Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

On the afternoon of the 21st, the lights of the Brooklyn Training Center were as hot as the sun, lighting up the entire basketball court.

On the court, Nets players were doing warm-up training. Their figures moved quickly under the lights. Sweat fell from their foreheads and dripped on the floor, making a crisp sound.

Lu Yong stood on the sidelines, his eyes as sharp as a falcon, his hands in his trouser pockets, and an imperceptible smile on his face.

Watching the players train, he was filled with joy.

Each of these players was carefully selected by him and has different technical characteristics, but they all have the same goal - to win the game.

Durant, the core of the team, even in training, his movements are smooth and elegant, and every shot is like a carefully planned work of art.

Porzingis is like a much larger cheetah, coming and going on the court like the wind, making it difficult to believe that he is a seven-foot-tall post player.

"Kevin, you can shoot faster, it's too slow now." Lu Yong stood on the sidelines and commanded.

Durant smiled slightly and did not stop his movements. Instead, he responded to Lu Yong's instructions with faster shots.

He knows that Lu Yong's strict requirements are to enable them to perform at a better level in the game.

With the warm-up over, the training got down to business.

Lu Yong took out several tactical manuals printed in advance and began to explain today's training plan to the players.

His words were full of enthusiasm and vitality, as if every word could ignite the players' fighting spirit.

"What we are going to practice today is double cover and reverse running. This is also one of the tactics we commonly use in games." Lu Yong said while drawing a tactical diagram on the tactical board.

The players listened to the coach's explanation attentively, with longing shining in their eyes.

They know that every tactical detail may be the key to determining the outcome of the game.

In actual combat exercises, the players showed amazing tacit understanding and cooperation.

Durant's shooting, Porzingis' cutting, Mitchell's fast break, Brunson's organization and Cousins' all-around, they each performed their duties and used the tactics to their full potential.

"Okay! That's it! Well done!" Lu Yong praised loudly.

His heart was filled with joy and pride. He knew that these players had gradually mastered the essence of the 'Lu system' tactics.

During the training process, communication between players is also essential.

Nothing makes Lu Yong happier than when everyone can remind each other, encourage each other, and face challenges together on the court.

"Adu, your passing angle needs to be wider so that I can dunk directly during the fast break!" Porzingis said to Durant with a smile.

Durant smiled and responded: "No problem! I will pay attention next time."

Mitchell interjected from the side: "Don't forget, I am the fastest person! Fast breaks are what I am best at!"

Brunson and Cousins ​​smiled and nodded, knowing that Mitchell's speed and passion were an integral part of the team.

In this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, players' training becomes more interesting and efficient.

It not only improves the tacit understanding between each other, but also enhances team cohesion.

Seeing the players sweating on the court, Lu Yong's heart was filled with satisfaction and pride.

These players are his pride. They not only have excellent skills, but also have perseverance and unity and cooperation.

He sits on the sidelines and always pays attention to the players' status and emotional changes, giving them timely encouragement and support.

When the players encounter difficulties, Lu Yong will use rigorous tactical analysis and passionate words to inspire their fighting spirit; when the players make progress, he will not hesitate to give them praise and recognition.

Lu Yong knows that a good coach must not only know how to train players, but also how to inspire players' potential and confidence.

Under his leadership, the Nets have already undergone radical changes.

As the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the glass of the arena, the training is finally over.

The players walked off the court sweaty, with smiles of satisfaction and pride on their faces.

Everyone knows that today's training has made them more familiar with and mastered the skills and essence of cover tactics, and has also made them fully prepared for the playoffs.

Lu Yong stood on the sidelines and watched the players leave, feeling full of confidence.

These guys already have strong strength and potential. As long as they can perform to their best level in the game, they will definitely achieve excellent results in the playoffs.

He looks forward to the team creating more brilliant records under his leadership in the future. Defending the title is only the first step he must take now, but it is by no means the last step.

The next morning, Lu Yong announced that the team would have a day off, allowing the players to rest at home and prepare for the second game against the Magic.

And just when the outside media was still focusing on the playoffs, Lu Yong took the time to run out and secretly date a beautiful woman.

As the owner and coach of the Nets, he is extremely busy every day.

But after all, I am still in my 40s, and I always need to enrich my private life.

This morning, he put down what he was doing and drove to a high-end restaurant.

Had lunch with Hannah Murray, a British actress whom I just met.

Hannah Murray was born in 1989 and is 31 years old. She has never been involved in relationship scandals and is also an NBA fan.

Murray began his acting career with the role of Cassie in the British youth drama "Skins", which aired in 2007, and became famous with this role.

