Now the entire NBA is preparing to watch the Lakers joke.
In the preseason, they lost eight games in a row, allowing their opponents to score at least more than 100 points in each game. However, on the offensive side, they did not score more than 100 points in any of the eight games.
Although preseason has never been a game worth writing about in the NBA, and the NBA's preseason record is indeed not important, the state of the players in the preseason is very important.
In the past eight games of the Lakers, not only have they failed to win the game, but the state of the players in the game has also made people very worried.
Because Kobe, Maizi and Yao Ming are currently recovering from injuries.
The Lakers' current lineup is 12 players.
Four second-year youngsters, Antetokounmpo, Covington, McAway and Kanan.
Three first-year young men, Jokic, Dinwiddie and Kyle Anderson.
Four super veterans, Barkley, Garnett, Pierce and Wade.
There is also the only star player in his prime, Ebanks.
As for the Lakers' lineup, the preseason has not actually started, so Lakers fans are very worried.
After Aunt Jenny took them through the preseason, Lakers fans are now worried. There is no miracle, no miracle at all. This Lakers is really the worst team in NBA history.
Even Lakers fans themselves recognize that their team is the worst team in NBA history.
Because these players on this team really don’t even understand the preseason!
In all eight preseason games, the Lakers' player with the highest scoring average per game was Pierce, who averaged 13 points per game.
The only players on the entire team averaging double figures per game are Ebanks, Pierce, McAway and Antetokounmpo.
None of the other players even scored in double figures, let alone scored in double figures, assisted or rebounded in double figures.
What does each data look like?
Most of them average 6 or 7 points per game, 3 assists, 4 assists, 6 rebounds or 7 rebounds per game.
According to Lakers legend O'Neal, that's it.
"Now that I'm back in place, my numbers in the preseason will be better than theirs!"
"This Lakers team does not have a tactical core. Everyone is now a green leaf. I can't see any competitiveness in such a team. Maybe Coach D's goal this season is to rebuild, which is to pick the No. 1 pick. Now Lakers fans We can look forward to the draft lottery next May!”
"Charles Barkley's comeback with the Lakers this time is definitely the worst decision of his career."
"Of course, I think you might say that the coach in the preseason is not Coach D but Jeannie Buss, but man, the current staff of the Lakers are some of these staff. Even if Coach D is the god of coaching, he is not the real god. It is impossible to advance to the playoffs in the Western Conference with such a group of players, and it is even impossible to advance to the playoffs in the Eastern Conference with this Lakers team!"
The Lakers' performance in the preseason was indeed terrible.
So now this Lakers team is being watched by the whole world.
The more people watch, the more these people discover that the Lakers are really a picky team. No, even worse than a picky team.
However, compared with other onlookers who have already sentenced the Lakers to death, as the parties involved, the emotions of the Lakers players are still relatively stable.
The main reason is that Coach D himself is very emotionally stable.
The square outside Staples was already surrounded by people.
The heavy rain did not affect the enthusiasm of the Los Angeles fans at all.
At this time, the three people surrounded in the center were former Celtics teammates, Rondo, Garnett and Pierce.
At this time, the three of them were dancing in the heavy rain...? Or a fight?
In short, no matter what, the surrounding Los Angeles fans were shouting passionately.
Next to the three of them was Auntie Jeanie Buss, the Lakers' chief assistant coach.
At this time Aunt Jenny Buss was shouting in the rain, stopping them.
"Stop! Stop it!"
"Stop fighting!"
"Stop fighting!"
"Stop! Stop fighting!"
Almost at the same time, Rondo aimed a straight uppercut at Pierce. Pierce, who was dancing with Garnett, never thought that Rondo would come like this. In order to avoid Rondo's straight uppercut, Pierce quickly retreated. He took two steps and almost fell.
Finally, Pierce was held steady by Aunt Jenny next to him.
How could Pierce bear being attacked by such a sneak attack? He immediately raised his fists and prepared to go straight to Rondo.
However, he was stopped by Aunt Jenny who was supporting him.
"Paul!"
"I'm playing ball with you, don't hit me anymore!"
In the rain, Aunt Jenny, who was holding Pierce, was about to cry.
