Violent striker

Stockton walked out of the training hall, but Yang Mo slowly squatted down, spread his hands, stared intently, and muttered: strength?finger strength?

While muttering, Yang Mo flicked his fingers slowly, looked at every muscle involved in the fingers, and felt the force that could be pulled out with each flick.In the experience again and again, Yang Mo felt as if he had discovered some trick, so he quickly grabbed the tennis ball and passed the ball... Bang bang bang bang bang!

Not surprisingly, it was lost again.

It seems that Yang Mo still failed to control his sudden surge of power.In terms of the detailed power of passing, he couldn't grasp it accurately at all.Coupled with the fact that he has never systematically practiced passing the ball before, this has led to such a bad situation for him now.

This time the pass did not annoy Yang Mo too much, but continued to squat down to test the strength division on the palm.He can now understand why Stockton asked him to practice passing tennis. This is to exercise his control over the power of his palm. Only when he has mastered this power can he talk about passing.After all, passing the ball is a precise technique, and a slight difference may be a mistake.

After fumbling for a while, Yang Mo continued to practice.It's a pity that the effect was minimal, until his teammates came together, he could occasionally pass a tennis ball, which was far from Stockton's two goals.

Yang Mo concentrated on practicing all morning. In the afternoon, three players did not show up in the training hall.Because they were traded, the trade was Harrington, Jordan Hill.Chris Duhon.

Yang Mo didn't pay too much attention to this news, it was what he had expected.The other players have no extra thoughts other than seeing off. After all, this is a commercial league. When the trading window opens, anyone may be traded, and maybe they will be the next one.So instead of worrying about others, think about yourself.

In the afternoon, Yang Mo finally mastered some skills.He started to be able to throw in one of each pass steadily, and when it was almost four o'clock, he finally managed to throw in two goals.Sometimes even throw in three.

This was a great surprise for him, he even jumped a few times excitedly, feeling more refreshed than winning a lore.

Stockton, however, wasn't too excited to test out the results of his training.Not even a smile on his face.He just said plainly: "Well, don't practice any more today. It won't do you any good to continue practicing. Take a good rest and apply ice cubes to your arms. Don't wait until tomorrow and you won't be able to lift them."

Stockton left after saying this, without expressing any personal emotions about Yang Mo's training results.

This frustrated Yang Mo, he thought he would be rewarded.But actually no.

Fortunately, this frustration didn't last long. After half an hour of extra practice, he went to the locker room to find some ice cubes and started to compress.while he was cold compressing.Nate Robinson came over with some disinterest, and he said slowly: "Yang, do you not like me?"

"Huh?" Yang Mo frowned and looked up, he felt very strange about this question.

"My agent told me that I might be traded to Boston during the All-Star Game, and he made me ready to move at any time." Nate Robinson said with particular frustration.

"Going to Boston?" Yang Mo was a little surprised. Although he had seen Nate Robinson's name on Isiah Thomas's trade list before, he was planning to trade him to Golden State at that time, but he didn't expect to change it to Boston now. up.

"Don't you know?" Nate Robinson asked somewhat unexpectedly: "Didn't it mean that all transactions require you to nod before they can be executed?"

"I really don't know that you will be traded to Boston, but maybe changing the environment is not necessarily better for you. The Celtics are a championship-level team, and you will have a good time going there. Play it." Yang Mo tried his best to comfort him.

"But I don't want to leave New York at all. I think it's better if I fight with you. I might not even get playing time if I go to Boston." Robinson looked very depressed, without any confidence.

"This..." Yang Mo really didn't know what to say, because to him, although this guy is a master of chaos, but... is also a double-edged sword. He is a player who needs the ball to play, and His size makes his defense a tragedy.Although it is possible that one night he can bring you [-] plus data, and even turn the tide to save the team.However, on more nights, he played the role of disrupting the team's rhythm.

So, for Yang Mo, if trading him can get a better defensive player, why say-no?

Seeing that Yang Mo hesitated, Robinson stopped talking, he knew that the deal was inevitable.So, he turned around and silently packed his things, carefully, and even tore off all the photos on the locker.

Seeing him like this, Yang Mo felt a little sentimental. After all, they had been together for so long, and they were somewhat reluctant to be separated suddenly.

