Super Lord of the Rings

On the 25th, the first public training session of the Kings, all players reported and there were no injuries. * w.suimeng.lā

Unlike other teams, the Kings did not find some fringe players to play in the preseason, only examining these 15 players.

This season, the Kings still have a second-round draft pick from the Mavericks, which was resold to the Pacers, and the rookie has no place at all.

Adelman is very serious about building the team, starting from the coaching level in the summer, and recruiting four experienced people as assistants for the team to take charge of the coaching staff.

The four are Terry Porter, Jake Sikma, TR Dunn and Bill Bayano.

Porter had interviewed for the Timberwolves coach in the summer and failed. He did too badly as a coach in the Suns before, and was soon replaced by Alvin Gentry. His on-the-spot response is not good, and he is more suitable as an assistant.

He is a good friend of Adelman, once played for the Trail Blazers together as a point guard, and served as Adelman's assistant coach in the Kings.

Dunn also worked with Adelman and was an old assistant coach of the Kings. Everyone is back, and he also wants to join in the fun.

Sikma spent three seasons with Ashuai in Houston and was fired together.

Bayano and Ashuai are even more old friends. He served as an assistant coach in Portland for the first five years of his coaching career.

Vivek gave Adelman the greatest support, the coaching staff is Adelman has the final say, and let his son also join the team to take office.

Indians are good at this point, they care about their own people especially, and if one person attains the Tao, the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Now that the coaching bench has gathered several think tanks, there will be no tactical problems in the new season.

The public practice sessions are at the Kings' home arena, which is sort of an antique. In 1988, the arena was rebuilt at a cost of 40 million U.S. dollars, and its name was changed to Arco Stadium 2. It is currently the home of the Kings and the Sacramento Monarchs of the nba. As a basketball venue, it can only accommodate 17,317 spectators, which belongs to the small arena in the league.

In the past few years, Kings fans have lost their enthusiasm, and the home attendance rate is not high. This year is different, the fans and spectators can't wait, and the training sessions are full without any publicity.

The reporter interviewed several fans wearing Wang Jun's No. 4 jersey outside the arena. His clothes were out of stock many times, and almost everyone had one. This is also the case in other places.

A middle-aged fan in his forties said: "I never thought there would be such a team,

More interesting than any team in the history of the nBa... two superstars, and so many All-Star veterans. They were very strong at their peak, even when they are old, I still want to watch them. "

A young female fan said: "I love Wang Jun. He is the strongest scorer in the history of the nba. It feels like a dream when he comes to the Kings. Thank you Vivek."

The players received warm applause when they came out on the field, and the stars exchanged ideas, all of whom were acquaintances.

Yi Jianlian came up to speak, a little cautious, these are veterans who have been famous since he was a fan.

If he is alone, the atmosphere will be more awkward, and it will be difficult to get along with his teammates. Wang Junzai is different in everything.

"Brother Lian, come here." Wang Junyong called him over, and then said with a smile in English: "Everyone, let's meet my little brother. His English is not very good, so he doesn't talk much. Usually he calls If it’s not good, everyone, don’t look at my face and scold him. Newcomers must beat him hard, and don’t let him hold him back. I believe that soon you will experience the joy of torturing him like I did.”

"My English is not good, but I can understand what you are saying..." Yi Jianlian had a black line.

Everyone else was happy, McGrady and Yi Jianlian chatted about Yao Ming, who has cooperated with three Chinese players.

With Wang Jun's introduction, the atmosphere immediately became very relaxed, and Yi Jianlian naturally integrated into the circle.

Moreover, no one will rely on the old to bully him in the future. Wang Jun said that this is his brother.

Vivek gave a speech, thanking the fans, welcoming the players, introducing himself and mentioning the new stadium that is being built.

"I promise that the king will win the championship. I promise that in a few years, everyone will enjoy the best basketball game in the best arena. We will build a dynasty!"

The fans applauded enthusiastically. Such an antique arena is obviously not worthy of a king with unlimited potential.

Today, the mayor of Sacramento and former nba star Kevin Johnson also arrived at the scene. He took the microphone and told everyone a good news.

Sacramento will use public resources to carry out the new arena construction plan. On the other hand, the Kings, who eventually managed to stay in the local area, did not need to repay the approximately $75 million in loans owed to the government.

The so-called public resources mean that the relevant departments will help the king settle the "nail households" encountered by the new stadium.

A few days ago, the Kings encountered problems when acquiring a square in the city center for the construction of a new arena. This square was originally a bank foreclosure real estate, but now it is controlled by a New York real estate company. The current tenants in it are mainly the famous retailer Macy's department store. They use this site as a sales department for men's clothing and furniture.

If it was Vivek who went to negotiate, it would have to wait until the price was negotiated.

Now that James and Wang Jun have arrived, the influence of the Kings has soared. Not to mention Macy's, even Barcelona's Messi has to get out.

Under pressure from the city, Macy's quickly pledged to vacate the space and move its menswear and furniture sales elsewhere by next fall at the latest.

Things like exercising land eminent domain rights don't happen often, but Macy's doesn't dare to stop the king from building a new arena, otherwise it will definitely become a public enemy of the city, and it won't even try to sell its stuff.

The players made a simple pass, and after shooting drills, they fought in groups. Adelman led the white vest team, and the first assistant coach Porter led the black vest team.

White team: Bibby, Wang Jun, Peja, James, Yi Jianlian.

Black Team: Curry, Ray Allen, McGrady, Gibson, Miller.

In interviews, the veterans all said that they don't care how much playing time they can get, and they obey the coach's arrangement.

Now, they also want to gear up for a good fight, if they are really marginal people, it will be embarrassing. Especially Allen and McGrady feel that they are not old yet.

Whiteside and Jerebko were preparing on the sidelines. They were young and aggressive, and they also wanted to prove themselves and gain a firm foothold in the King.

"Don't be nervous, remember what I said, be firm when shooting, and be firm when cutting. If you hesitate, the rhythm will be lost." Wang Jun patted Yi Jianlian on the back and said.

"Understood." Yi Jianlian nodded solemnly.

Yi Jianlian won with a jump ball and the game started.

James took the ball to the frontcourt and organized in the middle.

He has always disliked playing power forward, but now he has to admit that Adelman's arrangement makes sense. He organizes forward play in the middle of the 4th position. If the opponent defends and the defender stands in the middle, it is a direct opportunity for misplacement.

Gibson was the main defense, James waited for Wang Jun to cover from the side, then cut and ran, and passed the ball in. Yi Jianlian blocked Ray Allen, Wang Jun caught the ball and passed Miller with one step, and jumped to the basket with amazing speed.

After the nBa changed the rules, Wang Jun practiced pulling the ball and catching the ball at home. You don’t have to be a fool if you steal a step legally.

McGrady didn't let go of Peja's defense in the bottom corner, Wang Jun jumped up with the ball in his right hand, made a backhand dunk of "looking back at the moon", and smashed the ball into the basket, 2-0.

Adelman's eyebrows were frowned when he laughed on the sidelines. He planned to focus on the lineup in the first half of the season. Judging by the tacit cooperation between Wang Jun and James, it seems that the preseason can be completed.