So brave!
At this time, some Los Angeles spectators who were watching nearby didn't know whether their cheeks were wet from the rain or they were really crying. Anyway, they were very moved.
And right now.
Another voice came out.
"Kah! OK, great job, Paul, Rajon, KG, Jenny, you guys did great!"
Well, this voice is not Du Kang, but actually Clippers head coach Doc Rivers.
After Doc Reeves spoke out, the Los Angeles audience burst into loud applause and cheers.
"The performance by Teacher Zhang, Pierce, Garnett, Rondo and Aunt Jenny was so wonderful!!"
Seeing the squid girl next to her who was so excited at this moment, Teacher Zhang felt a little embarrassed.
It is difficult for him to appreciate this aesthetic.
After all, I am older.
But the little girls at the scene seemed to be very happy watching it.
In fact, not only the female audience members were happy to watch it, but the male audience members were also enjoying it.
As the heroine of this play, Aunt Jenny was even more excited and trembling.
Pierce and Garnett took turns being supported by her, taking turns playing the male lead.
This made Aunt Jenny feel like she was running a harem.
If you want to talk about how to play, it’s Coach D who knows how to play. He knows her taste very well.
"The Los Angeles Lakers have often staged this kind of street performances in the past two seasons, but before that they were all pure street performances. Carter's Harlem Basketball, Iverson's skateboard show, Kobe's street dance show, these were just pure individual performances. , I didn’t expect that this time, Coach D would actually come up with a plot!”
"The dramatic hip-hop performance by Pierce, Garnett and Rondo was so exciting!"
After the hip-hop performance, everyone in the surrounding audience was very happy and began to discuss the plot. As the three male protagonists, Rondo, Pierce and Garnett looked awkward on their faces.
They are super tough guys!
Coach D actually let them do such a thing in front of so many people. Who the hell can stand this?
If it weren't for Coach D, the three of them would have beaten up this idiot Doug!
In fact, before they came to the Lakers, they knew that Coach D and the Lakers' training methods were very strange.
Many fans say that you never even see basketball being practiced at the Lakers’ training ground!
The practice methods at the Lakers training ground can really be described as varied.
They actually had expectations.
However, they never dreamed that the training method coach D designed for them this time was so strange.
After this performance, soon, YouTube and Twitter were filled with videos of the street dance drama in which the three Celtics stars and Aunt Jenny were entangled in love and hate.
All I can say is that this training session designed by Coach D for the Lakers is so strange, so interesting, and so magical!
Even Ray Allen was laughing so hard in front of the computer.
"Lei, what are you so happy about?"
"Hahahaha, it's nothing. Coach D is really a god-like coach, hahahaha..."
Seeing the computer video of Garnett and Pierce looking as uncomfortable as eating flies after the performance, Ray Allen was really happy to death!
Outside Staples, after Garnett and Pierce finished their performances, Barkley ran over and patted them on the shoulders.
"Hahahaha, Kevin, Paul, if you get used to Coach D's training method, you will find that you will fall in love with this training method."
"Before, Kobe, Iverson, Carter, and Tracy McGrady, they were like this at the beginning, but slowly they became immersed in it."
After Barkley finished speaking, he didn't forget to add one more thing.
"That overwhelming sense of shame is the source of progress. These words are not my words, these words are said by Kobe."
After Buckley finished speaking, he left with an umbrella.
Pierce and Garnett were left looking at each other.
The two of them are indeed a little confused now.
They've never faced anything like this in the NBA.
The current situation of the Lakers is so bad. Coach D doesn't want to think about how to change the team's current situation and brings us here to play awkwardly. What does it mean?
Can those of us who play awkwardly really improve the team's strength?
Also, why did Kobe and the others fall in love with such a weird training method?
don't know.
Garnett and Pierce said they really don’t understand!
After the preseason, there is still a week left before the NBA regular season opener on October 28. Of course, Du Kang must seize the opportunity to improve the team's strength.
Such a good opportunity is rare.
Although the training camp started before, we had to compete all the time, so we didn’t have that much time to stay in one place.
Du Kang has six strengthening training camps on his body.
This time, Du Kang feels that he must at least let all Lakers players complete two enhanced training camps!
