Taking the Head Start

The Thunder still attaches great importance to this training camp.

Not only was Presti present in person, but Thunder coach Scott Brooks was also present.

For Coach Brooks, controversy has always accompanied his coaching career.

As a young coach who is only 45 years old this year, in the second year of his coaching career, he made the Thunder team, which had only 23 wins and 59 losses the previous year, soar into the sky. This year, he achieved the eighth place in the Western Conference with 50 wins and 32 losses.

Entering the playoffs, we had 27 more wins than the previous year.

Of course, how much of this is due to the progress of the Thunder's three young masters is unknown.

Anyway, what is certain is that his record is worth a billion points!

However, although his tactical ability has been criticized, his handling of player relations has always been commendable. In addition, he is also good at cultivating players and tapping their potential. It can be said that this young army of the Thunder can become talented.

In addition to their own outstanding talents, they are also inseparable from the training of Brooks.

"What do you think?"

When he saw Lip chasing Bledsoe, Presti asked Brooks on the side.

"The talent is indeed good! It's just..."

Brooks did not say the second half of the sentence, but Presti heard the implication of Brooks' words. Obviously, he did not think highly of Li Pu.

If the head coach is not optimistic, then even if he chooses Li Pu, he will have very few opportunities in the future.

"Prince! How far can you go? I'm looking forward to it more and more!"

Due to Li Pu's successful defense, the hand was converted again.

This time Vasquez firmly controlled the ball in the frontcourt and did not give Bledsoe another chance to steal.

After arriving in the frontcourt, Li Pu's presence was instantly reduced.

During the entire offense, the basketball did not pass through Li Pu's hands at all. After some simple transmission, point guard Vasquez finally passed the ball to Poundsett in the corner, and the latter made a three-pointer out of the frame.

The moment Poundset took action, Bai Ade immediately blocked Li Pu behind him.

Bai Ade's actions reminded Lip of what Collison said to him during training: "The most important thing about grabbing rebounds is not to take off or reach out. Everyone can do that. The most important thing is to pay attention to the position and position your body."

The opponent is firmly stuck behind you!"

The Bai Ade in front of him was like this. There was no sloppiness in his movements. The whole movement seemed to have been done countless times, cleanly and neatly, leaving Li Pu without any chance.

"Then if I'm not stuck in position, can't I grab rebounds?"

"Of course not, it's just that this kind of thing is not something that an ordinary person with mediocre talent like me can do! It requires extremely high talent and luck in your opponent's mistakes! This kind of thing is hard to come by!"

"It's so rare that you can't ask for it? Isn't this opportunity coming?"

Just when Bai Ade had Li Pu firmly stuck behind him, thinking that the rebound was his own, suddenly Bai Ade felt the power behind him loosen, and then two bamboo poles appeared above his head.

like arms.

The moment the basketball popped out of the basket, Li Pu jumped up high and caught the basketball with his big hands through Bai Ade.

This was not over yet. Before Bai Ade could react, Li Pu was in the air. Although his body had already begun to fall, he still dunked the ball into the basket with one hand.

Moreover, what surprised everyone even more was that when Li Pu finished dunking and landed, one of his hands was still holding the basket.

Although the basket was pulled down a lot by him, you must know that there is a big white fat man who is 213cm and weighs more than 200 kilograms between him and the basket!

This height and wingspan are simply outrageous!

"Eh? Prince, is this guy full of firepower as soon as he comes up?"

Just when Presti and Brooks were shocked by Lip's bouncing and static talents, Collison's voice came to their ears.

"Why are you here?" Presti asked in surprise.

"Isn't this boring, come and take a look!" Collison, still wearing his blue sportswear today, said with a smile.

"You came just in time to tell the coach and me about Prince!"

"Then you asked the wrong person, I don't understand!" Collison shook his head.

"Are you kidding me? Haven't you been in contact with him for half a month?"

"I knew Prince half a month ago, not him now. It's been half a month, and I don't know how much this guy has improved!" Collison said with emotion.

Before he finished speaking, it was the Li Pu team's turn to defend.

Bledsoe took the lead and once again rushed into the team's defense alone.

Since both teams were put together temporarily, there was almost no tacit understanding of cooperation.

Therefore, regardless of offense or defense, there are almost no decent tactics.

As a result, a defender with strong impact like Bledsoe can easily tear apart the opponent's defense.

After breaking through Vasquez's defense again, Bledsoe rushed inside and rushed towards Lip.

In the last round, he was chased by Lip. Although Bledsoe showed no expression on the surface, he had already engraved Lip in his heart. Now that he has the opportunity, he will naturally return the favor.

Seeing Bledsoe's actions, Lip sighed in his heart.

Why are these guys so straightforward? If I hit you, do you have to pay me back?

Or is it a frontal approach?

In an instant, after Bledsoe came to Lip, he directly chose to take off from the ball, using his own body to find Lip's body in the air to fight.

It has to be said that this little steel cannon-like body is really hard. Li Pu was sore from his blow, and his whole body also retreated due to Bledsoe's impact.

However, just like this, he fought and retreated. When Bledsoe picked up the basket, the basketball was still blocked by Lip, who raised his hands high.

"Damn it!" Bledsoe cursed in the air when he realized that he was covered again.

After he fell, he turned around to save the ball, but unexpectedly found that the basketball fell into Bai Ade's hands. He was overjoyed, and Bai Ade took the opportunity to lay up.

The fact is just as Bledsoe thought. After Baiad got the ball, he immediately chose to go for a layup. However, at this moment, a big hand appeared near the basket and slapped the ball away.

Sideline.

It’s Li Pu again!

After blocking Bledsoe, he jumped high again and blocked Ade.

For a moment, Bledsoe and Baird looked at Li Pu, who was cheering under the basket with his hands raised, and felt that his figure was so tall and insurmountable.

What kind of monster is this?

Judging from his performance at this time, how could he fall out of the lottery?

"How could he..."

It wasn't just the players on the field who had such questions. Brooks also looked at Presti with an incredulous expression.

Presti also looked puzzled.

Although he knew that Li Pu had great potential, it was precisely for this reason that he gave Li Pu a verbal promise.

However, his idea at the time was to lock him up with a late first-round pick for four years to see if he could grow.

The reason why there is no need for a second-round pick is that firstly, he is afraid that other teams will intercept Hu, and secondly, the second-round pick only has two years, and he believes that it will take a long time to train Li Pu. Two years is not enough.

If you really train them in the future, you will need to spend more money to sign contracts, otherwise you will be training talents for others.

Although he often does this kind of thing...

As for wasting a first-round pick, come on, I have three first-round picks, so what if I waste one?

He is so wealthy!

Therefore, in this trial, as long as Li Pu's performance is not as bad as in the joint trial, Presti will choose him!

But what Presti didn't expect was that this guy actually completed his transformation within a month and was completely different from before!

What happened this month? How did he do it?

I still remember that when Collison told him, he once thought that what Collison said was a bit exaggerated. Now it seems that this is not an exaggeration! It is clearly conservative!

Presti looked at Collison, who shrugged and said, "I told you, I don't know, don't look at me like that again!"
Chapter completed!
