Chapter 102 I'm too good at fooling(1/2)

Lin Ri has resumed training these days, and the entire Suns training team is accompanying him.

No newcomer in the Suns has enjoyed this kind of treatment in the past ten years. Not even Amar'e Stoudemire, the general manager of the Suns, has ever been so aggressive.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Amar'e Stoudemire was weak in many aspects at the time. Everything needed to start from the basics, and there were not many training projects that needed to be arranged.

This is not the case with Lin Ri. Many of his abilities are at a point where they can continue to be developed. Under such circumstances, these trainers naturally need to arrange training time more reasonably to allow Lin Ri to develop as comprehensively as possible.

Moreover, what makes these trainers a little headache is that Lin Ri has too many ideas of his own, and the items he wants to train will change almost every week, which makes them basically have to change a training plan every week.

Fortunately, Lin Ri is a diligent child. Although he has too many ideas and willfulness in training, he will complete all the training they arrange with quality and quantity.

With this training attitude, let alone changing a training plan every week, even if it is three days, uh, well, forget it, let’s just take it for a week. Even if it is a different training plan every week, they will accept it!

Lin Ri had been training by himself for about a week, and the American West Arena gradually became lively.

The Las Vegas Summer League will start in about half a month!

The Suns, who have signed up to participate in this year's Las Vegas Summer League, naturally have to start practicing.

The main purposes of these teams participating in the summer league can be roughly divided into two, one is to "Taobao", and the other is to let the rookies experience the atmosphere of the summer league in advance and become familiar with the rhythm of the NBA game.

The NCAA is arguably the best college league in the world.

But even so, compared to the pace of the NBA professional league, it is still a bit slow. The reason why many guys who are all-powerful in the NCAA have become mediocre or even unable to stay in the NBA is because, in addition to their lack of strength, it is also difficult to adapt.

The pace of the NBA game.

Also considering this factor affecting rookies, the Summer League came into being in 2002.

Of course, although the Summer League was only officially established in 2002, similar leagues have been around since the 1990s, but they were not so formalized at that time.

After being formalized in 2004, in just a few years of development, the NBA Summer League has become the first choice for many rookies to level up.

There are also many guys who have been eliminated by the league, seizing the opportunity of the summer league and returning to the NBA stage...

Because of this, this stage has become more and more intense now!

It even has a bit of a desperate atmosphere that even the NBA doesn't have.

The core of the Suns' team participating in the summer league this year is naturally the Sun and Stephen Curry.

Letting them "shoot more and hit more" in the game is also the only goal in the Suns' temporary summer league coaching staff manual.

For this reason, they also specially warned other players on this team.

If you dare not pass the ball to Lin Ri or Stephen Curry in any game, then be prepared to pack up and leave immediately after the game.

That's not all.

The Suns' training team also revolves around the two newcomers of the Suns. Only one trainer is assigned to take charge of a large group of other people, and the rest of the training team is concentrated on Lin Ri and Stephen Curry.

On the body.

"Man, do you want to stay and practice later?"

"Of course, that's for sure!"

Although Lin didn’t have much contact with Stephen Curry before they practiced together, they had about four or five times.

When Curry settled into his new home, he invited Lin Ri to play.

Three days ago, Lin spent 2 million to buy a three-bedroom, two-living house and specially asked Stephen Curry to come to the house to play.

Of course, Lin Ri also called Steve Nash of the Suns and others that day.

In other words, the two newcomers have now integrated into the Suns family.

When the two of them first came to Phoenix, Steve Nash and a few other "old guys" held a welcome party for the two of them. After having fun, the group of people immediately became much closer.

Stephen Curry and Lin Japan are both relatively easy-going guys, so even if they haven't seen each other for four or five days this time, there is no sense of strangeness between them.

No, after the team training ended on the first day, the two of them made an appointment to stay and practice together.

Lin Ri has been practicing extra ball control recently.

The system shows that his ability to control the ball is expected to improve during this period, so he practices additional ball control after training every day.

Lin Ri's current ball control ability has reached C level, and he is about to enter C+.

Lin Ri plans to improve his ball-handling ability to C+ before the summer league.

Coincidentally, what Stephen Curry is improving is also his ball-handling ability.

Stephen Curry played shooting guard before his sophomore year. It was not until last year that he switched to point guard at the suggestion of the head coach of Davidson College.