The current Lakers players, the strongest ones are Ebanks, McAway and Antetokounmpo.
Ebanks' ability value is 91, while McAway's ability value is 88, and Antetokounmpo's ability value is also 88.
This ability, to be honest, is quite Dior's.
With proper All-Star ability, Ebanks' ability has even reached superstar level.
But the problems of the three people are also very obvious.
That means no skills.
Because the time they have played in the NBA is still too short, and the three of them have never obtained unlimited fire, the offensive skills of the three are very poor.
Without technical support, their abilities sometimes appear to be high-scoring, low-energy and unstable, making it difficult to become the core players of a championship-level team.
Therefore, the core players of the Lakers designed by Du Kang this season are Wade, Paul Pierce, Garnett and Barkley.
Needless to say, Wade, Pierce and Garnett, the current skills of the three are definitely the best in their careers.
As long as the three are restored, the Lakers will have three star players in an instant.
As for Barkley, Du Kang has not used the Dream Back to Peak card on him yet.
The Dream Back to Peak Card is best used when Barkley can adjust his physical condition to its best.
The peak strength obtained in this way is definitely the strongest.
These four people are the core players of the Lakers next season.
Ebanks, McAway and Antetokounmpo continue to grow around the four of them.
Well, in addition to the opportunity to strengthen the training camp, Du Kang now also has 3 purple attribute potential cards and a purple glory point.
Three purple attribute potential cards and purple glory points can create a superstar.
With four veterans as the core, there is no problem playing in the regular season. In the playoffs, the team still needs a young superstar.
Yao Ming last season was such a role.
The veteran's physical strength is an issue.
And if Wade recovers well, it will be enough.
But isn't Wade's situation very special? Although Du Kang is confident that he can handle Wade, he must be prepared for any eventuality.
Cultivating a young superstar is not the most urgent thing right now.
The most urgent thing for the Lakers now is actually to restore the strength of the four veterans to a certain level.
There is no need to worry about Wade and Barkley's recovery.
Just get the equipment.
But with Garnett and Pierce, this isn't that easy.
The two of them can actually use the Dream Return to Peak card now.
But using the Dream Back to Peak Card for two people is actually not cost-effective.
Du Kang hopes to improve from the physical strength of the two people.
Du Kang consumed 1500 MP to increase Pierce's physical strength to 85.
Du Kang spent another 2000 MP to increase Garnett's physical strength to 85.
Then use the strengthening training camp to strengthen the physical strength of both men.
However, the way the two strengthened the training camp is indeed somewhat special.
It requires Rondo's cooperation, a rainy day, and a weird script.
"Ding, your player Kevin Garnett has completed the training plan of the enhanced training camp. His physical strength is +3, his physical strength has been adjusted to 88, and his ability has been adjusted to 90. Ding, there are risks to Kevin Garnett's physical durability. If he continues to improve his physical strength It will greatly increase his probability of injury, please check carefully."
"Ding, your player Paul Pierce has completed the training plan of the enhanced training camp. His physical strength is +3, his physical strength has been adjusted to 88, and his ability has been adjusted to 88. Please check it."
After Garnett's physical strength returned to 88, a reminder of the risk of injury appeared.
But Pierce didn't show up for this reminder.
This shows that Pierce's physical strength can continue to increase.
Pierce has just celebrated his 37th birthday, which is actually still young.
And Pierce's physical durability is indeed very sufficient. After all, he is a player who made 13 dollars in 35 seconds, which can be regarded as extremely talented.
Pierce was able to average 28 minutes per game with the Nets last season, and his field goal percentage and three-point shooting percentage did not decline. Compared with his peak, only the playing time and number of shots dropped, and his average points per game also dropped by the same proportion. half.
This is caused by lack of physical strength. Pure strength is actually not much different from the peak.
Therefore, Pierce's potential for improvement is greater than Garnett's.
It is difficult for a player like Garnett, whose durability has declined a lot due to injuries, to return to his 100% peak.
But Pierce, he can.
If you have enough durability, you can support enough attributes, and if you have enough durability, you can support enough capabilities.