But, it can only be like this.This is the cruelty of competitive sports and the nature of commercial leagues. Any player is a tradable item.

Robinson packed up his things and walked out of the locker room silently.

As soon as he walked out, Isiah Thomas walked in with a list. As soon as he came in, he handed the list to Yang Mo, and then said in a reporting tone: "Yang, we just finalized three deals, take a look. .”

Yang Mo glanced at it, and the first one was the three-party deal that had been executed in the morning. The Knicks offered Jordan Hill, Chris Duhon and Harrington in exchange for McGrady and a draft pick.This deal is undoubtedly wonderful, because except for Jordan Hill who can provide some playing time, the other two players have basically never played, and their roles are either overlapped or frozen by Yang Mo.The arrival of McGrady will undoubtedly enrich the team's tactical play, and most importantly, it will clear the salary space for the summer.

After reading the first tranche, Yang Mo glanced at the second tranche. Nate Robinson plus the 10-year second-round pick was traded for Eddie House and Bill Walker.

Yang Mo pondered for a while, Bill Walker is a rookie and hasn't played much, so it's basically a no-brainer.And Eddie House is a well-known bench gangster. Although he is older than Robinson, his organizational skills are much stronger than him, and he is also a guy who can provide energy for the team as soon as he plays, although he is not tall.The deal is generally sound.

Then, Yang Mo looked at the third deal, trading David Lee to Golden State in exchange for Turiaf and Anthony Randolph.

Behind David Lee's name, Isiah Thomas notes an expiring contract.

Obviously, from the book point of view of this deal, the Knicks lost money, and David Lee is also a 15+10 player anyway.Anthony Randolph and Turiaf add up to this statistic, but according to David Lee's urgency, he will definitely ask for a big contract when his contract expires, and he still has a relationship with Yang Mo, so he will change jobs when the time comes Not necessarily.It's better to trade him while he is still in the contract period, and he can get back two usable players.

Turiaf's tough style of play meets Stein's tactical requirements.As for Anthony Randolph, although he had conflicts with Yang Mo in his rookie season, he is still a potential insider. Although he is thinner, his explosive power is not bad.If you are well trained, you can also become a good blue-collar worker.

"This deal with Jinzhou depends on whether we can get another guard from Old Nelson." Yang Mo pointed to the name on it and said slowly.

"Well, old Nelson is too shrewd, I'm afraid there is no way, unless we get another player." Thomas replied with a smile.

"Alright, I agree to these transactions, you go and execute them." Yang Mo nodded and agreed.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with Coach Stein again. If there is no problem, all transactions will be completed during the All-Star Game." Isiah Thomas nodded and walked out of the locker room.

Yang Mo applied the cold compress for a while, then turned around and went home.

On the way home, Yang Mo also carefully thought about the next lineup. Generally speaking, the defense was stronger, but he didn't know what the chemical reaction would be.What Yang Mo is particularly worried about is whether McGrady can adapt to the role of a supporting role. What if he comes over and insists on playing with himself as the core?

Yang Mo's worry is not unreasonable. After all, McGrady has almost been a core role for so many years, and suddenly becomes a supporting role. I don't know if he can adapt.

Yang Mo returned home worried, and found that there was no one in the house, so he turned on the TV when he had nothing to do, and when he turned on the TV, he subconsciously switched to the sports channel.After looking at it, I found that it was a scene of a reporter interviewing McGrady at the New York airport. Although McGrady on TV had gained half a circle of weight, he was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Um... I'm ready to help super-yang. Now is the age of young people, I will try to reduce playing time, after all, my injury has not recovered to [-]%." ​​McGrady was very kind when facing the reporter speech.

At this time, the reporter hurriedly asked: "So, do you think you can lead the team to the playoffs?"

"I'm very confident about this." Tracy McGrady said confidently, "I'm here for the playoffs."

"Do you think the relationship between you and super-yang can be handled well? He is a well-known difficult player in the league." The reporter finally threw out a targeted question.

When McGrady heard this, he hesitated a little, then smiled and said: "I have rich experience in communicating with Chinese players, I believe I can definitely handle him..."

When he said this, Yang Mo directly turned off the TV. He felt that things were a little tricky.
