NBA: No. 1 Forward

Chapter 114: Team Training Camp, Paul Millsap



The Big Three gave the Cavaliers another profound education in the playoffs.

"The old brothers haven\'t touched the championship trophy yet, you little guy who has just entered the league for a few years, why worry!" The wolf king\'s roar resounded throughout the Eastern Conference semifinals.

As a result, Xiao Zhan fell to the Eastern Conference semifinals.

At this time, James\' heart was ashamed, didn\'t you say that the future is mine?

They are all liars!

Unexpectedly, the Wolf King was injured and reimbursed for the season in 2009, which gave James the hope of standing in the finals again.

Unexpectedly, the Eastern Conference finals were bruised by the Orlando Magic, and James\' Cavaliers couldn\'t restrain the Warcraft that came out of the cage.

Once again, it fell 4:2 in the Eastern Conference Finals.

This time he also asked the management to strengthen. The Cavaliers also traded for the Sharks whose attendance rate exploded last season.

The Sharks played 75 games last season, averaging 17.8 points and 8.4 rebounds per game. This has to admire the Suns\' miracle doctor!

Because the last time he played more than 75 games was in the 1999-2000 season, he played 79 games in that season, averaging 29.7 points and 13.6 rebounds per game, starting the Lakers\' journey to three consecutive championships!

You know, that\'s a shark at its peak.

Who would have thought that the 36-year-old Shark would have a second spring last season.

But it is what it is. Therefore, James also greatly appreciates the Cavaliers\' trade of O\'Neal.

In a villa in Cleveland, a secondary player looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Howard, get ready to meet the emperor\'s wrath!"

The Magic also signed Brandon Bass, Matt Barnes, and Jason Williams in the free market, mainly to strengthen the bench lineup. They also reached the finals last game, and finally lost Lost to the Lakers, they also want to make a comeback this season.

In addition to the Magic and the Cavaliers in the East, which are the favorites to win the championship next season, there is another team that cannot be ignored, and that is the Celtics.

Wolf King Garnett\'s recovery brought the Big Three back together in Boston. Although I don\'t know how much this injury has affected Garnett, but after all, he is the iron-blooded Nate, the shadow of a famous tree, and he is also a power forward. Only Deng Daidai of the Spurs can fight him.

And point guard Rajon Rondo has become more mature after these few playoffs.

And Boston also signed Rasheed Wallace in the free market.

Rasheed Wallace originally planned to retire, but was found by the management of the Boston Celtics, and Harder also tempted him: Hey, man, listen to me, you don’t want to win another championship before you retire ?

Rasheed Wallace: I look down on anyone, but Lao Tzu\'s championship was won by real fights, not by hugging each other.

Then, he agreed to join the Celtics. Who would dislike the championship?

The addition of Rasheed Wallace also strengthened the Celtics\' bench lineup.

So far, the Celtics are the only recognized team that can compete with the Lakers!

One west and one east, one yellow and one green, the yellow-green battle once again attracted everyone\'s attention.

Of course, there are other favorite teams to win the championship: such as the Nuggets, Jazz, Mavericks, Spurs, Suns, Thunder...

Well, they are all Western Conference teams, and this year\'s Western Conference can be said to be full of heroes, which is extraordinarily lively.

The management of the Knicks also knew that competing for the championship with this group of big shots was purely courting death.

It doesn\'t matter what lineup you have.

With the addition of Lian Dao and the signing of Paul Millsap in the free market, their goal for the new season is to run the lineup and train troops.

Well, this is the team goal set by the management!

It’s not promising, isn’t it? There’s no way around it. In the free market, all capable players are snatched up by those championship teams, and some veterans are willing to cut their salaries and want to join the yellow-green army. Who doesn’t want to be able to touch that at the end of their careers? An O\'Brien Cup.

After returning to New York, Lian Dao began to devote himself to training.

The Knicks\' team training camp will not start until mid-September, and most of the Knicks\' players are now on vacation.

In other words, Lian Dao\'s training time is less than a month.

He needs to continue to improve his low-post skills and mid-range shooting in less than one month, and at the same time strengthen his strength and confrontation.

The task is very heavy, and the time is a bit tight for Lian Dao.

But in this month\'s time, I can still get some improvement, and Lian Dao also wants to come to the key of the Madison Square training arena.

It has to be said that the NBA\'s training facilities are much more professional than the NCAA\'s.

The training equipment room inside has everything that one expects to find.

During this month, Lian Dao was also under the guidance of Chris Brickley\'s training team, and he could feel the progress visible to the naked eye every day.

With the passage of time, the footsteps of the new season are gradually approaching, and the first Knicks to report to the arena turned out to be Paul Millsap.

Paul Millsap was also very surprised to see Lian Dao sweating profusely in the training arena.

He also knows the Knicks\' rookie No. 1 pick.

Moreover, he also knows that Lian Dao has just signed a huge amount of sneaker contract, shouldn\'t he be spending and enjoying at this time?

There\'s actually nothing wrong with him thinking that way, because that\'s basically what most black players do.

"At this time, shouldn\'t you be on vacation?" Paul Millsap\'s voice interrupted Lian Dao\'s mid-range shooting training.

Lian Dao also turned his head to look.

This was also the first time Lian Dao met Paul Millsap.

During this period, Paul Millsap\'s beard hadn\'t grown out yet, and the muscles all over his body bulged giving him a fierce feeling.

Lian Dao still has some understanding of Paul Millsap. Paul Millsap is a counterattack that belongs to the second rotation and is very inspirational.

He has a strong body, but his movement speed is relatively weak compared to small forwards, but Paul Millsap has long wingspan, sufficient strength, excellent jumping ability, accurate prediction, and especially excellent rebounding ability.

Although it is only 2.03 meters, it is not a disadvantage at the power forward position. Moreover, the movement speed that was originally at a disadvantage in the small forward position has become a strong advantage in the power forward position.

And in the future, he was also selected to the All-Star team four times.

At this time, Paul Millsap does not have many opportunities in the Jazz. He is really at the 4th and 5th positions. The Jazz has too many people who can play, and no one will put most of their energy on a second-round pick. body.

Although Jerry Sloan was optimistic about this second-round pick, he still did not pay attention to Paul Millsap. After all, he was selected from the second round with the 41st overall pick. Jerry Sloan still underestimated Paul Millsap. • Millsap\'s talent.

Otherwise, the Knicks would not have picked up the bargain.

Historically, on November 10, 2010, the Jazz played against the Heat\'s Big Three. With 28 seconds left in the game, the Jazz trailed by 8 points 90-98, and the situation was over.

At this time Millsap hit a three-pointer, which was the third three-pointer in his career in five years.

Then, with 21 seconds left in the game, Deron hit a three-pointer.

At 12.1 seconds, Millsap hit another three-pointer; at 4 seconds, Millsap hit the third consecutive three-pointer.

Then, after Wade made two free throws, the Jazz trailed by two points 102-104.

At this time, despite hitting three consecutive three-pointers to help the team pull from the brink of failure to only two points away, Salt Lake City still did not leave Millsap with their chance to comeback.

The head star Deron left the field with six fouls, and the Jazz handed over the task of the last shot to CJ Myers, and Myers missed a three-pointer.

Millsap made a tip-up at the buzzer in the air, tying the score at the last second.

In the last 28 seconds of the game, Millsap scored 11 points alone, creating the "Millsap moment" and leading the Jazz to push the Heat into overtime and finally win.

However, the Knicks cut off Millsap this summer, so Lian Dao felt that Newx\'s IQ was actually online!
