Chapter 233 Little Jordan, you come first!
After Ye Hao communicated with Presti, he plunged into the stadium and started hard training to prepare for the new season.
As for the transaction, leave it to Presti.
Now the Thunder team is dominated by new players, most of them are rookie contracts, and the contract amount is not high.
These players have not reached the time to ask for a maximum salary or a high salary extension, so the Thunder can be very flexible in terms of salary space.
For the time being, Presti will not face the difficult problem of who to choose to renew the contract and who to give up like in his previous life.
Moreover, they can still enjoy this rookie salary bonus period for many years. In the next two or three years, they should not encounter the problem of salary exceeding the luxury line.
And the deal can't be concluded immediately, he just needs to wait patiently.
As soon as Ye Hao walked into the training hall, Durant came over, "Ye, some rookies want to see your skills, if you don't show them your skills, I'm afraid they won't be convinced."
When Ye Hao saw him winking, he knew that he wanted to deliberately pick things up, not only wanted to use this to tease the rookie, but also wanted to see what level Ye Hao had reached after a summer.
Ye Hao smiled and said, "Is it because KD hasn't abused me for a summer, and the skin is itchy? Why don't you come and pick it with me first? It's just good for warming up."
Durant quickly waved his hand in denial, "No, no, this is indeed what rookies and rookies think, I just help them out, hehehe..."
He paused and then suggested: "I think they just need to clean up, you have to kill their arrogance."
Ye Hao said: "Let me see the results of your summer special training first.
Don't you guys spend the whole summer flirting with girls on twitter and neglect your football training, if that's the case, I'll definitely kick your ass hard. "
Durant shook his head, "That's absolutely not the case, let me tell you, I practiced really hard.
When you left the United States and returned to China to participate in the Olympics, you asked me to practice my shooting. I have been practicing more.
Now my shooting is definitely on a higher level, and the shooting percentage will surprise you.
You'll know later, I'm going to single you out now, and I can beat you with an easy jump shot on the spot. "
Ye Hao couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha, I really hope you can do it.
You know what our goals are for this season, right? "
Durant guessed and said, "Into the playoffs?"
Ye Hao couldn't help kicking him, and cursed, "We made it to the Western Conference finals last season, and now you're going backwards? You're going back as you live!"
Durant jumped sideways, "Is that still the Western Conference Finals?"
"Crack! You're really worthless!" Ye Hao shook his head and walked forward.
"No way, our goal this season is the finals?" Durant hurriedly followed up and said in surprise, "But I feel that our strength has not yet reached this stage."
Ye Hao ignored him, walked to a seated chest press trainer and sat down to practice.
"It can't really be the finals, right? We are in the crazy west! In addition to other strong teams in the west, there are also the defending champion Lakers. If you want to enter the finals, you must at least cross the Lakers. Close it. This is too difficult." Durant sat down beside him and continued.
Ye Hao shook his head, and said slowly, "It's not the final, but the championship..."
This made Durant jump up all of a sudden, and said loudly: "How is this possible, so many rookies on our team! This is almost impossible!"
Ye Hao didn't stop what he was doing, and said while training, "So, do you think that before our Huaxia team beat the US team to win the Olympic gold medal, does anyone think we can do it?"
"Then...of course not..."
"Then before we make it to the playoffs and all the way to the Western Conference finals, does anyone think we can do it?" Ye Hao continued to ask.
Durant froze for a moment, and couldn't help shaking his head, "No!"
Ye Hao smiled, "And these things really happened. So, what else is impossible? Everything is possible."
"But, but..." Durant opened his mouth, still feeling that it would be impossible for the team to compete for the championship in the new season, and it would be incredible.
"I know what you think in your heart. Don't you just think that we are actually quite weak? We are all rookies, and other teams are quite strong. So you think it is impossible for us to do it." Ye Hao paused For a moment, I thought about what kind of wording I should use.
That's right, since the end of the Western Conference Finals, he has set his goal for the new season on the championship.
And to win the NBA championship trophy, he alone cannot do it, and he needs to get support from his teammates.
The NBA championship is not just one game, it needs to win four games in a series.
And for a team to reach the finals, it has to go through several tests in the first round, the second round, and the east-west finals. Under such a competition system, winning the championship is almost no fluke.
This is different from the single-game system after the Olympic group stage. The Olympic Games may rely on a single person's single-game runaway to win the opponent and win the game.
But in the NBA playoffs, it is very difficult for a player to run wild every game and play at a super-class level in a series under the repeated research of the opponent's coaching staff and scouting team.
So if Ye Hao wants to win the championship, it is not enough for him alone to desire and pursue the goal of the championship. He must also let his teammates recognize this goal and follow him to pursue this goal.
And Durant will be his number one assistant, so persuading Durant is extremely important.
He thought for a while and said, "Let's put it this way. Last season, we both reached the Western Conference Finals with the same lineup. This season, both of us have become stronger than last season, and the teammates around us will also be stronger than last season." better.
Now, isn't it a matter of course to advance to the finals?
Why is it still impossible? "
"But, but, we only picked a few rookies this year. Can we expect them to be of great use? Besides, we haven't seen any other reinforcements in our lineup." Durant argued.
"Don't look down on rookies. Last season, we were also rookies? Didn't we also lead the team to the Western Conference Finals? Don't look down on rookies." Ye Hao replied.
"It's different. Rookies are different from rookies. We're both top-[-] draft picks, real talents."
Ye Hao heard Durant's implication, that is, the team's rookies are late in the draft and cannot be counted on immediately. He couldn't help smiling, "When the new season starts, you will know that these rookies Whether it works or not, they may surprise you."
