if it's inconvenient for you."

"There's no problem with me coming forward. Okay, then I'll find a time to ask him in private. But if he has any ideas, you'd better talk to him directly in person. By the way, why are you so concerned about the Basketball Association's affairs now?

Are you planning to join politics?" Da Zhuang said jokingly.

"No, I'm just helping."

"The results of the national team this time are not very good, so why are you so worried?"

"The main thing is for next year's Olympics."

"Okay, then I'll take some time to chat with him."

After the two left, Da Zhuang also sat there and thought about it. As for what he just said about the national team's performance this year being good, it was nothing more than a polite comment. For Da Zhuang, who has memories of his previous life, he knows it very well.

In the following years, some of the achievements of the Chinese men’s basketball team in the World Series were revealed.

Next year's Olympics will directly place him at the bottom of the group.

Later, in 2017, two national team teams were formed.

As for Lin Shuhao's matter, Da Zhuang felt that the most he could do was help ask, and he would not say anything else, because it was best to make such a big decision by his own choice.

On October 11, the first game of the Chinese national game between the Timberwolves and the Hornets was also held as scheduled.

In order to cope with the tasks of the league, both sides arranged their main players to play. For the Timberwolves, Oden, Yi Jianlian, Bennett, Dinwiddie and Middleton became the starting lineup for this game.

The Hornets' starters are Shu Hao Lin, Kemba Walker, Batum, Marvin Williams and Jefferson.

When Da Zhuang saw the opponent's starting lineup, he was also stunned. The Hornets actually created a lineup with two point guards.