Later, she also participated in "Chat Room" and joined the second season of "A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones", playing the role of Gilly.

She is not very popular among many European and American celebrities, but she looks very beautiful and her family conditions are also very good.

The two were introduced to each other through Nets general manager Marks. Although Lu Yong is more than ten years older than him, Hannah Murray still has a good impression of him because of his love of basketball.

It just so happened that Murray was recently invited by an American director to film in New York, which was not far away, so Lu Yong naturally found an excuse to make a date.

In the restaurant, the lights are soft and the music is melodious.

Lu Yong was dressed in a casual suit, looking both easy-going and elegant.

Hannah, on the other hand, wore a tight black dress and her long hair shawl, looking like an elegant goddess.

"Hi, Lu, here, I really didn't expect you to take the initiative to ask me out." Hannah said with a smile, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Of course, a beautiful lady always needs a gentleman to take the initiative to invite her." Lu Yong responded with a smile. He is quite a gentleman with his dog-like attitude.

After the two sat down, the waiter immediately brought them menus. Lu Yong ordered a few signature dishes, and then handed the menu to Hannah.

"You're welcome, just do whatever you want." Lu Yong said generously.

Hannah smiled and began to choose her favorite dishes.

Lu Yong took the opportunity to observe the female star.

He discovered that although Hannah was always dazzling in front of the camera, she was very easy-going in private and had no celebrity airs at all.

This guy Max finally did something!

If you don’t get a promotion and a salary increase, who will?

"Lou, I heard that you acquired some shares of the Nets last year?" Hannah asked curiously.

"Yes, but everyone is still more accustomed to calling me Coach Lu." Lu Yong replied.

"That must be very busy, right?" Hannah asked curiously.

"It is indeed very busy, but also very fulfilling. I like the feeling of working hard with the players and pursuing victory." Lu Yong said, with a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.

After hearing this, Hannah couldn't help but have more respect for Lu Yong.

She feels that a person who can maintain enthusiasm and focus in such a high-pressure environment must have extraordinary perseverance and talent.

The two of them chatted and ate.

After a while, the dishes were served one after another, and the aroma was overflowing.

Lu Yong and Hannah toasted to celebrate and enjoyed this wonderful lunch.

"Coach Lu, I toast you. I wish your team will achieve better results in the next playoffs!" Hannah said with a smile. "Thank you, I hope so too." Lu Yong responded, then drank it all in one gulp.

During the meal, the two discussed various topics such as movies, music, and travel, as if they were in love with each other.

Of course, only Lu Yong knows that he doesn’t like movies, music, or travel.

The purpose of finding a topic at this time is nothing more than to improve Hannah's favor and then find opportunities to develop further.

Thanks to him being a time traveler, even if he has never set foot in the entertainment industry in this life, he is still familiar with these things.

Otherwise it’s really hard to lie.

However, just when the atmosphere was at its most harmonious, a paparazzi reporter wearing sunglasses broke in and rushed directly to Hannah.

"Miss Hannah, can you take some photos with us? Fans are very much looking forward to seeing how you are doing!" the reporter said excitedly.

Both Hannah and Lu Yong were startled by the sudden paparazzi.

Hannah didn't notice this group of people and was frightened by the sudden movement.

Lu Yong, on the other hand, still has a few sisters who have not completely cut off their ties. If this is photographed and spread, the fish in the fish pond will not explode?

Thinking of this, Lu Yong quickly stood up and stood in front of Hannah, pretending to be angry.

"Sorry, it's not convenient for her to be interviewed now." Lu Yong turned his head and signaled to the bodyguard at the table next to him that it was time to go to work, and coldly and firmly rejected the reporter.

The reporter seemed unwilling to accept it and continued to pester Lu Yong and Hannah.

Until the restaurant manager came over, apologized to the distinguished guest Lu Yong, and asked the staff to politely ask the reporter to leave.

He also said that the restaurant has a private dining area, which can provide them with a quieter environment.

After the reporter left, the restaurant returned to quiet.

Lu Yong and Hannah smiled at each other and continued to enjoy their lunch.

"Thank you, Lou," Hannah said gratefully. "That's so sweet of you."

"It doesn't matter. It's what I should do to drive away flies for a beauty like you." Lu Yong smiled without blushing.

The two were immersed in a pleasant chat again, as if the episode just now was just a dream.

They continued to share stories and thoughts with each other, often bursting into cheerful laughter.

After lunch, Lu Yong and Hannah walked out of the restaurant together.

