Wang Dalin has been living in Miami for more than three months. He may not know about other places, but he is very familiar with the area near the Heat training facility.
The "Old Locke" fast food restaurant Grant mentioned is in this neighborhood. It's not too far from the arena. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk.
The donuts at Old Locke¡¯s are $1.50 each, which is 50 cents more expensive than most street fast food restaurants.
Wang Dalin thinks it is indeed more delicious. No wonder Heat veterans like Mourning and Hardaway want to buy his product.
Taking a big bite of the donut in his hand, Moning patted Wang Dalin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Rookie, good job!"
Wang Dalin smiled but cursed in his heart: "Old man, eating something so sweet is not good for your kidneys"
In fact, it is true that old players bully rookies in NBA teams, but they are only a minority. In most cases, these are just friendly jokes.
Old players do not have to carry a bag or buy donuts for rookies. It is just that the team culture has been formed over the years. Old players will naturally enjoy certain privileges, and everyone has inherited it with a tacit understanding.
It is said that when LeBron James first joined the Cavaliers, he carried a bag for Ricky Davis and was even ordered to buy donuts a few blocks away
During the training on the second day, Wang Dalin discovered that the reason why veteran players were able to enjoy these privileges was not for no reason!
Wang Dalin was really shocked when he saw Hardaway, Mason, Green, Marley, and Coswell, all old men in their thirties sweating from practice.
I have heard that Riley likes to do "devil's special training" the most. Unexpectedly, he would do this on the second day of training. Wang Dalin had experienced it firsthand.
With this amount of training, not to mention veterans in their thirties, even young people like House and Brown have been trained to death.
Wang Dalin originally thought that he would not be able to get much playing time in his rookie season. The physical strength of 61 would definitely be enough. How could he have expected this situation?
Of course, the playing time will be very little. This physical strength is certainly enough on the competition field, but what about the training field?
"Damn it! It seems that the points added before were a bit hasty!"
After completing the fourth phase of tasks, the system¡¯s fifth phase of tasks has naturally been released, but none of these tasks were completed during training:
"Task 1: Play in the NBA preseason, reward: 500 points!"
"Task 2: Get 5 points or 5 rebounds or 5 assists in a single game in the NBA preseason, reward: 500 points!"
"Task 3: Provide 1 block or 1 steal in a single game in the NBA preseason, reward: 500 points!"
"Task 4: Score a 'double-double' in a single game in the NBA preseason. Reward: 2,000 points!"
"Task 5: Play in the NBA regular season, reward: The host can specify any ability value to increase by 5 points!"
Except for the last item, it was all about the preseason, and Wang Dalin was speechless.
Those who have obviously entered the Heat's regular season roster include Tim Hardaway, Eddie Jones, Brian Grant, Anthony Mason, AC Green, Dan Marley, Bruce Bowen, and Anthony Carter. , Ricky Davis, Eddie House and Duane Causwell, the others' contracts are non-guaranteed (Mourning is due to injury).
The maximum number of players on a team's roster is 15. Those who have not yet been confirmed to be on the roster include Ernest Brown, Jamal Robinson, Todd Fowler, Don Macron and Wang Dalin. He has to follow these players. Several are vying for the few regular season spots.
Of course, his main opponent is Don Macron. After all, this is a power forward with a height of 208cm, the same position as Wang Dalin currently.
As for Brown, his fate has long been determined and he should be sent to the Development League before the start of the regular season. No way, he can't compete with Todd Fowler as a meat shield center, who has played in the NBA for 4 seasons.
Todd Fowler was the 11th pick in the first round of 1996, and his draft pick that year was higher than the "Black Mamba". Although this guy has never been able to achieve anything in the past four seasons, he is still a lottery pick. Naturally, the Heat want to bet on whether he still has talents that have not yet been realized.
And among the people who are definitely selected for the big list, there is already Duane Causwell, a 213cm tall center. Green and Grant can also take up the center position at any time. How can there be Brown's position?
The afternoon training was finally over. Wang Dalin was as tired as a dead dog?Of course everyone else on the Heat team is similar to him.
Fortunately, Wang Dalin was quite happy to be able to eat nutritious meals provided by the team after the training camp started.
But when he eats it, he wants to curse his mother. Isn¡¯t this too unpalatable?
Wang Dalin dared to bet on his handsome face that he had never eaten such unpalatable chicken in his life or in his previous life!
Cook it directly in water, add some saltis this even called chicken?
Wang Dalin doesn¡¯t know yet that when Wang Zhizhi was interviewed by domestic reporters after landing in the NBA next year, he didn¡¯t even mention the serious discrimination against Chinese people in Dallas. Instead, he complained about this famous ¡°nutritional meal¡±!
Before the start of the new season, the general training session of NBA teams is one training session every day.
The Heat were like this at the beginning, but after a week it was upgraded to two training sessions a day, with physical training in the morning and ball training and team practice games in the afternoon.
As the training camp goes by day by day, everyone¡¯s tacit understanding is getting higher and higher, but every day is exhausting and life-and-death Pat Riley¡¯s ¡°devil training¡± is indeed well-deserved!
In team confrontations, whenever Wang Dalin actively fights on the court, he will always feel the "enthusiastic" pinching of the waist, the back of the elbow or the top of the knee by his teammates.
The Chinese have been paying attention to "courtesy and reciprocity" since ancient times. Every time Wang Dalin returns these actions, the expressions on the faces of his teammates always reveal a bit of pain andenjoyment?
Look to the sky! What kind of beasts are these?
Thinking of elbow strikes as "caresses" Is this the legendary Iron Blood?
Wang Dalin feels that if the pre-season training camp is extended for another month, it is estimated that the Heat will suffer "non-combat attrition"
It can be said that Pat Riley is definitely one of the famous coaches in NBA history. The Lakers he led back then launched the world's best offensive frenzy, which was euphemistically called "show-time"!
During the "show-time" period, the Lakers lived up to expectations and won the NBA championship four times in 1982, 1985, 1987 and 1988.
When everyone was full of praise for Riley's coaching achievements, he also told reporters the secret of his success, which is "devil training."
When the team loses, the team will conduct punitive "devil training"
When the team's next round of regular season is very important, the team will conduct targeted "devil training"
When every game in the playoffs must be fought, the team will naturally engage in "devil training"
I am afraid that only he himself thinks that "devil training" is his magic weapon to win.
In fact, many NBA players are unwilling to play on Riley's team, including "Magic" Johnson, "Cobra" Worthy, "Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, etc They are so tired!
¡°Hmm¡Wang Dalin believes that if Riley were not so persistent in ¡°devil training¡±, the Lakers team he led could at least win one or two more championships!
In the "devil training" day after day, the Heat finally ended the training camp before the new season, and the preseason will begin on October 8.
The Heat¡¯s opponents in this year¡¯s preseason are the Boston Celtics, Washington Wizards, and Charlotte Hornets. The three teams will play a total of 6 games at home and away.
On October 8, the Heat ushered in their first preseason opponent, the Celtics.
The day before the game, Wang Dalin learned from Spoelstra that he had been included in the game roster and would probably get about 10 minutes of playing time. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