Then he went on to say, "Let's not talk about what will happen to the rookies. Our team's lineup has gone through a season of running-in, and the chemical reaction is also possible. In the new season, the team will continue to strengthen in weak positions.
So in the new season, we are definitely stronger than last season. We were able to play so many games with the Lakers last season.
There's no reason why it can't be done this season.
Failure to do so is failure.
You don't want to be a failure, do you? KD. "
"Of course not! How is it possible!" Durant shook his head.
"Then work hard, in the new season, head towards the championship!" Ye Hao said firmly.
"But I still feel a little vain." Durant said with a wry smile.
"Don't be stupid, when you are weak, think of Scarlett, think of the smell of Scarlett's bath water, and you will be excited." Ye Hao joked.
Durant stared, "Hey, don't say it, as long as I think of this, I'm not in vain, and I'm down-to-earth, excited, and full of energy!"
Ye Hao really didn't expect that he said a lot of truth, but in the end it was not as effective as Scarlett's bath water.
This matter... tell him where to reason.
Still, it works.
"So, now you know that our goal for the new season is the championship? Keep this in your heart and never forget it." Ye Hao said.
Durant nodded excitedly, and said loudly: "I know! Mother Gant's championship is just like Scarlett Gantt! Vigorous! I want the championship! I want Scarlett!"
When Ye Hao came out of the gym and went to the arena to practice with the ball, Jordan, Ibaka and other rookies really came up and said that they wanted to see the boss's skills and exchange ideas.
I don't know if it was the rookies' real thoughts, or the rookies had to come because of the special drive of the old rookie Duran.
However, Ye Hao would not refuse. As a ball monster, how could he be afraid of challenges, but wished for more challenges.
Now, these rookies don't know the horror of the ball devil, and I'm afraid they will cry in the future.
This can be seen from the malicious smiles on the faces of the old players of the Thunder team around. Last season, they were really tortured by Ye Hao's heads-up, and now a newcomer finally entered. The team came and took it on their behalf.
Ye Hao stood on the court, smiled and tickled the four rookies Jordan, Ibaka, George Hill and Dragic and said, "Then come on, which one of you will go first?"
He had already made up his mind in his heart, and just took this opportunity to touch the background of these guys and sharpen their minds, let them know how good they are, and let them know who is the real boss of this team guy.
After all, a strong player on the court is not seen from the sidelines, but must be fought on the court to rush out.
The court is not deceiving. Whether a player has the strength or not can be seen at a glance when he is on the court.
Several rookies looked at each other, no one wanted to go first, they had all watched Ye Hao's game.
Ye Hao pointed at Little Qiaodan, "Andre, you come first! Don't be a mother-in-law, act like a woman!"
Little Jordan couldn't shirk, so he had to come on the court.
"I heard you thought you were going to be a top-[-] pick in the first round, right?
You're not happy with your current pick, are you?
Then show it to me,
Are you worthy of the current pick?
It should still fall further behind. "Ye Hao gave the racket to Jordan.
In his previous life, Ye Hao had read a report about Jordan.
It was mentioned in the report that Jordan was signed by the future Mavericks in the free market and wanted him to assist the team's super rookie Doncic.
But after he arrived at the team, he crowded out and discriminated against Doncic everywhere. Even under the eyes of team owner Cuban, he dared to bully Doncic.
During the time he played with Doncic, he could see his dissatisfaction with Doncic in almost every game.
The most obvious thing is that after he and Doncic picked and rolled, Doncic broke into the inside and was double-teamed. As long as he went down, he could receive Doncic's pass and score easily.
But almost every time he finished the pick-and-roll, he chose to stay put.
Is he equivalent to his own three-point shooter? If it doesn't go smoothly, is he still thinking about a shot at Nowitzki's golden rooster independence?
There are also many times when he holds the ball and Doncic takes the initiative to ask for the ball, he turns a blind eye and chooses to pass the ball to a teammate farther away, completely ignoring Doncic who ran out of position.
And his attitude on the defensive end is not positive.
However, it is very active to compete with Doncic for rebounds. There was a Mavericks home game, and Doncic received a backcourt rebound. At this time, Doncic did not have any opponents.
At this time, Jordan, who was far away from Doncic, ran over and snatched the rebound from Doncic.
It's not counting grabbing a rebound. When Jordan was still falling, he pushed Doncic directly.
Cuban, who was watching the game from the sidelines, looked dazed.
Maybe Jordan still thinks that he is the "Joe Shouxin" who can play Cuban a few years ago. He thinks that Cuban let himself be the boss of the team instead of supporting the rookie Doncic.
From this report, Ye Hao could see that Jordan was a rebellious guy, and he had to be educated hard to convince him.
Otherwise, I really don't know what kind of moths Jordan will make in the team as the season progresses.
Jordan took the ball from Ye Hao, "Do you want me to attack first?"
Ye Hao nodded, "That's right, rookie! Be good, or I'll let you buy donuts for a whole season! And I'll designate a shop far away, let you run over and buy them for a limited time return."
Little Jordan couldn't help shivering. He didn't want to run to buy donuts. He would rather carry a pink Hello Kitty schoolbag than go buy donuts.
This makes rookies carry pink children's schoolbags, which is already a common way for NBA veterans to trick rookies.
Little Jordan naturally understands this.
He got the ball out of the three-point line, ready to attack.
Ye Hao waved his hand, "Rookie, let you attack from outside the three-point line, you have no chance of defeating me. Come back, I will let you attack inside, and see how much weight you have."
Little Qiaodan was shocked, and Ye Hao was singled out, and he directly made himself attack in the paint?Then I can definitely win. With my body tonnage and inside skills, the inside is my territory, can I still win?
Ye Hao is too arrogant!