After this wave of reinforcements, Du Kang is very satisfied with the conditions of Garnett and Pierce.
Well, even if Garnett can't return to 100% of his peak, his ability to return to 90% is good enough.
Therefore, Du Kang really needs to thank Rivers.
"Doug, thank you for this training. It's you who allowed me to implement the training plan I made. It's you who made me feel the progress of KG and Paul."
"Hahahaha, Coach D, please don't say that. It's me who really want to say thank you. I also feel Rajan's progress, hahahaha..."
Doc Greaves was in a very good mood.
Coach D is his idol.
He has been imitating Coach D's training methods with the Clippers since last year. After a season of hard training, he can clearly feel that the Clippers players have become stronger.
Well, what did Kobe Bryant say?
When you lose your sense of shame, it is your motivation to move forward.
Look at the expression on Rajan's face now, and look at the murderous look in his eyes towards Coach D. Isn't this the motivation to move forward?
Douglas Reeves feels that he has found the essence of Coach D's training method.
For an intensive training camp session, if the score is 85 or below, it will be +3 points, if it is 85-89, it will be +2 points, and if it exceeds 90, it will be +1 point.
In fact, it is difficult for most players to feel the results of an intensive training camp.
Except for veterans like Garnett and Pierce.
In the past two days, the physical strength of the two of them has improved tremendously.
This huge improvement is no longer just one or two points.
On the second day of that rainy training day.
Lakers training facility.
Pierce and Garnett arrived at the training facility early.
This shocked young Lakers players like Jokic, Dinwiddie, and Kyle Anderson.
"Aren't KG and Paul ready to mess up this season?"
"So, what's going on?"
This is really shocking.
You know, although Garnett and Pierce have no plans to leave the Lakers this season.
Prepare to retire after this season.
It can be regarded as giving Coach D respect for them.
However, just because they have no plans to leave the Lakers doesn't mean they can play with peace of mind in the Lakers.
Both have plans to develop into the media.
Well, you can refer to how O'Neal is about to retire, and what the two of them are like.
Both are preparing to work part-time for TNT.
If they hadn't been rejected by Coach D, both of them might have been working part-time in TNT.
After Coach D rejected their request for part-time TNT, he prepared a shameful training method for the two of them.
Many people said that Coach D was deliberately trying to mess with these two people.
Even fans online think so.
I heard that their rival Ray Allen was laughing like crazy.
Well, it’s not what I heard, Ray Allen directly posted the video of himself laughing crazy.
Any fool can tell that Ray Allen is mocking, or who he is mocking.
Therefore, early this morning, the news across the United States was about the internal strife of the Lakers.
"Coach D is dissatisfied with KG and Pierce, and the already collapsed Lakers are even worse!"
"Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce contradicted Coach D at the Lakers training ground, and the Los Angeles Lakers feared their season would collapse!"
“The first season in Coach D’s career where he cannot lead the team to the playoffs is about to happen?!”
In short, many people in the Lakers team are actually ready to draw a clear line with Garnett and Pierce.
Then, what happened to this sudden situation?
"Nicholas, you are smart, tell me, what is going on?"
Jokic said that he really didn’t understand!
But is it possible?
That is……
“Will Coach D’s training methods be really effective?”
Um? !
Dinwiddie and Kyle Anderson were stunned.
In fact, only rookies like them would have such questions.
No other Lakers player questioned Coach D.
"Paul, do you think the coach will come to the team training facility today?"
"I don't know, but..."
Pierce is still very shocked.
After waking up this morning, he felt that the whole world had become brand new.
Not even the whole world.
His whole body seemed to have become brand new.
This strange change.
There is only one explanation.
That is, Coach D's training for them is really effective!
Not to mention returning to their peak, their strength has indeed recovered!
After the two felt the changes in their bodies, they confirmed each other immediately.
Then everyone felt the magic of Coach D.
I want to come to the training hall early to thank Coach D in person.
But Coach D is very busy now, not only busy designing those magical training methods for them.
At the same time, he is also doing physical therapy for Wade, hoping to regain Wade's lost explosive power.
Therefore, the team's daily training is actually handed over to the team's four assistant coaches.
Today, Coach D still hasn’t come to the training hall.
