Chapter 086 The cruelty of Xia Lian
"His speed is too exaggerated!" This sentence is the most common thing that Knicks' physical trainer Mark Duber said during the time he was training with Lin Yi.
Lin Yi has a very good figure and lines. His current naked feet are 221 cm tall, his shoes are 224 cm tall, his wingspan is 235 cm, and his standing height is 296 cm.
"He is simply Michael Jordan, the first-place player." Mark Duber has never seen such a player before, because Lin Yi's flexibility is incredible.
There are not many big men in the league who are very fast, but if you want to talk about coordination and flexibility, you will definitely not be able to do this like Lin Yi.
Run back to the penalty area for 10.47 seconds!
3/4 basketball court sprint for 3.15 seconds.
3/4 basketball court dribbles the ball and sprints for 3.30 seconds!
Too exaggerated!
What is this concept? Generally speaking, it is not surprising that big men can run back and run in the penalty area and 3/4 basketball court sprint, because some big men with strong mobility in the league can also run at this speed. After all, long legs have advantages.
But if you dribble, it will be different! Most big men in the league, especially those over seven feet, will dribble the ball in the 3/4 basketball court, and sprint in more than 4.5 seconds!
You should know that LeBron James' 3/4 basketball court dribbling is only 3.22 seconds, "old gangster" Michael Jordan's 3/4 basketball court dribbling is 3.06 seconds, and Chris Paul's 3/4 basketball court dribbling is 3.22 seconds.
Too scary!
Mark Duber didn't know why the Clippers used Griffin to trade Lin Yi. Lin Yi has a pair of super big hands, and no matter how you look at it, they are all the embryos of super centers.
Moreover, Lin Yi has a very strong ability to stagnate the air. Mark Duber really couldn't imagine the scene where Lin Yi flat-frame dunks after practicing core strength and jumping.
"If the league dares to use those traditional big men to fight him, just wait for him to beat him up!" Mark Duber thought to himself.
God bless New York!
The Knicks are definitely about to rise!
With this talent, Mark Duber's saliva was flowing out.
"Lin, just play casually in the summer league. Believe me, after watching your recent trial video, Mike wanted to finish his vacation early to see you train." Before Lin Yi set out to Las Vegas, Mark Duber instructed.
Lin Yi nodded. He mainly adapts to the summer league and will not make too much effort.
...
On July 9, Lin Yi came to the Knicks Training Camp in Las Vegas to report.
This time, the Knicks' third assistant coach Donaldson.
"My God, New York really found a treasure." Donaldson had a premonition when he saw Lin Yi that this kid would definitely become a star.
Are the Clippers crazy? They actually gave us such a treasure?
There are 22 teams participating in the Las Vegas Summer League this time, Stephen Curry and Griffin will participate, and the Knicks and the Warriors will have a game.
Donaldson asked: "What games are you going to play?"
Is this the treatment of the top scorer?
Lin Yi found that the eyes from his teammates were no longer jealousy, it was pure hatred!
For these marginal players, the summer league is their best chance to enter the NBA, but for Lin Yi, it's like a vacation.
Lin Yi decided to fight against the Warriors and the Cavaliers.
The game against the Warriors was his first time with Stephen Curry as an opponent. He was curious whether the elementary school student would misjudgment the ball to him.
As for the fight against the Knights, it was because the Knights were relatively weak, and Lin Yi came to adapt, not to seek abuse, so he was still very clear about this.
...
On July 10, the Las Vegas Summer League officially started. Lin Yi wore a suit and watched the Knicks' first game on the sidelines. The Knicks finally lost to the Philadelphia 76ers 57-88.
The most eye-catching performance in this game was the 76ers rookie Holiday. With 25 points, he almost beat the Knicks' back line. As a new member of the "2009 Rookie Filling Group", Holiday also chatted with Lin Yi for a while after the game.
"I suggest you practice more three-pointers. Your breakthrough is very sharp. If you can combine three-pointers, you will definitely become the main point guard of the 76ers very quickly." Lin Yi remembers that Holiday had three-pointers, but it was not very stable and did not take enough shots.
The future is the three-point league. Holiday is actually of good quality, but it is always underestimated.
Holiday listened carefully to the group leader's advice. Lin Yi was very curious. If all the rookies in 2009 were played in the future, could he sell tickets for summer special training?
Come on, Lin Yi’s special training, don’t miss it when you pass by, be honest, let’s see Lin Yi teach you how to become an all-star in Yixia.
