The Rest, Only Noise

On September 16, the Lakers' Palm Springs training camp officially opened.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the players gathered in the gym.

In addition to the regular players who have signed contracts, there are also 8 free agents who are eager to enter the league.

The opening day is an iconic day. In addition to the coaching staff, Louie is surrounded by the owner Jerry Bass and all the key personnel of the Forum office building.

This morning, they came to the resort with the tragic master.

The tragic man is standing next to Wilson now. From the perspective of size, he is a circle bigger than other forwards. Looking at his physique, it is impossible to play a point guard, and a power forward is quite suitable.

Since they knew each other in the restaurant yesterday, Louie skipped the self-introduction and said frankly: "We are a brand new team, and the coaching staff will review everyone's abilities, except benj. No one is stable. Yes, you need to show me your strength in the training camp that lasts for more than half a month. Next, we will hold a 30-minute intra-team competition, which is also the only event today. After the game, you can rest So I want you to do your best. Remember, first impressions are important, and I don't think you want to give me a bad first impression, do you?"

After Louis finished speaking, he gave Carlisle and Budenholzer a look.

The Lakers' intra-team competition is usually divided into two teams: red and blue.

Carlisle leads the red team and Budenholzer leads the blue team.

"We are the Lakers, why are the training uniforms blue and red?" Ellis wanted to say*, "Shouldn't it be purple and gold?"

Louis explained casually: "Golden jerseys don't look good."

"Purple is beautiful."

"What nonsense, do you want me to make a purple jersey for you on the spot?"

Ellis was silent, and Carlisle and Budenholzer chose players based on fairness.

Wilson didn't like red, so he had to go to the blue team.

With the Blues acquiring the superstar Wilson, the Reds have the right to choose three players first.

Carlisle chose Tragic, Ellis and Garnett.

"Rick, are you going to let our third flower boy play center?" Louis asked with a smile.

The tragic master said, "It's okay. I can play center."

Budenholzer immediately selected Laettner, Ostertag, and Tletter.

Carlisle and Budenholzer found out after the selection that the Lakers were really tough in the new season, and there seemed to be few useful players.

Subsequently, the red team won Derek Harper and Joe Klein, and the blue team could only accept Liu Yuqing and Benoit Benjamin.

Zhao Yuanzheng served as the referee for this game, but he said in advance: "I won't run around with you, so you'd better slow down the pace."

"It's time to lose weight, Coach Zhao." Bird said innuendo, "otherwise someone's today is your tomorrow."

"You motherfucker! ￥#%"

Louie found a problem. Since Bird retired, the two of them have been on the offensive and defensive.

When Louis was coaching Bird, why was he able to break the opponent's defense frequently?

Because Bird was only a player under him at the time. Since he was a player, his state would have ups and downs, and even Bird could not guarantee a good shot on the field. …. .

As long as he doesn't behave well, Louie can talk about him.

But now, he's a coach, so it's hard for Louie to find a reason to attack him.

After the two sides were divided into teams, it was quickly settled.

Red Team: Harper, Ellis, Garnett, Tragic, Klein.

Blue Team: Tlet, Liu Yuqing, Wilson, Laettner, Ostertag.

Finley and Benoit, one was neglected because they were too quiet, and the other was too fat to play against each other at the moment.

"Coach, what am I doing?"

Benoit Benjamin tried to impress Louis with a warm image.

However, there are many things in this world that can deceive people.

Such as people's hearts, such as appearance, such as brush data, such as j*v's cover, such as Xiang Nishino's acting skills, but the fat thing can't deceive people.

Basketball player physique. Just like the teachers of j*v, once there is a change, the audience who used to want to jump into the screen and kneel and lick them will be able to perceive the change.

Benoit's physique is as disappointing as Rin Okae after his comeback.

"Is it okay to run 10 kilometers on a treadmill?"

Louis asked.

Benoit said: "Coach, I have bad legs...I can't run for a long time."

"Would you like to stay in the gym for a while at the head office?"

"Coach, I'm born with magical powers..."

"Then just grab a basketball and shoot on the court next door."

"Ok*, coach."

After that, the **** took a walk by the side holding the basketball, and when everyone's attention turned to the competition, he simply sat down and enjoyed the game from a distance.

At the beginning of the game, the point guards on both sides showed their style.

Harper's strength is surprising.

He's proven himself worthy of the Lakers' mid-level exception to sign him.

Louis looked at his Mavericks career from the perspective of a coach. In 11 years, he averaged 15 points, 6 assists and 1.8 steals per game, and the three shooting percentages were 47%/35%/75%.

He's been on the defense, but never an All-Star.

He's probably one of the ten best players in history who didn't make an All-Star team.

Even in the final years of his career, he still has a very threatening open shot, mature control and defense that hasn't diminished much with age.

He's like a weakened version of older Chris Paul.

The red team's first attack. Finished by Harper, he called the pick-and-roll, attacked the free throw line, and scored a pull-up jumper.

Wilson immediately said to Laettner: "Chris, if they call a pick-and-roll, you should always be ready to switch!"

In Houston, Laettner was the only one who treated his teammates harshly. Now, he has come to a team that even pays attention to defensive positions.

For a split second, Laettner felt like a corner of Notre Dame.

He was reborn.

The Blues' point guard Trait is a somewhat mediocre guard.

He has also been in the league for many years. When he was young, Trait did not have the team status of Harper in the Mavericks. He has always been a tramp and a mercenary. Whoever gives the contract will play for whomever, but the strength is just enough to reach the average level of the league.

The experience of wandering around made him understand a truth, follow the head dog to eat meat.

Benj is clearly the head dog of the Lakers. …. .