However, although Coach D did not come to the training hall, he brought new training methods to everyone.
This time, Pierce and Garnett no longer dislike each other.
This time Pierce and Garnett can simply be described as impatient. They can't wait to see what their training content is.
"Coach D actually wants to improve my mid-range shooting?!"
Garnett was shocked.
Garnett feels that his iron-blooded mid-range shot is still very powerful.
As an insider, he is already good enough, and there is no room for improvement. Garnett feels that he has fully developed his mid-range shooting potential.
This is completely different from physical training.
Physical training is just recovery, not something out of thin air.
And this mid-range shooting training definitely belongs to the category of making something out of nothing, which is even more magical!
"Paul, what is your training?"
"It's still physical strength!"
Pierce was excited.
He knows very well what kind of playing style he has. He is an offensive kaleidoscope and a defensive kaleidoscope. His kaleidoscope actually requires extremely strong physical support.
The stronger his physical strength, the stronger he is!
"Coach D understands me!"
After completing a training plan, coach D came up with another training plan.
This made all the veteran players of the Lakers very excited.
The old Lakers players are so excited, and so are Pierce and Garnett.
The three rookies Jokic, Dinwiddie and Kyle Anderson were naturally affected.
At the very least, they are now willing to believe that Coach D's training plan should indeed be useful.
"Nicholas, what's your training plan?"
"Combo guard."
"Spencer, where's yours?"
"A combo guard, too."
Jokic and Dinwiddie’s answers left Kyle Anderson a little embarrassed.
Seeing Kyle Anderson like this, Jokic and Dinwiddie were a little curious.
Then both of them thought of something.
"Kyle, you're not going to follow Ebanks to catch the thief, are you?!"
Among the training plans formulated by Coach D, which one is the weirdest?
That must have caught the thief.
This training plan is even weirder than the dance battle between Pierce and Garnet Rondo.
Well, that training plan for Dou Wu was just embarrassing in the extreme.
In fact, it can still be related to basketball.
But when it comes to catching a thief, people don’t know what to say.
Thief catching training is just another name, the real scientific name is 'potential development training'.
Potential development, is this about developing other alternative potentials in players?
Well, is it necessary?
They will not become police officers after they retire.
Just as the three rookies were looking at each other, Ebanks had already come over to arrest him.
In the end, Kyle Anderson could only leave with Ebanks and McAway.
For a time, the Lakers training hall was empty again.
Looking at the empty Lakers training hall at this time, Aunt Jenny was in a trance.
In the past two seasons, she had received countless information from undercover agents about strange things happening in the Lakers training facility.
In fact, he should not be unfamiliar with the conditions of the Lakers' training facility.
But seeing this situation now is still shocking.
Coach D is really all about playing!
"Jenny, Coach D is actually not nervous at all!"
The Lakers' opponent in the opening game is the Timberwolves.
This is a meaningful but weak opponent that the league specially found for the Lakers. It just wants to establish prestige for Coach D and the Lakers.
However, the league itself did not expect that Yao Ming would be injured in the World Cup.
Originally, the Timberwolves were a gift package to the Lakers.
And now, it seems that the Lakers have finally become a gift package for the Timberwolves.
This really makes people don’t know what to say.
If the Timberwolves really screwed up the opening game of this season, then the Lakers would be so embarrassed this season.
And it's likely to be embarrassing all the way to the end.
"Jenny, are you going to resign now? We don't need to bury Coach D and Jim with them at all!"
Being the first assistant coach for Coach D has really gained me a lot.
But there may be more to lose.
Now the national media is still slandering Jenny, comparing the strength and deservingness of the Spurs' female assistant coach with Jenny.
This is a typical disaster that affects pond fish.
If Jenny had not come here to work as an assistant coach for Coach D, such a loss would never have happened.
Now that the Lakers are about to collapse, why stay here?
Even if they don't hold the Lakers back, the Lakers are already finished this season.
The assistant felt that his suggestion to Jenny was very reasonable. Even if Jenny didn't accept it, she wouldn't be angry.
But this time, Jenny was angry.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"..."
"Or do you think I'm a quitter?"