...
Although it is mainly adaptable, Lin Yi still participates in the team's training normally.
The Knicks' group of people participating in the Summer League are not very strong, and Lin Yi has almost never heard of the names of these people.
At this time, the person responsible for marking Lin Yi in the training match was Elbaron, the main center of the Knicks Summer League. The 211 cm tall inside player had already been tortured by Lin Yi during training.
Elbaron is an NBA fringe. His best season in his career was in the 2007/08 season for the Heat. That season, he played 46 games, averaging 19.3 minutes per game, and averaged 7.1 points and 4.3 rebounds per game.
Elbaron, who weighs 111 kg, has a small mid-range shot, but he, who claims to be a space-type insider, is completely invisible to Lin Yi.
His movement speed is too slow to keep up with Lin Yi's footsteps. This is Lin Yi's misalignment advantage. His actual level is not high, but he can always make misalignment by using his height and speed and dribbling.
Elbaron looked desperate. Sure enough, people were so angry that they were so angry. Are the top scorers so cruel? After Elbaron was shaken away by Lin Yi using Crossover again, he wanted to apply to withdraw from this training class.
However, just as Lin Yi shook away Elbaron and broke into the penalty area, a small man suddenly rushed over and he threw Lin Yi down.
The Knicks' coaching staff was frightened. Their first reaction was whether Lin Yi was injured?
On the field, when Lin Yi stood up, he found a black chirp with a very funny face facing him.
What a familiar face!
Donaldson hurried over to inquire about Lin Yi's situation. After the team doctor confirmed that Lin Yi was fine, Donaldson said to the little black man who had just knocked down Lin Yi: "Dokey! Come and apologize to Lin, otherwise you will get out now!"
Lin Yi is the Knicks' treasure. Donaldson does not allow Lin Yi to have any accidents during training, otherwise D'Antoni would have shitted him!
However, Lin Yi felt that it was nothing, because this little man named Dodge had no malice. He even protected himself when he threw himself down. Otherwise, Lin Yi would probably have to use healing techniques to do the trick just now.
But why does this person named Dodge look so familiar?
At this time, the attention of other Knicks players was attracted. At this time, Lin Yi discovered that this little man named Dodge was very popular in the team.
Because the other teams of the Knicks looked at Lin Yi with some anger.
Dodge felt a little aggrieved. He walked to Lin Yi, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, please forgive me, I was reckless just now."
To be honest, Lin Yi doesn't feel that Dodge needs to apologize to him in one defense.
Lin Yi feels that the Knicks are overprotecting themselves. After all, if you go to the NBA in the future, you will definitely encounter such a thing, especially in the playoffs. Who will make you easy layups?
Moreover, Dodge just took care of the defense very seriously, and Lin Yi himself was a little distracted and relaxed.
But why does this little black man named Dodge look so familiar?
After Dodge apologized, Donaldson's assistant coach did not give up and punished him for going back to reflect on him.
Lin Yi was a little moved, so he asked Elbaron, "What is the full name of Dodge?"
Elbaron replied: "Doch Norris, Lin, don't blame Dodge, he didn't mean it. You are the top scorer, and no one dares to take you into strength. Dodge is usually trained seriously, so..."
Of course, Lin Yi knew that Dodge Norris did not mean it. If he really wanted to mess with him just now, Lin Yi would not pull him when he fell down, and he would use his body as a mat for himself. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to be careful.
"Does he have a brother named Muqi?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
Elbaron nodded, "Muchi is his brother, he used to play in the NBA."
Lin Yi suddenly realized that it was like that!
Muchinoris's younger brother?
No wonder they all look so funny.
Lin Yi felt that it was necessary to tell Donaldson's assistant coach that he came to Xia Lian to exercise. If he protected himself like this, let alone the other Knicks players were angry, Lin Yi himself was not feeling well.
How could there be no collision when playing basketball? I am not a woman, and Lin Yi prefers the pleasure of muscle fighting more than a big jump shot in iron blood.
However, it is indeed not easy for players to play in the summer league. The summer league is the only opportunity for them to find a job. Everyone wants to play well and go to the NBA, so they play hard. And you have to know that the salary in the summer league is pitifully low, but this salary is even very important to them.
The NBA is sometimes so cold and ruthless.
If Lin Yi was not the top scorer but a marginal person, his treatment would be completely different.
