Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 143 Roger's Trial Training
"The loss of the alliance?" Anthony looked at Andrews suspiciously.

Andrews nodded, and said: "Yes, many people have already begun to settle the account. After Jordan retired in 99, the entire league lost nearly one billion yuan in that season. There must be previous experience and lessons. This time The league should be more mentally prepared."

Anthony shook his head: "I still don't understand what you mean."

Andrews turned his head and said in a low voice, "The alliance intends to train you to become the next spokesperson for the alliance."

Anthony was shocked when he heard the words, retracted his body, and said in surprise: "You mean Stern today?"

Andrews smiled and nodded: "Although many things in the league need to be decided by the boss through consensus, but this is the only major event that he, as the president of the league, has played a big role in promoting."

Andrews got excited while talking: "Jordan's retirement, the league is already prepared for a big loss, but they certainly can't just sit around like this, making stars is imperative, I guess they had great intentions It is to prepare to create LeBron, after all, he is a high school student, and he has hidden nearly [-] million endorsement contracts as soon as he entered the league, and his skills have never been more comprehensive."

"However..." Andrews changed the subject, "Melo, your strong change seems to have shaken the determination of those high-ranking officials in the league. You broke records one after another in the first month as a rookie, and the team's record is also high. It’s a level better than the Cavaliers. It can be said that you are crushing LeBron in all aspects and the league will definitely find you.”

"The best rookie of the month is just the smallest award. The league doesn't just want to give you an award, but also wants to imply that it intends to train you to become the spokesperson for the next generation of the league. Today Stern greeted you and gave you the award himself. , It has already explained the matter." Andrews finally said in conclusion.

"Then let me help them make more money." Anthony took the words.

"Yes, this is an alliance of merchants, and everything depends on money. Of course, money is something that both you and I need." Andrews said with a smile.

Anthony smiled and nodded.

At this moment, the stewardess of the plane brought drinks to the two. After Andrews took it with a smile, he thanked the stewardess, then turned around and continued: "But don't take it lightly, because this kind of thing is definitely going to happen." It takes a process to decide, at least one or two seasons, as long as four or five years is possible, when you are really determined to help you become a spokesperson, then the money is just a number."

Anthony nodded: "I understand that."

Andrews put a drink to Anthony's hand, and said self-deprecatingly: "I'm still being overwhelmed. Which contract you will choose already shows that you are a person who will not take it lightly."

Anthony smiled and said nothing, took a sip of the drink.

Andrews also took a sip of his drink, and then suddenly remembered something: "Melo, don't think I'm talkative, and you should pay attention to your life. I saw the slanderous comments made by the woman named Lima before. I know that some things may be misunderstandings, but this kind of news will have a great impact on your image, the more famous you are, the more you should pay attention to your behavior, do you understand?"

Anthony nodded, thinking of meeting Lima in the morning, he only hoped that after the words in the morning, Lima could really retreat in spite of the difficulties.

The plane flew for nearly two hours before returning to Denver. Because the plane was turned off, Anthony did not turn it on until he got off the plane. At this moment, he found out that Fox had sent him a text message, saying that he was going to shoot a drama in advance. Already left the villa early.

Anthony shook his head in disappointment, and after sending a text message to remind her to pay attention to rest, he took a taxi back to the villa.

Although the journey was tiring, Fox left, and he had nothing to do in the afternoon. Thinking that he had wasted the morning training, Anthony felt an inexplicable sense of urgency, and then drove directly to the arena.

When he arrived at the arena, he had just parked his car in the garage. When he was going up from the underground garage, he accidentally ran into two people: White and Roger.

White and Roger were jostling and shoving each other, but when they saw Anthony, they immediately greeted each other excitedly.

When Anthony saw Roger suddenly appearing in the arena, he also guessed roughly, and asked, "Rodney, are you bringing Kyrie to try out?"

White nodded after hearing the words: "Yes, after what happened in the park last time, I went to the team to help Carey submit a trial training application, and I applied for a combo guard. I didn't expect the team to hear that it was a combo guard." Neng Wei, I will arrange a trial training opportunity soon."

The team is short of guards, Anthony of course knows this, which is why he let Roger come over for a trial training.

