182. How to make the boss (7500+ words please subscribe~)

It's not a suit or coat look.

Liu Xiu, who is casually dressed, wearing glasses and smiling, makes a good impression at first sight.

But McDyess in the 1995 class, Raheem in the 1996 class, and Harrington in the 1998 class are not simple young men.

They knew that the rookie in front of them was definitely not as harmless as he seemed.

Randolph next to him seems to be more in line with the overall temperament of the Trail Blazers.

Randolph's body type was that of someone who was caught and imprisoned for wandering the streets, robbing money, collecting protection money, and forcing girls into prostitution.

In terms of appearance, Randolph's type of appearance is very interesting, and he looks quite honest and silly when he smiles.

But his face dropped, looking very troubled.

Speaking of which, the most harmful thing is not Randolph, but the head coach...

Maurice Cheeks, who looked too sloppy and dressed too sloppily, touched the stubble on his chin and said, "Let's get to know each other."

With their frivolous tone and uninhibited appearance, the three newcomers are worthy of being the head coach of the prison team!

"Good afternoon, I am Sharif Abdul Rahim, you can call me Sharif."

Raheem was the first to stand up and introduce himself.

Educated and polite.

Raheem gives new teammates and new coaches such a feeling.

In the past few days, Liu Xiu has read some information about the three new teammates.

Raheem was regarded as the second Grant Hill when he first entered the NBA.

The family is very rich, very rich, and has its own charitable foundation... The family background is similar to that of Grant Hill, whose mother and Hillary were roommates.

But he is a little different from Hill. Hill has an easy-going personality, has leadership skills, and can talk and laugh with the President of the United States.

Raheem is known as the noble son of basketball.

It’s not that it’s hard to get along with, it’s just...

While others thought Raheem's self-introduction was over, it wasn't.

"...I can play both power forward and small forward positions. When I play power forward, I like to play fast-paced games. When I play small forward, I like to play positional warfare. On the defensive end, I retreat and counterattack quickly...I usually like bowling and

Golf, I like to go to Hawaii to fly in the offseason, and I like stock trading..."

Maurice Cheeks almost reached his waist.

This golden generation's first flower show is really... special.

Raheem is known as a good boy, and he has not received much negative news in all the years he has been in the NBA.

He plays hard and was once evaluated as a model player by the owner of the Grizzlies.

But he was traded twice in a row during his peak period...

Anyway, it was my first contact with him, and Maurice Cheeks, who was once a top player, felt that Raheem didn't have the temperament to be a boss at all.

When talking about hobbies... Liu Xiu felt like he was showing off his wealth?

When the words came out of Rahim's mouth, it gave the impression that he was not showing off his wealth, but really just talking about his daily life.

But not that flattering.

The main thing is... is your self-introduction so convoluted?

No, McDyess had a black line and introduced himself: "I'm Antonio McDyess. I used to play power forward, but now I play center... I usually like to help at the pet rescue center..."

I forced myself to force out more than two hundred words.

Speaking of the latter part, McDyess's coal-black face turned red, obviously he couldn't make it up.

McDyess only looked at looks, and he really fits the temperament of the Trail Blazers.

But her tone of voice is gentle and her self-introduction makes people feel comfortable and natural.

It was Harrington's turn: "My surname is Harrington, just call me Al. I can play many positions, handle the ball, grab rebounds, anything. I'm known as the Orange State Magic..."

The feeling of those present - come as soon as you open your mouth!

Liu Xiu summed it up, and Harrington said: I am a jack-of-all-trades player, I love to brag and cause trouble.

If McDyess has the temperament of the Trail Blazers, Harrington should belong to the Prison Team.

Randolph felt like "I am the eldest brother" and looked at Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu showed a warm smile and said: "My name is Liu Xiu, just call me by my English name Jess. My favorite sport is basketball, and I usually like to practice boxing."

Maurice Cheeks and Randolph felt that the newcomer was going to be deceived by Liu Xiu's face again.

As they both thought, the three of them felt that the warden might not be as difficult to get along with as they thought.

After Liu Xiu introduced himself, he said to Randolph: "It's your turn to be the butcher. Please introduce yourself simply and don't read a short essay that makes my head hurt."

Why is his tone full of disgust?

short essay……

The three people immediately realized that they disliked their verbosity!

"Healing value +38, from Al Harrington."

"Healing value +16, from Antonio McDyess."

"Healing +9, from Sharif Rahim."

There aren't many emotions related to basketball, but as a teammate, there is still a little bit of it.

The three of them swallowed back the thought that Liu Xiu was easy to get along with.

Randolph looked at the three new teammates and felt very sympathetic. When he introduced himself, his way of speaking and tone of voice became a little gentler unconsciously.

People or things always need to be compared to make differences.

The three new arrivals looked at each other - as expected, they couldn't just look at their faces!

Randolph, who doesn't look like a good guy and is nicknamed the Butcher, turns out to be a good guy!

…

…

The next day came, February 16th, the last day of the All-Star Weekend.

For the Trail Blazers, the holiday ended yesterday.

At 9 o'clock this morning, everyone gathered at the airport.

The second half of the season started with a mighty six consecutive away games.

Having just gone through a big trade, they are facing such a schedule. After the All-Star Weekend, major media had low expectations for the Trail Blazers in the second half of the season.

As for the integration and running-in of the three new players... there is no time to run-in through training and other things, they can only adapt in actual combat.

However, unlike what Maurice Cheeks predicted, Raheem and McDyess are players with better personalities and want to work hard to integrate into the team. However, Harrington is the one who can get along with his teammates faster.

people.

When they were assembled at the airport, Harrington had already chatted with some of his teammates. On the plane, he even encouraged his teammates to play cards together. Everyone he met called him "brother"... He was very good at making things happen.

As for Raheem, the noble son of the basketball world, McDyess, who comes from a middle-class family, is well-educated, but precisely because of his education and good background, he cannot integrate into such an environment.

Fortunately, because the two are veterans who have played together for many years, their teammates respect them somewhat and do not blame them for Tianzun being traded away. The two of them do not feel any sense of being excluded.

In this case, the two chose to have a good relationship with the 'good teammate' who made them feel at ease.

This person is Randolph.

Randolph never imagined that he, who was the team's biggest ruffian a week ago, would now be regarded as a good person.

Unlike Tianzun, Tianzun has no desire to be the boss and has no boss temperament at all.

Although Randolph was not prepared, he had both of these points!

The two new teammates surrendered. Even if Randolph was not ready, he began to learn how to help the new teammates integrate like a boss.

By accident, Randolph's journey to becoming a boss began...

…

Maurice Cheeks came to the corner of the back row and said to Liu Xiu: "Warden, don't you want to talk more with your new teammates?"

Liu Xiu responded: "No, it's too much trouble... The butcher was quite happy chatting with them."

Maurice Cheeks looked at the video of McDyess' game that Liu Xiu was watching and didn't say much. He sat aside and went to sleep.

He wanted to cultivate Liu Xiu's ability in this area, but Liu Xiu was unwilling and he would not force it.

As usual, Liu Xiu would sit in a corner when he got on the plane, watching videos or sleeping.

When it comes to building a good relationship with new teammates, he didn't take the initiative to build a good relationship with anyone when he first entered the NBA, okay?