The street lights flickered and the breeze blew.

Lu Yong suddenly suggested: "Hannah, would you like to visit my basketball gym? Maybe you will be interested there."

Hannah's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she nodded in agreement.

So, the two drove to the Brooklyn Arena.

This is not to lure the wolf into the house, but to express to Hannah in a subtle way that he is willing to take you to my territory. No matter how old the woman is, this is the trick.

Don't be afraid to meet acquaintances on the road. He is a small boss anyway, no one would dare to spread rumors about him even if he changes girls every day.

Although Lu Yong announced a holiday today, after arriving at the arena, there were still some players sweating profusely on the court.

Seeing Lu Yong come in, the players stepped forward to say hello.

Lu Yong responded one by one, and then introduced the team's situation to Hannah.

Hannah listened with great interest, and occasionally let out a sound of admiration.

She feels that this basketball stadium is like a small world, full of passion and vitality.

And Lu Yong is the helmsman of this world, leading the team towards victory.

After staying in the basketball gym for a while, Lu Yong and Hannah left together.

On the street, their figures drifted away, leaving behind a beautiful memory.

"Lou, thank you for your warm hospitality today." Hannah said with a smile.

"You're welcome, I had a lot of fun today too." Lu Yong responded with a smile.

Hannah stood outside the arena and hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and summoned up the courage to make an appointment with Lu Yong: "It's still early, why don't we go to a nearby amusement park?"

Lu Yong shrugged: "I have no objection, let's go and get in the car."

The sun shines on the Ferris wheel of a large amusement park in New York, coating it with a golden glow.

Don't ask why you came to New York, ask: it's close, just drive across the bridge, it's very convenient.

With a relaxed heart, Lu Yong and Hannah Murray stepped into this place full of joy and laughter.

At the gate of the amusement park, the handsome Lu Yong and the tall Anna walked into the amusement park side by side, immediately attracting the attention of the surrounding tourists.

"Wow, look at that man, he seems to be the head coach of the Nets!" A tourist pointed at Lu Yong and exclaimed.

"And the girl next to him seems to be a star!" another tourist added.

Lu Yong and Hannah looked at each other and smiled, as if they were already used to this kind of attention.

They arrived at the queuing area of ​​the Ferris wheel, ready to start their appointment this afternoon.

"Lou, you know? When I was a kid, I loved coming to the amusement park the most, especially riding the Ferris wheel." Hannah said excitedly while lining up.

"Oh? Why do you like Ferris wheels so much?" Lu Yong asked curiously.

"Because I feel like I can see the whole world on the Ferris wheel, and it's like standing on the shoulders of giants." Hannah explained with a smile.

Lu Yong couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Then you have to enjoy yourself today, because you, the little princess on the shoulders of a giant, can see me, a giant, today."

Hannah burst out laughing after hearing this. She punched Lu Yong lightly: "You are such a narcissist!"

Finally it was their turn to ride the Ferris wheel.

The two sat in a transparent glass cabin. As the Ferris wheel slowly rose, they had a panoramic view of the entire amusement park.

The sun shone on them through the glass, giving them a golden glow.

"Do you know? The first time I rode the Ferris wheel, I didn't even dare to move when I reached the commanding heights." Lu Yong suddenly said.

"Ah? Really?" Hannah looked at Lu Yong in surprise.

"Well, I was a little afraid of heights at that time. I felt that the Ferris wheel rose too high, as if I would be thrown out." Lu Yong recalled with a smile.

"Then why do you still dare to sit down now?" Hannah asked curiously.

"Because I feel at ease now that you are by my side." Lu Yong used the same old-fashioned love words to deceive him like crazy.

He had said this version of the conversation to at least 20 girls, but if he couldn't stand women, he would just do this, as long as it worked.

Sometimes dating is like assembly line writing. Even though the routine is old, some people like it.

As long as you perform well enough, there will definitely be no shortage of people around you to support you.

Hannah blushed after hearing this, looked up at Lu Yong's serious eyes, and suddenly felt as if she was in a fairy tale world.

"Lou, do you often say these things to girls?" Hannah tilted her head and asked with an expression of disbelief.

"Of course not, you are the first!" Lu Yong said with firm eyes.

There is no ex in the United States, and I won’t admit it if I have one!

Men, even God doesn’t bother to listen to the oaths they swear, and that’s it for just speaking hard!

After hearing this, Hannah still had an expression of disbelief, but she couldn't stand how handsome Lu Yong was!

Sometimes women are like this. They believe men's lies not because they have low IQ, but because they are willing to self-hypnotize.