"Well, let's go up together. Originally, I was going to practice today. Since Kyrie is going to have a trial training, I'll take a look at it first." Anthony said, turning to Roger and said, "This is an opportunity, you have to take good care of it." which performed."

Roger nodded vigorously. He naturally saw that Anthony intended to help him. He can be said to be very grateful to Anthony now.

"Okay, let's go up together, it's getting late." Anthony said and walked to the elevator.

When Roger and White saw Anthony leaving, they hurried to follow.

When we arrived at the arena, Cooper and D'Antoni were there, as well as a physical trainer, and even a few news media on the sidelines. The lineup was relatively large.

Although Anthony has not experienced trial training, Carmelo Anthony's memory is still related to the trial training in his mind, but he did not expect Roger, an ordinary player, to have a trial training with the media on the side. He is also a little strange.

"Hey, Mello, why are you here?" D'Antoni saw Roger and Anthony walking together, and there was a doubt in his eyes.

"Hey, Mike, I was going to come here to practice, and it happened that White brought someone to try out, so I came up with him." Anthony did not explain the information he and Roger knew when he spoke. Although the choice of the coaches will not be changed because of what he said, it is hard to say that it will have an impact in the end. If Roger is chosen because of this, it may not be a good thing for Roger.

"Well, just come and give me a reference. There are several people in the trial training today." Anthony said and pointed to the locker room, "Kyrie, you should go to the locker room to change your uniform."

Roger nodded slightly excitedly, and then headed towards the arena.

Anthony also stopped by to change clothes together, and walked there with Roger.

Entering the channel, D'Antoni guessed that D'Antoni behind him couldn't hear him, so Anthony said: "You have to maintain your mentality and don't be nervous. The team now lacks a third point guard. I believe you can do it."

When Roger heard what Anthony said, his face turned red, and he seemed extremely excited. To talk about the fact that Anthony pretended to be a grandfather and was provoked by him before, White had already told him. He originally thought that this time it was a bridge with Anthony. No, I didn't expect that Anthony would take the initiative to help him at this moment. His understanding of Anthony has also improved to a new level in an instant. Anthony's heart and approach are all to make him completely admire him.

"Okay, I'm going over there to change. You can go with the others after changing your clothes." Anthony said and walked towards the locker room dedicated to Nuggets players.

As for Roger, they have a locker room that is temporarily open, and naturally they will not change clothes in the same place as Anthony, so they will not leave together.

When Anthony came out after changing his clothes, he looked in the aisle. The room marked "Temporary Changing Room" was empty and deserted. Presumably Roger and the others should have gone out, so he followed suit.

After exiting the passageway and looking outside, there were ten players standing on the court at this time. The advantage of the big team was beyond Anthony's expectations, but he also understood that the reason for the media's visit was to estimate the Nuggets. There have been frequent transactions recently, and this is considered to be the first trial training for free agents since the start of the game. It is no wonder that so many people have come.

Anthony smiled, and then found a bench on the sidelines to sit on.

After White saw Anthony sitting down, he also walked quickly to sit next to him.

"Melo, Kyrie should be fine today." White asked with concern as soon as he sat down. Judging by his appearance, he must be happy to be able to play with Roger.

"This depends on his own performance, and I can't say for sure." Anthony didn't talk nonsense.

White nodded. He originally said to let Anthony go to D'Antoni's ear to blow the wind. After seeing him say that, he didn't say any more, and looked at the field.

At this moment, he found a more familiar figure, frowned, pointed to the center of the field with his hand, and said, "Melo, that player, wasn't he one of the few NBDL players I met in the park the other day?" ?”

Hearing what White said, Anthony also looked at the field, and after a while he found that the person he was referring to was indeed one of the five people who played with him that day. guard.

"The opportunity for trial training is not difficult. I think he should have a good grasp of Kyrie's matchup." Anthony said.

"That guy, Carey will definitely be able to blow him up!" White said with great certainty.

While Anthony and White were talking, workouts on the court had begun.

The content of each team's trial training is different, but the general routine should not be much different. Shooting and dribbling are essential.

At this point, those players began their initial shooting workouts under Cooper's guidance.