Aunt Jenny looked at the frightened assistant and did not continue to speak. Instead, she sat on the floor on the side of the training ground with the 'UCLA Tactics Encyclopedia' in her hand and started to read it seriously.
Seeing Aunt Jenny looking so serious, the assistant was really shocked.
"Jenny, this is serious!"
"Jenny really wants to get back her place from that Spurs female assistant coach!"
Farke!
Now that Jenny has become addicted to the vastness of the UCLA system and cannot extricate herself, what should we, Jenny’s younger brothers, do?
A person as smart as Jenny should lead us in conspiracy. Studying basketball tactics has no future at all, okay? ! !
The assistant wanted to dissuade her, but in the end, looking at the serious look on Jenny Buss's face at this time, sometimes frowning, sometimes surprised, and sometimes enlightened, he gave up in the end.
He hadn't seen Jenny studying something so seriously for a long, long time.
"Ding, your assistant coach Jenny Buss suddenly had an epiphany. Jenny Bass's offensive attribute has been adjusted to E. Please check it."
Well, Aunt Jenny had another epiphany.
He is exactly the same as he was back then.
This is potential A+, the strongest level of potential.
Of course, this is also because Aunt Jenny works hard enough.
With such hard work and high potential, Aunt Jenny’s coaching career is already smooth.
Du Kang felt that he had found the most suitable road for Aunt Jenny.
What's the point of a smart woman like you, instead of going to a bigger pool to fight those dragons, instead of hanging on a little shrimp named Jim Shu in a small lake like the Lakers?
Du Kang was thinking about Aunt Jenny while applying acupuncture to Wade who was lying there.
With every acupuncture applied by Du Kang, Wade would roar loudly.
If Nash hadn't helped Du Kang hold down Wade's legs, Wade would have jumped up and ran away.
Even if Nash didn't run away, the look on Wade's face was filled with pain and anger.
Coach D must be seeking revenge!
Wade is well aware of the condition of his knee.
Rejuvenate your own knees?
It is absolutely impossible for him to believe it!
It was in vain that he thought Coach D came to him because he really respected him and respected him, but he didn't expect that he came here just to torture him!
Wade felt that even if Coach D said that he could rehabilitate his knee in a short time like this year's All-Star Weekend, he would believe it, but Coach D just said that he would completely resurrect his knee.
There is no way he could believe this!
but……
Wade was still gritting his teeth.
Although he didn't believe it, every time Coach D gave him physical therapy, he showed up.
He knows that the Lakers no longer need him to be an undercover agent.
But what if?
What if LeBron wants him to stab Coach D in the back?
Maybe after being tortured by Coach D like this, he could raise the butcher knife to Coach D without any guilt and penetrate deep into Coach D's back!
"Ding, your player Dwyane Wade's favorability towards you has dropped by 1 and is adjusted to 85. Please check it."
"Ding, your player Dwyane Wade's favorability towards you has dropped by 1 and is adjusted to 84. Please check it."
"Ding, your player Dwyane Wade's favorability towards you has dropped by 1 and is adjusted to 83. Please check it."
…
Wade's favorability rating, which peaked at 92, has been declining these days.
The critical point of breaking 90.
It has now broken through the critical point of 85.
The next step is to break 80.
In response, Du Kang smiled slightly.
Anyway, the steel knees are already installed.
Therefore, how sharp the decline is now will be how rapid the rise will be in the future.
"Here comes the needle!"
Du Kang smiled and inserted the silver needle in his hand into Wade's tail vertebra!
Ah~~~~~~~! ! ! ! !
For a moment, the whole of Los Angeles seemed to be awakened!
When Nash heard Wade's shout, he was so frightened that he almost dropped the silver needle box in his hand.
"Ding, your player Dwyane Wade's favorability towards you has dropped by 1 and is adjusted to 79. Please check it."
Ah.
After Du Kang finished administering the acupuncture, he looked at Wade, who was lying there like a dead dog, and let out a soft sigh in his heart.
"Dwyane, the days ahead will be sweet."
After Du Kang said with a smile, Wade felt like he was cupping!
Then!
It’s really getting sweeter!
For the next two days, Wade felt like he was going crazy.
And on the other side.
