Looking at Ahmed beside him and the friends in front of him, Aldon could not help but think of Wallace again in his mind.
He knew that Wallace would definitely not give up. This matter would not end so easily, and he could not get rid of all the influences of his childhood in a short time; but he gradually felt at ease, because he clearly realized that He belongs here, he belongs to football and the San Francisco 49ers. Here, he once again found himself, the self who is simply happy because of football.
In the end, Aldon came back, and the team opened its arms to welcome his return.
At this time, Lu Ke just hung up the phone, returned to the room, and said in a loud voice, "Hey, now we can prepare for the collective tactical meeting. I'll call to make a reservation for lunch. We can treat it like watching a movie for a while. Let’s watch the game video while having lunch, what do you think?”
Sure enough, it was Lu Ke who used the game video as a movie. This is probably the only one in the league. Although the players in the hall have long been used to it, they still rolled their eyes and complained.
But Lu Ke didn't care at all, and still said those "tragic" words as a matter of course, "There was also the question and answer session after watching the game video. I was also full of doubts about some of the defensive team's tactical choices. I hope to be eager to learn." Be open-minded and learn something new from our teammates on the defensive team. A little bit looking forward to it.”
Seeing Lu Ke gearing up, the players on the offensive team looked at the players on the defensive team and started to laugh happily, as if they could already foresee the opponent's journey to hell.
"By the way, I just had a phone call with the team. At the end of the season, we still need to control our weight. We can't eat junk food, but we can take carbohydrates, corn and potatoes as our staple food for lunch, and then we need to control the fat, 150 grams, I thought. Instead of eating chicken breast today, let’s switch to steak, shall we? And pair it with broccoli and avocado? I generally need to reduce food by one-third on rest days. Don’t empty out my refrigerator. I’ll weigh myself on Thursday. When the time comes, Walter is going to settle accounts with me.”
There was a lot of complaining in the living room. The diet control at the end of the season was always full of challenges and could be called torture. But Lu Ke ignored it at all. He took the phone and was about to turn around and leave. At this time, he saw Aldon out of the corner of his eyes. Then he took the initiative to greet him, "Hey, why did you think of coming here? There are no rules here. It's basically a team training base. But the relevant regulations are about ten times stricter than the team's. You can do whatever you want. .”
ten times……?
Seeing Lu Ke speaking seriously and terrifyingly, Aldon adapted without any barriers.
Lu Ke nodded to Ahmed and said, "Ask Aldon to help prepare for the tactical meeting. This gentleman has been absent from so many tactical meetings, and now he needs to do his best." After saying that, Lu Ke turned around and left with his cell phone. Well, booking lunch for a group of strong men is not an easy task.
Lu Ke did not treat Aldong as an outsider. Those who should complain were still complaining, and those who should be used were still used. Without any time difference or distance difference, Aldong felt that he had never left the team. He had always been like this. As a member of a team, after briefly losing his way, he found his home again.
Everyone in the entire living room began to get busy one after another. Although they complained constantly, they did not slack off in actual actions.
Facing Willis' injury, the reason why they are gathered here is to prepare for the last two games of the regular season and the full sprint in the playoffs, right? For Willis, for Ryan, for the team and their own glory, they must unite to face the challenge!
And Aldon is one of them.
This thought made Ardon gradually lighten up and said proactively, "Ahmed, what do I need to do?"
…
Willis appeared on the court at the Candlestick Park training base again on Thursday.
After the press conference at the entrance of the hospital and the official media day on Wednesday, the noise of reporters has calmed down.
As mentioned before, there are more than 2,000 professional players in the entire league, and players suffer from injuries almost every day. Not only during the game, but also on the training field and even in daily life, injuries are common. For one thing, Willis is not the first and will not be the last. After all, reporters' attention and discussion are still limited - the same was true when Lu Ke was injured before.
All the noise and turbulence has disappeared and the team is back on track again, starting to prepare for the next game.
Because it was too calm and too normal, as if nothing had happened, Willis was a little disappointed - he knew that the team had to get back on track, and it was impossible to delay the preparation process for his own sake; but looking at him, His absence seemed to have no impact on the scene, but the loneliness in his heart could not help but begin to surge up.