After all, the requirements for physical confrontation at the first position are not that high. In addition, Stephen Curry's height of 1.91 meters has no advantage at the second position, but the advantage is greater at the first position.

The current number 1 position in the league is generally around 1.88 meters tall.

It was also because of his transition to playing the one position that Stephen Curry played in the NCAA for one more year.

Judging from the current situation, this transformation is successful, which makes him a target that many teams are interested in selecting in this year's draft.

The final pick was as high as sixth overall in the first round.

If he had always played the second position, he definitely wouldn't have been drafted so high.

However, although the transformation was successful, Stephen Curry's dribbling ability has not yet reached the average level of NBA first position. Therefore, from the end of the NCAA to the present, he has been practicing his ball-handling ability.

Ever since, the two of them started having sex happily in the arena...

After the two of them were "having sex" like this for two weeks, Lin Ri's ball control ability successfully broke through to the C+ level. At the same time, his ball feel became better again, which allowed his passing ability to keep up.

The same as last time, there has been a big increase, the C+ level is 917 points, and it is about to reach the B- level.

It's just a pity that for the time being, he can only watch his passing ability stay at the top of C+.

The summer league will start the day after tomorrow, and all of them will have to go to Las Vegas tomorrow...and with the start of the summer league, additional training can only be interrupted for now.

It's a pity that we can only wait until the summer league is over to see if there is a chance to upgrade this ability to B-level.

"Stephen, it's time to go."

Since the flight is tomorrow morning, Lin Ri did not train for too long after training today. He planned to rest early tonight and adjust his physical condition.

Stephen Curry, who had been practicing dribbling next to him, turned his head and said "Hmm", and then said as if he had just heard what Lin Ri said: "I plan to practice for a while, you go first."

"Okay." Lin Ri nodded.

It's not that he can't see that something is wrong with Stephen Curry's condition.

In fact, since this week, this guy's overall mood has gradually become depressed.

Lin Ri wondered if something had happened to this guy, but because Stephen Curry didn't say anything, he didn't have the nerve to ask more.

"Then please pay attention to your time and don't practice too late. We will meet at the airport at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning!" Lin Ri reminded again.

"...Yeah." Stephen Curry nodded, but his reaction was still slow.

"..." Lin Ri wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say, so he simply patted him on the shoulder when passing by him and gave him silent encouragement.

"the sun..."

Just when Lin Ri finished taking the shot and his hand left Curry's shoulder, Curry called out to him.

"Huh?" Lin Ri turned around.

Stephen Curry is also looking at him: "Are you nervous? The summer league is about to start..."

"Nervous? Why are you nervous?" Lin Ri was puzzled.

It’s too late for him to get excited!

Since the end of the NCAA, he has not played a game for more than two months!

Moreover, in the summer league, when he meets a group of opponents with stronger comprehensive strength, he can also test how much his abilities have improved in the past two months of training.

Anyway, the tension doesn’t exist!

"If you don't play well... aren't you afraid that the fans will be disappointed or scold you?" Curry hesitated to express his thoughts.

"Uh..." Lin Ri was stunned for a moment, and then he finally understood why Curry was acting so abnormally during this period.

I'm afraid he won't be able to play well in the summer league!

However, Lin Ri also understands why Stephen Curry is so worried.

He also sees the attitude of the local Phoenix media and Phoenix fans towards Stephen Curry. To put it mildly, they are not optimistic about it. To put it bluntly, they don’t want this guy at all.

In such a public opinion environment, it is indeed easy for a newcomer to have problems with his mentality.

Even if this guy has played in the NCAA for three years and was the NCAA's regular season scoring leader last season, it is of no use.

If a person doesn't have random thoughts, he wouldn't be a human being.

But I understand, I understand, this suddenly asked Lin Ri to say something to comfort Stephen Curry. He really couldn't say anything for a while. He was stunned for four or five seconds. He scratched his right cheek and said what he originally thought.

He came out and said: "Actually, I am going to win the summer league this time. In my opinion, there is no problem at all for me to join forces with you and win the summer league championship!"

Lin Ri really thought so.

Just kidding, in the 2008-2009 season, the NCAA Finals MVP plus the regular season scoring average, can you still not win the summer league championship with such a configuration?

You know, although the opponents faced by the summer league are stronger in overall strength, the main players of each team are still the same group of players from the 2009 draft.
To be continued...
