Chapter 546 2014~2015 Season Training Camp (Second Update!)

Shaq's five big jitters are a good adjustment in training, but most of the time, Tang Tian's energy is put on the training of the back.

From the beginning of practice to the present, including the time during the trip to China, he has trained more than 5,000 times.

Thanks to his good waist strength, otherwise he would definitely be useless after practicing like this.

The advantage of this high-intensity training is that although he has not yet guaranteed a sufficient hit rate, his skills have come out.

Continue according to this intensity, just like the previous McGrady Ganba, it will be a matter of course when it is exchanged for Kobe to fall back.

At this time, there was only one week before the start of the training camp for the new season of the Pelicans, and Tang Tian also arrived at the arena ahead of time to start preparing for the training camp.

He is not the first to come. Both Davis and Holiday came early. These two guys were very unconvinced when they lost last season. They are holding back their energy and want to prove themselves in the new season.

Davis practiced low-post skills, and Holiday practiced three-pointers. Although there were few people, the training content was very targeted.

In addition to them, there is another person, the team general manager Dempsey also came.

He came to find Tang Tian.

"Jokic's buyout fee is 1 million, and his weight has reached 135 kilograms. Our initial plan is to let him stay in Serbia for another year and reduce his weight by the way."

In order to protect the interests of overseas teams, for overseas players who still have contracts, the upper limit of a team's buyout fee according to NBA rules is 500,000 US dollars, and the rest must be paid by the players themselves.

Some of the more well-known players in the NBA, Paul Gasol paid Barcelona a buyout fee of US$1.65 million at the beginning, and Rubio later delayed for a year because of a buyout fee of US$3 million Enter the NBA.

The most expensive is Mirotic, who landed on the Bulls this year, and he paid a full $3 million himself.

And the team is not allowed to offset this fee in any form, and will be severely punished if found.

"Jokic must come this season. The weight loss will be faster here (NBA). He will bring irreplaceable help to the team."

Tang Tian said firmly, he was busy with training and a trip to China before, but he didn't expect that Dempsey hadn't settled Jokic's matter yet.

"I'll go talk to him again."

Hearing the firmness in Tang Tian's tone, Dempsey changed his words.

"If he doesn't have money, I will pay. He must come this season."

Tang Tian emphasized it again, if Jokic still can't come after tossing for a long time, then it is really tossing around.

In addition to Jokic, there is also a guarantee contract signed about Aminu.

The Pelicans didn't make Aminu a priority for a contract extension, and Aminu also tested the waters of free agency.

As a result, he was almost ignored, and in the end the Pelicans signed him back with a two-year, 6 million contract with team options.

Not a bad deal.

Aminu failed to develop three-pointers last season, but if he can practice later, he is more than enough to play as a substitute in the third and fourth positions.

It's just that in this way, there are 15 people in the team's guaranteed contract. It is a bit difficult for Taylor Johnson to stay.

But this is the NBA, and even the 15th man is not so competitive.

The training camp is about to start, and the filming of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" will start in Los Angeles soon.

Tang Tian sent Olsen to the set.

In the crew, Tang Tian saw Yates again, and the two chatted for a while.

While chatting, he found someone looking at him, and turned around to notice that Watson was there too.

After Watson was discovered by Tang Tian, ​​he smiled at him, then turned around and walked away calmly.

"She's big on this sequel."

Yates opened his mouth to explain.

Tang Tian nodded without thinking too much.

After returning from the crew, the training camp of the Pelicans has officially started.

Holiday, Tang Tian, ​​Ariza, Davis, Whiteside;

Cole, Gordon, Morrow, Aminu, Teletovic, Jokic;

Dinwiddie, Evans, Jeff Vichy, Sheved, Taylor Johnson, Metta World Peace, Patrick Young;

15 guaranteed contracts plus 3 non-guaranteed contracts, a total of 18 people all appeared in the training camp.

The loss of last season made the players feel unwilling, and they all look forward to a comeback in the new season.

Also in the training camp, Tang Tian met several new players of the team.

Ariza seemed to be very introverted, but when he saw Tang Tian, ​​he took the initiative to speak.

And the content of the chat is Kobe.

Ariza seemed to be the typical problem player in high school and college, and even in the NBA, lazy training, stubborn temper, and contradicting coaches...

If it weren't for his outstanding physical talent, it would be difficult to survive in the NBA.

And it was Kobe who made him change.

When he was playing for the Lakers, Ariza worshiped Kobe as his teacher. Kobe gave him a set of methods to improve his long-range shots and taught him how to become a professional player.

After staying with the Lakers for two years, he has completely changed. He is positive about training and his attitude towards the game has completely changed.

This also made him from a problem player to a top 3D player.

Ariza knew that Tang Tian and Kobe had a good relationship, which brought them closer.

Dinwiddie, looking very humble, took the initiative to open the door for his teammates, and also offered to help buy donuts and carry bags for everyone.

This guy is the type of player that people are comfortable with.

Regardless of whether he can play in the future, this kind of player will not be bad in the team's popularity.

Teletovic, this is a player with a standard European white personality, loves to laugh, is good at communicating, and seamlessly connects with the team.

Jokic and Demps are mediocre in other aspects, but they are indeed efficient.

When the training camp opened, Jokic also came.

He is white and fat now, looking like a moving tower of meat, which is exactly the same as when Gasol came to the NBA.

He is also from Europe, but he is much shy compared to Teletovic, like a big boy.

"Don, thank you, Mr. Dempsey told me that you are willing to help me buy out."

As soon as Jokic came up, he looked for Tang Tian shyly.

Tang Tian smiled and reached out to stroke Jokic's head.

Dempsey's words are quite appropriate, which means that he has accepted his younger brother in advance.

Jokic smiled and didn't hide.

Tang Tian felt joy in his heart.

Davis stopped touching his head after listening to Gordon's words last season. This newcomer Jokic has topped this gap!

The players were chatting in the locker room, and the door was pushed open after a while.

The team's head coach Williams and assistant coach Borrego are here.

"Guys, our goal for the new season is the championship, let's get started!"

Williams was full of pride when he came up, and said directly to the players.

Last season, the Pelicans and the Grizzlies played a tiebreaker, while the Grizzlies and the Spurs played a tiebreaker. The Spurs lost to the Heat 2-4.

Judging from the results of the matchup and their reinforcements during the offseason, the championship this season is their goal!

Thank you 1025 Long 1025 for your reward.