The other players on the Lakers were completing the tasks set by Du Kang in full swing.
"Ding, your player Paul Pierce has completed the 'adjustment' of the training plan. Ding, your player Pierce's physical strength, reaction time, and fighting ability are all less than 90. You have adjusted the training plan, and the attributes only increase physical strength. Ding, your player Pierce's physical attribute has been increased by 2 points, now it is 88, his physical strength has been adjusted to 90, and his ability has been adjusted to 89, please pay attention to check."
Pierce's physical strength can continue to improve!
This is very interesting!
"Ding, your player Antetokounmpo has completed the training program 'Big Man Offense', with post control, close range shooting, cutting layups, post hooks, post fade jumpers, all attributes +1."
"Ding, your player Ebanks has completed the training program 'Big Body Defense', assisting in defense IQ, blocking shots, inside defense, interfering with shots, defensive stability, and all attributes are +1."
"Ding, your player McAway has completed the training plan 'athletic ability', jumping, speed, acceleration, dribbling speed, lateral agility, all attributes +1 for in-situ dunk. Ding, your player McAway's ability value has been adjusted. It’s 89, please check carefully.”
McAway's double speed now exceeds 95, and this attribute is already very explosive.
In addition to being inferior to Jordan in terms of finishing ability and skills, McAway is now very much like Michael.
"Ding, your player Kyle Anderson has completed the training plan 'Hidden Potential'. Your player Kyle Anderson's potential is lower than 85. The potential has been increased by 3 points and adjusted to 87. Please check it."
Du Kang used the hidden potential twice in a row on Kyle Anderson.
This is the result of Du Kang's repeated thinking.
Kyle Anderson's attributes really make Du Kang like it.
The mental attributes and technical attributes are full, the peak age comes late, and the peak time is long, but the potential is very low, and the athletic talent is very low.
As long as Kyle Anderson continues to increase his potential, he can reach it by himself without giving him a dream card!
Potential is actually not valuable, what is valuable is the dream card.
When you have a player who can reach his full potential on his own, it's hard not to add some potential to him.
The hidden potential is indeed very suitable for Kyle Anderson.
Among these constant prompts, Du Kang is of course paying most attention to Jokic.
Jokic has grown very rapidly in the past six months.
In less than four months from the end of the draft to the start of training camp, Jokic's ability has improved from 78 to 81.
Sure enough, they are Olajuwon and Duncan-type players. Duncan was able to defeat Mourning within one year of his official exposure to basketball.
And Jokic has only been formally exposed to professional basketball training for 2 years now.
"Ding, your player Jokic has completed the training program 'Combo Guard'. Your player Jokic's passing accuracy, passing vision, passing IQ, mid-range shot, and foul drawing are all below 90. You have adjusted Training plan, your player Jokic’s all attributes are +3.”
Nikola Jokic
Favorability towards you: 85 (Thank you very much for your trust. The No. 1 pick is exciting.)
Mood: Excited, peaceful (Will I be the starter in the next game? I want Coach D to trust me, but...it is difficult for me to convince Coach D to trust me, be prepared to be a substitute, be ready to play at any time, and believe in the process, I also believe in the results, I am no worse than anyone else.)
Overall rating: 83
Potential: 97
Offensive attributes: 75 for layups, 75 for behind-the-back jumpers, 75 for post-up hooks, 85 for post-up control, 81 for drawing fouls, 75 for close range shots, 88 for mid-range shots, 70 for three-pointers, 75 for free throws, 65 for ball control, passing Ball IQ: 76, passing accuracy: 76, offensive rebounds: 65, in-situ dunk: 75, cut-in dunk: 60, shooting IQ: 85, passing vision 81, catching ability: 85
Defensive attributes: 78 defensive rebounds, 65 inside defense, 50 outside defense, 70 blocks, 40 steals, 65 shot interference

Mental attributes: Passing Insight 75, Defensive Stability 62, Help Defense IQ 60, Offensive Stability 78, Pick and Roll Defense IQ 85.
Durability: Overall durability 98.
Du Kang looked at Jokic's current attributes.
After two intensive training camps, Jokic's ability has improved by 2 points, and some attributes have also become better.