I even couldn't help but have a thought in my mind. If I choose to retire now, would it be okay? No one is indispensable. Even without yourself, the earth will still rotate and revolve normally, and the sun will still rise as usual, right? So, what is the meaning of his existence?
"Are you considering the possibility of retiring now?" A voice came from his ear, interrupting Willis's thoughts. He turned his head and looked over, and then saw Lu Ke, who was sweating profusely.
Willis subconsciously shook his head in denial, "How is that possible? Now that I have decided to move on, I will not give up."
Lu Ke wiped the sweat on his forehead with a towel. He did not refute Willis, but faced the training base. Looking at everyone who was busy, a big smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Don't tell Jim And other coaches: When I left the field injured, the team suffered three consecutive losses, and I was actually a little bit lucky."
"Because I am always worried, if the team can still operate normally without me, then will my existence be meaningless? If the team can still win under Colin's leadership, then will I really Take away Colin's career?" Lu Ke's words made Willis open his mouth, and then he saw Lu Ke laughing happily, "I know this idea is ridiculous, but when you are injured, In this way, all negative dark thoughts are amplified, and then they begin to deny themselves.”
In fact, dark thoughts, this is the most terrifying thing during the injury, even more terrifying than the physical pain in the body.
Lu Ke has actually experienced it himself, so he can know what Willis is thinking. They all understand the truth, but the invasion of injuries can always easily disrupt their thoughts, and then everything changes from what it was before.
Willis fell silent.
"But I know, I'm not." Lu Ke didn't seem to notice Willis' silence, and continued, "I mean, I told myself this: I belong here! Even if the team won three consecutive victories, I will also use practical actions to prove that I deserve a place in the team.”
After a pause, Lu Ke changed the topic, "The defense team has been meeting in the past few days. How to deploy frontline pressure is the key issue now."
"We need more changes at the tactical level, can you believe it? We actually started to study the Seattle Seahawks' defensive team tape, especially last year's tape, how to use the tactical layout to change the rhythm of the front line pressure, you have to admit , they have their own ideas, and even if they cannot completely imitate and copy them, they do have many things to learn from.”
"Navoro and Aldon are helping Michael, Dan, Corey and Nick. Each of our defenses may need to distinguish tactics and make some adjustments. Corey and Nick are physically strong enough, but their tactical understanding is His on-field reading ability is still too green; Dan’s experience is still not enough, but at least he won’t panic. We need different coordination to make up for the shortcomings.”
Michael Weiholt, Dan Skuta, Corey Lemonier and Nick Moody are all substitutes at linebacker.
Skuta was an undrafted rookie in 2009, Lemony was a third-round pick this year, and Moody was a sixth-round pick this year... Their individual strengths are still lacking, but Weihout, an undrafted rookie in 2011, is After their outstanding performance in the first four weeks of the season, they are now able to take on more responsibilities; but now the team is already short of major generals and can only hope to make full use of every player and then complete the overall defense through tactical linkage.
Following Lu Ke's line of sight, Willis could see that the linebackers were constantly rehearsing tactical changes. It was obvious that the three players Navolo, Aldon and Ahmed had been disrupted. Demonstrating different tactical needs, I still hope to find a better combination - in other words, Willis's absence has indeed had an impact, and it is definitely not as calm as it seems on the surface.
After realizing this, Willis couldn't help but laugh and turned to look at Lu Ke - this guy was so cunning and tried to comfort himself in a roundabout way, but he couldn't tell the truth, otherwise he would be embarrassed, and in the end he would just Can helplessly look away, pretending as if nothing had happened just now.
"I need to start rehabbing." Willis said without thinking. The team is actively working hard, and he must start working hard, otherwise he may really miss the playoffs. .
Lu Ke nodded in agreement, "Don't be too anxious, otherwise you may get half the result with twice the result. There are still two weeks until the end of the regular season, and we will not let down our guard. You can slowly adjust the pace and then catch up with us. Don't worry, you won't be fooled." Take it with you, we won’t run away like this.”
